IT IS HOPED that the cold rains
we have had will not spread rust
from the blade to the stalk on
wheat. If this danger can he avert
ed a record-breaking small grain
crop will be mnde in this section.
MR. HAROLD HULME says he
can speedily finish his plftntihg
when the ground dries. He has a
fine stand of corn. Mr. Hulme has
a new grass that he says beats
anything in that line • yet found.
He has an acre planted in the
grass and which he has named
the Hulme Grass. Later on he will
let the public know about it.
MR. W. P. DORSEY say* the
ladles of Athens should organise
a boycott against the robber sugar
trust, as other cities are doing.
He says everything the people
touch, taste, or handle, is. now
controlled by a trust, and even
articles in his own linie, that the
cradle in which an infant is rocked-
to the cooffin in which you are
buried has the price advanced.
When labor is paid an advance
of 60 cents for the manufacture of
an article, the trust adds the profit.
By beatinlg the sugar trust we can
then tackle the others, one by one.
