tho fruit, lie does not look for such
a largo crop of peaches ns was raised

be finer, and tho growers aro naturally
looking for better prices, The same
is true of watermelons. The acreage
is smaller thou last year’s. The farm¬
ers did not mako any money on melons
last year and many of them wore dis¬
gusted. Neithor was the traffio satis¬
factory to the roads. The growers
look for better melons this year.

The Color I.lno at Fitzgerald.
The biggest sensation Fitzgerald has
had was started a few days ago when
handbills were distributed containing
the following:
"LaiiohebsI—T hore will be a meet¬
ing of the laboring class and mechanics
of the city of Fitzgerald tonight at
7:30o’clock, in the Fitzgerald block,
for the purpose of excluding all col¬
ored labor from the colony. If this is
to bo a white man’s colony, lot’s have
it white; if not, let the niggers have
it. Ily order of the committee.”
Those bills were scattered all over
the city and one whs tacked up with a
picture of a skull andcrossbonuB on it.
Everybody got to discussing it and
surmising what steps would bo taken
at tho meeting.
Thore are very few negroes employed
in tho place, probably not over twen¬
ty-five all told.
The mooting opened with 200 or 300
laborers and others present. A num¬
ber of spoeebes were made, some of
which were sensational and intemper-
ato, while others were conservative.
Oue or two of tho speakers blamed
tho "crackers” for tho presence of tho
negroes, and one speaker said the
southern people loved tho negroes
hotter than they loved tho northern
people. Othor speakers said tho ne¬
groes were employed by both natives
and northerners when other help
conld not be had, but tho sentiment
was strongly in favor of excluding
them entirely, and resolutions were
adopted to that effect. Tho meeting
was composed principally of northern
mechanics and workingmen, but there
woro southern men in tho meeting ulso.
Georgia Ronils.
Govornor Atkinson has returned
from a 10 days’ visit to Now York and
Boston where he wont to seo about ne¬
gotiating the new issue of Georgia
bonds for the sum of $142,000. Ho
conferred with a number of bankers
and brokers in both Now York nnd
Boston and communicated by letter
with a number of others in tho cities
of 1’hiladolphia and Baltimore.
Tho governor fools satisfied thnt tho
issuo will bo floated at very advanta¬
geous terms and that when tho bids
are opened there will bo some as low
as 8J per cent interest, and houio oven
lower than that.
The bonds thnt aro soon to bo issued
will be sold for tho purpose of raising
money to finish paying off un issue of
state bonds that will full duo on the
bonds first of July. sold In by 1870 $542,000 falling in
were tho state,
duo in 20 years and bearing interest ut
the rate of 7 per cont. Tho state has
a sinking fund of $300,000 now in tho
treasury to bo used in retiring these
bonds, but this is not sufficient, so tho
legislature, at its last session, passed a
law authorizing tho issuance of $242,-
000 bonds to run for 30 years.
“I havo been very much gratified to
know,” said Govornor Atkinson, "that
thore will bo somobids for thoso bonds
mado in tbo state, and I hope they will
bo low enough to koop them hero,ns it
would boa great advertisement for tho
state of Georgia to let it go out to the
world that she wns not begging, but
wuh ablo to take care of hor own bonds.
Thoy are absolutely eafo and would
make a flue investment, ns they are
oxempt from municipal, connty or
stato taxes. Tho state’s interest ac¬
count amounts to $3,000, but ngainst
that is tho rental of tho state road,tho
Northeastern, and othor sources of in-
oome which amounts to $89,088 iu ex-
coss of the interest. Iu addition to
thiH, that interest will bo materially
reduced, as on a large portion of the
lobt it was for 7 per cent, and this
will bo wiped out and tbo part that
will be renewed will bo for just ouo-
lialf of that amount.
“Thon tho constitution of the state
provides for a sinking fund of $100,-
000 a year, which goes toward lesson¬
ing tho debt of tho stato. Tho consti¬
tution also provides that all tho state’d
property is pledgod for its indebted¬
ness, aud that if it is sold at any time
it must go toward paying its debts.
This makes any one absolutely secure
in buying tho bonds of the state nnd
iutriusically they are worth more than
government bonds.
POPULISTS WILL WAIT.
X o State Convention To Bo Held Until
August.
Mr. Tom Wataon has issued au open
lottorto tho public saying thnt ho would
not call n convention of his party un¬
til Into.
"I nm frequently asked whon tho
populists of Goorgiu will hold another
state convention.
"Not until after tho national con¬
vention—and for good reasons.
"Ou Juno lGth tho republican
untionnl convention meets.
"Tho democrats hold theirs on July
7th, and tho populists hold theirs ou
July 22d.
“Our [party in Gorgia adopted the
nnusnal course of lioldiug ono of tho
1890 stato conventions iu 1895. The
delegates from this stato to tho national
convention have all boon chosen, aud,
so lar as tno piattorm is concerned, in¬
structed.
"Our next stato convention will bo
held partly for the purpose of nomi¬
nating a stato ticket, and partly for the
purpose, of ratifying tho national plat¬
form and tho national ticket.
"Of course, thon, our stato conven¬
tion cannot bo held until a sufficient
timo after the national convention for
our people to realize fully what has
keen done in national convention, so
that they oan act advisedly in the
premises. "This
being so, my judgment is that
our stato convention should not be
called together earlier than tho first
week in August.
“I should bo glad to hear from the
executive committee upon the snbject,

the wishes of the majority. Inasmuch

AGRICULTURAL
TOPICS OF INTEREST RELATIVE
TO FARM ANI) GARDEN.
don’t HAOniFICB TOE SHEEP.
Farmers are making a mistake in
disposing of all their mutton breeds of
f’ABQp, maiatainHD. J. of Ohio.
Thero is no meat producing animal
that will pay better .for tbo feed and
time expended, if kept in small flocks.
Mutton is always in good demand, and
it is stated by physicians to be the
most wholesome meat in tho whole
list. Sheep will eat more varieties of
weeds and grasses than any other ani¬
mal, therefore they aro a benefactor to
most farmers. Preserve and maintain
tho small flocks of mutton sheep, It
does me good to see a uice flock of
sheep well cared for, because I know
that in figuring up atjtho end of the
year, tho profit of the sheep will be on
tho right side.
THE EXPENSTVENESS OP PASTURING.
Wherever land is dear the pasture
provides food for stock that, consider¬
ing its nutritive value, is much dearer
than that grown by cultivation. In
the first place, the grass, oven if un¬
disturbed, does not yield as heavy a
crop as will most of tha groins and
corn drilled for fodder. In tho pasture
the constant trampling of stock lessens
tho grass yield still furthor. What tho
stock waste in a clover field will in
most places pay for the labor of cat¬
ting and carrying tho clover to them,
provided tho field is near whoro the
slock is kept, and the catting of the
clover can be dono by horse power.
Yot there aro many places where culti¬
vation is impossible, and using these
as permanent pastures is tho only way
to mako the land useful acd profitable.
—Boston Cultivator.
PREPARING LAND FOR GRASS SEEDINO.
Oats and peas mixed will not be a
good crop to seed to grass with, on ac¬
count of the dense growth by which
the young grass will bo smothered. It
will bo bettor to sow oats alone, and
after harrowing in the seed immediately. sow the
grass and clover seed
Tho grass seed should bo covered by a
light harrowing with a sloping toothed

will do just as well to draw a smooth¬
ing plank over the surface, whioh may
be made in this way. Tho planks aro

gives It tho best effect.
will be very desirable to apply
wood ashes—ten bushels per acre—
immediately after tho oats are sown,
and cover them in with the grass seed.
Nitrate of soda is always desirable; it
is a compound of nitrio acid and
soda, and one of the most valuable
nitrogenous fertilizers. One hundred
pounds por acre may bo sown, mixed
with wood ashes. For oats alone, sow
2| bushels per aero; for peas mixed,
simply add to the oats 1} bushels of
them. This mixed crop will yield on
one acre just the same as on two acres
sown separately. But as the peas will
settle down and shade the surface, it
is not advisable to sow grass seed with
this crop. After the oats are gathered
it might be well to sow on the young
grass ten bushels of air slacked quick¬
lime per acre. Or in place of it, one
bushel of plaster. Lime has an ex¬
ceedingly York good effect on clover.—New
Times.
SOME IMPORTANT NOTES ON PIGS.
Professor A. A. Mills, of tho Utah
Experiment Station, has given the re¬
sults of several careful experiments in
pig raising, made through the two
years of 1894 and 1895. He sums up
his conclusions as follows:
1. Pigs allowed to run at large over
eighteen acres of good pasture and fed
a full ration of grain, made the most
rapid growth, and required the least
grain for one pound of gain.
2. Pigs confined in movable pens in
the pasture grew more slowly than
thr ^ inning loose, nnd required an
lucroaso of twenty per cent of grain
t0 o 3. mft ^ Tigs e on at ° P° pasture, n “ d of fed growth. under three
different conditions, gained 92.5 per
cent, more and ate but two per cent.
more than the pigs getting grass and
otherwise similarly fed but confined
iu pens. Ihe grain required to pro-
duoe one pound of gain was increased
lorty per cent, with those in pens over
those at pasture.
4. I lgs fed but part rations of grain
at pasture made satisfactory gains.
Thoso nt pasture getting the three-
fourths grain ration gamed more than
those fed a fall grain ration and
grass, either in the yards or m tho
5. Pigs pastured without grain mado
about the same growth for tnree sea ;
sons in succession, this averaging .So
of a pound per day.
l>. nearly as can be judged exer-
eiso alone increased tho gam twenty-
two per cent, and the amount eaten
but 1.5 p, r ceut., but decreased the
amount required for ono pound of
gam twenty-two per cent.
7. Grass when cut and fed green to
pigs, whether fed in pens or yards, or
with full or part gram ration, or with-
out gram, proved to bo of very little
value.
8. Pigs confined and ... fed on
in pens
gtass alone, mostly lucern, for ninety-
one days, lost over a quarter of a
pound per day.
9. The average of tho pigs fed on
grass gained a little more than these
without the grass, but not enough to
pay for the extra feed in the grass.
10. With the pigs confined in the
hog house pens the grass proved bene-
ficial, while with thoso in the yard it
proved detrimental, the latter re-
quired more grain to make a pound
of pork than without it.
11. Pasturing either with full or
part grain rations appearing to be by
far the cheapest and best way of mak-
i»g pork.—Progressive Farmer.

August 8,1895. In on Interview
With Mr. Chas. E. JoUdsod, man¬
ager gents’ furnishing goods de-_
pnrtment, "The Fair,” Seventh and
Franklin avenues, St. Louis, he
eaid: "Several years ago I was
troubled with on aggravated caso of
Dyspepsia, and of course the first
thing I did was consult a physician,
As I had alwavB enjoyed the best of
health I was worried a good deal
over this, my first illness—that Is,
the first I could remember Blnco the
ailments common to childhood—and
my only desire was to got well as
speedily as I could. I took rogu-
larly all the medicines as my doctor
prescribed them. I must say tbat
iu a short time I felt all right,
thought I was cured, and stopped
taking the medicine. But It wasn’t
long beforo I was feeling as badly
as evor, and again I had recourse to
the doctor. This kept up for some
time, until at last I made up my
mind I would quit doctoring and try
some of the remedies I saw adver¬
tised from day to day. Well, this
was worse than ever, and In most
cases I didn't even get temporary
relief. 8o I didn't know what to do,
nnd mado up my mind that I would
have to pass the romatnder of my
days in suffering. Well, to eut a
long story short, I had road so much
of Ripens Tabulos that I concluded
I would give them a good trial It
said, 'ono would give reliof,' and I
thought if one could give relief a
whole lot might cure mo, I pur¬
chased two boxes from a druggist
for one dollar, and whon I hod fin¬
ished them I was feeling better than
I had for years. I continued to use;
them, and to-dnybelleve I am a well
man. Once In a great while I doj
have a slight touch of the old
malady, but a few of the Tabules
fixes that all right. I generally keep
a box in my house.”
