interesting.
In a prohibition election Monday
Newton county went for pro
hibition by a large majority. It
was a decisive victory for pro
hibition.
The fleecy staple is beginning to
be marketed in the south Georgia
towns. Several bales of new cot
ton have already been sold this
season.
And now the handsomest wo
man of St. Louis has kissed Hob

of this generation would be glad to
be a hero of the war.

The total shipment this year
from Georgia has been two thous
and cars,nearly or quite one-half of
which goes to New York city to be
distributed in tributary territory.
The product has been large enough
to allow every person in the United
States a quart. There are some
thing like two million trees in the
state, and the product of a thous
and trees make a carload. Fully
half of all the shipments were
made by six firms and individuals,
the other half by orchardists scat
tered in different portions of the
state. Shippers’ gross returns are
said to average from $1 to $1.50 a
crate, depending on the date of
shipment and the quality. Out
of this must be taken the expense
of harvesting and shipping, but
some of the small orchards are
said to have yielded a profit of

ITS LESSONS.
The case of the state versus
Henry Roark, tried in Hall supe
rior court this week, has its lessons !
and they are very important les
sons for both young and old, but
particularly are they important
and valuable for young men.
Pistols, whisky and bad com
pany inevitably make trouble.
They are companions and evils and
troubles of every possible kind and
character are their children. The
character of no young man is pure
enough or strong enough to foci
with these things and remain un
harmed. They will bring trouble
upon him and upon all to whom
he may be of any concern.
When anybody, young or old,
male or female, begins to keep bad
company, to drink whisky of any
name, and to carry pistols, they
enter the road that can only lead
to destruction, and sooner or later
in some way there will come the
penalty for this violation of law
and order, of decency and of
righteousness and no one can
escape it.
In almost every instance, too,
when a start is made there is no
stop this side the gallows or the
grave. The record in thousands
of cases bear out the truthfulness
of these words, and as this un
fortunate trouble is now fresh upon
the minds of all the people m this
section, the opportunity is used to
warn again of the danger that is in
of Styles.
The features of our business are correct
styles and good values, and his is proven by
the crowds which throng our store from day
to day.

TOO MUCH RAIN
The agricultural department of
Georgia reports that the crops
throughout the state are being
damaged by too much rain. Mr.
Marbury, section director, gives
out the following statement:
Too much rain and lack of sunshine
were very injurious to cotton, and has
delayed fodder pulling and damaged
much fodder that had been pulled.
Cotton is taking on weed rapidly, but
fruiting poorly, and there is much
complaint of root rot and shedding. It
