TOBACCO LAMBS ALNOG THE
GlA K. R.
The farmers along the Georgia
Ftailrod from Atlanta to Augusta
and its branches are seriously
debating the question of taking
up tobacco as a money crop. A
recent trip over the main line
from Atlanta to Crawfordville
showed that the lands along this
road are specially suited to grow¬
ing the very best* types of
bright tobacco. Rutledge
From Covington to identical
the lands are almost
with those around Wilson, in
North Carolina., where the tinefct
in the State is grown,
There is a light-gra.yi h topsoil,
with a subsoil low enough down
to make the very finest types of
yellow' tobacco. The forest
growth also indicates that thfs
section will produce the very
best tobacco that can be grown
There is an undergrowth of hard
woods, which are always found
on the best tobacco lands.
In the immediate vicinity of
Social Circle the lands are espe
daily tobacco lands of the highest
type, and the cotton growers
there, who are now making $30
worth of cotton to the acre,
could easily make $125.00 worth
of tobacco. I have never seen
finer tobacco lands any where iu
theCaroliuas than in the section
immediately around Social Circle.
Passing Greenesboro we come
into another very fiue type of
soil for bright tobacco, which
reaches a high degree of fertility
at Crawfordville. In the l5tawf
ordville section the farmers will
find that tobacco will flourish
and the average land in that sec¬
tion, with proper cultivation,
will produce from $100.00 to
$150.00 worth of tobacco per
acre. It is very likely that tobacco
will be taken up by the farmers
in this section the next season
as a money crop.
There are many readers of the
Southern Tobacco Journal work¬
ing worn-out .lands in the Car
olinas, who would find that a
chatige to the sections above de¬
scribed would be very beneficial.
These lands along the Georgia
Railroad have never been plant¬
ed iu tobacco. They are new
lands for this crop. The lands
are low in price and very easily
cultivated, and will produce easi¬
ly from 900 to 1200 pounds of to¬
bacco per acre They are sim¬
ilar to the best tobacco lands
along the Atlantic Coast Line in
South Carolina, A tew wide
awake fanners would find a hear
tv welcome among the farmers
along the Georgia Railroad,
as they are anxious to learn
about the tobacco crop. Lands

at the Academy. A good audi¬
ence greeted them and everybody
enjoyed hugely the splendid
music rendered by this remark¬
able family.
This talented family, and es¬
pecially the children are musical
prodigies. Little Sallie May,
aged 8, and Emmie, aged 5 years,
rendered “Mama, kissed me in in
a dream” so exceptionally fine
that the audience was wild with
applause. They were encored
the second time. Their piano
and vocal music was delightful.
Master Charlie is one of the
most polished violinist we have
ever heard at his age—13 years
old, and Master Harry handled
the cornet equal to a profession

PotatoesGrowing on Grass.
Mr. W. F. Bishop of Edgwood
in this county, brought a handful
of Irish potatoes to our office
Monday that were curiosities
indeed. Each potato had long
sprigs of Bermuda grass growing
through it. Some of the grass
had grown ten inches long after
passing through the potato,
while others had the sprigs
just peeping through the skin of
the potato after goiug through
the body. We have never seen
or heard of any thing like it be¬
fore. Mr. Bishop says he has
some Bermuda growing from the
ground up through an old post
over three feet high and it has
turned down and is almost grown
back to the ground again.
Burmuda is a great grass and
makes the finest of pasturage
and hay.

Mr. G. H. Snyder, a well known
citizen of Lawrence, Kan, said :
“I am now seventy j T ears of
age. About three years ago I ex¬
perienced a coldness or numbness
in the feet, then creeping up”my
legs until it reached my body. I
grew very thin in flesh, appetite
poor and I did not ielish my food.
At last I became unable to move
about. I consulted several dis¬
tinguished physicians, one telling
me I had locomotor ataxia, an¬
other that I had creeping paral¬
ysis. I took their medicines but
continued to grow worse. Almost
a year ago a friend advised me
to try Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills
for Pale People. Before I had
finished my first box I found they
were benefiting me. I used twelve
boxes in all, and was perfectly
cured. Although it is six months
since I used my last pill there has
been no recurrence of the disease.’*
