“Drawing Trade.”
A merchant in town says Rev. Dr.
W. H. Potter, of the Wesleyan
Christian Advocate, of Macon, Ga.,
wants a clerk. What for ? Has he
more business than he and his
partner and the bright boy reared
up in his store, can attend to ? Oh!
no. They three could do twice as
much business as he has; indeed the
one clerk]could do it and be glad of
the opportunity if his wages were
correspondingly increased. What
then does he want another clerk
for ? To “draw trade from the
country.’? He keeps his former
clerk on small wages, and casts
about in his mind for a lad in
the country who is popular, has a
good address, and is extensively
connected. He is not long in find
ing one. The young man, allured
by the prospect of living in town
and “seeing things,” and wearing
ing good clothes every day, readily
accepts a small salary and moves
to town. What comes of this?—
Some things always; some other
things, frequently. A promising
boy is taken from the field, his plow
is stopped forever; a producer of
corn, cotton, wheat,oats, fruit, milk,
butter, poultry, and all other kind
of farm products is drawn to town
to stay. The most active Sunday-
school scholar, who has done most
to keep his class together, and to
encourage the superintendent and
pastor, is drawn off and leaves the
little church in the country weak
and discouraged. He adds nothing
to the volume of trade in town-that
is lessened by whatever amount he
would have produced on the farm.
He simply “draws” trade away
from some other house in the same
or neighboring town, to the house
with which he is connected. The
competing house must seek to re
cover the lost trade by getting some
otherineighborhood.Thusjthe result
is, two, three, or four young men
are drawn from the fields where
their labors were productive and
remunerative, to town where their
labor adds not a cent’s value to
anything. The whole business of
the town could have been done as
well, prabably better, without them.
Now, of the things which frequent
ly happen, we may mention as the
saddest of all, the bright
promising boy is ruined. He is
there to draw trade; competition is
sharp, and to succeed,he is tempted
to hold out false inducements to his
customers, to discredit the compet-
liouse, to become “liale-fellow-well-
met” with men from his neighbor
hood’ whose example is poison, to
invite them to places of amuse
ment, and worse places. He has
no prominence in the churchy
thinks himself of no importance to
the town church, assumes to be
slighted by the pastor, distrusts the
simple hearted religion of boyhood
and goes headlong to the devil.—
If his course be not so downward
and short, in forty- nine case s out
fifty, he becomes at least only a
a tolerable’merchant, his life being
more of a failure than a success.—
“Drawing trade” has drawn him
from a useful and peaceful vocation
into the perils and troubles of an un-
p rofitable.—Southern Cultivator.
Canning Fruit.
Please give the best receipt for
canning tomatoes, blackberries,
peaches, and apples and other fruit.
—Mrs. J. H. S., Red Hill, Ga.
Answer.—Scald or steam, not
cook tomatoes so the skin will peel
readily. Have jars hot, put in to
matoes carefully after peeling with
out mashing, fill up completely and
add juice, which escaped while peel
ing, to fill up all" interstices, seal
tight and keep in a cool, dark place.
For fruits; start with syrup made
with one pound of sugar to a pint of
water, heat and when it boils add
as much fruit as it will cover, this
checks the boiling; when it boils
again take out fruit and put in jars,
adding enough syrup to fill the jars,
seal up and store away as above.—
To keep up supply of syrup, add
more sugar and water as may be
needed.
—Southern Cultivator.
Farm and Garden Notes.
Make straight fences.
Grapes grow well on hillsides.
Sweet corn likes sandy, dry soil.
Do not let the boys shoot the
birds.
Sprinkle onion beds with hot wa
ter to destroy the maggots.
Osage oranges should be pruned
three times during the summer.
Give the cows a daily supply of
salt and they will not meddle with
old bones.
Put plaster on light lands. Use
phosphates for corn and potatoes
on heavy Avet soils.
Keep the soil about young fruit
trees mellow and clean for two or
three feet on each side.
Cottonseed meal is excellent for
cows and sheep, but should never
be given to pigs and horses.
Sulphur burned under a tree in
fested with curculio will cause the
insects to drop instantly.
There is nothing more discourag
ing than dull tools. Keep your
hoes sharp.
An open barrel placed over rhu
barb plants sometimes develops
long growth and pale stems.
Rub the heads of newly hatched
chicks with lard and sulphur, just
a trifle of the latter.
Place corn cobs, dipped in coal
tar, among the cucumber vines to
drive away the striped bug.
Do not let dirt get into milk and
then depend on the strainer to get
it out. You cannot strain out the
flavor.
Dr. Goessman thinks the peach
trees which have the yellows con
tain less potash and more lime than
healthy trees.
As soon as melon and squash vi
nes begin to spread, hoe in a little
fine manure or wood ashes between
the hills.
The poorest land will produce a
good crop of cow peas. Rich land
raises too much vine. Sow one bu
shel to the acre.
An experimenter who tried am
monia on strawberries says that he
had a double crop. It alsu bright
ened the flowers of chrysanthe
mums.
The French prefer jars to baskets
or strawberries. The jars allow
the berries to become somewhat
“soddened,” and therefore sweeten
ed.
Beets, carrots, wurtzels, rutabag
as and many varieties of potatoes
will yield larger and better crops,
with a great deal labor, and which
will keep in much better condition
when sown the 1st of June than if
sown the 1st of May, as is more
commonly the case.
Pear slugs feed on the epidermis
of the leaves and live on the ribs of
the leaf. The following year the
tree will not bear a full crop. Dry
dust or powdered lime thrown on
the leaves, or sulphur and powder
ed lime destroy them. Through
washing with whale oil and soap
and sulphur is the best.
Manure for Turnips—Oats after Oats,
1. What is the best manure for
turnips? The variety best suited to
Middle Georgia for an early fall
turnip for market, and how to sow
them ?
2. Will it do to follow oats after
oats for three or four years in suc
cession to make the land softer, or
increase the humus in it, so it can
be cultivated ? sThe land I speak of,
is stiff black, flat and hard. Tell me
what do do with it.
3. Does a mule ever have a chron
ic lung trouble, or consump
tion ? If so, what is good for them ?
—Constant Reader, Walden, Ga.
Answer.—1. The turnip is more
benefilted by the phosphates than
any other one manure, but requries
also a liberal supply of nitrogen and
potash. Cotton seed meal and acid
phosphate, equal parts by weight
make a good manure for the turnip.’
The Early Flat Dutch is the best
for an early crop. Sow from mid
dle of August to middle of Septem
ber.
2. Let oats follow oats for several
years. After oats are harvested,
let grass and weeds have full play,
and early in September turn them
under and sow oats, applying _200
to 300 pounds of cotton seed meal
and 300 pounds acid phosphate per
acre.
3. Yes; little can be done for it.
Need Of Economy.
One of the hardest lessons in life for
young people to learn is to practice
economy. It is a harder duty for
a young man to accumulate and
save his first .$1,000 than his next
$10,000. A man can be economical
without being mean, and it is one
of his most solemn duties to lay up
sufficient in his days of strength
and prosperity to provide for him
self and those who are or may be
dependent upon him in days of
sickness or misfortune. Extravag
ance is one of the greatest evils of
the present age. It is undermining
and overturning the loftiest and
best principle that should be retain
ed and held sacred in society. It is
annually sending thousands of
young men and young women to
ruin and misfortune.
Cultivate, then, sober and indus
trious habits; acquire the art of put
ting a little aside every day a«d
for your future necessary and fool
ish expenditures. Spend your time
only in such a manner as shall bring
you profit and enjoyment, and your
money for such things as you act
ually need for your comfort and
happiness and you will prosper in
your lives, your business, and will
win and retain the, respect and hon
or of all substantial people.
Ciesar had bow legs. Napoleon
was bow-legged. Lord Palmerston
had caricature legs, and so did Dis
raeli. Alexander Pope was hunch
backed and had a cripple’s leg; so
did Cowper. Plutarch tells that
Alexander’s left leg'was'badly out
plumb. Hannibal had notoriously
bigjheels and was knock -kneed.
Cicero was very spindle-shanked,
and Demosthenes is said to have
had a shuffling, stumbling gait,
which meant that his legs were not
wholly in gear.

A Tale of Two Crutches-
A Well Known Citizen of At
lanta Lays Down his Crutches.
I have only a few words to say, which
are to state that I have been confined to
my bed for two mouths with what was
called Nervous Rheumatism, or Sciatica.
I was only enabled to hobble about
occasionally by the use of crutches, and
in this condition I commenced the use of
B. B. B., four bottles of which enabled
me to discard the use of my crutches and
attend to business. I had previously used
all well recommended medicines without
relief. It has been over two months since
using B. B. B., and I co ns ider myself
a permanently cured man.

Frightful Nasal Catarrh.
PIECES OF BONE.
For four years 1 have been afflicted with
a very troublesome catarrh of the head
So terrible has its nature been that when
I blew my nose small pieces of hones
would frequently come out of my mouth
and nose. The discharge was’eopious and
at times exceedingly offensive. My blood
became so impure that my general health
was greatly impaired, with poor appetite
and worse digestion
Numerous medicines were used without
relief, until I began the use of B. B. B.,
and three bottles acted almost like magic.
Since their use not a symptom lias returned
and I feel in every way quite restored to
health. I am an old citizen of Atlanta, and
refer to almost any one living on Butler
street, and more particularly to Dr. L, M.
Gillam, who knows of my case.

These celebrated Liver pills contain
three medicinal elements of rare and won
derful efficacy—the concrete juices of

est medical authorities, nothing is known
in pharmacy or medicine to equal their
therapeutic action upon the Liver and
Blood. Triplex Liver Pills act directly
on the Liver: cure Chills and Fever, Dys
pepsia, Sick Headache, Billious Colic,
Constipation, Rheumatism, Piles, Palpi
tation, Dizziness, Torpid Live.i, Coated
Tongue, Sleeplessness and all Diseases
of the Liver and Stomach . If you do
not “feel very well,” a single pill at bed
time stimulates the stomach, restores
the appetite, imparts vigor to the system.
The remarkable success which has at
tended the use of the Triplex Pills just
ly entitles them to he denominated the
best Liver pill and autl-billios medicine
evrr introduced; and, like a True Friend
when once known will he appreciated
and prove a blessing to the world! Try
