AGED WOMAN KNITS
WHILE FLOOD LAPS
STEPS ON HER HOME
Swollen 0CmuIgeer 'YaIIer"
as the Tiber in Its MuddieSt
Days. Proves Big SightSee-
ing Place for Soldiers
By WARD GREENE.
Journal STAFF Correspondent.

CAMP HARRIS, Macon. Ga, July u.
The most interesting thing the Georgia
soldiers have yet seen in Macon Is the
ocmulgee river. Hundreds of them went
into town from Camp Harris yesterday
and the day before TO look at it--a
swollen. yellow flood that has spread
through city streets and houses. forcing
inhabitants TO higher ground and robbing
them Of their goods and chattels, what
ever chattels may be.
The river started rising last week.
Charged with the outpourings Of It's
tributaries and day after day of steady
rain, IL broke loose on the east bank
and for a distance of seven hundred feet
swamped the lowlands. Today IL has
gone down considerably, but for while
IL drew hundreds to the bridge and the
banks, so that policemen were put on
duty to keep back the crowds.
Standing on the bridge over the oc-
mulgee. a short distance from the South
ern depot, you look to the east across
a smear of water. The Tiber in Its yell
lowest days was never as yellow as the
Ocmulgee It is so yellow that ''yaller"
Is the only word to describe II. The
tops OF trees, the tops of picket fences
and the tops of houses lift above IL Ike
drowning men. Windows peer at you
like open mouths choking with water.
Sign boards strive to proclaim the mer-
it's Of somebody's flour, but the name is
hidden by water.
Out in the middle OF the flood Is the
top of a house. It was on a corner, Cor
the name Of the street stands out from
the caves, Water Street" 1t was well
named. An old woman sits on the porch
She is placidly knitting, while the water
gurgles around the steps. A boat slides
around the house, the man puts down his
paddle and bitches a line to the porch
post. He Shoes away a brood OF chick
ems pottering about on the wet piazza,
peeping in puzzled excitement and step
ping gingerly across the water-soaked
boards.
People line the bridge, people line the
banks They watch the old woman knit
and they watch the yellow river. But
there is no excitement, for they know
there Is no danger.
Amt that where we useter live,
rnama?' cries a towsled-headed young
ster, pointing a dirty finger at the top
Of a house.
The crowd laughs. Yes, that's your
home, honey" says the woman, and she,
too. smiles; for though the ocmulgee has
overflowed it's banks and made a swim
ming pool out OF her parlor, the Ocniul-
gee has done IL in a gentle, quiet way
and showsw the river will not be stay
long visitor.

RECENT HEAVY RAIN CUT
PEACH CROP 10 PER CENT
Means Shortage of 200 Cars
in Annual Shipments to
Distant Points

Reports reaching the Georgia fruit
exchange from the middle and south
Georgia fruit belts, indicate that there
will be a reduction of ten per cent in
the peach crop as result of the recent
five days continuous rain.
This means the crop will be cut down
by about 200 cars. principally Of FL
bertas and Georgia Bellies, as there
were approximately 1000 more cars of
these to be shipped. Thus the five days
rain means a loss to the Georgia peach
growers of an aggregate of about $780,
900 to $4,000.
Shipping of fruit went right ahead in
spite of the rains, and 1t went forward
In good condition. This is attributed
70 spraying against the fungus disease
brown rot. This disease is more likely
TO develop in wet than in dry weather
but the thorough spraying Of the fruit
this year kept the disease down, and
also made it possible to ship it In good
condition.

SUNSHINE AND NEW
UNIFORMS ENLIVEN
BOYS OF THE FIFTH
ICIear Weather Speeds Up
Business of Quitting Bri-
gade for Border-SeCond Is
Ready to Leave
By WARD GREENE
journal Stan Correspondent.

CAMP HARRIS. Macon, Ga. July II.
Camp Harris today has a morning OF
sunshine The moisture is rapidly be-
ing soaked up from the ground and be-
fore night, if the clear weather keeps
up, the camp should be as hot and dry
as il was the day the soldier boys ar
rived
The welcome change is speeding up
tho business of Quitting the brigade
for the border, considerably delayed by
the rain. The Second infantry is ready
to leave. but no orders have been re-
ceived and conservative camp gossips
say it will be next week before they
entrain. The field hospital corps expects
to get away about the same time, the
Fifth regiment soon after.
Members Of the Fifth today are getting
their second incubation against typhoid.
The rejected men of the regiment were
re-eXamined yesterday. Fifty per cent
of those disqualified on the first test
passed the second, making only between
fifty and sixty men who are finally dis
qualified and will receive their dis
charges in a few days.
Despite the weeks rain there were
only twenty-six cases in the camp in
Urinary today, one of which was serious,
pneumonia patient. The others suf-
fered mainly from slight attacks of
bronchitis and the anti-typhoid serum.
Captain w. c. Miles, camp surgeon.
says the health of the camp in the face
OF weather hardship is remarkable.
The second squad of cavalry is get
ting its ordnance equipments today, ri
hes, saddles and the like. Its muster
rolls are up and the squadron will be
mustered in a few days.
The Fifth will be mustered as soon
as the weather is good enough to give
one clear day to the process. The regi-
ment Is getting it's clothing today, so
it will be in brand-new uniform for the
muster,
