Several years ago Capt. J. B. James went over the county just a few days before the state fair opened and collected together material that made such a grand showing as to capture the second prize. If we had begun in time, we would have been sure of the first prize that time, but we will certainly have to work for it this year, as mauy counties have al ready entered the contest in dead earnest.

It is a well-known fact that the agricultural interest in the state of Georgia is not encour aged as iu many other Btates, aud we hope to see oar farmers make the county and sta^e fairs a grand success.

We never saw garden work so back ward, and the prospeot for early spring greens is gloomy. It is delightfully warm aud pleasant ou the Hill to-day, aud many pretty flowers smiled out at us. The pi'onios and redbugs will soon begin to bud too, aud then the gallant boys, sweet girls and spring frocks will be strictly in it. Mr. W. T.
