GRIFFIN, GEORGIA. FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 6. 1903.
The Reseats Views of Com
missioner Stevens.
.Hon. O. B, Stevens, commissioner
of agriculture, takes a very rosy
view of conditions in Georgia. He
says the people are in good condi
tion, and there is general prosperity
and progress on all sides, Despite
she bad condition of the cotton
crop, Mr. Stevens is confident that
the farmers will get more for their
cotton this year than they got last.
In talking oi the situation, Mr.
Stevens says i
‘•Taking rll things into consider
ation, the general condition of the
people of Georgia is better than at
this time last year.
'“Although food supplies were
high and commercial fertilizers ex
pensive, these unfavorable condi
tions were more than counterbal
anced by the fact that our farmers
gave more than the usual attention
to the cultivation of oom, wheat,
oats and rye, and, having enjoyed
a more favorable season than in the
previous year, have now larger,
crops of all the cereals, They have
also raise! more and better sweet
potatoes, and from all we can learn
the hay crop is the largest in the
history of thel State The result
proves the truth of what has been
constantly urged upon our people
by the Georgia department of agri
culture, that more hay meant more
and better cattle, both dairy and
beef, more hogs of good quality, as
to size and flavor, and higher grade
stock of every kind.
“More sugar cane also has been
raised, and there is a steady growth
in the manufauture of the best
grades of Georgia syrnp.
“In this connection, it is well to
mention that Dr. John M. McCand
less, the State chemist, has prepar
ed a pure food law for Georgia on
the basis of a similar law to be in-
J troduoed at the coming session of
■ congress. This law not only for
bids the adulteration all foods
and drugs etd feeding etuffs for
animals, but also provides penalties
for the infraction of its provisions
and means of eriorcing obedience.
It was introduced at the last session
of the State legislature by Hun.
Pleasant A. Stovall, of Savannah,
and will be acted upon at the next
meeting of that body. Os course, a
law of such wide ecope embraces
also protection to the Georgia deal
ers in pure syrups. Caps. D. G.
Purse, Col. T. J. James, J. Byron
Wright and W. B. Rodder.berry
have been of great service to the
•ugar cane growers of Georgia.
“Scarcity of labor on farms has
caused great inconvenience in many
instances. Yet even this is due to
the demand for labor by some of the
great industries of our State, e.s, for
instance, the lumber mills, the
turpentine distilleries, and our vast
and steady growing railroad sys
tern.
“The cotton crop ds smaller than
usual, owing roc to a decrease in
acreage,but to unfavorable seasons
But, if prices held up at present
figures, there will come to the
farmers of Georgia more money
from their crop than was derived
from the larger one of last yer.
“In horticulture there is also a
steady improvement. The Ran
Jo*e scale, though not extertui
nated, is held in check Tnere is
a steady increase in the number
and sizs of commercial orchard-
The number of trees in the pr->e .
orchards is double that of the oer;-
sus year (1899) reported in 1900. S >
many trees (about 8,000,000) me
now in bearing, that, although the
peach crop of last season was great
ly out off by various disasters, yet »
fairly goo 1 crop was realized, which
brought considerable money into
Georgia. Under go .d condition -
the peach crop is worth io our
State not less than $4,000,000 The
apples, pear, plums, cherries and
other fruits add considerably to
that amount
“Nor shall we foiget the truck
farms, or market gardens, which
have grown to such proportions as
to hold now an important place in
industries of Georgia, adding from
five to six million dollars annually
to the value of agricultural products.
“Among ths striking proofs of a
steady improvement in the con
dition of our agricultural people
may be mentioned, more attractive
homes and school houses. Paint
and architectural symmetry are
more in evidence than ever before.
Barns and other needful buildings
on the farms are more substantial
and attractive in appearance. There
are fewer stumps in fields, lands are
better improved, the best modern
farm machines are steadily sup
planting the old-time implements.
The spirit of progress is in the air
and even the thriftless are catch
ing its inspirations.
“There are more good country
roads than ever before in the his-
tory of Georgia, and their number
is yeaily on the increase. Thus the
farmers are In many places enjoy
ing better facilities lor getting their
products to the neighboring market
and the expense of hauling i» pro
portionately decreased.
“One is not obliged to visit the
large cities of Georgia to note the
signs of improvement. The smaller
towns ere in many instances vieing
with the larger ones and even with
the cities in the improvement and
care of their street?. Many places
of 2,000 inhabitants and even under
have electric lights and water
works. Among the most promising
signs of improvement are the many
new and handsome courthouses in
the county s<-uts of Georgia.
“The manufacturing interests of
Georgia arc in u healthy condition,
except the furnaces for proluo>iig
pig iron. T)j<> reason for the unfa
vorable condition of the furnaces is
that the prioa of pig ijcn has fallsu
so low tint there is IP tic or no profit
in its pio lucl' n.
“The Hon. Hui vie J ?rdin is dob g
a great work for the agricultural
interests of Georgia in the organ
ization of farmers’ institutes anrt in
his efforts to spread useful infor
mation on every point of inter est
to our planters
“The great railway systems that
traverse oar State, the Central,
Southern and Atlantic Coast Line
(which now includes the former
Plant System) ore exhibiting devel
opment along all agricultural Hues
in the tensions which depend on
them for transportation facilities
“Another great source of inform
ation to our farmers is found in the
numerous fairs, where exhibitions
of agricultural products, improved
farm inplemeuta and the best breeds
of cattle for the dairy and the mar
k'd and of all kinds of farm animals
arouse umhi.’iou in our people to
keep up with the procession, and
allow no others to surpass them in
enterprise end thrift.
“I s is the constant effort of the
Genredepartment of agriculture
t > r<t‘< r /otn lo every wav the ina*r.
esis of our farmers and of every
si us css i-!fi r throughout the
hol'd' rs o- rhe great Empirs State of
