GEORGIA A CUE AT STATE.
Much interest has been aroused by an
article and an editorial in the April 11
issue of The Country Gentleman, one
of the most widely read agricultural
journals in the world, on the work of
the Georgia Chamber of Commerce for
the agricultural upbuilding of the State.
The article is based on census figures
showing that the products of Georgia
farms, mills, mines and forests created
an annual total wealth of nearly $400,-
000,000; but the tax digest showed an
increase in taxable wealth of less than
$40,000,000.
The article states that there are few
er cattle in Georgia than in 1800; 372,-
000 fewer sheep, and 485,000 fewer
hogs; that, while the corn yield has
steadily increased, Georgia imports an
nually 80,000,000 bushels, and relative
ly as much wheat and oats, meal and
flour, hay and forage, beef and Halt-
pork sides; and that, with the value of
the cotton crop deducted, there is $37,-
000,000 on the wrong side of the ledger.
The State Department of Agricul
ture, the State College of Agriculture,
the District Agricultural Schools, the
Hoys' Corn Clubs, Hoys’ Hig (Hubs,
Girls' (’anning Clubs, the rapidly in
creasing number of Federal Farm Dem
onstration Agents employed by the
counties, and the Georgia Chamber of
Commerce, are credited with having
produced a wonderful awakening to the
possibilities of Georgia, and a deter
mined effort to make the State agri
culturally independent.
The value of the article to Georgia,
beyond its advertising effect in other
sections of the country, is its forceful-
ness in awakening our own people to
the fact that their annual loss and gain
account shows a gradual shrinking
worth, and in showing them the road
out through the enlightened selfishness
that should induce them to give prompt
financial support to the Georgia Cham
ber of Commerce.
Most significant in this connection is
the joint advertisement of the bankers
of Crisp county, published in their local
paper a few days ago, notifying the
farmers of Crisp county that, to enable
them to raise cuttle and hogs, the banks
would loan $50,000, in amounts of not
over $500 to one farmer, for a term of
two years at the legal rate of interest,
for the purchase of live stock. This is
a direct result of the efforts of the
Georgia Chamber of Commerce to se
cure a better system of rural credits,
and should be followed by the bankers
of every county in the State.
The Sandersville Georgian has this
to say of our State Treasurer, so well
and so favorably known to the people
of the State:
"State Treasurer Speer has made a
splendid record us the custodian of the
finances of Georgia, and will no doubt
be rewarded by re-election. He is well
trained in the performance of his duties,
having been connected with the office
as assistant and Treasurer for a num
ber of years, and during his adminis
tration not a penny of the State’s
money has ever gone into the wrong
channels. His books have always
shown a clean record, and the confi
dence that the people of Georgia have
shown in him has not been misplaced.
He will be re-elected by a large ma
jority.”
Washington, D. C., has the largest
negro population of any American city,
the total being 94,44(1, as against 91,709
in New York City. Other cities show
the following population of negroes:
New Orleans, K9,2tV2; Baltimore, 84,749;
Philadelphia, 84,459; Memphis, 52,411;
Birmingham, 52,305; Atlanta, 51,902;

No Damage From Cold Snap.
Atlanta, April 13. With the pre-
Kuster could snap over and no harm
done, the crop outlook for all sec
tions of Georgia is reported here to be
particularly line far above the average.
Great anxiety was felt tbronchi ut the
State last week, but the few frosts in
North Georgia were very light, i
and in South Georgia there were none j
at all The peach crop, which stood I
to suffer most by untoward weather 1 * * * * * 7 * 9
conditi ms a week ago, is said to have
escaped with no damage whatever. It
appears, therefore, that Georgia is on
the threshold of a great year for the
farmers, and a big business for every
body.

Geo. Hieine*s Great Photo-Urania, “Quo Vadis,** at The Palace Theater Monday, April 20.
The I’alace Theater has made another big scoop for its patrons.
This time it is Geo. Kleine's stupendous photo-drama "Quo Vadis,”
in 8 reels. This film is well known. It is in 8 reels, employing over
10,000 people in the cast. One scene alone, "The Burning of Rome,”
cost $100,000 to produce. The entire cost of production was $300,000.
Heretofore this picture has only been seen in the larger cities. It
was presented at the Astor Theater, New York, for 306 consecutive
performances, at prices ranging from 50c to $2.
When Mr. Kleine made "The Last Days of Pompeii," critics said
it would never be equalled; hut "Quo Vadis,” his next masterpiece,
has been pronounced the world over as more stupendous and a far bet-

ter picture than “The Last Days of Pompeii.” We had lots of nice
comments on "The Last Days of Pompeii.” Now we are going to
offer you something even better.
This picture is historical, religious and educational. It has been
approved by ministers, teachers and others, and is altogether the most
sensational and spectacular picture ever made. See the imperial ban
quet, with thousands and thousands of people; the burning of Rome,
which alone is worth the price of admission. See the Christian mar
tyrs thrown into the lions’ dens; see the lions tear them to pieces.
In order to give everyone a chance to see this picture, the theater
will open at 12:30; last performance will start at 10 p. m. Remember
