TOWNSVILLE, GA, Sept S..-A number
ofpeople have planted rice in Thomas county
this year. Il is Of the upland variety and
the crop is very fine. The low and sandy
lands in some parts of the county are well

yield seventy-five bushels TO the acre.
DR.. Mallette also showed the writer a
sample Of Spanish peanut hay. The hay
aud The rice were both grown on the very
poorest quality of land. Dr.. Mallette says
he is satisfied that he has made ten tons of
this hay to the acre. he pulled up the pea
vines just before the nuts reached their full
