COTTON REDUCTION
PROBABLE IN CA.
UNUSUAL GRAIN PLANTING THIS
YEAR PoRTENDs TO THAT
END IN THE STATE.

ATLANTA, March Unusual
grain planting throughout the state
during the past winter and the pres
ent spring. Is believed to portend a
reduction OF cotton acreage in Georgia
for this year. According to reports
received at the Department of Agricul-
ture, more grain has been planted dur
ing the past season than ever before.
the increase amounting to possibly %
per cent. of the previous years plant
ings.
Much OF the oats and wheat planted
last fan was killed by freezes in Jan
uary or February. Some of it was re-
planted, but in many cases the land
win be used for other crops.
While all reports indicate an en-
couraging increase in the oats, wheat
and grain acreage athroughout the
state, fertilizer purchases show that
there Will be no marked decrease in
cotton acreage. Sales for the past two
months have been about normal and
the prospects are that they viii
amount for the entire season to
about the same as for 1908.
The fertilizer movement has not
been delayed this year as it was last,
when the bulk of it was handled to-
ward the close of the season. Since
January ] there has been steady,
normal business, as shown by the
record of tag sales by the Department
OF Agriculture.
There has been no lack of cars with
which to handle the product, as dur
ing previous seasons.
In some sections farm work has
been delayed or interfered with by
heavy rains. In middle Georgia, it is
said that very little in the way Of pre-
pairing for planting was done during
February.
All told and considered, 1909 prom
ises 10 be an exceptionally good crop
year declared Capt. II. f. Wright,
assistant commissioner Of agriculture
THE peach crop is comparatively
safe, more oats, corn and wheat viii
be raised than ever gefore and bet
ter prices for cotton are confidently
expected

store advertisements will tell you
what it is.
Compare your store ads with
the other mans. Are they AS

If, at any time whatever. you
visit the store that has the best
