cline in our great staple—cotton. I
Unusually large shipments of provis- 1 91 ra "
ions to the various European ports
are already reported, and must con
tinue so long as the war lasts.
Tlie foreign demand for cotton may
be greatly reduced, and its price fall
below even its present low figures.
In view of these facts, the fitrmers
of Georgia are urged to increase their
areas in provision crops. It is not
yet too late to increase the area in
corn, even if it lias to be done by re
ducing the area in cotton. Let farm-
j there is usually' a sufficient growth of
indeed, in some seasons a
very heavy growth, but, the yield in
grain does not always correspond.
This seems to show a deficiency’ in
the soil of the elements necessary to
form the grain, and that special fertil
izers arc needed. Tlie progressive
farmer will endeavor to ascertain
what these are, and whether it wi 1
pay to employ them.
The foregoii’g statement seems to
point unmistakably to two definite
conclusions, without a proper ob»

Ay; but wait, good wife, a minute;
1 have first a word to say ;
Do vou know what day to-day ist
Mother, ’tia our Wedding-day !
Just as now, wc sut at sap) cr
When the gnests had gom away;
You sat that side, I sat this side,
Forty year* ago to-day!
Then what plans we laid together;
W hat brave things I meant to do!
Could wc dream to-day wonlJ find us
At this table—me and you.
Better so, no doubt—and yet 1
Sometimes tliiuk—I cannot tell—
H <t our boy—ah, yes! 1 know, dear;
Yea, He doetli all things well.
Well we’ve had onr joys and sorrows,
Shared our ainiles os well as tears;
A ul—tiie best of all—I’ve had your
Faithful love for forty years 1
Poor we’ve been, but not forsaken ;
Grief we’ve known, but uever shame—
Father for Thy endless mercies
Still we bless Tuy Holy Nnrne
