The most disgraceful sight one ever sees in this town is a number of young boys, not yet in their teens, with cigarettes in their mouths. A boy behind a cigarette is a fit subject for the reform school. There are many striking examp les hf the value of good roads. Wherever roads have been perma nently improved it is found that there has been a very great incre ase in value of adjacent property.

FOSSILE IRON ORES OF CRACKER STATE A report on the fossil iron ores of Georgsa has just been published by the State Geological Depart ment. The report is w ritten by S. W. McCollie, Stote geologist. This is the lourth teport on the natural resources of the State, woich has been issued by the Geo logical Department during the pre sent year, 1908, and is an evidence oi the active interest which the de partment is taking in the develop ment of Georgia’s resources. The fossil iaon ore of Georgia is a hematite, occurring in the coun ties of Dade, Walker, Chattooga, Whitfield and Catoosa. The ore is distinguished by its containing ab undant remains of organisms, shells etc., which existed in the seas dur ing the geological period in which the rocks containing the ore was deposited, and hence the , name “fossil” iron ore. Those ores have in the past and will continue to be one of the most valuable mineral resources of tlie State. The author estimates that the aggregate length or the ore outcrop is 175 miles artd that the ore tonnage must conse quently be enormous. The report gives an excellent account of the general geology of the ores and their probable origin, and detailed description of the developments which have taken place.
