Open Air Festivals.
* Of all the open air festivals for
which various cities of the South are
noted, not one appeals more irresisti¬
bly to the popular sentiment which
associates the states south of ason
and Dixon’s line with flowers and
sunshine than the Floral Parade giv¬
en in Augusta, Ga., each April.
This beautiful event, which this year
vva- participated in by many of the
most notable women of Georgia, the
Oarolinas, Alabama and Tennessee, is
made the subject of an illustrated ar¬
ticle in the July delineator.
Good Money in Turnips.
If there isn’t millions in it when it
comes to raising turnips and selling
the seed then there’s a mistake some¬
where. Last Saturday Mr. J. N.
Burden, of Bowman, brought three
bushels and five pounds of turnip
seed to the city which lie sold at fif¬
teen cents per pound. The actual
amount in pounds was 137. At this
rate his seed brought $20.40. From
this patch of one acre lie fed his cat¬
tle and gaye away turnips and tur¬
nip tops to everybody The in Bowman who
who wanted them. man
can get $20 an acre for the seed from
turnips besides the large amount of
feedstuff can make a splendid living
off of a few acres.—Klberton Star.

Correspondence Home Journal.
Royston, Ga., June 16 . —Think¬
ing perhaps that some of the readers
of the Journal would appreciate a
letter from me, a former resident and
great admirer of the people of Lin¬
coln, giving them a few facts con¬
cerning this, the northeastern por¬
tion of our state. I am so influenced
by circumstances and an exception¬ this
al and peculiar humor in which
delightful June morning finds me, as
to feel in a manner readers prompted to not
only give your some facts of
interest, hut likewise to enjoy the
priyilegeof writing a friendly the letter
to each of my friends in famous
county of Lincoln.
By way of introductory, I will say
that there is, in this section, an ex¬
ceptional manifestation among the
pc•pfe-heftf irise, prosperity *wdj£g. and -eater- with
her progress, and a
urge per cent ol resources
wealtb undeveloped. The lands
which are fresh and the soil which is
fertile, are tilled by a voemanry witli
that great and good judgement that
brings plenty to their garners, and
independence and comfort to their
thoughts and actions,
There seems to be a feeling of ad*
vancement prevailing among the ,
people that is bringing them with i
inore rapid strides towards the goal Willi- of
enlightenment and prosperity. the
in their breast reigns supreme
idea tending towards their better¬
ment, not only as regards their pecu¬
niary condition, hut looking towards
the upbuilding and planting them¬
selves upon that plane of art, science
and culture, the facilities for which
are unsurpassed by any section of
Georgia.. ¥ea, nowhere have I been
does the idea of thrift, enlightenment
and progress seem to have a greater
hold upon the people than here,
They seem not to be polluted with
the old logy idea that it is
to abandon old ideas and old notions
and substitute in their stead new
methods and new ideas, and that
traveling in old ruts is necessarily
the surest way to the goal of leady
pendeuce and success, hut ever
um! always eager to catch the inspi
ration of the moment, and gather
new ideas and new thoughts as and a
means of economy to their time
a source of revenue to their garners.
Of the climate, the balm of this
section, made so by the gentle crystali* zeph ¬
yrs wafted to us upon the
zed breezes, purified by the spark¬ flow
ling and gurgling waters that
from their source in the pure and
unadulterated mountain regions
above us, furnishing us with the pur¬
est and best of water. Now in con¬
sideration of the fact that this soil is
possessed of an average fertility, its
people a spirit of enterprise and
progress, the climate invigorating
and salubrious, I would uare say
that this, if not now, will ere long be
one of the most favored sections of
this state. Respectfully, N. Hawks.
