The following is quoted from the
Fruit Trade Journal of New York:
"Georgia's Fruit Exchange.
with the organization of the GeOr-
gia Fruit Exchange, at Atlanta on
Tuesday of this week, the greatest
peach marketing concern in the world
has been formed an dthe Journal be-
lieves that it embarks with every pros
pect of success. AS will be observed
from our report of the meeting pub
lished in our news columns, the men
who have charge of directing the af-
fairs of the organization comprise
some of the most successful and re-
sponsible peach growers Of Georgia,
and we hope that under their manage
ment it will prove boon to the en-
tire state. Some of the disastrous re-
suits in marketing of Georgia's peach
crop in the past are too fresh in the
minds of the trade to need repetition,
and it seemed that the life of the
peach industry was threatened, unless
some means were found to prevent a
recurrence of these disasters.
"The principal objects sought to be
obtained by the Georgia Fruit Ex-
change are more even distribution
of the peach crop to prevent flooding
the market and to keep all markets
as fully supplied as consumption de-
mands. The organization will have
all cars inspected at icing stations
while in transit and will make espe-
cial arrangements to protect f. o. b.
buyers. The enthusiastic support
which this organization has met with
in it's incipiency and the fact that the
commission merchants have already
given assurance that they will CO.
operate and endeavor to further the
objects of the Exchange seems to war
rant the prediction that it will be able

THE LARGEST BAROMETER.

Liquid Column Stands Normally at
About Thirty-seven Feet.
A huge oil barometer has been con-
structed in the city of Faenza, Italy,
as a monument to it's distinguished
citizen, Torricelli, the inventor of the
barometer, the tercentenary Of whose
birth is celebrated this year. The
liquid column in such a barometer
.standssnermally at about thirty-seven
feet, and it's fluctuations are read in
feet, where those of the ordinary mer.
curry barometer are in inches. This
is due, of course, to the fact that as
the oil is much lighter than mercury
it requires much higher column to
balance the pressure of the atmos-
phere.
1t was at first intended to use wa
ter as the liquid, in which case the
column would have stood normally at
about thirty-two feet; but this plan
was abandoned, owing to the ease of
evaporation. Glycerine was next
