GEORGIA A TOBACCO STATE Tobacco raising in Georgia is increasing each year and rapidly growing to be one of its most important •• industries. Up to a few years ago Virginia and Ken- j tucky were the only southern states where tobacco was grown to any degree of importance, but now the southern part of North Carolina and Soutli Carolina > ere large tobacco producing areas and the industry has spread to this state. Especially in South Georgia , has this industry proved successful and become one t of jts chief products and crops. In North Georgia to- • bacco Is being planted and grown successfully and it is believed that the coming year will find a large , acreage in the chewing and smoking weed product. An exchange from Fayetteville, N. C„ has this to j say of the tobacco raising indus'ry: ^ . Tobacco growing is attracting much attention Bfj* jn Georgia and the newspapers down there are printing glowing accounts of the'big proportions the business is assuming. By the way, it seems i that tobacco culture is tending southward, in stead of northward. Only a few years ago the great tobacco states were Virginia and Ken tucky, while next to none was grown in North [ Carolina, except in the northern counties of the I* - state. Now, however, there id as much tobacco L,f grown in lower Carolina'and in South Carolina ' - • as in Virginia ahd Kentucky, while the Southern leaf is said to be of really better quality. . J When we consider the matter, though, there BE U no cause for surprise at the spread of tobacco ! culture in the Southern states. The finest cigars are made from Havana tobacco, grov it .very hot country, and there never I few yenrt later, mauc bis first stoi towards! bank management, > '■> “ In ISOO he : was eleetdd pretaldont of tbc Bank of the ffnlvorstty.

So ft seems that Georgia yet may become a great tobacco state, while. King Cotton may be dethroned on account of the de structive boll weevil. While if has boon proved) that cotton c&n be suc cessfully grown under boll weevil conditions there is an reason why the farmer should not take on the tobacco crop as well. The profit from an acre of tobacco will be larger than the profit from an acre J-'’of cotton even on a basis of a bale to the acre, which •Is unusual since the advent of the boll weevil. However, it is Safe to have two read-money crops, tobacco and cotton besides foodstuff, poultry, cattle nnd hogs. 4,**!$- * MISTAKES WILL BE MADE That mistakes will be made in all lines of business and professions is certain so long as mankind remains human. An editor in a western city became peeved because some one sent him a copy of his paper con taining typographical errors. The annomyous con tributor, to the annoyance of this editor, kept up the nagging and every few days the editor would re ceive a copy of his paper with some error marked. ; It finally grew too much for him to hold his temper and control his nerves and he gave notice to the an- noymous contributor that mistakes were made by '• men in all walks of life and the minor mistakes oc curring in tho typographical makeup of the paper ■ were not damaging to anyone and that such errors were bound to creep in regardless of the care and pins exercised in the production ot a newspaper 1 The “Fourth Estate," a newspaper publication, took up the matter fn defense of the editor and had the following to say: ? 1 . Wo would be pleased to find a merchant who * 1 never made a mistake in putting up an order; a lawyer who never lost a cast through his error; f ■ a doctor who never wrongly diagnosed a case; a postoffice official who never put mail in the • wrong box; a woman who never forgot to put in salt while cooking, or to put tea in the pot. V- some of y°ur mistakeless paragons who ,V SSi". 80 f ary ,L° oriticise the newspapers and ’{f!j? tho chance of their lives to find °. u t whether they are really human. ■PF The “Fourth Estate" is correct. We ail make mistakes, but in the newspaper business there Is more r r o . m l? r l , t . t e lr r c Sailor mistakes to creep in than in r hne of business; If the public realized - ’ I opportunities for mistakes to occur In the 'Tlprchant who has the stock and advertises will be the one to profit this fall. e * The finding cf thThidden gold supposed to be that of Grover Cleveland Bcrgdoll has turned out to be 4 joke.

To play jazz is about as harrass- ing to the musician’s ears as rid ing I pan 1 automobile with a flat tire.’ A, few days ago I ran across in an exchange w^at Is said to be the origin of jazz. For thtf benefit of the lovers of jazz music hero It is: ' A gink with nimble, spindly legs and candy-colorcd locks. Who found the world was handing him its very choicest knocks. Decided he would organize an orchestra or two And jiee what coin-collecting stunts the noisy things could do. So he took some empty kettles and wired 'em together And hooked ’em to a swinging line he made of heavy leather. He strung a lot of old tin cans to wires, ropes and strings And tied ’em to a windlass for to swing the blooming things. He put some broken bottles in two old potato sacks. And filled a box with railroad spjkes ho stolo from the tracks; Bought ,somo cymbals for. a dollar and rented him a drum, And ns he stopped to blow ho said: ••I think I’m going some!** He rigged up a contrivance regu lated by a w*heol -)} latea oy a wneoi That made a noise whoh turning like s fat pig’s dying squeal.
