TWICE-A WEEK VOLUME 53. BUSINESS SOUND IN SOUTHEAST SAYS WELLBORN Governor Wellborn, of Atlanta Fed eral Reserve Bank, Says Banks Are Prosperous—All Lines Active. Atlanta, Ga., April 14.—General business conditions in the sixth fed eral reserve district, which includes the states of Georgia, Alabama and Florida, as well as portions of Ten nessee, Mississippi and Louisiana, are on a basis that is fundamentally sound, according to Hon. M. B. Well born, governor of the Federal Re serve Bank of Atlanta. Governor Wellborn says that the sharp lesson taught by the inflation of 1920-1921 has not been forgotten and has tended to promote caution and conservatism. “The banks in this district are strong and prosperous and conditions fairly good with the exception of a few exceptions where crop failures have been experienced for the past two or three years,” said Governor Wellborn. “Manufacturing plans are receiving orders in sufficient abundance to keep them operating on full time, notably the steel industries around Birming ham, the iron pipe products at An niston, Alabama, and the numerous cotton mills of Alabama ar.d Geor gia.” Governor Wellborn called particular attention to the fact that there is a distinct movement of eastern textile interests toward the south, where cli matic advantages and ample labor insure good results. Lumber Production Increased. Lumber production, said Mr. Well born, has also shown an increase and the volume of business placed with the lumber mills during the past month h»s bean highly satisfactory, resulting in a strengthening of prices. “Reporting wholesale and retail firms indicate a steady volume of business,” continued Mr. Wellborn. “Building permit® issued in the prin cipal cities of this district show a notable increase over last year, while employment conditions continue sat isfactory.” He declared that the agricultural situation is, as a whole, encouraging. Weevil Fight Systematized. “There are indications of a more systematic and determined fight against the boll weevil and there will probably be a larger cotton produc tion in 1924 than was the case last year, although the growing tendency toward the long preached doctrine of crop diversification has made such headway that a bumper cotton crop is unlikely,” said Governor Wellborn. “Restricted acreage, intensive cultiva tion, and the general use of calcium arsenate and other insect poisons of proven value will do much to improve the condition of the coming crop.” SUWANEE.

Attention, County Commissioners! Peachtree road from DeKalb coun ty line north needs scraping.

Do this and DeKalb will spur up and finish on to Doraville. They were stopped by bad weather last year. One of the county’s caterpillars and a pair of scrapes would fix it in a day or two.

LAWRENCEVILLE, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, APRIL 11924. MR. MILLER WAS G9ODJARMER Duluth, Ga., April 15, 192 4.—Mr. Henry H. Miller died at Norcross April 12, 1924, leaving his widow and one daughter, Mrs. Henry L. Strickland, of Duluth. He had been in failing health for some time and his death was not unexpected. He was a member of the Duluth Pres byterian Church. Until 1917 he operated a large dairy farm at Duluth and demon strated in many ways that north Georgia cannot be excelled in live stock and dairying AVhen his health failed and he had to retire from the farm it carried the largest and most productive herd of Jersey cows in the state, not bought at fancy prices but developed by careful breeding and selection alone. He grew the first alfalfa successfully in this sec tion, and his pastures were the pride of the farm. Many visitors from all over the country came see this farm and manjl agricultural papers carried accounts of the work and view’s of growing crops. The Miller’s love of kept open house to their hospitality was as fine and genuine as the farm. Mr. Miller’s love for the farm came as a heritage. Himself born on the farm in Tennessee, where his ancestors bred fine horses and help ed to shape the destinies of the state, farming came natural. A great grandfather, Gen. Jos. Miller, of the American Revolution, was the first to introduce blue-grass into Ten nessee and with that has meant to the state can not be estimated. What Mr. Miller’s work here has meant to the section does not yetshow, un less it be in the milk cows, many of which are offsprings of the Miller herd. Doubtless, for many years, at last, the children can thank him far the pure rich milk that Bos sie gives. Thus ends the career of one am ong us, but the bigness of his mind and heart will live on and on. PEACHTREE CITY. Norcross, Ga., R. 2, April 12.
