its noxious vapors. The patches cf
weeds and heaps of trash on vacant lots |

larly dangerouse, and no time should
be lpst in putting in order every city or |
town in the state.
CONSTITUTION'S CENTURY
OFFER--$2500 CASH.
The Agents Best Chance.—New Year,
New Agents, New Methods,
The Constitution now offers $2500.00
in cash prizes to agents for the very
best agents work during the first quar
ter of the first year of the new centary.
Omitting all contests, except for agents,
they place the whole sum to the agent’s
credit and make the terms equitable
for distributing it over the whole terri
tory. To arrange this the South has
been divided into four sections, as fol
lows: ;
Ist Section. Virginia North Carolina,
South Carolina and Florida. \
2nd Section. Tennessee, Alabama
and Mississippi.
3rd Section. Georgia.
4th Section. Lousiana, Arkansas,
Texas, Indian Territory and Oklahoma.
This making about ‘equal number of
smbseriptions according to the Consti
tution’s list as it now stands.
THE CASH PRIZES ARE
For highest list from ANY agent, .
Jan. Ist to April Ist, 1901,
fron whole territory ... ... $ 400.00
For the highest list in EACH of
the above four divisions
from Jan. Ist to April Ist,
1901, After the above first
general prize is awarded. . 300.00
For the second highest list for
three months in each section 100.00
For the third bighest list for
three monthsin each section 50.00
For the fourth highest list for
three months ineach seetion 25.00
For the fifth highest list for three
months in each section. .... 15.00
For the sixth highest list for
three monthsin each section 10.00
Six prizes in each séction $ 500.00
Total for four sections $2000.00
For the ten next highest 'lists
from the whole territory at
random, not taking any of
the above prizes, $lO 00 each $ 100.00
Total cash prizes from Jan
uary Ist to April Ist 1901 $2500.00
The subscribers to be renewed for
three months covered by this contest
are 48300 names. These with the new
subsecriptions secured will doubtless
run the list up appreciably in every
section. KEvery newspaper reader in
the South will be given an opportunity
to get on our list.
The Constitution wants good agents
everywhere. Men who will get out and
hustle for new business. Many who
have to go over their own and adjoin
ing counties on business can take The
Constitution along as the bestside line
Country doctors, tax collectors, rural
‘route mail carriers, nursery men, farm
ers and good workmen, could all realize
‘among these prizes add make their
commission besides. A fairsalary prop
osition for'any man.
- The Weekly Constitution makes spe
cial features of its agricultural page,
which is presided over by Colonel R. J.
Redding, director of the Georgia ex
periment farm, and a man who is recog
nized+ as an expert an all agricultural
topics. He gives a full page every week
on agricultural matters. A page is de
voted to the women and a page to the
children, these two departments being
presided over by Mrs William King.
The Constitution has just completed
the 31st year of its existence, Clark
Howell being the editor and Colonel W.
A. Hemphill its business manager. [ts
name is a household word in every
Southern state, from Virginia to Texas.
It has always been in especially close
touch with the agricultural masses of
the South, and having reached a cireu
lation which carries it into 150,000
homes it has won a unique distinetion
which ranks it among the greatest Am
erican weekly newspapers.
The Constitution will send a sample
copy of its great weekly toany one
sending his ownname and the names of
six neighbors, on a postal card.
Every man should take his county
paper before anything else, and next to
this he should take a good general news
paper, such as The Constitution. His
county paper gives him the local home
news, which is not supplied by a news
paper furnishing the general news from
all parts of the country and from all
over the world, Before a man seeks
information from outside, he should
feel sure that he is being kept posted
on what is going on at home. When,
however, the opportunity is offered to
get the the best weekly newspaper in
this country with your home paper, the
inducement is such as to elicit prompt
response from our readers.
We will be glad to receive clubbing
subseriptions with this paper and The
Constitution, and if there are any who
are now subscribers to this paper, who
wish to take The Constitution also, we
will be glad to receive subscriptions to
the latter and forward them, having
authority from thav paper to do so.
The Constitution should be in every
Southern home!
