Joe Lane’s wife and James Law-

week. The former is improving, but
little hopes are entertained of the
child’s recovery.
The aged, wife of Jesse Turner,Sr.,
an old and highly respected citizen of
this county, died on Friday, night last
at 2 o’clock. She was about Seventy
years of age, and leaves a large fam

They have our sincere sympathy in
their affliction.
Wash Deriso is hustling around as
usual, busy as a bee in a tar-bucket,
repairing his gttts and picking cotton.
The old man and his sons deserve all
the success that they enjoy.

Abe Guldens and Kemp have.their

looks hard for the boys for it to rain
all around in sight and .not rain for
them.
Miss Lucy Guldens lias a fine

Robt. Deriso’s wife lias been down
with typhoid fever for the past 18
days, and is no better at this writing.
Old man John Fo\vler happened
to a serious accident last week. Me
fell out of the door at his home and
struck on his head, skinning it badly,
besides crippling him so severely he
could scarcely walk. His crop, to
gether with that of the Davis boys,
ifcourtoy’s and Barfield’s, are better
than it at first appeared they could
be just after the hailstorm. They
will all make half a crop, when it at
first looked as if they could make
nothing.
Last winter convinced Manny Ault-
man that mules need shelter. He let
them take the weather for a long
time, but has a fine shed put up for
them now. All he needs now is a
fine, two-story house for himself.
A'lot of the boys are flying around
hunting up beef cattle for Holt, and
from the popping of the whips they
must be getting a good bunch.

found the roads and by-ways leading to
Tv Ty logged no, neglected and little
used, while those to Tifton were in pretty
good order, and well used. These signs
show the tendency of trade.
I thought a few years itgo, when the
Gazette began to blow Tifton that it
would not he of much consequence, but
it lias blowcd and Mowed ■ and is still
blowing, and Us sound lias reached far
up to the north, and a large emigration
has come south and seen for themselves
that we have the greatest country here in
South Georgia that can bo found in any
part of the Union, taking into considera
tion its health, climat'c ami productions.
And, by the waj>Y the most of those
northerners are bringing money into the
country which was much needed for its
development. Much has already been
done along this line, yet there is room
for much more to bo done. Poulan has
built a large and beautiful hotel, and is
now putting on the finishing touch. It
is expected to be occupied by northerners
in a short while. I learn also th.at Pou
lan is to have a cotton factory in the near
future; so, taken all in all, if our people
would stop calamity howling and free
silver nonsense, and make their homes
happy and self-sustaining, we would find
out in a short while that we are the most
happy and prosperous people to he found
in the Union.
Nesbitt’s Answers.
Answer 10.—From the description of
said mule I think it is a case of dis
temper, caused from being in contact
with other stock affected likewise, be
ing due to a genu and oontagious. The
swelling under the thro at will termi
nate into an abscess.
The treatment is poultice the swell
ing and win a soft use the knife, open
np thorough.y and in a few days the
mule will be all right.
The stiffness is only a symptom of
the disease.
It might possibly ho lockjaw, but 1
think not.

Deep plowing brings to the surface
for fertilization, by the action of the
elements, soil that has been lying dor
mant for ages. Earth brought to the
surface from a depth of several feet in
the earth is soon converted into pro
ductive soil by the action of the ele
ments. Deep plowing, therefore,
makes the soil rich as deep as plowed.
A thin soil may he made deep by deep
plowillgs and subsoiling; by loosening
the soil by use of the sub-soil plow,
the. surface soil is washed down by
rains and becomes incorporated with
sub-soil, making a rich, deep soil, more
valuable for all purposes than a thin
soil.
Plant food exists in the earth to a
great depth. The roots of many
plants go down to a depth of many
feet. Lucerne, it is said, will send its
roots to the depth of ten to twenty
feet The various elements of plant
food found in the earth are attracted
to the surface in the greatest quanti
ties by keeping the soil mellow to a
good depth, and this is done by deep
plowing and suhsotling. Besides the
plant food obtained in the earth there
is also stored in the air a large amouut
of plant food, the use of which by
plants is greatly facilitated by keeping
the soil loose and moist. Deep plow
ing, therefore, favors the appropriation
of plant food under all possible condi
tions of soil and air.
By keeping the soil loose to a good
depth, the loss of crops in extremes of j
season will be avoided. In seasons of '
drought, moisture is maintained by i
an open and mellow soil, and when
excessive rains prevail the water
passes away readily from the roots of
the growing crops. Deep plowing,
therefore, is a great advantage under
nil circumstances, and at all times.
While shallow plowing not only fails
to produce good crops in a general
way, but if practiced any length of
time, will result in rendering the soil
unproductive, and this condition will
be increased from year to year until 1
paying yields can no longer tie real- ,
Ized. In shallow plowing the soil is
simply turned over, and will soon be
come as compact as before plowed.
lly repeated tramping by the team
the. sub-soil becomes hard and is im
penetrable by rains, leaving an excess
of moisture to injure the plants by re
maining in contact with tlioir roots
and so preventing growth.
The action of the air on the soil pro
duces no desirable effect and moisture
and plant food can not be attracted to
the surface from depths below. All
crops require moisture and must be
supplied with the needed amount of
plant food, and mellowness of the soil

also plenty green food from the lawn
