excessive; only a small percentage,
is very desirable fruit. bcrubby
immature apples ai'e coming upon a
, dull, weak market. Fancy apples
well packed, command top prices,
which show no decline, compared
with the opening of the season.
"Not much more than a small me
dium crop of apples is to be expected
We have not had much sunshine this
summer, consequently the quality
will not be very good and the fn-.it
will be small. Of American apples
we are told that the crop is somewhat
short, and though quality is not good,
everybody seems to want high prices,
so we think that there will be not
Uiueh chance to do any important
bzusiness in American apples here.
Fruit of first class quality certainly
will fetch high prices here. Pros
pects for medium quality are bad.
Business in box apples is increasing.
It is of no use to pack apples of in
ferior quality in boxes." (Letter to

GEORGIA JUDGE'S BABY BORN
WITH A GREAT RECORD
Well Known Hotel Keeper Uses and
Recommends Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Diar
rhoea Remedy.
ATLANTA, On., Oct. 4. For the
thirteenth time Judge K. B. Russell
of the court of appeals of Georgia,
and one of the strongest men politi
cally in Georgia, is a father.
The Inst arrival, according to in
formation received in Atlanta from
the home of the judge in Winder, is
a strapping fina boy.
Although scarcely 24 hours old, he
is far more than the usual everyday
baby boy. lie is a baby boy with a
proud record behind him, for he is the
thirteenth child of a thirteenth child
on his mother's side, and the seventh
son of a seventh son on the side of
his father.
Judge Russell and Mrs. Russell and
their numerous friends are now puz
zling over a suitable name for the
youngsters. It is agreed by all that a
toy with such a distinguished record
must have a name to match.
BEGGARS ARE TO BE
SHUT OUT OF PARIS
PARIS, October 5. Americans
visiting Paris who have pestered in
the beautiful Champs Elysees by the
army of professional beggars that
infest the place will rejoice to hear
that a serious attempt is being made
to get rid of them. AH the hotel pro
prietors and fashionable residents in
the avenue have drawn up a petition
to Prefect of Police Lepine, com-
complaining of the nuisance.
This beggarly host is thoronghlv
organized, the members relieving each
other at intervals, and includes lin
guistic mendicants who can tell a pit
iful talein any language.

troubles for which it is recommended,

Acreage
Property
At A Bargain
We have three acres, just out
side the city limits, platted all
around it, with a new five-room
house, which we consider a bar
gain at
$2200
The property faces on two
streets and would subdivide nicely.
There is an electric motor and
pump which goes with the place,
and the well would supply water
for irrigating.
The owner has made the price
low in order to sell quickly, and
the property will be on the mar
ket but a short time at this price.
