PEANUTS FLOOD
CAMILLA MARKETS

CAMILLA, Ca, Oct 24.-As the
great cotton crop for 1925 makes
the sign of being about in, other
crops take its place. All day long
Thursday trucks and wagons of Span
ish peanuts waited in line to be un-
loaded into local warehouses. The
fair weather has fastened the pick
ing and the selling season is nov at
its height. Last week truck load af-
ter truck load remained in line with
no prospect of being reached. All
spare shelters and warehouse space
was being obtained for trucks and
wagons to remain over night. The
congestion has been so great that it
has been impossible to begin to care
for the crop in the local warehouses,
and cars are lined up and loaded
from wagons for shipment to Vir-
ginia and other points, where the
crop ha sheen short. The grades are
good because of favorable seasons
and the price has ranged from
$3.50 to 500. Peanuts from Col
quqitt, .rady, Decatur. Baker and
Mitchell counties are being handled
here.

The dove season is open in this

This is also the federal open season.
1t is said that delicious bird is
plentiful and thi sis probably due to-
the fine way in which Georgia sports
men are assisting in seeing that the
laws are observed.
'Possum season is also open now.
1t begins on October l and continues
to February l, but all hunters are re
quired to have license.
1t is a violation of the law to buy
in open season or out, quail, doves,
snipe, woodcock, curlews, wild tur-
key, marshhen deer squirrels or sum-
mer duck.
There is a provision regulating the
killing of deer which requires hunt
ers to report killing to the county

could go before Congress itself,

Before a committee, he is a wit
