The center of population of the
United States is now near Indianapo
lis, Ind. Every census shows this cen
ter to be moving 9teadily westward.
Cotton will be a short crop this year,
but Polk oounty farmers can get n
good price for it by handling it with
care and then bringing it to Cedar-
town, where our cotton factories will
pay through their buyers the highest
market price for it.
The annual re-union of the Georgia
Confederate Veterans will be bold at
Augusta, November M-16-lflth. The
low rate of one cent pel- mile for the
Veterans and their friends on all rail
roads ill Georgia,will give the veterans
from every section of the state an op
portunity to assemble together, bring
ing their friendsuwith them.
The Southern Railroad is doing a
good work for the South by advertising
the varied resources of the sections
which it traverses, Polk county being
among the number. The Manufac
turer’s Record says i .
The announcement comes , from
Paris that the Southern Railway Co.
lias been awarded two grand prizes
and two silver medals for its exhibits
at the exposition. These awards, the
grand prizes being the highest award
given nt the exposition, indicate that
the exhibits made by tho Southern
Railway are most attractive and typi
cal of the enterprise which that pro
gressive system lias demonstrated in
the South. The grand prizes were
awarded the company for its exhibit
of Southern products in tile United
States agricultural department, and
for its forestry annex.”
Rest Crop In tlio Pouch Orchard.
What are tho host crops that can be
grown in a poach orchard without mate
rial injury to the trees?
Ans. Cotton, canteloupes, sweet potu-
toes and peas. It is not desirable to plant
corn or any grain crop iu an orchard.
Cotton is, perhaps, by far the best crop
to grow in an orchard. It practically
insures a good cultivation for the trees
almost throughout the season, just what
they lieod. No good farmer will fail to
cultivate his cotton crop, but he may
neglect his trees.
When pons are planted iu nil orchard
they should be planted iu drills and
cultivated so that tho trees will not
suffer for cultivation. Never sow poas
'woadcast ill au orchard aud thus pre
sent cultivation.
Those crops may be profitably grown
with the trees only for the first two or
three years. No crop should he grown
iu ail orchard after the third year.—

ESTIMATE FOR lOOO.
Hon. O. B, Stevens,the able Commis
sioner of Agriculture for Georgia, has
compiled an estimate of the cotton crop
for 1000, and after careful review and
revision by tho Agricultural Commis
sioners of tho Southern states, tho fol
lowing has boon given out as their esti
mate for this season:—
"Based upon reliable information
from oil sources from caoh of the cotton
states and territories, taking into oon
sidcration tho oonditiou of tho ootton
orop.I am led to believe that the follow
ing will bo tho output of tho orop for
tho Besson of 1000 and 1001:
“Alabama, 821,000; Arkansas, 800,000;
Florida, 80,000; Georgia, 1,025,000; In
dian Territory, 210,000; Louisiana, 808,
000; Mississippi, 848,000; Missouri, 80,
000; North Carolina, 405,000; Oklahoma,
100,000; South Carolina, 801,000; Ten
nessee, 285,000; Texas, 8,800,000; Vir
ginia, 18,000; other sources, 500. Mak
ing a total of 0,804,500.
“ThiB estimate, however, issubjeot to
the weather condition for the month of
September, and also killing frosts later

Hon. John W. AInddox delivered
some sound Democratic doctrine to
tile voters at Koekinnrt last Saturday
afternoon. The senrohlight that lie
threw upon the famous trust docu
ment of tile Rev. “P. Sammy" Jones
wns a whole speech within itself, and
judging from the applause that came
from the audience, it would seem that
the opinions of "Sammy” were of but
little nccount.
The Republican “brethren" are pre
dicting dire disnster to the country in
the event that Hon. William J. Bryan
is elected president, but we can’t see
how it could be worsted, taking into
consideration the fact that the pres
ent administration lias cornered on
everything in sight, and lots that was
only visible to the eye of the favored
few. Bi.uk Jay.

Questions Answered.
Is there any objection to planting!
pouch trees ou newly cleared laud?
Ans. In my opinion newly cleared
land should never be planted in peach
trees if other good peaoh laud is availa
ble. Laud should be cultivated at least
two years after clearing before planting
it in orchard.
The reason: New land cannot bo prop
erly prepared for the reception of tree!
on aceouut of the roots of tho forest
trees. Thorough proparatiou of tho
ground before piaiitiug is oue of tho
essential factors in fruit growing. Deep
preparations before planting aud shallow
cultivation afterwards is the rule.
Furthermore, trees planted ou now
land are subjoot to tho nttacks of Ter
mites or “wood-lioo,” as they are com
monly known to tho fruit grower. Thoso
insects breed'in great numbers in de
caying roots of forest troos and when
fruit trees are planted iu now land they
fall nu easy prey to these "wood-lioe,”
which attack the roots and tho base of
tho tree. Tho remedy for “wood-lice”
is tobacco dust. Tlio dirt should be re
moved from the base of tho tree and a
baud full of tobacco dust applied aud
the dirt thrown back.
It is not a liniment, nor a salve.
Contains no grease or ammonia. A
pleasant stainless liquid. A rational,
scientific, chemical compound. Dr.
Ticlienor’s Antiseptio stands pre-emi
nently superior to any remedy offered
the public for healing wounds, boms
and other injuries. Used internally
it is line tiling for colic and bowel
troubles.
