FERTILIZER TAGS !.
INILARGE NUMBERS
PrOCeedSIGO to Agricultural
n a. c4-~ -rsw
Colleges.

ATLANTA, GA, Dec. 26-(SpeciaD
All arrangements have been per-
fected by Capt j. F. Johnson, chief
clerk in the fertilizer office in the
Department of Agriculture at the
State Capitol for the sale of fertili-
ger tags, which will begin immediate
ly after the holidays. In anticipation
of this rush Commissioner Hudson
has bought eight million tags which
have arrived and are stored in the
Capitol.
These tags are placed ten to a ton
of fertilizer and twenty to a ton of
cotton seed meal, the price of the
first being a cent each and of the lat
ter one-half cent. The reason for
the difference being that fertilizer is
sacked ten sacks to the ton and cot
ton seed meal at twenty sacks to the
ton The department finds that the
sales of cotton seed meal are in
creasing annually as the farmers are
finding this to be a most desirable
fertilizer in addition to its we'll known
feeding value.
1t is from the sale of all of these
tags that the District Agricultural
Colleges of the State are supported
and the proceeds derived this year
will in all probability be greater than
ever for the indications are that the
farmers will plant less cotton and
fertilize more heavily. The sales of
these tags are heaviest during the
months of January, February and
March.

WEDDING IN MORNING ISL
QUITE A PRETTY ZONE.
Happy Occasion of Holidays
Here.

The marriage at II o'clock noon,
yesterday, of Miss Annie l.. Martin
and DIR. Guy G. Lunsford solemnized
at the residence of the brides par
ents, Mr.. and Mrs Marshall Martin,
306 Jackson street, was an occasion
of much social interest here.
Though a home wedding and at
tended only by relatives and imme-
date friends, it was one of the pref
test that social Americas has wit
messed in long while.
The parlors, reception hall and
dining room were pretty in their
decorations of cut flowers and smilax
In the front parlor were banked
a number of handsome ferns and
palms, and here Rev. o. P. Gilbert
awaited the coming of the handsome
young couple who entered to the
strains of Mendelssohn's wedding
march, rendered by Miss Margaret
Buchanan.
The bride wore a most becoming
suit of brown broadcloth, with hat
to match, and carried an exquisite
bouquet of white carnations.
She was attended at the altar by
hCI OiotCl, NlISo IL lid Wal iii, w liz
wore a suit of champagne cloth with
hat to match and carried pink car
nations. Thus completed, the we'd
ding scene was indeed a pretty one.
Sincere congratulations were
showered upon the radiantly happy
couple at the conclusion of the deep
ly impressive ceremony.
A delicious salad course was sery-
ed, with coffee. At the brides table
were seated Dr. and Mrs Lunsford,
Miss Irma Martin, DR.. l.. J. lie Seuer,
Miss Margaret Buchanan, Mr. Char
les Long, Miss Edna Martin, and Mr.
William Roberts
Misses Ruby Riley and Marie Walk
er, charmingly attired in pink gowns,
attended the brides table while Misses
Arbie Harrison, Sarah Cobb, Mary
Hawkes. and Matte Bivins assisted in
serving the salad course, a lovely
beyy of young ladies.
In all its appointments the we'd
ding was one of the prettiest Of the
season in Americas.
Many very handsome wedding
gifts in silver, cut glass and bric-a-
brac attested the popularity of the
young couple
The bride is a cultured and charm
ing young woman, whose many rare
traits combined with grace and beauty
had endeared her to a wide circle of
friends. Dr. Lunsford is promising
young physician and very popular
here as well.
Dr. and Mrs. Lunsford will spend
three days with relatives of the
groom at Preston, going thence to
Augusta, where he shortly completes
a full course at the Augusta Medical
College.

Where the Difficulty Lies.
This means that the following of
two must be transferred and massed
upon some one other and there is the
difficulty A deal between three men is
harder to make than between two.
Nevertheless, there is we'll founded
rumor that such combination has been
brought about and that at the caucus
early this week the consummation is
to be proved. Rumor associates the
names of Hatten. Eseh and Cooper
most frequently with the compromise
candidate. While the legislature is
not much exercised over the deadlock
and is not permitting it to interfere
with work nearly as much as in past
elections, vet there is a strong DISPOSE,
ton to end the contest. Most of the
candidates and majority of the legis-
lature spent Sunday at home and have
doubtless determined upon their future
course of action.
Former Speaker Irvine L. Lenroot
who has generally had the lead in the
voting so far, made two suggestions
last week to end the contest. but
neither was taken up by the other
aspirants. One was that all the
candidates go home and let the legis,
lat,1re work out the game by itself

NEW YORK.

There are some cross currents in
trade which prevent generalization,
but as whole the situation loses lit
tie by comparison with preceding years
at this early stage Of the season. The
need of seasonable weather is noted
throughout the country. In wholesale
and jobbing trade spring season activ-
ity Is not marked as yet, but it Is to
be noted that number of lines of cot
ton goods have been advanced, that
Eastern shoe manufacturing centers
are filled with buyers looking around
and that shipments Of goods on orders
are being called for. The Western CEN
ters also report rather more buying
from country merchants. In industrial
lines previous activity continues with
out changes. The money situation is
easier in a few centers, notably the
Southwest, where the banks are re-
ported well supplied with money, but
collections in the Northwest are affect
ed by backward grain movement, an
other example of the cross currents
affecting trade settlements AS a whole
