AGRICULTURE IN GEORGIA.
Wor 7hn Kverf Before. Mara
Indaatrlal Coinmllon Wltneaa.
Mr, James Barrett of Augusta, Gal,
testifiod before tba industrlul commis
sion the other day concerning tbe con
ditions in Georgia. He said that agri
cultural conditions in the south are
now worse than they have ever beep,
There is a natural increase of agri
cultural laborers in tbe south, but there
is no Immigration there. Immigration
is prevented by the low rate of wages
paid. Negro labor Is very generally
confined to the farm, and in the south
there is a disposition to exclude negroes
from the mechanical pursuits. These
laborers, hired by tba month, are paid
$0 a month and bona and "keep."
When cotton picking time comes, be is
paid from 80 to 40 cents a hundred for
cotton picked, and the negro will pick
from 100 to 185 pounds a day. Labor
at $3 a month will allow the raising of
cotton at 4 cents a pound, which is
now the price In the market, but labor
at $0 a month will riot: permit the in
dostry except at a lose. The country
stores charge the credit customers a
profit of 60 or 100 per cent on what
they sell, credit usually being for not
more than four months. The poor cot
ton raiser baa to pay 8 per cent on
money bo borrows and promisee to
send bis ten bales of cotton to the lend
er to be sold and to pay a commimion
of $1.00, If be is prevented from rais
ing ten bales, b baa to pay the com
mittNlon anyway.
The great trouble id the south, he
said, was from tbe fact that the na
tional bunk act prevented those banks
lending money on real estate rectirlty.
This "outlawing of the land as a ae
curlty" be believed to be tbe reason
why money cannot bo got cheaply In
the eontb. ,
"The national bank law," he said,
"has done mora to injure . the agricul
turists in tbe south than any legislation
enacted by the government." ,
Nine-tenths of the cotton crop is
mortgaged before it is picked, and that
fact makes it necessary to sell tbe cot
ton when picked, and that deprosses !
price,
Tbo cotton mills of Georgia ara be
ing operated almost exclusively, b)
southern people. Tbe operative are
native whites, and even tbe superin
tendents, who went south when tbe
mills were established, are being dis
placed by southerners. Tbe witness said
railroad rates are high la Georgia.
Agricultural conditions In Georgia
would be improved if tbe national
bank law wonld allow real estate se
curity for loans by such banks and also
through tho government ownership of
railroads.
Tbe witness bad diversified bis cr-cv
Formerly he raised 200 bales of cotton ;
ttow he raises but 10 or 13 bales, tbe
balance of tbe land be cultivates being
In truck gardening, but be baa made
no money by it At ona time all about
bis section of the atate watermelons
were raised. Now practically no wa
termelons are planted, for tbe reason
that high railroad rate prevent tbwm
from getting tba crop to tba northern
markets. , -.. -
They have bat two banks la bis
county, and they charge 10 per cent
for a, loan of three months. That
amounts to 40 per cent, and' before
they bad two banks they paid about 50
per cent annum. .

general repairs, and a meeting was be

funds for that purpose, The minister
having said , that 1500 would be re
quired, a very wealthy and equally
stingy membsr of the congregation
arose and said he would give L Just
as he eat down, however, a lump of
plaster fell from tbe ceiling and hit
him on the head, whereupon he rose
up hastily and called out that he had
made a mistake; he would give l&o.
Tbls was too much for an enthusiast
present, who, ' forgetful of everything,
called 'out fervently: "Ob, Lord, bit

Tbo autumi duy was cloning in a

rays of trie sotting sua entered the

iig across the row of shining milk-

Well ploauod, the young man went
on his way,
I ho cause of Mrs. Newton lisllko
to i'ecile was a trivial ono. When
she was a little child Cucilo's father
bad given her the doad of a pictur
esque bit of land, ctlM tbo west
pasture, which lay ltf eon the New
ton farm and that of Mr, (irey. Two
years before our story opeus, Airs,
Newton had made CclU an offer for
the laud; it would Just complete her
east pasture, she said, and lilt in the
corner, thus making hor acres form
almost a square, Sim hud set her
heart on having the nurture, but
Cecilo loved the pluco and wold not
soli it Mrs. Newton trlnd by coax
ing and llbctral olTors to gain her
point, but tho girl' was doturmlned.
At WiHt. flying Into h pitMslon, the
elder lady iatd the youngor soundly
for "a conceited minx who thought
homWi too. good for hor pluco, and
who would novor get hor Jack, for
whin she bad net hor cap." And
bavlur thus luileved bcr mind she
went homo. ,
i'os two years she bad not entered
tho froy farmhouse unls she know
tho only daughter was atwint (Jood,
mothorly Mrs, iiy overlooked the

ever bo called, paid llttlo noijfhborly

the pluco the starry ono ehe had
guzod at earlier in tbe night. Tbe
win 1 bad . rltiea and blew In fitful
gusts around the corners of the house.
A troubled Vhought of the pleasure
she bad anticipated tsamo to Cocllo,
and than all at once, as a stronger
gust of wind camo to her, she smellod
a faint pdor of musk. Looking
quickly at the barn and other build
ings, she could ; nothing unusual.
She raised hor eyes and looked anx
iously in the direction ; of Jatik'l
bouse. What w s that red glow
spreading above ti4 treetopsP she
wondered; a' 1 then she realised that
the Newton farmhouse was on fire.
fiunnlng downstairs she roused ber
father; then out of the door and away
through the darkness slid sped in the
direction of tbe burning building.
All was quiet when she reached
tbe gate, wbluh wa locked. What
should she doP Wie looked up at
tho high pickets with their cruelly
sharp points, and then began to
climb resolutely up; balancing 'her
self on tho top, she dropped to the
ground, ' Her skirts caught on , the
bar,; points, but she managed to
wrench thorn free, and never noticing
how ber hands were bleeding, made
her way to the bouse, i , -F
The flames shot upward; the smoke
rolled in huge columns toward the
darkening sky, but still no sound
came from tbe inmates ot the burn
ing building Could she save tbemP
Would ber father never come?
Looking snxlously around she saw
an open window; she sprang through
it, and found that she was in tho
thickest of the smoke. What she did
must lw done quickly, &he snatched
a woolen scarf she bad thrown over
ber hood, and, binding it around her
rnoiuii, prepared to light hor way to
the foot of tho stairs, Inch by Inch
she pressed forward, till, blinded by
tbe suioke.she struck ber foot against
the lowest stop. With a little scream
of joy she How up the stairs and
along tbe wide ball to Jack's room.
Jack was Just awaking from
troubled sleep, Hearing ( 'o lie's
yoice hi Instantly sprang up, com
prehending the dangor almost before
she could tell him of It.
"Mother sleep downstairs In the
little room on the right,'! bo said in
answer to ber question. "Walt,
Coolie!" ,
He frantically searched for bis
clothing but Ceeile was away again,
battling with the smoke, which al
most overpowered ber. Tho flames
were licking their way toward Mrs.
Newton's room. Ceoile saw tbls and
breathed a prayer for help. She
fairly flew down the stairs and
readied the door Just as one cruel
tongue of fire darted across the top
of it.
She found Mrs, Newton in a heavy
stupor, and all ber efforts to rouse
ber were In vain, Hho could not
wait for Jack, so she wrapped the
heavy form ia a blanket, and bow,
she knew not, managed to drag ber
Into the hftlL There Jack joined ber.
Ho promptly relieved her of ber bur
den, and in an instant bad led the
way to safety.
Mr. Urey and his men, having but
Just reached the scone, were prepar
ing to fight the Are, and after taking
in this fact, Coolie's courage and
strength gave way, and she slipped
down at Jack's foot.
Mrs, (Irey now camo hurrying up,
and together nho and Jack half
dragged, half carried tho two bolp-
loss ones to hor homo. A doctor was
sent for, and the simple application
of restorative arounod Mrs. JSewton,
who llntonod with tear to tho story
of Coclle' heroism. Turning to Jack

Jack's face brightened, but ho con
tinued his retlos walk before tbe
door of tho room whore Cocllo lay.
Jiibt as the morning dawnod ihn
opened hor eye and asked: "Is Jack
safe''" Then she fell asleep with a
happy smile on ber lips, 8ho bud
burned her band and arm; hor
beautiful hair wa lngd badly, and
ber strength had been terribly taxed;
but In a month she had recovered
sadlvlautly to take a short drive, and
Jack took ber to e the ruin.
