THE COTTON CROP. Much haa been iaid and written | about the cotton crop and much more will be said and written. All that can }>e said will not change the matter. The early|cotton has a good crop on it and the late cotton will make a good one if it has lime. Mr. John Johnson, one of the best farmers in this part of Geosgia in¬ forms us through a card on another page that the little worm that eats ail the lea res oft are making good head¬ way in his section and seems to think that they will greatly injure the late crop. Some years cotton blooms that open on the 10th of September will make white cotton, but of course that de I>ends upon the seasons from now un¬ til the middle of October. We can but hope that all had predictions will turn out for the best, and that the rains will not injure the fine corn crop that is now in the fields. Prof. Ilicks, of St. Louis, predicts a wet September but he don’t know any¬ thing about that. What the crop will (si, we can’t tell, but the prospect was never better. “Swift’s Specific is a great blessing to humanity,” says Mr. P. E. Gordon, of 725 Ilroad street, Nashville, Tenn., “for it cured me of rheumatism of a very bad tyi»e, with which I had been troubled for three or four years. 8. S. S. cured me after I bad exhausted else. Mr. ltussell Myriek, of the firm of Myrick & Henderson, Fort Smith, Ark., says he w ishes to add his testi¬ mony to the thousands which have Ixien given as to Swift’s Specific. He says he derived the most signal benefit from its use to cure painful boils and sorse resulting from impure blond. When taken for a few days, potash mixtures impair the digestion, take away the appetite, and dry up the gastric juices which should assist in digesting and assimilating the food. Swift’s Sjiecific has just the opposite effect; it improves digestion.biings opjietite, and builds up the general health. HOW’S THIS!

Some of our farmers are picking peas; look out or the wet weather will « et 8P8ckle P eas - The farmers should pick out their cotton as fast as it opens and put it on the market as the price Is good now. It is thought that the potato crop will be yery fine. Your correspondent has already seen some very large ones. The people of the neighborhood met at the old Presbyterian cemetery last M ondoy for the purpose of cleaning it off which adds much to its appearence. The cane crop is very fine and if the people wjll take care of it and the corn crop, we think the merchant will have no need to buy either of them to sell the farmers. The entertainment at Mr. A. W. Mershoa’s last Thursday night was an enjoyable occassion, although the enclement weather prevented a large crowd from going. i t seem3 that Mr. Joseph Fallen, is somewhat smitten with some of the Hancock county girls, as he is occa sionly seen leaving on Saturday and returning Monday. Meat is cheaper at this time of the jear than for many years and if the price stays as it is for the next year, with plenty of corn, we can’t see why the farmeis can’t make some money. Mr. Arther Gunn, who left the last of February, for Texas, returned last week. He is very much pleased with the State and thiDks he will make it his future home. lie may think Tex¬ as is the State, but he can’t say he does not love a Georgia girl.
