way responsible for a large
proportion of Athens’ summer
business.
Buying, as u whole, has been
freer thi.f year, than was tho
case last year. Money has
been easier and the people hate
not st'ntcd themselves as has
been the i i.se in the recent
past. This Js especJnlJy truo
of tho trado from the Athens
territory %
A great many of tho farmers
havo been able to finance their
farms this -ear to a greater
extent than has been the cage
since the appearance of the boll
weevil. This Is largely due to
the fact that the diversified
program Is gradually shaping
itself into n telling workable
agricultural system. Farmers
have not depended on cotton,
but are producing products
which furnishes some ready
cash the year around. Tho
*‘iive-at-home" slogan has de
veloped In telling results, and
cotton is being produced large
ly as a surplus money crop.
The opening of the curb mar
ket has nld-*d materially along
this line nr.J has meant much
both to farmers and city in
terests.
EXCELLENT YEAR t
OR FARMERS
A survey of the agricultural
conditions of Clarke county by
County Agent .T. W. Fisor.
points to an excellent year for
the farmer* of the county. The
cotton crop Is better this year
than It has bc^n since the en
trance of the boll weevil. Crain
crops are larger, and the live
stock program has been broad
ened.'
Reports, from - counties in the
Athens* terzllarjk ns to the ag
ricultural conditions are excel
lent and point to a highly pros
perous year. Merchants In the
territory look forward to a
good business year, and the ag-
’ rleulturists are optimistic over
the condition of crops,
Jtocttf hauliers and those In
Athens') trade territory nre
confident that trade expecta
tions for the fall and winter
months will be fully realized.
Business transacted by tho fi

pust months has been satisfac
tory and in keeping with the In
creased business forcasted for
the near future.
