chickens for 40 cents pound, and
she figured a good profit.
Chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys
and guineas will all be sough in
the Selma poultry market, and
farmers will find it to their advan-

Better Than Cotton.
1t is said that 500 can be made
on chickens easier than it can be
made on a bale of cotton, and for
this reason landowners are urged
to encourage their tenants to raise
poultry as a side line, to bring in
ready money through the year In
the case of several negroes over
the county who raise turkeys good
money returns have been reported,
without interfering with their crop
activities.
Skinned milk makes excellent
chicken feed, it is stated, and far
mers engaged in the dairy bust
ness or creamery can turn their
SKINNED milk to good advantage
by fattening poultry for the mar

PEAR CROP IN THOMAS
is COMPLETE FAILURE

BROWNSVILLE, Aug. 8.-The
pear crop this year has been prac-
tically a failure in Thomas county
this season and many trees have no
fruit on them at all. One car com
posed of LeConte and Keiffers was
made up here and shipped North,
the shippers expecting to get a fine
price for them. The market had
dropped before the car reached its
destination, however, and there was
no demand for the pears. Those
are probably the only ones that
will be sent from here this year.

SELMA, Ala, Aug. 8.-PIans
for making Selma a poultry mar

farmers and small landowners am
nually are going forward under
full steam, although the date for
the first poultry sale to be held
here early in September has not
yet been set. Prior to that time
member of the poultry commit
tee from the Chamber of Com
merse will visit Ashburn, Ga,
where a thriving poultry market has
been built up and will study the
methods employed there, in order
to inaugurate the same plan here.
Tt is said that Turner county peo-
pie engage in an extensive poultry
business, which they find highly
profitable, the value of their poul-
try, sold in Ashburn, exceeding
that of other crops. Shipments of
poultry are made in carload lots
every week and from data already
in the hands of the Chamber of
Commerce, it is known that bank
ers and business men in that sec
tion say the poultry market has
enabled the farmer in many in
stances to get on a cash basis.
Construct Pens.
Pens are to be constructed and
a regular poultry market will be
established by a Wholesale grocery
dealer here, who will buy all poul-
try at few cents a pound under
the New York market prices. In
