THE MONROE ML. ADVERTISER. GEORGE A. KING & CO. ] VOL. XX. Sat Monroe Advertiser. FORSYTH, TUESDAY, OCT. 5, Wts The Way to Select Seeil Wheat. One of the most satisfactory ways of obtain ing chaice seed wheat is to select the cleanest and lest spot in your wheat field, where the grain grows most perfectly and is most mature. Then harvest and thresh these portions sepa rately, with the gteatest care, and save the seed for sowing. Procure this course for a number of years, and you will procure what will seem to be anew variety of wheat; but it will only be the same, developed and perfected in a higher degree. The operation for securing good seed will pay in every department of farming and gardening. When selecting seed always choose a variety that has succeeded well in soil and clima'.e sim ilar to your own. Intelligent neighbors, who have raised good wheat can help much in this matter. It is not well to try new’ experiments on a large scale, unless one is prepared to risk considerable loss. Accept only that seed which is perfectly ripe and plump. Let no man im pose on you by saying smaller kernals will pro duce a greater number of plants from a bushel of seed. What is wanted is a strong, vigorous growth of wheat plants. This you cannot ef fect from half grown or shriveled seed. Never sow any but the cleanest seed. You can tel! by examining it what its condition is. If the seed is good in other respects, but is foul, clean it yourself. Put be sure to have it clean at all events. Reject seed that has been kept damp or has been heated- beed that suffered either or both of these injuries may germinate, but it has lost a part of its vitality and should never be used for seed if better could be secured. Do not sow mixed seed on the same ground. Let the seed of one sowing in the same field be all of one kind alone. You will thus know what kinds you are growiug and be able to compare results, with an approach toward accuracy. If possible, never sow seed which is more than one year, or at most, two years old. Old seed may germinate and may not. Prudence will suggest that seed should be used before it has been exposed to decay’, to insects, to damp ness or to other injurious agencies. Experi ence has taught that some of these are likely to injure the kernel if it is kept after the first year. The farmer who will select and prepare his seed wheat according the above suggestions will greatly increase the chances in favor of having a fine crop next year. The I mi* of Lime us a Fertilizer. The season is approaching for the prepara tion of the soil for next year’s seed. This, and the selection of the kinds best adapted, are of sufficient importance to occupy the mind of the fanner, and to a greater extent than is occas ionally given, when it is considered that infe rior or unadapted seed will produce, as a rule, an inferior crop. Thus to sow wheat on a soil that contains no lime or marl—either naturally or artificially—is sure to bring a poor return. A remarkable instance of this took place in Ire land just after the famine. It is a fact well known by the more intelligent farmers in that country that the extensive central plain which occupies the surface laud at the foot of the mountains contains no lime or marl, and that dressings with these materials were at stated times applied when the culture of wheat was intended. The product from an average year was twenty barrels per acre, (Irish) or about 60 bushels to the English acre. After the famine the poverty and want of hearts to do their best by the land compelled those who remained on their farms, unsubdued bv the famine and pes tilence, to omit the usual application of lime to the soil, and the consequence was that, in stead of twenty barrels per Irish acre, theyield was from five to seven barrels, being a reduc tion of from two-thirds to three.fourths. Another instance occurred in the case of three farmers from Suffolk, who took a tract of land, about six hundred acres, near Sligo, en closed with a wall as a park In a letter from one of them after they had been there a few years, he stated that they were about to aban don their barlings, as the land would not grow wheat for want of lime, of which there was none to be obtained in the neighborhood,while the soil contained not a panicle of that mate rial, and there was none within reasonable reach of their farms. In such cases as this the application of lime is required to be renewed frequently, because either lime or marl will sink in almost any soil, especially light, so that the arocess of renewing the application of these materials is very expensive. There is, however, a drawback to this favor able account of the effects of the application of lime to the soil, namely ; that it is possible to overtime; that it produces larger crops for a certain number of years, after which the return falls away until it becomes less than before the lime was applied, so that it appeal's to have ex hausted instead of enriched the soil. In ac counting for this adverse effect of what is ad mitted on all hands to be a benefit, the chem ists state that lime acts on all the organic parts of the soil, by which It is rendered more ser viceable to the growth of plants. On the oth er hand the proportion of organic matter in the soil gradually diminishes under the pro longed action of the lime, and thus the soil be comes less rich in those substances ol organic origin on which its fertility to a certain extent depends. The same effect is produced on the mineral matter in the soil, when there is ab stracted from it a more abundant supply in proportion with its immediate effects per se Unless, therefore, an adequate proportion of those matters are supplied in other manures, the soil will necessarily become exhausted to such an extent as to counteract or neutralize the action of the lime. The way, therefore, to counteract this effect, is to manure largely with farm-yard manure and saline substances, and thus return or repay to the soil whatever may have been extracted too speedily or too copi ously from it. —Mark Law Erprcst. The intelligent jurv has at last attracted the attention of the magazines, Scribner's says: *• The simple truth is, that the jury system is ou*iived and ought to be outlawed. It does not help the cause of law and justice, and ought to be kicked out of the way. It is oppressive to the juror, it is anomalous to our system of government, it makes tlie uncertainty of law still more uncertain, it is expensive, aud it is unnecessary, There is nothing sacred aboutit. To be tried by a man's peers is not half so good a thing as to be tried by a man's intellec tual and moral superiors.” SWAM HEW IXDI4XOLI. A Wicture of Ftcr Desolation and Misery almost Fnparalelled— .Ninety Bodies Recovered from the Wreck. The steamship Harlan from Indianola, via Galveston, arrived at Brashear on Wednesday at noon. Some of her passengers from Galves ton telegraphed their friends in this city con firming the report of the almost entire destruc tion of Indianola by tbe Gulf cyclone. The train bearing a number of the passen gers brought to Brashear by tbe steamship Har lan arrived in the city last evening. Included in the number were several gentle men, the Messrs Buckles and Mr. O’Kelly of Galveston, who came direct from Indianola, where they’ were during the cyclone. They fully coroborate the report published on las! Wednesday morning as to the immense loss of life an! property, and state that the scene when they left there on Monday afternoon was ter rible to behold. The storm began on Wednesday evening and increased in violence until Thursday morning, when the gale burst upon the town with all its fury, tbe water in the bay rising rapidly but did not create any general feeling of alarm un til late Thursday morning, when it began to swell rapidly, rising over six feet in two hours and rapidly neared the flood-mark of 1807,and yet the horror stricken people almost paralysed with fear did not seem to realize their danger, none of them making efforts t© escape. In fact they hardly could have done so as tbe wind was blowing a hurricane. An hour later tbe water rose above the flood mark, and at four o’clock that afternoon the wind was driving it through the streets at the rate of twelve to fifteen miles an hour, the ve locity’ of the wind, at the same time, being 88 miles an hour, so measured by the observer at the hour named- It was then that the citizens of this place saw that there w-as no means of escape, for back of the city- was a large open plain cov ered with water for three or four miles, and to to the depth of from four to eight feet, and huge breakers washing from the bay inland as far as the eye could see. At night the water in tbe city- bad risen to a depth of seven feet, the citizens in the mean time having taken refuge in the second stories of their dwellings, there to remain anxiously awaiting the dawn of day. The gale, said our-informant, seemed to in crease during the night, the barometer at one time falling to 28:94, and on tbe following morning a scene presented itsef that beggars description. In every direction could be seen houses, some crushed entirely-, while others bad been carried by the wind and waves blocks away; others, too, were moved across the street and lay careened and half full of sand, their occupants cither having been drowned in their dwellings or had sought safety in the waves, and seized shutters, doors or pieces of furniture, and w-ere carried by the heavy seas against the houses, in which way many were killed, wVilq others again, corn and bruised, were carried out of tbe city- into tbe plain only to be drowned. But five or six buildings of any description was left uninjured, and not until Friday’ morn ing did tbe wind change and the water begin to recede, and on Saturday it had returned to its old level. All day Friday, or from the time it was safe, to venture out, men could be seen with rafts visiting, when it could be found, the remains of their houses, in search of their wives and children, who had been either drowned or crushed by the houses falling upon them ; and later in the day, when the water had sufficient ly receded to permit it, a general relief com mittee and patrol was formed of those who had escaped. Their work began by searching for bodies in he debris of the fallen buildings, and in this work the}* met the most horrible sights. In several instances entire families w.re found covered up in the ruins, father, mother and lit tle ones lying huddled together in what was once the upper stories of their buildings, where they doubtless sought safety, and in one ,or two instances, husband and wife were found clasp in each other’s arms where death sought them, and together they were hurried into eternity almost without a moment’s warning. The search continued, bodies being found buried in the sand, some entirely nude, and so bruised aud mangled by being thrust against the buildings that they could not be recognized when, providing rudely constructed coffins,the only ones that could be obtained, they were hastily buried. Up to Monday evening ninety bodies had been recovered, some of them being found four miles from the city, where they had been car ried, and among them men, women and child ren who, but a few hours previous, were pur suing their usual avocations. Then it was, too, that the .vork of pillage and robbery began—the miscreants who, while clad in the garb of men, robbing tlie bodies found in the city, until detected and driven out of the place. The marauning Mexicans, too, took part in the system of robbery—a small band of thiev ing scoundrels searching the plain, back of the city, for the bodies of those carried out, and in numerous instances mutilating the bodies In a shocking manner, to obtain trinkets or jewelry, some of them cutting off fingers to obtain rings, while others more greedy, would, with their knives, chop off the entire hand and carry it with them until a convenient opportunity of fered to secure the jewelry. This was carried on for several hours before it was known in the city, and when the infor mation of the bloodthirsty conduct was receiv ed, a patrol of citizens were sent out, who on their return, reported that five of the thieving scoundrels had been caught in the act of rob bing dead bodies, and had been summarily dealt with. When the Harlan left Indianola, our infor mants state, there was but little food, consist ing of salt meat and crackers, in the city, and this was distributed, the meat being cooked in the open air. A small supply of provisions had, however, been received from Victoria, but not enough to last them more than two davs. Everything was lost, even by those who sur vived the gale, consequently clothing as well as provisions will be needed. On Sunday sixty bodies were buried at Indianola, few if any of whom were recognized or identified. Port Lavaeca suffered from the gale, only S persons being left out of 25, and at a small set tlement known as St Louis, the entire popula* FORSYTH, GEORGIA, TUESDAY MORNING OCTOBER 5. 1875. tion, numbering, perhaps, fifty lives, were lost, another settlement known as Oldtown, being' washed away also. The loss to stock was terrible, over 2,500 sheep belonging to one man being drowned, while the carcasses of horses, mules and cattle could be 9een everywhere. Including the settlements named, our infor mants think the loss of life could not have been less than three hnndred, and are of the opinion that other settlements were carried away, as the water, when at its height, covered ten miles of country back of the city; the waves wash ing, as was the case at Galveston, a channel through from the bay to a small lake a mile west of the city. A Monster Farm. —The Sudivan farm, in Floyd county, Illinois, about one hundred miles from Chicago, is now in possession of Hon. Hiram Sibley, of Rochester, and is the largest farm in the country, <J not in the world. Of these 40,000 acres 10,000 acres are planted in corn, 5,000 in oats, flax and other crops, and all the rest being in grass, say 17,000. There are 200 acres in hedge. The farm has land equal to 64 miles in length, by- one in w idth. The land is divided into 8 sections, and covers 8 square miles with boulevards running along each two miles, so that there is but one mile of roadway- to the boulevard. The railroad passes through 14 miles of the laud. There are now 23,000 acres in crops, and the rest of the land, except 60 acres in groves, is all in timothy-. To take the corn from the cribs to the curs requires 113 wagons. There are coal lands near at band, and the coal costs but $3 a ton. Tbe working stock consists of 474 mules. Each of the eight grand divisions is divided into eight subordinate divisions, so that the men and beasts are all fed within one mile of each oth er, and no one has to go over one mile from the field to find food ®r rest. There is a large central office where reports are sent daily of all the work done. Each of the corn cribs bolds 6,000 bushels; 1,000 bushels of com are shelled each hour and put in cars ready for movement. The corn sheller necessary for the work, cost $20,000, and is not worked by-steam. The work is all done by mules, and 12,000 bushels of corn are shelled each day. A returned Enoch Arden was tearing around and railing at a Christian community that would allow a woman to starve nearly to death in the absence of her husband. The truth is, he left her in thejlays of hoop-skirts looking like this O, and on his return, found her pinned back and looking like this I. The impression that she had starved w-as natural. A Suffering Capitalist.—“ Y T es, these are awfully hard times,” said a broker as he stood in the door talking to a friend last evening. “ Why.” said the broker, “ I’ve been invest ing and investing for a year back—a pile of money I assure you—and I find I’ve been los ing like fury.” “Indeed r “ True’s as I’m living, if I’ve lost a cent, I’ve lost more than three hundred thousand dol lars.” “ No ?” ” Certain,” continued tbe broker, and what cramps me most and makes me feel worst is, that fully one hundred and fifty dollars of it was my-jown money.” Then the friends retired to a secluded place and “ smiled.” Common Sense vs. Prejudice. By R. V. Pierce, M. D., of the Worlds Dispen sary, Buffalo, N. Y., Author of “ The people’s Common Sense Medical Adviser,” etc., etc., I am aware that there is a popular, and not altogether unfounded, prejudice against “ pat ent medicines,” owing to the small amount of merit which many of them possess. The ap pellation of “ Patent Medicine,” does not apply to my remedies, as no patent has ever been asked for or obtained upon them, nor have they been urged upon the public as “ cure-alls.” They are simply some favorite prescriptions, which, in a very extensive practice, have proved their superior remedial virtues in the cure of the dis eases for which they are recommended. Ev ery practicing physician has his favorite reme dies, which he oftenest recommends or uses, be cause he has the greatest confidence in their virtues. The patient does not know their com position. Even prescriptions are usually writ ten in a language unintelligible to any but the druggist. As much secrecy is employed as in the preparation of proprietary medicines. Does the fact that an article is prepared by a process known only to the manufacturer render that article less valuable? How many physi cians know the elementary composition of the remedies which they employ, some of which have never been analyzed ? Few practition ers know* how Morphine, Quinine, Podophyl lin, Leptandrin, Pepsin, or Chloroform, are made, or how r nauseous drags are transformed into palpatable elixirs; yet they do not hesitate to employ them. Is it not inconsistent to use a prescription, the composition of which is un known to us and discard another preparation simply because it is accompanied by a printed statement of its properties with directions for its use ? Some persons, w*hile admitting that my med icines are good pharmaceutical compounds, ob ject to them on the ground that they are too often used with insufficient judgement. I pro pose to obviate this difficulty by enlightening the people as to the structure and funetons of their bodies, the causes, character, and symp toms, of disease, and by indicating the proper and judicious employment of my medicines, together with such auxilliary treatment as may be necessary. Such is one of the designs of the People’s Medical Adviser, forty thousand co pies of which have already been published, and are sold at the exceedingly low price of |l-50, and sent (post-paid) to any address within the United States and Canada. If you would patronize medicines, scientifi cally prepared, use my Family Medicines.

These standard remedies have been before the public for many years—a period long enough to fully test their merits, and the best argument that can be advanced in their favor is the fact that their sale was never so great as during die past six months. . “In G-od we Trust.” new advertisements.
