AGRICULTURAL HALL
•
The work on the new agricul
tural hall on the campus of the
University of Georgia is progres
sing rapidly now and the contrac
tors hope Within the next month
to have it covered with the roof.
The work is now proceeding on
the walls of the third story and
those who are competent to judge
say it is going to be a most dura
ble and handsome structure.
Chairman L. G. Hardman, of the
building committee of the board
of trustees, visited Athens yes
terday for the purpose of inspect
ing the building and attending to
other matters connected with the
board of trustees.
It is practically certain that
this building will be in readiness
for occupancy at the opening of
the University next September,
when it is confidently expected
there will be an increase of not
less than one hundred to one hun
dred and fifty in the department
of agriculture. This is by far
the largest and most pretentious
building on the University cam
pus and will cost one hundred
thousand dollars exclusive of
equipment. Athens Banner.

SOME FACTS FOR THE SANE
The earnings of the Georgia,
Southern and Florida railway
since July 1, of last year have
been twelve thousand three hun
dred dollars in excess of the cor
responding period of the year
before.
The year before it will be re
called, was a record-breaker in
the history of railroad earnings
and in general prosperity.
To have exceeded that record
is a strong indication that the
state of Georgia is not going to
the bow-wows.
At a time when political agi
tators, in order to serve their
own selfish end, even at the ex
pense of the best interests of the
state, are attempting to convey
the impression that we are in the
low grounds of calamity, it is
just as well to keep facts like
these before the intelligent peo
ple of Georgia.—Fitzgerald En
terprise.
