When we boys wore nan koci- summer, and. country jeans in winter, and honest wool hats, home-made sealskin caps, that would hold wNtor like a jug. -When the girls knit their own stockings, and it took only six yards of coun try homespun to makp a frock, and w© had -quiltings and a good dinner and invite.d the- nabora, and some of the patchwork was the sun flow er sud the Irish ebain and 4ho road to Jericho/ and it- was quilted in shells, and we. children thought it was just the *prittiest thing in the wide world, arid* were so sorry for the poor folks, who didn’t have em. We were rich at -our house. -We had nice plank window shutters and Bxlo glass, and a big room, another one by the side of it, and -a porch and two little shed-rooms that were not ceiled, and-I?ve never heard any music since that •'sounded so sweet and would put ’em to sleep so gent ly as thp patter of the rain upon the roof that riiedNvhero w slept. Ev erything wks goucf then, and the world was i<3vely and the days were long and happy, an<) it was almost an age to Christmas, and chestnuts and chinkapins were better than they are pow, and ?my mother’s turn-over pies and minde piefc were the best in the world, and so were the ginger-cakes, and nowadays I catch myself wondering why they are net so good as they uied to be, and think fhay be they have lost the old teceip£ or’the auger has lost its sweathekr.” Those Were good old times. “ ' COL.

There seems to be a ; growing in terest manifested in this county on the question of a stock law, and as the time draws near the election we may expert to witness some live ly discussions. Til th# communication in' *ur last issue on that subject signed subscri ber was an error in the alluding to coweta, campbeil, Hen rv, Rockdale, Spalding, Monroe and Putnam counties, where it read they are all agitating the question should have read they have all adopted it, and some of them by large majorities. we learn from our exchanges that Troup and clayton has adopted ‘it, and think Fayette will adopt-' it also. Newton county Grand Jupy jitood twenty-two to one in favor of it, consequently we will be surroun ded by the other counties having a' stock law to such an extent thas Butts will be forced to it whether we desired it or not, and we believe a majority of our citizens are in favor of it, as for ourself we belive It would result in good to the majority, in the meantime we favor a free b. dot and fair count, then enforce the * esult.

' The publication of CiU.; Avery’s “History of Georgia,!’ which mag nificent book will be re dr for deliv ery in a fevf days, is exceedingly timely in view of the deep interest whicn the world is now taking in the “Empire State of the South,” through the grand Ccti.*u Exposi tfon at Atlanta. The eyes of capi talists, rugnufacturera, Artisans, me chanics, and- .agriculturalists, are turned Upon. Georgia from all direc tion* at present, ahu many influen tial men of these classes are now in the Slate rpaking observations ‘with a view to invest capital, or to estab lish themselves in 'fcmlines. ; Colonel Avery’s 'splequid work, aside from its historical aqd person al value, embraces elaborate statis tics from official sources, and accu rate descriptions of +he rich and in exhaustable resources of Georgia, not to be obtained elsewhere. This fact alone will rn?ke the book indespensable to all who de sire full and authentic information concerning the State, for all who have capital to invest, or who de sire to settle here and pr< -per in busines. For the same reason the look ap peals to the patronage of our people, as by its wide distribution Georgia will be made known to the world, and its resouces placed permanent ly and authentically upon i^cord. — Christian liidex.

K.e meir advertisement. ..-w *1 Intensive Farnalßf The Atlanta Coastitutior pub lishes the following interview with Maj. J. P. Jones, of Troup county, on the subject of intensive farming: “The whole secreV'pf iuccess in Georgia farming,” kdld he, “is to cultivate less land arid enltivate it better. There is nothing that can be raised on any Tadd that we can not .rai&e- successfully arid profitably in middle Georgia' if vate itrighii Our farmers have always believed that* it was their duty to plow every** acre' they had cleared.*. A** aiifeqrience they have cultivated cldsSty, wistefully and with rafJilts; When ever th§y reducs. the .amount of land 'and' intensify the cultiva tion, the StatavnH he enriched as few men believa to be possible. “Have youdonu tliis yourself?” “Y#s |ir, and. willing to. give my .qwq that see hew i{ works... the> ; war I had soxns money considerable property, and I hired every-negro I could get, bought stbok and com menced farming on a grand scale, cultivating every acre I had, and doing everything loosely. In a few years I had nothing but my land, and was $7,000 in debt. I then went fc’% Dr. Moreland, told him my condition and I, must have $7,000. He agreed to lend.it to toe, and ad vised me to bny more mules, hire more labor and cultivate more land. But I had seen the folly of my ways, and changed my farm from a twen ty-five to atwofiqrse farm, and de termined to cultivate it in the ' best style. I planted about 26 acres in cotton, and made it average over a bale to the acre. I commenced raising my own corn, wheat, rye, oats, etc., and improving the little land I had reserved ” “What was the result?” “It was that in three years, instead of losing money, as heretofore, I had improved my placa and paid back almost the whoie of the $7,0001 had borrowed;; ■■This is my fifth crop since I reduced my farm, | am en tirely out of debt, have improved mv place; buildings and farm, and, when'the prfcfcentcrop is inarketed, will have a‘‘comfortable surplus. There is no trouble in making mon ey in Georgia if the farmer will only work intelligently.” “You say that you averaged more than a bale of cottoq to the acre?” “Yes; my entire crop averaged that. Last year I made within two bales or a b6le and'A half to the acre. ‘Hero is a certificate from two responcibre'gentlemen ? showingthaf. on 3 akre* of land I haye this year raised 8 bates of coltou, and gath ered their 2,502 pounds of cotton per acre, and had already gathered 1,600 pVr Afcre, making up to date 4,102 pouhds. The cotton was weighed #ith not even dew on it, and I have got 250 pounds of top cottoh per acre, as they estimate, in addition td'what I have gathered, and could ihake every acre 1 have planted thtfyefcr yield the same as this patch of 3 Acres. I was not able to give it ail the same cultiva tion, hat shall increase my inteflsive farming ovej more acres e*e?y yei^r.” “Yoiir cotton, then, must cost you much less tbian 9 cents a pound the estimated cost of raising cotton in Georgia?” “It costs iqe leSs than 3 cents a pound. Gorqptroller'General Gold smith and spiqe other gentlemen took the figures for my crop several years ago, aqd estimated the cost. They figured it at cents a pound. I am satisfied I have not raised any crop since I reduced my farm that cost me over 3 cents a pound.” “We would like to have all the details by which this is done.” “Well, the crop of last ysar was based on 21 acres. The labor used was 3 boys, valued respectively at $75 a year and board for one, and S4O a year and board for eaoh of the other two, together with sl7 w°rth of day labor —two of the three boys being too young to do good plowing. The total cash cost of labor was $173. This includes the labor of my sons. The land was manured with 4 toqs ot Etiwan Dissolved Bone, composted with domestic ma nures and cotton seed. The cost of dissolved bone was S9O, of the cot ton seed whioh were used at the rate of 40 bushels to the acre, SO3; the compost nothing, the total cost of manure $153. Besides the labor in making the crop, I had to pay for picking half of it at the rate of $7 a bale, amounting to S9B. The three boys did extra jobs about the house, did the milking, and it may be estimated that their board was worth $->6, or SIOB for the three. The total Cuot of the crop, therefore, | on the 21 acres was $531. —Off of this land I gathered 14,404 pounds of or 28 bales of 518 pounds, making the cost of cultivation 24 cents per pound. I held this cot ton until spring, and sold it at 10 coats a pound to R. G. Swanson, of LaGrange, making $1,448, or $917 net profit, or about $45 per acre. Besides this, the hands that culti vated the cotton made 190 bushels of wheat, of which I sold 100 bush els for $125; 300 bushels of corn, about 3.500 pounds of fodder, and 500 bushels of oats.
