The chicken sale at Bamesville Wednesday of last week, while a suc cess and resulting in good money for many poultry raisers, has taught some lessons which must be taken into consideration, or else the chicken industry will go as all the past efforts of the farmers to secure some money making business aside from the grow ing of cotton. More than 200 people from this county participated in the sale last week and received in payment for the chickens $1,410.19. The sale in cluded 616 hens, 1,272 fryers, and 62 roosters, the total weight being 6,386 pounds. This made an aver age of 73 cents per chicken. The growers were charged 1 cent each to pay the expense of handling them, that is weighing the chickens, figur ing the value, giving check and put ting them in the car. This made a total of $19.50 expense for all this work. Barnesville put in this car its 6,386 pounds of chickens, and then 3,645 pounds sent here from Forsyth and 2,746 pounds from Thomaston, all of which it took to make the car, which was necessary to secure the price which was paid for these chick ens, which was higher by several cents a pound than any other firm could be induced to offer. The fact is, Messrs. E. P. Drexel, H. A. Cliett and D. L. Anderson, who generously devoted their time in the effort to help the chicken growers to get a good price, were up against the hardest kind of a proposition and were embarrassed by the develop ments leading up to the sale of this | car. When they went into the mar | ket to get an offer for the car of chickens they found it difficult to get any kind of an offer. Risser Bros. Cos., of Philadelphia, under date of June 23rd, wrote them th3t they had been so much disappointed in Geor gia because they had failed to get car lots when promised car lots that they did not expect to make any of fer, but if a car was loaded they would bid on it. They said they had sent a man to different points and then had failed to get enough chickens to make it profit able. Mr. Cliett would not let it stop at that and wired them again and received the offer of 18 cents for hens, 28 cents for fryers and 7 cents for roosters, which was higher by several cents per pound than they could get offered from any Georgia or Florida firm. Risser Bros. Cos. offer was with the guarantee that there would be 14,000 pounds of poultry for the car. Only two other offers were received at all, one from J. A. Kelly of Atlanta, and the other from Williamson & Dennis of Jack sonville, Fla. Messrs. Drexel, Cliett and Ander son finally guaranteed to Risser Bros. Cos. the full car with the understand ing that if the tonnage was not ob tained their man should be paid SIOO for his expenses. Thus it will be seen what a chance these gentle men took in behalf of the chicken growers of this vicinity. These gentlemen were disappoint ed at the treatment accorded them by a number of people. All that they did was solely in the interest of tho community and they did not re ceive or expect a penny out of it. Some people got impatient because they could not be waited on the min ute they reached here. Some who brought chickens peddled them around town in an effort to sell them privately, thus defeating the very purpose of the cooperative sale. There ought not to have been a chicken bought or sold here that day except to Risser Bros. Cos. This is absolutely the only way to build up the chicken industry. If the farmers and housekeepers of Lamar county expect to grow chick ens for sale and then be forced to peddle them out to the few buyers in Barnesville or some nearby town they had better stay out of the chicken business entirely. But if they want to really build up the in dustry where it will mean money and good money raise chickens so that every two or three months Risser Bros. Cos., or some other big firm will know that they can get a solid car of fine chickens when their representa tive comes hero for them and the price will then be several cents high er than they can get elsewhere and there will be no doubt about the sale for cash of every chicken that is ready for the market. The poultry growers can create a profitable cash market and build up to immense proportions the chicken industry if they will work together and with those who are trying to help them do it or they can make such a result absolutely impossible. It is earnestly hoped they will join in the only method possible to make the chicken business amount to any thing—COOPERATIVE GROWING AND MARKETING.

Certain kings of England are known In history by various nicknames, but It Is interesting to note that these names did not appear until a number of years after their death. Edmund, for example, died In 1016, and Is first spoken of as Ironside In 1297. Edward I appears in an almost contemporary chronicle as “cil oo les lunges Jambes” —he with the long legs—and did not become Longshanks till about 1600.

Dear Mr. Hardy:— Well, I had the biggest time of my life and every other old soldier as well. Richmond certainly opened her heart wide. I don’t believe she could have done better. I wish I could muster up language sufficient to explain it. I have not gone over any of the battlefields but Petersburg. I went by myself as I know it. I think I know it better than I could be told. I found the place where I was wound ed, although the whole battlefield is planted in peanuts, except where the blow up was. There are pine trees there. I also found the place where I got the countersign from the yankees. If you recollect Stonewall captured five hundred head of beef oxen. The lay of the ground is not changed except the breast works are leveled down to plant goobers on. (I think it is a shame). I will stay over here for a week or two, then my idea is go over the most of the battlefields around Rich mond and those in the Shenandoah valley. I guess it will take me until frost. I am stopping with my nephew and neice, Mr. and Mrs. May hew. Mr. Mayhew works in the navy yard and carried me through most of the departments. It is marvelous. I saw your father. He can tell you how I was received and how I was hand shaken. Kindest regards to everybody, GEO. W. SHERAM. AGENTS WANTED To sell tne Original Watkins Pro ducts. Good city territory still open.

Franklin of Meansville, a substantial citizen and farmer, was in Barnesville Saturday and was warmly greeted by friends. Mr. Franklin made 8 bales of cot ton last year in spite of the boll weevil and he is expecting to do even better this year. He says the way he handles the little pest is by catch ing him and killing him, hiring chil dren to pick him from the stalks and picking up all the fallen squares. He has already picked and burned 5000 weevils from 32 acres and is keeping right up with this work. Air. Frank lin believes this is the best way to make cotton under boll weevil condi tions and he is certainly succeeding to a considerable extent with his plan. He thinks others should fol low this plan, too, and make at least a partial crop.
