ly benefited by his having come.
Some of the farmers seem to be
greatly discouraged because of the
great rains. > They ought not to
be disheartened at all, for the rains
are extensive throughout the whole

stapelthis fall and nothing will
be lost.

Terrace Your Lands.
Driving along any road that,
leads from Lawrenceville, the
terracing of the land cannot be
overlooked. One field is well ter
raced and the heavy rains have
done no damage, another isn’t
terraced at all, and great gullies
are being made on the hill sides.
One man’s farm is being improved
each year, his neighbor’s is being
washed away. The land of one is
worth sl2 per acre, that of anoth
er $6. These are the actual con
ditions that exist all over our
county, and here are the opportu
nities for improving and upbuild
ing the county, in which svery
land owner and every renter can
take part. A well improved farm
reflects credit upon its owner, the
community, the county and the
state, and it seems tu us that any
farmer can make more money in
doubling the value of his farm
than by putting his surplus cash
into more land and allowing that
which he already has to wash
away. We appeal to every far
mer in the county to give more'
attention to the care of his laud;
let the time soon come when
Gwinnett can show the best im
proved farms in the state.

Capt. S. Lawson, of West Buford, is

ness. '
An ejectment case in Justice court
here last Friday before a jury of twelve
men was quite interesting, and result
ed in a mistrial.
The continued rains have greatly
retarded farm work in this section.
Our farmers are badly behind, as
scarcely anything has been planted at
this writing.
Mayor Lovic Martin is becoming a
terror to evil doers. Lovic is a man
of convictions, and has the back bone
to dare to do what he conceives to be
right, regardless of criticisms of friend
.or foe.
We are glad to say that there is a
stronger sentiment here against blind
tigerism than ever before in the histo
ry of the town. But the evil is not yet
destroyed. It is only crippled, and
nothing but eternal vigilance of the
courts and good oitizens will ever rid
our community of this home-destroy
ing element.
The people of this end of the county
think they are entitled to at least one
member of the Board of County Com
missioners. And there is no man we
can think of who we had rather see
honored with this position than John
W. Beaty, of Suwanee. If Mr. Beaty
can be induced to make the raoe, we
promise him the unanimous vote of
Sugar Hill district. Mr, Beaty has a
head full of good practical sense, and
is fully qualified to fill the position to
the honor of himself and the good of
the county. Let’s have yourannounce
