STATE NEWSJJf INTEREST
Brief News Of Importance Gathered
From All Parts Of
The State t,
West Point.—That Weit Point will
soon have a pontoon bridge is an
assured fact. A telegram was re¬
ceived signed by Congressmen Hef¬
lin and Wright stating that the bill
for this ridge had passed the house
of representative, having passed the
senate several days ago. The mes¬
sage also stated that government en¬
gineers will soon be on hand to start
work at once. West Point people re¬
ceived this news with enthusiasm, as
the absence of the old bridge has
caused much inconvenience in regard
to transportation facilities from one
side of the river to the other. As
soon as this bridge is completed, es¬
tablished direct connection from one
part of the town to the other, busi¬
ness will begin to assume a somewhat
normal proportion. However, it will
be some months before usual condi¬
tions will prevail. As things now
stand the only means of crossing the
river are either walking the Atlanta
and West Point railroad trestle, about
a mile and a half out of the way, or
being carried across in bateaux. The
river divides the town, the business
section being on the west side, while
fully three-fourths of the population
reside on the east side. At present
there is no way to carry supplies from
one side to the other, except as men¬
tioned above.
Memorial Commission Plan Monument
Atlanta.—The Georgia Memorial
mission is planning for work to build
a great memorial to the more than
1,700 men from Georgia who died in
the European war, and members of the
commission are working diligently in
this and every district of the state.
Following the memorial services which
the commission held November 11, or¬
ganization is being extended into ev¬
ery county in Georgia. The mem¬
bers of the commission, two of whom
have been appointed by the governor
in every district, are appointing sub¬
commissioners in every county, and
these groups will have charge of the
appeal which will be made later to the
people of Georgia to contribute to the
monument. It will cost five hundred
thousand dollars and will be in the
nature of a memorial building which
will house the archives of and historic
possessions of the state. There will
be an auditorium in the building and
places where artistic treasures may
be preserved.
Glynn Working For Rice Station
Brunswick.—For the purpose of in¬
specting lands and looking into the
possibility of establishing a rice ex¬
periment station in Glynn county, F.
H. Abbott of the Georgia Land Own¬
ers’ Association and Prof. J. R. Fain
of the state college of agriculture were
in this city and county and^ visited
Camden county on a similar mission,
inspecting a rice plantation in that
county, which is already under culti¬
vation. It has recently been announc¬
ed by the government department of
agriculture that it intends to establish
in the South an experiment rice plan¬
tation, and that a large amount of
money will be devoted to the station,
as it is intended to extensively exper¬
iment in the rice cultivation through¬
out this section. The location of the
station has not as yet been decided
upon.
Candler County Hog Sale
Metter.—Candler county held her
first sale of hogs under the super¬
vision of County Agent H. J. Prance.
The sale wa sthe first in this county
under the head of the co-operative
farm bureau. There were sold 186
hogs of 1, 2, 3 and 4 grades. The to¬
tal sale receipts were $2,827.74, an
average of about 9 cents per pound.
The sale is expected to be followed
shortly by another one in greater num¬
ber and finer hogs.
Squadron Leaves Savannah
Savannah.—Moving as a squadron,
ten French trawlers left this port for
Maine to be used by the East Coast
Fisheries company. M. G. Kennedy,
chief engineer for the corporation,
and 48 men, came here to take the
vessels to the East.
Rockdale Suffers Severe Flood Loss
Conyers.—A survey of damage to
Rockdale bridges by the recent flood
shows a loss of between $75,000 and
$100,000. This is a very serious finan¬
cial loss to Rockdale, which is one
of the smallest counties in the state
Census Of Brunswick Shows 21.00C
Brunswick.—Brunswick’s populatior
according to George Beemer, repre
senting a large manufacturing com
pany, who has been making a house
to-house canvass, is approximately 21,
000. Mr. Beemer, with his assistants
has been engaged in the work foi
some time and he states that a verj
accurate census of the city has been
taken. This estimate, he says, does
not include several suburbs, which
have grown up so thickly within th«
past year, but which are within th<
city’s limits.
