The last issue of the Southwest Geor

The Georgia Southern.
Anything touching the progress and
prospects of this new and rapidly
growing system, since it is understood
that Thomasvillc will be one of its tor-
mini’s, is read with interest by our
people. The following from the Sa
vannah Daily Times, shows that pres
ident Sparks is preparing to compete
with the great central system nt Sa
vannah. That paper, in its last issue
says:
“The Macon Construction Company
is making every effort in its power to
get to work on a line to Savannah
before the Central gets fairly to work.
“Sparks will build to Savannah.
That is sure, lie appears to be co
operating with the Kansas City, Fort
Scott and Memphis Company, which
has a line from Kansas to Birming
ham. Mr. Sparks is now building
from Macon to Birmingham, and he
wants to start work within twenty
days to build from Macon to Savan
nah. Ilis constiuction company
stock is $10,000 a share, and some of
it has been bought here recently.
“He proposes to let the contract for
the Savannah extension just on the
preliminary line and before the road
is located. Contractors are required
to agree to grade the entire line from
Mncon to Savannah within six months
and to iron it in eight months from
the date of letting the contract. The
line Mr. Sparks has laid out starts
from a point on the Georgia Southern
nnd Florida, seven miles out of Ma
con, and runs in an air line to Dublin.
There a slight bend is made, and on
the line comes as straight ns it can be
buit to Savannah, and it will be near
ly forty miles shorter than the Cen
tral’s old line.”

Pear Trees in Sod.
My experience is that pear blight
is much less destructive where the
trees nre kept in sod, and the fertility
of the soil maintained by annual top
dressings. While I would not assert
that cultivation is the cause of blight,
I have no doubt that the tearing of
the roots during the season of rapid
growth leaves the tree in a weakened
condition, favorable to the spread of
fungoid growth. Years ago I grew
pcais in a piece of ground which was
annually heavily manured and culti
vated in vegetables. I noticed that
blight almost always followed to some
extent the deep'plowiug in midsum
mer, made necessary by second crops
following the early vegetables. I have
never known pear trees grown in prop
erly kept sod to he seriously injured
by blight. My experience is confirm
ed by a brother orcharilist, who states
that his pears in cultivated land were
larger and better looking than those
in sod, but those grown in sod were
finer flavored, ami that when the
blight swept through his cultivated
tree, those in the sod escaped alto
gether. But it will not do that, fruit
trees in sod should he neglected.
Their proper treatment will probably
be more expensive than cultivating
them. They shouitl have the grass
mowed as regularly as a lawn, hut
never removed, and should have an
annual dressing of hone dust and kai-
uit In other words the fruit crop
must be the only crop taken from the
land. — W. F. Macy, in Ex.
Anything touching the treatment of
pear trees will ho read with interest
by Thomas county pear growers. The
suggestions contained in the above
may be of some value to our growers.
We should lie glad to hear what they
think of the treatment outlined, and
also any other suggestions which grow
ers may sec fit to make. The indus
try is a most important one in this sec
tion, and all possible information and
iglit on the subject should lie given to
the public.

Worth Thinking About.
When you want a lawyer do yoa ask all
the attorneys their price, and then employ
the cheapest ? Do you not rather look for
the one whose skill and knowledge of law
will protect your interest?
Why not apply the same idea to othci
matters where confidence is a factor in your
dealings; for instance, in the purchase of a
hat or bonnet. It cannot be denied that
considering tpiali/// and price one lint may
be dear at one dollar, another cheap at five.
One bonnet dear at two dollars, another
cheap at ten. To decide the question of
cheapness we must consider:
1st. The standing of the establishment
which sells the hat.
2nd. The value as regards correct style
and nice finish, which all require in a hat.
3rd. Tae satisfaction given to others who
buy from the same house.
Now, we don’t pretend to keep the biggest
stock of bats, and the only nice hats, the
cheapest hats, and to sell at less than cost,
and all that sort of thing, but wc do claim
to sell you what you want and to guarantee
xath/arfion after you get it.
Some say “prices are high,” but all admit
they get more than was expected when the
hat is finished. Wc make it a point to let
no shoddy work go out from our store. If
a flower is needed here, a ribbon there, or
an ornament in another place, on it goes,
nnd nothing said of extra cost. The hat
must look nice, and so it does.
IIow happy we would be if we could only
get. the contractor to sprinkle the street in
front ot our store too. We have offered to
pay and to pay well—$1, $2, $3, $4, or any
thing reasonable—but it seems without
avail, and wc have to keep up an unceasing
fight on the dust, and trust to the clouds,
and far between.”

diate relief, and after using about half a
dozen bottles found himself well and has
