Chatham, the Atlanta correspon

high compliment to 0 f the

well deserved, and Carroll county is
proud of her sons, who have won
such honorable names throughout
the State. Here is what Chatham
says: “There is nothing better than
“pluck” for a man of good moral
character. It will carry him flirt ugh
all kinds of adversities and snatch
victory from the very teeth of
defeat. I doubt if there are three
pluckier men of their i^yhes in
Georgia than Hon.'Milton A. Can
dler, Rev. Warren A. Candler, and
Col. John S. Candler. And they are
as fearless as they are plucky. A
few months ago Col. Candler,-the

New Mexico.
Contributed by W. J. Pyron.
Allow me through youf valuable
paper to inform the public what we,
or a portion of us at least, is doing
in New Mexico district at this
time.
The farmers have commenced
work on their farms in good earnest
and say, with the help of God, they
expect to make a good crop this
•year. A great many made corn en
ough to do them this year and the
motto is now, more corn and less
cotton. I have heard it said that
a man never learned anything un
til he was 40years old, and I believe
it is true, and I think the most of
the farmers in this section are 40
years, or nearly so.
L »st spring we organized a far
mer’s club at Pleasant Grove
church. The object of the club is to
improve our way of farming. We
are trying to make our farms self
sustaining; we are reducing our
acreage considerably, and find it
pays a large per cent. I think the
farmers should work more with the
brain and not depend altogether on
the muscles. In our club last
spring we offered a premium on
the best acre of cotton and corn and
best hog, which resulted as fol
lows:

This year We will run cotton, Corn
hogs, wheat, oats and potatoes.
Now farmers I think it, is time
for us to look to our interest, plant
less ground and do like some of the
club members did, work your crops
every time' you think about it,
make your corn and meat at home
and then your coat sleeves will not
be picked thread bare by your cred
itors, you will be able to pay ybur
debts aud sleep sound at night.

Ripples to know it if it will not
interfere with his asthma, as it iwill
indicate that we are on the ad

deal since he last reported us, for
we take all the good papers, such
as the Free Press, and have quit
talking about eaeh other and golly
we got lots of corn to sell, and ev
er y-body has a pen full of fat Bogs,
and the girls are so pretty that the
old men can’t keep them but 16
years, and you can just norate this
around, that we need a car load
more of the pretty females down
here, for we have several friends
who are on the awful verge of bach
elorhood, and we don’t want them
afflicted with those soul destroying
traits. Please send us down an

“H. A. Mott, Ph.D.”
“ I have examined a package of Royal Baking Powder, purchased by myself ta

“ I have analyzed a package of Royal Baking Powder. The materials of which

The Royal Baking Powder received the highest award over all competitorsat

Note.—The above Diagram illustrates the comparative worth of various Baking

Prof. Schedler only proves what every observant consumer of the Royal Baking
Powder knows by practical experience, that, while it costs a few cents per pound
more than ordinary kinds, it is far more economical, and, besides, affords the advan

fair minded person of these facts.
* While the diagram shows some of the alum powders to be of a higher degree
