Ladies, give them a call The most impressive argument will not some itnes convince. Frank Gann, in illustration • f a proposition at the debate the oth er night, said: “Now, Mr. Pres ident, the fact is so plain I know you can understand it.,‘tho’ a fool” It is needless to bay Frank’s side lost. The cool winds. linVfc some what checked the fishing fever of too boys for tlie present. Changes in real estates still go on in Dallas, and prices are ruling high on gilt edge in the Vicinity of the square. Mr. Stroll of Florida, has recently purchas ed of Mr, James Bullock that neat 'new cottage on Cartersville St., iiow occupied by Mrs. Shaokl ford Friend Davis’s long leaf pine 'measured in nil 178 feet instead of 130, as the types made us say in hist Weeks Era. Since the pub lication of the item we h-iVi met Henry Davis, of Vinton & Divis, at or near the station at the Tun nel, and Mr Davis says that the report is correct in the main, Ordinary T.

All are invited. Reserved seats for the ladies, aud tlie best of order will be enforced ” Go Ahead With Your Rat Killing. ft r. Enoch W. Pool killed four- hundred and eighty rats las Wo k. during a regular battle with the rodents. They fought! like blazes, but Mr. Fool cattfe out winder, aud tliete were besides killed any number of woundod that escaped. t Pool turned their carcases into goad Use, he fertilized two rows of cotton across a tan aefe field. Fine Wheat.—Our friend, Mr. Cicero Pool, of California Dist., has one pa'Ch of the fiuest wheat that perhaps lefts ever come to notice before at this season of the year. The area consists of about one acre, and the soil is that peculiar to that section of Pauld ing conftty, a deep mulatto or Walnut colored soil. The only fertilizers used is stable manure, tlie stand is very good, and nt this early season is begiuniug to head. Die height is about the waist of a tall man uniformly all over it. The wheat is oily black iu appearance, impenetra bly thick, heading out well, and will certainly, as estimated by many, yield not less than fifty bushels, Mr. Pool ootained the seed from Missouri, and it is of the red variety. The delegates of the several Sunday schools in Paulding county met at tlie Baptist church on last Saturday for the purpose of organ izing a County Sunday School association.

The crowd was immense, 8 upp sed to be five or six hun- pred, but good order prevailed du ring the day. It was reported that there was two meu lying near by dfuuk, asleep; they were woke up and they came and said they were just sleeping and not drunk. Look out boys, it is hot healthy to bring red eye to a church house. Farmers are harrowing their cotton to get a-stand. Mrs f* M. Hart is verv sick. Dr. T. J. Foster paid her a visit. We suggest that some olio es tablish a coal yard iu Dallas, it would be beneficial to the sur rounding country and it would be profitable* We will say to Big Ike in re gard to the schools of our coun ty, the school iu our vicinity is profitable, because it lias some duration and the right man in the right place* We do object to the ; present school law in the way it is managed. There could be a better system to govern our school fund that would be more profitable to all. The present system does not profit the pool class of peoplo but little, and why, I because it is of but short dura- ' tion; abetter plan is desirable, ltcv. W. W.

The Nineteenth lias ourainly spoken plainly on tho fence ques tion by a vote of one hundred to one in favor Of fence. Tlie peoplo are nbottt done planting cotton.

The Nineteenth, situa ted as she is between two rail roads, just in hearing of the whistles of both, and out of the way of tramps, with good water mid steam mills sufficient to sup ply all demands, with good aver age—and some above average lands of our country anywhere, 1 see no reason why she should not move ou'Vard ult'.il she ranks as first-cl Rite in all that it takes to build up a community. A few more words and X will quit. The Nineteenth is plagued witfi more rats than ever was known before. Uncle Audrew Mi* Brayer says he wonld not mind making corn if it was nut for them When the boys laugh at him for the plague that is sent on hi in in his old days ho turns the joke by saying Unit it is a mighty good sign there is plenty made there to feed them on. They go rat kill ing down there occasionally aud kill great piles of them, some of which if seen up a tree by squirrel hunters mould be shot at for squirrels.
