In this article I havo only space to briefly tell about crops in the different counties through wfalch we passed, but in future letters I will write about other things of In terest. At Gough I met prominent gentlemen from different sections of Georgia who wero thero to In vestigate the Hill Mature, and beans. MR. AND MRS. TAYLOR ES TES of Oglethorpe, brought a.car load of produce to the curb, mar* ket. Mr. Estes says they have gotten the best of the boll weevil ‘otpid Smlthonia by using poison.

FLINT RIVER BAPTIST ASSOCIATION TO MEET SOON AT LOCUST GROVE LOCUST GROVE, Ga.—Begin ning Monday, July 23, and closing on the following Saturday, the Flint River Baptist Association will hold its first annual fncamp- ment at Locust Grove, Ga. Th® buildings- and campus of Locuat Grove Institute will be used as quarters for the associations! workers in attendance and the services of the -school will be of fered for their convenience. from thorn I secured facts that will bo of interest to our readers. Lshnll give a report of crop con dltlona Just as they appeared to me, also, to prominent farmerr with whom 1 talked. Except In the extremo lower counties we visited, crops of nil klnu: are about thirty days late and very small. But cropa are clean and except In Iso lated canes farmers are using pop in some form on their cotton. Almost In sight of Athens I noticed some fields that are not worked, but crops nre generally better than I expected, but very small. Ol course the Jong dry spell has set them back. From Maxcya to Union Tolnt nnd some two or three mller * beyond the latter town, I waa aur* prised to see so little land Idle and crops were far better than prom ised the last time I travelled that road. Farmers In that section aeen* to have recovered from the paraly. •In that seized upon them with th* appearance of the boll weevil. But from thenco on until Barnett Is reached I never aaw sorrier cropa or a more gloomy outlook for far mers. Cotton Is small, with a very poor stand, and many fields of corn we paaed I really do not believe will return the aeed planted. Bar- party remarked that NOW THAT A REAL MARKET has been established for vegetables and produce, formers should pre pare to go Into the busines right On nearly every farm there Is a branch that will enable one to. Ir rigate his garden by properly lo cating It, and he need not then depend on rain for a crop. It does not take much cost to build a small dam and water yqur garden during a dry spell.
