He knows your kinfolks, one. and all; He's almost your own kin; His uncle’s wife and your grandma Were pretty sisters twin. He either went to war and bled, Or else his daddy went; He's pulled tliobellcord'’cross tlio mule No idle time he’s spent. fje needs the plsco, his health Is broke He ean no longer work; Ha had a paralytic stroke And suffers from a Jerk.

The state executive committee will meet in Atlanta next Satur day for the purpose of naming the ! u date for holding the state primary j and arranging the rule* to govern I The iate W. C. Brann, of Waco, Tex., editor of the Iconoclast was | the autlicu of the following short essay on the ideal man: I “The plate to take the true measures of man is riot in the mar ket place, nor amen corners, nor field nor forum, but at His own fireside. There he luys aside his mask and you may learn whether he is an imp or un angel, king or cur, hero or humbug., I do'not care a copper what the world says of him, whether it crowns him with glory or pelts him with bud eggs. I do not care whut his re ligion may be. If his babies dread his coming home and his wife swal lows her heart every time she has to ask him fora five dollar bill, he is a fraud of the first water, even though prays night and morn ing until he is black in the face and shouts hallelujuh uriftl he he shakes the eteraai hills. But if the chil dren run to the,front gate to meet him, and love’s own sunshine illu minates the face of his wife when she hears his footsteps, you can take it for granted that he is pure gold—his home is in heaven, and the humbug never gets that near the throne ot God. He may be a rank atheist and a redflug anarchist, and a mormon a.mugwump; he may buy votes and bet on elections; he may deal from the bottom and drink beer until he can’t tell a silver dol lar from a circular saw, but still heiis infinitely better than the man who is all suavity but who makes his home a hell—who vents on the head of his helpless wife and chil dren the ill nature he would like to inflict on his fellow men, but/dure not. I can forgi ve much in that fellow mortal who had rather tnuke men swear than women wcap would rather have the hqte of the world than the contempt of his wife; who had rather call anger to the face of a king than fear the face of One of the most interesting features of a recent Farmer’s Institute was the discussion of corn'. It has been discovered that corn can be bred for different purposes, much as trees can be bred for different purposes It is well known that a dozen varie ties of apples may be 'grown upon a tree by budding and grafting, that horses may be bred for trotters, run ners or draft'at pleasure; and that cattle may be bred for beef and milk ers. It is nowj promised to breed corn that is full of oil for fattening purposes full of starch for starch making and full of alcohol for thje distilleries. This will be done'by careful select ing the seed that have the largest per cent of the quality desired. 'When this is done there will again be a care ful selection of the best seeds for the second seeding, and so on througli the , series of years. The result will be that in a few years the corn will be very strong in the qualities required. This is a new departure. Heretofore corn has simply been corn. The main idea in seeding being the selection of deep kernels and small cobs, to get as big a yield as possible. It is a great step in advance iq scientific farming —Vnldosta Times.
