LOWEST COTTON CONDITION
ON RECORD.
The monthly crop report, issued .yes
terday by the Department of Agricul
ture, showed the condition of the cot
ton crop on Aug. 25 to be 03.7, as com
pared with 71.9 last month, 70.1 last
year, 72.7 in 1007, and 77.3 in 1906.
The condition in Georgia is reported as
73, compared with 77 for the same
date last year, and a ten-year average
of 70. The States showing the lowest
condition are: Louisiana 48, Oklaho-
Texas 69, Ai is 60, Mil. is
dppi 61, and Alabama 00. All other
States range above 70.
The effect of the Government report
upon the New York Cotton exchange
is thus described in yesterday’s dis
patches
The Government, cotton crop condi
tion issued to-day proved the lowest on
record, but caused only a moderate ad
vance, which was not fully sustained,
the market closing steady at. a net gain
of only 3 to 0 points. The market
opened steady at an advance of 6 to 9
points, on better cables than expected,
and showed little change during the
morning, when trading was quiet. Just
before the Government report was is
sued January contracts were selling
around 12.47, and the best price
reached later was 12. GO, a bulge of
about, 13 points, and a net advance of 20
points from the closing figures of last
•light. Possibly the approach of the
three-day adjournment over Labor
li)uy restricted bull speculation to
jorne extent; at any rate, the demand
proved insufficient to absorb realizing
and selling by local bears, and during
the late trading prices gradually eased
off to within 2 or 3 points of last
night’s finals, with January closing at
12.45 bid, or only 5 points net higher.
The lowest September bureau report
previously on record was in L902, when
the condition was only 04 per cent.
Considering the reduction in acreage,
.Vi compared with last year, the figures
,'n,; H v be made the basis of very bullish
mathematical conclusions regarding
the probable size of the crop, and after
midday many bullish cables wore re
ceived from abroad regarding the pros
pect for future supplies.”
Commenting upon the Government
report Hubbard Bros., of New York,
say—
‘•Perhaps the lowest bureau roport
on record, 63.7, was less of a surprise
\i> the cotton trade than was the esti
mate of Mr. Hester that consumption
oil American cotton last season was
13,116,000 bales. A low condition re
port was to he expected, from the pub
lic and private accounts of the wretch
ed condition of the crop west of the
Mississippi, and the trade was also
prepared for the heavy selling which
had been predicted for the past fort-
night, when the report was made pub
lic, Kvery one bad been told that this
would ho the last- bullish report, and
tthat the youth was only waiting to sell
aoPfon at this time. Very few, how
ever, were aware of the large con
sumption of last season, when the Lan-
casnire mills were closed, and to the
thoughtful the prospect of a demand
for such an amount of cotton this sea
son from this crop is staggering. Nev
ertheless the local sentiment to-night
is bearish, on the belief that the South
will’i.russ their crop for sale at present
prices, and that the spinner

COMMISSIONER HUDSON DIS
CUSSES RUMOR.
Concerning the oft repeated rumor
that Hon. T. G. Hudson will run for
Congress in the Third district next
year, and that he will not offer for re-
election as Commissioner of Agricul
ture, Mr. Hudson makes the following
itatement in to-day’s Constitution, viz:
Referring to the recent reports
villi reference to his future political
plans. Commissioner Hudson said:
The truth of the matter is, 1 have
not vet reached a decision as to wheth
er 1 shall run tor Congress from the
Third district, or offer again for Com
missioner of Agriculture. There is plen
ty of time yet to determine the ques
tion, and 1 shall endeavor to reach a
conclusion as speedily as possible.
When 1 do, 1 shall make prompt an
nouncement id - it, that there may be no
doubt on the subject. But for the pres
ent the question is absolutely undeter
mined.”
Mr. Hudson has given the State a
splendid administration as Commission
er of Agriculture, and has brought his
department up to a high state of effi
ciency. Since he went into office many
new duties have been added to his de
partment, not the least important of
which is the enforcement of the provis
ions of the Pure Food and Drug Act,
!>ut this work has been done so thor
oughly and intelligently, and with so
little friction, as to evoke general com
mendation.
If Mr. Hudson should conclude to run
for Congress the Third district would
have an able Representative at Wash
ington, but Georgia would at the same
time lose a mighty good Commissioner
of Agriculture.

One of the pretty weddings of the

of Brunswick, Md., which happy event
took place Tuesday evening at 8:30
o’clock at the Baptist church, Rev. B.
D. Gray, of Atlanta, and Rev. C. E.
Ilitt performing the ceremony. The
church was prettily decorated with
quantities of ferns, foliage plants,
bamboo and palms, artistically ar
ranged about the altar, the same be
ing beaut.itully lighted with candles.
The bride entered with her brother.
Mr. J. VV. Arnall, and was met at the
altar by the groom and his best man,
Mr. Hill P. Kedwine, Mr. Nixon Ar
nall being the groomsman. The brides
maids were Misses Sudie Arnall and
Esther Smith. The ceremony was per
formed under a beautiful white wed
ding bell. At the approach of the bri
dal party Mrs. Z. Greene, of Newnan,
sweetly sang "One Heart Divine.”
Miss Elsie Ragan, of Hawkinsville,
played the wedding maren. fhe ush
ers were Mr. J. Claude Arnall and Mr.
Luther E. Arnall. The bride was hand
somely gowned in pretty white duchess
satin, made princasse, with yoke and
sleeves of embroidered net, which
were trimmed with baby Irish lace.
The belt was fastened with satin ro
settes, and the veil gracefully caught
with a bow of orange blossoms, while
she carried a shower bouquet and a
white prayer hook. Misses Sudie Ar
nall and Esther Smith were both
charming in white lingerie dresses,
made princesse, carrying white roses
tied with tulle bows. The bride and
groom left at 9 :42 o’clock for Savan

is a graduate of Brenau College, both
in the literary and oratory depart
ments. Two t ears later she was elected

was highly esteemed by both teachers
— Any fool can destroy a tree, hut it
takes Mother Nature a century or
more to make one. The famous temple
of Diana at Ephesus, costing untold
llions and one of the wonders of the
world, was set on fire by a fool that
wanted to get his name in the pa
pers.” Those that fell trees seldom
plant them. During a man’s life only
saplings can be grown to take the place
of the centuries old trees that have
been destroyed. It took more than 3,-
000 years to make some of the trees in
the Western woods and to build up the
noble primeval forests, ‘ which the
greedy sawmill men ruined in a few
years. Nature preserves the trees for
centuries, saving them from drought,
disease, avalanches and a thousand
straining, leveling tempests and floods,
hut she cannot save them from the
fools. If we could kill off all the fools
we might save the trees, but the popu
lation would be dreadfully reduced.
Uncle Sam has undertaken the job of
saving our remaining forests from the
fools and the flauds. Strength to his
hands.
