Our reporter took a drive through the
farms, adjacent to Roswell, one day this
week, and reports the crops to be in ex-
oelent condition. The fruit crop will be
better this year than for several Years
past. Some of the peach trees at John
W. Poe's place will have to be deprived
Of portion OF their fruit, or else the limbs
will break and yet some unprncipled
sneak had the audacity to endeavor to
circulate the report that there would be
no fruit at Roswell this year. Among
other Improvements, he noticed in par.
.lcular the high state of cultivation the
Garrett place had attained under the able
supervision of l.. S. Mann. Roswell
