IT COULD BE WORSE
Agricultural interests in this part of
the state have had a backset in the
past few' weeks, due to the excessive
rains. Heretofore the season has been
favorable, except for the drought
W’hlch had hurt some few crops. The
loss in watermelons aud cantaloupes
is going to be material, without doubt,
but u'e haven't lost the crop by any
means and indications point to a fairly
good yield with fair prices. 1
By comparison with North Georgia,
wj are in clover. Those wiio have
visited some sections of the northern
part of the state say that it has rained
for four months and that the farmers
haven’t been able, in many counties,
to even plant their corn, up to the
first of June. Cotton is not growfng
well and was planted so late that it is
expected to be eaten up by the boll
weevil.
Oredits are hard to obtain: mer
chants have too much out now for
their stability, and the farmer has no
prospect of a crop this year that will
help him out. In such a contingency
we can’t balme them for being blu*
and discouraged and that is undoubted
ly the situation throughout some por
tions of the state. The banks are not
able to carry them much longer; there
*is no cotton crop and very little pros
pects for any.
Look around in this county, for in
stance. and see the difference. 11
there is anything to be blue over hers
it is temporary and certainly only
slightly comparable to that north of
us- We are safe and sane in our
farming and we have worked out of *
big hole and safely past the most (lid*
agreeable and discouraging part of the
business depression. South Georgia
looks mighty good to us and we are not
the only ones.
WORSE THAN THE WEtVIL
The baseball bug is the most per
sistent thing that ever struck the
country, except the boll w'eevil or th-
ase borer, perhaps, but it is more
his 1 indiscriminate in its attentions than
either of these two pests. We always
see some plan evqry year to start up
a small league in towns of about ten
thousand people, knowing full well be
fore it is started that it will cost a lot
The pleasure resorts always leave 1 more money than will ever be realized
the impression that the accent Is on from gate receipts. Yet fans are
it is stated, whether true or not, that
the road never lost a passenger until
the accident near Atlanta a short
time ago. What better guarantee
there than this.
The dynamiters of the railroad have
always been after freight trains. They
have not yet dared attack a passen
ger train and any betting mau would
wager a ten to one shot that they
wouldn’t be base enough to go after
a passenger train in that fashion
The railroad is essential to ma:ly
points in this part of the state and
its loss would be a terrible calamity
We don't believe that this will come
about and indications are now that
the road will materially increase it
revenue. When business warrants it
the passenger business will be im
proved to meet the demand. Not un
til that time, however, can it be ex
pected unless the managers of the
road have lost their full senses.

In lieu of'league baseball they often
take on a form of amateur baseball,
•so-called, in which the team is com
posed of hired players, all drawing
good salaries, and as long as ihey win
they have a job- Asked to raise five
thousand dollars for baseball, any
town would balk apd yet they under
take this hired team sort of playinf
without a moment's hesitation and al
ways get up money enough to keep it
going for a while.
. It has struck South Georgia agali
and many towns have hired boys play
ing for them, some going so far as to
take on a whole college team for that
purpose. It makes good baseball,
something quite interesting 1
summer months hut it is a very costly
experiment. It has become so general
in its spread, however, that a town
with a prely amaetur team of home
boys is out of the running and can’t
even make a showing against the semi-
professional teams that are in towns
nearby.
Thomasville has not taken to' the
fever yet and will not as long as it
gets the present brand of purely local
and unpaid baseball every Thursday

some amusement and those who go
ought to think so to the tune of twen
ty-five cents at least. Not thinking so,
they might stay away just to show by
a more desirable manner that they
don't.
THE PLIGHT OF THE A. B. A A.
There seems to be vpry little pros-
pert for the resumption of the double
daily passenger service over the A.
B. and A., railroad to (his section of
tlie state. We were asked a short
time ago why the railroad refused to
put on this service again. We can
answer it quite readily because any
man can see that business won’t
justify it.
The talk of the purchase of the rail
road for the state and the assertion
that it is to be junked at once seems
to be exaggerated to a material ex
tent and Is doing the railroad barm,
The A. B. and A. suffered In the loss
of ifs passenger business more from
the scare of people due to the at*
tempted dynamiting than anything
else.
The road ha* a record that no other
road In the country possesses as far

ThfE quitters.
William Allen White alludes to the
20.000 people who took their own
lives in the United States last year as
having voluntarily got up and walked
out, leaving the world cold and flat.
Observing the great tragic drama of
life that unfolds daily, together with
its accompanying comedy, Mr. White
concludes that these 20,000 quitters,
wherever they may be going, are
missing a mighty good thing is that
they lack the vision io behold, anti
held so much to charm the eye and
engross the soul^ as it holds to-day.*'
All of which is true. The trouble with
the quitters, however, is that they
lack the vision to behold and that they
are engrossed not in the drama and
comedy of life but in their own petty
affairs; they are absorbed in their
own selfish concerns to the exclusion
of everything else, and therefore miss
the great drama that is being enacted
on the world’s stage. That person
who takes his own life is an egotist
of the most pronounced sort. His
thoughts are concentrated upon him
self. He exaggerates his own Im
portance. He takes himself too
seriously. He magnifies the troubles
that beset him. The cure for his
disease is to be found in the cultiva
tion of self forgetfulness, In contem
plation of “the gTeat panorama which
history is unfolding before us day by
day, forever beckoning with its
tomorrows and luring us with big
events just around the corner from
to-day.*' It is fascinating panorama
that inspires in men desire to live,
that gives them yearning for long life,
in order that they may witness what
is ever “just around the comer from
today.” Certain It is that the man
who quits this voluntarily is missing
a mighty good thing. He had better
take a new grip on courage and play
the game resolutely to the en<V —
