Atlanta's Postmaster.
Mr. Hitchcock also had a word to
say concerning Postmaster Blodgett
and the Atlanta postofflce.
"I have been promising Mr. Blodgett
some time to drop In on* him In At
lanta and aee how his postofflce wprks.
so I decided to look things over on this
trip. Mr. 'Blodgett Is one of the most
efficient postmasters In, the country,
and lie Is enthusiastic about the At
lanta office. He has Cause to be, too,
for the growth of the business In At
lanta has been something remarkable.
There Is nothing like the postofflce to
show the growth of a city, and the
postofflce here shows to what a great
extent Atlanta has grown."
While praising Postmaster Blodgett
for his efficiency and enthusiasm, it
can be said that the same Is true of
Mr. Hitchcock. He Is one official In
Washington who ItfVes his work. Re
cently the news came from Washing
ton that a large manufacturing con
cern had offered Mr. Hitchcock $12,5pO
a year to manage Its business, but he
turned down the offer and preferred
to hold down his government Job. not
withstanding the fact that It only pays

Baldwin. Ga, April 18.—In regard to
the condition of the peach crop
throughout the state, It may be said
the .report from this section Is In the
main correct, but In the case of the
Fhllbrlck orchard of 10,000 trees there
Is from one-half to two-thirds of a full
crop In good condition, due, without
doubt, to the fact that on the nights of
April 10, 13 and 14 they kept firee
burning around the orchard, using log
heaps, pine stumps and kerosene oil
and thereby proctected the crop.
