Attention Farmers

The Marketing Department of
the A. B. & A. Railroad is very
anxious to obtain the names and
addresses of all farmers in the
territory traversed by the A. B.
& A., who have or will plant any
acreage in the following crops:
Watermelons, Cantaloupe, Sweet
Potatoes, Irish Potatoes, Toma-
toes, Pepper, Snap Beans, Squash,
Roasting Ears, etc.
The A. B. & A. Railroad estab-
lished its Marketing Department
in order to stimulate the growth
of money crops other than cot
ton. The idea being, that our
farmers would be only too glad
to plant such crops provided
market could be found for same.
Any farmer who has planted
or desires to plant any acreage
in these crops will find it greatly
to his interest to write Mr.. N. E.
Marshburn, market agent, 613
Austell Building, Atlanta, Ca,
for blanks to be filled out show
ing the number of acres to be
planted in each crop enumerated
above, which will enable us to
estimate on the probable yield,
thus giving us some basis on
which to work.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

Only Z more weeks of school.
Everybody go out to the pre-
llminary contest tonight at the
court house.
There are several splendid
musical numbers and the best
speakers in school will recite.
There are only two declarations
on, but these two will certainly
do their best to make up for the
small number, The admission is
only 10 and 20 cents. After vari-
Gus expenses are paid the results
will go to the benefit of the
athletic association. They GER
tainly need a benefit.
The boys are still playing mar
bles and tops. There are usually
a few baseballs flying about the
campus too. The boys not play
ing catch have an added zest to
their games in lodging wild
throws.
The preliminary spelling con-
test was held before school this
morning.
The base ball team visited Tiff
ton yesterday for their opening
game. AS it was the opening
game our boys thought they
would open up and they did.
They were so wide open that
everything went through them.
They were defeated 10 to 0.
However there is a return game
secluded for the near future in
which they intend to close up
and shut Triton out without a
run.
The Essay contest was held
this morning. 1t is not known
who won the honors.
In the spelling contest the boys
beat the girls by an average of a
little less than one word a piece.
The contest did not prove to be
as close as it promised to be at
first as the boys missed about
fifty less than the girls. The
exact results were: the girls mis-
sed an average of 4 and 4.43
words around, while the bows
averaged 3 and 8.37 muffs per
each.
The lineup for this month is
the eighth versus the ninth grade.
The results so far are not known
but each side intends to make it
as tight as possible. The fruits
of victory are the same this
month as heretofore. S. F. G.
