THE CROPS OF DECATUR.
Outlook Good for a Fairly Success
full Year.

OutIOOk UOO0 TOT a tatrly success
full Year.
cambridge, Ga. June. 27.-The crops
in Decatur county are in fair condition
There have been many set-backs to them
this spring but the worst dangers are
now over. and tolerably true estimate
can be made.
The acreage in cotton is about the same
as last year. The condition of it was
gloomy about a month ago but 1t has
improved considerably since then, and the
yield will be about so per cent. of last
year. The corn crop is larger than Ia
year and there will be an average yield.
The tobacco crop Is about made and is
in fine condition.
Most Of it is shaded tobacco, and will
bring good prices. About two-thirds of
an oat crop was made. Sweet potatoes
are still being set out, the acreage some
thing over last year, and the yield will
depend on the summer rains. Consider
able long staple cotton is planted in the
southeastern part of the county; it is do
ing well, and an average crop is expected
About half a crop of peaches are on
the trees, and they are in good condition
we 10 moi raise any 10 snip, but almost
every one has enough for home con-
sumption. The pear crop is short, but in
good condition.
Watermelons and canteloupes are COM
ing in. There is plenty for home use.
There was a small acreage planted to
ship, and several cars will go forward
next week. The cane crop is doing fairly
well. The acreage has ben increased and
the yield will probably be 20 per cent
more than last year. The usual crop of
peas has ben plant and the yield will
be about an aN erage.
Decatur county is large and elmost any
kind of land can be found from the
white sandy ridges to the black river
bottoms. and from the yellow clay Of the
piney woods to the red clay of
the hilltops; consequently agriculture
is diversified and any crop that will grow
in temperate or semi-tropical country
can be raised here. Our lands are cheap
and productive and many are moving
from the more crowded sections to take
advantage OF them. Decatur county in
creased in population the last decade at
the rate OF 1000 yearly. At the same rnte
OF increase in 1910 we will have 5000 poo
pie The writer has been all over the
county this spring and every one seemed
to have the spirit of progress and i'm
provement. and TO be doing well. New
houses and new farms could be seen in
every direction and many Improvements
are being made. The farmers have bought
very little on credit and will be in condi-
ton to make more improvements next
year.

JACOB |. BEACH ACQUITTED.
No Evidence TO Connect Him with

Political Factor.
Brunswick. Ga, June H-Jacob L.
Beach was quickly acquitted of the
charge of embezzlement tonight, after
three days of hard work to convict, and
about two years spent to look up evidence
In the case against him. His acquittal
was greeted With applause, and he is to-
night surrounded by a host of friends
who are proclsinine him the next politi-
cal leader of .Glynn county Democrats.
1t became apparent early this morning
that the state was falling absolutely In
making out it's case, ana bets OF 10 to

The defense offered no evidence and al
though they hold certif-

embezzled, they did not present It, deem
ing the states case so weak that they
preferred the closing argument to offer
ing evidence for the defense,

state In assisting Solicitor Bennett. but
the prosecuting attorneys realized the
verdict would be against them or mis-
trial. Col Meldrim left for Savannah
solute fairness in pro scouting caused
Mr.. Beach to thank him. and express no
hard feelings. Solicitor Bennett remained
partly IN the background OF the prosecu-
ton. as did Attorney Franklin, but the
three attorneys named were exceedingly
courteous in their work and manner
which ELECTED many favorable comments
from spectators.
Attorneys Atkinson. Dunwoody and
Toomer represented Beach and conducted
the defense magnifcently and played a
winning game from the start. Judge
Seabrook charged with such impartiality
as to win general appreciation and no
case tried here in years has given such
general satisfaction.
The complete failure to connect Beach
with any Illegal transactions in Glynn
county bonds as attested by the mass of
evidence brought out in Attorney Toom-
ers rigid cross-examinatfon, has effectu-
ally killed all charges and runors against
Beach and given him a political prestige
that promises return OF his personality
to local political fields.
