Mrs. Brown succeeded in getting me
Saturday afternoon where the politi-
cians-some of them. anyway-have
been trying unsuccessfully for many
days 10 get me, said Governor Brown
today. and that was up a tree!
You see" continued the executive.
we have about 40 pecan trees on our
little farm in Cobb county, and Mrs
Brown insisted on my climbing one of
those trees Saturday and getting her
some samples of the fruit thereof
The woman tempted me. and 80
climbed was not altogether unlike
'Br'er Rabbit in that NJ was jist
beeged to climb in the circumstances!
We'll, it wasn't a particularly tall
tree, and l didn't have to lower the
executive dignity to any great extent,
and this is part of what l got"
And then the governor displayed IA
hundred or more OF as fine papershell
pecans as ever graced fruit stand at
Christmas time, and said there were
plenty more where they came from.
The governor, as an experiment set
out some 40 pecan trees on his farm
near Marietta about ten years ago, and
the experiment has proved to be great
success.
The pecans he brought to Atlanta
and the executive office are bountiful
specimens-largc, meaty and of splen-
did flavor.
The governor says he has no doubt
whatever that the cultivation OF pecans
on a large scale in north Georgia could
be made most profitable.
Former Commissioner of Agriculture
Thomas 6. Hudson, for time can
didate for governor, has his ideas about
politics.
He knows that the game is. for one
thing, not all beer and sltittles-- what
ever that is--nor yet is ii universally
guaranteed to be sunshine and roses,
from start to finish.
Mr. Hudson was reared on farm,
and only took up politics as side line
once upon a time, albeit he has man
aged to get away with II handsomely,
as q rule.
Nowadays, however, Hudson's mind
turns back TO his first love, and in
farming, not politics. he sees anew the
glory and the salvation OF his native
state.
Talking recently in Savannah, for
the benefit of the press of that city,
he said:
eff the people of Georgia would
devote more attention to raising
the 100000 900 worth Of farm
products they send outside of the
state for each year. it would do
a lot more good than all the politi-
cal authorities we hear about"
q lot OF people agree with Mr.. Hud
son, too--even if the game of politics
will go right along as strenuouSly as

With the Mexican situation once more

Gently, is not completely settled.
It is confidently expected among army

For the time being, the note of Sec

Not wanting American troops to be
landed in Cuba again and not wanting
the American flag to be hoisted there
once more and to stay hoisted. Cubans
of all stripes sunk their differences tc
the extent of avoiding revolutionary
outbreak.
The belief Of officials here is that
while the Knox warning served Its
purpose for the time, II will not lone
