When Griffin got the Experimental Farm.
GRIFFIN GETS BOTH !
THE EXPERIMENTAL STATION
AND THE FARM >
Are Located at the Bates Place, In
Spalding County—The Ac¬
tion of the Board.
There was a good deal of anxiety,
though considerable confidence, in
Griffin yesterday over the action of
the Board of Commissioners as to the
location of the Agricultural Experi¬
ment Station and Farm. The board
met in Atlanta at 11 o’clock, and it
was thought that they would soon
arrive at a decision. But the time
wore on, and people from the country
who were anxious to hear went
home in doubt, though not in despon¬
dency, while the citizens began to feel
dubious at the lack of news. But
at 4:45 the following conclusive
patch came to the News office and
was at once bulletined:
To the-NEws, Griffin, Ga.
Atlanta, Ga., May 7.—The board
have selected the Bates place, near
Griffin, as the location for the Exper¬
iment Station and Farm.
J. T. Henderson.
This settled all doubtand in a man¬
ner very satisfactory to Griffin,
we think to most of the rest of the
State, who must acknowledge, os
their representatives have done,
superiority of advantages in
tion, accessibility, soil and
The station and farm going together
must remove any doubt as to
great gain in securing this much
tested for prize, and decides
pre-eminence in every respect.
The location selected is one of
finest small farms in the State,

road and the Georgia Midland
Gulf Railroad running through it.

the pride of the State, as well as
pride and ornament of Griffin.
HOW IT WAS DONE.
Tie Directors Satisfied They Have Se¬
lected the Best Site.
To the News, Griffin. Ga.
Atlanta, Ga., May 7.—The

SOMETHING TO BE PROUD OF.
‘V
_
Work Being Accomplished by the Mid¬
dle Ga. Hort. Society.
The following complimentary no¬
tice is taken from the May number o*
the Southern Cultivator:
“Griffin has reason to be proud
the work being accomplished for that
section of Georgia by her Middle Geor¬
gia Horticultural Society. The inter¬
est manifestd in the Society by the
ladies is a strong guarantee of its per¬
manency, power and success. Mr. J.
D. Hasted, the President, and Wm.
Warder, the Secretary, are practical
men, and bring to bear upon the dis¬
charge of the duties of their positions
energy, culture and public spirit.
Spalding county owes it as a solemn
and imperative duty to herself to s well
its membership and increase its pow¬
er for good. Griffin is the center of
the finest fruit growing regions to be
found and the Society can be made a
strong factor in development and
knowledge. It was our good fortune
to attend one of the meetings of the
Society and we were delighted at the
prospect before it. Last year, at Po¬
mona and Vineyard, over $10,000
worth, of fruit were sold, one-hall on
the ground. Home markets should
be the aim of each section.
“The State Horticultural Society
will meet in Griffin next August. Tbe
hospitality of the people of Griffin is
well known. We predict that the ses¬
sion held there will be one of the
most interesting ever held in the
South.”
The value of a remedy should be estimated
by its curative properties. According to this
standard, Ayer’B Sarsaparilla is the best and
most economical Mood medicine in the mar¬
ket, because the most pure and concentrated.
