■Question. —Please give mo in detail
some of the principal sources of wealth
of the s >uth as at. present utiiizea, and
why is w, if there is so much wealth us
we are led to believe, that tho country
is not more prosperous ?
Answer. —T4»o greatest income of tho
soutii i's derived from cotton and its
products, grain and its products, rice,
sugar, tobacco, fruit, vegetables and
the products of the pine tree. The
south has also its stock farms, its man
factoring, mining, merchandising,
building, transportation and other in¬
terests—bringing into the country about
$1,300,000,0000 annually. One principal
reason that tho south receives so little
benefit from the vast wealth is that sho
spends it with almost absolute unre¬
straint on other sections of our own
country, and to fill the coffers of for¬
eign nations. With perhaps a few un¬
important exceptions, the south is abso¬
lutely dependent on the outside world

For three months she coughed incessantly,

Consumption, and was so much relieved

rO(i UGDll J)1 io* is it a safe feed for cat
tie and hog •' i i. now that it ih danger

Answer I would udvise against the
feeding of damage l corn to stock of
every description While u little of it,
fed tocatti- a:i i hogs along with other
food, might hoc prod a™ serious results,
it could not, if much damaged, benefit
them materially, If cattle or hogs
should bo confined and fed exclusively
on damaged corn for n considerable
length of time. I have no doubt that
serious siokic’ss and death wouid result
to many of the animals. In addition
to this, I am ure that the meat from
animals so fed would neither be as pala,
table nor wlioiertome as that produced
by feeding sound urain. It is a well
known fact that the fl -sli of animals is
flavored by the food they eat, and an ex
jiusive diet of damaged corn must, in
my opinion, result in badly flavored,
and possibly, unwholesome moat. Of
course, the resuits I have suggested
would depend a goad deal 011 tho ex
tent to which the corn might lie dam
aged, and this is not stated in your
question, bu. a3 a general proposition

I should adviso against baying dam¬

Just here I will take occasion to no¬
tify you and the other farmers of the
state that much damaged corn has been
shipped into Georgia from tho west,
and those of you who are unfortunately
forced to buy western corn should ex¬
amine it carefully before purchasing,
and reject, all that is not absolutely
sound, otherwise yon cudanger the
