I got to Sggerin on the crop that peach orchid (nought bring an hitjes passes the bounds of reason to look at the calcerlation. Spose we allow that each tree will bar a half-bushel of peaches, an that they bring in net 50 cents a bushel, 5,000 bushels will be $250 00 clar moqey. Sposin the same 100 acres was planted in cotton and brought a bale to every two acres, how much fertilize! would hit take to make those 50 bales cotton ? Then all ihe gol burn ed hard work of preparrin the grown, the piantin theeboppin out, the homg and the plowin, then the ginning and the haulm An, an, I’ll be dod rot if I didn’t leave out tbe pickin—pity too you couldn’t leave it out and let them durn fufu fel lers who wants to fix the price of cotton before hits grown, iet them go to theFiilipino Irelands and buy it at 5 cents a pound—an hits a com- in to that. We ole fellows may not live to see hit, but before many years pass by thar will be a great change in the agricultural persutes of ole Georgy. Yes sir; within ten years the staple crops of this ole state will be peaches, pecans and watermil- yune—an you fellers are rite in the cream of tb9 deestrick what 19 goin to raise em. Now, if I had a hundred acres cf good corn land I would set out 10,000 peach trees on it, but would first plant 5,000 pecan nut trees, setting em 30 feet apart each way, marking each one with a big stake—then down the center of each row of pe cans, I would plant, 15 feet apart, ray early peach trees (an I know of three fine ferrieties) then if blight or yail&rs or the Sang Hosea scale tuk ray peach trees why thar was my pecans agrowing and a growing un til, in praps ten yers they would be 50 feet high and each a barin of a bushel of nuts at $5.00 and thar is another $25,000 cron for yer. Buddy, you young feller, dont let a good thing pass you by, dont let the Hon. Brinson and Judge Jones and Curne! Smith mernoperliae this business, but take my advice if you haiut got ten acres of land, git it, git it some how. You only w 7 ant ten acres to be inderpenduit ten yers from now. Plant it out with 50 trees to the aero, 500 two yer old pecan trees will cost you only $75.00 and when planted take care of them and they will take care of you later erloug. Old man! You sitting thar a won- derin what will becoms of the fam iiy if you drapped off. I’ll tell you, if you will go an put in 5 or 10 acres in pecan trees you will bo a puttin in of a insurance policy fer yer fam ily—thats what! Lemrae tell yer! I speak from age and experi- uns. Fifteen years ago I planted 100 two yer old pecan trees and each one is now as good to me as a hun dred dollar U. S. bond; better, by golly, for they pay higher inlerest. Then while you are planMng, bar n mind to plant too, the Mamouth Japan chestnut and JapaD w’alnuts. Oh! I tell you thars a good time a coming, if you fellers,old and young only take my advice—plant these nut trees, plant peaches between the pecans. So, I am glad Mr. Editor, that I saw 7 your piece about the peach farm for what 1 have written yer, may induce many a poor, hard-working feller ter put on his thinking cap and drap into this new industrial procession.

The high encomiums paid Mrs. R. C. Neely is gratifying to her friends who knew 7 her worth in the U. D. C. We know 7 that no better se lection for the office of treasurer could have been made. “It will bs many a day before Co- iurabus will have assembled within her gates again such a body of bright women. It is but truth to say that the gentlemen who attend ed the convention were not only deeply interested, but somewhat surprised. They expected to see s convention of representative Geor gia women, but they were hardly prepared for the many easy and graceful public addresses, the per fect knowledge of parliamentary usage, and the splendid executive ability cf the presiding officers, that proved such interesting features. And not ouly this, but the amount of solid work that was disposed of was a trifle surprising. After the opening session the convention set tled down to business, anu aimosf the entire three days were devoted to the methodical consideration of the various matters brought before the body. “At the conclusion of yesterday’s session the recording secretary,Mrs. R.O, Neely, of Waynesboro,read her minutes to the eonveutIon.aod,with one or two very slight corrections made, they were adopted by the convention. Mrs. Neely did this work in a splendid manner and de serves much praise. In her minutes the work of the convention is cov ered completely and yet in very concise manner. Her work as sec retary was very generally compli mented, and the convention show ed its appreciation by electing her to a state office for another term of two years—that of treasurer.” Mr. J E. Tarver, one of Augusta’s leading hardware merchants visit ed R. E Meiton last Saturday. He was accompanied by his mother Mrs. N. S. Tarver and sister. Mrs.T. W. Pilcher.

The ditch is, he says, about a yard wide and two feet deep, or more. The vines took root in the ditch and the potatoes have filled ihe ditch twice now, averaging 3 or 4 pounds a piece, and is filling up again.He is getting tired of cleaning out the ditch crop, tho he hasn’t touched the main crop which is sticking up like cypress knees all ever It thick as fleas. 0Miil YQihEXPEGTEDl lKfl»WaAT»r0!i»80LB> — I have several pair of pants on which a deposit has been made that I will sell at a close price to get rid of them.

Your resolu tions were soon gone, but your hopes were great and prospects were fine. You planted for ten bales of cotton to the plow, which you expected to get 10 cents per pound for. Six hundred dollars for your cotton crop to say nothing of corn, peas, potatoes, watermelons aud other small crops. In other word9 you thought you would make some thing like fifty “rocks” per month, besides having most cf your pro visions at home. No wonder you were light-hearted and whistled merrily as you stepped lightly be hind ihe plow that turned tho fer tile soil that wa9 so sure to bring you in such a handsome income. That’s what made you sing — “Got no money but I will have some.” But there was no use of a man doing so well, stinting himself and family, when you could get what you wanted and pay for it when you 9old your cotton. So you went to town and told the merchant bow much cotton you were planting and how much cotton you expected to make. Tho merchant drew up a little paper, got you to sign it, and than you could get anything you wanted just like you had the money. And you bought eomo things that you could have done without, but you wanted it and knew you could pay for it and you got it. But alas for you, it all went on the book of fate with another 25 per cent, on the regular cash price. And now your crop i3 gathered and your prospective ten bales ha9 come short by three balo3 and the ex pected 10 cents per pound is off 25 per cent and your other crops are short. In fact everything seems to be shrunk up except your account and that is twice as much as you thought it was, and you find your little cotton ^crop hardly equal to the emergency, to say nothing of the new buggy and nice furniture and a hundred and one other things that you had planned to get to make your wife and children hap py- Thus your hopes that budded so brightly with the leaves in the pring have also faded and fallen with them, and you find yourself with just a little money and a lot of of experience, both of which will greatly benefit you it you will use them in the right way It is not the man that makes the mo9t mon ey that succeeds, but the one that knows how to spend it. Be sure you spend each penny where It will buy the biggest values. The Cash Concern submits to you a few prices to consider before you buy, and if after careful comparison you find that you can beat them we advise you to do it, but if you can’t find belter values for the money we will greatly appreciate your patron age. We want to show you what we will do. It is an easy matter to say, “we are the leaders of low prices,” “we make quick saies and small profits.” These old time-worn sayings are as apt to come from the lips of some old hundred per center as any une else.
