THE VALDOSTA TIMES, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 1 7) 1906.
RETURN DAY FOR
CITY COURT.
for the March Term.
Sheriff and Deputies Have But Three
Days in Which to Serve the Pa
pers in all Parts of the County.-
G. Rawlings is Defendant in One
Suit Filed Today.
(From Tuesday’s Dally.)
Today Is return day for the city
court and a large number of suits
are being filed. Most of them are
suits on account and are against par
ties in various parts of the county.
There were between forty and fifty
of these cases by noon today and the
officers were expecting others to be
brought in. Owing to the illness of
It. B. Myddleton, clerk of the city
court, his brother Ralph, had charge
of the affairs of the office.
These have to be served fifteen
days before the time for ‘ holding
court, which gives the sheriff and bis
deputies but three days in which to
serve papers upon the defendants.
'As the defendants are living in vari
ous parts of the county and as it
may be difficult to find them, the offi
cials have their hands full in trying
to do the work in the time allotted
them.
Among the damage suits that were
filed today is one against Henry
Boyd, brought by Sharper Hall, dam'
ages being sought for an alleged loss
to the plaintiff by reason of a mill
dam which the defendant ert ted.
This suit is for five hundred dollars'
damages.
Another suit is brought against J.
G. Rawlings by the Harley Hard
ware Company. The amount involv
ed is $375* the plaintiffs being secur*
ed by property in Coffee county. The
suit is for the purpose of making the
records in the case clear and to de
liver to the plaintiff the property
named in the deed.
The regular term or the city court
meets the first Monday in March
and the outlook is that it will be a
very busy session.

EXPERIENCE OF A NEW FARMER
The “Farm and Ranch,” published
Dallas, Texas, gives thus the expo
rience of a man new at the business
of tanning:
“Bristol, Texas
“I am an old hand at a new busi
ness—turned farmer.’ tV|e
No, no—just want to enjoy the rest
of my life and think the farm is the
real place of enjoyment. I began the
new business last August—unusual
time of year to begin a crop, but
began as soon as I got foot-loose from
a former occupation. How
start? Well, first, I subscribed for
‘Farm and Ranch,’ read every line
a few numbers, liked it, got a few
ideas, then began to execute them.
This was in August, 1905.
"I wanted to grow alfalfa. I found
three old disc plows idle which
bought for $15 each, and began turn
ing some low bottom land that
growing weeds on account of
tinued rain last spring. The first
rain after breaking I would run my
disc harrow, then a section harrow
twice (both' ways). About October 15
we got a good rain and on October
23 l began sowing alfalfa with
wheelbarrow drill, 22 pounds per acre.
I covered my seed with the disc nar
row, then gave the ground a double
harrowing with section harrow
smooth the land. In this manner
got forty-five acres planted in October
and now have a perfect stand that
has stood our usual amount of rain
for the last six weeks and at tills
writing is 4 inches under snow.
November and December I continued
my disc plowing and harrowing and
have forty acres more ready to sow
as soon as spring opens.”-.
The “old hand at a new business
(namely farming) living in Texas,
rightly took the "Farm and Ranch

Doan’s Kidney Pills cure such Ills.
Mrs. R. B. Keene, who lives at the
corner of Hicks and Lee Avenues,
Waycross, Ga., says.- T used Doan’i
Kidney Pills and found great relief
for backache and kidney complaint.
For a great many years I was a suf
ferer from this trouble, the pain
across my loins at times being severe
that I could hardly do my house'
work. The secretions were Irregular
and contained a sediment. I used
remedy after remedy and plaster af-
scratched, though the keepers
thought before the count was made
that two or three names had been
scratched on some of the tickets

Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy the
Mother’s Favorite.
The soothing and healing proper
ties of this remedy, its pleasant taste
and prompt and permanent cures
have made It a favorite with people
everywhere. It is especially prized
by mothers of small children, for
colds, croup and whooping cough, as
It always affords quick relief, and as

drug, it may be given as confidently
to a baby as to an adult. For sale

The proposition to buy five hun
dred thousand bales of cotton this
year in order to force up the price
may succeed for a season, but it will
bring disaster in the long run. These
bales of cotton will be carried over
to the next season and then double
the amount will have to be bought.
President Jordan hal better hold his
association down to the business of
limiting the crop, rather than trying
to make them believe that high price*
are coming regardless of the size of
the crop.

Store House Was Saturated with
Kerosene Oil and Fired by Incen
diaries—Flames Discovered by Par
ties Who Were Waiting for a De
layed Train and Fire was Extin
guished.
Mr. J. N. Griffin and other par*
ties who came down from Sparks on
the midnight train last night tell of
‘ffort of incendiaries to burn up
business houses and the fact that the
train wa's about one and a half hours
behind time was all that saved the
place.
It is said that the fire was located
in the store of Whitehurst and Rob
inson by parties who were waiting
for the “shoofly” train, which was
then over due.
Mr. Griffin, who is an old flre-flght-
r, at once organized a bucket bri
gade and set to work fighting the
flames.
The rear door of the store was
open and the place had been thor’
(Highly saturated with oil, a bottlo
hich the oil had been carried to
the scene being found on the floor
there. *
When the fire was discovered the
flames were bursting from the roof
of the store, which is located in the
heart of the, business district. In an
other minute or so the flames would
have been beyond control and proba
bly that entire part of the place
would have been destroyed.
As soon as the fire was discovered
the men who were waiting for the
train lost no time in getting to it and
in flooding the place with water from
buckets.
It is said that Mr. Whitehurst has
been a victim of several fires recent
ly and there has been a suspicion of
incendiarism in each case.
