Good Luck to A!
Hie yeat lbS t is passed, and a new one is again upon us
It behooves everybody who till’s the soil to be on the lookout and
make bis preparations for a new crop, and also consult bis own
interest, and use such Fertilizers as will prove most beneficial to
land and plant. From the many testimonials below will be seen
that the Franklin Ammoniated Dissolved Bone has been used bv
a great many of our best planters and citizens of this county for
several years with great satisfaction. I claim to sell this year,
jybo, a still better article than ever. The Guano is made up en-
tirely of animal matter and such other ingredients as are most
available to the plant and a good food for same, this assurance
having been made me by the company’s general agent, for whom
I am selling. 1 therefore invite everybody to get my prices before
purchasing elsewnere. Special terms and prices to parties who
buy car load lots. The different brands of Guano which I handle
are Rialto Guano, Grange’s Mixture, Franklin’s Ammoniated
Dissolved Bone and Franklin’s Acid. Below is the analysis of
the Franklin, samples of which can be seen at the office of H.
Franklin in Waynesboro. Respectfully,

Mr. S. Schwarzweiss, Agent for Franklin's Ammoniated Dissolved Done
and Franklin's Acid, Waynesboro, Ga.
Dear Sir: There seems to have been a report started in this part of
the county that the FRANKLIN GUANO is not up to the standard, and
not as represented by you. As yon have sold a groat deal of the Guano,
and I having bought largely of it myself, in order to satisfy myself and
friends as to the quality of the Guano, I had a member of the State
Chemistry, General Thomas, of Atlanta, to come down and take a sam
ple of the Franklin Guano to analize. I received an answer a few days
ago, in which he states that the Guano is all right, in every respect up to
the standard, and contains the full amount of ingredients as branded on
the sacks. This will probably afford you a great deal of satisfaction, as
it will those w'ho are using the Franklin Guano. Very respectfully,
(Signed.) R. T. JONES,

Mr. S. Schwarzweiss, Agent, Waynesboro, Ga.
Dear Sir: Since writing to you last April about the FRANKLIN
GUANO, 1 will now state that 1 distributed the Frartklin along side the
Good Luck and Turner Guano, all equal valuation, the latter having
been used by me in old ante-bellum days, and was then known to be as
good a guano as there was coming South. It cost me this year fifty dol
lars per ton, spot cash, at factory in Baltimore, and I have the assurance
from the maker that the Guano is now as good as ever, and up to the
old standard. Also the Good Luck is considered an A ono Guano. My
crops have all received equal attention and work, and I never could dis
cover any difference on my crops where the different guanos were dis
tributed. Tins proved to me that the Franklin is as good as any. I
surely shall use the Franklin again next year. Very respectfully,
(Signed.) ROB’T. T. JONES.

Mr.S. Schwarzweiss, Agent, Waynesboro, Ga.
Dear Sir: In reply to yours of late date inquiring about the Franklin
Ammoniated Dissolved Bone, will say since the last six years, during
which time I have used the Guano, it has more than pleased ine, and
surpassed any I have ever used, and has proven itself all that is claimed
for it. I shall increase the amount used by me this year, thirty-five tons,
to fifty tons next year. Yours very truly,
(Signed.) W. J. HATCHER.

Dear Sir: In answer to your inquiry about the FRANKLIN GUANO
used by me during this year, will state that it is the only kind of Ferti
lizer used by me this season, and I am more than pleased with the result.
Will buy from you again next year. Yours very respectfully,

Dear Sir: Your favor of the 1st inst. inquiring about the FRANKLIN
GUANO, bought from you the past season, came duly to hand. In reply
will state that I have used this year the Ratapsco, State Standard and
Frunkliji’s Ammoniated Dissolved Bono. The hitter proved to ho equal
ly as good as the other Fertilizers that l have used and expect to buy
from you again next year. Very respectfully,

Dear Sir: All I can say In answer to your Inquiry of November 1
about the FRANKLIN GUANO, that the same lias done better for ine
than any guano I ever used, and I am now planting for forty-three years,
I distributed the Franklin Guano alongside theCheasapeak, and 1 could
tell the difference on my crop even on a dark night and distinguish
where the Franklin was from the other by the larger weed and the
^quantity of fruit. I shall use no other for next year than the Franklin.

According to previous notice in
these columns, Prof. Demarec ap
peared and delivered a lecture at
the Baptist church, on last Monday

strange, or startling in the gentle
man’s discourse—indeed, it was the
same story of the abuse of intoxi
cating liquors which has been ever
recognized and deplored by those
even who are most addicted to this
terrible and desolating habit. No
sane man can advocate the exces
sive use, or rather, the abuse, of in
toxicating liquors. All men every
where deem it the great national
evil. This fact is established. Then
comes the grave question, how is it
to he eradicated or restrained?—
The most stringent laws and the
most vjterrihle oaths which human
ingenuity have teen able to devise
have all failed, and the evil is
said to he growing worse. We are
free to confess that its eradication
is a question with which we, are
too weak to grapple, J Let the way

pointed out, and ifwill find in us an
earnest advocate. We see hut
one means available to even retard
this giant monster which stalks
through the land destroying men
in the full blaze of the high noon of
day as if they were pigmies. And
that is by and through the home
government and teaching. So long
as parents fail or refuse to compel
obedience from their children, and
allow them unrestraind liberty to
indulge their unformed tasts and to
form vicious habits, so long will not
only the evil of drunkenness but
every other crime in the cat
alogue continue to increase.—
Many a beautiful hoy who was too
tender at six to he coerced into
obedience, was tough enough at
twenty-five to wear state’s prison
stripes, or swing from a gibbet.—
Fathers of forty-five and fifty years
of age know that they allow their
boys liberties and indulgences that
as Boys they dared not so much as
to think of. The fathers are honor
able citizens—the fate of the boys
is very uncertain. The reform
must be made at home; laws aud
oaths have all failed to effect,it.—

Mr. Ed. Carter reports that during
the last ten or twelve days fourteen
mad dogs have hit the dust under
his unerring aim, aud by tho agency
of his trusty “double-barrel.” The
cause of the appearance of so many
rabid dogs is a little strange, and a
little ludicrous. Some two weeks
ago a rabid dog passed through the
quarters on tho Barrett place, of
which Mr. Carter is superintendent.
The darkles, (all of whom owned
one or more curs) concluded that it
was a fine opportunity to have some
fun by making their dogs whip tho
stranger, and calling up their curs
put them to work on the vicious
stranger. Tho strange dog was
rabid, and hit every dog on the
place, all of widely went mad, and
was killed as above stated. It is
not known where tho strange dog
came from, or how many animals
lie has inoculated with hydrophobia,
we hope, however, lie lias bitten
every cur in the county. Several
of these Infected dogs were carried
to Mr. MoCutliorii’s place by a darky,
and a sharp lookout for rabid dogs

A Mistake.
We stated last week that the mail
was obstructed at Briar creek, on
account of high water in the creek.
We have since learned that it was
not the high water in the creek,
hut the hack water from the creek
which rendered Sandy Run impass
able. We are also informed that
one of the bridges across the creek
at Thompson’s bridge could he done
away with, and the gulch filled witli
earth for $25, and made secure and
permanent, while it would not cost
more than $25 to put a bridge across
Sandy Run. For four months in
the year, Sandy ltun creek is liable
to these periods of hack water to the
very great inconvenience of the
citizens. Acting upon this informa
tion and being satisfied that it
comes from an honorable source,
our commissioners are asked to in
vestigate the matter and to act in
the premises as to justice appertain
ed. Economy is a virtue which
our commissioners liave exercised
with Judgment, hut there may l>e
an abuse of a virtue, and it may he
rendered a wrong. There is a large
district of the county to which this
bridge is not only a convenience,
hut a necessity, and our commis
sioners must look to all parts of the
county. We know, personally,noth
ing of tliis subject, hut have our in
formation from what we deem an
inexorable source, and ask the com
missioners at their next meeting to
Investigate the matter, give this

Death of Little Lena Law.
“Oh! what a shadow o’er the heart is flung
When penis the requiem of tho loved and
young.”
On the 23d of January, her fourth
birth day, died this lovely and
promising child, of pneumonia, after
an illness of five days.
A home, bright with smiles and
vocal with the prattle of infancy, is
changed into “a house of mourning;”
a father’s heart, which yearned
fondly over a darling one, is grief
stricken, and a mother’s love, ap
preaching idolatry, cries out in a
voice of wailing, “Oh! God, who
can mount up to Thy mysteries.”

On waves of tears no heart Is lost.”

realm, but brought near by the resi
dence of one who nestled recently
on your bosom. Listen to Jesus
who speaks in accents of love:
“Suffer little children to come unto
me.” Perhaps He saw rougli ways
before her, where your arms would
fail, so reached from Heaven, and
lifting the dear child,
“Ilo put her down
Beyond all hurt, beyond your sight, and bade
Her wait for you! Shall you not then lie glad
And, thnnlilng God, press on to overtake ”

Cherry Pectoral.
No other complaints are so Insidious In thalf
attack as those affecting the throat and lungst
none so trifled with by the majority cf suffer
ers. The ordinary cough or cold, resulting
perhaps from a trilling or unconscious ex
posure, Is often but the beginning of a lata)
sickness. AYKll’S CllKltltY Pkctohal has
well proven its efficacy In a forty years’ fight
with throat and lung diseases, and should bK
taken In all coses without delay.
A Terrible Cough Cured.
“ In 18671 took a severe cold, which affected
my lungs. 1 had a terrible cough, and passed
uight alter night without sleep. The doctors
gave mo up. 1 tried Avnu’s Ciinhhy Pkc-
toiial, which relieved uiy lungs, luduced
sleep, and afforded me the rest necessary
for the recovery of my strength, lly the
continued use of the Pectoral a perma
nent cure was effected. I am now 62 year*
old, hale and hearty, and am satlsfled yous
CllKltltY Pkctohal saved me.
