GOOD ROADS FOR GEORGIA The preparations for the Good Roads Sshodl following ahe Farmers Conference are now made and the ar rancetnents promise an occasion of exceptional value at lli.s Juncture in the movement for better roads. The s< boot openy Monday January 25th, and doses Saturday, January 30th. The fifteen special lectures on spe < iflc road topics will form a syste malic body of valuable and attract be Information on road building, which no wide awake road official In the state can well afford to miss. The work is planned on the sys tem, and without trying to spread it self over the whole range of theoret ic and possible methods of road con struction focuses its effort on the ex Islttng situation In Georgia and the best practical methods of procedure for the various counties of the stale. Both the engineering and financial side will be clearly brought out in their relation to each other and the instruction given will endeavor to make plain how even the coun ties with small resources can make n wise beginning In road betterment. The notable features of the arrange incuts are the provisions made for demonet rating trips over the roads In Clarke county, the actual construc tion of the one- half mile of sand clay road adjacent to the main build Ing of the Agricultural Volloge. A fort'o of fifty convicts will be employ ed during the whole week on this work, and those who attend the school will have an opportunity of seeing every detail of the work on a largo scale under working condi tions. This is possible through the splen did spirit of Clarke county’s efficient road commissioners and their desire Io give tlie road officials who come e thoroughly satisfactory idea of hew convicts are handled and how road work can be done to advan tage with proper equipment. The road machinery exhibit by manufact urers will bo another Interesting feat me The i pportunlty both for practical demonstrations In road betterment is one which seldom offers and which the state college urges upon the ac i'«ptance of all persons In the state ilitcrosti'd or concerned in road work Write at once to President Soule or Proses or Strahan if you want a seat reserved in the demonstration trips fcr which free transportation will be piovidcd.

Our literary school at Chattooga vflle has more than one hundred in attendance now. Our Sunday school at Walnut. Grove, has run down very low, only six attended Sunday —one man, one girl and four boys The Sunday school at. Sardis was very good Sunday, 40 or 50 In attendance. Nothing being done on farms. The weather is too bad to do much out door work. But we have had an abundance of pretty weather and we can't expect fine weather all the time We must have winter or we can’t have summer. And it is also very necessary for us to have some cold weather. We need freezes and snow to Insure a good crop. If we don't hove cold enough to keep the fruit back to the right time of the year we will not have any fruit. 1 had rather have cur cold weather now than to have it in the spring at planting time. Our people have been selling cotton the past week. The price was up a little compared to what it has been. ! About 9 cents is the general price for good cotton. The cotton busi ness now is nearly cleaned up un-J , til some more Is made. I don't think , the last year’s crop will ever reach the fourteen million mark. Some pre dicted thnt there would be between ' fifteen and twenty million bales made but we see it is not the case. Our cotton crop must need increase but it is not increasing any faster than cotton mills are increasing and j our population is increasing and the demand should lie as great, as ever before. And the price of cotton should now be 12 cents for good cot ton, the way other things are, and taking into consideration the increase of machinery to work up cotton and the ever growing demand for the manufactured goods we ought to have more demand for cotton than ever before. Bui it is not. the case and I think therefore it would be a wise move to cut the cotton crop at least one-fourth in acreage this year. ’ Although there is no more made than is needed. But by cutting acreage we can cause a better demand and a bet ter price next fall. We cannot raise cotton and buy fertilizer and risk ( our lands all washing away for any less than 12 cents and make any ! profit at all. No merchant, will sell goods without some profit, neither will cotton rniUs run without profit. So let us equalize the matter and di ( vide by 3, giving farmer one third of , the profits and the cotton mill one , third und merchant one-third, making things equal and fair to all. And it seems to me that farmers, manufac turers and merchants should all work to each others Interest. We need farmers and good ones. We need more col lon mills and we need tlie merchants and we need all oth , er classes of men that are following any honest trade for a living. Born to Mr. and Mrs. J. T.
