1t is now settled that the state
fair vii be held in Macn next
month, beginning Monday, Nov.
9TH, and running drought to Sat-
ur,lav, Nov 10,h.
The delay of one monta in this
great annual display OF Geor-ia re-
soArces and products viii not af-
iect the interest which the peorle
OF this state feel in it nor will it
diminish the number and variety
OF the exhibits which are sure to
come from all sections Of Georgia.
Mac is delightful in November.
The farmers at that season can af~
ford to leave home and attend a
state fair better than at any other
time Many of them will have ex-
hibitS showing the result Of THEN
years work III various lines. The
county contest for the $1,000 pre-
MUM will bring a dozen OF the
most progressive communities O.
the state to the front nth the best
show they can make Over $15,,
600 is offered III cash premiums Il
tie various departments, aud there
will be a lively competition. Geor-
LA is Il progressive state. Every

in material welfare. We are con,
tident that next month Macon will

Zone ofthe things the legis ature

reduce the number of elections in
Georgia. We had one last NVednes.
day another will take place on
Nov. 6, and still another on the
first. "Wednesday in January. Be-
sides these several Georg a cities
will have municipal elections in
December. This is laying on poll
ties little too thick. There Is no
reason why the elections for feder>
al, state and local officers should
not be held on the same day. Elec-
tons are expensive in more ways
than one and i'll Georgia we have
entirely too many OF them"
The above well timed remarks

umns. The confusion and bitter
ness created, as well as the demon.
alizati0n caused in the various in
dustries and occupations by these

do at time when help is needed
the most on, the iarm and every
other occupation, it would be best
to have federal, state and local off

before elections business Of every
kind is greatly neglected and es,
pecially so on the farm. 1t is a
