that tho most important of these was tho pins

Desiring further information on this im-

at c fliee J. F. Brannon A Co., who arc heavy
diahrsin fertilizers, ore largely interested
with n nmnulncturing company in B.iltimorc,
Bi d well posted in all branches of tho bu*i-
"Mr. Brnnnon, whnt city in tho south eells

"Well, Atlnuta lead* nil tho other cities of

the largest |*ort from which goods aro shipp.xl
to iho interior."
"To what states does Atlanta soli mostly?"
"Tho bulk of Atluiita shipments ore a>dd in
Georgia, and wo also sell largely to Alabama,
Mississippi mid Florida."
"Whirl brand do you soil?"
"Our’s i* •Brannon’s Soluble Guano,’ ono of
the incit popular brands on tho market. Con

with u commercial value rating among tho

of the Georgia state law.
"Onr guano is manufactured out of the very
host material, for tho purposo of keeping tip
the standard for gradu and mechanical con
dition.
"During post seasons our fertilizers lmvo
been sold largely in Goorgin, Alabama and
Mivsivsippi, giving perfect satisfaction, with
the inmt Haiti ring results and p^rmanont
biiu-fit to Ilia soil."
Continuing, Mr. Brannon said: Wo also
deal largely in ncid phosphate*, tu«d for C^In-
pn»ttog-«iti*. borne products.
■“ Can you give us figures, showing quantity
<d feitilixers used in tho -Halted States? *
In answer to which, Mr. Hannon said:
In as much ns agriculture is tho foundation
of our national prosperity, it is well to consider
the factors which tend to increase our agricul
tural products, and among which wo believe
ciiiitui-rciul fertilizers take tho lead. We
therefore ask you to rood our statement show
ing the fiiiimmt of fertilizers used in somo of
the stntrs. From this you can loam some
thing of the magnitude of this business, and
alto something of the rotation it bears 1n the
prosperity of our country in gonorul. In Eng
land, where couiiiu rcial fertilisers aro depen
ded upon vety largely for a sucoessful crop,
the wheat yield per ncro is much greater than
in the Unit'd Mule*. While
in those sections where* phos
phates have been longest ami m«»it liberally
used, both in thu United Mutes and also in
Enctund, the general averngo ol tho wheat
nml other graiu crons, nnd especially tho cot
ton crops, has materially Increased, in fact
lias been doubled. Were H not, then, for com
mercial fertilizers, tho general fertility of our
fields would diminish, aud our greatest in
dustry would decline. But now with their
iberal use, millions ol dollars oro being added
to the wealth of the country every year-

About forty-five miles above Atlanta, situ-
nlul within a mile aud a half of Tata’s station,
on the Marietta and North Georgia railroad, is
otre of the most reiuarkablo marble quarries
iu tho world.
These quarries up to a recent date belonged
to Messrs. William L. and 8. C.
Talc, tut these gentlemen have
sold to the Georgia Marble compauy ono part
of tire property tor $23,600 cash, and feared
thu remainder for $60,000 iir stock, also re
ceiving a perpetual royalty on every cubic
foot of marble taken out.
The marble in these quarries ia practically
Inexhaustible. It is capable of nroot that o
strip of marble ono foot deep oil tho marble
ltd iuclctcd in this valley would rebuild the
entire cities of Chicago, New York and At-'
lat.ta.
This enormous bed, however, ia only one-
loutth ot tho Mutual possession* of the Georgia
Mottle compauy.
Tire marble lies, as ft rule, from two to
eight feet belowr the surface. Excavations
tsvu been made in score*# of places, and with-
cut exception solid marble was struck every
where. All over this valley, around every
spring, along every stream and
on every hillside the marble
crops ouL With tho works now completed
the company can cut and saw out 30*1 cubic
feet of mtrble daily. A railroad is now being
constructed to Tate’s station from the works,
snd text year the force employed will be iu*
rieotvd to about 300 men. The marble
hr s been txaiuiued by the ex
pel ft of the country and the
tests have exceeded the most sanguine expec
tations. The chemical analysis of the marble
•bows 96J.i per cent carbonate of lime aud
about 2 per cent carbonate of magnesia, with
out a trace of anything injurious. Nearly
evt-ry variety is found hero, comprising pure

in the south solely by lions A Co., ofAtlanta.
Mr. Jacob Hass became the southern agent
for these extensive manufacturer* in 1872 nnd
in,lh«8be associated with him, Mr. Isaac
lloos. They have worked assiduously nml
untircingly to increase their southern trade
and the good results of their work is shown
by thu fact thnt last year they sold iu their
. territory afccut fifteen millions of tho Kerbs
A Bp css cigurs. This is by odds the largest
icMhcrn trr.de enjoyed by any house in tho
ui.ntry and is duo entirely to
activity and busiuess get
of the Messrs, lisas. Their sales in Atlanta
aid e, lost year, amounted to about threo
lillions of cigars, or about one-fifth of tbeir
entire southern trade.
The firm make more different brands of
cigars than probably any other engaged in
the business, and in every store in thu count
ry K< rbs A Spfess are well known and their
gtods are a standard by which all others aro
judged. They make all prices of cigar*, and
ran satisfy any taste or pocket. They secure
their tobacco from nil quarters of tho globe,
and every leaf is specialty examined and put
aside for certain qualities and brands of
cigurs.
They never allow their goods to go down in
quality after a name is made for them, and
when rinokers settle on one of their brauds,
they can always be sure when buying, that
they are getting the same goods, and not an
interior quality,palmed oil'on the strength of
i gcod name, it is for this reason that their
•oedi have obtained such a widespread p t
arily, and. why dealers aro so particularly
strong in recommending tho Kerbs A Bpeiaa
cigars.
They.manufacture many special brands for

trade in Atlautn and surrounding country

An Intcrestlrg Story • Bow Tobacco Was First P/e
pared—Wbst Machinery Has Dons-Ttio Work
of Patterson Sc Co„ of Blobmond, Vo.,
Baking Tobacco for the World.
It is not ft little surprising that the people
of Georgia have not given more attention to
tho culture of tobacco. Our land* orb well
adapted to the plant, many of them, and it
could be raised in certain sections with as
much profit ss anywhere in the country. To
bacco ia a native American plant, nnd was
first used Iv the Indians when this couutry
was discovered. The original name was
tobsgo, and 8ir Walter Baloigh claims the
honor of introducing it into England. Its
culture is now not confined to America alone,
but it is grown in the West Indies, Spain and
other countries. In this country more than
one state makes it the staple product
of the agricultural sections. Virginia
and North Caro] in a leading in plug^and smok
ing products, followed by Kentucky and Con
necticut, the latter growing only tobacco used
iu the ni star lecture of cigars. Tennessee
grows considerable navy and shipping tobac
co, and ranks second to Virginia and North
Carolina in product. Of course the tobacco
grown in Cuba is considered the
nnffct in the world for cigar
making purposes, its reputation being univer
se!. Virginia and North Carolina make the
best tobacco, Connecticut the beat filler for
cigar». The counties of Henry, Patrick and
Pittsylvania, in Virginia, and Rockingham
nnd Stoke*, in North Caroliua,aro suppossd to
prcduco tire finest plug tobacco on earth. It is
grown alike by rich nnd poor, and pays about
the same as cotton, the finer quality] possibly
paying some better than cotton.
The mffuufacture of tobacco is a most inter
esting procce*, snd uiurry thousand people
w ith millions of dollars are needed in making
it ready for tho consumer. Bight from tho
field, tobacco is of no use. It has to bo man
ipulated to suit the taste of smokers and
chrwcrs.
Through the courtesy of Mr. W. R. Shrop
shire,who represents Messrs. R. A. Patterson A
Co., of Richmond, Tub Coxairrtrriox it in
debted far some interesting end valuable in
formation on tho subject of tobacco. Said
Mr. Shropshire: "Tire oJd way to manufacture
tobacco was to ense it on the iioor."
What is that?"
That means tho method of preparing it. A
licorice of sugar and water was sni iaklcd on
the leaf after it was stemmed. It was next
relied into bundles tho quo of one’s arm, and
then pressed into plugs and twists. Presses
were uccd to some extent in old times, but not
anything like ns much as now."
’What is the new process?"
They dip tho leaf firat in warm licorice.
The Pattersons dry it in the sun for twelve or
fourteen hours, nnd then put it iuto a dry
rocm with a heat of J20 degrees, titoam is in-
trrduccd into this dry room which makes it
pliable, and ^ it is put in cose. They then
steam it, roll it nnd prize or pack it in tho
pierces. The man who rolls it puts in a roll
the size of the arm, and then tho presses, which
have o hydraulic pressure of 40 tons, make it
into the ordinny plugs you see in stores for
cafe. It is next boxed and is ready lor ship
ment."
"Why is the licorice and sugar put in?"
"To sweeten it and make It more palata
ble." 1
"Why is it dipped?"
"To give it a uniform sweetness."
‘‘Why do they sun it?"
"To take out the green impurities of the
tobocco."
"And why do they steam it?"
"To make it pliable so it can be rolled. It
would otherwise be so dry it onnfrlaot be
inaped."
"How extensive U Patterson & Co.’s fac
tory?"
"It is ono of tho most comploto
in the country. They staud among the lead
ing tobacco mnnufacturcrs, not only of Rich
mond, tut of tho world, aud occupy tho
front rank. Founded in 1856, it has safely
passed through the vicissitudes of war and
panic, and to-Any is on a firmer tooting than
probably over before. Thoir factory, at the

stantial aud attractive structures in tho city,be
ing 12fx43 feet in dimensions, fivo stories in

tho most perfect of modern im

venience snd appliance necessary to the com
fort of the three hundred hands who consti
tute its working force. Tho factory has n
capacity of 3,U(l(),C0i) pounds per nuituni, and
its ] rcducts arc distributed over tkiksouthorn,
eastern and western slates. A branch office
ha* recently been entublished ru Boston,
which has uid with decided success. Messrs.
K.A. Patterson A Co., manufactures .many
well known brands of tobacco, among which
the celebrated "flhcll Rond Chewing Tobacco"
bus attained a w ide reputution, and is ouo of
the most popular to bo found on the
r-arket. Tho members'of tho firm nro Mcxsr*.
R. A. Patterson, R. F. Patterson and Thomas
M. Rutherford, ull natives of Richmond, well
known aud highly esteemed. Their immense
business, and the system which characterizes
its conduct, arc n proof of their capacity os
managers. Tho firm of it. A. Patterson A Co.,
is one which forms an important element in
the prosperity of Richmond, aud without
whicu tho standing and prestigo of tho city
would be considerably lessened.
"Vhere do they sell their product?"
"All over tho United States."
"Dothey chip any abroad?"
"Not a great deal, but some. Their tobacco
ranks with any in the country. They make
plug*, twists and navies. They havoa brunch
office fu Bostou, as already stated, and have
made it a greet success."
“Whnt is tho product of their factory
worth?"
"Aburre $1,000,000 annually. I got an order
lest week from a traveling man representing
pnother factory for fifty boxes of our tobacco,
orth about $J,000."
Mr. fibrepthiro has made tho Atlanta
branch ot Paterson A Co., a great success, a
fact worthy of special notice, lie is a sterling,
business man, and knows tobacco from Alpha
