McDonough, Ga , April 25.—Heuty county is on a big boom in regard to Farmers' Alliances, There are.about 200 members in the couutv, and the number is rapidly increasing. Organiz or Frost is the tight man in the right place, and if ho fails to get up a ledge in a community it is because they can’t raise tbe fifty cents required of each man. A lodge was recently organized it Lo cust Grove wi h 10 members. W. M. Combs is President. Cotton is coming up finely and onr farmers look for a large crop. The oil mill and gnano factory is all l he talk, and we begin to think they wilt bo built sure enough. Editor Hale has on exhibition at tbe Times office the plans and spec fleations. If it is not built, it will not be his fault. Col. S. C. McBaDiel and wife, of Griffin, aro visiting McDonough. Capt. H. H.

The unst of the cotton crop is planted, and the first planting is up; but the cold wind is causing it to look very bad and some ot it is dyiug. Wo had some frost last Friday and Sat T \ZTZ tinue to grow much colder, I very ranch fear that wo will have a killing fros the full of the moon, which would prove detrimental to tho farmers. Surely they are incident to more disasters than any people on earth; bat the Bible tells ns to lake no thought for the morrrow; therefure having food and raiment, we ought therewith :o be content, and not cross the mourn a iu before we get to it. Your correspondent and Mr. E. (J. A., have a brag cotton patch of one acre each, and we have agreed not to be Iim ited in tbe amount of fertilizers used nor in the mode of cultivation, and the one who raises the gieateet amount of cot ton on the ground is to be presented by the other one with a fine hut. Of course, I »m going to make every honest effort possible to get the hat, and I reckon he will too, but I would be very glad if fie would give it up now, for I certainly stand in great need perhaps more so than I will next fall, I have planted mine and have at this time a very good stand of eottoo, but these cold winds make me »lm>vst wish I bad not been so early; but hope it will torn on* for best yet.
