DECISION IS REACHED TODAY
Meeting Held at Which Situation
Is Thoroughly Considered
WISHES OF PUBLIC ARE Needed

Withdrawal of the troops will not be
commenced for the present, according
to a decision reached by the state mil
itary board at its meeting here this
the public, and the general desire that
the guards remain until all feeling of
fear among the citizens has subsided,
resulted in this finding. Ii is therefore
probable that no movement Of the
troops viii begin for several days at
least, and when the mov vement is start
ed IL will be gradual. a meeting of the
board will be held Sunday or Monday
when "a canvass Of the situation will
again be made.
General T.. L. Abbey received word
from Governor w. y. Ferris giving the
board the power to exercise its own
judgment in the natter OF removing
the troops The action of the board
is the result of this message from the
governor
This decision will he received with
pleasure by business men and citizens
in general, who have expressed opin-
ions that the withdrawal of the troops
at present would leave the communl-
~ insutiiciently guarded in case of an
outbreak. While the expense to the
state is realized. the presence of troops
is deemed necessary by local residents
to insure peace and quiet.
The guards about the mining prop
critics will be maintained until il Is
shown that such action is unnecessary
or until the civil authorities can take
complete charge of the situation. IL
Is also probable that when the troops
are removed they will depart in units
SO as To insure protection over a great
er period
The impression in military circles
is that the governor will not visit the
district

Professor Hunt and Mr.. Dobbs Ar
range For Agent of Agricul-
tural Department.

A Demonstration Agent of the Ma
tional Department Of Agriculture is
to be located at the Agricultural
school at MacLand and will show the,
Cobb county farmers how to handle.
their crops and treat their soils un-
der the most approved methods.
Mr.. Campbell, the State Agent, was.
in Marietta few days ago and con-
ferred with Mr.. f. p. Dobbs, one of
the directors of the school He has.
already taken the matter up with
PROFESSOR Hunt, and it was agree
able all around to locate the demon
stration agent at the school, so that
it will be done
This will be great thing for Cobb
county, as the whole trend of modern
farming is to apply scientific meth
obs for the production of greater
yields.
The Agricultural School at Mac
Land is the best in the State, and has
the largest average attendance. The
enrolment at the present time is 1863.

FARMERS ARE HAPPY
OVER COTTON PRICES
PLANTERS IN COBB WILL RE.
CEIvE OVER MILLION
AND HALF.
1t Is Estimated That $4,000 Bales
Will Be Made in the County.
Old Debts Wiped Out.

The farmers of Cobb county will
receive for their cotton, which is
now being marketed, the princely
sum of more than million five hun
dred thousand dollars.
The most conservative estimates
put the figures for the county at
$4,000 bales. At thirteen cents a
pound average, with eight to ten
dollars a bale for cotton seed, this
will bring not less than seventy-fiye
dollars a bale, and $4,000 bales at
that price will amount to a million
six hundred and fifty thousand dol
lars.
Cotton is now bringing from thir-
teen and a quarter to thirteen and
three-quarters. If it should go up,
the farmers may receive in the neigh
borhood of two million dollars for
the crop.
This is a great showing for the
Banner County for single crop, and
it will put the farmers in fine shape.
Some of them have already paid up
debts that were carried over from
last year and have paid this years
accounts also.
Marietta is declared to be the best
cotton market in the state, the buy
ers here paying the highest price the
market will afford.
Cobb produced year before last be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000 bales, and
last year there was a short crop of
only seventeen or eighteen thousand
bales
