STANDING ROCK. FRAGMENTS Standing Rock, Ga., July I.—We 1 have two preaching days every month, ] Rev. Hodnetton the first Sunday and Rev. Tarpley on the second. We also , have a flourishing Sunday school with . large attendance. The Sacred Harp singing here last Sunday was a success in every way and * enjoyed by all who attended. We had two good showers of rain I Saturday and Sunday and everything ' looks fresh, although cotton and corn is small for the time of year. If cofton , doesn’t bring ten cents this fall it won’t be because the farmers don’t need it. From the appearance now through the country we don’t think there will be a large crop made this year. But the way it goes the cotton speculators keep the price of cotton down while the poor farmer has it in his bauds, but when the spring of tue next yehr comes they let it go up. What for? To increase the aei eage the coming year. As long as farmers pay fifteen cents a pound for meat, $1 a bushel for corn on tine and raise cotton at five and six cents they will never inherit anything but a hard living as long as they live. We are sorry to note the illness of Miss Laola Addy. Mrs. J. R. Arnold, of Tippellville, is visiting friends and relatives here and reports crops fine in South Georgia. ECTOR ECHOES.

Here is one of them : I sufferd from bleed ing end protruding piles for twenty years Was treated by different s ieoit’bsts and u.ed many rerue’ dies, but obtained no relief until I used DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve.
