President of Southern Railway
Takes Cheerful View of
Conditions,
WASHINGTON Ma-
Finley, president of tb* Southern rail
n-ay. take; a hopeful vi«? *.f tiy® Indm -
trill and business situation in the
South The Southern radva-. he said,
had suffered little from the flood;, and
the prospect vas for a record corn crop
h the Southeastern state? and a con
siderably larger yield of cotton to th*
'.ere than in former years Discussing
teneral conditions in the territory
■•rv»d bv the lines of th® Southern
•aflwav Pros>d*nt Fipi*v said
During f h* prolonged depression
in th’ cotton textile industri the
mills of th« Southeast suffered in
common with those of other cotton
manufacturing loralltiec With the
revival of that industry th*' ar*
again prosperous R- far the lar
ger proportion of the cotton mills
of the Southeast are tn territory
served by lines of the Southern
railway system, and improved con
ditions in the indus.tr? are reflected
in Increased milt riaffi* As with
cotton, so with tobacco, timber,
imn ore and th* other raw mat*
rial? of th* Southeast, present t»n
dencl*.- ar* < n th* direction of d*-
r eloping manufacture In proximity
to the sources ot production, and
the building up of a large diversity
of industries
While th» late spring and th*
unusually wet weather hex* retard
ed farm work in many parts of the
South, th*r* has been comparative
ly little damag* from high water in
th* territory direct]? served by th*
Southern railwar.
In former years man? farmers of
th* cotton belt have been large
buyers of supplies which they could
very well have produced on th*ir
farms In order to buy their sup
plies they have often been under
the necessity of selling cotton re
gardless of market conditions In
creasing numbers of them are now
raising their own supplies They
will consequently be able to market
cotton with more regard for the
economic demand for it. and th* re
sult will prove beneficial to th* *n
ti’-e Southeastern section
The present outlook in th* South
eastern states is for the largest crop
of corn ever made in that section
and for increased production of
other crops, while all through th*
territory traversed bv our lines our
live stock and dairy agents report
Increased interest in live stock and
dairying with a tendency toward
Improvement through purchase of
pure bred animals
Berrios and vegetables ar* now
moving freely from the more
Southern localities. The Georgia
peach movement will soon begin,
and the present outlook is that the
Southern railway lines will handle
between 5,000 and 6,0(10 carloads of
peaches this year, as compared with
about 900 carloads last year Th*
outlook for apples in Virginia
Western North Carolina and other
apple producing localities on out
lines is also ver? encouraging. Ad
ditional orchards ar* annually com
ing into bearing, making the apple
crop a traffic factor of increasing
importance.

[~AT THE THEATERS ;
THIS WEEK’S BILL AT FORSYTH
IS PROVING VERY POPULAR
Th» r * is everything in th* bill at
th* Fmsvth this week that has th* sort
of interest that attracts people to a

It is on* of th* best combinations of!
vaudeville th* Forst' th has ever of
fered. and this condition has created
lan unusual demand for seats
Th* Lasky sketch, "In 199?. ' has at
tracted great interest and is becoming
the topic of theatrical conversation,
and people who have seen It ar* ad
vising their friends tn go and laugh
It deals with what Is supposed to b*
in 1999. when woman Is boss Poor
man has tn suffer all th* things that
woman suffers now -he is left alone at
home while the boss goes tn the club,
and all that sort of thing. There is the
villain woman, who steals poor mast
from his home, and the wronged wife,
who orders h»r better half to leave the
home. It is funnier than anything the
Forsyth has ever offered.
Pat Rooney and Marion Rent present
an act that has registered one of the
best hits of the season. Rooney is
alone in a class of dar.’ing He Is
better than any dancer that has been
In Atlanta since the one visit of George
Cohan, and even at that th* Broadway
hero is not exactly superior to the
clever voting man who is so popular al
th* Forsyth now . There are other good
acts, making the bill a grand enterj
tafnment
Willa Holt Wakefield will be the star
of the bill for next week. Mlsc Wake
field is a Georgia girl, who has won the
admiration of theatergoers all over the
world. She is conceded to be a star and
will offer an act that will be a powerful
drawing card.

sirable Imme sections, now known as
South Park The people were educated
bv views of colored slides showing the
first principles of landscape gardening

how these principles were applied to
bring about this beautiful transforma
