the popular Demorest Comedy Co.,
consisting of fourteen people, will open
a weeks engagement at the Armory
Auditorium with a change of program
nightly. Between acts the company
will put on some high-class vaudeville
specialties, which never fail to pleage.
The Demorest Company was to have
gone to Ponce DeLeon Park, Atlanta,
but thriough a misunderstanding with
the theatrical trust, they were secured
by the Marietta Rifles to play a week
here.
This Company has for the past six
weeks been drawing large ecrowds at
Oxford T.ake Park, Anniston, Ala.
They have an envious reputation where
ever they have played! A half car load
of beautiful special scenery will be used
for their plays while here, and we will
have a chance to see a real show at
home. Their opening play will be the
beautiful gociety drama in four acts en
titled ‘““The Little Mother,”” with big
vaudeville features between the acts,
The company guarantees that every
play and word is positively clean and
high-class for lady aundiences. Over
1,500 people saw their production of St.

Judge J. T. Burkhsiter, a former
resident of Cobb county, died at Triri
dad, Col., Monday. Judge Burkhalter
removed from this county, where he
lived several years, and then moved to
Colorado. He was a lawyer by profes

Boys, You Can’t Bet.
There can be no betting on the ap
proaching gubernatorial race, nor on
any other race in Georgia, until a law
passed Monday by the legislature is re
pealed. Governor Brown has signed
the anti-election bet bill which had
been passed by both houses o f the leg
islature, which law becomes effective
at once. The new law applies to both
primaries and general eieciions, and
aly one convicved of itg vivlation is sub
ject to a punichment as for a mis de
meanor.

The Weather and the Crops.
Up to the latter part of the last week,
rain has been badly needea, especially
for upland corn. In many parts of the
county, this particular crop was suf
fering from the drouth, and the yield
will necessarily be diminished. Bot
tom corn and the cotton throughout
the county has been advanced most
rapidly for the past three weeks, and
the outlook is encouraging. Really,
the cotton crop has made wonderful
strides, and Cobb county will likely
produce a crop equal to that of last
year. The entire section was visited
by splendid rains Saturday and Sun
day, and vegetation will develop rap
idly from now on to the end of the
growing season,

ix;xpnrtant of these being that of Judge
Moses Wright, of Rome, who was in
vited to make the principal address,
He spoke after dinner to a large crowd
on the importance of a Mason's devo

was listened to with the closest atten

the lodges of the county into closer

AND COURIER.
MARIETTA, GA., FRIDAY MORNING, AUGUST 12, 1910.
~ THING OF THE PAST.
'As a Commercial Asset the
Famous Georgia Peach
‘ is a Proven Failure.
| Sloe d
. Another unprotitable season for the
Georgia peach industry has passed,
and the results in many instances have
' been that of loss, beyond the fruit it
self. Some of the growers succeeded
in getting suflicient returns to cover
picking, packing, hauling and ship
ping, but few received more than this,
and many got far less.
To pbegin with, the crop in middle
and lower Georgia was far in excess of
anything that had been expected. The
fruit in North Georgia began to mature
at the closing of the season farther
south, and had to come in competition
with the shipments frem that section
£0 far as that fruit may have been held
in cold storage. Like it always has
and probably always will be in the
Eastern shipping centers, it was either
a feast or a famine. In this instance
it was a feast, and the wnost highly
colored and finest flavored Elbertas
sold for less than it cost to place them
from the tree into the consumer’s
hands
These repeated failures to produce to
the grower satisfactory returns for his
labor and money outlay, has caused
many to commence plans for the re
moval of the trees. The satisfactory
prices received for cotton the past two
seasons goes a long ways toward dis
couraging further effort in the peach
industry.
Some few of the growers this past
season succeeded in making a profit
out of their fruit through the medium
of the tin can. While no fancy price
can hope to be obtained for this class
of product, still sufficient can be re
alized in this way to authorize the
keeping up of at least a portion of the
present orchard. It has been suggest
ed that three out of every fourth row of
trees be removed and the land planted
to cotton, the remaining trees in this
way being cultivated without cost. As
part of this same suggestion, the
grower can provide himself with a
small canning outfit, and in this way
secure for the smaller quantity of fruit
returns that will justify him in keep
ing up his trees,
Before determining on the removal
of all his trees, let the grower view
conditions from every standpoint, and
see if there is not some way by which
he can recoup at least in part the
losses sustained in the past.

Troub!e Over in Milton.
Crossville district, in Milton county,
was the scene of one of the biggest jus
tice court trials had in that county in
years. A famiy feud ‘betaneen the
Johnson and Gentry families was the
cause, and it was to settle troubles grow
ing out of this that attracted a crowd
that would do credit to the first day of a
Superior court term. A Gentry swore
omt a warrant against a John:on, and the
Johnson came back at Gentry with a .ite
proceeding. Then followed a series of
cross-firing until the men folks of both
families had been covered with these
legal documents. One case was tried,
the defendant bound over, and then it
was concluded to waive trial in all the
others Hon. Joe Fosterand Judge Phil
McCleskey were whizzed over there in
an automobile on short notice, where
they represented the Johnson faction.
The whole business will bg, sifted to the
bottom by the next Milton grand jury,
