Valdosta, Ga., Jan. 61.—Pro fessor \V. 11. Merritt, of this city, candidate for state school commis sioner makes the following an nouncement : To thjc Pkoplk ok Geouoja: The fact that so many have Iwen urged to announce is very strong evidence of the state-wide desire for a change in the office of state school commissioner. “The demand for a change by so many thoughtful people; the demand for a more practical and harmonious administration of school affairs; the innumoral crit icisms, many of which are well founded, seem to overbalance the claims of the incumbent to a fifth term. “.4mong the gentlemen who were urged to become candidates, 1 was in favor of one whose inter est, sympathies and earnest activ ities have for years been given to the cause of education as opportu nities presented; a man whom the people of Georgia have many times entrusted with positions of honor and responsibility. It is a matter of regret that his health would not permit him to accept this office at the hands of his fel low-citizens. “The providing of ample and efficient, school facilties for the rural districts of Georgia is the most important question ed wit h t he future growth and de velopement of our state. The burning issue now is, how can the present state fund be so expanded as to give the best results to the masses of the children of the ru ral districts. “For t hirty years there has been operated in Georgia a so-called common school system, and yet no definite plan for the systematic education of the children of the masses, on sound educational principles, has been devised or put into operation by the execu tive head of our schools. In the earlier history of the system, when the funds provided were small, and w hen teachers and boards of education were not so efficient as now, there were undoubtedly good reasons for an absence of syste matic work, but now, with a state fund of one million five hundred thousand and with teachers, many of whom have been trained for their work at the state’s expense, and with school officers growing in efficiency every year, there can be no acceptable excuse offered for the continued lack of plan and system. “It is true that large numbers of towns and cities in the state have excellent school systems in which the well-rounded education of Ihe children in their jurisdic tion is sought, but these are the results of the efforts of local VIRGINIA— C.VUOIjINA CHEMICAL.

His special work —the work for which he paid—is with the county schools. “To inaugurate and operate a real system of common schools in Georgia, three tilings are necessa ry: first, a knowledge of the act ual educational conditions exist ing in the state; second, the abili ty to plan a system to meet these conditions and to see that this plan is executed; third, a willing ness to put time and labor in tin place where it is needed, instead of wasting time and expense money in gratuitous labors in local systems where the state superintendent has absolutely no authority. “There is a striking clause in the school law touching the visits of the state school commissioner to the several counties. It says these visits shall be ‘for the pur pose of examining into the ad ministration or the school law, cornice!ing with school officers de livering popular addresses, in specting school operations and do ing such other acts as he may deem subservient to the interest of popular education.’ “Among these duties, we think the fourth on the list should re ceive due attention. No amount of ‘popular addresses,’ etc., can compensate for a lack of ‘inspect ing school operations.’ “From a long connection with Georgia’s educational system, as pupil, teacher and superintendent, I have become convinced that the emphatic needs of Georgia schools is system —a different plan from the elementary education of all the children of our state. The members of the educational boards by whom I am now em ployed, and other friends, have kindly expressed their confidence in my ability to discharge the du ties of the office. Educational questions and practical school work have claimed the best ener gies of my life. I have used every opportunity of becoming familiar with all the educational work of the state and the object, and pur pose of every line of this work has ray approval and cooperation. “As special opportunities of learning the needs and conditions of the common schools have been afforded me, I feel that my train ing and experience lit me for the satisfactory performance of the duties of the state school superin tendent, and with a sincere desire of serving her highest interest in this way, I announce ray candi dacy for the office of' state school commissioner, subject to the Dem ocratic nomination.

Discussing the “model farm” a writer in the Independent finds, in contradistinct ion to the trend in; industrial affairs, that the ten dency in agriculture is leading to ward small farms and more thor ough tillage. The • American farmer has been doing this thing wrong for generations. He has been loading himself with broad acres to such an extent that real productive capacity of America is an unknown quantity. He has to pay taxes on wide infertile areas without return. He is com pelled to erect great buildings for the storage of crops which some times come and some time fail. Time was, and is now, to a great extent when the farmer considered himself poor if he could not look at a whole section of land and call it his. He forgot that one part of his posession was brush, another swamp land, another briar. He had, not yet come to the notion that his comparitively small tilla ble acreage was worth more alone than when combined with the rest of his square miles But the farmer is changing his mind. He has been thinking these things over and in time will come to the point whore he will bt* satisfied with the smallest possi ble acreage which will produce the greatest comparative profit. He will put under cultivation im mense areas now given over to waste, will make more money and lie much happier, his burden of responsibility decreasing with his diminished acres.

Wljen shooting landlords was ; morf of an occupation in Irealnd j thf tis now, thanks to laws more fav6. ble to tenants, a certain lord of the soil, who had cleared out half a countryside, fell under the ban of the Carders or of the redoubta ble Rory of the Hills, and two men were selected to carry out the sen tence of death. It was the doomed man’s custom to drive from his rent office in a neighboring town to his home at a certain hour on a certain day of the week, and secure in the bracken behind a stone wall which skirted the roadway the execution ers lay in wait for their intended victim. The hour came and passed, but no car bearing the landlord hove in view. Another hour slipped by, and still no landlord. It was now late in the afternoon, the shadows of night were creeping over the moor land, and the two watchers had grown hungry and uneasy. Then there was a rattle of wheels over.the broken stones on the roadway, and the men grasped their blunderbusses and peered out. But it was only a farmer driving from the market. This disappointment was too much for the men, and one of them ex claimed : “Begorra, Mick, he’s not cornin’.” “Faix, then, Pat, I’m tkinkin’ that way mesclf. I hope nothin’s hap pened to him.” Hopeless Case. The laziest man in Scotland is said to have been the Galashiels joiner who after repeated dismissals from his employment by his master was at length forcibly laid in his coffin by his shopmates and carried off for burial by way of a .joke. On the way they met a fanner, who ask ed if the man was dead. “No,” was the reply, “but we in tend to bury him. lie is that lazy he should not be allowed to live.” At the farmer’s request they took off the lid, when the farmer asked the lazy one if he thought he could eat two or three boiled potatoes. “Are they peeled?” inquired the man. “No,” replied the farmer. “Ah, weel, just let the funeral gang on.” —London Answers. Counsel to Smokers. From the Royal academy of Bel gium comes the following advice to smokers: “Do not use moist tobacco, since nicotine then escapes with the va por and is not decomposed. “Do not smoke either while fast ing or a short time before meals. “When smoking cigars or ciga rettes, always use an amber, meer schaum, horn or cherry holder. “Nicotine vaporizes at 250 de grees, and that portion of it which is not decomposed in the center is attracted toward the tip and ac cumulates there.

WERNIAN, OF BALTIMORE, SAYS: Baltimore, Md., March 30, 1901. Gentlemen: Being entirely cured of deafness, thanks to your treatment, I will now give you a full history of my case, to be used at your discretion. About five years ago my right ear began to sing, and this kept on getting worse, until I lost my hearing in this ear entirely. I underwent a treatment for catarrh, for three months, without any success, consulted a num ber of physicians, among others, the most eminent ear specialist of this city, who told me that only an operation could help me, and even that only temporarily, that the head noises would then cease, but the hearing in the affected ear would be lost forever. I then saw your advertisement accidentally in a New York paper, and ordered your treat ment. After I had used it only a few days according to your directions, the noises ceased, and to-day, after five weeks, my hearing in the diseased ear has been entirely restored. I thank you heartily and beg to remain Very truly yours, F. A. WERMAN, 730 S.
