The last issue of the Southwest Geor gian fairly sparkles. Its editorials are brief nnd pointed, ami the local page teems with interesting paragraphs Cairo ought to give the paper a good support. 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.” [Sign of* the BIGr BOOT.

CURTRIGHT & DA-NTEL, 108 Broad St. 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. Mrs. L. 1\ Roberts left for the north yesterday. There will be a colored excursion to Jacksonville about to 20th. L. B. M. H. 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.” which arc Mrs. Jennie L.
