There is an apple tree in Ra-
bnn county that is probably the
largest on the continent It shades
the greater part of a farm yard,
and in one season tho owner
gathered 210 bushels of apples
from it, besides what his stock
destroyed. He receives 25 cents
per pnshel for them.
Last week Joe Brown voted in
the Senate to reduce the revenue
on whiskey to fifty cents per gal

Congress will adjourn Satur

donate upon the "tariff bill," and
really but little has been accom

Once upon a time, when tho

these old red hills of Georgia,
and these old tottering sires of
ours, now left to tell us of them,
were just gaining a foothold
among them in these wierd for
ests, this little plant nourished,
and could be found iu abundance.
Bnt now, like the red man, it has
disappeared, and can you tell
why* No, well, we’ll answer for
you. "Poor Lo" exterminated it,
gathering every plant that could
be fonnd and bartering it at the
trading {posts 'for "fire water," etc
From this country it w.is export

it seems practical to us if some
enterprising man would take hold

wou'd realize in a short white

any other crap. Ginseng is worth

it will grow right along. Plant

The county was settled up by
the hardy sons of toil who rap

We have now about thirty rlilT

may have a greater diversity if

will pay their debts, so wliat is
there to stop the car of progress?
In this .brief sketch wo. could

able to intersperse it with any of
