In view of this, it would seem that ou” farmer patrons should take advantage to help find a market for their grain, and advise us in regard to wheat they have for sale. So far, but little wheat has been reported. I am sending you this letter in the hope that you may have opportunities to speak to some of your farmer patrons who have sown wheat; and I imagine that if you will refer this letter to the publishers of your local paper they will be glad to make mention of the situation as a mat ter of interest to their readers.” At the annual meeting of the stock holders of the Newnan Cotton Mills, held on Monday last, a remarkably fine showing was made of the previous year’s operations.
