That “Old Joe,” the alligator,

That the young editor of the

That she is fairly disgusted with

make their husbands earn the liveli
hood for both, and then have to go
home at meal times and do the cook
ing and washing of the dishes,
while the “lady of the house”
lounges all day or is out on the
streets promenading. If she had a
husband like that she’d whip him
for tolerating such ridiculous lazi
ness. She sure would. *
That some young people in Jack

or. Sunday to see “Old Joe, ’ but
it’s all an excuse to “spoon” and

she thinks.
That she waked up the neighbors

One rat killed instantly, while

We have on our book’s, accolmts
of small sums due us for advertising,
job work and subscriptions which
must be collected. As we have
failed to do so ourselves, we are
going to try the legal process, may
have to pay cost but will have the
judgements and the accounts closed.
We don’t like to do so, but unless
we can collect them soon will have,
as a last resort, to proceed.

The Du Vail Studio in this place

of like character in southern Geor

we challenge contradiction. They
are supplied with all the latest im

turn out as fine work as can be
gotten in Savannah or Jacksonville.
In pastel, crayon, oil and other
enlarged, pictures they do a fine
business. They have two or three
agents traveling over the county,
taking orders, and hacked with
thsir splendid facilities and up-to
date equipments the DuVall Broth
ers are making a grand success in
this business.
Campaign Thunder Which Exploded the
Wrong Way.
The rumor put in circulation by
one of the ring politicians of Sa
vannah, (Hon?) W. W. Osborne,
that Mr. Estill was a deserter from
the confederate army, received the
rebuke it deserved, by honest peo
ple and *he old confederate veter
ans of Athens. It made many
friends and votes for Mr. Estill.
Something of like character was
played in Southern Georgia by
some of his enemies, and resulted
as it did in Athens. People voted
for Estill that were opposed to him
before they heard the report, and
his friends stuck closer to him.
So the political schemers got up
some campaign thunder which ex
ploded in the wrong direction, and
while the repution of an honest man
was being assailed the dirtiness of
work failed to establish any favor
able opinions of the traducers or
add anything to their reputations.
Legal Advertising is Cash!
Ordinary’s court last Monday
was very light. The Judge, always
punctual, but those who had had
advertising done and promised to
pay for it on the first Monday were
not present. They are all good,
but being “good” does not pay
bills, and in future these fees must
he paid for in advance. The law
makes that provision, and while
the honest old Ordinary, in the
goodness of his heart, often never
gets anything for his fee, does not
make it obligator}- on us to do like
wise, and we put the public on
notice that no more legal advertis
ing will be done in this paper with
out the cash. The Sheriff has
adopted that rule in the first of his j
term, and never accepts an adver
tisement without—the fee is forth
coming, and to-day, as we write
this, there is not a dollar due from
his office, w hile advertisers through'
the Ordinarys office is behind be
teen Sco.oo and $50,00. \\ e can
not run the paper at it’s present
rate of expense, and do a credit
business, and as we are not work
ing for an honor or fun we are not
going to try. Now, this is positive.

HOW TO DESTROY Wk
Remedy Most Generally U
Treating For These Insects \ -c
Spray the Plants as Soon as First
Grubs Hatch.
In its adult stage the Colorado Po
tato Beetle is about one half an inch
long, rounded, very convex, almost
hemispherical in fact, and is distin
guished from any other insect that
might answer to this description by
the striped color, and the fact that
the dark stripes are always exactly
ten in number. These beetles appear
early in the spring, soon after the po
tato plants have started their growth,
but though they do some damage di
rectly, it is to their young, the reddish,
fleshy "bugs” that the bulk of the in
jury is due. These are hatched from
groups of orange yellow eggs that will
be found soon after the appearance of
the parent beetles, which deposit them
on the under side of the potato leaves
or on other plants that chance to be
growing in the immediate vicinity. It
is usually the appearance of these
"bugs” in serious numbers that first
calls the attention of the grower to
the fact that something must be done
to save the crop.
Remedies’.
The remedy most generally used in
treating for these insects consists in
the spraying of the plants as soon as
the first grubs begin to hatch, with
some poisonous substance, usually Par
is green mixed with water. Several
other compounds have been put on the
market which are equally effective,
and perhaps possess some advantage
over that named. Among them may
be mentioned Arsenate ot Lead,'either
as sold by Chas. Warren Davis, Au
gusta, Ga., under the name of Swift’s
Arsenate of Lead, or by John B. Dan
iel, Atlanta, Ga., under the trade name
of Disparene, which seem to possess
certain advantages over the PSKs
green in fineness and adhering qual
ities. At a rule, however, compounds
put up in packages and sold for these
purposes under fancy names should be
looked upon with considerable suspi
cion, as they are often nothing more
than Paris green or some other well
known insecticide adulterated with
some worthless material, in order that
a greater bulk may be sold for the
same price, and at the same time leave
a handsome margin to the “manufac
turer.”
Spraying.
In the application of these sub
stances one ounce of the Paris gre
or a somewhat larger quantity of
Arsenafe of Lead or Disparene si
he weighed out for each six gallon
water that is to be used, and
should be thoroughly wet or stirred
with a small quantity of water bei\
being diluted. The spraying will ha
to be done, if the field is one of con-**
eiderable extent, by means of a spray
pump, of which a great many forms
are manufactured and sold, .and o£
which the chief requisite perhaps is
the attachment of a thorough agitator.
The poison sinks rapidly through the
water, in which it is-not dissolved but
only suspended, and unless thoroughly
stirred will be applied in very uneven
strength and some damage may re
sult. It is not necessary that a very
thorough application be made, as is
the casse when spraying for scale in
sects, etc., since the young grubs col
lect, as soon as hatched, on the
more tender portions of the growing
plants and are pretty certain to be
reached by the poison if these merely
are sprayed. It is very often necessary
that two or more applications be made,
as the young hatched from eggs laid
after a plant is spryaed may find suf
ficient food on the shoots, that have
grown after the application of the poi
son, and will not on that account be af
fected by it, at least, not until all the
tenderer portions are eaten away, and
a good deal of damage done.
In small patches, as in a garden,
where potatoes are not raised for the
market, and in which cases it often
happens that the owner has no suit
able pump, some other means may he
used for the application of the poison.
A god way is to mix a small teaspon
ful of the Paris green into a bucket
ful of water, and by means of a whisk
broom, or even a whisp of straw on
a stick which is stirred about in the
bucket and then shaken over the plant,
a very good job on a small scale may
be done. The use of the small com
pressed air pumps that are quite com
monly used in spraying whitewash on
1 disinfectants is not recommended!
j There is no proper means provided for
sufficient agitation, and unless the
l pump is constantly shaken to insure
| the continued mixture of the poison,
-very poor results may be expected.
1 Some growers prefer to apply the
j poison in dry form, and this method
has certain advantages over the spray
: ing. especially in small garden spots,
j It may either be applied pure or slight
-1 lv diluted with plaster or flour, and
; there are made for this purpose sev
! era! forms of powder bellows which
i are quite exact and economical in ac
tion. This method is not applicable
to large fields, however, as it is neces
sary that the application be made in
the early morning when the plants
are wet with dew, or else after a
shower.
It will be seen now the wire pull
ing political prognosticator did not
■ know it all.
