A Good Fruit Section.
There is no finer country in Georgia
than the section around Winder for all
kinds of fruit grown in th's climate.
The soil seems peculiarly adapted to
peaches, pears and grapes and there is
not more than one year in six or seven
that the peach crop is a failure. If our
people would put out orchards of the
best varieties for shipping and give the
tree' that attention and cultivation they
have to give all other crops to get
any yield from them, they would find
more money by double or thrible in an
orchard of 10 or 20 acres than in any
thing else on the same land. To make
peach growing profitable here, howev
er, there ought to be an organization of
all those who would like to engage in
uhe business and get enough parties in
to it to °hip in car load lots.
There is no danger, of t>o many en
gaging in this enterprise. The great
trouble is in getting enough parties so
as to raise in quantities sufficient to
ship in crrload lots, thereby gettig the
lowest rates of freight and inducing
buyers to come here direct to the orch
ards to purchase. There ought to b 9 an
organization perfected here and five
hundred or more acres put out next
winter in peech trees. Men are reay•
ing fortunes from their orch 1 ’ ds in oth
er portions of Georgia, not naa.* so
favored as we, and our people shou'd
wake up and improve their opportunity.

FAMILYJEONION.
Mr. S. H. Smith Had a Reunion
of All His Family Last Week
to Celebrate His Eighty-First
Birthday. "All of His Children
Grand and Great-Grand Chil
dren Present and the Day Was
One of Much Pleasure.
On last Friday, July 21st, Mr. Samuel
H. Smith of our city had a reunion of
his entire family, it being his eighty
first birthday. A’l of his children,
grand and great grand children were
present, the whole number amounted
to fifty-two.
About 10 o’clock that morning the
photographer went to the residence of
Mr. Smith o'n Broad street and took a
picture of the entire family of fifty-two
in a group. They were Mr. and Mrs.
S. H Smith, Mr. and Mrs. G. B. Smith
and family, of Elder, Ga., Mr. and Mrs.
S. P. Smith and family, of Winder, Mr.
R. A. W. and Miss Joe Ida Smith, Win
der, Mr. and Mrs. John Knott, of Mor
gan county, Mr. and Mrs. G. F. Hardi
gree and family and Mr. and M-s. J. H.
Giles and family of Jackson county
and Miss Kittie and Mr. Claude Mayne
It being the editor’s birthday as well
as Uncle Sam’s, he gave ns a special,
invitation to be on hand and enjoy the
day with him and we can truthfully say
we never spent the time more pleasantly
nor ate more of the good th’ngs that
filled the table at the samptnons dinner.
We forgot all about being a dyspeptic
when the roast mutton and beef, boiled
ham, smothered chicken, Fried chicken
and chicken pie were brought a-oand to
us and even risked the consequences
when cream and cake came in sight.
There were over 60 present for din
ner, 51 of the family rnd the others rel
atives and friends. We on not attempt
with pen to describe the enjoyment of
this part of the Jay. Mr. Smith is one
of the oldest and best men in Winder,
and it wa: certainly a great pleasnie to
have all of his family with him and to
know that of this large number of his
posterity all of them were doing well
and that none of them had ever done
any thing to bring reproach on the
name or worry on him in his declining
years. We trust he may live to have
many more reunions and that they may
all be as pleasant and greatly enjoyed
c.i the one last Friday.
Going To Texas.
Mr. W. A. Oliver* of near Pender

boyhood days whom we regret very
much to see leave Georgia, bat we
trust will meet that success in Texas
he so richly deserves. He will leave
next week and our best wishes will fol
low him to his new home. He has been
a regular subscriber to The Economist
for six years, but says he will appreci
ate it more now than ever. —"

Fine Corn.
Mr. D. P. Camp says he has apiece of
oorn that was planted the 18th day of
May that stands about twenty two
inches apart iu the drill and will aver
age nine feet high, with an 000 lonftl
tassel beginning to show. This corn
was made with eleven fu rows to the
row, after planting, aud with one hoe
ing to thin it out. it ha/ had only three
little showers, the heaviest one not
wetting the ground more than one inch.
Shon’d you like to see this corn, he in
formes us you had better bring your lan
tern along with you for there is such
a thing as one getting lost when you get
in it. I don’t know that you will seo
stars in daylight bat very probably you
may see lightning bugs. He says tho
seoret about this flr.e peice of corn is
the land was prepared with a Tiger Disc
plow and you will do well to see him be

Rains Do Groat Damage.
The rains for the past two days
around Winder have done great damage.
The two large ponds at Mr. Francis
Jackson’s mill just below town bnrsted
yesterday, a’so the pond at Mr. Ameri
cas Thompson’s mill four miles from
town. The water swept away all tho
fine bottom corn on Beech creek and
when it reached Mr. Bowman’s Mill hia
dam was broken and his large mill
house and the bridge just tnlow it were
washed away. Messrs W. S. Dunahoo.
George Steed, Bud Pentecost and others
will lose most all their corn, amounting
to several hundred acres.
The washing away of Mr. Bowman's
mill is a great lo's to him, and Mr. Jaok
son also sustains a big loss, as his two
dams cost a lot of money. If the heavy
rains contihae much longer all the bot
tom la id oorn is this section will be de
stroyed. The upland corn is a failure,
so we wi.’l make little corn is this coun
