On last Wednesday Messrs.
A. H. Jones, T. W. Curies, B. H.
Davis, G. T. Akridge, W. Wil¬
liams, Lee Griner, Wilburn Tuck¬
er and J. L. Palmer, tne wool
growers of Mitchell county, put
their clip for 1904 of 9,2^3u, on
the market.
There were only two bidders in
the field, viz: Mr. Morris Mayer
of Albany, and Mr. Mauldin, of
Cairo, representing A. Ehriich &
Bro., of Savannah.
The bidding was lively for a
while and continued to go on up
until a bid of 20 cents was offer¬
ed by Mr. Mauldin, and as this

closed out to that gentleman at
26 cents per pound, netting the

Fine Peaches.

peaches as any lands in the State.
The only trouble here is that the
people only put out small orchards
for home use and make no effort
to grow peaches for shipping.
