Pleased With His Work— Associa¬ tion Resolves to Stand Firm In the Present Fi^ht. Delegates from many of the Georgia counties assembled in the hall of the house ot representatives at the cupitol Tuesday morning to attend the session of the Georgia Division of the Cotton Association. One of the featuies of the meeting was the address of Hon. Harvie Jordan, president of the main as¬ sociation, who told of the great success of the association and pointed out how easy it was for the farmers to get their own price for their cotton. President M. L. Johnson, of the Georgia division, called the con¬ vention to order and in a brief speech outlined the object of the meeting, which was to discuss plans for marketing this year’s cotton crop and to arrange for con¬ certed action next year. At the conclusion of his speech Hon. Harvie Jordan was invited to ad¬ dress the convention and was loud¬ ly applauded as he walked up the aisle to the speaker’s stand. Mr. Jordan said he was glad to greet such an audience; that he was not her to discuss political matters, but to take steps to pro¬ mote welfare of the South. Mr. Jordan told of how the farmers during the past six mouths had made history, and had amazed the world. The cotton buyers today, he said, were waiting for the far¬ mer to determine how he would dispose of the crop, and that the farmers now had it in their power to absolutely control, the price of cotton. Mi. Jordan said the cot-, ton buyers were bending their knees to the cotton planters and asking them not to charge too much for the cotton crop this fall. Mr. Jordan did not think any price for the cotton this fall should be fixed until the firmers were in possession of all the facts, and when these fact9 were ascertained, then to be conservative. There was no surplus of the crop, accord¬ ing to Mr. Jordan. The mills of the country were consuming 270, 000 bales of cotton a week, and by September 15th they would have consumed 12,500,000 bales, show¬ ing clearly that there was no sur¬ plus. There never should be any more cotton sold under 10 cents in this country. The people who created the wealth of this country are going to have a voice in mark¬ eting their own crops. Mr. Jordan said lie felt sure the coming crop would be sold at a profit. He assured the delegates that encouraging reports were com¬ ing from everywhere, and that the work of the association up to the present time had been very success¬ ful. Mr. Jordan told of the inves¬ tigation of the department of agri¬ culture at Washington. He said until the organization of the South¬ ern Cotton Association all charges had been white-washed, but the evidenc^ could not of be the turned cotton down, association and the charges were fully sustained. At the conclusion of Mr. Jor¬ dan’s address, Hon. John Wad¬ dell, of Polk county, offered a res¬ olution in which he commended the action of President Jordan in firing E. C. Peters as vice presi¬ dent of the association, and at the same time approving the course pursued by President Jordan and Secretary Cheatham. Bt-fore the resolution was put to the house, Congressman L F. Liv¬ ingston made a speech advocating its passage. Numerous other res olutions were introduced and re terred to the resolution committee. Each delegate submitted a sealed report to the secretary containing a statement ot the condition of the cotton crop, which will be kept a secret. The total number of bales of cotton made in each county last year and the probable number of bales this year was aiso contained in the report. A resolution was introduced by T. K. Massengale that all guano bought by the farmers for 1906 should be enclosed in sacks made of cotton goods, as well as bagging in which cotton was packed and baled. ALMON.

Pnome Mission Notes. ATLANTA CITY MISSION WORK. Miss Rosa Lowe, bead resident in the Settlement Home in Atlan ta says the influence of their work has grown rapidly. Many uew de¬ partments have been added. A new feature for the summer months is the play ground for children who might otherwise be on the streets. These children are under the sa pervision9 of a Christian woman, she 'directs them in legitimate games and insists upon fairness in all plays. SAVE THE PENNIES. Miss Lowe speaks of the extrav agance and carelessness of the poor; to overcome this habit she has introduced the Penny Provi¬ dent Fund. In this way she teach¬ es and encourages the children to saye their pennies. She tells us of an instance in one home where the parents from unavoidable cir¬ cumstances, were without funds to buy some necessity of life and they were relieved of this by the chil¬ dren being taught to save the pen¬ nies, had accumulated a sufficient amount to tide over this need. THE DAY NURSERY. Many children are cared for daily in the nursery while the mothers are at work. They have also arranged to serve hot lunches for ten cents to the mothers who would, if it were not for this have to go home and eat a cold lunch alone. This shows some of the many different kinds of work that are being done through the Home Mission Society. They begin with the babies and continue to look after and care for the bodies, minds and souls of human beings along through life. SEPTEMBER MEETING.
