Outlook In Morn Kiiootiriiglnx Than liver Before. Tho dairy outlook for 1000 id moro on* oonraging in Georgia than for any time in tho past and tlio-o now engaged in tho business may well outer upon the new season with moro than ordinary confidence. Never bofore has this state had moro enthusiastic men at tho foro- front of tho dairy interest. They nr* reaching out for now methods and bet* ter equipment in evory branch of thil great industry. Tho dairy herds nru being continually improved. It is true that there aro yet many poor cows found in tho dairy herds, hut tho day of the “scrub" cow is rapidly passing. Wo aro finding out that only tho best breeds art) worth the hooping, and Geor gia is how putting upon tho market Homo of tho best batter found in the United States. Wo wore gratified to learn nt tho rosont meeting of the Dairy men's association at GrLfiln that nil ex hibit of Georgia butter' won tho silvei medal in a contest with tho world’s but ter at tho Paris exposition. Tho buttoi/ was made at tho creamery in LaGraiigo. E::*Governor Hoard of Wisconsin, who has made dairying a lifo time business, was present nt tho GrilTln mooting, ami delighted his audience of more than fiOG dairymen from different sections of oui state, by saying, that ho could seo uc reason why Georgia should not forago K tho front of tho dairy statos of th< Union. If tho Georgia legislature will now givo the dairy moil an up-to-date votori- nary surgeon, and make provision foi tho enforcement of tho dairy laws now on tho statute books against the manu facture of Inigus butter, wo see no rea son why Goorgia may not within the noxt decade make long strides toward tho fulfillment of Governor Hoard’s pro- diotioB. — State Agricultural Depart ment. i EXECUTORS’ SALE.
