J lie year 1SS4 is passed, and a new one is aj^ain upon us.
It behooves everybody who till’s the soil to be on the lookout and
make his preparations for a new crop, and also consult his 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 Anrmoniated Dissolved Bone has been used by
a great many of our best planters and citizens of this county for
several years with great satisfaction. I claim to sell this year,
l«8o, a still better article than ever. The Guano is made up en
tirely of animal matter and such other ingredients as are mos
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. I 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
arc 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 oifice of II.

Dear Sir: There seems to have been a report started in this part of I justices ofVhe peaeVand is making
the county that the l 1 RANKLIN GUANO is not up to the standard, and 1 1
not as represented by you. As you have sold a great deal of the Guano,
rand 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 who are using the Franklin Guano. Very respectfully,
(Signed.) R. T. JONES,.

Dear Sir: Since writing to you last April about the FRANKLIN
GUANO, I will now state that I distributed the Franklin 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 one 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/ This proved to me that the Franklin is as good as any. I
surely shall use the Franklin again next year. Very respectfully,

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.

Conununlcaioil,
Augusts to Ssndersvllle,
Col. Mitchell, the president of the
A. G. A S. R. R., has displayed un
usual energy, foresight and sagacity
in this enterprise. The cars are
now running to Richmond Factory;
they will reach llephzibah at least
by the 1st of May and Sandersville
by let September. All the arrange
ments are made and the success of
the road is assured. During the
fearful panic of 1884 when factories,
workshops, foundries, Ac., all stop
ped; Mitchell said “we must fight
tlie panic,” and kept moving for
ward until lie lias whipped tlie
panic, and the road will certainly
be built. Ilurrrah, for Mitchell!
Broader fields and richer pastures
yet await him.
This road will pass almost central
ly between the Georgia and Central
railroads, developing a large sec
tion of country which needs only a
railroad to make it desirable. New
towns are springing up all along tlie
line. Gracewood, eight miles west
of Augusta, is rapidly booming, and
is destined to be a Southern Chatau-
qua. llephzibah is a nice village
fourteen miles west of Augusta.
This place is now being surveyed
and lots are being laid off with a
view of offering them for sale as
\oon as the cars arrive. They have
here an excellent climate, equal to
Aiken, S. C., good society, pure
water and a fine school already
established. It is the highest point
between tlie Ogeechee and Savan
nah rivers, and will prove an excel
lent-summer, as well as winter re-
rt. A first class hotel is needed,
and will doubtless soon be built.
Tlie people of Burke county can
find no healthier or better place to
spend their summers. Indue time
sale of lots will he advertised and
all are invited to come up and buy
lots. Veritas.

Spring has come at last after a
dull and cold winter.
Our farmors are very busy malt
ing rapid preparations and planting
crops. Hope they may realize a
good profit for their trouble and
expense.
I learn that Mr. L. R. Wadley lias
finished planting his entire corn
crop. He is one of our most ener
getic and progressive farmers and
deserves to succeed.
I enjoyed the rare sight of the
famous rabbit proof garden of Mr.
W. B. Everitt one day this week,
which is rapidly nearing comple
tion. I hope he will let us know
from time to timo through The
Citizen how it succeeds,
I am glad to wolcome in our
midst our friend Dr. J. C. Mathews,
who has located at Birdsville for
the purpose of practicing his pro
fession. Dr. Mathews is a clever
gentleman, and I hope the good
citizens of our community will aid
him in building up a lucrative prac
tice, as a good physician has been
much needed in this vicinity, it be

summer season. R.
