Buchanan, of New York, formerly an Atlantan, delivered an In teresting address at the luncheon at the Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Buchanan ipoke of his youth In Florida, hie 111 health and subsequent recovery In the good atmosphere of Georgia, of hla drifting throughout tha country and his lore for the old elate. Ho then took up the resources of thr South, calling at tention to the pneo: jllltles of this see- Dos. In part, he said: 'Tlrst, of course, comes the cotton induetry, with all Its various textile possibilities. North Carolina and South Carolina have taken the lead In this enterprise. Our friend. Mr. George I. Whitney, of Pittsburg, Pa., Is the presi dent and principal owner of one of the largest power plants In the world, which harnesses the Yadkin river, about thirty miles from Salisbury, N. C., with in a radius of eighty miles of which power houes Is located several hundred cotton mills, furniture factories and other manufacturing concerns which will employ the electric pbwer generat ed by this enormous plant. Perhaps It Is not too Immodest for me to tell you that Mr. Whitney ho* hllowed me to assist him In supplying the several mil-1 Itons ot dollars to construct this plant, I which will be entirely finished before! the end of the present year, and through I Mr. Whitney's Influence I have the hon or of being vice president of the Whit ney Company. “Our Southern manufacturers com plain that they are unable to manufac ture the highest grade of cotton goods because they can not procure sufficient skilled labor, whloh means that we shall have to do something to attract the proper kind of labor. Are there any conditions here In the South that prohibit labor proficient In the science of transforming the native product Into tho best and most profitable fabrics? If so, such condition should be eliminated If possible, as It seems to me we ought to have the fullest benefit of the man ufacturing, unless we can find a more plausible reason than the difficulty of obtaining labor. The Southern states produce 80 per cent of the world's cot ton supply, yet Manchester, England, operates more cotton spindles than are operated by the whole of tha United States. Favors High-class Labor. "Right here and In every state of the South la raised practically everything In the nature of human food and our average climate Is as good as any cli mate In the world, therefore I can not understand why we should sell our cot ton at the lowest price at which It ever sella, ship It 8,000 miles across the At lantic ocean to be manufactured, then let It be shipped back again and pay the highest price at which the finished f iroduct ever sells. Until I am better nformed, I shall hold that ws can solve the difficulty by encouraging coloniza tion of a desirable class of skilled la bor, and psrhapa this could be done If we follow somewhat the lines followed by James Hill, the financial king of the northwest, which section has been so rapidly developed during recent years, “I have always advocated the estab lishment of more agricultural colleges and experimental nations where our farmers can get the best scientific In formation In regard to tho various problems ot the field and suggestions Going Away?

Here In Georgia, where the soil la so rich and the climate so favorable, I believe the value of your acres could be multiplied many times by a greater diversification of your crops and a more thorough application of the scientific principles propagated by the agrtcul- :ural department. "The development of the canning and dried fruit Industries should result as profitably to those who engage In them here as it has to many Californians who have mode fortunes tn such enterprises, besides adding to the wealth of the state and Increasing the value of Its lands. I believe small land-holders should engage more extensively In truck farming and the cultivation of berries, luscious fruits and melons for Northern markets, where the demand for these products Is practically unlimited. This year, for Instance, melons and berries are seen only on in. tables of th* more well-to-do people up there because the cold and unseasonable spring greatly reduced the output of the atatea north of the Mason and Dixon line, tn this climate big crops could be raised every year, "Business men In all lines, os well as farmers, should co-operate In their ef forts to develop our agricultural re sources. as prosperity for the farmers means prosperity for business men. We should strive for the establishment of agricultural schools and experimental nations. We should take an active In- tercst In their work and seize every advantage that zclcnce develops to help ourselves. The results will well repay us for the trouble, ns has been proved repeatedly In different parts ot the country. "Another factor upon which our fu ture prosperity largely depends Is tho development of proper transportation facilities. In the West, railway con struction has been followed Invariably by Increased population, stimulation of Industry and the rapid growth ot wealth. Our people should co-operato In building trolley lines and feeders to the trunk lines In order to place them selves In closer touch with the princi pal markets for their products."
