It is generally understood that there will be an increase in water melon acreage ah iough the larger planters will not increase their acre- uge. The bumper crop last year and the big price realized have a tendency to influence the wutcrmcion acreage. Many farmers believe that the price will not be quite so good this year and there might be a chance to over pLnnt watermelons. Tobacco will come in for a few i acres thi- year. The Kiwanis made j an effort to introduce tobacco to ■ Baldwin a few years ago, but it has not become a major crop. A few barns remain and a few farmer* have realized a profit from the weed crop qlthough it has been handled on a dustry in the county while poultry stock has shown an increase. The numb.r of dairy cows has grown through a five year period. The sour cream market ha* greatly in creased and many farmers have add ed the dairy cow to their program. Advocates of the cow. hog, and hen plan of relief for agriculture have seen their theory take root and It is the belief that there will be a continual increase in these industries. Many have the opinion that cotton acreage will be decreased and other crops will be grown on a larger scale. While- there is noconcrotc reason to base the fuel that less cotton will be grown, the general discussion among the farmers liads to the belief that ccttor planting w.11 be greatly mini Dr. Goddard is a most pleasing speaker, and held the closest tion of We hearers ns he reviewed the work being done foreign mission fields, and related condition.- as he had found the his visit to Brazil Mrs. Mary Harris Armour, the foremo t tomporawe lecturers the United States, will deliver an address at Union services to be held at the Methodist church Sunday ing at 7:30 o’clock.

Mr. McCullar’s letter Fs quoted in part: You were invited to Georgia be cause we wanted you to come to Georgia. We recognize you as being the most outstanding authority in the United States on farm relief matter*, and we believed that a visit from you would be of tremendous importance to the Agricultural element of the South. You at find declined our in vitation because of a previous en- gagement, and I immediately wired Congressman Larsen to adviae you that we would postpone the dates of our Convention in order to secure you as a speaker. This was done. You very kindly accepted and the Convention .vas postponed. I think the mere fact that we postponed an important Statewide Convention for the sole purpose of securing you as a tpeaker should reassure you of the sincerity of our invitation, and that no further explanation on this score is needed. Milkdgeville and the Association of Georgia Fairs did everything they knew how to give you a cordial re ception.

I lmve a very high personal regard for Senator ILorris, »nd I do not think he would knowingly be per sonalty discourteous to you or any one else, but even had ho been right in the charges he made against you just a few days prior to your com ing to Georgia, I do not think that he was fair to our Association or treat ed MillcdgeviUe with due regard by criticising you at that time. While I hesitate to think that this attack was made for political purposes, yet I do not know why it was made at that time, and I greatly regret Sen ator Harris’ statement.

You were as much his guest as ours, and more than this, you were the gueK of Georgia at this riveting.
