D. P. Handy made a business
trip to Atlanta last week with a
load of vegetables and reports
trade very dull in beans cabbage
and apples. If the farmers would
plant more corn, SOW more wheat.
and not plant so many beans and
cabbage, there would be better
times. Some say that they have
to plant vegetables to peddle on to
keep from going in debt. Well
that's all right as far as it goes.
but it don't go far enough. If the
farmers would raise plenty of
hogs, corn and wheat to do them.
they could live at home and board
at the same place, and not have to
go in debt either.
Some corn silks can now be seen,
much to the delight of the farmers.
Otis, the little son of D. C.
Handy, is suffering a great deal of

head on the floor, cutting an ugly

WORK OF NEWS-FINDERS,


Candidates are hustling around
lively. There were seven in this
community one day last week.
They all say they are sure thew
will be elected.
What is the matter with the
correspondents? There was such
few last week, it must be dis
couraglng to the editor. Even
old Amor and brother Allen were
absent. Don't get so lazy. The
time for picnics will soon be at
hand.
Miss Kittie King, who has been
visiting Miss Ida Lewis, has re-
turned to her home in Rockmart.
Mr.. and Mrs. Sam Watson, for
merly of this place but now of
Rome, visited parents here last
week.
The continued rains have caused
the June peaches to rot. The
farmers here are farther behind
than they were ever known to be
at this season of the year. Some
are not through chopping cotton
andsare not likely.to'get through if
the continued rains do not cease.
There was no Sabbath school
at the Baptist church Sunday on
account of rain.
Miss Ida Lewis gave an enter
tainment On last Wednesday night
week, in honor of her friend, Miss
Kittie King.
The Excelsior Literary Society
failed to meet last Saturday night
on account of rain, but will meet
next Saturday night, June Both,
if the weather will permit. Let
everybody attend, especially the
members, as there is business of
great Importance to be attended
to.
Singing at the Baptist church

Why not have the programme
for the Journal picnic printed?

Due West.

More rain fell last Saturday
than has in long time and it is
still raining. The farmers have
the blues and 50 has the cotton,
for the ground is blue with grass,
and if the weather don't change
soon we will have to surrender to
general green.
If the people don't get up with
their work, we won't have good
time at the picnic, for it will take
us until the tenth of August to get
done.
Don't forget that Rev. VIM.
Ragsdale, of New Salem church,
will preach at Due West church
the first Sunday night in July.
Good flannels and good soldiers
never shrink from duty.
Well, as we can't get to do much
i'll the in the field, we stay about
the house and pick up apples for
Mrs. Amor, and she makes Dump
Inns for me and / am getting fat,
though Mrs. Amor outweighs me.

Georgia rarely, if ever, saw a
better wheat year, or worse one
for saving it. Farm work has
been suspendedrsince the middle
of last week, and general green
has the field under full sway. The
losses IN wheat ard oats, ripening
orchards and neglected crops
through stress of weather will ag-
gregate its millions.
G l. Daniels fine oat crop is as
flat on the ground as if roller
had passed over it. We presume,
however, that it indicates the con-
dition Of all rank oats in the
country.
We are told that one of our
most popular young men called
on his favorite girl one Sabbath
evening lately and his manners
were 50 engaging that the family
dog took such liking to him that
he VOLUNTEERED his services as spe-
cial protection. As said young
man wendell his way homeward
by the moons pale rays and i'll
nosingaround the strange premises
he got into the home dairy, and
tableauX, as the French say, the
gravy bowl was substituted for
the butter dish next morning at
breakfast. Moral, beware o. bob
tail dogs.
The unparalleled holocaust on
the Southern railroad last Satur-
day was a catastrophe that stupe-
| fies the Imagination and is even
more heart rending than civilwar.
