The prospects for q bountiful corn
crop never was better.
Many cattle feeders are feeding
shelIed corn to cattle at 42 cts. Capt.

cattle. They are fat now but he will
feed them until about September.
Hugh Ford is feeding 50 head Of
year old mules and only two horse
mules In the lot. They are fat and q
fine grade Of mules. Hugh is just one
Of natures noblemen. We drove up
to his house about half past II

Where they do this there is no more

Mr.. j. r. Mercer, one of the largest

shipments of Elberta peaches to north.
ern markets Friday. These, it is
claimed, were the first Elbertas to
leave Georgia this season.
The peach industry is becoming one
of Importance in Terrell county. Daily
shipments have been made for the
past several weeks by the growers
around Dawson and 1000 crates have
been sent to market by express alone,
while a still greater number have
gone forward by freight.
And this only the beginning. The
large and luscious Elbertas, of which
more are grown in this county than
any other variety, are just beginning
to ripen, and will commence to be
shipped in few days in large quanti-
ties.
While the quantity of fruit shipped
from Terrell is much smaller than
that from some counties, yet in CON-
parison with that sent from here few
years ago it is considerable.
