A GUILT FOR THE STATE FAIR.

Hawkinsville Dispatch and News In
last weeks Dispatch and News we told
about the remarkable achievement of
little Miss Annie Brown, aged Is years,
of Finleyson, who had made quilt
containing 1,173 pieces. Now comes
Miss Amanda Grace, the bright and
pretty little daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
T. H Grace, of this place, who says
she can beat the little girl at Finley
son by several squares" Miss Grace
is only 1917 years old, but has made
a quilt containing LAO pieces, each
one of which was cut from her own
garments. She calls her quilt THE
Double Four Patch and those who
have seen it think it is a most won
derful piece of work for one of her age.
Miss Grace is going to send her quilt
to the State Fair at Savannah and II
will no doubt take the premium.

CONTROLLER CROoM's REFORM.

Kissimmee Valley Gazette: Florida's
new controller, Hon. A. c. Groom, has
dropped bomb into the court houses
and newspaper offices of the state, es-
pecially of the southern counties. that
has thrown these centres of activity
into state of thunderstruck commo-
ton. Mr.. Groom is taking advantage
of the new tax law to save the state
between 100000 and $4,000 He is abol-
ishing the tax list as a lucrative feat
ure of journalism. He is introducing
a startling reform. In a series of
eight circulars addressed to the asses
sors. collectors and clerks. he puts a
construction on the new law that wipes
out the old practice of selling and ad-
vertising the same piece of land year
after year. He has ruled that every
piece of land against which there is an
outstanding tax certificate held by the
state must be taken off the assessment
roll. As the percentage of lands sold to
the state every year is about ninety
per cent, this ruling will cut down tax
sale lists to almost nothing. The con-
troller's action will entail a heavy loss
on the newspapers that have hitherto
been lucky enough TO secure the tax
list, and IL will also entail extra work
for less pay on the assessors and col
lectors, but ii must be admitted that
it will save the taxpayers a great deal
OF money.
