needs manufactures, more especially
of articles in use by farmers ant
their families in the agricultural
regions. 1t is not without some
little bitterness that a Georgian

gia farmer uses a Northern axe-helve
and axe to cut up the hickory grow.
ing within sight of his door, plows
his fields with Northern pillow, chops

on, while the little grain that he raises
is cut and prepared for sale with
Yankee implements. We find the
Geogia housewife cooking with an
Albany stove, and even the food es.
pecially the luxuries, are imported
from the North. Georgias fair
