The Soutnern Farmers* It is gratifying to note that in the midst of the stringency prevailing throughout this country the Georgia farmers boast that as a class they aro better off than they have been for years. At the meeting of the Georgia Agricultural Society a few dnys ago this is what the vice president, Mr. Barry, said, declaring that the farm ers of Georgia have had of late more home raised bread and meat, fewer debts nnd fairer averago crops than ever beforo. Mr. Harry's remarks were greeted with wild applause, showing that his views were accepted by those present, and the other speak ers echoed his sentiments. The Augusta Chronicle agrees thor oughly with him that the farmers of Central Georgia are in excellent con dition. The warning they received as to raising too much cotton has had its effect, and thoyu-e growing more food crops, and are, therefore, more inde pendent. The lesson of economy, moreover, taught them in the last fow years has not been without its effect. They have been more caroful and more saving. They cultivate better and more thoroughly, and, conse quently, secure a larger yield per I acre. What is true of Central Georgia is ' relatively true of a large portion of ! the South just now. Thera is. of course, a financial stringency every where, but the Southern farmers are in as good a condition to weather the storm as any class in the country.— Times-Demoerat. No Right to Laugh.
