T. O. Skellie in Haanfactarera* Record.
The fruit land of Georgia, where
the bulk of the peaches and grapes
are grown for market, lies all
along the line of the Central Rail
road between Atlanta and Mar-
shallvilie, the latter place being
140 miles from Atlanta. All along
the line of this road you will see
orchards and vineyards, and the
lands, unless in a bottom, are all
good for fruits. At each place the
people think there is something in
the soil, or possibly in the atmos
phere, that makes their fruit a lit
tle better than any that is grown
either north or sonth of them. The
fact is, so far as peaches are con
cerned, they will do finely all along
between thoae places. At Mar-
shallville they are probably a week
earlier than they are sexenty-five
miles farther north. The two
largest shipping points are Fort
Valley and Marshallville, just
eight miles distant from each oth
er. These places shipped a little
over one hundred carloads each
this season.
A carload of peaches is 500
cases of six one gallon baskets,
weighing abont forty pounds each.
These are called 3-peck cases.
They usually sell in the Eastern
markets at from two to fonr dol
lars per case. The freight from the
average shipping point to New
York is 50 cents per case, includ
ing both railroad freight and re
frigerator charges, the freight be
ing thirty-five cents, and the C. F.
T. Co’s, charge eighteen cents—to
tal fifty-three cents per case. The
case costs the grower about twen
ty-four cents made up; picking,
packing and hanling to the rail
road about ten cents more, making,
say, thirty-five cents f. o. b. cars.
A carload of good peaches usually
net the shipper about $1,000. A
great many sales were made at
SL25 to $L75 per case free on
board ears. The entire crop, 1
think,could-have been sold at 81.50
per case. Peach and melon grow
ers are greatj hands to take the
chances, and a great many of them
would not have sold at $2 per case.
Now, 1 know whereof I speak
when I say that every marketable
peHch grown in Georgia this year
could have been sold as fest as
loaded on the cars at a price that
would have netted the grower
$150 per acre, provided, of course,
that his orchard was in good con
dition and had a good crop on the
frees. A good many orchards net
ted over that amount.
W. E, Warren, of Powersville,
uetted a little over $300 per acre.
This crop was grown on land
worth $20 per acre. I have before
me a sale of only 480 cases made
by Snow & Co., of Boston, at auc
tion in August, which brought $1,-
72L47 gross. This being in Au
gust, they had to compete with
both ^Delaware and California
peaches.
The main shipping points are
Marshallville, Port Valley, Vine
yard, Orchard Sill, Pomona, Grif
fin, The Rock, Barnesville, For
syth, Powersville, Loraine, Ten-
nille and Morehand.
Macon, a city of some 40,0d0 in
habitants, is on this line of road,
100 miles south of Atlanta. Be
tween Macon and Atlanta the bulk
of the grape crop is grown. This
section is fine for grapes. Some
years they do better than others.
South of Macon, where the soil is
more porous, a grape crop is just
as snre to come as the sun is to
ri*e. I don’t think anybody has
ever seen a rotten bunch of Con
cord or Ives grapes in that section
in fifteen years. Rain ‘or shine
seems to make no difference; they
always do well, though from some
canse not much attention has been
paid to them. They are easily
grown, and will pay well every
year.
Fort Valley, one of the most en
terprising little cities in Georgia,
is forging ahead in the peach bus
iness, not only with the home
folk’s, but with Eastern and West
ern people. The J. EL Hall Co.,
of Connecticut, has a yonng or
chard' of over 100,000 trees. Two
or three Ohio companies have
young orchards from 25,000 to
85,000 trees. None of these or
chards are in bearing yet As
much as half -a case to the tree has
been shipped this season from or
chards planted out in the spring-of
1690. That crop alone would pay
_
'
were planted up to the time they
were shipped.
The varietes usually grown in
Georgia are given in the order of
their ripening: Alexander, Tillot-
son, Early Rivers, St John, Early
Crawford, Amelia, Stomp the
World, General Lee, Chinese Free,
Belle of Georgia, Elberta and
Irate Crawford. While some oth
ers are grown there, all do well,
and there is good money in all of
them, unless, perhaps, the Alexan
der, which a great many have dis
carded. I believe that with good
attention after a big crop—atten
tion such as pruning, cleaning
around the trees, fertilizing well,
having “smudges” ready in the
spring to raise a big smoke in case
“Old Probabilities” says look out
for frost—that an average crop of
peaches can be raised every year.
It has been tried by J. D. Cun
ningham, Jr., of Orchard Hill, one
of the largest and most progres
sive growers in the state, and with
out using the smoke he has raised
three crops in four years. In March,
this year, while the trees were in
fall bloom, there came one of the
biggest freezes ever known in
Georgia; the thermometer going
to twenty-five degress above zero,
and yet the frees were loaded down
with fruit. The fact is, not having
any crop last year, they were in a
fine, healthy condition. In 18S9,
after the big crop was over, Mr.
Cunningham pruned his orchard
severely and fertilized his trees
well. The.result was the next year
he had another full crop, and he
was the only grower in the state
that did have one. So you see
what brains and enterprise will do.
Now as to the price of 'and.
Land can be bought at from $15 to
$40 per acre, that at $15 being as
good for fruit as that at $40,though
not so near to town. Still it can
be bought at that price along the
railroad, and it is no trouble to get
a shipping station at any place
where there is anything to ship.
You can can bay the land and the
trees, prepare the land, fertilize
and plant the frees, all for $30 an
acre—this with 150 trees per acre.
Some growers plant 100, others
125, 150 and 200, bat 150 is about
the average. With good attention,
the third year you ought to get a
crop that would pay you $75 per
acre,and the fourth year you ought
to get $150 per acre.
As to the canning industry,
there are only a few canning es
tablishments in Georgia, bat these
are doing well, and the probabili
ties now are that there will be from
a dozen to twenty put in operation
in Georgia by another season. All
that is needed is for some enter
prising parties who are well posted
with facts and figures, and with
some money—though they will not
be expected to pat up all the mon
ey—to come and work up the bus
iness. Our people are ready and
anxious to go into all such enter
prises. I think the principle things
to be canned would be vegetables
and seedling peaches; the latter
usually sell for 35 to 50 cents per
bushel. I do not know what can
neries can pay for fruit, but the
shipping varieties cannot be bought
anywhere for less than a dollar a
bushel on the frees, and then only
from ’ parties who do not under
stand shipping, and who do not
care to learn.
Large quantities of vegetables
are going to be planted for mar
ket, now that we can get* good re
frigerator cars, and a great many
will he raised for canning. They
ought to raised here as cheap as
anywhere. Land can be rented for
two dollars per acre, and labor is
plentiful at from fifty cents to one
dollar -per day.

Georgia shipped this season
about 450 carloads of peaches and
grapes. A simple calculation will
show any one that the twelve larger
cities will handle at good prices
sixty cars per day for fifty days, or
3,000 cars. This leaves several
hundred places that will take from
two to four cars each per week
daring the season, and as con
sumption increases very rapidly
as prices are lowered, you can
safely multiply these figures by
two, and then the . grower would
realize at least §50 to $75 per acre
on well cultivated orchards. No,
there is no danger of overstocking
the markets with good Georgia
peaches With the varieties now
grown,the season commences June
1, and closes August 10.
The ice factories failed us again
this year right in the midst of the
shipping season; consequently sev
eral ice factories will be built in
the fruit belt before next season.
In this section the vegetable and
small fruit growers made money;
the melon crop was sold at an av
erage of $100 a car net; the nurse
rymen have sold about all their
trees; the corn crop is made,' and
is one of the best ever raised in
Georgia;*the cotton crop, while the
acreage is greatly reduced, is good;
the tobacco crop is fine, and old
Georgia is moving up to the front.
A Word For Boys.
If we are to have drunkards in
the future, some of them are to
come from the boys to whom I am
now writing, and I ask you if you
want to become one of them. No,
of coarse you don’t. Well, I have
a plan that is just as sure to save
you from such a fate as the sun is
to rise to-morrow. It never foiled,
it never will fail, and it is worth
knowing. Never tonch liqaor in
any form. This is the plan, and
it is worth patting into practice. I
know you don’t drink now, and it
seems to me as if you never would.
But your temptation will come,
and it will probably come this
way: Your will find yourself some
times with a number of compan
ions, and they will have a bottle of
wine on the table. They will
drink and offer it to you. They
will think it a manly practice, and
very likely they will look upon^ou
as a milk sop if you don’t indulge
with them. Then what will you
do? Will you say, “No, no! none
of that stuff for me!” Or will you
take‘the glass, with your common
sense protesting, and your con
science making the whole draught
bitter, and then go off with a hot
head and skulking soul that at
cnce begins to make apologies for
itself, and will keep doing so all
yonr life? Boys, do not become
drunkards.—Southern Star.

taxed as much as I receive? It is
evident I would gain nothing on
these terms. Bat is not there some
reason to fear that I will be taxed
more than I receive? The P. P
promises to lend a great deal of
money. There are a great n amber
of people looking for a loan when
the P. P. gets into power. It will
take an immense amount of money
to lend these people. Also, taxa
tion will not get much oat of these
people, for they are nearly mined,
and that is the reason they are so
anxious to get this loan. Then it
is plain that these from whom
something can be got by taxation
will have to be taxed that maoh
more to make up for the deficiency
of other men. I shall have to be
taxed to raise money to lend to
other men. In addition, the tariff
tax will not be lessenened. It is
evident that on this plan I should
lose more money than 1 would
gain.
But the P. P. leaders tell ns
there need be no tax. The money
would be paper money that the
government would strike off and
lend us. Let me look at a green
back treasury note. Why, it is a
mere promise to pay one dollar, or
five dollars. So the government
promises to pay—but pay what?
Well, I don’t know any pther kind
of dollars than silver or gold. It
cannot pay them without getting
them in taxes.
Bnt Mr. Watson says in his
book: “To say that a government’s
promise of pledge is without value
unless redeemable in silver or gold
is a vicious heresy-” Well, in the
name of goodness, if they do not
redeem in silver or gold, what do
they redeem in? Do they redeem
in land or real estate? That idea
is absurd. Do I remember any pa
per money not redeemable in sil
ver or gold? The bank bills be
fore the war were redeemable in
silver or gold, and everybody took
them without hesitation. *
Well, the greenbacks were used
a long time when they were not re
deemable on demand in coin. Bnt
the government promise was under
stood to be for future payment in
coin, was it not? But they depre
ciated because the government did
not pay on demand, and they went
up or down as the chances of pay
ment in coin were good or bad. It
is evident if I help the govern
ment issne promises to pay and
lend an immense sum, I shall be
taxed to fulfill these promises. It
is plain that issueing such a lot of
promises would stop specie pay-
menl, end. then,the universal expe
rience is, the money depreciates.
It is also plain that a large num
ber of people who are expecting
money*from the government would
keep on calling for it. They will
elect men to congress and a presi
dent in favor of keeping on lend
ing. From the way most of them
talk, they wonld not regard it as a
loan, but a gift. Would they not
keep on calling for more? The
owners of property and tax payers
would be ruined. Suppose they are
ruined, am I not ruined? Is not
my interest" with the property own
ers? Have I not something to
keep? Are not many of the P. P.
people already rained, and do not
mind risking the ruin of the coun
try? Others want office, and they
risk raining the country fop that
reason.
It is evident- that my interest, is
not paid, they and their families
wonld be sent Sonth and their
property given said refugees. All
of these are dead now, and were
over sixty years old when that or
der was issued Gan any South
ern man vote for such a heartless
w retell?
A man by the name of C. W"
Witt sold Mr. Jasper Cox, ^ a very
poor man, two thousand pounds of
bacon, for which he received the
cash. Mr. Cox took the bacon to
the cotton mill in Lawrence county
and traded it for cotton twist
Thia he carefully stored away in
the loft of his little cabin, think
ing that it would assist him in
purchasing a little home after the
war, as he was very poor with a
large family and had no home.
Weaver learned through soma
source that the gentleman had the
cotton twist and sent a detach
ment of soldiers to his house and
took possession of it, and shipped
it to Iowa for his own purpose.
This cotton twist was worth at
the time it was stolen $2,000.
Jasper Cox is living in Giles
county.
John P. Williams, a pool but
highly esteemed former in Giles
county, had 25 fat hogs which at
that time were worth ten dollars
per hundred, gross, and a lot of
turkeys. Weaver, in person, took
a file of soldiers into Williams’
place and made the soldiers shoot
every hog on the place and had
them brought to camp. When
Williams asked for a voucher,
Weaver said, I don’t give rebels in
the South vouchers. I wonld
rather furnish rope to hang every
d—n oue of them.” Mr’ Williams
is still living, and will swear to the
above if necessary.
The fogs were valued at $750
The turkeys, belonged to Mrs.
Williams, and she begged to have
them spared, bnt the heartless
wretch had them all killed and
taken to headquarters for his' own
special use, remarking to Mrs. Wil
liam that she had no business be
ing the wife of a rebel.
Weaver made it a practice to
charge our citizens ten cents each
for passes to come into and go ont
of the Fredefal lines Thia money
he put into his own pockets. This
pass read as follows:
Pass the bearer through the
Frederal lines.” J. B Weaver,
Commander.

failure of young men to marry nas
caused thousands of women to enter
thejdifferent pursuits of life and
earn an independent living.
Where lies the remedy and what
prospects of a change in; the sit na
tion is in sight?
It would be hard to suggest one
of easy application. No legisla
tion can deal in forming a code'to
guide such a tender and toachons
sentiment as love. No sage can solve
the road to matrimonial ties, and
few are they that can individually
trespass upon such sacred grounds
without a feeling of temerity.
The venerable Memphis minister
that delivered the last commence
ment address at Wesleyan College
in this city touched upon this sub
ject He spoke of the foiling off in
marriages and attributed the con
dition to the unneceessary expense
entailed.
The day seems past when love
alone governs this sacred institu
tion. The life that the average
young man of today leads is antag
onistic to matrimony; on the other
hand our young women do not
seem wide awake to the situation.
Too much time is devoted to tLe
cultivation of unnecessary accom
plishments, and too little pursuit
is given to domestic possibilities-
The social requirements of the
age are too severe in one sense. The
existing condition makes it impos
sible for the average man on a sal
ary to come np to the requirments,
and rather than run the risk of do
mestic infelicity he steers his bark
to a bachellor’s port.
AH men would like to marry.
There are no woman haters in the
sense it is applied. And there is
also lots of love left in the old land
yet The trouble lies in the existing
condition of society.
- Young men must have a’more
sensible and philosophic view of
life than ajmajorityjof them seem
now to have. Yonngjwomen, too,^
must be tought the meaning of the*
situation so far as their interests
are concerned. One of the most
serious barriers in the way of a
remedy is the very means which
an ever multiplying multitude of
women have found of ;faeing inde

Modern society has welcomed
common-sense shoes and common-

Let it adopt common-sense mar-
