A Letter from North Georgia

a. AEGtSt SaS~ ANSa Gai ~ 0OA Asfs
To the Editor OF the Dispatch:
I left White Rock March 16, anc
made the trip all right and enjoyed
it finely.
stopped over in Athens, Ga, one
day and visited many parts of the
town. Athens has many of the mod
ern improvements OF a first class
city. There are located some OF the
finest business colleges in the South
It is one of the finest cities that ]
ever the pleasure to visit.
Well, I have located here in the
northern part of Georgia and like the
place exceedingly we'll. This is one
of the finest parts of Georgia. The
people are very modest and indus
trious. Since l have been among
them they have been very kind to
me and remembered me in many
ways with vegetables, for which !
am very thankful. Such thought
fulness makes me feel that 1 am
among friends. This is a grand
farming country. They grow every
thing on the farm from COW pea TO
sweet potato. The chief products
are cotton and corn. The corn was
mostly all planted when I arrived
Cotton is raised in abundance. The
farmers make from sixty to eighty
bales piece.
This is fine small grain country,
but they do not pay much attention
to sowing it. The wheat is about
ready to head now and is looking
very fine. The soil is very easily
cultivated. It is dark sandy one
and has but very few rocks.
There have been some gold mines
discovered lately, but they have not
worked them to any extent yet
Lard sells very high (from s75 to
$1OO per acre) in some places. The
farming here is nearly all done by
the negroes. There are about six ne
eroes here to one in Lexington coun'
ty, S. G.
The late freeze did not damage
the fruit crop at all. There will be
peaches in abundance. 1t, however,
damaged the young corn and early
gardens to some extent.
The little town of S. con
tains five large stores and one grist
and -four mill. The grist mill runs
two days in week, one ginnery thai
runs four seventy-saw gins and
ginned 1870 bales Of cotton last sea.

Baptist and Methodist-one school
that runs ten months in the year.
Our greatest loss is the Lutheran
church. 1 have met but one Luth'
eran yet that resides near here. The
people do not celebrate Easter as the
people do in South Carolina. They
do not celebrate anything but Mon
day after Easter, and on that day
they have barbecues, picoics and
fishing parties as we'll as other amuse'
ments.
They had grand celebration on
Memorial day which was yesterday.
All of the graves of the dead Coofed'
crate soldiers in the cemeteries were
beautifully decorated with flowers
and evergreens.
In conclusion I will say that the
members of the family are oil well
and like the place and the people.

What Shall We Raise?

w A8Nt S&46Ah w y Ao~SSSs
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
The important day has dswned
upon US as farmers to resort to other
means than raising cotton for Z cents
and live. Most especially those Of
US who are paying handsome rent
for soil that we are tilling. The
average farmer who tills his own
land, can, by alternating and variat-
ing his crops, afford to raise few
odd bales Of this cent staple. But
the question confronting US is simply
"What shall We raise?" This prob
lem is quickly and easily solved.
First of all the farmer must remove
from his upper story the idea that
he must raise cotton as a money
crop. When he will do this and
resort to something else, he will
readily find that there is success to
crown any honest endeavor a man
may choose to pursue.
Your scribe has no doubt in his
mind that if man should prepare
his lands and 60 into the peanut,
strawberry, pea, sugar cane, or even
corn and chicken business, and put
his honest labor, skillful management
and his full mind and a determination
to it, would make a success. And
Notwithstanding the fact that should
he fail in one of these enterprises,
why try another.
Here is one advantage of raising
other crops instead of cotton. Most
any crop can be produced with one
third less labor than cotton, consider
ing both the cultivation and gather
ing of the feecy staple. Take pota-
toes for instance. A very thin soil
with rough barnyard manures to-
gether with high grade acid with
only two or three good civilizations
is all that is necessary to produce
from 80 to 100 bushels per acre.
They also at the same time, improve
the soil they grow upon at fast
rate. The farmer that cultivates
sandy land has also a grand oppor'
tunity at his door.
With peas selling all the way from
81 to 81 25 per bushel, and just
think of the amount of peas can be
raised by simply sowing them among
corn during lay-by. Yet many an
acre of wheat stubble land lies idle
from June till April while crop of
peas could be easily made and at the
same time, the vines left on the land
after picking would be worth at least
their weight in average commercial
fertilizer. I heard a wise old farmer
only few days ago in some farm
talk say, that he produce peanuts
on somewhat large scale, that be
plants upon shallow soil, uses two
hundred pounds Of commercial ferti-
lizer per acre, plants very close, sells
peanuts eff of seven acres to the
amount of $500. He also cures the
vines which bale up at least five tons
of the finest hay, which we will
venture to say, is worth at least SIS
per ton. And now if one man can
do this why can't another do similar.
What shall we raise? Why raise
plenty OF corn and hogs for our own
home consumption and experiment
with some new crop or crops.
T have written this hoping that
many of us may go to thinking ere
planting time once more arrives.
With best wishes to every farmer
I am, That's Who.
