HOW TO CROW
FINE WHEAT.
Experience of Farmers at Wheat
Convention.
SPEECH OF HARVEY JORDAN.
Advocates Cotton Grower* Pro
tectlves Association—Best Meth
ods of Preparing Wheat.
In his speech delivered before the
Wheat Growers’ Convention in
Macon Mr. Harvey Jordan said:
“Another fact which has been
well established is that drilled grain
not only withstands severe freezes
better, but will produce heavier
yields per acre. Thirty bushels of
cotton seed mixed with 150 pounds
of phosphoric acid is the best fer
tilizer which can be used under
wheat, or, in place of the seed, use
300 pounds of meal and 100 pounds
of kanit. Soak your seed wheat
well in a solution of bluestone, one
pound to five bushels of grain, put
ting in soak the night before plant
ing. Prepare your lands well by
deep plow ing, and harrowing down
to a fine tilth. Georgia lands will
produce as fine wheat and as heavy
yields per acre as any other state
in the United States. We have all
the requisites for growing all the
grain needed to supply our homes
with pure flour, and to supply the
towns and cities besides.
“The inauguration of this Wheat
Growers’ Association in Georgia
has already extended its beneficient
influences beyond the borders of
our own state.
“The great movement now being
undertaken to introduce a better
system of handling our cotton on
the market in the future will be
made easier of accomplishment if
our supply bills are cut down by
raising our flour at home. There
can be no question now that the
success of the Georgia Cotton
Growers’ Protective Association
will enable us to obtain 10 cents
per pound for the uext crop of cot
ton. All of the cotton states are
organizing, and I waut to see
every county in this state fully
organized by Sept. x.
“With an abundance of home
raised flour, with the finest coru
crop now growing in Georgia
within the past twenty years, and
selling the coming crop of cotton
for ten cents per pound, I feel a
tidal wave of prosperity has set in
for the farmers of Georgia. I want
its influence to spread out and
sweep like an avalanche across the
whole south, carrying peace and
prosperity into the hearts and
nomes of all our people.”
Folllowing Mr. Jordan’s address
an experience meeting was held,
in which a large number of those
present participated, each one
giving his experience in wheat
raising.
All agreed that the first and best
thing to do was to soak seed wheat
in a solution of bluestone, though
there were differences of opinion
as to just how long the seed should
be soaked Mr. Walker, who won
The Telegraph’s first prize last
year and who won the second prize
this year, says that he soaked his
seed only a few minutes before
planting. This is done to prevent
smut. Asa remedy for rust, salt
was recommended. About 100
pouuds sown broadcast, over the
ground, even after the grain is up,
will prevent rust. Potash was
also recommended. There was
considerable discussion as to the
best method of preserving the grain
from weavils after it had been har
vested. Several agreed with Mr.
Jordan in his idea, but some said
that they did not find this neces
sary, but that it should have ’ffen
ty of air, and should bethouroughly
dry before storing away. The gen
eral opinion favored planting in
drills about eight inches apart.
The best results were obtained
from Georgia bluestem wheat,
though Mr. Bridges the winner of
the first prize, said that he had
been using a mixture of seed that
had been 111 his family about fifty ,
years, brought here from North
Carolina. The quantity of see ta
be used to the acre was varied as
the land required. Some used as 1
little as one-third of a bushel, while
Mr. Walker says that he used
about two bushels and a half with
plenty of stable manure.
NORTH GEORGIA PEACHES
Immense Crop Grown by W. F- Sum
msrour Nar Dalton.
Dalton, Ga., Ang. 2.—The mar
keting the peach crop which is
I just closingin this county has been
the largest and most renumerative
one in the history of this section
bringing more money into the coun
ty than the entire cotton crop.
The largest peach crop grower
in north Georgia this year was W.
F. Summerour, whose orchard cov
ers over 350 acres of the finest
peach land in the south, containing
something over 60,000 trees of the
Elberta and Crosby variety. The
demand this year for Mr. Summer
our’s peaches was so great that in
order to market the crop he has
600 hands in the orchard working
daily. He has shipped so far fifty
cars to New York, Pniladelphia
Cincinnati and Boston, averaging
$i per crate. In the fifty cars he
has shipped 27,500 crates realizing
the sum of $27,500, and people are
glad to get them at this price. The
orchard covers about three square
miles of mountain side and is utidtr
a high state of cultivation. Next
season another young orchard will
bear, thereby largely increasing
the output, provided the season is
good.
Large crowds of town peoole vis
it the packing house to enjoy the
novelty of peach packing. Mr.
Snmmerour also conducts a large
canning factory, putting up an im
mense quantity of peaches from
another portion of his orchard. He
also has over 600,000 budded trees
in his nursery for planting. The
peach business of northern Geor
gia bids fair to supplant cotton.

A THIN DISGUISE.
The cattle fish has a tricky habit of
covering his tracks by exuding an inky
fluid which discolors the water and keeps
him out of view. There'aa good deal of
the cuttle fish about some advertise
ments, notably those purporting to offer
medical advice by a woman to women.
An examination of the advertisement
will show that no offer of a doctor's ad
vice is really made. And all the clamor
atom “writing to a woman” is merely
raised to divert attention from the fact
that a doctor's advice >s not really offered
and cannot to given. The real question
is not of writing to a woman or a man
but of writing to a doctor ,
For the advice of an unqualified
woman is just as dangerous as the
advice of an unqualified man.
Every day addi to the number of wom
en who take advantage of Dr. Pierce’s
genuine offer of a consultation by letter

cian of the Invalids’ Hotel and Surgical
Institute, of Buffalo, N. Y., Dr. R. V.
Pierce has, in a practice of over thirty

women for female troubles with the re
markable record of ninety-eight per

to consult Dr. Pierce by letter, without

THE STORY OF PEKIN.
Told bv a Dispatch From an Eng
lishman in China
London, Aug. 2. —At last the
story of Pekin has been told, L>r.
Morrison, in today’s Times, holds
up the Chinese government before
the world as guilty, and to a de- j
gree of infamy and duplicity that j
exceeds the surmise of its worst
detractors. In the same dispatch
he gives a more hopeful view of
the prospects <4 the besieged than j
has been expressed by any others j
who have been heard from.
Simultaneously there comes from
the British charge d’affaires at
Shanghai an official statement that
the allies are expected to reach
Pekin in about a week, they being
eighteen miles from Tien Tsin yes
terday.
Another letter has been received
at Tien Tsin from the British min
ister, Sir Claude MacDonald, dated
July 24.
•'We are surrounded by impe
rial troops,’’ he writes, “who are
firing on is continually. The
enemy is enterprising, but coward
ly. We have provisions for about
a fortnight and are eating our po
nies. The Chinese government, if
there be one, has done nothing
whatever to help us. If the Chi
nese do not press the attack. we
can hold, for say, ten days. So
no time should be lost if a terrible
massacre is to be avoided.”
A Shanghai dispatch says Li
Hung Chang has received a de
cree, dated July 23, commanding
him to inform the consuls that the
ministers were safe on that date.
Dr. Morrison, under uate of July
21, announces the arrival of sup
plies. In view of this it is quite
within reason that the edict an
nouncing the safety of the minis
ters on the 28th is correct.
Sir Claude MacDonald’s letter,
while a strong indictment of Chi
nese government, is not nearly so
much so as Dr. Morrison’s dis
patch. That correspondent, with
the imperial edicts as authority,de
clares that as late as July 2d the
imperial government urged the
Boxers to continue their “loyal
and patriotic services in exterm
inating the Christians.”
He explains those marvelous
changes in the Chinese attitude
which have so puzzled the world.
It appears that all the appeals for
intervention and all the protesta
tions of friendship have been due
entirely to the energy of the allies
at Tien Tsin. The minister at
Pekins owed their safety to July
21 st, not to government protection,
but to the scarcity of Chinese am
munition and to the fear which the
Tien Tsin victories inspired. When
it is remembered how great reliance
is placed upon Dr. Morrison in
England the importance of his ex
posure of the Chinese government
can scarcely be over-estimated. It
seems to banish all hopes enter
tained by Lord Salisbury that the
Chinese government might yet be
proved not directly responsible for
the outrage and it may result in
an entire cessation of the negotia
tions with Chinese diplomatists,
if not in an open declaration of war
on the part of the powers.
Gen. Sir Alfred Gazelle is quoted
as saying on July 28th that he was
ready to advance, although lacking
in artillery.
Col. Daggett, commanding the
Americans at Tien Tsin, is also
credited with a similar statement
on the same date, although utterly
without transportation, not even
having a horse for himself.
Reinforcements are reported to
have been sent to the Chinese at
Yang Tsun, where strong intrench
ments have been thrown up to bar
the advance of the allies.
TURTLES FOR ROTHSCHILD.
Two of Them Are More Than 225
Years Old.
Boston, Mass., Aug. 2. —Six
enormous aged turtles were pass
engers on the turret steamer Nora
more which sailed for London this
afternoon. They came originally
from the Albermale Islands in the
South Pacific, and are consigned to
the HOll. Walter Rothschild. M.
P., of London, where they will be
placed in his private zoological
garden. They were shipped to
him by F. F. Webste 1 -, of Hyde
Park. This consignment makes
eighty-four dead or alive tortoises
which have been sent to Mr
Rothschild within the past two
years from this port. The two
largest turtles weighed 450 and
400 pounds respectively and are
approximately 225 or 250 years
old. They had compartments over
t le fourth hatch on the upper deck
exposed to sun, rain and an occas
ional dash of spray, and inclosed
only by a rough wooden railing.
Today’s snipment included the
argest tortoise ever sent from the
United States. Theie are only
