lieves II Is a good thing to harp on,
The business Of pecan growing in
North Carolina has not yet passed
what might be termed the ornamental
stage, but in Georgia and Alabama II
has become a commercialized indus
try. The Savannah News tells Of a
shipment Of paper r-shell pecans from
Albany-a whole carload-that Is ex-
pected to return $4,000 to the grow
er. Speaking for the state Of Georgia,
the News says that although the in
dustry Of pecan growing is compare
lively recent there, it has been highly
successful with every reason to be-
lieve that pecan culture will be more
and more taken up as q money making
venture and for home consumption.
The nut Is highly nutritious and un-
equaled In flavor by any Of the i'm
ported nuts. A very fine variety Is now
to be found on the local markets at
three pounds for 81, with practically
no waste to the pound, and the extra
large, thin-shelled nuts from Bryan
county and elsewhere nearby some
times bring so cents q pound. These
Georgia grown paper-shells have put
the old-time imported pecans, which
are very small and difficult to shell,
almost out Of the market, although
they still form a part Of what are
known as mixed nuts"

men, women and children are tired
We think Of Washington, the Vir-
ginian, as renowned for his adven-
turous youth as for the sustained Wig

that Patrick Henrys fiery eloquence

dashing cavalry exploits in the Revolu-
ton, won the name Of Light Horse

calls IAN irregular, harassing ware

uity Of plans, pertinacity Of purpose

pected, either before or during his
eight years in the presidency, Of be-

than to any other cause, to Jackson's

"Davey" Crockett, the tireless ex-

pirates, were southerners.

Civil war-lands devastated, houses
destroyed or dilapidated, farms gone to

stored them killed or crippled-and
out of the desolation, somehow, the
men Of the south have built up wealth
and prosperity again.
One is indeed ignorant who sup
poses that southerners are not active

SIZE OF THE CROP.
Senator McLaurin Discusses the Last
Ginners Report.

SlnneTS ncport.
Hon. John l.. McLaurin, state ware
house commissioner, has given out an
interview in which he discusses the
last ginner's report, as follows:
The estimate by the census depart
ment of about eight and three-quar-
ter million bales of cotton ginned to
November 14th, does not indicate, in
my opinion, a crop of more than H.
100000 bales. The percentage Of the
cotton ginned cannot be compared
with any year since 1910 for several
reasons: This was an early crop, and
the price of cotton and seed was high
and the country, after the low prices
Of 1914, exceedingly short Of money;
the acreage was reduced, as well as
the use of fertilizer, and everybody
pushed the harvesting of the crop to
the uttermost in order to sell their
seed while they were green and heavy
and also to take advantage Of 12-cent
