Make Home Market.
A prominent farmer of the upper
fifth district of Houston county told
us the other day that he had con
tracted to plant and cultivate sever
al acres in tomatoes, the product to
be used by a Macon cannery.
-This fact leads us to the declare,
tion that there should be several
canning establishments in Houston
cqunty.
Last summer a number of our far
mers canned several thousand cans
of peaches each. Nearly' all these
peaches have been sold,'and {he
wholesale price isViow at least 10
per cent higher than it was three
months ago. The conditions are
such that there could be sold this
year several times more than can be
furnished. Then, the home-canned
peaches have earned through supe
rior merit a reputation that has mul
tiplied the demand several times. Of
course the peaches that are taken
from the trees and canned the same
day are much superior to those that
are shipped several hundred miles
and allowed to stand several days
before being canned.
The same is true of all kinds of
vegetables that are suitable for can
ning. Nowhere can better or larger
crops of com, okra, snap beans and
tomatoes be grown than in Houston
county.
Our farmers could co-operate in
the construction of canneries at con
venient points where the shipping
facilities are good. They could grow
their own material for canning, fur
nish all the labor necessary, and the
outlay in cash would be compara
tively little.
The result we dare say would be
exceedingly gratifying, not only to
the stockholders, but to all who
would use the home-grown, home-
canned vegetables.
' We understand there will be some
canning done this year, and we hope
to see several extensive establish
ments in the county next year.
Southern Development.
Recently Mr. John E. Searles,
President of the American Cotton
Co.,, spent five weeks in the south
investigating the material condi
tions of the section. We reproduce
below a portion of an interview pub
lished in the New York Journal of
Commerce on March 7th.
“While the public has heard a
great deal about the resources of the
South and the progress which that
section is making, I am persuaded
that its advantages are by no means
fully appreciated by the business
people of the North. It should be
remembered that the South has a
very remarkable combination of ad
vantages not possessed, I believe, by
any other one country or section in
the world. It produces about three-
fourths of the world’s cotton crop,
furnishing the raw material for the
vast textile interests of Great- Brit
ain, the Continent and New Eng
land. This industry, representing
over $1,500,000,000 of invested cap
ital, is gradually tending toward the
cotton fields. In all parts of the
South, and especially in the Caroli-
nas, Georgia and Alabama, very rap
id progress is being made in cotton-
mill building. The South now has
over $120,000,000 invested in cotton
mills,against $61,000,000 eight years
ago, and about $5,000,000 is going
into new mills now under contract
and extensions which are being
made to existing mills. Through
out the South I was informed that
the dividends of cotton mills have
averaged for some years 8 to 10 per
cent, a year after adding, in many
cases, 10 to 15 per cent, to the sur
plus fund.”
The East’s New Religious Figure.
The policy of The Ladies’ Home
Journal, in its religious department,
seems to" be always to engage the
pen of the man most immediately
prominent in the eyes of the reli
gious world. Thus it has had the
services of Mr. Beecher, Doctor Tal-
mage, Doctor Parkhurst, Ian Mac-
laren, and now it will have those of
Dr. Newell Dwight Hillis, the new
pastor of Plymouth Church in Brook
lyn. Dr. Hillis has given the Jour
nal a series of articles upon which
he had been working for over a year
previous to his Eastern Call, and the
first of these articles will be publish-
lished in the next issue of the maga
zine. The series is all connected in
thought, and presents the general
subject of “The Secrets of a Happy
Life.”
In a recent letter treating of the
position the democratic party should
assume in the next campaign, Mr.
O. H. P, Belmont, of New York,
says the demand for free coinage of
silver is weaker than it was three
years ago, and the question of fi
nance is becoming less important in
politics. In the following declara
tion he is eminently correct: “The
trusts form the giant evil, imminent
and threatening, in our affairs. The
monster combination of money, call
ed the trusts, whose methods con
template the bribery of congress and
legislature, and even the control- of
the courts, must be destroyed. To
this end we should have an income
tax and an inheritance tax.”
The fighting in the Philippines
has been spirited during the last
several days, the Americans steadily
driving the insurgents toward Ma-
lolos,- their seat of government. The
loss of life has been comparatively
light _ among -our troops, though
greater-than heretofore. Insurgent
prisoners say AguinaJdo will quit
when Malolos is captured.

The dogwood blossoms look lovely

have a tap that needs turning, or is
afflicted with lunacy. O! could we

We are told a syndicate will be

We greatly sympathize with Mr.
ahd Mrs. E. J. Thompson in the
loss of their little baby.
In the death of Dr. J. T. Coleman
our community has lost one of its
truest men and best citizens, and
the country one of the finest physi
cians. We. never knew a gentler,
stronger, manlier man, nor one who
added more to the sum of human
joy; and if everyone'to whom he had
done some loving service were to
bring a blossom to his grave he
wonld sleep beneath a wilderness of
blossoms. In the storm of life he
was a brave, tender man; in the sun
shine as gentle as a flower. He al
ways sided with the weak and
wronged, and was the best friend to
the poor. In his last days when his
sufferings were very great, he bore it
with patience and Christian submis
sion. From the day his illness be
came known, friends from near and
far gathered around his bedside, and
each was greeted with a pleasant
smile and word. When they wonld
express the hope for his recovery he
knew they were idle words, for there
was no mistaking the approach of
death with him; and placing every
confidence and faith in the tender
mercy cf the Saviour he awaited the
summons of the Death Angel that
kissed down his eyelids into that
dreamless sleep. The bereaved fam
ily have the heartfelt sympathies of
everyone.
The weather is delightful now,
and farming is moving smoothly.
The com crop is about planted, and
now the rash is on for the cotton
and other crops. The gardens in the
community are the most backward
and poorest we ever saw. Many far
mers complain of a new disaster;
their seed cane has been badly dam
aged by rats, they having eaten the
“eyes” from the stalks. One neigh
bor informs us that out of 1500
stalks there were not more than 200
good ones.
