A MIDSUMMER THOUGHT.
How fast the year is going by!
Love, it will be September soon;
Oh, let us make the heat of June!
Already, Love, it’a passed July;
The rose and honeysuckle go,
And all too soon will come the
snow.
Dark berries take the place of
flowers; •
Of summer August still remains,
Then sad September with her
rains, ■
Oh, Love, how short a year is oura!
So swiftly docs the summer fly,
Scarce time is left to say goodbye!

TY TY NEWS NOTES.
Good Timo Friday at Close of Twenty
Day Singing School.
The writer, inf writing about the
all day sings and dinners on the
ground, is reminded of a bunch of
Ex-Confederate soldiers telling the
tight places they would get into
during the war; the last was always
the tightest, therefore the singing
school taught by Prof. T. A. Pcavy,
of SheTlman, at Hickory Spring
closed Friday, the twenty-day ses
sion, with song exercises by his class;
was one of the best, for it evidently
showed the harmony for which he
had been laboring, besides theory,
practice, etc.
Throughout the day’s exercises,
young men and boys would lead the
music and the girls, acting the part
of organists, and making it a satis
factory exhibition of the work, by
both teacher and pupil.
The juvenile class, composed of
boys and girls under eighteen years
of age, was the captivating feature
in the exercises. The manner of
rendition without any special prac
tice for this feature of exercises,
made it one of the best features in
the whole program.
The next was a song, rendered by
twelve girls, budding into women, a
most excellent rendition. The one
ness of the voices would make an op
eratic choir sit up and tuke notice.
The entire program of exercises
showed the work so satisfactory that
Prof. Peavy was secured for another
school next year.
The noon hour waa a parallel of
the song exercises, the best and when
I saw that fine dinner spread under
those beautiful shades, I thought
Brother Jackson would never get
through rendering thanks. That cor
dial invitation was extended to all
and I did not sec a dyspeptic in the
bunch, not even a generous candi
date, for every one seemed to enjoy
the nicely prepared dinner.
The afternoon was spiced with one
of Brother Jackson's talks on the im
portance of music and Brother Pick
ard on the importance of a taber
nacle at Tifton to accommodate the
county conventions and public gath
erings of Tift county.
Prof. Peavy gave n very appropri
ate talk on the sadness of giving his
pupils the good-bye and the audience
sang "God Be With You 'Till We
Meet Again,” and the audience wns
dismissed by Rev. J. H. Jackson.
E. R.
Self
Regret et Mr,. Flynt's Deeth.
Starter Blocked Wedding.
Ty’Ty, Aug. 14.—This entire com
munity wae shocked and grieved by
the recent death of Mrs. E. M. Flynt,
formerly Misa Pear! Ford.
She was born in Ty Ty and grew
up here, and those who knew her
best loved her most—the greatest
compliment that can be paid to the
moral worth of any human being.
Quite and unobtrusive, she won her
way to the hearts of all by her sterl
ing worth, and her loss is felt where
ever she was known. She was, by na
ture what the Creator intended wo
man to be—a home-maker.
When the automobile was first
making its way to public favor, not a
few seemed to regard it as an in
vention of the Evil One, and really
it sometimes acts that way. Also,
like a ‘smart" child, when one wishes
it to do its best it is likely to do its
worst.
It was that way at a wedding that
took place in Ty Ty last week. Things
had gone exactly as planned: there
was not the slightest hitch up to the
lime the automobile was to take a
part. It was the intention of the
pic to slip away from their friends
and go to a popular resort for their
honeymoon.. No old shoes, rice,
white ribbon, and so forth, for them;
they would get uway before anybody
knew where they were.
So they got out very quietly and
took their seats in the automobile
which (the irony of things!) was a
“self-starter.” In another minute,
they would have been out of sight;
but the self-starter refused to start,
and for one hour, despite all argu
ment and persuasion, it held to that
determination. At the end of that
time, another automobile was brought
up, and the get-away was successfully
accomplished.
Ty Ty would have been delighted
to keep the couple as permanent citi
zens, but not against their will.

“ Why do women write such letters? ”
In answer we say that never have we

an untruthful letter, or one without the

The reason that thousands of women

Brunswick Times.
Pinebloom, March 4, 1892.—Less
than two miles from Leliaton, and
almost an even one hundred miles
from Brunswick, is the mill of B.
B. Gray & Bro., the proprietors of
which are brothers of G. W. Gray, of
the firm of Gray & Gatchell. This
place is put down by the railroad as
“Gray’s Mill,” but the name of the
postoffice here is “Pinebloom.”
Gray’s Mill is one of the best con
structed saw mills in the State, and
1 believe there is only one other on
the Brunswick nnd Western road
that cuts as much timber. It has been
located here about twelve years
but the members of the firm were
in the business long before that. In
fact, B. B. Gray, though still in the
prime of life, has probably been en
gaged in his present occupation long
er than any other mill man along
the route.
The Gray’s are born mechanicians,
and there is nothing connected with
the working of the saw mills that
they are not familiar with. If
piece of machinery is not obtainable,
they make it; if nothing exactly lik<
it has been made, they invent it. The
father, who lives at this place, has
brought out several inventions, I am
told; but, financially, he has shared
the fate of the average inventor.
The surroundings of Gray’s Mill
are similar to those of all others in
this section, and saw-mill life here
is about what it is everywhere
Mr. Henry Gray, the junior mem
ber of the firm, looks after the farm
ing interests, and he is away ahead
of Uncle Jerry Rusk in the matter
of agricultural wisdom ami fore
sight. There are 125 employes nnd
sixty mule s to he fed. and Mr. Gray
has always confined his efforts to the
production of food crops. But last
year, in an evil hour, the freman per
uaded him to allow eight acres to
*e planted in cotton. The cotton
wns planted, but the more Mr. Gray
thought about it, the more he wish
ed he ha«l never given his cor
until finally, after the cotton
up and growing finely, he had it
plowed up, and the land was planted
in corn. His self-appreciation went
up last fall, as the price of cotton
went down.
This year the neighbors possessed
Mr. Gray to plant some tobacco. He
thinks that with careful attention,
the plants may die before they are
large enough to fa* transplanted—at
least, he says he ifrPes they will, as
that will save him the trouble of
plowing them up.
There is plenty of fruit at Gray’
Mill farm, but it is all consumed at
home. Watermelons are also raised
in abundance, but they too, find
home market.

LIVE-
LEGUMES FEED SOILS,
STOCK AND MEN.
When one considers' just two fact3
regarding legumes, these should be
sufficient to give them a more prom
inent place in Southern agriculture:
They gather nitrogen from the air
and store it in their bodies or leave it
in the soil. They are thus the best j
and cheapest source of nitrogen and i
humus, the two greatest needs of'
Southern soils.
But the other fact is scarcely less
important. Animals must have pro
tein, protein not only contains nitro-
for tissue-building or muscle
making, but also mineral matter for
bone and frame-building. Legumes
are the richest of all our farm plants
in protein-nitrogen. In other words,
the legumes at once, feed both our
soils anti our livestock and ourselvys
best. If these are facts, and they
it would seem that legumes
ought to have a more important
place in our cropping system.—Tait
