Locates in Macon.
i
Mr. Kiiior: Since our la^t 1
communication, we have heard
a great runny had reporca on Hie
cotton crop and there is no getting
around the fact that there I
has been considerable deterioration
within the past several
days. Whether or not this deterioration
has been general over
the entire cotton belt wo don't
know. The excessive rains, followed
by extremely hot weather,
have certainly done considerable
damage in some places.
The peach season is rapidly
coining t ? a close in Georgia. Lots
of fine peaches have found lluir
way to the not horn markets this
season- The peach industry is
growing rapidly in this state and
many thousand trees are being
planted every year. It is a business
which seems to have a great
? deal of fascination about it, accor
ding to the testimony of some of
the peach growers, with whom \
we have talked about it, in addi- .
tion to the handsome nrotits
whaeh they reap from the sales.
In a few days more, the primary
election will have taken
place ; will have become a thing of
the past and not a few candidates
will never exactly understand
"how it happened" that they 1
failed to win. Hut they don't all
win and the "faithful few" who
do come out victorious should
leel doubly thankful?first lie- ?
cause it is till over with and sc- (
cond because they won, in such i
a hot, vigorous campaign. This s
is especially true in the guber
. . t.
natonai race.
Wo think there if little iloubt
as to the result of the race for 1
governor. There are live eandi- '
dates, it is true, but the race is
really and truly between Chirk
Howell and lloke Smith. 'Ihe
race has been exceedingly warm
ami lor continual mud slinging,
which has la-ted tor months,
has probably never belore been
equaled in Georgia. There aie ,
three main Tacts, however, which
in our opinion have won votes lor
lloke Smith and which will make!
him the next governor ot Georgia.
They are. first, the Tact that lloke
Smith is in favor of negro dis
tranchisement; second, his sun I
!?
erior ability over Clark Howell,
and third, llie fact that the re-L
port lias been circulated that Mr.
Howell \v?h dominated, by the
railroads and other corpor-,
ations. We are inclined to In*,
lieve the report and Itilly believe
that on 'lie da\ follow-ingthe
election, the news will he llashe.d
over the sta'e that lie has been
badly de.eatod and that llokei
Smith, whom the people believe]
to be the champion oi their i
rights, has be< n vietoiions.
Several days ago, Mr. llarbeit
Jforton, ol Heath Springs, came i
over to Ceorgia, stopped a fewdays
in Macon, and decided to!
locate here, lie secured a nice
position in the office* of one of
tlie lnrge?t rail r->a1? lending oi'
from Macon, and bis prospects
for future advancement are very
good. And so auother Carolinian
has been added to t he list of
those already located here.

HABIT!
|
Habit rules one's life. Don't allow yourself to get *
into bad habits. People who have used good Flour all
their lives can't quit, and if they happen to get bad flour
they are always in a hurry to get rid of it. When you
want to feel that life is a pleasure and worth living,
don't forget to use the best?
It's purity convinces the most skeptical. When you eat
it an easy and pleasant feeling passes over you like one
in love chilled with happiness. If bread is the staff of
life, why not eat good bread when it lies in quantities
right at your door. If you want the very whitest flour j
we can supply you. We have flour that is whiter than
the whitest in Lancaster, but reason tells us that no ? ^
power cAn ge greater than the source from which it
came. When you take your wheat to mill do you want V ~
your flour chalked or bleached by electricity? If you
do, this will do for fancy or for pride in hearing some
one hrag on how white your biscuits were at dinner.
How about your health ? Don't overlook this. Life is
sweet, and when millionaires are groaning from aches !
and pains from adulterated food you can be wishing for
the time to come when you can square yourself at the
table and be satisfied to sit and eat all the Magnolia
biscuits that your appetite calls for and fear no harm.
Cleanliness, purity and quality. Your trade invited with
the assurance that it will be appreciated and the goods
