MarieTTA, Feb. 9, 1885, Messks. NearL & Massey-—Editors: I am loth to believe that a gentleman’s word may be doubted when he makes statements which appear (but only so) to run against preconceived notions, but I was informed that such was likely to be the case, by per sons who are paying $24 a ton for hay, while I'am feeding my stock with Millo canes, which cost me little or nothing. So rather than back out from trying to help my fel lows to something which will blot out Zthat terrible word “forage;” 1 got the enclosed “backing,” which, if of interest, you may publish. Yours, G. W. Bexson. The undersigned visited Mr. Geo. W. Ben son’s home for the purpose of looking into statements about Millo Maize. We exam ‘ined his stock, seven head of cattle and three horses, and they were in good order and evidenced good keeping through the winter. His large barn loft was filled with hay and other forage, which evidently had not been touched for feed. Indeed, we saw two bales of which Mr. Bensen's man told us was bought last September, and that he had had no cal} to use them nor any of the hay, or else in the barn since the first day of No vember, at which time he commenced feed ing the stock with Millo canes and has fed only those for roughness since that day and thinks he has enough of the canes to feed until the middle of April. We examined the canes and they appear to be us fresh and sweet, almost juicy, as when they were put by last October. We also ate light bread and bread made like corn bread of Millo-middlings, which was excellent, and the milk from the cows was also very good. J. R. WiNTERS, W. M. Sessions, Marietta, Feb. 7,’85. Jas. G. HucHes. Upsuaw, Ga., Feb, 4, 1885, Mg. G. W. Bexson—Dear Sir: Pressing engagements have prevented my writing you earlier in relation to the cooking of the Millo Maize meal you gave me. I had it made into batter-cakes and was delighted with them. My whole family liked them very much. I also tendered the stalks to my mules They took hold of it readily and showed they were fond of it. | I had an interview a few days ago with Prof. F. M. Duncan, of Dallas, in relation to his experience with the same plant. He says he saved 15 bushels of good seed from one-fourth of an acre. He let it stand in the field till after the first frost and then cut off the heads and packed away in his barn. The seed has kept well and is now in good condition, I think cultivation of this plant is des tined to be of great benefit to this country. It will be an important addition to our ce real and forage crops. Yours, L D. Ursnaw. P. S.—You are at liberty to use the above in any way you may desire to. ID. U, TOWN TALK. —Mrs. Dr. G. W.

The Sham and the Real. Every good thing has its host of imitators; every genuine article its counterfeits. Bad manners and wicked habits have theirs also; but he who shams the bad never boasts of it, while they who ape the virtues of the good or simulate the genuine never hesitate to Flace the counterfeit before the pub ic in their most alluring tones. “Phen these people imitate they always choose a pronounced type or pogular subject to copy from; and when they claim to be as good as “So-and-8o,” or to sell an article equal to “So-and-So,” the public may depend upon it that Mr. “So-and-So” and "his article are always the best of the kind. Thus the sham is always proving the genuine merit of the thing it copies. A firm of enterprising gentlemen produce aud popularize an article of household use, such as the Royal Baking Powder, whose convenience, usefulness, and real merit make for itself an immense and universal sale. A hundred imitators arise on every hand, and as they hold out their sham arti cles to the public, yelp in chorus, “Buy this; it's just as goo(f as Royal, and "much cheaper!” The Royal Baking Powder is“ the standard the world over, and its imita tors in their cry that theirs is “as good as Royal” are all the time emphasizing this fact. In their laborious attempts to show by analysis and otherwise that the “Snow ball” brand has as much raising power “as ‘the Royal,” or that the “Ressurrection” ‘powder is as wholesome “as Royal;” or that the “Karthquake” brand is “as “pure as the Royal,” as well as by their contortive twist ings of chemical certificates and labored ef forts to obtain recognition from the Govern ment chemists and prominent scientists who have certified the superiority of Royal over all others, they all admit the “Royal” to be the acme of perfection, which it is their highest ambition to imitate. But the difference between the real and these imi tations, which copy only its general appear ance, is as wide as that between the paste and the true diamond. The shams all pay homage to the “Royal.” 18856. With the new year provisions have com menced to advance and it will be well for the farmer to take advantage of the present prices to buy his supplies.
