To The Three Political Parties
Fruit, Ga.; May 2 1898.
Mr. Ei i runs:
Would you be so kind
ns io allow me to offer a suggestion to
the three political parties in Banks as
to how they should unite to put out
the candidates for all the officers of
the county. In the first place I leant
the Populist will meet theCth of May;
.ho Democrats 6th of Jure. Now if
I: P. pulist meet the Gin let all the
leading Democrats m et with them, ag
their meeting comes first, and ask a
luture day be set, say the 15th or 20th
of May, that will be near enough u i I
way to [give all the parlies notice.
Let us in Banks become one people
because in union there is strength,
and in division there is not only
weakness, but corruption, such as
should not be perpetrated and shown
to the rising generation. Better rec
ords should be left, so to begn that
new record, I as a citizen, will offer
this [ rogram, first as it is Banks turn
to put out the Senator let the Demo
ei-ats have that candidate, then let
the other two sides have the Retire
scntaiive, then let the convention di
vide the other part of the ticket equal
Why? For more reasons than I will
stop to give, hut I will give this much
as one; it will keep of such crimes as
arc perpetrated with whisky and in
buying votes, and causing men who
have r.o interest in the government
from saying lam for sale how much
for my vote and influence? And many
others I will not ask space to mention
as evei o e are familiar with them;
but the greatest reason is to get what
the people need as laws. In doing
this all Populist and Republicans will
vote for the Democrats and they will
vote for the others, hence harmony of
the people begins. Then what? Then
if tile fellow who has been selling fails
to vote no one is hurt- \\ hat next?
Call anoth :r convention an j draft bills
to be introduced to become laws, at
the Lands of your Representatives,
then they know what the people want,
The people know what they will get.
This would bring the people in close
contact with each other, and all would
feel more interested in good being
done, Our government would not
then be despotic as it is now. I trust
rdl who may see this will think it over
and talk it to bis friends in an ericottf.
aging wav, and more said about it
from all sides of politics at the con
vention, all leave with a smite shake

“Leave it to me said the saw and

To Develop Tomatoes Evenly anti Give
Them a Uniform Color.
Question. Although I have suc
ceeded in raising very large crops of to
matoes, I have had great difficulty in
ripening them uniformly, and while
some are smooth and evenly developed
a large per cent are rough and uneven,
which, of course, injures their market
qualities. If you can give me some
hints to enable me to overcome tbeso
drawbacks, I will be greatly obliged.
Answer.—While tomatoes will grow
and produce abundantly on any medium
soil, there is one essential to their suc
cessful cultivation, and that is very
thorough preparation. If the land is
subsoiled so much (he better, and it
should then br harrowed and rehar
rowed until not a lump remains. It is
not necessary to broadcast the manure
if a complete commercial fertilizer, with
a preponderance of potash and phos
phoric acid, is used. Use a handful of
this, a handful of wood ashes and a
tablespoonful of nitrate of soda to each
plant, being careful to mix thoroughly
with the soil, and to prevent any of
these ingredients touching the plant.
After the plants are set, that is in two
or three days, give them a thorough
working with the harrow, or cultivator,
and, of course, the weeds are to be kept
down throughout the growing season.
When the fruit begins to set repeat the
application of fertilizer. By this plan
the plants are strong and stocky and the
fruit abundant and evenly developed.
Stable manure may be used, but it
should bo thoroughly decomposed, made
fine and mixed with the soil. If the
plants are troubled with insect enemies
they should be sprayed according to the
directions we have frequently given.—
State Agricultural Department.
To Utilize Wet Land.
Question. — I have some wet land
which is v -ry rich, hut 1 have never
been able to cultivate it with success.
C; n yon advise me as to what plan I
shall pursue to get the best return from
il? It generally dries off some time
in May.
Answer. —There are two or three
plans hv which you can make such land
profitable, but the foundation of each is
thorough preparation. As soon as it is
dry enough to be worked, plow it, that
is, break it up deeply and thoroughly
and harrow until smooth. Now sow it
in peas, some upright variety which can
be cut for hay. When these are taken
off plow and harrow again and set in
Bermuda grass. It will make a perma
nent pasture, or royal hay. Some of
the finest Bermuda hay is produced on
just such lands in this state.
Another plan, which we have seen
highly recommended, is the following:
After the preparatory plowing and
harrowing, keep down the weeds by
harrowing cnee a week until the mid
dle of June, theii sow in millet, a bushel
to the acre if grown for seed, a bushel
and a half if grown for liay—the Ger
man millet if the seed is to he used, the
Hungarian if for hay. When this crop
is taken off go over the field two or
three times with a cutaway harrow in
opposite directions so as to thoroughly
break up the surface. Repeat this op
eration every week or ten days until the
middle of September, and then sow
timothy at the rate of a third of a
bushel to the acre, with koO pounds of
fertilizer, harrowing it in lightly. By
either plan you will have a permanent
meadow, which can be grazed or cut as
you prefer—State Agricultural Depart
ment.
Effect of Mineral Mam res.
Question.— Do mineral manures tend
to e,xliaust the nitrogen in the soil?
Answer. —The mineral manures ena
ble the plants to make use of the nitric
acid that is in tho soil. Indeed, if they
are absent, the crops cannot take up this
nitric acid, no matter how great the
amount that is diffused through the soil.
Therefore the mineral manures cannot
he strictly said to exhaust the nitrogen,
for although they cause the plants to
take up a larger amount than they other
wise would, this does not increase the
exhaustion, as the the minerals only ar
rest and hold for the use of the crops
that which would otherwise be washed
away.—State Agricultural Department.

Two men tolled sido by side from sun to bud,
And both were poor;
Both Hat with children when tho day was dona
About their door.
One saw the beautiful in rriinaon cloud
And shining moon;
Tho other, with hid bond in sadness bowed,
Made night of noon.
Ono toyed euch tree and flower and singing

On mount or plain;
No music in tlu: soul of ono was stirred '
By leaf or rain.
One saw the good in every fellow luun.
And hoped the best;
Tho other marveled at his master’s plan,
And doubt confessed.
One, having heaven above and heaven below ;
Was satisfied;
The other, discontented, lived In woe,
Aiul hopeless died.

A VANITY BOOK.
Personnl Record Keeping 1Y It one Interest
Excuses ItH Vanity.
In the beginning one’s pnronts must
bo tho authors, or if the parents will
not then some devoted aunt may win
for herself the warmest thanks in year"
to come. When Heart’s Delight came
to earth some 15 years ago, a substan
tial volume was bought to he her book.
Into this went first the genealogy of the
family on father’s and mother's sides as
far as there was knowledge of it. Pho
tographs of great-great-grandparents,
grandparents and parents were inserted.
The wedding dress of the paternal
grandmother was shown by a small
piece, and the maternal side was rich
with bits of the wedding dresses of
mother, grandmother and great-grand
mother. Photographs of father and
mother at tho time of (heir marriage
and when Heart’s Delight was born
wero also added. To these were added
one of the house and the room which
the little maid made blessed by her
coming. The announcement card went
in and letters written for her welcome.
Mamma wrote a description of the won
der, aud papa took her photograph.
Ail this was for the beginning, hut
as mouths went on there was more to
chronicle. Baby’s ways, tbe coming of
her first tooth, her first word and when
it was spoken, when she began to creep
aud then to walk —all these were re
corded. Into tho book went, too, such
treasures as the first sock, the first lit
tle shoe, a piece of her first colored
dress. Everything of whatever kind
that marked a beginning found a per
manent place in the Vanity Book, and
the story of the child’s life mny be read
therein.
As the child developed the character
of the items naturally changed. When
she went to school, her early efforts sup
plied more material, sometimes in the
shape of school work and sometimes a9
stories of childish temptations or griefs
and joys. Heart’s Delight’s first letter
is entered in the book.
There aro so many tokens here that
are treasures, more valuable as they
grow older. Tho first invitation to a
party, tho first theater programme, and
with this are other programmes of
those things which have impressed the
child. Her first party dress, ot course,
was shown in tho book. Throughout tho
book aro photographs of Heart’s De
light herself as she grew toward girl
hood and of tire girls and boys who
were her friends.
Long ago tho bookmaking fell into
the hands of the girl herself, and she
adds to it all that points to the story
she is making. Everything of pleasure,
of special benefit in her life, is to bo re
called from this book, and even now
she prizes it above all her possessions.
What will it b3 to her when she is 50?
What will it ho worth to her son cr
daughter when someone writes "Finis”
to it fer her? What wonld you not give
for such a book left you by your mother
or father? It would be worth more than
money.
There is a great deal of pleasure to be
found in making such a book for oneself,
though if one begins it after childhood
he loses much that went into the little
one’s book. It will become filled, how
ever, with the important things of life,
each making these for himself. A vani
ty book is one of tho best things in tho
world to show how one’s ideas of values
change and how life’s horizon expands.
It records a life with some of those
which preceded it and gave it its beat
and those which accompanied and de
veloped it. Though it may be vanity,
it is yet a vanity with a lesson. —New
York Sun.
Tkl Apfle Dumpling.
Apple chungting day was a red letter
one in my boy’s calendar. When X had
such a da+nty bit in my bag, it seldom
staid there many minutes. Although I
had dispatched a hearty breakfast before
starting, out would come the dumpling.
“Just to have a look at it and to see if
it is as big as mother generally makes
them,” I would say to myself. Then I
would turn it about and admire its size.
From handling the dainty to tasting it
was a sure process. "I’ll have one lit
tle bite, only a nibble, ” I would say.
When I had got my tooth into that
dumpling, Adam with his apple wasn’t
in it. It was a case of once bitten soon
gone. Then I would hurry on to mako
up for my dawdling with only tho
hunk of barley bread in my wallet, the
joys of the dumpling behind me, and
before me tho day’s drudgery, with per

The siege of Troy was mostly a myth.
According to Homer’s own figures, if
there ever was such a man as Homer,
Helen must have been at least 00 years
of age when she first met Paris, and
even in tho heroic period of the world
women of that age were a trifle passe.
