Borne, Ga., Saturday, August 9, 1873.
Peaches are abundant in Rome.
It rains almost every day.
-
The prospects are that bread will
be in abundance and cheap.
Our Cherokee Fair prospects are
exceedingly fair for a grand success.
The Premium List of the Cherokee
Fair will be out in a few days.
Important business will probably
call A. B. S. Moseley to Montgomery,
Ala., for several days.
—
Several hearts will be made happy
in Rome this week—we have a large
table in our office to receive cake and
“sich like.”
Mr. Wm. Poole, painter, presented
last Friday night, a most beautiful
banner to Mechanics Lodge of Good
Templars. It is handsome in design,
beautiful in execution <ui(l artistic in
taste. *

The bridge across the Oostanaula
river needs a thorough washing out,
can’t Col. Hills give this bridge a call
while sprinkling our streets.
Our friend Leonard Todd has bought
Mr. R. J. Fort’s interest in their busi
ness and will continue the same at the
old stand.

The Rev. Kinchcn Rambo will

We arc pleased to see Captain J. L.
Todd again able to be on our streets.
His arm which was broken on the
Romo Railroad about six weeks ago is
slowly getting well.

Tickets to the Fair.
Cherokee Fair Association, )
Rome, August 4, 1373. I
Where it is not convenient for par
ties'to call or send for a copy of the
premium list, they will please send me
their name and postoffico address. 1
v. .11 with pleasure send it to all such.
The admission tickets are now on
sale. Parties wishing to secure a
chance for some of those valuable
gifts would do well to buy their tickets
nt once for each day they expect to
attend. Price 50 cents each; six tick
ets for three dollars. See list of gifts
in another column.
Wo hope to s< 11 all the tickets be
fore the Fair opens. If so, the tickets
we sell after that will bo 50 cents each,
but will not entitle the holder to a
chance for a gift.
Thus. J. Perry, Sec’y.
M. A. Wimpef., Jr., is building a
new omnibus for Choice Hotel. This
we believe, is the first time such a
thing has ever been undertaken in
Rome. Mat. Wimpeo knows exactly
how to make anything that runs on
wheels from a wheel-barrow to an om
nabus or six horse wagon. He is a
master workman in wood and iron and
his work never fails to give satisfac
tion.
Fields or Dock. The root of the
yellow dock so troublesome to farmers,
is an effectual alternative and a most
valuable medicine. In the neighbor
hood of Lowell. Dr. J. C. Ayer A Co.
have planted fields of it, where they
raise many tons at a crop. It is grown
like the carrot or beet, in drills, and
its quality or properties have been
much improved by cultivation. It is
one of the ingredients in Ayer’s Sarsa
parilla, ami. we are informed, the ex
traordinary virtues of this preparation
are largely due to the extract of this
root that it contains. The Sarsapa-
rilla root used by this firm, is grown
on plantations of their own in Hondu
ras, to secure an article of superior
and wholly reliable quality. One of
the reasons for flic universally ac
knowledged superiority of their medi
cines, may be seen in the watchful
care that is used in preparing them. —

We take pleasure in calling the at
tention of our readers to the card of
the Secretary of the Agricultural and
Mechanical Fair Association in ‘anoth
er column. The ticket system adopt
ed by the Board of Directors is a very
liberal one and one that should meet
the hearty support of every citizen in
Cherokee Georgia and Alabama. The
Association needs some money to meet
Some pressing demands and to put
everything in order by the time the
Fair opens and have issued twelve
thousand tickets and pu tthem on sale.
Price 50 cents, which admits the bear
er to the Fair one day and as an in
ducement to the citizens to buy them
and put the Association in funds they
have offered several valuable premi
ums to the ticket holders, (see card.)
They are finding ready sale and are
expected to be sold some time before
the Fair opens* When they are sold
other tickets will be issued and sold at
50 cents but tliey will not entitle the
holder to a chance at these gifts.So we
would advise our readers to buy at
once for in so doing they not only aid
the Association in getting all things in
grand trim for the exhibition but stand
a chance of getting one of them; a
$650 piano. So don’t delay but go at
once or semi to the Secretary and get
them. The Board of Directors and
the Secretary have worked long, hard
and faithfully to make the next Fair a
grand success; so far they have suc
ceeded well. Their exhibition rooms
show it, allthatnowremains to be done
is with the citizens to rally to it, pre
pare and take as many things as they
can. Many are buying tickets who
know they will be absent during the
Fair, but they buy to aid the Associa
tion, and with a hope of getting some
of those valuable gifts; go and do like
wise.
When you go to Atlanta stop at the
Air Line House. They give you the
same fare of other hotels and don’t
charge but half the price.
A big name for a hotel is a big thing,
but it ain’t good to eat or sleep on.
Try the Air-Line House one time.tf.
