The Dlflcaltle* of Editor Brown In
Joining ilf« Family.
H- C. Brown, of tbe San, bad qnite
an experience on hia trip to Florida,
While many little things oocured to
mar the pleasures of his trip yet he
speaks in very high terms of the
kind treatment that many of the
good people of tbe Orange State ex
tended him. Some of our citizens
were under tho impression that hia
home was in Gainsvillo, where yellow
fever has been raging for several
weeks. But not so. His home was
at Ivingstone, some distance below
Gainesville. In order to reach this
place he had to pnrBne a circuitous
route. To do this he had to engage
a horse and buggy and travel
through the country. Here is where
be encountered his most severe diffl
cutties, He says that sometimes he
would meet people in the road and
they would be so frightened at his
appearance, thinking him to be u ref
ugoe from tbe fever stricken district,
that they would bide themselves be
bind trees until bo passed by. If
be ventured too near a bouse to ask
for informafioa concerning his route,
he would sometimes be met by a
man with a gun, who would tell him
to make himself scarce or else re
ceive tbe contents of the gun. Of
course, he preferied the for
mer, as he had no inclina
tion whatever to offer his body as a
target for tbeir marksmanship, pre
ferring to invade the territory of yel
low jack and risk the chances. At
one bouse, wishing to obtain shelter
for the night, he drove into the yard
and proceeded to unhitch his horse
preparatory to going into the bouse
and sharing the hospitality of the
owner. The farmer came up just as
he had finished and invited him ido
the house. They were met at the
door by the old man’s daughter and
she, recognizing tbe presence of a
stranger, hurst into tearsand exclaim
ed; Oh. father I thought you said
you were not going to let any more
of those yellow fever people stay
here ! The father after expoBtulat
ing with her finally quieted her fears
and Mr. Brown, weary, broken down
and nearly famished, secured tbe
nights rest that he was so much in
need of. And thus .it was all along,
until, after enduring so many hard
ships he finally arrived at his destin
ation. Who would not undergo all
this to have such a beautiful wife to
greet him upon his return T Piet
ure to yourself, kind reader, the
pleasurable emotions that must
have flashed through his heart as his
beautiful wife, with arms extended
meets the poor wayworn travelerion
his arrival home and then will you
not agree with the writer when he
says even death could be faced with
a smilo under such circumstances.
Mr. Brown finally succeeded in
bringing away with him his wife
and together they took their depart
ure from the land of flowers, she to
visit in Albany, he to return to Grif
Inland assumo his duties with the Sun
whore she will soon join him, and it
is said, will furnish that paper with
some spicy articles from her brilliant
pen, which, backed by a fertile brain,
will no doubt create quite a sensa
tion iu newsp iper circles. We cor
dialy welcome her into our charming
little city.
OUR COTTON REPORT.
Receipts Nearly One Half Greater
Than this Date Last Year.
The past week has been lively and
active in cotton, notwithstanding a
slight decline in price. Receipts of
nearly two theusand bales make a
very good showing for Griffin. The
following is the official icport for
the week ending Friday morning,
October 12th :
Receipts for week..........1,834
Receipts since Sept 1.........5,381
Shipments for week..........1,808
Shipments I for season.......4,506 '
Stock.......................861
The price yesterday for middling
was 8| (J, 9c., closing firm at the lat
ter figure late, in the evening.
On Friday there were received
413 bales, and yesterday 426 bales,
making the aggregate to date 6,220
bales. From Latham, Alexander <£
Co’s handsome compendium, just re
ceivcd by tbe News, we see that the
total receipts last year up to October
14th were 4,348 bales, so that we
are nearly 2,000 bales ahead this year
notwithstanding the iatenegs of tbe
season. The receipt* for the week
ending October 14th, 1887, were on
ly 1,159 bales, while tbe receipts for
the week ending Ocjober 12th, 1S88,

A SATISFACTORY TEST.
The Best Cotton Seed and Corn Crusher
Yet Invented,
We had the pleasure on Thursday of
witnessing the operation of » new cot
ton seed and corn crusher just put up at
Drewrv’s gin mill by Mr, J. W. Butler,
of the Chattanooga Plow Co. It has
hitherto been found impossible to get a
seed crusher (that would work rapidly
and effectually with small power and yet
not gum up or iheat the journals ; but
all these desired ends seem to bo satis
factorily attained iu this uew machine.
In the first place, it was run easily at
full speod without perceptible effect
upon the power of a twenty horse power
engine uugaiiu which nuxvu was " already ---—-- J doing — 'o the
work of twenty five horse power by run
three gins, a press, a snetion eleva
tor and a seed conveyer with eighty-
pounds of steam. The principles of the
machine are simple, though entirely
new in this application, and their adop
tion admirable. The seed is crushed be
twetu two shallow Hanged hard steel
burrs revolving toward the same point,
one with 850 revolutions per minute tho
other at one^tliird that speed. The mills
capacity in speed, however, is 1200 revo
lotions. The inner part of these burrs
are made of softer metal, with iutetvals
to allow for expansion and contraction.
A simple shield keeps all sand and dirt
out t f the journals, the latter being of
the best metal for the purpose and de
taehable when necessary,though no beat
could be felt after an hour’s steady run
ning. Tbe grinding burrs are held in
position by a strong spring, adjusted by
a bolt, so that any too hard foreign sub
stance falling between would pass
through without injury to the mill. The
feed is regulated or cat off entirely by
a simple lever arrangement.
Tbe test was made upon some very
hard seed which had been heated and
nearly spoiled, and was in every way ut
the machine working smooth
and not a seed passing through with
being crushed. At a low rate of
fifty pounds of this seed were
in three minu’es, while fresh
seed worked much quicker. The
will crush 600 bushels of the
seed in a day, or 1000 bushels
good seed. It is equally efficacious
corn or cow peas, and altogether is
a machine as every farmer with any
should have. By its use, with
pounds of cotton seed, 500 of Kai
500 of^ammonia, ho can make a fer
equal to the best for $11.25 a ton.
For farther particulars the reader is
to D. W. Patterson, who will
as agent iu Griffin. Specimens of
crashed seed may also be seen at
office.
