EXPOSITION TO OPEN
EYES OF ATLANTIAN5
Manufacturers Say Citizens
Don't Realize What They
Have in Their Own City

The Atlanta Manufacturers exposition
which will be open from August 1
through the 10th. is going to cause even
the citizens of this city to sit up and
take notice." members of the executive
committee declare.
The wonderful display of so many va
rieties of Atlanta-made goods will be
startling they say.
with the Atlanta Manufacturers ex-
position" declares Sam d. Jones, of the
Atlanta Stove works, and he expresses
the consensus of opinion of many other
manufacturers, I'VE are going to open
the eyes of the people of Atlanta. Their
ignorance of what Is going on in the
city today, and what is really respon-
sible for the prosperity of the city is
really appalling.
while every effort is being made to
bring visitors to the city during the
exposition, it is our own citizens whom
we wish to enlighten first.
practically every Albanian who visits
the coming exposition at the auditorium,
August 1 to 10 inclusive, will be astound-
ed to learn just what are the manufac-
tureed products of the city. and how
they are made.
over $4OO, 600 worth of goods are
annually manufactured in Atlanta. The
people who live in the city as a rule
know less about these products than the
average citizen of other Georgia cities.
I'VE believe that the Atlanta Manu-
facturers' exposition is going to teach
them what is going on in their own
city"
Practically all of the 20 manufacture
ers who have reserved floor space at
the auditorium for the big display OF
Atlanta made goods are preparing for
their exhibits, several of which will be
worth as much as $4,000 apiece.
MADE in Atlanta" has been adopted
by the executive committee at recent
meeting as the slogan of the exposition,
and placards bearing the three words viii
be scattered broadcast over the city
and state. The coming exposition, for
which reduced rates have been put on
by all railroads leading into Atlanta, is
being extensively advertised over the
south.
The Merchants convention is working
with the exposition to bring many Wis
itors to Atlanta August 1 to 10, and
already more than 500 merchants in diff
ferent parts of the south have accepted
the committees invitation to visit At
lanta at that time.

PEACH SEASON WILL
END WITH THIS WEEK
Especial Dispatch to The Journa

tSpeclaI IJlspalch 20 The JournaI.I >
MACON, Ga, July 16.-By the mid
die of this week the 1912 peach crop
will come to an end. The peach grow
ers of the southern and local surround
ings state that the majority of their
crop will be on the northern market by
the middle and later part of next week.
Up until the present date the peach
crop this year has been extremely heavy
as is shown by the number of cars
shipped to northern points.
A total of the number of cars sent
from the Macon peach districts number
over 1000 which means that this year
has proved a valuable year to the peach
growers. The price obtained this sea-
son was a decided increase over former
years, returning to the prospective
growers a neat sum for their fruit.

There is no objection to your planting
clover in the corn at the last cultivation,
though we are disposed to think this is
earlier in the season Off seeding this
crop than is advisable. Glover may be
planted on corn stubble With success;
at least that has been our experience.
Where IL is planted on the stubble, how
ever, IL is generally best to
land and preparS good seed bed. If
you SOW clover in the corn it is best
to scatter il broadcast ahead of the Gull
tivator so IL may be covered into the
soil. Glover will seldom make a good
stand broadcasting and leaving uncov-
cred in this climate. Land which will
produce 100 bushels of corn is unusually
rich, and should produce clover fairly
well The thin spots on this land are not
likely TO develop a good stand. 1t would
be better for you to SOW rye or vetch
on these thin spots. If you SOW clover,
you will probably find the crimson or burr
clover the most desira BILE to use; il is
likely that the burr clover will be more
likely TO succeed in this locality than
the crimson. Sow from Is to 20 pounds
Of recleaned seed of the best quality
you can secure. We do not think the
clover will make enough growth before
the corn natures to injure it in any
way. II the late summer is wet il is
probable that the clover win make a fair
stand, but if it is very dry it is not
likely to develop to any appreciable ex-
tent.
Clover may be seeded on low moist bot
toms. The best variety for this purpose
Is alsike, since it does better in these
locations than any other variety. Alsike
should be sown at the rate of 10 to u
pounds per acre. You had best mix 1t
