With one or two weeks more of sea- i sonnblo weather in tna northern part of j the state, tl.-orgia will hnrvcvt- the j largest corn crop over mu le within hsr ; borders. In almost every county in the state the crops is ns ceod r.s the lar. l make. The only disasters have b .-n some local hailstorm'., and the over flowing end destruction of sotno of the river and crook bottoms in different sections during the latter part o; June and tha first of July. In .-.oath r,rid southeast Georgia many farm rs liuv • put the land, from which the oat crop was taken, into *-.Mexican .Tune’’ corn, which at this timo promises a j. .od yl-’id. This Is a wry wail corn, mot excellent for bread and hominy, and much liked by the people of that part of the .-data Tiiie, 1.-iyro corn crop.
