From a news stand point the At lanta D ily Constitution is equal, if not superior to any paper in the United States, or in the world so fa,, as we know. Of course we might say this as a matter of stale pride, 'out it is an rctual fact, .lust take a leading New York paper, if you will, and compare it with the Constitution nrd see diffi r etice! It may be sty U hto print a paper in little blivry type that cannot he rend, but we like the clean, clear cut, bold print of the Constitution. No wonder Atlanta is rapidly be coming the most important of South ern cities with a great paper like the Constitution to battle for her ad vaneement.

Of the number who were on the roll last year 136 have died or moved from the stat and their places have been fliled. There are now on file 300 applications for invalid pen sions, Of the indigent roll of pensions about 250 more c -n he paid out of the funds on hand.

Will Declare a Boycott, hhe natnotic women of some of the Northern cities are talking about tak ing steps to the end of making France aware of their displeasure in the event that she persist in her fiiendly alti tude towards Spain as“ against the United Slates. They declare that in the cvcll of E'ranee doing anything prejudicial to the interests of the United States in the wa, they v il quit buying French millinery, dresses, silks, confections, and other French articles which are so popular with w'oman-klud. 1111?. would involve a loss of trade to F.ance approximating $50,000,000 a year. Then there are French wines, cordials and table deli cacies which woulc also come tinder the ban, and which would swell the total of trade lost by' a good many more millions of dollars. France, therefore, is in a rather uncomfortable position. Her people own millions and millions of dollars worth of Span ish bonds, which will he greatly de preciated by Spain’s losing che fight; yet if she takes action calculated to conserve the value of the bonds, the American women say they' will quit buying her bonnets and gowns.

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 ban 's on .lie streets and go up stairs as a mass of business men for good ouiy. Albert J. Cash. The People Party Met The People’s Party met in Homer on Mf.y 6th pursuant to a call by the Chairman of th f • cutive committee of the People’s Party of Banks c an tv "ud after the object of the nict'mg - .i” explained being explained by the chairman, which was for the pur pose of nominating a Senator for tbe 33rd S catonal Dis’t-, and Represen tative for tbe county, and county of ficers, and other purposes. But owing to a misunderstanding among many of the Populists as to tbe time ot meeting to nominate the various officers that business wits post poned until the 28th day of May 1898. Motion canied that tbe secretary communicate with the chairman of Populist party in the several Malitia districts of the county, and to request them to call a mass meeting of the Popu'ists in tbeir respective districts and from among their members send five delegate to Honer on Saturday (28th) before tbe fifth Sunday in May 1898 to in convention for tbe purpose of nominating Representative and county officers. Mr. J. M. Odell was elected as one of the executive committeemen of the Otli Congressional district, which is to meet at gainesville Ga. on Tuesday May 17th 1898 for the purpose of fix ing the lime and place of holding the nominating convention for congress mar of tins district and such other business as may come before that body.

One after another had tried to break it hut failed. “ ’ll mas ter it, ” said the nxe; and his blew.-' fell heavily on the iron. “Leave it to me said the saw and with his relentless teeth, he worked hidk ward and forward on its surface until they were all wosn down, and broken he fell aside. ‘An h. 1 ’ said the hammer, “I ku < w you wouldn’t succeed. I’ll show you the way.” But at the fierce dlow, off flew his head, and the. iron remained as b. fori” “Shall I try!” asked the small soft flame. They nil despised the flame; but he curled gently around the iron’em braced it, and nevea left it, until it melted under his irresistible.inflnenee. There are hearts hard enough to resist the force of wrath, the uialioe of persecution and the fury of pndt> so as to make their acts recoil on the adveisaries; hut the v e is a power stronger than any of these; hard in deed is the heart that oan tesist love. 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.

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 haps a thrashing tbrowu_, in.—“ Life of Joseph Arch.” Chilly. “Poor papa!” said Ethel. “He has a dreadful cold.” “Must have caught it while sitting by himself, M said Chollio, who knew how frigid the old gentleman could be when he tried.—Loudon Tit-Bits. The siege of Troy was mostly a myth.
