peal to Judge W. B. Thomas, of su

verdict, inadvertently read it as though
the word "guilty” was written and it

Cotton Planted Early In Thomas
Thomasville.—It is probable that
the last of March will see most, if not
all, of the cotion crop for 1923 plant¬
ed in this section of the state. The
old way was to plant cotton some time
in April, which was perhaps the best
way for the cotton at that time, but
nowadays w'hen everything is done to
get ahead of the boll weevil the crop
is put in as early as possible to get
ahead of the inroads of that great
pest and get the plant so far advan¬
ced as not to be materially injured by
its attacks. That the acreage in cot¬
ton is to be greater in this section
this year than it has been in some
years there is no doubt now and with
the price of the staple still going up
those who were a little doubtful in the
matter have now decided to plant, or
plant more.
Home Robbed Of Jewelry
Atlanta.—Jewelry, valued at $000,

inum diamond cluster ring, contain¬
ing a large diamond surrounded with
eight smaller stones; a platinum ring
set with a ruby, surrounded by eight
small diamonds; and another ring. En¬
trance was gained through a side win¬
dow. The intruders crept up stairs,
entering the bedroom of Miss Dorothy
Hagan, who was on the sleeping
porch. The drawers of her dressing
table were ransacked. Detectives are
unable to find any clues.
Asks Cost Of Building Road
Clarkesville.—Itemized statements
of the total cost of the public highway
from Cornelia to Clarkesville, which
has been under construction for a
number of years, are asked by the
grand jury sworn for the March term
