Mr. Turner was followed by Col T B
Cabaniss of Forsyth. He said he came
here for the purpose of eujoying himself,
and would have dona sb had he not been
® “led upon to make a speech. What
be did not know about farm-
lnK , ' w , 0 ' 1 'd , largo volumes
ftbd what ho aid know would occupy very
little space. He knew that tbe farming in
tbe State of tbe Georgia fotmtd the basis of
our prosperity. Ha felt too keenest and
liveliest interest in farming and believed in
the methods c-f success adopted by the far
mers of MoDroe. The question was whether
it is best for the farmer to isolate himself,
to Hland alooe and depend npon himself or
to associate with his fellow farmers and ex
change and interchange ideas. Ha b.lieved
that all present would say It is better to
organizs. What has been the mat
ter with our agricultural pur
suits has been tho want of such organi
zation. There were two olnbo in Middle
Georgia whose reputation was not confined
to the limits of the State The fame of the
Morroo and Holton clubs hsd extended far
into tho Southern States and with it their
good influence. It was the leaven that
would leaved the entire agricultural inter
ests of the South. Tho speaker called
attention to tbe State fair, to bo hold in
Macon next October. He said that fair
offered lurge inducements to the oonnties
of the State to make good displays The
club premiums were now almost twice os
large tut thoso of last year. W'hut was ac
complished then by the Bolingbrnke club,
headed by its enegetic president? With a
few months' notice it went forward and
won the first premium. Now, sh,dl Mon
roe take a step baeswsr.iV She has a for
midable rival in Hottonaudshe must march
to win tbe prize again.
Colon:! Tons Hardsman was called for
and sai l: I would ask If there is any man
present, who has ever gone out upon his
term after a storm and fuand that the hail
had beaten down hispottoo, that tbe water
gaps h *d been broken, and the water had
washed bin land into gullies, and there con
templating tbe scen-i of destruction frond
wor.'s in tne ritnal to express what he
thonght? He wsa in that fix The storms
bad pl tjed through his old fr.ms and ho
now found no words to express Himself. He
was remindt d of the old negro who aaw his
pWce doelroyed and rtuhid ont to say,
"Trust in God will do well enough, but
when it oomes to Provideoee, Providence
dies about as much barm as good." Col,
Hardeman paid a glowing uibute to Mon
roe oonoty, saying that sho was one of the
best agricultural o innlies in Ihe Stale
other county had broader acres and moro
opacity for good farmiog, if the pejplo
only kuow it. Ho believed more in the Old
South tbna the New South. We made our
selves groat before the war. We were left
with noiiiiug wiieu tbe war eu.ieu, abdnow
wo command the admiration of tho whole
lid. To th: yonog-
some to dance. In this way the afternoon I
w.i9 spout until the train oiiue along at 5 •
o'clook, when the going away of the city
folk seemed the signal tor the teams of the
neighboring farmers to be hitch
ed up, and then iu evety
dir ctioo throngh the woods which
environ Bolingbroke the people drove off to
their homes.
Toe day was perfect. Tho wind blew a
trills strong and cool nntil about 11 o'clock
and then the sun seem to disperse the wind,
leaving tbe day all that oonld have been de
sired. It seemed as thoDgh the weather
clerk is as kindly disposed as fortune to this
famoos oouuty.
It should bs said that the people of Mon
roe vied with esc x other iu tusking every
body enjoy themselves anil the occasion.
Tbese good people are such adepts in this
hue that not a solitary failure was known.
Dnriug tbe afternoon the reporter was
lifted into a boggy drawn by Farmer Wad-
ley’s family hcroe Billie, and driv-n over
the plantation. Tnere are filteen hnndrod
k -res of it, the hulk being chocolate land,
the rest gray. To till this vast acreage re
quires betveen oue hundred and filtj and
two huudr.d bunds. ' .
■I asked Mr. Wadley how many negroes
he gave employment to. He replied that
there were fifty families, averaging about
four adult hands to tbe family, and chil
dren inmn table.
(low ic y- u get along with them?”
Just as well os I could want to. I have
no trouble with them, though occasionally
I find it necessary to ■ptunpab -t, hats*
bnt this is seldom. Negroes make toe best
labor io tbe woild if yoo know how to man
age them. If I wont brains and skill I go
to the wnite mao; but it l want brawn I go
to tho negro. You must do the btalu work
for him, bot he can do the work."
You heard Judge G.b Wright say that
■ he land hero was "rod enough without ler-
tiliz rs if (lowed r.tep enoug
"Yes, I heard him, but I don’t agreo with
him. I hove ono bandied and seventy-live
tons of commercial f-rtiliz-rs spread upon
my farm to nay nothing of the tons and
tors of home-made fertilizers.”
Drawing op to a pdeb of soil that was of
a dirk chocolde hue and looked rich enough
for a f&ocy gs'den, though It wasin a laige
field, Farmer Wadley stopped and pointing
to it with his wbtp, said: "This is a brag
acre. It is planted in cotton for tbe next
fair. There is a premium offered fur the
best bale uf cotton from one acre, and tbe
members of tbe oinb have pooled their it
tereeta and we will compete with for the
ptemiam ”
Although fifteen hundred acres require
considerable looking atter, it in done so
woll that eaob fl -ld is plowel with a r.gn
lirity and uu.furmliy that is remark
able, and the laofi has tbe appear

dressed himself, and urged them to stay in
Georgia. I'armiog shou d and oool.t be
mode so pleasant that the boys woald not
want to run off to the city. He then called
attention to the lair unit ut the magi iti.-i ut
exhibit mtde by Mounts at tho last fair,
which commanded the admiration of every
visitor.
Judge Gib Wright, of Albany, was then
introduced by Ooionel Cabaniss. This was
by tur Urn mod uniii-ing and entert lining
speech of the day. He said his views as to
farming wero different from most farmers.
He offered no cncooragement to the yonog
mao to eater Ihe field of farming, for tbeie
was too much farming. He would say to
tho yonng men before him: Yonr fathers
followed an honorablo occupation, bnt it Is
now crowded to death. You will get too
low a price for yonr products. The speaker
relatod in a most amusing way some ct his
own experience, and drew with a master
hand some farm pictures which were to
true to life that tbe farmer audience
laughed loud and long over them. He was
somewhat aevere ou istUUZers, believing
that it tbe soil w,i- turrowwi .Imp
that tbe land io Monroe wonld not
need It. He then related in his inimitable
way how be started out > itli
