Georgia promises to be one of tbe greatest fruit growing states in the union. Grapesgrow hare and never fail. The only perfect peach known in America grows in Georgia. Plum*, cherries, pears, melons and strawberries all thrive as in the tropics. Tho best section for peaches and grapes, probably, is at Griffin, forty miles from Atlanta. Last year tbe total product in a four mile radius at that psint - counted to *750.00). The largest single peach or- *rd in the world is there, and has 70,000 bearing trees, beside thousands of other fruit trees. An other, the Woodruff firm has 12,000 grape vines. 20,000 peach trees, besides plum*, 5,000 pears and other trees. The first place will average *50 000 a la ‘* r one covering 600 acres, the other SCO. The large*t vineyard in the state is also at Griffin, and hu 40 000 Wring vines. In the southern part of the state LeConte pears are grown heavUy and profitably, asiogle tree having yielded S3 bushels a year.
