Splint
“I have used
Sloan’s Liniment on
a fine mare for splint
and cured her. This
makes the third
horse I’ve cured.
Have recommended it to my neigh
bors for thrush and they say it is fine.
I find it the best Liniment I ever
used. I keep on hand your Sure
Colic Cure for myself and neigh
bors, and I can certainly recom
mend It for Colic.”—S. E. Smith,

Cured Thrush.
Mr. R. W. Parish, of Bristol,
Ind.,R. No. 3, writes:—"1 have used
lots of your Liniment for horses and
myself. It is the best Liniment in
the world. I cured one of my horses
of thrush. Her feet were rotten;
the frogs came out; she laid down
most of the time. I thought she
would die, but I used the Liniment
as directed and she never lies down
in the daytime now.”

FOR KIDNEY TROUBI *S
e BO Years o* t£s Market
Atlanta, Jan. 31.—In pointing out
method by which Georgia might se
cure funds with which to get even
with the state's public school teach
era. a well known lawyer the other
day called attention to the fact that
Oeorgia is the possessor of certain
property relative to which very lit
tie seems to be known.
It was suggested that this proper!
might he converted into cash for th
purpose of meeting the back pay
ments to the teachers, and there
would he no further necessity of this
and that governor making political
capital out of the situation.
Included in this property Is a note
for $107,000 given the state by the
Southern railway on which the state
receives 3 1-2 per cent Interest. Prob
ably there were not half a hundred
people In Georgia who knew that the
state held such a note. This note was
given the state in connection will
the purchase by the Southern of the
Northeastern railroad (from Athens
to Lula) whose bonds the state had
Indorsed, several -years ago, and It is
not due until 1915. Undoubtedly, how
ever, it would be easily convertible
Into cash.
The state also owns 186 shares of
the capital stock of the Georgia Rail
road and Banking Co., valued at $47,
244 which has been In Us possession
a quarter of a century; and
another like holding Is 440 shares of
the capital stock of the Southern and
Atlantic Telegraph Co., which Is In.
dorsed by the Western Union and on
which the slate receives dividends
amounting to $1,573 annually.
It was also stated that the state
owns 15,000 acres of land at Cusseta
Falls worth something like $100,000,
hut of this the treasury department
has no record.
From the Southern Railway note
and the stocks held by the state, how
ever, nearly a quarter of a million
dollars might be derived, which
would go a long way toward meeting
the emergency In connection with the
school fund.

FAMILY BARELY ESCAPED
FROM A BURNING ROUSE
Mr T. W. Dennington and Family Had Just Moved
Into Home at 180 Barber Street When Building
Was Burned. Lost Practically All Their
[Furniture and Clothing.
* !
(From Tuesday's Banner.)
The family living at 180 Barber
street consisting of -Mr. T. W, Den
nlngton, his wife and four children,
narrowly escaped death by cremation
lost night about twelve o'clock, when
the residence was burned.
. They lied from the burning building
In their night garments and lost
practically all their household effects.
The house was almost a complete
loss, and the fire department had
hard work to save the neighboring
houses which were situated close by
and several in number.
The building was a two-story struc
ture of wood owned by Dr. J. It. T,
McPherson of the faculty of the Uni
versity of Georgia, known as the
"Freeman old place,” and next door
to and within a few feet of the resi
dence of Mr. Ike Smith, manager of
the Postal Telegraph and Cable com
pany's offices here.
Mr. Dennington, who Is an expert
gardener, florist and nursery man,
has been living near the city and on
ly recently decided to move Into the
heart of Athens. He moved most of
his effects Monday Into the house on
Barber street. Tired with getting the
furnlturo moved and carried Into the
building the family had not had time
to Bet up much of tho furniture and
were sleeping on beds made by plac
ing mattresses on springs down on
the floor. Mrs. Dennington was awak
cned about eleven o’clock by the
crackling of the flames and the light
of the blaze which had burned Its
way from the upstairs room, where
It evidently originated, into the room
where she was sleeping. She roused
the others of the family and they
barely escaped from the house be
fore coals and burning timbers fell
through and on the beds in which
they had been sleeping. They did
not have time to save even a change
of clothing, but wrapped themselves
In such bed clothing as happened to
be at hand.
The alarm was turned in, but the
lire was not discovered even by the
inmates In time to save the house.
Practically everything belonging to
the family was destroyed. There was
not a dollar of Insurance on the con
tents, though there was insurance,
doubtless, on the building.
The family had been busy arrang
ing their goods and Mr. Dennington
was In the upstairs room just before
retiring. He had a lamp lighted there
but saw that It was out before lip
went to his room. The origin of the
Arc cannot be determined.
An advertisement has just been
placed yesterday In the Banner an
nouncing rooms for rent In the house
as the building was too large for the
family alone.
The firemen did excellent work and
only through their efforts were the
neighboring residences saved.

Wood From Elm Planted
By John Quincy Adams
Washington, Jnn. 31.—John Quincy
AdaniB, sixth president of the United
States, ts credited with planting an
American Kim In the white house
grounds during bis presidency. A
piece of one of the branches of this
elm has been furnished to the execu-
tlee committee of the Southern Com
mercial Congress by Col. Spencer
Cosby, U. S. A., In charge of public
buildings and grounds. From this
fragment of a historic tree will he
made the handle of the gavel to be
used by the chairman of the Southern
Commercial Congress at its meeting
In Atlanta, March 8, 9, and 10. The
head of the gavel will be made up of
sixteen pieces of wood, each piece
representing the forest wealth of one
of the sixteen southern states, united
In the work of the Southern Commer
cial Congress. These contributions of
wood have come In every case from
from the commissioner of agriculture
of each state, and are duly attested.
North Carolina made the first contrl
button, sending long leaf pine as her
representative wood. Georgia, Texas
and South Carolina have also contrib
uted long leaf pine. Kentucky and
West Virginia have sent oak; Mis
souri white oak, Maryland, chestnut;
Alabama, persimmon: Mississippi,
Magnolia;, etc. The slab on which
the gavel will rest Is to be of Geor
gia marble, suitably Inscribed. The
contribution of wood from the White
house is significant, for It will unite
the Southern states, the natjon’s cap
Ual and the memory of the great New
England president In a gavel whose
raps are expected to lead to"a new
union of the South along business
lines for the purpose of building a
greater nation through a greater
South.
Individuals in the 7,200 national
hanks of the Uulted States decreased

Of that sum, more than $158,000,000
was withdrawn from the thirty-nine
national hanks of New York city.

ALL DRUGGISTS.
In last nights' Atlanta Journal
there Is a leading editorial In warm
support of the excellent work now-
being prosecuted by the school of
agriculture of the University
Georgia. The Journal says;
In Its movement to organize boys
con clubs the State College of Agrl
culture should have the co-operation
of teachers and business men as well
ar, farmers. Each day last week one
of these clubs was formed. At this
rate It will not be long before every
county in Georgia has Its own band
of boys at work, heartily and effec
tively, for the development of a great
staple crop.
That Is an end most earnestly to
be desired. The growth and prosper
ity of this state rests primarily upon
Its agricultural Interests. Whatever
we. as a people, have or, as a com
monwealth, become. Is stored in the
soil. For Industry and commerceare
after all only the utilization of the
products of the earth.
Every citizen, therefore. In every
community has cause to be Interest
ed In this movement which purposes
to enlist the boys of the state In the
cultivation of corn, or years past wo
have talked a great deal about tlio
Importance of diversified crops, tho
Importance of rnlslng more grain In
Georgia In order that we may not ho
solely dependent on cotton. The boys
com club Is a definite and practical
step toward the accomplishment of
this design. If within the next half
decade two thousand boys can he
truly Inspired with an Interest In the
production of corn, Georgia w-111 be
come one of the greatest grain states
In the entire union.
The work of organizing corn clubs
among the boys should enlist the aid
of county school commissioners and
teachers because each of these clubs
Is vitally educational In Its Influence,
rt supplies a specific field of Interest
for Its members and enables the pu
pil to witness in actual results the
outcome of his mental and manual
labor. Indeed, It would he an excel
lent thing, were It practicable, for
such clubs to be Tormed In city ns
well as In country schools.
Boards of trade and chambers of
commerce that are near farming ter
ritory should lend their active 'en
couragement to the success of these
com clubs. A number of boards of
trade have already done so, with the
realization that the advancement of
the town depends upon the develop
ment of the surrounding country. Bus
iness men may well afford to offer
prizes to the boy who produces the
best acre or half acre of com.
The farmers themselves are most
vitally concerned In this movement
and their response has been particu
larly cordial. The surest way to keep
a boy at home and to Imbue him with
genuine pride and interest In the
farm Is to give him an Independent
part In Its affairs. This can be done
great extent by making him a
member of bis county's com club, and
by helping him in bis efforts to excel
among his boy competitors.
The State College of Agriculture Is
now In the midst of this Important
work. Let Its officials have the warm
est co-operation of every community
to which they go.

addressed to them In the Interest of
the furtherance of the work of the
