Her passing away was preceded by an
illness extending over a long poiiod of
time, being due to the infirmities of old

her realized for some hours before the

Mrs. Davis was more than seventy
years of age, and during a long life in
this community had boen greatly be
loved by a large circle of f riendB and ac
quaintances of ail agos. During tho lat
ter part of her lift, infirmities kept her
oonfined, most of the time, to her home,
but she always olaimed the pffeotionate
regard of all who knew her. She was
the relict of the late Dr. W. L. Davis,
Sr., who, during his lifo, was a prom
inent physiolan of this oity and section.
Prior to her marriage she was Miss Ella
C. Winkler, of Savannah.
Mrs. Davis is survived by four chil
dren, Dr. W. L. Davis, Mrs. J. W. Yam
key and Miss Edwina Davis, of this
oity, and Dr. E. O. Davis, of Atlanta.
A brother and sister, Dr. J. A. Winkler,
of Boston, Mass., and Mrs. E. J. Bonier,
of Atlanta, also Burvlvo.
The funeral will take place tomorrow
morning at 10 o'clook from the resi
dence of Dr. W. L. Davis, and the in
terment will be in Oakview cemetery.
The following gentlemon will act aB
pall-bearers: Messrs. T. M. Garter, J.
B. Gilbert, B. I,. Weston, J. T. Hester,
A. J, Lippitt, S. B. Brown, S. W. Smith
and L E. Weloh. The funeral service
will be conducted by Rev. W. L.
Riolinrds, pastor of tho Baptist ohnroh,
Mrs. Davis having, for many years,
been a consistent momber of that branoh
of the Christian faith.
The people of Albany sympathize

The Fsll Planting ot Oats Believed to Be Al
most s Total Loss — Scarcity ol Seed for
Reptootlo,.
Tlie December freeze has played
havoo with the oat orop in Southwest
Georgia.
So far as the Herald's information ex
tends, this is the only material damage
done in this region by tho unprecedented
Deoember weather that we have been
experiencing for the post ten days, bnt
this is not inconsiderable.
On aooonnt of the dronth that pre
vailed throughout the mouth of Ootober,
the best time for sowing fall oats when
conditions aro favoraHe, the fall plant
ing was very generally delayed nntll
about the middle of November, and
wheu the freez, came it oaught the
ground wet and the yonng oats at that
oritloal stage when to be ont down by
the oold meant death to them. They
had not had time to beoome well cnongh
rooted to survive a hard freeze.
In tne Herald's inquiries only a few
farmers have been fonnd who are of tho
opinion that the oats will snrvivs this
remarkable spell ot December weather.
A few, bnt, only a few, planted their
oats in Ootober despite the dry weather,
and, while it is admitted that oats
plant id at that time may not all be
killed, it is the consensus of opinion
that they have been materially injnred,
while those planted later have been
killed outright.
The destruction of the full planting of
oats in this section at this time is a
serious matter. It means something
more than the mere cost of seed and re
planting, for it is the fall planting that
counts for most in this region. The
yield from oats planted in the spring is
never so good as from those planted in
the fall, and on account of the short
oorn orop that was made this year an
onhsnal valne attaches to the pros
pective oat crop whioh, under favorable
conditions, wonld beoome available in
May.
Another featnro whioh outs consider,-
able flgnre in the disaster to the oat
orop is tho general scarcity of seed and
the prioe of tbe same. Oats that were
planted in Ootober and November were
pnrohased at from 75 oents to 80 oente
per bushel, bnt now the rnling prioe in
the market is $1 per bashel.
