Sinai! Industries of the Farm.
We take the following from the
Southern Enterprise, a large sixteen
page monthly, published in Atlanta,
and “devoted to the development of
the material resources of our country.”
This excellent monthly costs only
one dollar a year. Send ten cents to
S. T. Jenkins,>or J. S. Newman, Atlan
ta, Ga., and get a specimen copy.
Editors Southern Enterprise: A
stranger who has been accustomed to
hign culture and diversified husbandry,
in traveling in Georgia, is most forci
bly struck with the want of attention
and neglect of the small industries of
the farm. Horticulture, the dairy,
poultry, bees, etc., are pretty generally
ignored, when, in fact, our country
possesses all the natural advantages
for the successful prosecution of all
these economies. All kinds of fruit,
both green aud dried, can be sold at a
fair profit. What folly it is to send
North for cabbages, when they can
be raised at home ! And what stupen
dous folly it is to send thousands of
dollars (“cotton money”) annually to
the North and West for butter, when
every Southern farmer has it within
his power to produce as good butter
as comes from either of the above sec
tions. This is no idle assertion to say
that every farmer can do it, for there
are hundreds now doing it in our
State. But these are no “Rip Van
Winkle” farmers. They have had the
brain and the will to eut loose from
the antiquated ideas of their fathers,
and have improved their stock, learned
the importance o special forage crops,
aud have availed themselves of the
improved dairy appliances.
Poultry, when properly managed,
always pays a big per cent, on the
capital invested. It is estimated that
the eggs traffic of the United States
amounts to $18,000,000 per annum.
It amounts to $8,000,000 in the city of
New York alone. To make poultry
breeding profitable, it must be intelli
gently conducted. Those breeds that
have compactness of body take on fat
readily, and, besides, have vigor of
constitution, should be selected for the
table, while for egg-producers, some of
the non-sitting breeds may be the
most desirable. The writer breeds
poultry largely, and he finds the drop
pings quite compensate for all the feed
they consume. The fowls are housed
in well-ventilated apartments every
night, and the manure is carefully
swept up and removed every morning.
One ton of chicken manure is fully
equal to a ton and a half of any of the
manipulated guanos. When compost
ed, it can be successfully applied to
most any crop.
Bee keeping is another industry
that is too much neglected. It has
been well said of the “little busy bee,’’
that it “works for nothing and boards
itself.” They are willing to work in
most any kind of a house you give
them. But in order to secure the
greatest profits from them, it is to the
interest of the owner to have them in
a hive with movable frames, so ar
ranged that he can have perfect control
over them. There are comparatively
few localities where a few stands of
bees can not be kept with profit, and
when given the proper care and atten
tion, will not only gather enough honey
for the wants of the family, but some
for sale. Honey will pay at ten cents
per pound. Nice comb honey in small
frames usually brings twenty cents —
sometimes twenty-five cents per pound;
and it must be a very poor season if
your hives will not average you forty
pounds each.
These small industries are well wor
thy the husbandman’s attention. They
go a long way toward making up the
“sum” of the farmer’s profits.

What Will ItT’roflt l
[LaGrange Reporter.]
What will it profit a man if he makes
a hundred bales of cotton, and pays it
all out for expenses ? What does it
profit, if a man has an income of a
million dollars and spends it all ? It
is the amount saved, and not the
amount made, which makes men rich
and independent. The man who
steadily lays by a sum every year, be
that sum large or small, is on the way
to a competency; while he who spends
the full amount of his income every
year, no matter how large that income
may be, will necessarily be as poor at
the end of lile as at the beginning.
It is noticed as an invariable fact,
that those farmers who raise cotton to
the exclusion of provisions, never have
anything to begin the new year with.
The seasons may be propitious and
the crops may be luxuriant; but all
that they make is taken to pay for sup
plies. On the other hand, it is a fact
equally as noteworthy, that those
farmers who raise their own supplies
are always in a sound condition.
Their credit is good; merchants are
anxious to sell to them; they never
have to go into bankruptcy; their
houses are kept in good repair and
well furnished; their stock is fat and
sleek; their minds are at peace, and
their dreams are never disturbed by
dreams of the sheriff.
We are glad to siy that gradually
the former class is decrasing and the
latter increasing, in Middle Georgia
Every year more and more men are
being converted to the sound policy of
raising supplies, and every year more
and more supplies are made. Our
people are every year less and less in
the bondage of commission merchants
and factors. May the day soon come
when the sturdy farmers of Georgia
will make not only what they need,
but enough for all the consumers in
the State. Then, and not till then,
will we again be rich, as a people.—
Speaking of George T. Wilborn, D.
D., the reverened gentleman who re
cently fell from grace, a correspondent
of the Madison Home Journal says:
‘When female members of congrega
tions shall learn to treat ministers, no
matter how handsome, elegant and fas
cinating they may be, just as they treat
all other men, then we may expect to
hear less of seductions and elopements.
‘We have always loved you,’ says
Grant in every one of his speeches to
the English. Yes, and we can do it
again.—Detroit Free Press.
Time will be to us what, by our use
of the treasure, we make it—a good or
an evil.
Well Said.
[Columbus Times.]
The intolerant arid abusive course of
some of the friends of Milledgeville
will not help their cause. Such h
course, without reason, always hurts
tho e who pursue it. They are now
making Hon. B. H. Hill an object of
attack because of his late letter favor
ing Atlanta. The Milledgeville Union
accuses him of being influenced by
property interest in Atlanta, by favors
shown him by the people of that city,
and by ‘a feeling sense of favors to
come.' A correspondent of the Old
Capital attacks Mr. Hill’s Democracy
because of his letter, and says that his
‘motive as well as his pocket-interests
in this matter’ are to be questioned.
All this, the people will bear in mind,
is simply because Mr. Hill differs with
them on the capital question, and has
exercised his undoubted right of giving
his reasons to the people. When he
made a speech advocating the ratifica
tion of the new they had
no censure for his intermeddling with
State matters; but as soon as he crosses
their war-path on the capital question,
the Union declares that he ‘has step
ped down from the lofty pedestal of a
Senator representing the whole State
of Georgia,’ and the correspondent as
sails his motives. Tbe people of Geor
gia are not to be influenced by violence
and intolerance such as this.
We have heard it stated that in some
parts of Georgia, notably in Putnam
county, the negroes are told that if the
capital remains in Atlanta, anew one
will have to be built, which will cost
two million dollars; that every negro
will be taxed five dollars to pay for it;
and that if this tax is not paid they
will be put in the chain-gang. Just
such lies as this made the negroes the
slaves of Radical leaders a few years
ago. Is it possible that white men,
Democrats, Georgians, are playing
upon the ignorance of the negroes in
that nefarious manner? It would
seem incredible, and yet the papers
favoring Milledgeville are trying to de
ceive their white readers by the very
same story, iterated and reitera
ted. It is time to quit talking about
the ‘dark doings’ of Radicals.—La-
Grange Reporter.
Alluding to the strictly party vote on
the Louisiana Senatorial question, the
Baltimore Gazette says: ‘The ssven
to-eight view of the Southern policy
has revived in the thirty-six to thirty
three vote in the Senate. The Repub
lican party returns to the infamy of
the Louisiana usurpation like the sow
thathad been washed, to her wallowing
in the mire.’

The Most Crowded Place is that where Goods are Sold the Cheapest.
AnnourifemeTit for tlie Your* 1877.
JOHN KEELY has just received and marked off his Fall Stock of Dry Goods, Notions, Hosiery and Gloves, Gents’ Furnishing
Goods, Hats, Boots and Shoes, Cloaks and Shawls, Trunks, etc,, which for volume, variety, beauty, desirability and cheapness, will be found
to surpass, by far, any stock ever placed before the public in Atlanta at any time previous. Having been tor nearly a month past in attend
ance upon New York. ‘'forced sales,” he has purchased au immense stock of goods, for the greater part of which he has paid nothing like tiieii
value. Consequently he can sell “bargains.” This advertisement is no extravagant exaggeration expended upon a mere handful of goods,,
purchased, perhaps, at high figures and nnder the pressure of a doubtful credit.
ONT THE 003XTTHA.IIY,
This magnificent stock of goods was purchased for the CASH, and in its purchase the subscriber did not confine himself to the regular chan
nels of trade, hot struck out boldly upon the market, relying upon his judgment (the result of thirty years of experience) and plucked splen
did windfalls from under the hammer of the auctioneer, the sheriff, and from the hands of the assignee. These facts have enabled him to
place before the public the following list, which he guarantees to till the letter and which speaks for itself, viz :
