cause splendid crops to be produced
m the fall.
Every fertilizer concern in tho
{State has prepaied for a heavy sale
and delivery of fertilizer this spring
and will be able to supply the in
creased demands of the planters iui-;
mediately. |
The splendid crops produced in;
Georgia last year are attributable to ,
the increased use of commercial fer- j
tillzers last year,--Georgia being sec-,
ond only to South Carolina in the
! amount of commercial fertilizer used
per acre. As a result of this extra
demand for commercial fertilize"
there is an increased activity in the
sale of cotton seed meal by the on
mills, of the state as cotton seed meal
:s the source 'of nitrogen so essential
to plant food in commercial fertllezer. j
The splendid articles recently print j
ed In the various daily, weekly and
agricultural papers on the value of
cotton seed meal wheu used ip this i
way /«* » fertUUer have Increased j
the demand for cotton seed meal at J
mills.
At a conlerence held Thursday
night at First Baptist 'church, ar
rangements were made and a build
ing committee apointed to begin at

First Baptist church. The beautiful
l lot just back of the church, facing
j Mary street, will be used for the build
J ing. It is understood that the build-
I ing will cost about thirty-five hun
dred dollars. Messrs A. H. Morgan,
