MRS MARTHA C. RUSHING DEAD
—
' J I"- i i‘ *.:
Following an illness of a few
weeks, death came as a relief to
the tired soul of Mrs. Martha C.
Rushing Thursday June 1st.
She was 70 years old and leaves
one brother Mr. Lasetfcr of Mis
sissippi, two daughters Mrs J. E.
McDonald and Miss Mattie Rush
ing of Macon, four grand children,
J. E, and William McDonald, Mrn
Willie Hatness all of Macen and
Mrs. Lorraine Cole of Port Valley
and four grand children, to
mourn her absense.
She was like the Saviour In that
she went about doing good.
All thru the years, her life was
filled with noble deeds.
But why mourn her going. Tho
call "come up higher 1 ’ she has
answered. v
Farewell, but not forever.
Only earthly ties are served,
To Him the Grief of eternal
life,
Her spirit has taken its flight,
There to rest on his everlasting
arm,
With the radiance of her goodness
charm us poor creatures left be
hind.
Into His presence subline,
A Friend.

SPRAY GEORGIA BELLS ANDELBERTAS
THIS WEEK.
Peach growei § fl 3 advised and
strongly urged to spray all Geor
gia Bells and Elbertas for the last
week. Start on Georgia Bells the
first of the week and conclude
with Elbertas the latter part of
the week. Use self-boiled lime
sulphur and arsenate of lead or
80-5-15 dust. Hileys should have
received this last spray last week,
and will need no further at-
tention.
The peak of emerge ice from the
soil of the new curculio generation
has been reached, and egg deposi
tion in Georgia Belles and Elber
tas will start within the next few
days, hence the necessity of an im
mediate application of spray on
these varieties.

NEW CROP OF SOUTH SOON TURNS
TO GOLD
Atlanta, Ga., .Tune 5.—The new
crop, of which so much has been
said aud written, in recent months
is now in the making. Out of the
ground in lens of thousands of
Sou thorn fields are cjming the
products wl*ich in a few short
months will be converted into
money through the marvelous al
chemy of commerce.
By day and by night the South
wealth is being multiplied by
millions by tho old processes of
sunshine and shower and re
sponsive soil. The congresses and
the parliaments debate, the editors
write, the priuting presses reel off
their tons of reading matter on
business conditions, experts in
solemn session predict this and
prognosticate that mighty poli
ticians save the country twice
each day aud do not conceal the
fact from their constituents—and
in the meantime while all this
talk and discussion rages, back on
the creek bottoms and in the
mountain coves and in the vast
stretches of the coastal plain, the
processes of nature, those san e
prco.'sses that operated in pre
cisely the same way in tho valley
of the Nile thousands of years
ago, in the morning of time, con
tinue their patient 24 hour-a-uay
work, providing food and fabric
for man and beast, and the raw
products without which our great
factories would be silent and idle.
The crops which mean so much
to the Laud Of Di .ie are on the
way. X

ORIGIN OF “GEORGIA CRACKER”
There have been many dis
cussions about the origin of the
term “Georgia Cracker.” There
seems to bo more than one way of
explaining it.
Not more than eighty years ago
railroads in Georgia were unknown.
The farmers had t© carry their
products to distant places for sale.
The leading market town were
Augusta, Charleston and Savannah
Some planters had to travel over
a hundred miles to reach these
places. They traveled in great
canvas-covered wagons. In these
they carried their cooking utensils
and provisions. They also carried
blankets to sleep on at night.
Neighbors living near each
other made these journeys to
gether, therefore long trains of
wagons were continually passing
the highways.
When night came on they
would stop near a stream or
spring of water and prepare to
spend the night. Each driver
carried a whip, which lie popped
and cracked as he went along From
this the expression of "Georgia
Cracker” originated, the cracker
being a man from the country
who drove the wagon and cracked
his whip . '
Richard Malcolm Johnson says
that among the followers of Gem
Francis Marion in his guerilla
warefare was a number of Geor
gians who were expert riflemen.
The erack of these rifles was much
dreaded by the British. They gave
them the name of "Georgia
Crackers.” After the war it be
came a social term, therefore the
Georgians are still called "Georgia
Crackers.’ 1 —Vidalia Advance.
