FRUITS OF EXPERIENCE.
• Chicago News.)
1 slipped the leash of care one night
And journeyed forth to see
If I could finl some new delight
To thri.l the heart of me.
For home’s deiight3 were stale and old
And on.y could annoy;
1 craved as mine to have and hold
Some unfamiliar joy.
I traveled round about tL'o town
And bravely entered in
To palaces of great renown
And joined In pleasure's din.
I entered splendid p aces such
As make the fancy soar;
Each thrill I got excited much
The thrill which went before.
But I was hunting far and near
The thri.l of thrills most great;
I emend p.aces strange and queer,
1 i anted early, late.
At last I felt despair, which stills
Ambition’s striving—then
I found the t.vii.s of all the thrills
Wos getting home agajn-
POULTBY POSSIBILITIES IN THE
SOUTH.
Millions of acres of land all over the
_ South, close to good rai road stations
and easy of access to large cities can
be had at $5 to SIOO per acre. This
land will grow just as many fowls,
more months in ti.*e year than land
that cost several times this much in
the East and West. All of our South
ern lands yield readily to good cultiva- 1
tlon and high fertilization and it is no
trouble at all to produce fifty to one
hundred bushels of corn per acre or
fifty to one hundred bushels of wintef j
wheat per acre during the tim e that
they will not grow in the East and
West. This same land will also make :
from two to four hundred bushels of;
fall Irish potatoes that have a ready j
market of 90 cents per bushel for eat
ing purposes or *2 per bushel for
seed.
The wonderful little dairy cow, the
Jersey, thrives over the entire South
| equally as well as on the Isand of I
j Jersey. We can keep her at a low|
; cost and she will yield from one to
two pounds of butter per day which
will readily sell for 35 cents per
pound.
Our great city of Atlanta has over!
eight hundred dairies and it is impos
sible to supply the demand for milk at
40c per gallon and cream at $1.20 per
gallon, retail. The poultry and dairy
business work hand in hand. A milk
customer is almost always glad to get)
a supply of fresh eggs at 35 to 40 j
cents per dozen with the delivery of
milk.
Anyone, says a writer in the South
ern Financier, in discussing these
features of Southern life, can start in
a small way with a small amount of
capital in the South and if they will
use business judgment and energy and
work anyways near as hard as they do
in the average city store, they will j
soon become independent and have a[
business of their own for a very small I
amount invested. And the w’riter con
tinues.
“After traveling over good portion of
the United States, I know of no place)
that has a brighter future for a young
man to win fame and fortune than in
any of the Southern States. With
poultry, an old man, a frail woman or
even a child can provide a good living
without hard physical labor or half
the number of hours to work as do
millions of the women and children;
who are absolute slaves to labor in
the great cities of the East and West.
“As a rule, most of our Southern
people have made money too easy and
1 have been satisfied with an ordinary;
living and they cared very little for'
laying up fortunes or providing for a.
’rainy day.’ We see so many thrifty
people from the East and West com
ing into different sections of the South
who soon become rich. This is cre
ating new life in our Old South and the
day is coming, not so far distant, when
Georgia and many of her sister states'
will be The garden spot of the world.’
' Cotton is the King and always will
be as a money crop. As a vegetable
growing center, no p'.ace can equal the
South. Fruits and nuts of all kinds
grow like weeds. Cattle, hogs, horses
and an abundant supply of corn,
wheat, oat 3, cotton and every other
noted crop is produced so abundantly
in the South that she will never go
hungry.
“The poultry business is certainly
on the boom in the Southern States.
With the millionaires at the great
i winter resorts in the South during th e
winter waiting for our products, we
Lave the best market in the world for
the high quality staff that can be pro
duced here."

TEDDY’S VOTING COST
RAILROAD $320.
Had Special Car But Forgot
to Pay the Bill.
,!
,! New York, November 5-—-The World
; tells how Roosevelt’3 vote in 1901 cost
the Pennsylvania railroad $320.
I “Corporation expenditures for polit
ical purposes and especially such ex
penditures by public service corpora
tions, have supplied one of tbe prin
cipal sources of corruption in our po
, litical affairs."—'Col. Roosevelt at Os
!a watomie, Kans„ August 31.
Theodore Roosevelt became presi
dent of the United ;Siate.s on the death
of President McKinley, September 14,
. j 1901. The following November ne
; went from Washington to Oyster Bar
,to record his vote in the 6tate and
: municipal elections.
The campaign that had been waged
was against four years of corruption in
the city government under Mayor Rob
ert A. Van Wyck. It was a campaign
] against big and petty graft. It so ap
pealed to the honest voters of the
( 1 city that Van Wyck and his train of
( grafters were utterly rounted, and
,! Seth Low was elected by some 30,-
j 000 plurality.
.I Among those who cast their votes
| for Low, for honesty against graft
i was President Roosevelt. He left
. Washington at 11 a. m. on Monday,
November 4,. in the private car Lu
cania, and on his arrival in New York
(went to the home of his aunt, Mrs.
! James A. Roosevelt, at No. 4, West
: Fifty-seventh street. The" next day,
election day, he went to Oyster Bi\
to vote.
Accompanying the president on this
journey in the special car from Wash- j
ington were Mrs. Roosevelt, the pres I
ident’s secretaries, Dr. Rixey, the !
white Louse physician; Harry Pinck-!
ney, Mr. Roosevelt’s bodyguard, and
special car was attached to the Con
; numerous secret service men. Return
j ing to Washington the same day, his
I gressional Limited that left Jersey
jCity over the Pennsylvania railroad
j at 3:45 p. m.
j Commenting on the result of the
election In New York at that time.
President Roosevelt said:
"The news from New York is most
encouraging to the friends of good
government. It shows what th e peo
ple can do when they have the will
anti when they arise in their might,
for the overthrow’ of that which they
believe to be wrong.”
The cost to an ordinary citizen w’ho
wished to pay his railroad bill for
similar services would approximate
, $320.
I Mr. Roosevelt did not pay the Penn
sylvania railroad for the accommo
dations furnished. The bill is still
. unpaid.
When a cold becomes settled in the
system, it will take several days’ treat
ment to cure it. and the best remedy
[ to use is Chamberlain’s Cough Rem
edy. It will cure quicker than any
other, and also leaves the system in a
natural and healthy condition. Sold by
til Dealers.
