This estimate is carefully hasod on some 500 to 600 individual re- (Kirts, averaging about four from each county represented. In the northern section of the StBte cotton is slightly better off than in Middle and South Georgia, showing 77 per cent, in condi tion and prospect as compared with 66 per cent, each in the central and south ern parts of the State. These reports are almost directly in line with state ments heretofore emanating from the department regarding the condition of the crop. The condition of corn, while belter than thut of cotton, has been material ly affected by the drought. With an average of 79 per cent, the State over, the northern section shows 73 per cent., the middle section 79 per cent., and the louthern section 84 per cent. Ilay and foruge show a State average of 73 per cent, as compared to an nv- erago crop, with 69 per cent, in the northern, 71 per cent, in the middle, and 73 per cent, in the southern section. Excessive rains during May and June, a ml the drought and hot windH during July and early August, have materially affected all crops. Some counties re port that cotton has been injured by rust, black-root and the red spider. Early corn in South Georgia seems to be less damaged Ilian late plantings, which, in many sections, are practically de stroyed, although corn in North Geor gia has been materially benefited by re cent. rains. In every section of the State crop conditions have been mate rially alTected by the use of insufficient amounts of fertilizer. There are nineteen counties not heard from in the cut! for the August crop re port. Those not heard from in the northern section were Chattooga, Jack- son, Clarke, Mudismi, Oconee, Ogle thorpe, Dickons, Stephens, Dade and Wilkes; in the middle section wore Jen kins, Jones and Richmond; and in the southern section were Rulluch, Camden, Charlton, Echols, Fierce and Ware. Commenting on the August crop re port, of which the foregoing is a sum mary, Commissioner J. 1). Price says: "These reports give estimates which are carefully made, and are as accurate aB possible up to the time of mailing. From my own observation in going over the Stale, they seem to me to give as accurate and definite idea of crop con ditions in Georgia up to the middle of August us it is possible to obtain. In many respects the recent rains over the State have done much good. Young corn, peas, and hay crops coming on af ter the gruin was cut, will he especial ly benefited. The situation as to cotton is somewhat different. In the northern section, where cotton is not too far gone, the rains will help materially; but I hardly think that they will do much for the crop in Middle and Southern Georgia, where it is too far along and already severely injured by the drought. While in South Georgia a few days ago 1 saw many fields half open, and in some sections the gins nre now running regularly. Of course, there can he lit tle benefit under these conditions."

How about u few days off for your- aelf and family this summer, Mr. Pro gressive Farmer? In short, how about a reHl vacation for you, your wife, your boys snd girls? , "Oh, we can’t afford it,” we hear you say. The truth is, you can’t afford not to afford it. You can’t afford, how ever fine your furm may be, to stick by it day in and day out for 365 days in the year. If you do you are going to dry up the wellH of good will and human fellow ship in your heart; Mrs. Progressive Farmer ia going to feel, and rightly so, that something is lacking in her life; and the boys and girls, as soon aB they get old enough, will likely voice their protests by leaving the farm forever. Hard work with a liberal amount of thought behind it is unquestionably the first essential to success; but if one far mer clearH two thousand dollars a year by driving himself and Iris family, month after month and year afteryear, with never a Saturday off for a game of ball, a picnic or a fishing trip, while hiH neighbor, though making less per haps financially, joinB with his family in their games and outings as well as in their work, instilling in them an undy ing love for the open country and for farm life, we should call the latter far the more successful and richer man. So it’s settled, and we’re going on that outing! Where? Oh, anywhere, just so wo travel over new roads, see new scenes, breathe fresh air, and take it all with a spirit of fun and play that will bring us back home feeling twenty years younger. Maybe there’s a cool brook back in the hills, where the fish bite and the cool air is like tonic; where, after a day of BtrenuouB fun, you can lie and look up at the stars and make plans for the old farm, for the boys and girls, for mother, that would never have come amid your every-day surroundings. Or maybe off in another corner of the county, or even in an adjoining county, there is a particularly enterprising neighborhood (hat you have long wnnted to visit, hut somehow never found the time. Hitch up and go! Take as much time as may be necessary— camping or spending the nights with friends-and get a line on how other folks do things. Or you might go on a trip to see some kinsfolk of your own or your wife's or some loved old neigh bors who have moved to a distant sec tion-friends you know really want to see you. Or if you find it simply impossible to go on a several days’ outing, why not muke it a rule during the next two months to huvo Saturdays as vacation days, the whole family to break awny and go fishing, on a picnic, or to a neighborhood ball game? Helping Build a Good Neighborhood. The regressive Farmer, In our morning daily we find this item about a Mi. J. W. Penny, not far from our office, who is taking the surest step to build up his neighbor hood. Said Mr. Penny to the news paper man: "1 have had a tract of land divided up last week to sell on easy terms. The whole plot contained some 400 acres, and I had it split up into farms that averaged about 50 acres each. The coming of six or seven new families to thnt neighborhood will do ns much bb anything you can put on the land to ward building it up—provided they are the right sort of people, and that is the only kind that I want to settle down, anyway. ” It’s a pity that more farmers who have more land than they need to cul tivate do not sell off fifty-acre tracts to good people who will help build up the neighborhood. Frequently a far mer holds on to three or four times as much land as he needs, saying that he wants it for division among his children, only to find in his old age that all the children have left because of the absence of a good neighborhood and social life. We heard of a case re cently where a farmer who owned inure than 500 acres, and was cultivating only a fraction of it, would not sell small farms off it even to his children and grandchildren. The result was that they have been forced to leave, leaving him in pitiful loneliness, when he might huvo been in the center of a happy colony composed of his offspring. Many a farmer would greatly in crease his own happiness and that of his family by selling fifty acres to some good white neighbor. Recommends Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrlima Remedy.

There has never been a time in the history of the South when more at tention was paid to pure-breil livestock than right now. Pure-bred bulls are guing into every county and almost every community; pure-bred draft sires are being placed in many neighbor hoods; and the demand for pure-bred hogs exceeds the supply. This is all most gratifying, snd indi cates that the South is turning over a new leaf in agriculture; but at the Baine time it is well that we, in our en thusiasm for better livestock of all kinds, do not for a moment forget that scrubs are scrubs largely because of scrub treatment, and the pure-breds are pure-breds because they will stand for nothing but pure-bred treatment. It’s a mighty fine thing to bring a high-priced, pure-bred bull into your neighborhood; hut it's a finer thing still to give him the feed and attention necessary if he is to remain something more than merely a pure bred in name only. Ticks and scant feed are the great dangers the cattleman must face. Don’t forget that any tick-free animal brought into tick-infested territory is in serious danger. Of course, the remedy ia obvious —the ticks must be cleaned up. Don’t forget either that a pure-bred bull is a bit "finicky” about his feed, and refuses outright to thrive on broomsedge and Bhucks. Here, too, the remedy is plain, and calls for good pastures, silos, and some study of feeds and feeding. These essentials looked to, the South has many natural advantages for the cheap production of beef and dairy pro ducts; but unless we do look to them with Bkill and intelligence, serious losses are a practical certainty. Forewarned; Forearmed. LaG range Reporter. A girl had a proposal of marriage Sunday night, and asked a week to con sider it before answering. She then organized herself into an investigating committee and began taking testimony from married ladies of her acquaint ance. The first one she visited used to be a belle and the most admired girl in town before she married six years before. The cross-examination brought out the fact that she had six children, did all her own work, including washing and ironing, and hadn’t been down town for four weeks, and that her husband had given her but $2 since she married, and that he had borrowed and forgot to pay back $10 which her brother once gave her for a Christmas present. He bought himself a new overcoat with the money, while she wore the same plush coat which she wore when he was courting her. Another woman whom she visited quit teaching school three years ago to marry "the handsomest and best dressed man in town," and she was supporting him. A third didn’t dare say her soul was her own when her husband was around, though she used to write some lovely essays when she was at school on the "emancipation of woman.” The fourth woman Bhe visited waB di vorced. After visiting them and Bumming up the evidence, she went home and wrote the young man. She will be married next month. The Clerk Guaranteed It.

Albany Herald. We cannot speak from personal ob servation and as one in authority as to the prospects oi this year’s cotton crop in other sections, but we feel sure of our ground in saying that unless the crop turns out better elsewhere than is promised here in Southwest Georgia, which produces more cotton than any other section of the State, the Govern ment is going to have to revise its esti mate issued during the early part of • his month, placing the crop at approx- mately 12,000,000 bal. s. All the “signs” and indications point to a short crop this year. In the first place, the acreage was reduced fully one-third below that of last year, and the yield of the reduced acreage is go ing to be considerably under the aver age for this region. Very little com mercial fertilizer, comparatively speak ing, has been used under cotton this year, and the weed is small and lightly fruited, except on fresh land. Local warehousemen report receipts far short of what they were this time last year, and cotton !3 bringing over 8 cents a pound now, whereas there was little or no demand for it and little in ducement to bring it to market this time last year. As we have already said, the Govern ment will have to revise its estimate of this year’s cotton crop unless the pr ospect ia much better in other sec tions than it is in Southwest Georgia.
