Best Source of Cotton Seed
H. c. S., McDonough, Ga,
writes: We would like your
opinion in regard to Pedigreed
Salisbury cotton seed, and what
YOU think of it as a. variety to
grow under boil weevil condi-
tions?
Salisbury cotton, as we understand
it, has been selected and developed
in the Delta lands of the Mississippi
valley. 1t is said to be an extra
early, heavy fruiting strain OF Wan:
namaker Cleveland. Cotton seed
brought from so distant location,
and grown under the peculiar SOIL
and climatic conditions prevailing
in the Mississippi bottoms would al
most certainly require two or three
years in which to satisfactorily &C.
climatic itself in Georgia. AS you
doubtless know, our Investigations
indicate that acceptable strains OF
Cleveland and College No. l, pro-
duced here under Georgia conditions
are likely to prove the most desira-
BILE strains for cultivation in our
state under existing conditions. IN
der the circumstances, it seems co
us a rational procedure therefore,
to procure seed of these strains from
nearby locations so far as this may
he practicable.

THE COUNTRY HOME
BY MRS, w. H. FELTON,

in which L have lived for seventy
years, was known as the Cherokee
section. There was a big Cherokee
county, which has been sub divided
into various counties, until there is
only now a medium sized Cherokee
county, adjoining both Cobb and
Barlow counties on the map. There
were a great many Indian graves in
this part of the county when l be-
came a citizen in Cass county in
1853. They used flints to tip their
arrows and we could pick up an
Indian flint quite frequently around
our dwelling place. There were &C.
casional intermarriages between
the whites and the Cherokees in
pioneer days. There were some with
mixed blood-negroes and Indians
mot many, perhaps.
There is still standing Chief Ross
home in the little town of Rossville,
near Chattanooga, Tenn, and the
finest spring-yOu can imagine
where a small creek seems to dash
out from under a great big cliff. In
touring Georgia, as so many are do
ing now with automobiles, this ceun-
try, known as the happy hunting
grounds of the Cherokee Indians, is
we'll worth visiting.
Now I'll conclude with the letter
mentioned in the beginning of this
article:
Cedar Bluff, Ala, Jan. 30, 1922.
Dear Mrs. Felton, have just read
from the last edition of The Atlanta
Tri-Weekly Journal the letter to you
from Mrs. C. w. Brown, of Pryor,
Okla. Well do 1 remember the rem
iniscences of my mother and grand
mother Harper of the Cherokee In
dams of Vann's Valley, near Cave
Spring. 1t seems the Harpers were
fond of the Vanns, and they visited
would spend the day'-and the
Vanns owned Creek Indians as
slaves. etc. Never did my mother
forget Mrs. Vanns' big bureau draw
err full of beads that she allowed my
mother to play with all day. l have
given much study to our southern
Indians and I know the Cherokees
led in civilization, but for bold war
riors and lovely queens the Musco-
gees have a tale beyond compare.
And I wonder much that the south
is so ignorant of most of it all.
Dear Mrs. FELTON,, we women of
the south are all so proud of you
and wish you every blessing.
Yours Most Truly.

Think Hot Box Caused
Biz Fire at Sawmill

WAYCROSS, Ga, Feb. 10.-That
a hotbox in one of the engines was
the cause of the disastrous fire at
the sawmill plant of the Twin Tree
Lumber company, of Hopkins, Ca,
which resulted in a 100000 loss
Wednesday morning, is the opinion
of Manager r. P. Richardson. Mr..
Richardson stated that the intense
heat ighited certain inflammable
materials in the vicinity and start
ed the fire.
The fire was discovered at 8
o'clock in the morning, about two
hours after the mill had begun OPP
erations for the day. In spite of all
that could be done with chemical
extinguishers and other fire-fight-
ing apparatus with which the plant
is equipped. the flames gained much
Roadway that the building was a
total loss.
Fairly well covered by insurance,
the plant will be rebuilt within two
or three months, it was announced.
The capacity of the mill is $4,000
feet of lumber day, and even the
temporary check given it by the fire
is regarded as a big loss to this Sec
ton.

CONCERNING THE CHEROKEES
ONCE MORE

A letter received this week tells
our readers more about the Cherokee
Indians. Because our state his
torians have collected so little data
concerning these former owners or
aborigines, l am glad to copy it at
this time. In the year 1888, the
Georgia Indians were being moved
west towards what was then called
Indian Territory-now known as
Oklahoma.
[ was three years old in 1888. We
lived in the country about seven
teen miles below Atlanta. [ have
indistinct recollection of seeing a
party of red Indians going along
in the timbered lands-back of the
main road. They seemed to be going
somewhere and their stay was short
with us. They had blankets around
their bodies and moccasins on their
feet-nothing on their heads as a
covering. We had no dealings with
them and / have always supposed
they were on their way to some ap-
pointed place to join the main
parties moving to the west.
They were not hostile in appear
ance, but l was impressed that they
were sulky and dissatisfied.
Away back in the 70s / frequently
saw the Indians who came from the
western states to see the president
in Washington city. There was
an old hotel down on Pennsylvania
avenue which seemed to be a favor
lite stopping place for such unusual
people.
These western Indians wore their
regalia. I presume that word will
fit the gaudy apparel which they
sported around the hotel and they
were often seen, in groups on an
upstairs piazza of the hotel overlook
ing the avenue. During my last
hurried trip to Washington in No
vember l passed this old hotel and
the memory of those highly deco
rated Indian chiefs came back to
my mind. They called the president
1.-THE White Father" - sometimes
1.-THE Great Father" Later on the
massacre of General Clusters com
mand made the hostile Indians very
unwelcome, and it looked for a
time. as if the entire red race was
to be beyonetted from the American
continent. The Cherokees were more
like the white people in their ways
and doings than the others.

the barn he ran around the corner
of it, then along the side OF the
barn and finally right out into the
barnyard. Farmer Brown and Farm
err Browns Boy We're both at work
in the barnyard. Reddy sped right
past them and over into the Old
Orchard There he sat down to see
what would happen.
Both Farmer Brown and Farmer
Browns Boy exclaimed right out
when they saw Reddy. BoWser the
Hound was in the house, and for this
Reddy was thankful. He knew that
neither Farmer Brown nor Farm =
Brown't Bow could hurt him if they
wanted to, for they had no terrible
gun. He doubted if they wanted to
hurt him, for he had COM to look
on Farmer Browns Boy as friend.
So at safe distance in the Old Or
chard he sat and grinned while he
waited for Old Man Coyote to show
himself.
But Old Man Coyote didn't show
himself. He stopped back of the
barn. He heard the voices Of Farm
er Brown and Farmer Browns
Boy. He had no desire to be seen.
Turning, he swiftly trotted back the
way he had come. From where he
sat in the. Old Orchard Reddy Fox
saw him trotting back toward the
Green Forest. Then Reddy chuckled
Yes, indeed, Reddy chuckled. He
was still chuckling when he finally
trotted off in another direction. He
had been too clever for Old Man
Coyote.

knew that Old Man Coyote could

that to get rid of Old Man Coyote he

go wherever 1 can. If he really

I can fool him in some way. I've

aside before he got very near Farmer

1922 Exports Show
Decrease; Total for
Year $3.831,932,l93

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10.-The to-
tai value of American merchandise
exports during 1922 was 1881 ,s32,-
1913, compared to s4,45, O31, 1856 in 1921.
Although a complete analysis of
merchandise exports during the year
is not available, the annual total as
made public today by the commerce
department indicated that a falling
off in trade with Canada and European
countries, together with a smaller
falling eff in trade with South Amer
lea, was the cause of the decrease.
The notable decreases were in ex-
ports to the United Kingdom, Ger
many and Italy. Large decreases
are also shown in exports to Mexico,
Argentina and Japan.

Laredo soy bean. [ want bean
for hay that is marketable and

raise some seed for market.
Where can 1 secure some pure
bred Rhode Island Red eggs and
baby chicks? Also what variety
OF paper shell pecans would you
advise for a ten acre tract. Is
it necessary to plant more than
one variety?
The Laredo soy bean possesses a
good deal of merit. The beans them
selves are small in size, and it takes
several hundred thousand OF them to
make one bushel. A bushel of them,
if properly planted, is enough to
to seed eight to ten acres where the
rows are made three and one-haf 10
four feet apart. This bean has GER
tain distinctive features which are
worthy of note.
1t is an upright growing type, and
does not stwine or fall down like
some other varieties, such as the
O.too.tan. It grows to height OF
about five feet, and, therefore, IS
easy to harvest and handle. 1t is a
very early strain, 1t can be soWn
therefore after grain crops. In a
five.year test here at the college, II
has made an average yield OF about
twenty-five bushels of grain. 1t IS
valuable for the making of hay, ana
also for the production of grain. II
can be harvested by machinery
which makes it comparatively easy
to handle. The hay is valuable De-
cause of the fine.stemed nature OF
the growth made by this crop. 1t
is a crop worth testing out careful
w therefore in your community.
Hay, which has been made from the
Laredo soy bean and properly curea,
should sell to advantages. You snoulo
be able to secure reliable SEED OF
this variety from the parties lnoi-
Gated.
You can secure Rhode Island
chicks, eggs and such Information
as YOU desire concerning them from
the Poultry Plant of this 1nstltu-
ton. ,s
There is no reason why you shoulo
not pIant one riety of pecans IN
your particularly ction of the state.
It is probably BEST to plant two or
three varieties 'on an area OF the
size you have in mind. Strains wen
