PEACH CROP Is GOING
TO MAKE A RECORD
Mr.. BagIey Puts Estimate
at 5000 Cars

A number of carloads Of the early
varieties have gone to the northern
markets, and within two or three
weeks the movement will begin to
reach it's height The Central of
Georgia Railway handles about S5
per cent of the crop of south and
middle Georgia, and it is said that by
June 10 it will be taking the fruit
out at the rate of so cars a day.
From then on the number will
grow daily until August /, when only
the late varieties will remain.
A good many peaches have already
gone into the Atlanta market, and
commission merchants say, such as
they are, the market has been glutted
with them.
The fruit is of a small, green cling
stone variety, not very desirable, still
it is bringing from 81 to $3.50 per
crate, about % cents below the price
of last year 1t is generally believed
that the better fruit even in the height
of the season will bring better prices
than these.
Mr.. H. c. Bagley, who owns an in
terest in a large orchard near Ameri-
Gus and who has made some inVesti-
cations, estimates the crop at near
5000 carloads. He says Fort Valley
will ship 500 cars alone, Americus
300, MarshallvilIe 300, Montezuma $50,
Barnesville $50, and other places in
smaller quantities.
Here is the number of carloads
shipped from Georgia each year for
the last ten years:
1898. 2,5OO-1899 practically moth
ing-19OO, 2,250-19O1, 2,OOO-1902,
1,80O-19o3 1,OOO-19O4, 4,8OO-19O5
2,215-1906, 3,353-1907, 1900.
1t is apparent, therefore, that if
this crop reaches or goes over 5000
cars as estimated, it will be a record
breaker A large proportion of the
fruits will be canned, and the growers
are seeking to send only the very
best of it to the large markets, so
they do not fear any great difficulty
in maintaining the price.
Of the few cars of ealry fruit which
have done to New York markets from
Georgia, word has been received that
they brought 81 and 1925 crate.

With its customary enterprise, the
Southern Bell Telephone Co, will
carry the news of the election today
to countless thousands of GeOrgians,
and in Americus, as elsewhere over

race, the congressional race, and
that for sOlicitor-g general in the
Southwestern circuit. 1t will not
trifie with gossip or estimates, but

ceived.
Some bulletins will be displayed at

cal calls for news cannot be look

JOE TERRELL is GOING
TO VOTE FOR BROWN
Ex-Governor Gives Denial to
RumOr.

The position of Ex-Governor J. M.
Terrell, recently an honored visitor
in Americus, regarding the political
contest now on is so we'll known
that it seems needless to deny idle
rumors circulated for political eff
feet.
Someone here having circulated a
report that Ex-Governor Terrell would
vote for Gov. Smith, a prominent citi-
zen Of AmeriCuS wrote to him to that
effect
OF course the report was a fabrica-
ton, like so many others circulated
during the campaign by opponents of
Mr.. Brown.
Yesterday reply was received from
Ex-Gov. Terrell-which is given in
full.
Atlanta, Ga, June 1st, 1908.
My Dear Sir:
Yours received. How any human
being could say that | ever thought
of voting for HOke Smith is beyond
my understanding. OF course it is
maliciously false, and | want you
to say so when ever you hear it told.
| am for Joe Brown because he is
the better man of the two candidates
and because | believe he will make
the State one of the best Governors
she has ever had. He will be elected
next Thursday by over $4,000 major
ity. Yours, Etc,

FANCY SHOES
AND DEMURE Wells
Fashion Points of Interest
To Feminine Readers,

NEW YORK, June 3.-There is no
promise that the shoes of this sum-
mer will be any less ornate than
those of the winter. but there is COM
fort in the fact that wells are to be
denlure.
We are no longer to be garish at
heels and head.
Garish is not a pretty adjective,
probably, but 1t seems to define the
past conditions very we'll
Extremists took advantage, as US
ual, of the most conspicuous styles
invented to cover the feet and the
face, and they brought quite sufficient
comment on the fashions for both.
There never were prettier shoes
and stockings-or uglier ones-than
have been worn during the last year
Everything was permissible
Hitherto unseen combinations be-
came daily sights. The girl who
wanted to be conspicuous had her
innings, and she has revelled in the
experience. Once we might have won
dered at apple-green pumps with
golden buckles for street wear, but
now all the abstemious observer asks
is to be spared coral pink hosiery as
an addition.
In wells one also met the grotesque,
face to face, at every corner
SpraWling designs in green and
blue disfigured the prettiest face and
gave the ugly face it's only chance, as
one might credit the veil, not Nature,
with the defect.
Rainbow celors were laid over skin,
eyes and hair with which they had
naught in common. Not content with
covering these features, yards of the
yelling were more or less gracefully
disposed over the collar to float down

Some slight changes were made
among the election clerks, that both
candidates might be represented.
And today, the friends of each
side will work INCREASINGLY
The weather promises to be fair,
and a heavy vote in the county is
predicted Such is the interest mani
tested in all of the three contests,
that for governor, congressman and
solicitor-general, that every voter i'll
the county will cast a ballot.
AS is we'll known, the county pre-
cincts close at o'clock and by
p. m, the result in SUMTER outside of
Americus, will be generally known.
Here, the count of tickets will be
long and tedious, and maybe not be-
fore tomorrow will it be finished.
But the result can be forecasted,
and when the polls close here one
can easily guess the winner. Will
it be Brown, or will it be Smith, in
Sumter? Who can tell now?
