GEoRGIA'S CROP REPORT.
The Weather UnfavorabIe and Cot
ton Not Turning Out as Well as
Expepted

The Weather UnfavorabIe and Cot
ton Not Turning Out as Well as
Expected.
Atlanta, Oct. s.-Following is the
Georgia crop report for the week end =.
ing last night:
The weather during the major por-
ton of the week was very favorable
for harvesting crops and general farm
work. There was a considerable rain
fall in most sections in the early por-
ton of the week, but the latter part
was fair and clear. The temperature
averaged below the normal several
days were quite cool, and light frosts
formed in exposed localities, but with
out damage.
Cotton picking is the principal bust
ness at present, and has progressed
rapidly during the week, except that it
was retarded slightly by the showery
weather. In a few sections picking is
reported to be practically completed,
and the crop is being marketed as fast
as gathered. The past few weeks have
witnessed a decline in the general
condition of the crop and as the season
advances it is seen that the yield is
considerably below the average. The
top crop is poor, owing to the cool
weather. The corn crop is found to be
smaller than anticipated, although up
lands are giving a fair yield in most
sections. Minor crops are regarded as
satisfactory. particularly peas, potatoes
and cane. Rice has suffered from in
undations and is in rather poor con-
dition. Large lots of fodder and hay
have been saved, and these forage
crops will be needed, owing to the
shortage in the corn crop. Some plow-
ing Tor fall wheat and oats has been
done, but not much sowing has been
accomplished.
Note-In view of the lateness of the
season, the issue of the weekly bulle-
tin will be continued throughout the
month. and special attention will be
given to cotton. 1t is requested that
correspondents continue their reports,
and ask for more cards if the supply
is exhausted.

HOW CATTLE MULTIPLY.
There ls n" Bus'Hess as Profitable A.
the Systematic Raising
of Good Stock.

There is money in raising cattle and
no one who has ever kept them and
cared for them in a business way has
ever made a statement to the con-
trary, says the Texas Stocknan and
Farmer. A young man cannot invest
$50 in safer or more certain business
than to buy a good COW and take care
of her progeny for period of five or
ten years. In ten years $50 at ten per
cent. will double itself. but where can
a Young man loan $50 at such Il rate of
interest? Anyway at the end of ten
years he will only have 500 for his in
vesimcnt. If he will invest $50 in one
good prolific COW and take care of her
and her offspring for ten years, his
$50 will not only double but create
more than 900 per cent. of the first
principle. AS an example Of what can
be done in his line a case is given by
the Hoxie Sentinel
"'ren years ago says the Sentinel,
".john Sims presented his two sons,
Willis and Robert, with IA cow each and
put them in Willis .Iohnsons herd to
pasture, instructing Mr.. johnson to
sell or trade the steer calves for heif
ers and also sell enough Of the increase
to pay the herd bills, which he has
dore. Mr.. Sims and family returned
home from Colorado, where The" had
been seven years. and the boys found
that each had nice little herd of cat
tie. One had rather bad luck, however,
and only found l2. while the other
found that he was the puSscssor of %,
making Il total Of As for he two cows,
after de'uctng III loss and expenses"
If the young men in question had
worked and cared for their respective
stock and with the proceeds OF ma
tured animals added more breeding
animals to their herds, it is plain that
the above figures could easily have
been doubled
