GEORGIA CROPS ARE BEST ON RECORD
Atlanta, Ga. —Reports from ail sec
tions of the state tend to indicate a
wave cf prosperity for Georgia this
year. Good crops with fair prices
are predicted. Both the farmers and
business men are optimistic.
Nashville, Ga. —Crop conditions in
Berrien county have not been better j
in ten years. The spring oat yield ;
was above the average and the corn
and cotton yield bids fair to eclipse
any crop year within a decade.
Toccoa, Ga. —Crop conditions in
Stephens county and northeast Geor
gia are good, and indications at the
present time point to a rich harvest.
Lexington, Ga. —Every one in this
county looks forward to a good busi
ness year, good crops and fair prices.
Lafayette, Ga. —Despite bad condi
tions, crop outlook in Walker county is
better than for years. The unusually
favorable outlook is causing the mer
chants to buy in very large quanti
ties for the fall and winter trade.
Douglas, Ga. —The crop outlook in
this county is the finest in its history.
Farmers from every section report ex
cellent crops of corn, peas, potatoes
and sugar cane. Sea island cotton is
above the average, while upland cot
ton is fair.
Zebulon, Ga. —Crops in this section
are equal to the average of the last
two or thre years. Corn is now safe
and is generally good. Cotton that
was well cultivated is looking well
and promises a pretty fair crop.
Columbus, Ga. —Columbus is pre
paring for what the merchants believe
will be one of the best fall seasons
in years. The crops in this section
of the state have been good, although
the hot wave of the past few days
has had a bad effect on cotton. The
stocks new being ordered by mer
chants are the largest bought since
before the panic. Columbus will en
ter the new cotton season with prac
tically no stock on hand in the local
warehouses. The high prices of the
past few weeks resulted in the sale
of thousands of bales here, reducing
the stocks to practically nothing.
Augusta, Ga. —Augusta and Rich
mond county are looking for the
greatest fall business in the history
of the community. The cotton is in
an excellent condition and corn is
almost as good.
Macon, Ga.—An entire decade has
hardly afforded a more prosperous
season for the farmers in Bibb coun
ty. Already truck farming and gar
dening has proved highly profitable.
The abundance of the yield and the
handsome cash returns for sales have
worked to put the early croppers far
ahead of anything done in recent sea
sons.
Jackson, Ga. —Crops in Butts coun
ty are generally declared to be the
best in several years. This is par
ticularly true of cotton, which is sur
passing the expectations of the mos;
sanguine. Unless unforeseen obsta
cles come up within the next few
days this county will produce one
of the largest crops in its entire his
tory. Corn, too, is looking well. The
majority of farmers have harvested
their fodder, which, on account of fa
vorable weather conditions, is up to
the usual high standard of excellence.
Forage crops and truck are looking
well.
Roberta, Ga. —More corn will be
harvested in Crawford county this
year than ever before. Cotton has a
prospect for a larger crop than in 25
years. Other crops fine; large quanti
ties of grain gathered.
Cumming, Ga. With few excep
tionss, the ’ crop outlook for Forsyth
county is the best in years. On low
lands, the corn crop is not so good,
but on high .bottom and upland a
bumper crop is almost assured. Cot
ton is the best ever.
Preston, Ga. —The consensus of ex
pression is, the corn crop is made,
and the best for years. The pea
crop is unusually promising and bids
fair for a fine yield. The cotton
outlook will be shorter than is indi
cated from the luxuriant growth at
tained; forms much more scattered
than usual; on sandy soil, black-ro»t
is affecting its vitality. It has re
quired less expense to make this
crop.
Blue Ridge, Ga. —On account of the
heavy and continuous rains in North
Georgia for the past two months,
there will not be more than a half
crop in our county this year.
Milledgeville, Ga. —Reports received
from the various plantations indicate
a spotted condition of cotton, depend
ing on the character of the soil and
the work given. The red land crops
that are clean are good; some of the
gray land crops very poor.
Fort Gaines, Ga. —Never in the his
tory of Clay county has such ooiti
crops been grown, but cotton crops
are below ten year average at this
time of the year.
Ellijay, Ga. —Corn crops are as
good in Gilmer county this year as
they were last year. In the spring
bottom lands suffered from too muen
rain, but they are now coming out 1
and look promising.
Mcßae, Ga. —The business outlook
for Mcßae and Telfair county has sel
dom been brighter than the present
season promises. Cotton has deterio
rated in the past thirty days, owing
to the ravages of the black rot.
Jesup, Ga. —Crop prospects in the
county cf Wayne are the best in
years. The corn crop is fully made
and the acreage is much larger than
in previous years and the yield is ex
cellent. Both the long and short sta
ple cotton crops are in excellent con
dition.
Conyers, Ga. —Reports fiom each
district of Rockdale county indicate
a good average cotton crop and ex
tra fine corn crop.
Hartwell, Ga. —The crop outlook In!
Hart county is probably the best it
has been for many years. From all
sections of Hart county the universal
opinion is that where crops have been
worked that they are In better condi
tion and the promise of a richer har
vest of any that have been raised
in this section for years.
Jasper, Ga. —The prospects for good
crops are the best in several years.
Upland corn is in fine shape. The
cotton crop will excel any years for
six or eight years past. Other crops
goed. The farmers have just gar
nered the best wheat crop In some
years.
Athens, Ga. —The condition of ttte
crops in this section of the state is
very good. In some spots there has
•been too much rain, and in others
too little, but on an average the crops
are satisfactory. It cannot be said
however, that they are as good as the
crops of last year. Cotton will prob
ably yield about three-fourths of last
year’s crop.
Americus, Ga. —Americus bankers,
merchants and business men gener'al
ly were never before more ,optimistic
upon the advent of the fall season,
and conditions would seem to verify
their belief. A magnificent crop year
in southern Georgia, not only for cot
ton, the money crop, but all others
as well. Farmers here made this
year the finest crop of oats ever
grown in Sumter county, while the
corn crop, already made and ready
for the harvest, will be sufficient for
two years. The same is true of other
crops—hay, potatoes, sugar cane and
tobacco, which are magnificent.
Fitzgerald, Ga. —Crop reports from
Ben Hill county give a very favorable
outlook for this section of the sttae.
The prospects were never better for
cotton and corn.
Hazlehurst, Ga. —The condition of
business in this county this fall will
be governed by the cotton market.
The cotton crop of this section is cut
off about one-third of the usual crop,
and if the price holds up to meet
the shortage, business will be good, if
not business will be depressed. From
a conservative estimation there will
be short, from one-third to one-quar
ter of the present year’s cotton crop
—in this county—caused from blight
and recent excessive rains. There
will be a full corn crop made this
year.
Waynesboro, Ga. —The crop outlook,
as gathered from the loading farmers
of the county, is very bright.
Lawrenceville, Ga. With favora
ble weather continuing throughout the
remaining summer and fall, arid with
a late frost, the indications now arc
that Gwinnett will make one of tut
best crops in several years. There
was a larger acreage of corn planted
than usual, and it is fine. A large
amount of peas and sorghum were
sowed.
Calhoun, Ga. —Crop prospects in
| Gordon county have improved great
ly. The heavy continued rains of the
spring and early summer months
caused streams to overflow bottom
lands and very little corn was plant
ed. The cotton throughout the coun
ty is fine and 'veil fruited, but corn
is poor and short.
Blakely, Ga. —The crop condition*
in Early are as good if not better
than the county has known in many
years. This includes cotton, corn,
peas and cane. ,
Hawkinsville, Ga. —The corn and
cotton crops in Pulaski, according to
the reports of the leading farmers,
are as good as usual and in some
sections above an average. The oat
crop has turned out well. In fact,
it is said that more oats have been
harvested this year than for many
years past.
Carrollton, Ga. —The crop outlook
for Carroll county is only fair. On
account of the rains, cotton is unus
ually large, with but very little fruit
to date. If the seasons are suitable
and the fail late, a good average crop
of cotton will be made in this county.
The leading business men are making
preparations to do a fairly good busi
ness, and if the price of cotton stays
up, trade this fall and winter will
be on the average. Bottom corn has
received great damage on account of
the overflows, and not more than half
a crop can be made. There has been
an unsually large crop of wheat and
oats harvested this year.
Abbeville, Ga. —Wilcox county has
now already made the largest crop in
the history of the county. The farm
ers all made large crops of oats, and
the corn crop is the best ever made
in the county. Acreage in cotton is
larger than ever before, and consid
ered better.
Talbotton, Ga. —The conditions of
the crops are about an average foi
the different sections of the county.
At present cotton indicates 75 per
cent condition and prospect for yield,
while corn will yield about three
fourths of a crop. The bottom corn
is largely a failure throughout the
county.
Statesboro, Ga. —The indications in
this county of the cotton crop are;
to the effect that in the past tan days |
the crop has fallen off at least 10 per
cent, following heavy and continuous
rains.
Douglasville, Ga. —The crop outlook
in Douglas county is good, and the |
crop will probably be a little above
an average crop.
Thomaston, Ga. —Crop conditions
arc favorable for a good yield and
the outlook good for a good fall and
winter business in this section.
Georgetown, Ga.—The cotton crop
in this county, in fact in this section
of the state, is not so good as the
weed would indicate. It is believed
that the crop will be short.
Ringgold, Ga.—The crop ouiiock In
Catoosa county is bad for both com
and cotton. More favorable for sweet
potatoes. The estimate of best judges
is that corn and cotton will fall from
25 to 50 per cent below average of
past ten years. So much rain here
that fanners were unable to work
their crops.
Homer, Ga.—Rev. W. L. Barker,
who has seen a large part of the
crops in Banks county, says the cot
ton crop is a full crop, and that the
upland corn is fine, but little corn oa
bottom land. There will be 00 per
cent of a cotton crop and 15 j*ev
cent corn crop.
Cartersville. Ga.—With crop condi
tions greatly improved in Bartow
county, with a number of new manu
facturing enterprises nearing comple
tion, and with every ore mine in the
county running full blast, it scents a
sure thing that business in Carters
ville and Bartow county this fall wfH
be the best in many years.
Lincolnton, Ga. —Conservative esti
mates place the cotton crop iu this
county at 80 per cent, which is about
5 per cent better than last year. Titr
acreage is about the same. The corn
crop is the finest that has been made
in the county in many years. Ajr
extra large crop of peas, potatoes
hay w'ill also be harvested.
Warrenton, Ga. —From statement*
made by conservative farmers, the
crops in Warren county are excep
tionally good, cotton averaging SO per
cent of normal crop, and the largest
crop cf corn raised in many yeans
will soon be harvested.
Thomson, Ga. —Excessive rains l«.
this county will cause the cottou crop
to fall short of what the farmers have
been anticipating. The per cent will
be about 75 or 80. The corn crop
over the entire county is the hestt
that has been grown in ten or twelve
years. This will average 85 or
per cent.
Savannah, Ga.—From present indi
cations farmers and truck grower*
round about Savannah and Chatham
county will enjoy an unsually flue fall
crop this year. A larger acreage than
usual has been planted and the crop*
are growing finely.
Covington, Ga.—Although there vtt
an unusual amount of rain in thta
county during the months of Mar
and June, the outlook for a good crop
here is very good and business inter
ests are beginning to revive and eve
rything is taking on a hopeful look. It
is the conservative estimate that the
crop will be equally as good as lau»t
year, and many predict that it wUI
be considerably larger.
Reidsville, Ga.—The crop outlook In
this county was never better. There
is not quite as much acreage of cot
ton planted as last year, but it i*
much better. Especially is this true
of sea island cotton. And this county
largely plants that kind of cotton The
corn crops are fine; all crops are
good in this county this year.
Wrightsville, Ga. —Business men of
tins city are very hopeful of a revival
in business affairs this fall. ii> view
of the fact that the crops of the
county are considered good. Farmer*
and business men who are in louca
with the situation are confident that
the cotton crop will this year be
slightly above the average; the cane
and sweet potato crop generally over
the county w r as never better. Many
farmers have feed stuffs abundantly,
having made a splendid oat and bay
crop.
Cleveland, Ga. —The crops of this
county are not as good, on an aver
age, as usual, owing to so much rain.
Crops will fail short at least um*-
fourth.
Eastman, Ga. —Crop prospects in
Dodge county were fine until thirty
days ago. Since then heavy rains;
have worked material damage to the
crop, and it is estimated have dam
aged the cotton crop from 20 ta ZU
per cent. The business outlook, how
ever, for fall and winter trade looks
especially encouraging. Corn and
cane crops throughout this section are
very fine.
Haddock, Ga. —The crop conditions*
in Jones county are very satisfactory.
The condition of the corn crop give*
promise for a large harvest of thia
plant; in fact, farmers of this section
claim that more corn will be made
this season than has been made in
many years. Cotton is In a flourish
ing condition.

in the history of this county have the
farmers had as fine crop as this year.

the corn crop is certainly the best,
ever made, and cane, potatoes, pin
ders and peas promise an abundant
yield. Cotton is a fair crop, though
the hot suns of August have injured
it to some extent.
Jesup, Ga. —Wayne county farmer*
have diversified their crops very free
ly this year and asfde from the very
large crop of corn and cotton to b«
harvested, hundreds of acres have
been devoted to growing velevt bean*,
peanuts, chufas, sugar cane and po
tatoes, all of which promise an ex
cellent yield. More fat beef cattle
and hogs will be sold from the lam
in this county than ever before,
