School Opened This Morning
With Record Breaking Attendance

The public schools of the city
had their formal opening this
morning for the Fall term, ana
although the number of pupils en-
rolled the first day has not ct
been determined it is safe esti-
mate that there were fully 800.
This is "a record breaking enroll
ment and there is no doubt what
soever that the number will reach
1000 before the middle of this
month, as many families who have
signifed their intention of bring
ing their children to the city to
educate them have not yet moved
in. but will do so this week.
The splendid manner in which
the public schools of this city are
managed, together with the free
books finds favor with all, and
there is absolutely no reason why
any child of school age living
within the city limits should be-
out of school
The first day of school is devot-
ed principally to the distributing
of books and other preliminary
matters, and at the high school
building it is customary TO hold a
public opening in the auditorium.
Quite a number of the patrons
were present at the opening this
morning and the exercises were
thoroughly enjoyed. Mr.. J. f.
Turner, president OF the Board OF
Education made an interesting adj
dress, as well as did several of the
ministers of the city. The new
pupils and teachers were weIconi-
ed by superintendent Ritchle, and
at eleven O'clock, school closed On
account of the Labor Day Celebra-
tio2.

State to Keep Accurate
Report on Cotton Crop

Atlanta, Aug. 80. Efforts are
being made by the state depart
ment of agriculture to arrive at
means whereby it may be pos
sible to keep accurate statistics
concerning the production and
movement of cotton. Under the
present system employed in the
department, statistics along this
line are not wholly reliable and
it is for this reason that steps
are being taken to facilitate the
gathering of such facts.
In speaking of the matter AS
sistant Commissioner of Agricul-
ture Ian Hughes outlined some
of his ideas in connection with
getting better facilities. He said
that it would be necessary to get
reports from the various leading
inland cotton markets in the state
once a week and compare these
with the receipts of the same
markets for the corresponding
period of the year previous, thus
getting a good general idea of the
crop movement.
''It might be still a better
plan," said Mr.. Hughes, to have
the railroads cooperate with US
and furnish the department with
weekly reports as to the number
of bales moved.
but it is a very difficult mat
ter for us to gather anything like
accurate statistics as to the move
ment of cotton with our present
facilities. 1t is a matter requir-
ing expert knowledge. believe
if the legislature would create a
bureau of statistics in connection
with this department that great
good could be accomplished for
the farmers in supplying them
with data as to cotton and other
crops.
