THE JACKSON PROGRESS-ARGUS, JACKSON. GEORGIA
ONE VARIETY COTTON
IS EXTENSIVELY GROWN
SEVERAL MIDDLE GEORGIA
COUNTIES PLANTING STONE
VILLE COTTON. RESULTS
BEEN MOST SUCCESSFUL
Farmers of Butts county, particu
larly those in the Stark area, who
grew Stoneville cotton No. 2 last
season, will be interested in the an
nouncement from the Georgia Ex
periment Station that several new
projects will be started this year.
Among the new communities that
will grow Stoneville No. 2 cotton for
he first time this season are: Brown’s
Crossing in Baldwin county; at Chap
pell, Milner and Goggins in Lamar
county; at Zebulon, Meansville and
Concord in Pike county, and at
Yatesville and Thomaston in Upson
county.
The one-variety cotton gin at Or
chard Hill has acted very much like
a stone dropped in a quiet pool of
water. Next year the territory
around Orcharl Hill will be entirely
surrounded by an encircling group
of one-variety communities. Next
year at least ten gins will gin only
one variety of cotton and eleven oth
er gins will have gin days. In ad
dition to this there are about twenty
locations which have considerable in
terest in a one-variety community
and it is not improbable that some
ol these will have gin days next sea
son.
One of the most interesting results
of the year’s work has been the com
parison made between Stoneville No.
2 and other varieties of cotton grown
in the same community. At Culloden
the farmers themselves made a care
ful survey of the results. Stoneville
No. 2 produced 60 pounds more lint
cotton per acre than other varieties
and in addition brought an average
premium of $3.75 per bale. It was
estimated that farmers obtained a
difference of $8.25 per acre in favor
of Stoneville No. 2.
Butts county farmers who grew
Stoneville No. 2 last season are ex
changing seed with their neighbors,
so as to have this one-variety cotton
planted over a large area this year.
As seed are somewhat scarce it i3
considered desirable that arrange
ments be made at once for planting
seed.
Those desiring Stoneville seed may
obtain information from County
Drake.
MR. ARNULDpAXWELL
PASSED AWAY SUNDAY
The death of Mr. Arnold Maxwell,
77 years of age, occurred here Sun
day at noon, death resulting from a
period of ill health extending over
several weeks. For the past year Mr.
Maxwell and his sister, Mrs. Charles
R. Post, of New Orleans, have resid
ed at Indian Springs and Jackson,
coming here for the benefit of Mr.
Maxwell’s health.
Mr. Maxwell was born in Griffin,
leaving there as a young man. Later
he resided in Savannah where he was
connected with the Atlantic Coast
Line Railway. He achieved success in
the business field. Since coming to
Jackson to reside Mr. Maxwell had
made many friends who were im
pressed with his courteous manner
and his kindness of heart. He was a
member of the Methodist church.
He is survived by his sister, Mrs.
Charles R. Post, of New Orleans.
The body was taken Monday after
noon to McDonough where funeral
services at the grave were conducted
at 2 o’clock by Rev. C. B. Drake,
pastor of the McDonough Methodist
church. Interment was in the Mc-
Donough cemetery beside his wife
and son who died several years ago.
The many friends of Mrs. Post ex
tend sincere sympathy to her in her
bereavement.
Sunday School Lesson
(By Rev. Charles E. Dunn)
Standards of the Kingdom.
Lesson for January 28th. Matt.
5:1-48.
Golden Text: Matt. 5:8.
The familiar, beautiful Beati
tudes may be regarded in several
ways. They are a consecutive history
of the Christiah pilgrimage. They are
the law of the new covenant, just as
the Ten Commandments are the law
of the old. They form a golden chain
of imperishable woi’th. Moreover we
read in them a clear, incisive auto
biography of the Master. He surely
lived to the full every one of thes?
great sayings. For He was a gentle
man to the core. Then, too, these
Beatitudes are a revelation of the
real sources of happiness, “what all
the world’s a-seeking.”
In the first Beatitude, “Blessed
are the poor in spirit” Jesus does not
praise the poor spirited, but rather
those who are lowly in their own eyes,
and therefore cherish a sense of need.
Implicit here is a condemnation of
the complacent, shallow, self-center
eii folk, so unmindful of their obvi
ous lack of eternal support.
The second eßatitude might be
restated, “Blessed are the people who
are having a hard time.” The world
at large does not think so. It is fash
ionable to condemn the mourners.
But Jesus, as usual, is right. Trouble
is life’s greatest teacher.
The third Beatitude is again di
rectly contrary to the accepted policy
of mankind. The world applauds the
aggressive man who blows his own
trumpet. The aggressive nation is
likewise acclaimed. But once more
the Master strikes the right note. He
does not here approve compliance
with wrong. Not at all! The spirit of
the gospel is always a militant call
to battle against evil. What He advo
cates is that self-forgetfulness, that
innate courtesy at the opposite pole
from swagger and impudence.
TYe other Beatitudes are also in
affront to the typical worldling. To
hunger for the right, to cultivate
compassion, to nourish purity, to fol
low the path of peace, to endure per
secution, is to walk in a road care
fully shunned by the majority. But
great is the reward of those citizens
of the new kingdom who cherish this
other-worldly ideal!
