AS suppose you would not be ad-
verse to hearing Of our crop prospects
in this section, | will give you few
items: The area sown in wheat, l
think, is at least double that of last
year, and the prospects for large
yield is very fine. OF oats, there is
three or four times as much sown as
the last crop, and never saw SO fine
prospect for large yield; large prov
portion was sown last Fall, as Fall.
sowed oats when not winter-killed
(Which seldom happens here), always
yield heavier grain and more BUSH
els than Spring-sown. A much larger
area has been, and will be planted in
corn than for several years past, and
much more domestic and commercial
manures used on this crop, than ever
heretofore, as the large majorit, of our
farmers have at last realized the fact
that they cannot raise cotton and buy
their meat and bread from the W est
and Northwest; in other words, have
their smoke houses and corn cribs in
other States, thereby growing cotton
at a loss.
The area in cotton will be much re.
duced from the past year, will be bet.
ter cultivated, heavily fertilized, and
probably as many bales made at much
less cost in labor.
Our fruit was seriously iniurad, e..
pecially peaches, by the cold snap in
| March; still we shall have q beuntiful
supply for home use.
Our pecuniary condition is bad, bu,
L apprehend no worse than that of the
States generally. We hope, if blessed
by good crops this year and the elec
tion of a Democratic President and
House of Representatives, that peace
and prosperity may again return, to
bless Our land and people. You may
count the eleven electoral votes of
Georgia, as certain for the nomination
to be made at st. Louis. and many OF
which, hope the nominee will be thai
honest and incurruptible Statesman
and Patriot, Hon. Thomas F. Bayard
Yours truly, G. w. A.
