Sign boards at the cross roads
and mile posts along the public
highways add much to the coun¬
ty’s appearance of thrift, and
more than compensates for the
expense of putting them up. By
an order from Ordinary Helms
Rockdale will soon have these
signs and posts up—-a wise or¬
der which will be well executed.
A gentleman who is a cotton
buyer and who has been in sev
era l sections of the State savs
that the cotton which is brought
to this market is the prettiest
anywhere in Georgia, He ac
counts for this in a large mcas
ure by the fact that it is picked
and handled mostly by the white
farmers. The colored people,
too, take more pains with the
staple here, imitating the exam¬
ple of their white friends. This
is very complimentary to our
planters, and its results go to
their advantage. It pays to han¬
dle the crops with care, always
making a good, clean sample.
