SEVERAL CITIZENS HAVE UN
DER CONSIDERATION THE
PLANTING OF ORCHARDS.
" A number of citizens of the countyi
have become interested in peaches as
a profitable crop, and the indications |
are that a number of orchards will be!
set out in Terrell county in the next
few months. Before taking any decisive
steps, however, it is proposed to havel
a public meeting at which the matter
will be discussed in all its phases and!
information given by expert growers.
With that end in view the ‘followingl
call has been issued for a meeting at
the court house in Dawson on next
Friday morning, August 19th: ‘
Call E}or Meeting. ]
To the Farmers and Business, Men“
of Terrell County: It is needless for
us to say that we are facing a crisis,
and that the farmers of Terrell county |
are in serious trouble. We must make
a change. Many of our people have
been discussing the planting of peach
orchards. We know that we can grow
peaches, but we know but little about
the cost of planting and maintaining
an orchard. We believe it would be
well for all interested to meet at the
court house in Dawson on Friday,
August 19th, at 10 a. m.,, when a gen
eral discussion can be had. We have
invited some practical and experienced
growers to meet with us. They can
give us valuable information. Come
out. It will cost nothing to discuss and
learn, whether you plant an orchard
or not. Yours truly, H. A. Petty, E.
H. Stapleton, H. A. Wilkinson, W. M.
Holland, T. H. Williams, J. C. Hol
land, J. A. Shields.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, &s they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure catarrhal deafness,
and that is by & constitutional remaedy.
Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an In
flamed condition of the_mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have a rumbling sound or im
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed, Deafness is the result. Unless the
inflammation cen be reduced and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever. Many cases of
deafness are caused by catarrh, which Is
an inflamed condition of the mucous sur
faces. Hall's Catarrh Medicine acts thru
the blood on the mucous surfaces of the
system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Catarrhal Deafness that cannot
be cured by Hall's Catarrh Medicine. Cir
culars free. All Druggists. 78¢.

TERRELL COUNTIANS INVES
TIGATE FRUIT AS MONEY
CROP. MEET THURSDAY.
“After taking a trip through the sec
tion of Alabama where strawberries
are extensively grown for market we
heartily endorse the movement now on
foot to organize an association in Ter
rell county for growing this fruit. We

not near so difficult and expensive to
grow as we first thought.”

E. Cushenberry, J. W. Bridges, Geo-
K. McLain, W. D.-and B. M. David
son, R. G. Kennedy, J. A. Winslow,
agricultural agent of the Central rail
road, A. W. Conner, agricultural agent
of the Seaboard Air Line railroad, and
W. J. Boyett, district farm demon
strator. i
A meeting will be held at the court
house Thursday afternoon at 3 o’clock
for the purpose of formally organizing
an association, and all who are inter
ested in the movement are urged to
be present. Talks will be made by
members of the party who made the
trip to Alabama, and they will tell
what they saw and learned.
Mr. J. E. Cushenberry, who is one
of the promoters of the organization

STOCKHOLDERS AGREE TO
PAY IN 40 PER CENT, AND
RESUME BUSINESS.
The Farmers Bank, at Bronwood,
which was closed some weeks ago by
the state superintendent of banks, will
in all probability resume business at
an early day. This was practically,
agreed on at a meeting of the stock
holders Friday, when the proposition
of Mr. Bennett, the superintendent of
banks, that 40 per cent of the capital
stock, or $lO,OOO, be paid in, was ac
cepted.
The meeting was attended by Mr.
Chas. Lightner, representing the At
lanta National Bank, the largest credi
tor of the Bronwood bank. The At
lanta bank has agreed to extend pay
ment of securities it holds, and other
creditor banks have taken similar ac
tion. It is understood that depositors
bhave agreed to accept time certificates
due in nine months.
Bronwood is thriving little town sit
vated in one of the best agricultural
sections of the state, and its enterpris
ing citizens need a good bank, which
they evidently are determined to have.
