FORSYTH, MONIUIE COUNTY, GEORGIA, TUESDAY MORNING MARCHSf 1887
A WORD TO FARMERS.
After commenting on the bill of
Mr. Brady, of Sumter, allowing pur
chasers to plead failure of considera
tion on guano, the Rome Bulletin
says:
“We here leave the subject and
shall make a few remarks to the far
mers. In the first place wo proceed
to call you dnpes. Do not feel hard
—we will make you admit it. Let
reason and common sense have a
chance. Do you think it. poss ble to
prosper, buying your provisions,
jour clothes; paying for all the pro
visions consumed and all the clothes
worn in the towns and cities—in
fact, buy, or agree to pay for, ev
erything on the face of the earth,
and do all this on time, paying
thieving rates of interest and per
centages mid raise nothing but cot
ton, and get and 8 cents per
pound ? Now answer this question.
You have thrown the spinning
wheel, the reel, the loom, the knit
ting needles and the churn ir.vay.
on have pulled down the garden
fence for firewood, and turned the
flower yard into a horse pen. You
cannot run a straight furrow unless
it is with a patent plow. You can
not hoe any unless it is with a pat
ent gooseneck hoe with a turned
handle. You cannot make a back
band nor a pair of hames. You
can L make a singletree. Patent,
store-bought everything.! The cus
tom mill has fallen to decay, the
country blacksmith has starved to
death, the village shoemaker has
moved away, and the tailor looks
like the last rose ot summer.
This picture is not overdrawn by
any means. You say that new
things, new inventions, buy cheaper
than you can make them, lose
time to make them. This is
not true, it may appear so,
but tiie principle is wrong.
L e ask you, which is the cheaper,
to pay Pennsylvania fifty cents for
a hoe nr an ax helve, or to pay your
country carpenter seventy-five cents?
Do you think of these tilings ? Penn
sylvania never buys anything from
the south unless she can return it to
us at a double price. These are
facts. It is better to pay one dollar
for home manufacture than to buy
foreign et fifty cents. You cannot
make compost heaps. You cannot
plant anything unless it is accompa
nied with guano and a mortgage
note‘on the crop regardless of the
fam r!y su pp<>ft. You cm n tT< >t plow a
crop of any kind unless there bo r
commercial fertiliser made by some
goggle-eyed professor who never
farmed a day in his life. You can
not commence a crop unless you
have first planted a mortgage with
the merchant on your horse, your
cow, your crop, your wife and chil
dren and expectancy in the future.
Is this right? Are you doing
justice by the family? Is your ex
ample a good one to learn posterity?
Farming can be carried on at a
profit, and the farmer live at home,
but buying guano will have to cease.
Mortgages will have to cease. Man
ures and fertilizers will have to be
made at home, as other countries do,
the living must be made at home.
W e must produce all home consump
tion on the farm. Un’ess you do
this you cannot make a success of
farming. This is a true living tact.
The twenty years experience is
enough to learn any people, and we
claim to be &s intelligent as any on
earth. VVe say farm fewer acres
and make them rich with home
made fertilizers. Bring back the
fat horses, sleek cows and the proud
rooster. This can only be secured
by making home consumption on
the farm.
An Aq;ed Pedestrian.
Next, to a walking match is Mr.
E. E. Saulter's walking fifteen miles
in one day, Ashing and hunting.
He lives at Athens, Ga., is 75 years
old, has had a running ulcer on his
leg §0 years—one-halt a century—
snd previous to that day had not
walked over half a mile tier day + or
30 years. Mr. Saulter, the Banner-
Watchman and Rev. Dr. Calvin
Johnson say that B. B. B. cured the
ulcer-and restored him.

Take Care the Tools.

importance than good tools an* im

Protection in the South.
Savannah Morning News.
The protection journals at the
north continue to insist that the
protection idea is spreading in the
south. That is because they want it
to spread, and not because they
have any proof that it is spreading.
The Philadelphia Press, for instance,
says that the south is veering around
to protection principles, and in sup
port of this assertion quotes from
the Birmingham, Ala., Age, and de
clares that nearly all of the loading
southern journals dissent from the
course pursued by Speaker Carlisle
in refusing special favors to the ad
vocates of the bill for the reduction
of the tobacco tax. Indeed, the
Press is inclined to think that this
action of the Speaker will cause a
break in the democratic ranks on
the tariff question.
If the Philadelphia Press and
other protection journals at the
north are so sure that the south is
gradually becoming converted to
protection why do they not publish
a few opinions gathered from the
leading manufacturers of this and
other southern states, and of public
men wno are in a position to know
what southern sentiment is but who
are not interested in any hssiness
which they think protection will
benefit. It has been staUd time
and time again that the presidents
of some of the largest cotton facto
ries in this state do not favor a high
protective tariff. They believe that
a low tariff would not only stimulate
cotton manufacturing in the south,
but would enable the products of
southern mills to compete with the
products of England's mills in tho
markets of South America.
No prominent southern journal,
with the exception, has become
an advocate of protection within the
last few years. Tho New Orleans
papers have alwaj'S been sort of
half and half, owing to the sugar in
terest in Louisiana. If it were not
tor that interest it is doubtful if
there would be much protection talk
hoard in that state.
But of tho whole press of the
south how much of it is in favor of
protection ? Avery small part of
it. In this and other nthcr
states the country press i-s almost
entirely orffthe side of tariff reform.
These papery are close to the masses,
and they express the sentiments of
tne communities in which they are
pi:l>lis!u A * ..
T*i TffeoYT"TUteg?p 1 * a iJvrnavs
ago pointed to its owir prosperous
condition as an indication that pro
tection sentiments find favor in this
state. It is probable that it would
be just as prosperous if it advocated
tariff reduction. It has tho merit
to succeed even if it doesn’t always
express sentiments in harmony
with those of a majority of its read
ers. .Representative Blount, of the
Macon district, is a pretty good tariff
reformer, and if the voters of that
district agree with tho Telegraph
rather than with Mr. Blount, why
don’t they send an out and out pro
tectionist to congress ? The chances
are that tho Telegraph wouldn’t
make much headway in trying to
defeat the able representative ot the
Sixth district.
No, the protection idea is not
spreading in the south, and if there
is a break in Ike ranks of the demo
cratic party it will not be caused by
the spread of that idea in this por
tion ot the Union.
A man who has practiced medicine
for 40 years ought to know sail

Educated and Uneducated.
In an article under the above
heading the Savannah Morning
News savs :
It is related of Dr. Hitchcock,
one of the presidents of Amherst
College, that when ho was asked
from what institntion he graduated,
he replied : “From my mother’s
dyo tub. In explanation, it is
said that when Dr. Hitchcock was a
boi' in many houses a wooden dye
tub. holding eight or ten gallons,
stood in almost every kitchen chim
ney corner, filled with dye, where
the good house wives colored the
yarn for the stockings and gloves of
the household. It was a cosy place,
and the covered top was frequently
occupied by children when study
ing their arithmetic and grammar.
As it was with Dr. Hitchcock, so it
has-been with many others. They
have received their aducation in the
strongly individualized school of
homo. There may have been a
lack o f what is called system in
their education, but there has been
ao lack of thorough, practical in
struction.
11 is * question whether the schools
and colleges are not hampered with
too much system. The plan, as a
rule, is to force all ymuths to go
through a certain course of cram
ming without reference to differences
in talents and inclinations, and the
result is that to a large degree indi
viduality is destnryed. Such a
system has faults. There are evi
dences on every hand that those
who are forced to become its vic
tims leave the schools and colleges
not only with their individuality
seriously impaired, but in more
than one sense “uneducated.” Preof
of this is found in the large number
of graduates who are unable to put
their acquirements to profitable use.
They arc like so many wooden im
ages, each resembling the other,
and none ot them able to move
without outside influences.
What is needed in the United
States, and especially in the south,
is education thalwili so train youths
that they will not find it necessary
after graduating to spend several
years finding out what they are tit
fer and becoming acquainted with
the ordinary principles of business.
There arc those who call sach edu
cation utilitarian, but there is no
reason why utilitarian education
r'ioulH he inconsistent with the

MATTHEWS’ SUCCESSOR NOMI
NATED.
He is Also a Gentleman of Color.
Washington, Feb., 28.—. James
Monroe Trotter, nominated to-day
to be recorder of deeds of the Dis
trict of Columbia in place of Mat
thews, who was twice rejected by
the senate, is a colored citizen of
Massachusetts and is in ttie 48th
year of his age. His earl} 7 childhood
was spent in the state of Ohio. For
the past thirty-five years he has re
sided in Massachusetts, where, prior
to the war, he was a teacher. Soon
after the breaking out of the rebel
lion he enlisted as a private in the
55th Massachusetts regiment of col
ored Iroops and was promoted for
acts of bravery on tiie battlefield
until he became lieutenant. Upon
his return to civil life tie was ap
pointed and filled for eighteen voars
the position of assistant superinten
dent of the registered letter depart
ment in the Boston off-e. From
this position he was retired in 1884,
on account, it is said, of his indepen
dence in polities, and his avowed
purpose of supporting President
Cleveland. During the campaign
of 1884 tie was appointed one of the
seereiaries of the committee of one
hundred of Boston, Mass., and was
aetiv* in the support of the nomi
nees of the democratic party. It is
stated that he was strongly recom
mend*d by the eitiaens of Hyde
Park, Mass., where he resides, for
the position of postmaster of that
place, and he is said to be regarded
by those who know him as a man
of high character and ability. He
is the author of a volume entitled
“Music and Musical People of the
Colored Pace.”
Miracuous Escape.
W. W. Peed, druggist, of Win

nia Randolph Cos., Ind., was a long
sufferer with consumption, and was
given up to die by her physicians.
She heard of Dr. King's Mew Dis
covery for consumption, and began
buying it of me. .In six months'
time she walked to this city a dis
tance of six miles, and is now so
much improved she has quit using
it. She feels she owes her life to it.”

The Fortifications Bill Will Again Fall.
Washington, March 2. —There
have been a dozen fruitless attempts
during the last twenty-four hours to
get together the conferees on the
fortifications appropriation bill.
When the senate conferees notify
tho house conferees that they are
ready to meet them, the latter are
engaged in other conferences, or in
pressing business on the floor, and
when the house managers get to
gether and proceed to the senate
wing, they find the senators like
wise engaged. So this bill, which
failed of passage last session, appears
to be lost beyond redemption. An
other effort will be madeTo get the
conferees together to-morrow, but
it is confidently expected that the
only result ot the meeting will be
the recording of a total disagree
ment between tho two houses. After
agreeing to create a board to expend
tho money to be appropriated and
settling its composition, all other
details were, to all appearances, set
tled in conference except the amount
to be appropriated under the differ
ent heads. When these matters
soetned to be in a way to settlement
the same old difference between the
two houses, relative to the purchase
of materials, was revived and could
not be compromised. The house
conferees were willing to report a
bill with an aggregate appropria
tion of 811,000,000, of which sum
$6,000,000 was to be expended in tho
purchase of steel and other material,
but they insisted that three guns, of
8, 10 ami 12 inches calibre, should
be first built and severely tested,
and if these tsu resulted satisfacto
rily the remainder ot the appropri
ation was to become available. Tho
senate conferees, however, believ
ing that under these conditions
no guns could be procured for
years to come, declared that they
should insist upon appropriating
money, without such a proviso,
for the purchase of 10.000 tons of
gun steui, under machine tests, to
be immediately used in gun con
struction, This difference seems to
nave beean irremediable, and will
lead to the failure of the bill.

The Value of Money.
Writing on the above subjoet an
exchange says:
Teach your children that money,
honestly accumulated, is gained by
earnest, assiduous toil in some hon
orable occupation ; arid instead of
being “filthy lucre,” it is the repre
sentative of comfort, civilization,
and refinement. Teach them the
difference between revering it as a
god and using it as a valuable means
of accomplishing great good to one’s
self and toothers. Teach them ihe
differences between waste and thrift;
prodigality and frugality; dissipa
tion and accumulation.
Farmers, of all men, have the
best chance to give their children
lessons in thrift—practical lessons,
object lessons in fact—upon th•
great and real value of money.
Give your children, both boys and
girls, a chance to earn money for
themsfclves. It will be of far more
practical value to them than if you
simply made them a present of it.
Let the boys have a patch of
ground to themselves —either to
gether or separate, as may suit them
best. Give them good land, the
best, or as good as you have. It
will not take much—only enough to
occupy them when not engaged
with their studies. Let them plant
groundpeas, melons, popcorn, Vege
tables, or whatever their fancy or
the market facilities may distate is
the most saleable. Show them how
and when to plant, ami how to cul
tivate. Give them all the tools,
teams and manure necessary to a
good crop, but let them do all, or
nearly all, the work. Encourage
instead of scolding them when old
Sol poors out his summer smiles
upon their weary backs. Remem
ber that you were boys once, and a
neighboring shade-tree looked al
most like a paradise about ten
o’clock on a July morning. Encour
age the boys to read th newspaper,
and any other matter you have upon
farm topics. Do not overwork
them, however. Give them reason
able time for recreation, but impress
upon the : r minds the great truth :
“There is no excellence without
labor.”
Saved His Life.
Mr. D. I. Wilcox.son, of Horse
Cave, Ky., says ho was, for many
years, badly afflicted with Phthisic,
also Diabetes; the pains were almost
unendurable and would sometimes
almost throw him into convulsions.
He tried Electric Bitters and got
relief from first bottle and after tak
ing six bottles, was entirely cured,
and had gained in flesh eighteen
pounds. Says he positively believes
he would have died, had if not been
for the relief afforded by Electric
Bitters. Sold at fifty cents a bottle
