(Continued From Paae One) dents here were In no small 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 nancial ■institutions during tho pust months has been satisfac tory and in keeping with the In creased business forcasted for the near future.
