Gainesville Sun: The Plant System is
to extend its branch road known as
the Citra extension to beautiful Orange
Springs. The indications are that this

as possible. Capt. j. NJ. Joiley, c.. r.
knight and Robert Taylor have re-
Gently visited Citra and gone over a
part Of the new line in order to estab-
fish partial base for a survey. The
extension will run northeast and will
pass through one of the most produce
tive sections of the state. Besides in
creasing the freight traffic and serv-
ing as an excellent feeder for the sys-

Tattnall Journal In championing
the cause of Col. John Fl. Estll for the
high office of Governor of the Empire
State, we gladly lend our every effort
in the support of a man who is in ev-
cry particular worthy of the Office to
which he aspires-a man in whom our
people can well afford to place full
confidence and trust. The ability of
Col. Estill is well known throughout
the South and his platform is meet
ing the approval of the masses, as is
evidenced by the strong support and
announcement now being received
from the people He stands out above
his opponents as a living monument
to self-made men, having begun at
the bottom of the ladder and climbed
to the topmost round.
In young manhood there were no
friends to fight the battles; he has
won out by perseverance and hard
labor, being ever inspired by that in
born desire to succeed by merit alone.
and this has been realized; yet there
are still broader fields to conquer, and
his prospect for the governorship is
growing brighter day by day.
In. no country in the world are he
roes honored as they are in our South
land, and never has our own state. had
a more opportune season for honoring
one who wore the gray, and who has
never asked for office-Col. John Hol-
brook Estill of Chatham county.
Bryan Enterprise: Everybody adj
mires brave man, and whether a per-
son agrees with Estill or not, he can
not help but respect his open manly
expression regarding prohibition.
Douglas Breeze: Southern Georgia
seems to be favored this year. Val
dosta gets the State Fair. Savannah
furnishes the next Governor. and
Douglas the next Judge of the Superior
Court of the Brunswick circuit. Verify,
we seem to be on top.

DIG pEMANn FOR PEAS.

Macon Telegraph: There was more
activity in the pea market this year
than for eight years past, and the
prices ranged higher than at any time
in those years. As was stated by the
Telegraph some time ago, the mar
kets have been paying from 81 to 81 so
bushel, and sometimes for speckled
peas $l.15 has been realized. These
prices were for peas delivered. Ma
con is not what is termed a market.
but great quantities of peas are bought
by dealers here and shipped to the
markets. Some of these dealers have
realized 80 and 60 cents a busheI on
their peas in carload lots, or about
$500 profit on a car When the Tele-
graph published the condition of the
market a couple of months ago there
was instantly a big rush to unload.
All readers who had peas for sale Of
fered them to the Macon brokers, and
these brokers are authority for the
statement that they Immediately re-
ceived quotations from all parts of
the Southern states Several hundred
carloads of peas were bought as fast
as offered, one man having purchased
more than 81. 900 worth without having
in mind a single purchaser OF course
such a rush caused the market prices
to decline, and they are still off. but
at present peas delivered in Macon
are bringing 80 cents to ST. S115 and
SLIPS, depending upon the variety OF
the pea. The speckled peas brings the
highest price. These peas are shipped
to the Northern and Western mar
kets and sold at good profits.

ADVENTURES WITH BEARS,
stories Told by and About Fa-
nous Old Canadian Trapper of
Strange Forest Experiences.

From the Toronto (Ontario) Globe.
Alexander Tremblay, the famous
hunter and trapper of the Parry Sound
district. relates the following: Two
years ago last spring he was return
ing to his shanty after buying a guam
tity of supplies. These he packed and
carried on his shoulders in the Indian
fashion. with a supporting strap round
his brow, the bundle projecting high
above his head. Walking slowly along
the main trail with his head bent. his
sense OF smell warned him of the pres
ence of bear. He looked up quickly
and saw a fair sized bruin of the black
variety some twenty PAGES in front of
him. The bear regarded him with won
dering gaze, apparently doubtful as to
whether his form, with the big pack
looming boldly above him, was really
that or man or OF some new animal.
Tremblay on his part was mentally de-
batting as to the best course to pur-
sue.

where there is marked deposit of lime
in the soil.
1t is scattered irregularly through
the Maritime pine belt, which crosses
Alabama with a width of about 35
miles. 1t terminates slowly, but it
grows quite rapidly after being started.
The tree keeps on growing for fully
$50 years and often reaches a height
of so feet. The trunks sometimes are
% inches in diameter.
The forestry division finds that the
red cedar reproduces itself freely espe-
cially because of its power to endure
shade. recommends protection from
fire and live stock and slight modifica-
ton of numbering methods. On bar
rem flats and dry hills it recommends
that dense underground and a large
number of seed trees be left standing.
The division reports that the attempt
to establish forest of pure cedar in
Germany has proFen success. The
trees were planted in the seventies
and are now thrifty and promising.
The by-prOducts of the cedar are of
large value. The waste Of the sawed
wood is made into shavings like excel
sior and is used in place of camphOr to
protect wooden goods and furs. The
waste is also made into paper for put
ting under carpets. The leaves and
twigs also furnish a volatile oil used in
drugs.
