Predicts Record Year
For Farmers Of Ga.
State Will Produce Crop Less En-
numbered by Loans Than Ever
Before, Says Banker.

Georgia will produce. a crop this
season at less cost and less incum-
bered by loans, than ever before II
the history of the State. The Georgia
farmer is becoming a business man.
H, S. Rossell, travelling representa-
tive of the Fourth National Bank OF
New York City, who has just finished
a tour of the State, is the author OF
the above statement, which also is hif
report to his bank.
Il find farm work well under way
in Georgia." said Mr.. Rossell. In
telligent effort is being used, too. Sales
of fertilizer may be just little short
Of previous years, but this has been
offset by the careful preparation OF
the seed bed. 1 found in all parts OF
the State that scores of farmers. have
plowed their land twice this season
This is bound to count.
Finds Farmer Is Saving.
Il pushed my inquiries in many d.
rections. 1 even took the trouble to
inquire into conditions in the overall
trade. The overall business is light
this season. Insignificant? Not al
all. 1t means that the old overalls are
being made to serve. The harness
trade is slack. It must be that the
old harness is being mended. Fewer
buggies and vehicles are being sold,
No new buggies this year, it seems.
AIRY enc of these might mean
nothing. Together, they mean that
the farmer is determined that when
his crop is gathered, he shall have
something left for his own use this
year. Acreage in feedstuffs has in
creased, which is another healthy
sign.
But Texas is the booming State
this year. l went all over Texas,
spending two months at the task, and
/ did not find one weak spot.
Sending Money to New York.
Banks brag of increased deposits,
and their loans are smaller. They are
sending money to New York, instead
of drawing ii to Texas.
Il found many banks-ln fact
scores Of them-which are going
through the season without borrow
ing a dollar from the East, and for
many Of these this is the first time
they have been able to do so.
1T Is true the peach crop in Texas
has been hard hit by the frost. But il
seems that almost every peach or
chard in the State is owned by North
ern capitalists. The money does not
stay in Texas even when the peach
crop is good.
Texas will be flush this fall, bar
ring only a gigantic cotton crop fall
ure. If Texas only will exercise a lit
tie self-restraint then, the State will
be in great shape.
Louisianans Worried.
But we're all human-when we're
flush we get eXtraYagant.

threatened reduction of the tariff on
sugar, and only partially recovered

 Brothers in many respects was . remarkable man. In early life he followed seaiearing. under conditions which brought out his courageous disposition at the peril Of his life There was not a seaport of any rat ing which he had not visited and according to his tales of the south seas, adventures came thick and fast. Al the age Of 36 years he and other sailors arrived at San Francisco, and all adopted the safe pursuit of work ing in the mines instead of follow ing the sea. This was over forty years ago.
 Brothers finally drifted along the coast camps and in 1879 came to Arizona. In 1883 he took out his naturalization papers here, locating in the vicinity of Bumblebee, where he secured gold mines. He continued development up to the time of his death, and his holdings enjoy a good name
 Ii is believed he has relatives in the country. although a few days before his death he refused to di- vulge where they were, or who they arc He was born in Ireland and was aged 7S years The body is at Ruffner's mortuary establishment.

(From Sundays Daily.)


 Answer has been filed in the su- perior court clerks office by the United Verde Copper Company to the suit brought by Nels Olsen for Sl0.O00 damages for injuries alleged to have been received while in the employ of the company on Novem- Der 10. 1912. The answer refutes the statements offered by the plain tiff and presents facts to show that the plaintiff was cared for in a manner prescribed by law.
 Olsen, who is seventy years of age, was injured while in the ele- vator of the United Verde shaft at the 5OO-foot level. According to the answer filed. he was immediately taken to the company's hospital and there cared for until March l3, 1913, when he was discharged as cured. During that period the patient was paid half-wages in ac- cordance with the provisions of the workman's compulsory compensation act. Ten such payments were made and vouchers are now in the hands of the company.
 After being discharged as cured, Olsen was taken back into the em- ploy of the company and followed his occupation until August } at which time he was discharged fol- lowing an infraction of the rules and an argument with the foreman. Inn mediately afterward Olsen started his suit for damages. Anderson and Lamson represent the defendants.
