French Market Coffee
Has Never Been Successfully Imitated
It Cannot Be
C OFFEE roasted the ordinary way is only
partially roasted, according to French
ideals. The French Market Coffee way
is the scientific way, producing a perfect roast.
Slowly—carefully—the roasting goes on until
exactly the right moment arrives.
The slow roast reduces about 10 per cent
more weight than the ordinary roast.
All excess of oil vanishes. Vet the delicate
flavor and aroma is there, intensified and en
hanced.
Chilled, Ground and
Hermetically Sealed
D IRECT from the roasters, the coffee is
chilled in a cold-air-blast machine. This
chilling closes the pores of the bean, thus
preventing a single breath of the entrancing
aroma to escape in the vapors.
Quickly—by automatic machinery—this freshly
roasted, freshly ground, freshly chilled, delicious
coffee is placed in tin cans, and hermetically
sealed.
So it comes to your table as perfect as
when it left the roasters—untouched by human
hands.
Famous for Over
a Hundred Years
E VEN when French Market Coffee could bo
had only in the old French Market at New
Orleans, over a hundred years ago, it was
celebrated all over the South.
Andrew Jackson, Henry Clay and other fa
mous men of olden times visited the French
Market to enjoy the rarely delicious beverage.
But now you all may serve it daily on your
own table.
For the rare old French blend has been per
petuated by the French Market Mills, and the
hermetically-sealed process places genuine
French Market Coffee within the reach of all.

Try it once and you’ll agree “There is only
one real old French Market flavor."

The Little Pests Ought to
be Exterminated
GOVERNMENT REPORT LOOKED
UPON AS AN INVITATION FOR
EVERYBODY TO TAKE UP
ARMS AGAINST THE BIRD.
“Mr. English Sparrow haying been
duly tried and found guilty of being
a pest, an undesirable and a general
nuisance, Unci© Sam respectfully in
vites all good citizens of these Uni
ted States to abolish him,” says"*
writer In Farm and Fireside.
"All persons who are Interested in
swatting the fly or exterminating the
mosquito are Invited to give a band
and chase from this land the little
brown bird, wrfose dynasty has ex
tended over a period of sixty years.
You can trap him, shoot him, poison
him; In fact, there’s a lot of thing*
you can do to him, and in tho opin
ion of the United States department
of agriculture, you will be doing the
country a good sized favor.
"The bill of complaint against Mr.
Sparrow, by Ned Dearborn, an ex-1
pert in the United Statea biological
survey, sets forth that he Is 'cun
ning, destructive and filthy.' He feeds
In winter on waste material, and m
summer switches his diet to weed
seeds and insects. About the only ex
tenuating circumstance advanced in
his favor is that he sometimes—but
very seldom—flies out to the country
district© where alfalfa grows and
does a little good service by prey
ing on the alfalfa weevil. But most
of the time he feeds on Insects which
play a useful part in agricultural ser
vice.
"Also he i» guilty of destroying
fruit, such as cherries, grapes, pears
and peaches. He gobbles up buds and
flower* of cultivated shrubs, trees and
vines. He causes havoc In gardens by
• nibbling at the peas and lettuce. H©
Is destructive to wheat and other
grains. Some Idea of th© extent of
his depredations is gained by th©
statement that a flock of fifty of his
fellows requires dally the equival
ent of a quart of grain. Hence the
annual loss throughout the country
mounts up to a large total.
"Furthermore, he is a pirate and a
disturber of the bird world. He preys
on some of our most useful and at
tractive birds, among the number be
ing the bluebirds, house wrens, pur
ple martins, tree swallows, cliffs swal
lows, barn swallows, the wrens and
mocking birds."
BRIDGE MAN WAS FIRED.
A New Man Readied the City This
Morning and Took his Place.
(From Wednesday’s Dally.)
Bridge Constructor Cummings,
who was sent here 'by the iron bridges
manufacturers, to superintend the
work of erecting the iron bridge
across Little River at Troupeville,
got in bad with Chairman Coffee, of
the county commissioners yesterday,
so a new man reached the city this
morning to take hie place. .....
During the slight drizzly rain yes
terday morning Chairman Coffee
went out to eee how the work was
getting on and he found all hands
Idle, <dgbt or ten convicts and other
laborers doing nothing, while the
expenses were climbing up and peo
ple on both sides of the river were
begging for iim bridge to be finish
ed.
Chairman Coffee got after the
bridge constructor and the bridge
man told the chairman that he would
not work during the rain. Some oth
er words were passed between them
and the bridge man finally told the
chairman that he was not working
for him or Lowndes county, but was
working for the bridge company.
Chairman Coffe 0 came (back to the
city and wired the bridge manufac
turers In Atlanta to send a man to
take his place. In a half an hour
a reply came that a man would be
hero this morning.
This morning Chairman Coffee met
the Georgia Southern and Florida
train and found tho new man there.
His name is Foster and he was im
mediately carried out to Troupe
ville and put In chaTge of the work.
The Inclement weather has caused
the river to rise some and it will
probably delay the work, but with
good weather the work could be com
pleted in a v*ry few days.
The new man seems to be very
obliging and the chairman of the
county commissioners thinks that he'
is much more competent than the
other man was. %

THIS SEASON

A LARGE FIRM FROM SAVANNAH

OFFICE HERE.
(From Tuesday's Dally.)
For the past four or flv® years, and
In fact for the paat twenty-live years,
Valdosta has been the leading sea
Island cotton market of the South.
This city has had the strongest buy
ers to bo found either In Georgia
or Florida. The city has Increased
its advantages along this line during
the past four or five years when new
firms have entered the field,
j The comJng season will find Val
dosta much stronger as a sea island
cotton market than it has ever been
before. There will be at least two
new buyers In the field and both of
them are buying for export and are
recognized as the leader* In that line.
Cannon and Ingiesby, of Savannah,
*iave a buyer here who will be active
ly in the market and will be a com
petitor for all the cotton brought
here.
Mr. T. H. Wethers haa several
large connections and has already
opened an office In the Strickland
building. He proposes to be in the
field and will make the other buyers
come up tight on all of the cotton
brought here. Bevrides these new
buyers all of the old buyers will be
In the market again this year. They
are B. F. Strickland and Company,
A. J. Strickland, Jones and Dasher,
Ray and Smith, Barton and Powell,
and L. W. Shaw.
With an array of buyers like this
In the market there Is no reason why
Valdosta should not establish & high
er record as a cotton market. The
receipts here this year ought to be
larger than ever before and the trade
of the city ought to be correspond
ingly largo.

Five negro convicts who were at
work with the bridgo gang near
Troupvllle made their escape ia»t
night by prizing open a bar to the
cage after getting loose from the
trap which they wore tried to In
tho enges.
Superintendent Taylor was not
with the gang last night, having gone
home to spend the night. It was Just
tho kind of night that convicts try to
make their escape. There was an al
most continuous rain, which drowned
out any noise that they might have
made In their efforts to get out. The
train also added to the darkness of
the night and mad© It difficult to de
tect them. {
The five negroes who escaped were
Lee Newberry, a negro who has es
caped before, but wbo came back and
,gave hlmwelf up after being absent

vis~ J 'Ml Williams end Gus Glascow,
the latter being a Ilf© time prisoner,
The first that was known of the
escape came in a telephone message
to Chairman Coffee about 3 o’clock
this morning from a police officer at
Thomasvllle. Sonny Hughes came
from that city and as soon as he got
out of his cage he.went back there,

The police officer* knew at once
that he was an escaped convict and

time he did and that the other*
might escape If they wanted to.

was evident that another one left
after Hughes did.

men who has been captured yet.
