"Messrs. A. A. Seymour of Bowman, and his brother J. O. Seymour of Tignall, returned last week from the iron and coal districts of Alabama. They saw the effects of the boll weevil in the farming sections lower down the state, where the farmers in a large measure had been forced to divert their attention to other crops than cotton. Their trip was one of pleasure and sight-seeing and they returned to this section of Georgia better pleased than ever with the land of their nativity. And they always have been might well pleased."
