In fact, it is undoubtedly | itrue that much of the remarkatle I developeut of the raral interests 18 dne more to the influence of | the clubs than to any other eanse. - Thesa clubs are highly beneficial Lo matter what particular pbnsei they assume. Some of then are ‘principally gatherings for socin.l! purposes, and these do much to ] ‘make country life pleasant and to | enlighten and lend a charm to | ‘what many consider its privations. Other elubs are for the purpose of conference and mutual improve ‘ment, becoming really agrienl tural schools with weekly or semi ‘monthly sessions; and others have business fealures of great value to the members, securing to them the benefit of combinalions and i co-operation. These lutter are, when conducted with diseretion } and on sound business principles, of very great value to the mem- ’ bers, and offen result in the sav. l ing of large nmonnts of money to| the farmers, besides obtaining for them consideration which as indi viduals would not be accorded {hem ir business transactions. ! These clubs exist in every sec- : tion of the State. The consilera- ‘ tion they give to all the questions nffecting the agricultural interests is in the highest degree to be com mended.

It is true that where itheru is more than one paper in a town the business is conduacted llu:';_;nly upon the *“‘cut throat” sys 'tem. If, however, one of these ‘pnpem refuses ‘o become a mem 'ber of the argociation the other ;cnuld not do so without injury to vits business, liet the papers |speak out and see what can be | dore, | Tur Hawkiorillo Dispateh | wants to know what the bachelor !ee‘zitm-s of the DAawsoN JOURNAL land Macon News know about ,com‘!ing.
