garine is rapidly going out of use in that
city. It's perhaps from fear that an over
abuDdants supply Of old ''ole" shall be shipped

has all worn of, and consumers Will rapidly
fall back to their old love for COW butter. One
Of the good effects of Democratic administra-
ton will be to bring the people back to earlier

was taken OH the question of prol.ibi-

until tomorrow afternoon to consider
whether OF not he would call up the
motion to reconsider.
There was considerable warm discus
SION upon the subject. on the ground
that the issue. had been settled indefin-
ltely postponed and should not be taken
up again.
as. Jonesof Hutchinson said it was
unfair to take up the question, as many
OF those who had taken an active part
IN the issue had gone home.
Those OF the prohlbitioniSts present
said that they We're perfectly willing to
abide by the disposition Of the question
made, and did not wish to take it UP
again. They did not want to reopen
the question, they stated, even if they
knew they could carry it.
The motion by Mr.. Moody to recon
slder the vote by which the issue was
Indefinitely postponed was defeated
and Il motion was made and carried tC
lay the motion to reconsider on the
table.

the nights. He thinks that later on they
will fruit heavily, ana owing to the back

keted before the gardeners outside of

that proves the case. gardening this sea-

The outlook for oats is not good in Ran

promise we'll. There are good stands of
both. Cotton chopping is the order of the
day.

Monday sample of some sugar made

Georgia, and it remained for Spalding
county to demonstrate it.
Crops alOug the road from Gum creek
to Albany, a distance of SO miles, through
Worth and portion of DoOlY, look well
and promising. Cotton is very small as
yet, but has come up with great regular
ity. On some plantations chopping out
has begun. The corn also is small, but
the stands are remarkably fine, even on
the gray, sandy Uplauds. Oats are de-
cidedly the best and most fl0Urishing
crop, the variety known as the May oats
having the best looking appearance.
