But one-third of the land now in cultivation is too thin and worn to pay more than cost of of culti vation if that much.

A California paper gives some in¬ teresting facts relative to the growing of grapes. It says: “The total ex¬ pense of cultivating an acre of grapes is $16; the curing and packing of an acre of grapes, making 100 boxes of raisins, $55. The average price for raisins for the last four yeajrs lias been about $1.60 per box. putting the price at $1.40 per box for the four grades, we have a total net profit of $95 per acre. Many vineyards do bet¬ ter than the above. Vineyards have frequently been known to produce grapes enough the first year after planting to pay expenses of cultiva¬ tion. The second year brings from $30 to $50 per acre gross; third year from $60 to $ 100 .” Not alone in California is grape culture becoming profitable, but the experience of the past few years has shown that Georgia soil is productive of the most luscious of the vinous fruits. There are a number of peo¬ ple who have made independent fortunes from the sale of thefruitand from superior wine made from the juices, and right here in Glynn c 6 un ty is a profitable field, where experi¬ ence has demonstrated that grapes will grow abundantly if proper care is bestowed ou their culture. Pimples, blotches, scaly skin, ugly spots, sores and ulcers, abscesses and tumors, unhealthy discharges, such as catarrh, eczema, ringworm, and other forms of skin diseases, are symptoms of blood impurity.

The report recommends that the health authorities shall regulate the holding of baggage or freight from infected places during a yellow fever epidemic and that the regulations and restrictions shall be such as to afford protection to endangered committees. Tliat at all seasons of the year, and under all circumstances the simple passage of trains should be allowed even when cart-} ing P1C R refugees[to other lacahties, and t lat this privilege should be tuforced whenever necessar}. r lhat only competent physicians who have had experience with yel¬ low fever should be made inspectors of quarantine stations and have power to administer oaths and detain passengers and baggage. That state boards of health should be authorized to enforce quarantine regulations that quarantine stations at southern seaports are of great ad¬ vantage and should be continued. That ticket agents should be re¬ quired not to sell tickets to persons during yellow fever epidemics unless such persons make a showing that they have been absent twelve days from infected districts, and that per¬ sons traveling in the southern coun¬ try during yellow fever epidemics shall be required to have health cer¬ tificates.

Perhaps it would have been better for him to go across and help a fellow, but he spoke a sentence of sound philosophy in those two words.
