‘ 10 BEAUTIFY
The Coniederate Ceme
[ tery--Avenues to Be
' Constructed.
! i
" The trustees of the Confederate cem
etery at Marietta, to disburse the $5,-
000 appropriated by the state, met last
Friday and decided that they would at
once beautify the cemetery, lay off and
construet avenues through the grounds,
centering at and circling the Confeder
ate ‘monument. The avenues will be
systematically graded and & permanent
macadam placed on them to give dura
bility.
Everybody will be pleased to see this
gacred place, where rest the noble Con
federate dead, put in as good condition
as the small appropriation will justify.
The trustees are Mayor E, P. Dohbs ;
J. M. Gann, Ordinary; Joe M. Austin,
Clerk of Court; Mrs R. T. Nesbitt, Mrs.
M, RR. Lyon, Miss Sena Towers and Mrs.
Pratt.
Gives Five Gallons of Milk
Per Day, of Rich
Quality.
We have had occasion to mantion the
fine Jersey cowe of Mr.J. D Northeutt
and Mr. J. W, Petty, giving five gallons
of milk per day each. This has devel
oped the fact that several of our citi
zens are fortunate owners of cows of
equal eapacity a 8 milk producers. We
met Mrs. D. C. Cole at the post-office
Thursday, and she incidentally re
marked: ‘‘l see in the Journal where |
’ you speak of fire cows, I have a Jersey
cow that gives five gallons of milk per
day, which yielded nine poands of but
ter in six days.”” The editor remarked,
“‘Such a splendid cow as that is worthy
of mention in the Journal.” Mrs.
Cole naturally feels proud of the owner
ship of such a fine milker and Lutter
producer, and so would we, if we owned
her.
Mr. Frank Lumpkin says he has a
cow that gives four gallons of milk per
day, which yields 2!4 pounds of butter
per day. For richness and quantity of
butter, Mr. Lumpkin’s cow takes the
blue ribbon.

Peacefully and Happily in |
the Same Tree in
Marietta.
Mr. B. A. Osborn, night policeman,
told us the other day of a discovery he
made at his home place, on Powder
Springs street, in this city. He has a
beautiful grove of trees about his resi
dence and property, and he says that in
the top of one of the trees is a squir
rel’s nest, and several young aquirrelsf
have been born there this spring, which,
together with the parent squirrelg, can
be seen playing about on the limbs of
the trees, while further down the tree
is a knot hole that gives entrance to
the hollow tree. A swarm of bees have
taken up their abode inside the tree
and are industriously st work. Thus
the same tree furnishes a home for the
frisky squirrels and the busy bees, all
peacefully disposed.
Mr. Osborn says in the northeast cor
ner of the Confederate cemetery there
is a post oak tree, and at the bottom of
the tree is a rabbit hole, and for three
years bees have occupied the interior
of that tree, going in and out the rab
bit hole. There iz no telling of the
amount of honey stored in that tree.
DECKER—REYNOQLDS.

A TOUGH PROPOSITION.
The editor of The Lamar Democrat
shows how the world ‘‘doer”’ the editor:
‘“lf a business man, for example, buys
himself a pair of socks, that don’t an
swer anybody’s demand for socks but
himself, No one can drop in and say,
‘Let me have your socks awhile, Bill.’
Higs wife can’t say, ‘‘When you get
through with those socks, papa, hand
them, over to me.” His neighbor can’t
drop in and say, ‘I thought I'd come
over and see if you were through with
your socks.” But with a newspaper, it’s
diffevent. One copy very often angwers
regularly for not less than twenty peo
ple. Tough proposition, this running a
newepaper.”’
