ALBANY, Aug. 23.—That about 50
per cent of the cotton in the Albany
territory Is from ten to fifteen days
earlier than last year is the estimate
of well-informed cotton men in Al
bany. The fact that Albany has re
ceived several hundred bales already, [
not counting that moved direct to the
compress, is considered evidence that
its estimate is approximately correct.
Last year, in addition to making a j
poor cotton crop, the farmers had no i
forage and haVe had to buy high-
priced feed for eight months. While !
the acreage in feed crops this year is i
not much greater than it was last,
the farmers have paid more atten
tion to its cultivation, therefore milk
ing a better cop. With a bumper cot-
on crop and plenty of feed for their
•lock, the farmers expect a season of
i-rosperity.

DUBLIN, Aug. 23.—An unusual salt
to test the validity of an old statute
which has been codified in the Geor
gia laws since 1837 and which is said
to be the first suit of its kind ever
filed in the State, has been filed here
against G. A. Baynard, a former mer
chant of Dublin, by Arthur H. Cod
ington, of Macon, for the sum of
$151,000.
The law upon which the suit Is
based says that no business partner
ship may insert in their firm name
the name of any Individual not ac
tually a co-partner nor continue in
such firm the name of a retired part
ner, under the penalty of $100 a day
for each day the name is so used.
In his suit Codington alleges that
Baynard indorsed certain notes with
an old firm name of G. A. Baynard &
Son and secured credit in this man
ner after the original partner had re
tired from business.
The case has excited a good deal of
interest here, and much discussion as
to whether the old statute, can be en
forced and Baynard be made liable
for the full amount of $151,000 or
I that the statute can not be enforced
now. It is said that Codington has
filed the suit more to test the validity
of the law than for any other pur
pose, and does not think that he has
been damaged to the extent of the
sum named.
