LEGAL NOTICES, CITATIONS. FERTILIZER WAR SEEMS IMMINENT pastor had found a nice young wo man entertaining a nice young man on the church steps because she had nowhere else to entertain him. New Plant at Savannah-Amerl- can Chemical Co. Invades tha Ceorgla-Carollna's Domain. A war for supremacy of this country’s fertilizer business seems imminent. Many millions of dol lars are to be utilized in an endeav or to obtain control of this branch of American industry, The first move in this campaign is the announcement that three new fertilizer plants will be constructed lby the American Chemical Com pany during the next year in the very heart of the territory covered by the Virginia-Carolina Chemical <Campany. vOne will be at Savannah, Ga., ■where the company has purchased 70 acres of land, and should be •completed early in 1911, as the con- (tracts have already been let. The .-second will be at Wilmington, N. -C., and the third at Columbia, S C- Work ou the latter two will be begun as soon as possible, and the entire three should be in operation *bv next summer. .Altogether the expenditures for ■■now construction will total some thing like $1,000,000, and as the American Agricultural Chemical lias a working capital of approxi mately 618,500,000, as shown by its recent annual statement, it is not likely that the construction •work contemplated will call for new . .financing, •Officials say the contemplated ex penditures for extensions will not affect the common stockholders’ po sition, as the move into the South- of ex- effcct for a long time. All common divi- •aifiid discussions have taken into - consideration the financial require- anonts in connection with that pol icy. While Amevican has always been ■n factor in the Southern field, the move of building three new plants •simultaneously cannot be construed otherwise than an/aggressive inva- •sion of the preserves of the Virginia- 'Carolina Chemical Company. An ^interest closely connected with the V.rginia-Carolina Company stated that the Southern field is largo enough for both, but generally in fertilizer circles the outlook for a trade war is considered excellent. The Virginia-Carolina is consid erably the larger of the two corpor- iitions, but the American has shown •a much more consistent record of growth over the last decade. Cure for Hog Cholera. Mayor Scott, of Moultrie, gives the following formula for a prepar ation which he guarantees to cure or prevent hog cholera. He has known it used for years without failure in a single case. He has known men who had tried it and were convinced of its curative pow ers. The formula is as follows: “Take equal parts by weight of pulverized ginger, sulphur, pulver ized saltpeter and black sulpliurctte of antimony. Mix thoroughly and feed in a mash. One tablespoonful per day to each hog when sick. As a preventive give from one to three doses per week. If the hog is able ro cat it will save him.” Georgia—Oracly County.

Olney, 111., Oct. 8.—Methodist churches in the Southern Illinois Conference herfeafter may provide •spooning parlors for their, young persons, under the auspices of Bish op McDowell. In his annual con ference sermon at Olney the bishop approved the maintenante of a par lor in the church where young wo men .might^receive, under proper ehaperonage, the young men who came a-wooing. The bishop.was making a modern application of the advice of the dis ciples before the miracle of the loaves and fishes to send the hungry multitude away from the mounti.ii.- sides into the villages to buy them selves something to (ygt. “And that,” he said, ‘‘has been the attitude of the church toward its young people. It says ‘send them away for the pleasures which their hearts crave. Send them away for their companionships and amusements.’ They can get it by going away. They cun get one kind of it nowadays for a nickel.” He told approvingly of a large Chicago church that opened a par- iar for courting couples after the GEORGIA—Gradv County, Notice is hereby given that the fol lowing tax levy for county purposes for the year 1910 was made and collec tion ordered to be made accordingly on Sept. 20, 1910, viz: Seventy cents on each Hundred Dol lars worth of property returned for taxation, which is sub-divided as fol lows: (1) Fifteen cents to pay legal in debtedness of the county due or to be come due during the year or past due; (2) twenty cents to build or repair court houses or jails, bridges or ferries, or other public improvements accord ing to the contract; (3) ten cents to >ay sheriffs’, jailers’ or other officers’ ees that they may be legally entitled to out of the county; (4) two cents to pay expenses of the county for bailiffs at court, non-resident witnesses in crim inal cases, fuel, servant hire and the like; (5) ten cents to pay jurors a per diem compensation; (6) six cents to pay expenses incurred in supporting the A Latter, Day Miracle. The successful transportation' of part of an eye from one living per son to another is the latest marvel of science of surgery. In New’ York the corner of a woman’s eye which she was forced to lose by an acci dent was grafted on to the eyeball of a Chinaman. Duter it was found necessary to reshape the pupil. At the Medico-Chirurgical hospitial in Philadelphia; the corner of a young man’s eye made blind by a Hying piece of steel was transferred to the eye of a woman who had been blind from infancy. After tw’enty days it was found that the woman could see for the first time in her life.— Success.

Folk usually know that higher priced goods are really worth twice the price of an inferior article. This fad can easily be verified; and more especially in the expenditure of good money for advertising space in newspapers. The Progress has set a fair price on it’s advertising space and does not cut under this price, neither does it “overcharge” anyone. The services of the best printers are employed, and for those who de sire the services of an advertising expert, we have one. ADVERTISED AT LAST / F*HERE was a merchant in oui * town Who was so wondrous wise He saw his business running down, Yet would not advertise. <^AID he; “I cannot see the sense w When trade is at its worst Of multiplying my expense. I’ll wait till trade comes first.” d T last this merchant, ill advised, * * Had naught to ( do but fail, And then the sheriff advertised A bankrupt auction sale.
