The Georgia peach crop Is an Institution In which the state has come to put regular dependence as a source of sure and definite return each year regardless of weather con- diUons which may or may not seriously affect it. Last year with one of Georgia's largest crops peaches sold at 65 to 90 cents a crate. This year with a 30 per cent reduction in the crop due to weather conditions It is predicted the fruit will sell at 150 per crate and even higher. This means a good profit to the grower and a return to the state even larger in the aggregate than that for the bigger crop. Georgia shipped 4468 cars of peaches last year while the total crop this year will according to advices received by the Georgia Fruit exchange go little over 3300 cars.

Crop decrease in the central and southern sections of the state Is in spots. Some orchards are completely devastated while others have full crops. It is the northern section of tile state which has fared worst from the weather as it is stated not over 350 cars all told will come out of north Georgia this year. The fruit exchange has made arrangements for distributing the Georgia crop throughout all the territory east of the Mississippi as far southwest as New Orleans and as far northeast as Montreal. The crop will be handled through special agents and brokers in some 250 cities and towns within that territory and shipped at.

such time as the demand indicates is best. Advices from practically all points in that territory indicate favorable business conditions. The Florida citrus traits sold well and at good prices. although the crop was a large one and another interesting factor in upholding the price of the Georgia crop is the tact that this years Texas crop is short by about 1000 cars as compared with 1915. As the Texas and the Georgia crops come along at about the same time this Is sure to have material effect on the market.

It is anticipated Georgia will get more than 4000000 for her peach crop this year which is a handsome return for a single variety of fruit. I 1 I If I PEANUT PROFITS. Elisha Lott of Coffee county. adjoining Ware. made 6195 net last year tram 160 acres of peanuts.

The story Is told in a re. cent bulletin Issued by the department of agriculture. It Mr. Lott had made 150 bales of cotton ft bale to the acre. and sold it at 60 a bale possibly the best he could have hoped for.

considering essential tertilization and atten. tion to the crop. would have been around UOOIt net. or fully 33 3 per cent less than he made from his peanuts which required less care and whose yield could never have been in as great doubt. But Mr.

Lott did more than that with his peanuts. After harvesting his crop he turned hogs into the field 300 of them and they gained an average of 75 pounds each. This and the hay which went to cattle. were not included in the net figures. Here are 22600 pounds of meat and many tons of hay on top of a net prom from the peanuts themselves of 4130 per acre.

In the face of such facts as these why should anyone attempt an argument They tell the story eloquently. Moreover the peanut is becoming rapidly a cash money crop that will soon rival cotton seed. Two or three mills are under construction in Georgia today for compressing peanut oil which has a large and grow. ing variety of uses. Peanut butter is a staple article of food.

and peanut meal will stand beside cotton seed meal in Importance and value. With the coming of peanut oil mills the industry will' be bunt on the same scale as that of cotton' seed oil willbe only' nee- essary tar the grower to deliver his peanuts to the mill and exchange them. for ready cash. Such mills will ultimately' dot the state as do cotton seed oil mills today. It is the cash market that is of Impor tance to the farmer.

and. as it is developed he will find ready relief from the one-crop yoke. That the peanut will serve its Part. and a splendid one at that in bringing this relief Is already an established tact. THE PACKING HOUSE PLAN.

The packing house. plan of developing diversified agriculture along the best and most efficient lines is coming not only in Georgia but throughout the south. At a public meeting held in Orangeburg S. C. a few days ago.

80000 was subscribed at once for the erection there of a 160000 plant. It was a meeting that brought together the people from all the country roundabout. The gathering was backed and participated in by the South Carolina department of agrl. culture and tie federal demonstration agents who are at work in that state. Everybody indorsed the project most conspicuously among them being farmers and their representatives.

Those attendant upon the meeting realized at once that one of the most Important' factors in the development of this industry was the question of freight rates. Rates must be such as to encourage and build the Industry which can not hope for establish. ment on any' other than a reasonably prof. ltable business basis. Quoting one of the speakers at the meeting The Orangeburg Times and Democrat makes this statement Another important matter In the successful management of a packing house Is the question of freight rates.

It Is essential. said Mr. Long. not only that hogs can be shipped to Orarwreburp in lots but the small independent farmers inu be able to ship one two or three hogs as well. These are likewise favorable.

A rate has been effected for the small shipper of hogs that will enable hint" to ship them to the packing house. One hundred hogs. weighing about 200 pounds euch. could be shipped to Orangeburg for about 33 from many points In this state as against about 86' to packing houses in Richmond. A single hog can be shipped 100 miles In South Carolina at a cost of TO cents.

thus placing the packing house at Orangeburg within reach of the man with a small number of hogs. It Is this freight rate problem that confronts Georgia right upon the very threshold of the establishment of the packing house industry in several new sections of the state. The railroads of Georgia are today asking the state railroad commission to grant increases on cattle on the hoof. fresh meats and packing house products. thus catching the industry between Scylla and Charybdis and threatening it in both dlrec.

tions. Considering their apparent efforts to promote agricultural industry along their lines and in all parts of the state it Is impossible to conceive what the railroads can be thinking of in insisting upon rate increases that must necessarily undermine this development upon the most Important lines along whIoi it has advanced in the last two decades. If Georgia's railroads want to build new business. it they are looking to the future to give them a greater volume of traffic they have gone at the solution of the problem backwards. MORE MEN I More men for king and country' And in England they must go now if they can pass at an.

whether they will or no. More men And according to English Journals examinations for army service are not as rigid as formerly for it is the time of supreme effort. These examinations sometimes develop humorous features but it is grim humor at best. Applicants for exemption have complained that they were only cursorily examined. as in the case of a man who had sciatica and lumbago.

The man de. dared that the army doctor placed the stethoscope over his waistcoat Non-combatants for conscience sake" have an easier time of it. The London Observer tells of an artist who stood before a local appeal tribunal and read seven fools. cap pages of his conscientious objections My brethren in Chust belong to nil nations he said Some of them are In the armies of Britain's enemies. and I am forbidden to sla them.

So the war that seems to have no conscience when the killing is on admits conscientious scruples beforehand. But correspondents at the front say that conscience is at work in the trenches. The men hate to kill When the heathen go to it they callit a holy war probably to distinguish it from that of the civilized barbarians. One report of Villa was that he's "unshaved. By this time he's probably lost in a forest of whiskers.

Park Board Decides Not to Hold Concert At Grant Park Sunday In an effort to prevent a quorum and thus up a vote on the proposition of doing away with the proposed band conett at Grant park on Sunday afternoon A. X. Thorn and J. E.

Belcher members of the park board from the second and third wards walked out of the special meeting of the board Friday afternoon following a heated discussion on the proposed action. A few minutes after they left the room Councilman George P. Freeman and C. I. Braoan walked Into the room and made up- the quorum.

The motion to do away with the band concert at Grant park Sunday afternoon was put to the vote and carried. At the last meeting of the board it was decided to begin the Sunday concerts at Grant and Piedmont parks Sunday. The special meeting was called for the purpose of rescinding me order as applying to Grant park. It was pointed out to the Doard that as a large number or the members of the. band which was to have played at Grant park.

are also members of the Shrine band which will play at Piedmont park free of cost to the clt they could not be in two places at the same time so It was decided to cancel the concert at Jsant park. The vote of the board was not legal said Mr. Belcher after the meeting. and I am going to take some stops on the action of the board. Any vote they may have taken requires A quorum and when Mr.

Thorn and I walked out the did not have a quorum and the meeting had been called to order. It makes no difference who walked In after we left. I objected because I felt the concert at park should not be put off since the city had made several announcements that it would be held. Supreme Court of Georgia. Judgments Affirmed.

Sknright president of the Georgia Railway and Power company appeared before the street committee of council Friday afternoon to protest against the company being forced to relay their tracks on West Peachtree street from Baker north under a notice from the city. The street Is being repaved with a permanent pavement of bitulithic and the company had been put on notice that it must lay a permanent foundation. The protest of Mr. Arkwright was heard by the committee and a resolution was adopted to be presented to council at its next meeting exempting the company from this work. Mr.

Arkwrlffht argued that in view of the fact that West Peachtree was paved with a permanent pavement in the form of Belgian block at the present Ume and that the company had protested at a previous time against being forced to relay their tracks the change should not be required. Will Relny If City insists. He said. It this street was not already permanently paved and If the Improvements were for anything but the convenience of the people along the street who do not like the rough pavement of block. the company would not protest.

I am of the opinion that legally we cant be forced to make the changes the city asks. But we don't want to be arbitrary on the matter and if the city in- i slats we will do what council asks. I A delegation of citizens living on Grant. street between Glenwood and Georgia avenues appeared before the committee to protest against paying the bills sent them for paving this section of the street with wood I block on a concrete base just finished by Ih city forces.

Mr West was appointed a committee or one to find out the attitude of the company. Discussion or proposed hang in the name of Wes Fifth street brought tut a lively intrt of words between Councilman W. II. Johnson mid J. Yo Maddox.

Some property owners along the streetwant the name changed to Homer street and others protest that this should not be done. The dl iu ion resulted In an argument between Councilman Johnson and Mr. Maddox as to whether or not Anna street was open to traffic. Mr. Maddox said the street was open and that It was being used every day and had sidewalks both sides.

Councilman Johnson argued that it had not been opened and was not passable. I am surprised that the councilman from the ward should know so little about the streets in his section. That street is being. used every day to my certain knowledge said Mr. Maddox.

I I know as much about that street as you I or anyone else does. and I know it is not open replied the councilman. I knew It long before Mr. Maddox did. The committee decided to deter action to wait the finding of a visiting committee.
