Just from the Mountains.
'Fiie farmers are well pleased
wills this spring like weather. It
v ill get them in the notion to plant
something. In fact there has al¬
ready been some things planted.
Granny Smith lias planted the
hatchet she has been carrying lor
Granny jones tlitse many years and
Hambone has planted the razor he
has kept on his person for l ncle
Hast us for 20 years. There once
was a boy in this section who
would plant every hat that they
brought for him. His idea was
that there would be a hat tree to
come up and be loaded down widi
fine hats. The people across the
Atlantic heard before they come to
this country, that there was a large
honey pond somewhere and in the
n idst of that pond there grew a
large Hitter tree. Too good to be
t rue.
Mr. Lanier, of Atlanta, who is a
distant kinsman of Sidney Lanier,
who wrote •‘The Song of tiieChut
■tahoochee’’ and “The Marshes of
Glynn,' was out his was Monday
baying chickens and eggs.
Mr, and Mrs. Williams, ol At
briita, passed this way on their way
from INacnochee and told that Air.
Charlie Williams was very ill.
Messrs .Clinton Faulkner and
‘Charlie Sears have been getting
■oirt telephone poles here tor Mr C.
F„ .Shine,.
'Messrs Mark Waters, limner
Abernathy .and John Cooper, ol
New Holland, were out this way
.Saturday evening hunting quail.
They shot away two or three boxes
of cat ridges and killed one bird.
So there are plenty left yet to de¬
vour the potato beetles next sum¬
mer. *
