Othor ltereatlng Item**
Akktn'in, Sept. 1.—(Special.)—Accord
ing to Inlormaiiton received at (the Agrl-
ouJtur.U Department .the sermon that
bus been so persistently preached to
Southern farmers with “plant more
com” os a texit is ait hist bearing fruit.
Corn will, in uiil probability, be export
ed direct from Saivamvaih to Liverpool
fails fall. The South, end especially
Georgia, will, besides, furnish to the
United Sdaltea, and to foreign coun'triea
also, 'a large amounit of the com that
Is used .this year. In the Southern
states ithe corn crop is an unusually
large one and a splendid yield Is expect-
ed. On the other hand, in the East and
West itne crop Is nearly ruined.
In the West farmens are feeding
wheat to laheir stock because of the
low prices, $nd what ifttle corn they
have been ifoptunaite enough to raise.
Is being marketed because of 'the fact
<!ma>t corn is much higher prloed than
wheat. The Western Antes absorb a
large om6umt of born every 'year, and
this season they must look to the South
now to furnish a large majority of the
supply. The acreage nere Is larger than
ever before and the crop Is In mugnlfl-
cent condition. Corn fields u.re In uimost
flourishing State. Reports from the
Country are glowing ones and every
person who has been on the farm In
the last few weeks say the Stalks «re
ell higher thorn ever seen before, that
the eats are largr and 'that there are
more ears to si> Stalk thum has been
known In u great many seasons.
The shortness of the Western crop
will necessitate a demand upon other
sources and It rests on the South espe
cially to furnish the West with corn.
Reports are to the effect 'that Sn-
vannalh has offered Liverpool for direct
and Immediate export a. large amount
of corn.

COUCH BACK IN ATLANTA.
Atlantia, Sept. 1.—(Special.—Chief of
Police Burner of Macon reached At-
lari.a this morning, having in custody
Alexander Oouch and M. R. Dewer, an
employe of Couch's. Couch still had
$476.60 of tho $500 with which he
skipped out 'lust rilght. Palmer Jonas,
the negro soldier who had entrurtefd
the money to Couch to keep for him,
was overjoyed to get back wihalt re
mained. At least, he wus glad to see
the money In sight again, for Chief of
Police Conolly has taken charge of tho
funds until he makes an investigation
of Jones' title to It. It Is net a com
mon thing for one of Uncle Sam's pri
vate soldiers 'to be carrying $600 around
in his pockets loose, and the chief
wants to be satisfied thult Jonor Is o. k.
before settling up with him. Couch ex
plains his action On skipping out with
tho money by saying that he was
drunk. He claims that he did not know
what he w.ls ’doing and had no in':'-n-
•tion of stealing. Couch was an lnirmti
of the luiuiic asylum a year ago, hav
ing been committed from Campbell
county. Jones, 'the negro soldier, does
■not seam otuftms to push the prosecu-
'flop, being too happy over the recov
ery of the money, which he claims to
have saved while In the army.
