mules, in past years he has done this, but this year he will not.
Oeorgia this year produced the largest corn crop in its history.
The hay and oat crops also were good. It would be ruinous to
spend the proceeds even from 14-eent cotton for 77-cent corn. For
tunately, in 1913 Georgia will not.
There is sonic difference of opinion just now as to the proha-
ble size of the rrop in this State.
Gentlemen otherwise calm and serene
are wont to prow purplish of fare
and thump desks when the subjec t is
argued.
J. D. Price, Commissioner of Agri
culture for the State, says Georgia
will gin 2,000,000 bales of cotton. He
believes dry weather has lopped
100,000 to 500,000 bales from the early
prospect.
A. P. Coles, who has made the es
timate for the Central Bank and Trust
Corporation for seven years and
missed it not more than 50,000 bales
in the seven, puts the crop at 2,600,-
000 bales. A favorite estimate is 2,-
500,000 bales. Other figures stand In
• »rder between these two extremes.
GREAT PROFIT ASSURED.
Just to stay out of the argument,
2,250,000 bales has been selected as
the basis for computations given here.
It does not affect the argument. If
the crop is 2,000,000 bales, Georgia
still will make an enormous profit.
If Georgia’s crop is 2,600,0ft bales—
all the better.
As to 14-eent cotton—It Is not
an Impossibility, but a probability.

Savannah for middling That part of
the crop which has been ginned is
being sold freely. Although little has
been said about it, there undoubtedly

And there is little cotton left for
the mills of the world to use. The
visible supply at the end of the cot
ton year, August 30, was In round
figures only 2,000,000 bales. The crop
has been estimated at 12,000,000 bales.
That leaves 14.900,000 bales for the
world to use, and the mills of Ku-
rope, Japan, India, China and the
United States want 16,000,000 bales

Country Banker Expects
Moderate Crop, Big Prices

| Are apt to be disturbed thus wise: “Hey, stop it; you are pinched.”
It is Interesting to know what the
country banker thinks of all this. P.
D. Rich, of Colquitt, was in Atlanta
the past week.
The country banker, as typified by
Mr. Rich, does not believe Georgia is
going to make such a wonderful crop.
He doesn’t think It will go to 2,600,-
000 bales. He does think prices for
cotton will be high and that Georgia,
with two million, or, say, two million
and a quarter bales, will get more
money than it has in some years for
huge crops.
The country banker finds himself
able to get all the money he needs In
New York and Atlanta at a rate
which is not excessive.
He believes that the remarkable
ginners’ report of September 1 does
not spell a great crop so much as It
does an early movement.
48 CITIES SILL
A. P. Coles, of the Central Bank
and Trust Corporation, Is convinced
there will he a huge crop in Georgia,
and he never before has missed it
far. He writes to the country banks:
"We have made careful inquiry and
•onsiderable personal Inspection of
the crop* of Georgia. Information
implied from reliable sources leads
us to believe that we are on the eve
of harvesting a bumper crop in Geor
gia, not only of cotton, but of com.
We believe that with an open fall and
a reasonably late frost the cotton crop
in Georgia will easily reach 2,600,000
bales and that the corn crop is prob
ably by far the best that has ever
which means prosperity In Georgia,
at least temporarily.
“There is no reason why a suffi
cient amount of funds can not be ob
tained to move the cotton crop, pro
vided the bankers, farmers and mer
chants work in harmony. Country
bankers, especially those located In
the cotton districts, should endeavor
to educate the farmers to the habit
of depositing checks received for the
sale of cotton and paying their debts
by check. This would go a long way
toward relieving the currency strin
gency during the cotton-moving pe
riod.

La. G. Neal, vice president of the

the largest corporations in the Geor
gia cotton seed trade, says the Em

“Seed now Is bringing about $20 a

Maddox, vice president of the Amer-
xan National Hank, “why 1914 should

"Now, Just take stock of the year
fust closing Notwithstanding the
fact that the cotton crop for 1912 whs
1,000,000 bales short of the 1911 crop,
there have been no failures of im
portance among banks or business
houses. The failures were few and. in
Georgia, of comparatively little Im
portance. That shows the banks and
mercantile houses were in good shape
financially and could take care of
their customers who have gone
through a period of depression which
was more or less world-wide.
“The fall season opens with every
assurance of a cotton crop 500,000
bales larger than last year and raised
at less expense than any previous
v rop ever grown; better and more
scientifically cultivated. From every
point of view this augurs a splendid
trade for fall.
“If the crop experiences no backset,
we can reasonably expect excellent
fall collections. The fanners will be
able to pay their obligations to the
country merchant. He will be able
to pay the wholesalers In the cit
ies, and the wholesalers in turn will
reduce their Indebtedness to the city
banks.
"This Is sure to make money easier
after the crop moves, and all lines of
business are bound to feel the good
effect of the splendid period of pros
it *ity now so promising.
1 believe the further consideration
by • -\e Senate of the currency bill and
the -xpressed desire of the Senate
committee to get all the facts con
nected with the proposed legislation
is certain to lead to the pussage of a
wise and conservatively planned
measure
“If this is true, and such a bill Is
passed, it will eliminate for all time
the danger to the country which
arises every fall from the’ fear of
having insufficient currency to move
the crops. Tills will, therefore, be of
special benefit to the South and the
Went, and I see no reason why 1914
should not find the whole United
States entering upon a period of un
surpassed prosperity.”

To Learn Economy
Frank Hawkins, president of the
Third National Bank, is not given to
hyperbole. Yet he waxes enthusi
astic when drawn into conversation
about the crop outlook and the busi
ness prospects for Georgia thi» sea
son.
“There is a general cheerful feel
ing.'’ he explains. "Some of the coun
try merchants and the city whole
salers report the best business they
have had for several seasons, and. of
• ourse. they expect to do even better
when the cotton crop moves
“Outstanding obligations some of
them. to tell the exact truth, older
than they should be—will be wiped
out by the present crop, and settle
ments pausing from hand to hand up
the line should make money easier all
around.
“ But tills is the time when I would
preacli thrift. It is something of an
absurdity to preach thrift to a man
who Is ’broke’ But now that the
Georgia farmer and the Georgia mer
chant have money in their pockets,
or ut lean have money in sight, they
should practice thrift. They should
fortify themselves for the possible
lean years. I hope there will be no
lean years, but history teaches us to
believe there will be.
■■Remember recent history. That is
all 1 would ask. Remember the ban-

which followed, and then the short

"We have a splendid ‘house trade,’ “

“It seems to me the South Is en

“Business is good. It has Increased
promise of growing even more,” says
Ernest L. Rhodes, wholesale milliner.
"The Atlanta houses In our line

much to the energy and enterprise of
Atlanta jobbers, continually invad

Whitehall Street Filled
With Autumn Shoppers
Along Whitehall street, the center last yeai
of city retail trade, the sentiment has
been brighter throughout the year
than in some other localities. City
retail trade has held up unexpectedly
well. Atlanta has not felt the de
pression reported from smaller cen
ters. Hut thr advent of fall weather,
or perhaps just a foretaste of it, has
put life into business in a way which
has surprised even these merchants.
“We are reordering certain lines
already. That, to any one acquaint
ed with the retail business, is the
most emphatic presentation I can
make of business conditions in White
hall street,” said W. H. Brittain,
president and manager of High’s.

Stocks have been low. Every one
has bought sparingly since the first

active movement all along the line."
“Just a little more cool weather,
such as we have had a few days this

Government Asked to Send

Flaming Uncanny Orb.
ASHEVILLE, Sept. 13.—Ghostly in
appearance, a strange light, seen al
most nightly, is gaining materially in
brilliancy and has so greatly excited
the people of Burke County, in the
mountains of Western North Caro
lina, that an official request has been
made at Washington for an investi
gation by an expert.
R. T. Claywell first saw the strange
light about a month ago when he and
a party of friends were spending the
night at Cold Water.
“There is something uncanny' about
that light. The folks up in that neigh
borhood can not fathom it, and we
want a Government scientist sent to

Mr. Claywell.

“The night I first saw the strange
light I was out in the onen on Rat

o’clock. I remember that well. What
first attracted our attention were two
hazy lights across the valley on
Brown Mountain.
“We watched it with wonder and
awe. In a few minutes w r e saw a
brighter light appear at the foot of
Brown Mountain, where Tapper Creek
cuts it at Joy. The light appeared tu
be swinging, pendulum-like, and then
went upw'ard a distance of about 200
feet.
“When it first appeared the light
seemed to be round and yellow. It
gained steadily in brightness, becom
ing red as it went upward. When it
reached its greatest height it appeal
ed to be like a ball of fire.
Did Not Shed a Ray.
“But the strange thing about it wap
that the freak of nature did not cast
off one ray of light. The space around
it was as dark as ever. All this add
ed to its ghostly appearance.
“It was across the valley from us
at a distance of about twelve miles
It had rained that day and there were
a few clouds still hanging about.
When the strange light reached a
height of what seemed from our dis

behind one of these clouds .and we did
not see it any more that night.

many of those in our party came near
