WINDER AND BARROW COUNTY LAND OWNERS CONSIDER GROWING PEACHES IT IS PROPOSED TO HAVE EACH GROWER TO PT OUT 5,000 TREES OR MORE. 35 ACRES TO EACH GROWER Would He Paying Proposition and Give Money Crop in Dull Season of the Year. QUITE a number of our best farmers and business men are considering putting out peach orchards this fall to -help change from the one crop system and to offset the ravages of the boll weevil on the cotton crop. The plan suggested is to put out not less than 30,000 trees of the commercial varie ties, which will be enough to interest peach buyers, and will also warrant the Individual growers joining the Georgia Fruit Exchange, which is now hand ling most of Georgia's peach crop. The 'Georgia Fruit Exchange is mads up en tirely of Georgia peach growers, and has its headquarters at Macon near the center of the peach section with local representatives in the peach sections. It is proposed to have each grower here put out as nearly 5,000 trees each as possible. These would cover about 35 acres, and would he as small an amount as could he cared for econom ically. Those interested., include H. A. Ca- Fithers, IV. M. Hoi sen beck. Dr. L. IV. Hodges, Dr. IV. L. DeLaPerriere, E. ftl. Arnold. J. IV. Shields. IV. E. Young, Brunelle Smith, A. A. Camp, John M. Williams, Flanigan & Flanigan, li. H. Kimball, IV. I?. Met'ants and others. If this industry is developed as it has been in other sections it should be a paying proposition, and would give us a money crop in what is now the dull season of the year, causing trade and business to be more stabilized dur fing the year round.

Now, Mr. Milk Consumer, if you will ask your milk man to show you his of ficial score card from the State Dairy Inspector, he has it or should have it, you can answer some questions your self. Whose milk buckets and strainers did he find in the dirty lot on the ma nure spreader airing themselves? They were not mine. I was milking in my buckets and my strainer was in the milk house under screens where they all stay when not in use. Did he catch me milking? Yes, Sunday after noon. What did I do? 1 invited him in. He said : “Go to it, boy! Everything 'is clean and you are doing it right.” He came again Monday, went over the entire place, and gave me advice 'as to some building improvements I 'intend to make. Before leaving, he gave me a clean bill of health, without ; any restrictions. , My score card, bearing his official signautre. shows a perfect mark in care /of barn, cleanliness in milking, and care fof milk house. It may he examined at my dairy at any time. The inspector expressed himself as satisfied with the sanitary conditions of my premises and pronounced my milk good. In ten month’s business I have not missed a delivery, and am now better 'prepared than ever to give good ser vice. I am not running a summer time dairy. By fall I will have six teen more cows fresh in milk. The i milk I produce is second to none. I sell at market price. It is my aim to build up in Winder a dairy unsurpassed by any.

The j occasion was in honor of the departure of Rev. W. H. Faust from ministerial work in this section. It had been her i aided far and wide, of his going, and many people met on this occasion to see, he seen and heard. Some met ill love and respect while some, I fear, came out of mere curiosity. Now, 1 discovered ere I left that many classes and clans of religious movements as well as social ones were on hand and prepared to say the nice things as well as flattering which was appropriate and in decency and order. Each and every church had its rep ! resentative. The school, the Wom en's clubs, the city of Winder and Bar- J row county and the Appalnelioe asso ciation all came in with nice words, well chosen and appropriate. But there was one element, and that a predominating one, with which Bro. Faust lias had much to say was not permitted to be placed upon this pro gram. Now, ir was probably a mistake or perhaps no one would consent to 1 represent this powerful elan. Maybe, they thought this clan would not sneak into fio sacred a place upon so serious lan occasion. That's where ttiey all went wrong, for this class was there ! with ears and eyes well open and an eloquent and fluent speaker who often exhibits his powers upon the street corners to the tickling of the ears of casual passers-by. Some would laugh at Ids arrogance while others would ! smile at his Ignorance. They call this class leader or fore man, the ‘‘Great Mogul,” for he fears not to handle in no kind way the preacher, his nets, his sermons or any thing in which lie is interested. In speaking to his followers, he says: “The preacher is a hypocrite,” but deep down in his inmost soul he knows that he is telling a falsehood. He says that the preacher is telling an imaginary tale when he Iras evidence convincing that the preacher is telling the Bible truth. He says that the preacher is working for pay only, hut at the same j time he sees him walking or riding on j errands where he knew there was no hope for pay. This Great Mogul would have said could he have had the opportunity: “When we saw the preacher coming we hid our bottle and cards, changed : our curs • words to more modern lingo and cut short our blackguarding or our smutty yarns until he passed by. Our clan questioned, liis inconsistency, re alizing at the same time that incon sistency is our chief charm. We said he labored on the Sabbath for gain in his travels and exertions when w'e knew we were wasting our time over a cheap novel, or dally news or a game of any kind for winnings.” “Summing it all up, I, the Great Mo gul, and chief of sinners say we re spect the preacher though we cannot get the courage to take a stand as ho he would have us take.” A SINNER.
