COLD WAVE IN GEORGIA.
High Winds and Cold of Friday mid
Saturday Have Not Killed
the Fruit.
It is probable that much of the
cotton crop in the southern part ot the
state, particularly about Americas
will have to be replanted on account
of the damage done by the seven
weather ot the past few days. ,,
Weather forecaster J B Marbuiy,
Saturday, received reports from that
section indicating that the cotton
crop had fared badly at the hands of
^oth la j f i < U id wind. The rain, it
8t , em8) flret put the fields in such
condition that when the high winds
of the past day or so came, the tend
er planteewere blighted.
Professor Marbury is of the opiu
ion tlmt the fruit crop is still safe,
but fears that tbe young vegitation
in many sections of Georgia may
have suffered considerable.
