QUALITY and quantity.
Cotton bids fair to bring a good
price this fall, but our farmers have it
, their power to regulate the price to
a large extent by their handling of
the ccpp.
The exhortations of The Standard
on this line last year, at the sugges
tion of Mr. C. W. Smith, one of the
most successful cotton-buyers in North
Georgia, accomplished a great deal of
good, and we wish to remind our farm
ers of the same facts in., due season
this year.
As Mr. .1. S. Stubbs, one of our most
prominent buyers, remarked the other
day, too much stress cannot be laid
upon this matter. Cedartown now has
three cotton factories, running day
and night, and all using none but the
highest grades of cotton, for which
they are willing to pay the highest
market price. For the lower grades
there is no local market, and they con
sequently command a much lower
proportionate price.
Every farmer can improve the grade
of his cotton by beeping it free from
trash, and picking and ginning when
dry. So many farmers are careless on
these points, and they invariably in
this way cut down the price and cut
off the profit of their crop.
A half-cent or a cent a pound often
represents the margin between profit
and loss for a farmer,and he can easily
place it on the profit side of his ac
count by using proper care in the
handling of his crop.
Cedartown is going to furnish the
best market in North Georgia again
this year for high grade cotton. See
that your cotton is properly cared for,
bring it to Cedartown, and get the
highest market price for it.

POhli'S WHEAT CROP.
Thk Standard a couple of weeks
ago published some eye-opening fig
ures as to the wheat Crops of this
vicinity, but there is an especial rea
son for getting the fullest possible re
ports as to the size of the crop.
There is only one way to do tins,and
that is through the co-operation of the
owners of threshing machines. We
would accordingly ask that they re
port either to Tbk Standard or to Mr.
John II. Phillips, one of our promi
nent farmers who is greatly interested
in wheat culture, the amount of wheal,
which goes through their machines
this season. They will find it. to their
interest to do this because of tile in
creased wheat acreage which will fol
low next year as a result.
The reason is this: The Alabama
and Georgia Iron Co., who own t he old
Cherokee mill,will change it to a roller
process mill of the latest and mpst
improved type if they can be shown
that the amount of wheat, raised in
l’olk will justify it. There has been
comparatively little wheat raised in
Ibis county until the past two years,
but the low price of cotton necessita
ted attent ion to other lines of farming,
and wheat cull nre has proved so profit
able that it has doubtless come to stay.
The changing of the old Cherokee to a
modern mill would encourage our
farmers to engage more extensively
than ever before in wheat-raising.
Mr. W. O. Cornelius, one of Polk’s
best farmers, raised 350 instead of 225
bushels, as reported two weeks ago, an
average of twenty bushels to the acre.
Some of his land . which had been
cleared fifty years averaged fifteen
bushels to tile acre.
Farmers will do well to urge the
threshing machine men to send in
their reports promptly, and the ma
chine men will certainly serve their
own interests by so doing.

The park project is moving along
with added impetus this week, the
ladies having taken the matter in hand
in good earnest.
And when Cedartown ladies take
hold of an enterprise its success is as
sured from the start.
The giving of an ice cream festival
at the park last Friday evening was an
inspiration, for it was not only a big
success financially bnt gave to many of
onr people new ideas as to the possi
bilities for park improvement. The
mere cutting of the grass and weeds
gave the place a park-like appearance,
and by the time the contemplated
fence, band pavilion and rustic bridges
are built, it will be one of jtlie prettiest
places in this section. The Baugh-
Zimmerman Band furnished the best
of music, and ice cream and lemonade
were served .to the large, crowds in
attendance.
The property around the Big Spring
has belonged to the city for several
years, but little has been done to
beautify it. .The work of individuals
in planting trees lias been ruthlessly
destroyed by two and four-legged ani
mals, and it has seemed impossible to
give the place any adornment until the
idea was suggested of pleasing the
property absolutely at a nominal sum
to an association of ladies for park
purposes for a long term of years.
This has been wisely done by the city
authorities, and the ladies of Cedar
town are now in full possession of this
property, with all its possibibtes for
beautifying.
The Ladies Park Association is well,
officered, as follows: President—Mrs.
W. C. Bunn; vice president—^Mrs. H.
L. Sewell; secretary—Mrs. E. B< Bus
sell; treasurer—Mrs. Wm. Parker.
The following committees have been
appointed to take charge of various
items of the work: —

Henderson, Misses Sallie Trimble,-
Martha Adams, Rena May Ledbetter,
Pauline Chapman, Maiie Stubbs, Mary
Barton, Fannie Lon Moore, Gussie
llouseal and Willie Wood.
Every lady in Cedartown is nrged to
enlist in the work of park adornment.
Every visitor to Cedartown is taken to
see our splendid Big Spring, and it will
be a good thing for Cedartown if they
can see a nice park as well.
The work of collecting subscriptions
and sebnring new one? is progressing
nicely. Col. C. P. Ball, the popular
general manager of the East & West, lias
forwarded to Mrs. Bunn, who is doing
snch excellent work as president, bis
check for $100 for the park, which iB
the largest single subscription yet re
ceived, and one for which the genial
Colonel has the thanks of the com
munity.
Every lady in the oity is asked to
contribute $1 toward the building of a
fence around the park, and there
should be a general response.
The park project is proving a. big
success—and YOU should help to make
it so.
All ladies interested in the movement
are urged to meet at the Booz House at
5 p. m. today to farther discuss the
plans for the park.
Cedartown bids the Rome District
Conference a hearty welcome for its
meeting here next- week.

The many Cedartown friends of Mr.
Wade W. Milam and family will regret
to learn of his death, which occurred
last week at his home in LaGrange.
Mr. Milam was City Recorder of
Cedartown for several years and was
generally liked here.
Elijah Clark,a negrorapistat Hunts
ville, Ala., was lynched Monday, after
a strong resistance on the part- of the
Sheriff. The negro confessed his guilt,
but said that as his victim was “only a
poor factory girl,” he didn’t think he
would be bothered about ft. The mob
showed him his mistake, however, in
an effective manner.
Something probably unprecedented
in the annals of history occurred Sun

Ailsie Prior, a colored woman 105
years old, was baptized by immersion.
Her great age seems to be well authen

is elsewhere recorded.
Tlie unanimous re-election of Hon
W. J. Neel, of Rome, as chairman of
the Democratic District Executive
Committee at the Congressional Con
vention in Calhoun last w r eek, was a
high and well deserved compliment to
a staunch and capable Democrat
Polk will be well represented on the
committee for another' two years by
one of her favorite sons, Hon. W. C
Bunn, and the selection could not be
improved upon.
A LECTURE COURSE.
It will be a Good One, and ihp Price
Within the Reach of All.
A good lecture course is of great,
value to a community, arid wherever
tried it- usually becomes a permanent
feature.
Cedartown will have one this fall
and winter—that is, she will if a'suffi
cient number of our people subscribe
season tickets to warrant engaging
the talent for the course.
Miss S. Gordon Williams, of At
lanta, has been in the city this week
representing the ' Alkahest Lyceum,
which presents a fine array of lecture
and concert attractions, which can be
secured in combination at*very* low
rates. A course of six to eight high
class entertainments is offered, the
number being determined by our
ability to secure Governor “Bob”
Taylor and General Gordon in the
course, r
The Chicago Glee Club, one of the
finest musicial aggregations on the
road, will be one of the attractions,
and would by itself command at least
75 cents a ticket here, just as any of
the other entertainments would cost
any one from 50 cents to $1 to attend.
Yet the ticket will cost only $2 for
the six or eight entertainments!
Who can afford to miss it.
Of course, those who do not buy
season tickets will have to pay the
usual 50 cents to $1 for single enter
tainments they may choose to attend.
A large number have already sub
scribed for season tickets, and those
who have not should call on Mr; J. W.
Barr, president of the local lyceum ;
Mr. R. O. Pitts, treasurer; or Mr.
E. B. Russell, secretary.
In order to secure the course, it will
be necessary to have the entire amount
subscribed in advance, so ail who are
interested should . come forward
promptly and help the good work
along.
As will be seen, this low.price for
season tickets means that you will get
these fine entertainments for about 25
cents a piece by buying season tickets.
The attractions will be selected
from the following: “Bob” Taylor,
Gen. Gordon, Chicago Glee Club; J.
DeWitt Miller, Ralph Bingham, tire
versatile entertainer; Mrs. Emma
Moffett Tyng with her illustrated
stereopticon lecture on travels; Edwin
L. Barker, monologuist; Alton Pack
ard, cartoonist: Hon. Luther Manship,
humorist lecturer, and others. Mrs.
Tyng’s stereopticon views arc secured
from abroad and are exceptionally fine.
The lecture course is a good tiling-
help it along!

THE WEEKLY PRESS.
Elberton covered herself with glory
in caring for the Weekly Press Asso
ciation at its meeting there last week,
and is the toast of Georgia quill-drivers.
After leaving Elberton the editorial
excursionists visited Toccoa and Tallu
lah Falls, and then went to Charles
ton, S. C-, where they have been taking
their “annual bath” at the Isle of
Palms..
Besides honoring Mr: W. S. Coleman
by aga-’n re-electing him as President,
the Association made him a present of
a purse of $50 as a token of their ap
preciation of his services. The Charles
ton News and Courier says of him:
“Mr. Walter Seott Coleman, who has
served as president for the past eight
years is enthusiastic over, the trip here.
He is held in great esteem by the mem
bers of the Association,and his services
are of snch value as to elect him presi
dent for the eighth consecutive time.
Mr. Coleman is one of the editors of
The Cedartown Standabd, a bright
weekly sheet. Ho is also State oil in
spector for'Cedartown and Rome. A
very gratifying thing to him, as well as
an unexpected one, was the gift of a
large purse from the members of the
Association,”

There is a well-defined movement
now on hand to organize' a military
company in Cedartown.
Anditwonid be in every way a good
thing for our growing city.
While all would hope that its useful
ness might be confined to parade and
holiday affairs, yet there is no telling
when its services might be required to
qnell some serions'distnrbance. Snch,
at least, has been the experience of
many of onr sister cities.
A number of onr young men are tak
ing an active interest in the . formation
of a company, and Col. J. C. Walker
recently wrote to Col. Phil G. Byrd,the
popular Acting Adjutant General,in re
ference to the matter, receiving the
following reply:—
Atlanta, Ga., July 17, 1900.
Mr. J. O. Walker, Cedartown, Ga.
Sir:—Replying to yonrs of the 10th
inst., . I have the honor to inform yon
that, under the law, there is now not a
vacancy in the infantry arm of the
Georgia State Troops. I regret this
very mnch, in one sense of the word,
for I have long desired to see a com
pany imbned with the life and energy
enjoyed by every individual and organ
ization which becomes an integral part
of Georgia’s “Iron City.”
In reply to questions asked, I make
the following statement:—First, Geor
gia, nader Goy. Candler’s administra
tion, supplies her State Troops with
• Forty new uniforms to a company. The
State also, for the first time, under
Governor Candler’s adihinstration al
lows each company organization for
armory rent and other company ex
penses the sum of $150 per annnm.
Second, the minimum number of en
listed men was,by act of the last Legis
lature, increased from Thirty-two to
Forty, making the company organiza
tion very mnoh stronger than ever be
fore in the history of the State.
While I see no prospect now of a va
cancy which will enable a company at
Cedartown to secure admission into the
State service, I would at the same time
advise you, if ^ on think it best to make
application for admission, filing in
this department yonr petition signed
by not less than forty men giving their
ages opposite their name. Shonld yon
file snch paper in this office I promise
you that it will he carefully considered
at the proper time. Yonr sincerely,
