BIG YIELD OF PEACHES
SEEMS NOW ASSURED
Trees Here Bending Under
Weight.
Fruit Finest in Years—
No insects in Evi
dence Here.
•
With) half a million peach trees
fruited to their capacity with healthy
young peaches, the big orchards about
Americus give assurance now of the
finest crop in years, and the owners
of these magnificent tracts of waving
trees are correspondingly elated at
the golden prospect.
The young peaches, now th>e size of
partridge eggs, are firm and of a
healthy appearance, and show no evi
dence of the sting of the much-dread
ed curculio. -
This is the bug that produces the
worm which attacks the peach, ren
dering its worthless.
In the half dozen big orchards ne ir
Americus very little evidence of the
curculio is to be seen, and orchard
owners are vigorously spraying trees
in order to ward off this plague. They
do not anticipate any danger from the
,: nsects this season.
And if half the peaches now on the
trees remain, a bumper crop and brok
en boughs are assured for the weight
will be too great.
Americus orchards will begin ship
ping the first peaches of the early va
rieties late in May, and as other va
rieties ripen the packing house force
will be kept busy until the Elberta
crop is shipped, between July sth
and 20th. The Elberta season is a
short and busy one.
Out at the Bagley-Gober Orchard
Co.'s plant, where 250,000 trees will
yield a fine crop this year, all prep
ara'iops are being made for handling
the crop expedit'ously. The same is
true of the Raymond, Ware, Hansford
and Waddell orchards, among the fin
est in this section.
Several hundred car loads of peach
es will be shipped from Americus nnO
the crop will be a profitable one this
year.

Atlanta Musical Associ
ation Awake to This
City’s Initiative.
Atlanta, Ga., April 13, 1910.
Send five hundred proof slips your
editorial of Tuesday on Americus High
School graduates at Atlanta grand
opera festival.
FRANK WELDON,
Manager Atlanta Musical Festival
Association.
The above telegram was received by
the Times-Recorder yesterday morn
ing.
'Last night’s express carried the five
hundred slips of the editorial referred
to.
As stated before, the fact that the
graduating class of the High School
here is to attend the operas at Atlanta,
and have the privilege of hearing the
greatest singers in the world, in the
masterpieces of the world’s operatic
composers, has awakened much inter
est and aroused general commendation
throughout the states
The Atlanta Musical Festival Associ
ation, that provided the $60,000 guar
antee under which the operas are'giv
en, appreciates both the novelty and
the wisdom of the course displayed
here and intends to bring it to the at
tention of the school authoriiies and
the graduating classes of every city
and town, and of every educational in
stitution, in Georgia.
It is not at all unlikely as a result
of the wide publicity given to the fact
that the Americus graduates are to
have th's grand privilege that a num
ber of other cities will follow the sens
ible example set by Americus and that
their graduates will also be given the
opportunity to hear the singers whom
the world has crowned as the masters
of song.
And incidentally the enterprise of
Americus will once more bo widely ad
vertised.
Americus is a better known city to
day than ever before in its history. Ad
vertising of various kinds is what is
do'ng the work of concentrating at
tention on this city and county, adver
tising will continue to draw public at
tention this way. And advertising is
going to make this a greater city in
every respect.
TWO HUNDRED WERE

Washington, Penn., April 13.—Two

Manifold mine No. 1, of the Alleghany

were badly burned. The two hundred

There are, however; many honest

How It Grew from 1,600
to City of 12,000 People
In fifteen Union S. C., grew
from a dead 1,600 people to a
bustling manulaimiring city with a
population of 12,000 and with future
rapid growth assured.
What did it? Confidence and push
on tlie part of its people, a get-to
getkier-and-work-for-the-town spirit
that started Union on the up grade
and soon put it ou the highway to
prosperity.
That, in a nut shell, was the story
that Mr. B. F. Arthur, of Union, told
the members of the Board of Trade at
the meeting on Wednesday night.
'Mr. Arthur was called on by Pres
ident Shiver, as one of the new mem
bers of the organization, to tell those
present what Union had accomplished
Union, said the speaker, fifteen
years ago was in almost a comatose
state. It pulled itself together, de
cided that it could go ahead just as
well as other cities were doing. It
began an industrial movement, or
ganized a small cotton factory compa
ny and started as a manufacturing
point. Today there is nine million dol
lars invested in industrial plants
there.
One of tine important industries of
the city today is a knitting mill, it
turns out 25,000 pairs of hosiery a
day. it started in 1902 with $4,000 cap
ital. From that small beginning i
has grown to its present handsome
proportions. Other industries have
also grown from small beginnings in
to plants of considerable importance.
As soon as Union had demonstrated
that its people meant business, Mr.
Arthur said, capital began to come iu
to help from other points Today
capital is not bard to find when Un
ion starts anything new.
Mr. Arthur pointed out that Union
had no such country as surrounds this
city, had nothing to compare with the
capital this city has, and was not in
the same class as Americus when it
reached out for industries. Work and
determination got them.
The same spirit applied by Ameri
cas will get industries for this city
that will rapidly develop the city and
stimulate its growth beyond all ex
pectations.

10 REBUILD STORE AND
THEN TO OCCUPY IE.
Mr. Ansley to Reconstruct
Property.
Architect T. F. Lockwood, of Colum
bus, is now finishing plans for the
rebuilding of the structure at the cor
ner of Jackson and Forsyth) streets,
the property of Mr. Charles L. Ans
ley.
This is one of the best known busi
ness properties in Americus. For many
years it occupied a prominent position
in a mercantile way, but for" the past
year or two it has been unoccupied.
It was bought in 1905 by Mr. Angle/,
who had in mindv the occupying of it
by his own mercantile establishment.
'Mr. Ansley recently decided to push
his plans, complete the reconstruction
and renovation of the building, and
take possession of it as soon as pos
sible. Architect Lockwood was en
gaged, has completed his plans, and
work will begin in a few days.
When the alterations have beir
completed the old building will not be
recognized. It will be in fact, a re
built building. The entire front will
be removed and a fine pressed brick
front with great plate glass show win
dows substituted The Forsyth/ street
side will undergo extensive changefe
that will entirely alter its appear
ance, with additional magnificent win
dows there for the display of merchan
dise. The floor will be lowered to the
level of the streets, and the entire in
terior will be renovated. When com
pleted the store will be one of the
most attractive in Americus.
In preparation for the removal, Mr.
Ansley today announces the beginning
of a great sale that will take in every
department of his extensive stock, and
will offer to the public some remark
able bargains. He announces his pur
pose in a half page advertisement on
page 4, and cite* a few of the host
of tempting propositions that await
the public. The clearing out of stock
preparatory to removal will be push
ed as rapidly as poss'ble, as when the
workmen begin on tbe building there
will be no effort spared to push the
alterations to completion.
This affords an exceptional oppor
tunity as it is seldom, indeed, that a
fresh spring and summer stock .s
offered at the very beginning of the
season under such conditions as these
Only the magnitude of the stock leads
Mr. Ansley to inaugurate the sale at
this time.

E0 CHANGE CHARTER
To Enable City to Estab

The city must change its charter by

That was the opinion rendered in
writing by City Attorney Lane at the
meeting of the city council last night.
The city attorney also called atten
tion to the fact that the legislature
meets on June 3, and that it is neces
sary <o advertise a local bill, such as
this would be, th’rty days before in
troducing it in the legislature.
