The county commissioners of Sum ter, through the personal direction of Supt Robert Christian, of tiro county roads department, are demonstrating what can be done In restoring waste and poor land through careful fertil ization, good, deep plowing and judi cious planting of crops. Sumter county owns a farm of two hundred acres, two miles west of Americus, and will make of It a ver itable garden paradise. For half a century It has been known as the county pauper farm, but only two or three of the county’s poor are kept there now. This year the county commissioners decided to op erate the farm for tiro benefit of the county. First of all, one of Sumter’s “good roads’’ leads through the farm, thus rendering It accessible. Hundreds of tons of stable fertil izer has been spread upon the area cultivated, and the magnificent crops show for it. Old fields have been cleared, put in culti’ ,'tlon, and are verdant with growing crops. Vast stretches of fine oats promise to feed the ninety mules owned by the county, while the green corn fields greet the eye a3 well. Supt. Christian has a vast truck farm also, in which he will raise supplies of potatoes, cabbage, collards, melons, etc., for tiro horde of eighty convicts engaged in road building here. This will greatly decrease the county’s ex pense, and besides provide better food for the convicts. In a pasture nearby Supt. Christian has a hundred fine stock, hogs and porkers, which will supply the gang In time with a goodly portion of their meat. The truck patches are work ed by convicts unfit for road duty thus costing the county absolutely no’hlng for labor. The commissioners are gratified at th j experiment of operating the coun ty’s farm. A few years ago this land would not have sold for $5 per acre Fifty dollars per acre would scarcely hnv It now. The Secret of Long Life. A French scientist has discovered one secret of long life.

Stone, a civil war veteran, of Kemp, Tex., that a plot ex isted between a desperate lung trou ble and the grave to cause his death. “I contracted a stubborn cold,” he writes, “that developed a cough that stuck to me, In spite of all remedies, for years.
