“No Fence 1 ’ Law.
fit will not be many years,and possi
'hly not many months, before the
•question of “no more fences for
Dooly” will be a vital one.
The timber of this county is being
rapidly convertedffnto lumber, cross
ties, etc., and being a magnificent
farming section, (farm after farm is
being opened up.
Any old resident of Dooly has only
to glance back for the short space
ten years—recall when the railroads
came through und since—and see
what, a change there has been.
Mady farmers tilaim that the minute
the lands in cultivation exceed the
woodlands, that minute no fence
law should go into effect. .Some
claim that it is a self-evident fact,
that in those sections where stock
law now exists, you will find
cows, better milk and butter, fewer
hogs but more meat, and, in fact,
upon ft whole, better stock of all
kinds than in those sections where
stock run at large.
A gentleman in Cordele remarked
the other day, that if stock law was
in force now, that many places near
Cordele, toasmall and expensive to
fence, would be placed in cultivation
and the value of lands would go up
twenty-five per cent. Be this as it
may, the people of Dooly county
will shortly have to meet this quee
tion face to face; therefore the
cotton acreage, diversified crops,
the fertilizer question and the va
rious other things which occupy the
minds of our farmers, should not
cause you to lose sight of this ques
tion.
It takes a man of no little ability to
be a successful farmer, it fakes a
thinking man to solve these impor
tant tilings, 'it takes much reasoning
to reach the proper conclusions.
We have no fear that our people will
be unable to reach the proper con
clusion and solve the question for
the best, interests of all concerned,
but you should begin now to discuss
the matter.
There are many handsome court
houses in South Georgia, but it is
said the building recently erected at
Lumpkin, Stewart county, is the
most imposing.

Copper In Georgia .
Thie owner of a copper mine in
Gwinnett county, Georgia, exhibited
to Professor Yeates, the State geolo
gist, a stone thoroughly impregnat
ed with free copper ranging from
almost imperceptible grains to par
ticles the size of buckshot, which, he
stated, was taken from a vein eight
feet wide. Professor Yeates stated,
according to the Atlanta Journal,
that if the vein is as large and regu
lar as ha9 been represented to him,
Georgia has within her bounds a
copper mine that would be second
only in its immense value te the
great mines of Michigan.—Manufac

Gen. J. B. Gordon, commander of

The Southern Girl.
bn concluding an editorial inspired
by a Southern girl’s regret that she
cannot go to college, Edward Bok,
in the April Ladies Home Journal,
has this to say to the girls of the
Southland: “The Southern girl is
surrounded by a life far truer and
more conducive to self development
(than girls living in other sections,
because social conditions are more
normal. Her life is Healthier be
cause it is saner, and her mind, by
Teason of it, is clearer and more
constantly at rest. The rush of life
in the North and West is not so
stimulating:a,s many Southern girls
suppose. On the contrary, it wears
women out as fast as it develops
them. In no part of our country do
women look younger at maturity
than in the South. To the Southern
girl, too,Nature blooms in a profusion
as she does nowhere else. The nat
ural history which the Northern
girl must get out of books the South
ern girl gets direct from nature’s
own hand. She is born of a soil as
rich and colorful in romantic history
as in the literature of Spain. This
she receives as a natural heritage.
H ;r parents are, and her ancestors
were, among the best types of Ameri
can chivalry and American woman
hood. She hears but one language
spoken, and that is her own. If
there is the introduction of another
tongue it is French, and with these
two she can travel the world over
and never be at a disadvantage. The
religion she learns from her mother
is the highest and best because it is
untainted with modern ‘revelations.’
The truest friend and safest teacher
in ‘highest living’ a girl can have is
her mother,and in the South mothers
have a way of finding time for their
daughters and being companions ts
them. Tlie Southern farmer is fond
of his children, and proves it by
presence at the domestic hearth
ter his day’s business is over. j

Bro. A. L. Ryals, of The Telfair
Knterprise, believes in expansion in
the newspaper business. Some time
since he bought the material of a
paper in McRae just to get rid of his
opposing comtemporary, we would
suppose, and he lias purchased the
Montgomery Monitor, at Mt. Vernon.
Mr. John B. Girardeau, who was
for a short while connected with the
Sentinel recently, will be in charge
of the Mt. Vernon paper. Success
to Bro. Ryals and Bro. Girardeau.
It’s a signal triumph for the

happens to come true.

is the one and the only preparation
that is safe to use. It is a liniment
that penetrates from the outside.
External applications are eternally
right. Internal medicines are radi
cally wrong. They are more than
humbugs—they endanger life.
Mother's Friend helps the muscles
to relax and expand naturally—re
lieves mcming sickness—removes head
the cause of nervousness and
ache— prevents hard and rising
breasts—shortens labor and lessens
the pains—and helps the patient to
rapid recovery.
From a letter by a Shreveport, La.,
woman: “I have been using your
wonderful remedy, Mother’s Friend,
for the last two months, and find it
just as recommended,”
