DAILY ENQUIRER -BUT: - COLUMBUS -GEORGIA, > (SATURDAY MORNING, JUNE 1% '\m. THE Gt ANO QI EWTION, «.*. K. W.” knnvrn the Propounded 1 hjr “GlftBO,” »nd Indnlgew In * F#w Qa^tlons j IIIimIM* «!▼** Hl» Own Experience and I Testimony of Other*. Correspondence Enquirer-Sun. i Nance’s District, June IB.—I see in the issue of the daily of June 15th that "Guano” wants me \ to be more explicit and answer a few of his ques* j tions, which I frankly propose to do. I then | want “Guano” just as frankly to answer my j questions. Now, Mr. Guano, we do not want | any dodging. In 1884 I used the Home Mixture as sold by I Col. II. Bussey and the Plow Brand, sold by the [ Hunt Bros., ior which I paid 450 pounds mid dling cotton each on time. Last year I used only | the Home Mixture as sold by Col. H. Bussey, for j which I paid $37.50 cash. This year I am using ■ the Gossypium guano sold by Tom Hunt, and am 1 to pay 375 pounds middling cotton in ten ton lots: on less than ten ton lots it comes higher. 1 j could have bought the Home Mixture this year j fur $91 dollars cash from Mr. Wm. Hedd. Now, with my experience, I consider the Home Mixture as sold by Colonel Bussey and the Gos sypium as sold by Tom Hunt as two excellent guanos, and I cannot see any difference on the ! crops where the two guanos are used side by side. I Some of my neighbors are trying experiments with the two guanos, and cannot see any differ- | dice. To be brief, I purchased all the ingre dients mentioned in the formula from, or by an order from, Mr. William Redd to Blanchard A- Burras, for which I paid William Redd twenty- one dollars cash. The phosphate was branded Pacific. Now as to your second question about the brand of kainit, that question is rather hard to answer, as kainit is German salt, and German salt is kainit—a cheap potash. As you are a guano dealer, and of course have plenty of money, suppose you go over to Germany and find out as to their different brands, as I learn there is but one shipped to this country. The experiment that I am making is on a crop of cotton. Now, Mr. Guano, we have given you cash and credit prices that we paid, and, as you say you are a dealer in guano, please do as we have, give us your formula. .If you cannot do that give us the cost of the ingredients, what they cost to lay them down in Columbus before being mixed, as that is the point we are driving at, and is the rea son the first article was written. We planters want to find out if we cannot do our own mix ing and save the cost of building large factories and buying costly machinery and paying large dividends, and officers’ salaries, Ac. As to we farmers writing on the important subject of farming, can the dealers know more of guano than the man that buys it, puts it in the ground, watches it all through crop time and gathers the crop and knows the exnct results of his year’s operations? The dealer is in some city and knows nothing of farming and is only thinking of selling his guano for next year’s crops. They all want to sell, and all say they have the best; that is just what we farmers want to know, which is the best, for the farmer’s success is the success of all others, and nobody denies that guano dealing is just as repu table as any other honest business. As to thou sands of dollars being invested in the business of making guanos the planters have their tens of thousands invested in farming and have lost tens of thousands on the product of some of those reputable dealers. Now, to close the article, I win give you a good joke (although a true one) of one of my friend’s experiments with guano. He got all the kinds he could hear of, and was very particular to mark the rows of each kind, and that he might not be mistaken, put it down in a book. One row he -did not put any guano on, and marked that row with an old iron hinge- drove it down in the row. Afterwards he examined all the rows and could not see any difference. He had a very cute negro hoy by the name of Joe. He sent Joe into the patch to see if he could point out the best rows. In a few minutes Joe came running in and says: •“Boss, dat guano is all doin’ mighty well, but de row wid de old iron hinge is de best of all.” Now for a few references and the testimony. Mr. M. M. Bowden is using the formula alone, having given up the higher priced guanos. Mr. T. C. Rees says he used the formular with as good practical results. Mr. O. H. Miller is using phos phate alone by the side of gossypium and the home mixture, and used the same amount of • each kind, two good fertilizers, with just as good results. The phosphate cost 275 pounds of cotton and the guano 375 and 425 pounds of middling cotton. Mr. Brit David is using phosphate, hav ing given up higher priced guanos. Also Mr. Tom Lambeit. 1 used 150 pounds of each kind per acre. Your questions are all answered, Mr. Guano. Now, please answer mine. N. E. M. RAHIMS COUNTY. Congressional Relegates to Have a Fair Chance in the Primary—News Nojes ami Gossip From Hie County. Correspondence Enquirer-Bun. Hamilton, Ga., June 18.—The executive com mittee met here yesterday for the purpose of de termining when and how to select delegates to represent Harris county in the congressional con vention, which convenes in LaGrange, July 2Cth next. They determined to vote directly for the candidate for congress on June 26th inst., and the executive committee, together with the friends of the candidate getting the highest vote, to select the delegates on the first Tuesday in July next. This gives each candidate an opportunity to try his strength with the people andean hurt no one. it is generally conceded that Grimes will easily carry Harris county. We are informed that Col. Harris’ friends are taking some interest in his welfare by canvassing a portion of this county in his interest for con gress. One of Georgia’s senators seems to have time enough to take a hand, by writing, against the knight of the Chattahoochee for congress. The campaign for gubernatoriar honors seems to wax warmer in proportion to the limited time for canvassing before the vote in the pri mary. Legislative timber is being felled and put in shape to be used in the coming race. As yet only two pieces have been brought out for in spection. A timely rain fell here yesterday morning, suffi cient to keep the crops growing. Harris is destined to be an important county this year in the election ring. One can scarcely tell a joke without sticking some of these borers of the people a stunner. A PLK.l FOR TIJ K CO>V. Reasons Why the t’ily Council Should Not Pass an Ordinance Prohibiting Them From the Streets. Exquirer-Sun : A lady has requested me to write something about cows. I presume she is a friend to them and wants me to defend them Rgainst those people who arc making so much fuss about nothing. I have none and may, there fore, be considered an impartial judge. Now J think tc pass an ordinance compelling people to keep up their cows would just now especially be a great injustice to many and iqcon- venience for all. Very few have any place to keep them, and those who have not would, of course, have to give them up. No large cities permit stabling without some restrictions as to the locality where they may be built. It is plain that it would be a great injury to me for my neighbor who happens to have a cow to build a stable a few yards away from my window, from which would come, no matter how careftd he might be, swarms of flies and an odor that would make summer nights intolerable. Some of you who .would con vert Columbus Into a cowpen, re member that by so doing you endanger the lives of your children, or If you have none, those of your neighbors and friends. Cow stables would be in the event of an epidemic a means of spreading it* a#d although t^e board^pf health might order thBm removed the germs of disease would remain for weeks, even months after wards. It is now conceded that thick growths of weeds and grass of any considerable extent cause sick ness and without, our appreciating the fact the cows are rendering us a v aluablu service In keep ing our commons and streets clean, thus saving the city a very considerable expense. The area of Columbus is. small, ard since wi have no control over our suburban villages it by no means follows that we can keep our streets clear of them. We will have no end of trouble impounding cows from without our limits and much bad feeling will be the result. What harm do they? One correspondent complains his flowers being damaged; the same thin g may have happened if he had lived in the country. One cannot expect cows to have intelligence enough to keep out of an open gate with tempting grass or shrubbery just within Another complains that they trouble the farm er’s wagons. A farmer who is so careless a. 1 to come to a place the size of Columbus and leave his wagon unprotected, ought to lose his hay, fodder and everything else. Then, farmers are uccustomed to cows and their depredations, and when one pillages a wagon I presume he feels repaid in the use of a few big "d's” and quickly forgets the matter. There arc in Columbus about 1000 cows. At an average of three gallons of milk each, would give three thousand gallons per day, which at the present price would amount to $1200 per day or nearly $450,000 per annum. And a large propor tion of it is used by nersons who have no place to keep a cow and who need the milk—some of them could not live without it, and could not uf- ford to buy it. The more 1 look into the propo sition the more amazingly selfish it lookR. Here are gentlemen surrounded with every thing that the market affords trying to rob a lot of poor people of the only luxury they have, and for the purpose of farther filling their already cor pulent wallets by creating a demand for dairy farms in which they are interested. Oh! you need not start and throw up your hands! I can put my hands on people who are agitating this thing, and every time it dies out they touch it up again. What will become of the cows? Some to the butcher, some to the country, but a majority of them to the dairy fanner at half price. If this ordinance must pass I propose some amendments, viz: First—I propose we put up chickens; they are a great enemy to flowers. Second—I propose we put up rats; they frighten ladies and invade farm wagons. Third—1 propose that we keep the cats up. 'Their open air concerts at 2 a. m. are a great nuisance. Fourth—Dogs, the snarling, barking cur that roams the streets at night should be killed, and a tax of one dollar on every one kept for sporting purposes. Lacto Cephalous.

Mr. Clarence Terry, one of the oldest tin date of service) and most valued clerks of the Travel ers, and for many years the clerical head of the claim department of the Travelers Insurance company, died of consumption May 18, in Colum bus, Ga., at the home of his brother, aged forty- five, having vainly sought renewal of health in Colorado and Florida for a year past. He had some of the best of old Hartford blood in his veins. Jeremiah Wadsworth, the famous revolu tionary financier, was his grand-uncle, ®and on both sides his family ties were excellent. The late Commander Edward Terry, of the navy, was his brother; Major-General Alfred H. Terry is his cousin. He served through the war in the Bev- enteenth United .States infantry. He entered the service of this company nearly twenty years ago, after some experience of banking, and has remained with it since. Personally, he was of quick and keen, intelligence, a lover both of books, music and sport; an excellent husband and father, and an honorable, loyal and lovable man. He leaves a wife, daughter and son.— Travelers Record. Alabama Crops. The farmers of Randolph county have I harvested their wheat crop. The clover | crop has been damaged greatly by rains. Other crops are doing well. Peaches are I beginning to ripen. j Crop prospects in and around Selma are ! not in any wise flattering, owing to much ! rain, and the want of the ability of the farmers to keep up with farm work. In | many places it looks almost hopeless, yet i we still are not discouraged, but hope for | an abundant harvest in tne fall time. I The Blountsville News says the oat crop i throughout the county is looking remarka- I bly well, and it promises an abundant ! yield. Dr. Lewis Whaley had his wheat , I cradled last week, and the yield is very : promising. Thecradlers say that twelve | bundles will yield a bushel of grain. The apple crop is very promising, and if noth ing mars present prospects, there will be a I very abundant yield or that excellent fruit. I As a sequence the supply of apple brandy I will be larger than it usually happens to be. There is a great deal of complaint among the farmers about grassy crops ! around Montgomery. The recent rains have thrown everybody behind, and day hands arc now getting seventy-five cents a i day to chop cotton. The oat crop is good, 1 but there will be scarcely any wheat made. , It rains there every day. Marks A Gayle and J. C. Graham A Co., | of Montgomery, report cotton blossoms, but rainy weather during the last fort night has played sad havoc with cotton, j The crops arc in the grass. ! A storm of wind prevailed in Eufaula i from 2 o’clock this afternoon until after 1 night, blowing dovvn fences, topping trees, ! etc. The damage to the growing crop ; must be considerable. The mercury went away down. A Working Mini's Complaint. There are about one million laboring men organized in unions in this country.

A Bill Filed Asking for* Rereiver for the Com ply* Constitution. On Wednesday a m >st important and in teresting litigation wan begun in the supe rior court of Bibb county. A number of policy holders in the Cottoi States Life Insurance company, tin behah of themselves and all others in interest who might come in and join with them whether policy holders or creditors, filed a bill against that company and its president and creditors, alleging that the company hud withdrawn its agencies, ceased to ibsik policies and failed to make returns to tiu governor or comptroller-general, or U take out a license, thereby retiring fron. business; that its presidents and director: were attempting to get the comptroller S eneral to deliver to them the state bomb eposited with him as a security for policy holders, and to put in their place curtail railroad debentures of much less value and of a class not complying with the re quirements of the law, thus lessening tin- guaranty fund, and decreasing the security of policy holders that the company or those ii charge of it were depreciating the value o. out stand n ; policies aid buying them ii for a trifle, and were conducting the aflaiiv of the company in a manner not author ized by law or by the charter. It was charged that the rights of those who licit i policies, or had any interest in the com I puny, were being jeopardized, and a re I ceiver was pravea. The object of the bill is to wind up the affairs of the company under the direction of a court of equity, so as to protect all parties in interest. The attorneys filing the bill are Messrs. Harrison A Peeples and J. H. Lumpkin, o! Atlanta, and GustinA Hall, of Macon. Tiu company has not yet filed an answer, am. it is not known who will represent them. The case has been set for a preliminary hearing on Saturday, June 24th. It wili be a case of unusual interest, involving u large amount of money and assets, and tht rights of a large number of people. Grailnatinsr Kxerrl*P8 at West Point. The graduation exercises were held at West Point Saturday. Brigadier-General Gibbons made the principal address. He referred to his classmates as he knew them at West Point and again in after life. Said he : “Fancy, if you can, the scene it a sorcerer had suddenly appeared and an nounced his intention of disturbing before hand the prizes of the future to then cadets. Fancy him placing his hand on the shoul der of Fitz-John Porter and saying: 'You will be the great military martyr of your age. After rising to the highest rank in the army by distinguished gallantry, you will be stricken down by a heartless calumny, dismissed in disgrace from the service, and made to suffer years of agony and shame. But don’t hang your head, sir; remember that truth is mighty and will prevail; that you live in a free, just country, and when the light of truth shall illuminate the page of history and show the true character of your actions and the vile means used to destroy you. your countrymen will do you justice. Ana remember above all things that one who is acquitted by the deliberate judg ment of a Grant, a Schofield, a Terry and a Getty can well afford to stand up against the charges of any accuser.’ One cannot but be struck with the way in which the dice-box of fate has deniea all prognos tications formed here. The humblest member of the class need never despair. This institution does not make generals, it simply implants the ABC. Longstreet was third from the foot of his class, Eus- tis, Newton, Raines and Roseerans were at the head. Grant wa) N^/U among 39 mem bers.” It was a question witn General Gibbons if t ie standard of the academy was not too high. He advised graduates to obey orders and not be political parti sans. “Remember,” he said, “that nq one ever gained anything without hard work. When you find others you deemed less worthy grasping the prize you were contending for, console yourself with this aphorism, that ‘sage never grows on bar ren soil.’ Above all, never tarnish your military reputation by practicing the arts of the politician.” Secretary Endicott spoke a few words of congratulation to the cadets and the officers of the institution, and then handed diplomas to the grad uates. No sooner had the battalion broken ranks than the graduates hastened to their rooms and took off* their uniforms, but not before some of them were caught and put under the pump.
