Mr. Howell’s Jersey Cattls.
Mr. T. F. Howell has done a good
thing for his country and section by
the Importation directly from the
Island of Jersey a herd of Jersey
cattle. It will enkindle interest
upon the subject. The beautiful
iittle arched neck cows from over
the sea were the centers of univer
sal attention yesterday. Just what
is needed in all this country is to
get the people enlisted on the sub
ject of improving their cattle, hogs,
chickens, farms, barns, gates, horses
and wagons. Many farmers are
bankrupt and disheartened. They
have worked hard, hut they have
been gradually sinking deeper in
debt every year. Many of them
are almost ready to give up in de
spair. They see no way out. Oth
ers ofthem are borrowing money
from the North, mortgaging their
farms for the same, hut to starve
off the coming catastrpohe of finan
cial ruin a few years longer. It is
only a question of time when near
ly all the farmers of this country
will be irretrievably in debt,unless
they adopt better metnods of agri
culture. Enough labor has been
bestowed upon the lands of Floyd
county the past ten years to have
made it blossom as the rose, if it on
ly had been intelligent labor. A
man needs to use his intelligence
in farming just as much as lie does
in practicing law. It would have
been well if half the guano put up
on the fields of this county had
been put upon the brains of the far
mers. The extensive method of far
ming has to be given up. We must
adopt the intensive plan. Instead
of putting our labor upon 100 acres
of land, we must put it upon ten
acres. Instead of trying to keep
up five cows, we must keep up one
well. We must concentrate. It
would he a good thing if our Legis
lators would pass a law forcing the
farmers to plant three-fourths of
their cleared land in trees. Leav
ing them but one-fourth for cultiva
tion. Then, in a few years, plenty
of rain would he insured for the
fourth cultivated. Thus they would
be able to raise ten fold more upon
the small amount well cared for,
than formerly upon the immense
fields skimmed over. The history
of the Island of Jersey affords a
striking proof of this. The Island
of Jersey is one of the channel
group. It lies north of Brittany,
and opposite the west of Norman
dy. According to Mr, Geo. E. War
ing, Jr., they originally formed a
part of the duchy of Normany, and
were a part of the possessions of
William the Conqueror, when he
became the King of England.—
From East to West it is only eleven
miieslong; from North to South
about seven and a half miles wide.
Only about 25,000 acres of the island
are under cultivation. The popula
tion, over 56,000, two persons to each
acre of land in cultivation. The
farms are small. It is said that
there are not more than five or six
over fifty acres. They are general
ly from three to ten. Every avail
able land is brought under cultiva
tion. By fertilizing and intelligent
tillage they make every single
acre do its best. The Jersey- peo
ple have shown the world what
intensive farming will do. Their
methods of farming has paid them
so well that they are lifted in their
curcumstances above all the work
ing people of all Europe. Their
careful, intensive and intelligent
methods of tilling their farms have
their reflex influence on their mor
al and social condition also. They
are among the most law abiding,
contented and happy people in the
world. They have incorporated
their plan of agriculture into their
moral and social character. From
being peasants they have come up
to the plane of gentry. They have
made a name all over the world.—
They are the observed of Europe
and America. They have been put
ting their attention, their skill, and
their labor upon small farms, and
they find larger yields from these
than we Americans do from our
thousand acre farms. The whole
island has been turned into a gar
den—a magnficient park, set in
grass and orchards, and mangolds
and parsnips an! carrots and pota
toes and wheat, The contented
and happy inhabitants have reach
ed a point where, with a small out
lay of labor, they reap large yields
from pastures and cows. Thus they
have time to devote to the culti
vation ef their minds, the beautify
ing of their grounds, and the im
provement of thefr outbuildings,
stables, cow houses, stiles, sheds,
barns, cider-houses and bake-hous
es. Life amounts to something on
the Island of Jersey. It is beauti
ful. It is rationally spent. There
is no butchering of the laud.
No
Nashville, Tenq. | topsy turvey gates. No foolish
wasting of time. Every lick struck
produces a turnip or a potatoe or a
cow. The interest of our people in
the Jersey cow question indicates
that we propose to adopt the inten
sive method ourselves. Mr. Butler
Woodward, of Whitfield county,
has done a work in that section,
by his Jersey farm that can never
he appreciated. He is getting rich
himself and showing his neighbors
how to get rich. He has about for
ty J ersey cows, all registered. His
owh-ouseis almost as comfortable
as his dwelling. And this is saying
a great deal for it. He makes a
pound of butter per day from each
cow whose milk is put into the
churn, whether she is fresh, or
whether the calf is nine month’s old.
His cows never go dry unless forc
ed to do so. He can keep a cow on
his farm at a cost of $35 per annum.
His herd will make him 300 pounds
of butter each, per annum besides a
calf worth from $250 to $500. In ad
dition to this, he will fatten a pi g
that will not cost him over $1.25 to
200 pounds weight on each cow’s
skimmed milk, using grain not ov
er thirty days to killing point. The
manure will pay for cost of atten
tion. He will sell every’pound of
his butter for 40 cents per pound,
each thns yielding him $140 a year
in milk and butter. What Mr.
Woodward is doing for Whitfield,
Mr. Howell will do for Floyd.
Many people, howeygr, do not un
derstand the high price of the Jer
sey cows. Why a cow should cost
$1,000 is a problem that puzzles
most people. A slight amount of
thought will show us why this is
so. Almost everybody knows why
some buggies will cost $250 while
others only cost $45. The difference
is in the build. You can buy a cow
raised without care for $30, but a
good Jersey costs $1,000. The differ
ence is in the build. The Jersey
people build their cows well. The
names and ages of the cows are
kept as carefully as the names of
royal families. This indicates a cor
responding care among the people
in the selection, training and feed
ing of their cattle. For over a hun
dred years past these cows have
been selected with reference to
their butter making qualities.—
They have been watched like chil
dren and handled like children,
and trained like children, until they
have developed into the best but
ter cows in the world. Ungainly
or unpromising calves are not en
couraged. Calves which compare
well with the scale points are en
couraged and petted and registered.
Thus’the Jerseys have been brought
to a high degree of perfection in
those qualities for which men want
cows. Mr. David Dickson, of Ox
ford, improved cotton seeed till he
readily sold them for $5 per bushel
and they were worth it. Diamonds
are worth a great deal more than
charcoal, because in diamond char
coal reaches the highest degree of
perfection of which it is capable.—
A heap of coal is worth a great
deal more than a pile of wood of the
same dimensions. It took a long
time, however, to bring the forest
to lignite, and the lignite to coal.—
So when through the natural pro
cesses of refinement, wood is turn
ed into coal, it is worth a great deal
more than wood. It contains
more of sunshine. This is the phil
osophy of the high price of Jersey
cows: They have more elements
in them, and these elements more
highly refined for which men want
cows. They are first-class butter
machines. There is not a bone in
them, nor a drop of blood, nor a
muscle but exists for making but
ter—yellow, sweet, rich, luscious.—
As far back as the year 1779 the
people of the Island of Jersey pro
hibited, by, law, the importation
of any foreign cattle, cow, heifer
or bull. They have watched them,
protected them, rubbed them
and curried them for hun-
drdes of years. They have put their
energy, and taste and money into
the Jersey cow. The Jersey cow
may truthfully be said to be the
embodiment of the working capac
ity and the taste of the Jersey peo
ple. They have transmuted their
little island, with its mild clipaate,
its beautiful scenery, its fertile soil,
its soft skies, into the beautiful, thin
eared, arch-necked Jersey cow.—
Their lovely flowers, fuchais, came-
lias, japonic as, semi-tropical ferns,
yuccas and azaleas have been re
produced, in a sense, in the taper
ing heads, small chests, clean
throats, fine muzzles crumpled
horns, full eyes, small hoofs, square
ly-placed hind legs and yellow hid
es of the Jersey cow. No wonder
they are high-priced. They will
remain so as long as the same
amount of care is bestowed upon
their culture. As long as money
is put upon their cultivation, they
will bring an equivalent of money
when sold. There are lands in
Georgio now, that twenty years ago
were not worth ten dollars per acre,
that now sell for one hundred dol
lars. The difference is found in the
fertilizers that have put upon them
for the past twenty years. It would
be well if we would all learn a les
son from these simple, industrious
Jersey people, If we would have
our chickens, hogs, horses,
cows, bees, goats and sheep valua
ble, we must put brains into them,
plenty of food in them, and good
shelter ovor them. It is time our
farmers were quit living from hand
to mouth, and seeking large yields
on little invested. Too many peo
ple want roses without thorns, re
wards without labor, cream with
out the bluejohn and grapes with
out digging and pruning.lt would he
a good thing if every man in Floyd
county woul invest $500 in a Jersey
cow. He would then go home and
build a new barn and sow grass
seeds. A $500 Jersey cow on a farm
would produce a regular revolution
and become the entering wedge of
the intensive method of farming.
“Greater love hath no man than
this, that a man lay down his life
for his friends.” This is what Chief-
Engineer Bain of the steamer State
of Florida, did. The only woman
saved from the wreck of that vesse
was Stewardess, Jane MacFarland,
of Glasgow, and she owed her life
to the self-sacrifice of the chief
engineer. He was in one of the boats
when he saw that the woman was
left on the sinking steamer. He gave
her his place, returned to the
Florida, and went down with her*
Such a deed recalls that thrilling
scene on the sinking Birkenhead
many years ago. There was only
room in the boats for the women
and children, and there were many
British troops on board. At the
command of their officers those
brave men put all the women and
little ones in the boat; then drew
up with parade steadiness on the
dbek, and as the vessel sank they
fired a volley and went down with
her, their ranks unbroken to the
last. That was collective heroism,
but was no nobler than the perfect
self-devotion and manliness which
the Scotch engineer displayed
when he deliberately gave up his
own life that a helpless woman
might be saved.—New York Trib
une.
If there is one sin of the tongue
that is more hateful than another,
surely it is the sin of uncharitable
charitableness. Every statement
has its implications, as the lawyers
say; and sometimes the most effec
tual way of slandering your neigh
bor is to express a charitable hope
that he may not he as bad as some
people have reason to think him.—
There is nothing that hurts reputa
tion like suspicion, and there is
nothing which more directly excit
es suspicion than the apparent re
luctance with which one person ac
knowledges his hope that another
person may be an honest man in
spite of what he himself might say
if he would. “I know that this is
not true of Mr. Asterisk,” said one
sharply. “I hope not.” blandly
responded Mr. Blank. “I will try
not to believe it as long as I can
help. Some time later, Mr. Aster
isk’s reputation was abundantly
cleared, and that from the very
same source where it had been first
called in question. “Now you see
it has turned out all right,” said the
one who had expressed his belief in
Mr. Asterisk’s innocence. “Not
whitewashed, I hope!” said Mr.
Blank who was, of course, too chari
table to speak uncharitably.—S. S.
Times.
Every one should give, whether
rich or poor. The cent of the strait
ened is as much needed for worship
as the dollar of the richer. The
poor man should no more omit giv
ing because of his poverty than the
illiterate man should omit praying
because of grammar. No Christian
has a right to except this from his
worship.
Ye great men, spend not all your
time in building castles in the air,
or houses on the sand; but set your
hands and purses to the building of
the porches of Bethesda! It is a
shame for a rich Christian to be like
a Christmas-box, that receives all,
and nothing can be got out till it
be broken in pieces and like unto a
drowned man’s hand, that holds
whatsoever it gets.—John Hall.

Grand Juries as Conservators of Public
Morality.
In reading the proceedings of
superior courts in the various coun
ties bf this state, we have been im
pressed by the wisdom of the legis
lature in requiring the judges to
give in special charge certain sec
tions of the code in regard to gamb
ling, carrying concealed weapons,
sellingjliduor to habitual drunkards,
furnishing deadly weapons to min
ors, the playing of billiards by per
sons underage and kindred crimes
By “line upon line and precept up
on precept,” by “here a little anti
there a little” from the bench, the
press and the pulpit, public opinion
will after a while he moulded into
such opposition to these practices
that they will no longer be possi
ble.
The grand jury is the most pow
erful factor in good local govern
ment. If, twice a year, in each of
the 130 and more counties in Geor
gia, twentythree good true and in-
telligeent citizens (the code re
quires that they shall be the best)
sworn to enforce the law, without
fear, favor or affection, would he
true, in every instance, to their
duty, not only these evils, but everv
other species of crime would be
speedily wiped out, or so diminish
in a few years, that there would be
little need for jails and peniten
tiaries. These are the roots and the
nourishing soil of crime: lay the
axe at the root of the tree and the
deadly upas which blights the land
would itself soon be destroyed. How
great the responsibility of a grand
juror! He is a sworn officer of the
court and should know neither self-
interest nor favoritism in his public
acts. The enforcement of the law
the ferretihg out of crime and the
presentation of the guilty for trial,
should he his only thought The'ele-
vation of the character of our grand
juries will be a powerful means of
uplifting society and promoting
morality.
In our own county crimes involv
ing great moral turpitude are now,
happily of infrequent occurrence.
At the last s ession court, only one
or two above the grade of misde
meanors were tried. Our city and
county have a high reputation ab
road and this freedom from crime
has been largely accomplished by
prohibition. Let the lines he exten
ded so as to embrace our county
lines, North, South, West and East,
in accordance with the recommen
dation of the lat grand jury, and
this clean record will be yet
clearer.—LaGrange Reporter.
Hydrophobia.
Never has this country had any
thing to compare with present mad
dog rage. Scores of lives have been
lost in the state and hundreds of
valuable animals, within the last
year, from hydrophobia. Instead
of decreasing, the trouble seems ra
ther to be on the increase. The fol
lowing late telegram will therefore
be read with interest :
Paris, May 21.—M. Louis Pas
teur, the academician and eminent
chemist, read a paper before the
academy to-day, in which he stated
that the researches which he lias
for some time been prosecuting,
conclusively prove that the fatality
attending hydrophobia may be av
oided by inoculatian. M. Pasteur
says that his discoveries are so im
portant a government commission
should at once be appointed in or
der to thoroughly investigate the
subject. He says: “I have been de
voting the last four years to this
subject, and have found out that the
virus loses its intensity by trans
mission to certain animals and in
creases its intensity by transmis
sion to other animals. With the
rabbit, for instance, the virus in
creases, with the monkey it de
creases. But my discovery does
not end here. I took two dogs and
inoculated them with virus taken
directly from a dog that had died of
acute hydrophobia. I let one of
my dogs thus inoculated (done and
he went mad and died of acute hy
drophobia, I subjected the second
dog to jny treatment, giving him
the three rabbit inoculations, be
ginning with the weakest and end
ing with the strongest. This second
dog was completely cured, or rath
er, became completely insuscepti
ble to hydrophobia.”

Tribute of Respect in Troup Superior
Court to the Memory of Hon.
Chas. W. Mabry.
Since the members of our bar
were last called to assemble in this
temple of justice, our much esteem
ed and sincerely lamented brother.
Hon Chas. W. Mabry, has been sum
moned to appear before that bar
where justice is administered by
the Allwise ar.d Infallible Judge.
He was a man of strongly marked
character, of indomitable will, per
fect self-control, and of clear and
discriminating mind. But alas!
“Pallida mors puisat aequo peels
turves regium tabernasque pauper-
um.” Neither genius, nor talents
nor will power, nor moral worth,
can avert the fatal shaft. Death
enters and there is no defence.
“Dust thou art and unto dust shall
thou return.” Nobly did lie hear his
part in the severe and protracted
conflict which, he maintained with
the dread Destroyer; hearing all,
suffering with that fortitude which
was one of his distinguished charac
teristics. Though the event was not
unexpected, it was exceedingly
painful. His place is forever vacant,
his voice forever silent. Called
away just as age and experience
had ripened his judgment and
broadened his information, he
leaves a chasm in this bar, in the
family circle, and in the community
that cannot ho filled. His intellect
ual endowments were of a high
order. His mind was vigorous and
discriminating. He never allowed
his sentiments to dominate his rea
son; and thus, cool and collected
yet of broad and accurate informa
tion, he was ever a most powerful
champion on the field of legal
combat. In the halls of legislation,
he proved himself a wise and con
servative counselor; on the field
of battle he showed himself a brave
and patriotic soldier. That he had
faults, we do not deny; for he was
a man. But let ns cover those faults
deep under the flowers of friend
ship, while we embalm in memory
his many virtues.
Resolved, That we deeply sym
pathize with the bereaved and that
we cherish the memory of onr
deceased brother,
Resolved, further, That as a per
petual record of our admiration, wo
respectfully ask this Honorable
Court to have this preamble and
these resolutions spread ubon the
minutes of this Court, and that a
page of the minute hook he special
ly set apart, on which shall he in
scribed the name of Hon. Charles
W. Mabry, with date of birth and
death.
Resolved, further, That a copy
of these resolutions be made out
and signed by the Clerk of this
Court and forwarded by him to the
family of the deceased. Also' a
copy for publication in the La
grange Reporter.

William H. Vanderbilt, who al
ways travels very fast when making
a journey by rail, in his recent trip
through the west was carried over
the irons at a more rapid pace then
ever. Between Lima and Dayton,
O., his train made the distance of
seventy-four miles in sixty sixty-

There is perhaps no greater draw-
dack upon the prosperity of a com
munity than bad roads. No farmer
can get his produce to market or
his surplies to his farm except by
using the county roads; and if these
are bad, hauling both ways becomes
intolerably expensive. Besides,
people who are looking for new
homes shun localities where such
roads are found.
