Around Athens
J. F. HART. JR.. A SON of Mr.
Jim Hart', of Athena, and who Uvea
in Dublin, Ga.. waa highly com
plimented in the Atlanta constltu-
tlon of Friday, In a writo-up In
that paper of Dublin. Mr. Hart la
spoken of as one of the most pro-
grcaalro vltlzens of his town and
which owes mucn of Its growth to
his”efforts.
''S
THE RIVER STREET BRIDGE
fa now completed, except the ap'
proaches. The grading of Madison
avenue Is progressing but con
siderable rock Is to be blasted out
and which takes time. When this
work Is finished the road hands
wfll be carried to the Princeton
road, and then to the Athens-
jefferson highway. Jackson conn
ty will be asked to meet us at the
county line with a good road.
MR. CORRY MAXWELL, of
Lexington, says fully two-thirds
of the negroeB have left Ogle
thorpe county, and those • who
exoduhted are able bodied and
good hands, and only sorry dar
keys and old men, women and
children are left. He says many
farms In his county must this year
remain unfilled for lack of labor.
REAL ESTATE AGENTS say
that the demand for both city
property and farming lands Is pick
lag up and they predict a ?*• r. mrl
revival In their line of business
this spring and summer.
WHILE MANY FARMERS
AROUND ATHENS sold their cot
ton when the price reached thirty
cents, some are still holding and
now say they wan# ihlrty-dve
cents. The Banner-Herald predict
ed last fall that the startle would
bring thirty cents by spring.
All of our merchants are now re
ceiving new spring goods and they
are anticipating a fine trade.
Everybody Is hopeful and happy.
Mr. Will Scott, manager of the
Scott Hardware Co., says his firm
' Is having a good sale for paints.
Nqthlng Improves a home like a
coat of fresh paint, or so helps the
looks of a city. /
COTTON SEED FROM the Wln-
tervllle Pure 8ead Association are
being shipped all over the South.
THE DEMAND FOR COW PEA?
Is Increasing and they have da-
vanced to |l a bushel. Now that
so many negroes bavo let# the
' fanners had better sow down
' vacant fields In peas, and the hay
will bring as much as would a
cultivated crop.
MR. JOHN R. MOORE, who Uvea'
on the commerce road and has
many friends In Athens, I* up from
a severe case of the flu. Nearly
all of his negroes have left, but be
baa found white labor to take their
place.
THE HOME OF THE LATE Mr.
Tom Hudson, who lived abo .t five
miles from the city, near Center,
has the best drawing chimneys
ever built. A tramp gate him their
dtmentlons and a diagram' when an
addition to bis home was being
built Mr. Hudson waa the first
man to Introduce the German carp-
fish In Georgia, and made big mon
ey from • small pond In. front of
his bouse. There were millions
of young carp In this jiond and he
sold them att from ten to fifty cents
each. People came hundreds of
miles for them. But the carp
■ erase soon played out
FISHERMEN SAY THE Stream;
around Athene appear to be fished
poultry. The day Is no# very
distant when the entire distance
between Athens and Bogart will
be one unbroken settlement or
small and intensive farms. This
Is a beautiful and healthful sec
tion overlooking all surrounding
country. Towns and cities always
extend to the West, so It Is said.
