That does not signify, however, that the Mormons are making any great headway in turn ing the people of the South to their ‘doctrines and beliefs. There are •ome Mormon doctrines which throw discredit upon their religious system, and it it almost an impos sibility for the elders to do any thing with a country Methodist or Baptist, who is generally “sot in his ways.”— Savannah News. - Five attempts to assult women were made by negroes in one day, last week, in Little Rock Ark.

Do not misunderstand me. I am not egaiutt the production of cot ta as a product, because Georgia is a notion stats, aud we need a cotton crop well as other products, but not to the aßolaaion of other oropa Therefore, let me beg you, once more, to arrange and glvsreify your crops, so that this fall we mag arrive at tbs gates of prosperity, to me stretched peaoofully before us the broad, rich aud sunny fields of industry, fadna with the golden fruits, of oon fanted toll—a pioture, as well as a reality, which all tbs people of Geor gia will ball with Joy. Thar* ku boen a great deal of com flsUt. In a gsusral way, that tho ln efactioaa and analyaea of fertilizers, af ter all, have been unsatisfactory. I hare, therefore, determined to make a eomplate aad tnoroagh inspection of all gnanoe, in every section of the state. To this end, if at any time a consumer or retail agent may desire an in epeotion of any brand of fertilizer, he om, by giving notloe to this depart ■mat, have a sample taken by an an thoriaed Inspector, and the same shall be analyzed by the state ohemist; pro vided, however, that in all euoh oases camples shall be taken from unbroken bags or packages. The ooasamers pay the tec on guanos,and It will be my pleas ure to see that they are amply proteoted, and it ehall be done, even though it take all ef the fertiliser tax to accom plish it All 1 ask U the 00-operatioa ef the fanners of Georgia. In the face of a short corn aud forage tsep the farmers generally, throughout the state, had determined to sow more largely ef greia.'.but the weether condi tions hevs been very unfavorable for both fall and spring seeding; bonce the noreage both for wheat and oats falls far short of what we at one time ex pected. The spring lowing of oats has bees sesfoaslr damaged, and in many esetioae entirely killed. Of course, this is s' heavy blow to the agricultural in terest* of Georgia; but we must meet these oonditious as beet we oau by sub •titatiag such forage crops es are best sailed t* our soil. 1 would suggest the planting of an acre ef sorghum, an acre ef ape, eu sore of millet, eu acre of oets, an am* of eerly speckle pees for a for age crop. Use the beet laud et your command, with special care iu th* prap anstiou of the soil, end manure liber ally. You can increase or decrease the else of your lota as your needs may sug geat These crops tuu be cut in the green state, as you may need the for age, aud allowed to dry a day or so be fore feeuing. As farmers are from three to five weeks behind with their work, especially plowing, many suggestions made in my Ihbruary talk will be applicable for this month’s work—hence, I would ask that you read again our last month's "Talk,” a* well es th* questions and answers therein contained. Do not, in your haste, plow your lands too wet—neither will it pay to plant corn until you have thoroughly prepared your soil for the grain. I would rather be two weeks late in seeding my crop, with the land well broken and bedded, taking special oar* to put in compost or commercial manure, than to plant the usual time with the ground hastily and ill prepared •ad th* grain aad fertillrer put in in a earelees meaner. “What is worth do lag at all, U worth doing well," applies With peculiar force to farm work.
