BACKACHE
MISS LUCY ANNIE REISER, OF MINNEAPOLIS, MINN.
Miss Lacy Annie Helper, a graduated nurse of nine years’ experience, trained
and graduntfd from the Homeopathic Hospital of Minneapolis,Minn., writes
follows :
Albert Lea, Minn., Nov. 8, 1899.
The Peruna Medicine Co., Columbus, Ohio:
Qentlemen—••Although my school does not believe In patent medicines, I
have found It to be a fact that Peruna Is a grand and valuable medicine. I
have known It to cure Mrs. Sampson, suffering with an Inflamed womb, aggra
vated by malaria, after the doctors had failed to help her. Another of my
former patients suffered with a complication of female diseases; she was so
thin, nothing but skin and bones, but Peruna cured her and she is to-day In
good health and good flesh. Facts prove that Peruna revives lost strength
and restores to the sick that most wonderful blessing of life, health. ”
Lucy Annie Heiser.
From Mrs. Amanda Shumaker, who has charge of the Grammar Department
of the Public Schools,of Columbia City,
Wash., also Past Grand of Independent
Order of Good Templars. Dr. Ilatman
received the following letter:
Columbia City, Wash.
I eat) speak only good words of the
repeated benefits 1 have had from the
use of Peruna.
Too constant application to work
last winter caused me to have severe
head and backache and dragging pal nr.
I could not stop my work, neither was
I fit to go on. Reading of the ber.e-
ficlal results from the use of Peruna I
purchased a bottle and within a few
days after using It, began to feel better.
I constantly improved and before the
seventh bottle was completely used, all
pains were gone, my strength was re
stored, and 1 now seem ten years'
younger.
“If I get tired or feel bad, Peruna at
once helps me, and I feel you deserve
praise for placing such a conscientious
medicine before a suffering public.”

' W0OL5ON SPICB CO., TOLEDO, OHIO.
Agricultural Department,
Atlanta, Sept. 10, 1001.
In Yiaw of the crop oondition of the
west and the northwest it behooves the
farmers of Georgia and the south gen
erally to allow no waste upon the farm.
Many of our people depend in great
measnro upon western hay. Bnt so un
favorable has been the condition iu the
west throughout the entire season of
1001 that their dependence will prove n
broken reed. In other seasons hay which
cost $5 or $0 dollars a ton iu the west,
ern market, sold iu Georgia, by reason
of transportation, at from $13.00 tc
$15.00 a ton. The present season has
been so unfavorable, that western buy
brings on the farm where it is grown
aud mowed $10.00 a ton. Now the
farmer, judging by the past, can make
his own calculation as to what western
hay will cost him by tho time itreachei
the Georgia market, Iu view of this he
must see the necessity of supplying the
needs of hi9 stock from his own farm.
Every mower should bo put to work al
onco, or, if the farm is not eqnipped
with snob an implement, bring the hand
■cy the into active play. Every available
blade of grass should bo cut. Gathei
in the crab grass, crow-foot and wire
grass. Gut nil tho Bermuda on yout
place, aud fail not in utilizing all your
pea vinos. Mow also the swamp grnsseii
and all the broom sodge, that is not too
far matured to be used for hay. Though
tho two laBt named do not make the best
hay, they are better than no hay, or
than paying excessive rates for the
western article. If a shredder is to he
had, have yonr cornstalks shredded and
stored away. Make good use of yonr
cane. Let nothing escape your uotioc
that can be used for food for your stock.
This is a time which puts to the se
verest test a farmor’s scientific knowl
edge and ability to make his farm o
success.
This is no time for a man because of
the difficulties that beset him to fold
his hands and, saying, "all is lost!”
give up tho fight. Though in many
sections cotton has been seriously dam-
aged and the corn crop is below the
average, minor crops, such as peas and
potatoes, are doing well.
Some report the fields overrun with
grass. Cut all that grass and turn ii
into hay. Use all means to avoid the
loss of any part of auy product that can
be stored away for the nso of man or
beast.
The cry of disastrous drouth over a
Urge section of the Union is, alas! too
true. A short grain And grass crop in
the west menns high grain and moat to
the southern farmer who doeB not raise
his own supplies. Will Georgia farm
ers, under these conditions, allow their
barns to remain empty, while the fields
are covered with valuable native grasses
which can now be saved and housed at
a nominal cost? Or will they wait un
til next spring and pay tweuty to twen
ty-five dollars per ton for western hay ?
okt ready for your winter crops.
As soon as the grasses and peavine*
have been cut and stored away for hay
begin to get yonr fields ready for oats,
barley, rye, wheat, clover and the pe
rennial grasses.
In the upper half of the cotton belt
September is the proper month for seed
ing all these except wheat, the sowing
of which can be deferred until after the
first frost. Early seeding guards against
the greatest dangers to these crops, viz:
winter killing and spring drouths. The
former of these perils is avoided by sow
ing in time for the pUnts to become
deep-rooted aud strong before the win
ter freezing. The spring drouths do not
prove disastrous to early-seeded crops,
since they have time to mature aud are
ready for tho harvost before the drouth
secs iu and before the moisture, that
had accumulated during the winter, has
been exhausted.
An early oat crop rarely fails except
from winter killing. This crop should
be put upon good laud liberally fertil
ized. We do not deem it necessary to
plow in oats very deeply, provided they
follow a crop that has been well culti
vated during the year. Two inched
wonld be sufficiently deep, aud they
should be plowed in with a cultivator
or short turning plow It is best to seed
heavily, thus allowing for the loss of
some grain by freezes.
We regard barley a most admirable
crop for early spring grazing, valuable
both in contributing to the health of
stock and in the saving of corn and
fodder. An acre of barlev well fartil.
fted will feed two males for five or six
weeks. Ou thinner land yon can seed
rye, which will nlways grow aud make
a good-paying green food crop. While
not the best feed, it is reliable, always
coming in when most ueeded. Colonel
James M. Smith of Oglethorpe county
•aid that he would hardly know how tc
farm without raising barley and rye for
spring feeding. The various vetches
and clover, red, crimson or burr, are
aseful aud should be seeded down this
month.
We wonld not advise every farmer to
plant all of these for winter crops. This
is a matter of choice to be determined
by surrounding conditions; but no farm
er can afford to be without them.
THE PROFITS OF RICE CULTURE.
Although there is so muob land in
Georgia salted to the profitable cultiva
tion of rice, there has been a great fall
ing off in its production in tnis state
dnring the last few years. And yet
there is no more profitable crop than
rioe for some sections of onr state, es
pecially along the seaboard. We are
indebted to Oswald Wilson, iu the Sep
tember number of the Southern Farm
Magzaine, for some valuable informa
tion concerning this important cereal
The average value per aore of rioe
is $80.00, loss tho cost of irrigation,
which amounts to about $0.00. Accord
ing to the reports of the Unitod States
census the average value per acre of
corn in 1000 was $9.02; of wheat, $7.01;
of oats, $7.08.
The three great staple crops of the
world, corn wheat and oats, have an ag
gregate production of more than 8,500,
000,000 bushels and a market value of
nearly $3,940,070,000. The production
of rice is 74,074,809,108 pounds valued
at $2,902,974,781. It is tho principal
diet of 800,000,000 people, or more than
64 per cent of the entire population of
the world.
Although rico has boon grown iu the
United States from tho earliest period
of our history, it is only of late years
that it has reached much development.
Iu Louisiana and Texas rico culture has
become a groat industry with a capital
of $5,000,000 invested iu 100 canals,
1,600 miles iu extent and capable, under
present water conditions, of flooding
800,000 acres.
The consumption of rice in the United
States is increasing steadily, and there
is growing demand for it. Hence there
is very little danger of over-production.
Wherever the conditions are favorable
will it not be profitable to pay more at
tention to the cultivation of this great
cereal?
Abundance of wholesome food for our
people should be one great aim of the
agriculturists of our state, aud rice is
already one of the principal articles of
diet iu almost every Georgia home.
THE MEAN'S OF INDEPENDENCE.
We have at our command the means
of independence in our soil, adapted to
the cultivation of every product of the
temperate zone and to some of those of
the tropics. There is no need for us to
go west for our corn and wheat, onr
hay and meat. We can produce thorn
all at home, and with our great money
crop, ootton, as a surplus, be not only
self-sustaining, but, in common with
the farmers of other southern states,
become the wealthiest agrionltnrists of
the world. O. B. Stevens, Oom’r.
