Nothing new has transpired in oiir 'community since my last letter to your paper. Very little farm work has been done yet on accounirpf the con¬ tinued bad weather. This is put¬ ting the farmers far behind with their work. The grain crop is found . to be injured but very little thrqugh this section, by the heavy 8now and cold spells we had during January, and from the present outlook now, ther will be a fine crop yet. Several of the farmers made a business trip to Macon last week and report times very dull in that place. JVLr. R. L. Dickey left a few weeks ago for Atlanta, where he will attend a business College. Mr. Dickey has secured the serv¬ ice of Mr. Joe Jackson to fill his place in the store. Most of the farmers have order¬ ed their guano together in car loads. By doing this they get it a little cheaper and more con¬ venient Cotton seed is now selling he e at thirty one cts. per bushel, and most of the farmers are selling’ajl they will have to spare, they are realizing that it will pay them better to sell them than to use them for fertilizers. Within the past year, interest in educational affairs, here in tins community have cosiderably re¬ vived and it is easy to see that many of our best citizens are re¬ alizing the fact that good schools are the life ot a community.
