T— “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. The Brackett Bridge Co. of Cincin nati, ()., has received contract at $37,000 for the construction of the proposed bridge over the Oemtilgoe river at Macon. “Plie Searchlight,” volume 1, Number 2, has been received at this j office. It is a four-page journal j advocating School Reidsville. the interests of the High j at It is published ! monthly. ■General Gordon in his speech in Atlanta the other night touched on the .embalmed beef scandal, and re marked “that the confederate sol diers didn’t have the beef or the balin' either." The Houston Home Journal says i t is estimated at Fort Valley that 5o0 carloads of peaches will be shipped from that point this season, against 1,200 carloads last year. The Hale Orchard Company is preparing to plant 200 acres in cantaloupes. “A little 12-months-old baby of Mr Ed Beck, on Fine street, has been suffering for some t ime, and the par ents were unable to ascertain the cause. On Friday tile mother was the rubbing point the of baby’s sharp side instrument. and found j some On making an examination she pull ed a darning needle three inches in length from the side of the little one. The baby is improving now and will recover.”—Fitzgerald Leader. 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 turer’s Record. Gen. J. B. Gordon, commander of the United Confederate Veterans, has issued a circular letter in which he states that It is desired that the veterans everywhere form local as sociations and attend the reunion to be held at Charleston, May 10th., 11th, 12th and 13th. 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 i The people of Rochelle will, on the 24th day of May, vote on the issu ance of bonds to bore an artesian well and for the erection of a school building.

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.
