R. GLENN, of Bibb. The South’s Opportunity. Tlie fact cannot be too often or too atrongly Impressed upon our farmer, that the present is, of all years, the year for planting large cereal and food crops. There are good business reasons why this is so, and it is greatly to the interests of every Southern planter that they give them care ful consideration. The war cloud that hovers, not alone over the United States and Spain, but over the < ntlre world makes it absolutely certain that there is going to be a greater demand for the cereals by the time the next crop is harvested, in fact from now on, than ever before—or, at least, than has been the case for many years. In the first place, the world's supply of food products is practically limited just now to the United States. It is generally admitted that Argentina and India and other agricultural countries have barely more than enough for home consumption. So that even to supply the natural demand it will require all that this country ordi narily produces. But there is already an abnormal de mand. Nearly every nation on earth is engaged in making preparations for pos sible or impending trouble. Even if there should be no outbreak of hostilities in any quarter the productive capacity of those nations has been ©onsideraibly dimin ished by a large draft of men for the army and their demand for food products con siderably increased in order to maintain these armies. But there is a stronger reason still why food products are going to be dear before the end of another year. War is almost certain. It seems now almost impossible to prevent a conflict between this country and Spain. It is even more impossible, it would set in. to prevent a conflict- between eonie or all of the nations on the other hemisphere. War, possibly the bitterest the world has ever seen, may mark the end of the present century. Any man with enough business instinct to make a success of farming should be able to understand that these things in sure him a market for his ceredls —and tend to close the market for his cotton. In oth< r words, food crops will rise in value while cotton will sell for less than the cost of production. Then* is every reason, therefore, to be lieve that the Southern farmer who has thcinos! food products and the least cotton <o sell next fall will make more clear money than his neighbor who failed to take advantage of present cinditions. Heretofore the Southern farmer ‘has de fended his all-co'tton theories by the cry of "no market" for his food products. *And, to ,t certain extent, he has been right. ‘Hut no such condition exists now or is likely to exist during the next year or'two. He has the world for a market for his food crops now and for sometime to come, and he neglects his own interests if he does not plant accordingly. According to the latest figures which ban be obtained, the number of pupils en rolled in the public schools of the United States amounts to 14,379,078, or nearly 20 per cent of the nation’s population. Out of 400,335 teachers employed, 130.309 are males .and 269,956 females. The average monthly salary paid to male teachers is $47.37; the average monthly salary paid to female teachers is $40.24. The number of public school houses in the United States is 240,968. and the value of all the public school property aggregates $455,948,164. The cost of public school education in the United States per pupil is $18.92 annually. These figures do not include the numerous private schools of the country. The World Arming. In .another editorial The News directs the attention of Southern -farmers to the fact that warlike preparations throughout the world make it absolutely certain that there will be an enormous demand for food products, and. therefore, advises Southern farmers to plant more largely of corn, ■wheat and other cereals than ever before. In this connection it is interesting to note what the -nations of the world are really doing in their preparations for war. An Associated Press dispatch published a few days ago, conveyed the information that the naval estimates submurted by the ‘Brit ish government to parliament for the year are the largest in the history of the coun try. being something like $118,000,000, and that the combined army and navy budget is no far below $250,000,000. Russia is making similar preparations, ns is shown tby rhe fact that the Czar has issued an imperial ukase, in which he ap propriates upward of $72,000,000 for addi tional battleships and naval armament. Both Germany and France are spending enormous sums in increasing their navies, and their standing armies, and both na tions seem to be impressed with the fact that they may be drawn into war almost at any time. Japan, Chili and Brazil are all adding to their naval strength. The Birmingham News, which calls at tention to the above facts, points out the causes for probable war among the differ ent nations. In the Western Hemisphere Spain and Cuba are fighting, and war is thr* at-ned 'betwee-n Spain and the United States. Such a conflict would most likely embroil the powers of Europe. 'ln Asia Japan and England on one side, appear to be arrayed against Germany’ Russia and France on the other, in the quarrel over the division of China. In Africa the French and English are on the verge of hostilities, the result of the land grabbing policy each is pursuing. A conflict between any of the great na tions of the world at this time threaten* to involve several, if not all of them. War either in America, Asia or Africa would draw one or more outside European coun tries into the conflict to some extent. Who can doubt, in the face of these facts, that the whole world may be a't war before the end of the century—and that food pro ducts will be worth more than anything else that our farmers can raise. John L Sullivan, being unable to get anyone else to fight him, is now- w-illing to content himself with Spain. How have the mighty fallen. It is Business News. Here Is some advice from Manly M. i Gillam, the nojed advertising expert who made Wanna maker famous as an adver tiser. This advice, which appears in the current issue of Printers Ink, is valuable to every live merchant, and should be read. Mr. Gillam says: ”A« to the medium or mediums I believe most emphatically in the daily newspaper. I believe the news of the store should be treated very much as if it were news of the world. "Every day and changed every day," is my motto for a department store adver tisement. I would as soon think of prtot j ing old news as old advertisements. The | statements touching a live, progressive, ; . up-to-the-minute store should be fresh and bright. They must be to fit the case.” I "There is help in booklets. There is ; help in circulars. There is good in street j car and poster work. I would use them all I with discrimination; btft my main re- I Hance w-ould always be in the daily news- I paper.” In another portion of his article on ad- ■ vert,sing he takes the position that women j ore the greatest readers of advertisements, and that their purchases are very largely controlled by the advertisements which they read. Mr. Gillam says: ihe first thing is to have something worthy to advertise; something that will a i tract customers and tend to lift the rank of the store in the minds of the people. I believe that the desired effect is most easily produced by every-day things. Now, there are many things in every stock that the average woman is familiar with. She is a keen judge of qualities. If articles of this kind are held up in the papers at unusual prices, every woman will be quick to comprehend the bargain side of it. If at the store sshe finds these things true to the telling She will be tempted to buy. And She will certainly think belter and better of 'the store that puts these tempt ing things in her way.” It being generally admitted that women are the ones who read advertisements, it follows that the afternoon paper is the best place to put those advertisements. For the simple reason that five women read the afternoon paper where, one reads a morning paper. They not only read it, but they read it carefully, leisurely, and if your advertisement is -there they will see It, read It, comprehend it and forth with plan the next day’s shopping—pro vided, of course, you have properly im pressed them with your advertisement. Mark Hanna, Andrew Carnegie and other Northern producers are forming a pig iron trust as a final resort in their efforts to overcome Southern compeition, notes the Birmingham News. What! Not Fools? The Manufacturer’s Record sharply crit icises those goldbugs who take the posi tion that those opposed to them are dis honest or idiotic, Says the Record: “To call a man an anarchist is not the best method of appealing to his reason. To treat-- a man as though he lacks common sense is not the best way to Impress him with your own virtue and intelligence. This attitude is generally an unconscious one, but it nevertheless merits correction.” . The Record is itself a single-standard organ, but it readily recognizes the as slninity of those who assume that a gold bug is more honest or more intelligent than anyone else. But why stop them? The effect of such utterances has simply been to open the eyes of the people. Fair-minded men have looked about them and have made com parisons. They have found ardent bi metallists whose honesty and intelligence would compare favorably with the honesty and intelligence of the most rampant gold bug in the country—even with Mark Hanna himself. And these comparisons have led think ing men to reflect that if the goldbugs are wrong in charging bi-metallists with dishonesty and idiocy, 'they might also be wrong in their idea as to the benefits of the single gold standard. Such reflections have pul people to studying the question. And whenever a man begins to study the financial problem, with a sincere desire to get -at the truth, it is only a question of time before he be comes convinced that the single standard makes money dear and everything else cheap—and that this is just what he doesn’t want. But let them alone; let them continue their abuse and the fools and knaves will soon settle this question for themselves. The Dalton Argus says: 'T'he Macon News is about right. The a nW-Candler forces are 'trying to whistle to keep up their courage, but a good -many of their lips are already failing to pucker. They can’it whistle much. If Atkinson don't come down for Berner, or Berner for At kinson. they will make another effort to stampede the Candler forces to some ‘good old Democrat’ (like Gordon, f’rinstanee’,) and call for a general Democratic love feast to unite all Democrats, and so forth and so on. Maybe both will come down and cease a useles fight. But one thing is certain, the people are going to stick to Candler. They’ll not be sidetracked this year.” His honor Judge John Wyckliff, chief justice of the supreme court of the Cher okee Nation, is languishing in jail at Vanita, I. T., on the charge of cattile stealing. It seems that somebody is clear ly guilty of contempt of court. The Athens Banner, in commending Senator Bacon’s position on free cotton bagging anti ties, says: “Senator Bacon is standing square up for the interests of the South and is making quite a reputation for himself.” 'Says ’the Carroll County Times: “The anti-Candler papers are resorting to sonic very despisable means to down the old warrior. The Atkinsonites fooled -the peo ple four years ago, but they can’t do it again.” Says the Sparta Ishmaelite: “Looking over 'the field, the Ishmaelite finds no rea son for changing its opinion that Candler will head the list in the convention by a majority over both his worty competitors." Over the State. Dublin Dispatch: Guess who the young man is that called on his thought-to-be best girl and asked her to perform on the paludian for him. Guess he had a nice time. Dublin Dispatch: On las-’t Monday some one entered Mr. Raymond Hughes’ dining room, ate a hearty meal and then went on his way rejoicing. Mr. and Mrs. Hughes being away from home, the visitor or visitors are supposed to have been tramps. Dublin Dispatch: We can't imagine why Mr. Arthur Graham goes to Sunday school in a double-seated buggy by- himself. Douglassville New South: One of our young men carried his best girl to ride last Sunday. Monroe Advertiser: We heard the school bell ring last Saturday night, and were told that a young blind man lectured there and gave some good music. Americus Times-Rceorder: Gene Crow der. a young moke wanted here, has been nabbed in Dawson. Crowder parted his wife’s hair with an axe handle among other little domestic pleasantries. Oglethorpe Echo: One of young men is seriously contemplating the purchase of a Ftetckage of Diamond Dye which will cost him just one dollar and a half.

I &akiHo POWDER Absolutely Pure ffiomir WILLJE THERE Important Convention to Be Held in Atlanta Next Week. Mi Os THE i® Will 8e the Subject Under Discus sion-Some Very Interesting Statistics Gathered. There will be an important conference in Atlanta on March 23, 24 and 25 in the in terest of the orphans’ homes of the south east. Many , delegates are expected to at tend and arrangements are being made to properly entertain the visitors make the conference a success in every way. Macon will, of course, be represented at this very interesting conference. The conference will be composed of the representatives of the several ohphans’ homes of the southeastern states and the work of caring for the orphans will be dis cussed. The methods and means«of the several homes will talked of, and steps taken to improve the work of these char itable institutions. The sessions of the convention will be held at Trinity church and in the orphans’ homes about Atlanta. The first session of the conference wilt be held Wednesday night, March 23d, and sessions will be held Thursday mornings, afternoon and night and Friday -morning. Questions of deep interest to the homes and and the public generally will be dis cussed, nad some valuable papers bearing on orphans’ home work will be read. The conference will 'be open and citizens inter ested in the work will be invited to at tend. Drs. Jacobs, Boyd, Boone and Mumford, Landrum and others will speak during the conference and many ladies will read pa pers on the work. In speaking of the coming conference and the work of the orphans’ homes in this section, a gentleman prominently con nected with "those institutions says: “The aproaching conference of the or phans’ homes to be held in Atlanta March 23, 24 and 25, for the southeastern states, will be an important gathering. There are very few that have the slightest idea of the magnitude, of this important work. In the twelve homes in Georgia alone there are at present nearly 1,000 orphans besides the many they have put into good homes. There are probably in the five states around Georgia 5,000 orphans and waifs and every home is crowded. There are over 100 begging admission into one of them now, not to speak of the many at the other doors. “The public needs to realize the great work 'being done. With the reports of many of these homes in my hand, I find that there is an almost universal require ment that they must be absolutely desti tute to get into one of these 'homes. Here, then, are 5,000 destitute ones that 'are be ing helped in a systematic, loving, careful way, and- trained to work ami become good citizens. ”- “The friends of humanity ought to stand by these noble institutions which are do ing so much for the community as well as for Christ. They ‘are doing in a systematic way what save sthe community tens of thousands of dollars. They are given good common school educations, trained to reli gion, loved into nobler lives and 'trained to work. The expense of a child in these homes varies from the Hebrew Home, which spends S2OO per year per capita and ■does magnificent 'work. Our Baptist home, $7 per month; Epworth orphanage, $5.85 per month; Connie Maxwell home, $5; Bethesda, SBO per year; ‘Methodist home, Macon, SIOO per year; Masonic home, $67.92 per year; Barium Springs, S7O per year; Baptist Home, Alabama, $6 per month; Baptist home, 'North Carolina, S6O per year; Presbyterian home, Alabama, sl»2 per year; Thorn well orphanage, S6O 'per year; Methodist home at Decatur, $4.50 per month. “You see the average expense is about $65 per year. The home at Decatur has the lowest record, because under the admirable management of Mr. and Mrs. S. iA. Taylor, they raise on the place not only their own vegetables,, grains, fruits, milk, but ter, beef, poultry and pork, but are sell ing some butter and are planning to raise and sell many things. They hope soon to put in an industrial school or workshop. Every child is taught to make as much of his living as possible, and with 100 or phans they can do a great deal.” ■■ Swift’s Specific i is a vegetable remedy that drives the ; destroying demons cf disease out of the ■ blood.

During their stay here the Orioles will be quartered at the Brown House. Manager Hanlon has read some of the players who have been kicking about com ing South without pay, a lecture and tells thew that they do not appreciate the good treatment that he gives them. It is not known what the team will de cide when they find that the pest house has been located at Central City park, al though it is some distance 'from the ball grounds. Usually the players use’the race track for training purposes, and run atouu-d it five or six times every day. Os course this will be stopped this season, and there are many who believe that as soon as the team finds that the pest house has been built at the Central City park they will pull up and leave Macon for seme place where threre has been no smallpox this year.
