Waynesboro, Georgia, Saturday, April 14,\1900. dumber INDUSTRIAL DAY T >ok up some little time in the dis cussion. The association will make this one of the leading features of the week. Mr. Keener said that the amusement committee had tak en the matter in hand and was pushing it for all it is worth. He says Mr. Mulkey, of the Federations of Trades Is lending his assistance and the hewing .hat the different unions make vviii surpass any hing of h k ud in the past. He said he had seen several of the merchants of the city who had Contributed prizes for the occasion, and these prizes would be given for th union making the best appearance, the best trades display, etc. In the mat ter of the floats and displays, Mr. Keener said he had heard a num ber of merchants 3ay that they would put out floats, and from the discretions they gave him he could well say they would all be fine an J the decision as to the best would be cose, The prizes for Industrial Day will be exhibited in the show win dow of Capt. Renk’i jewelry store. As to the rates on the railroads it wn' stated that the committee had so fur been able to get only one fair, but if they could do anything bet ter in the next few days they would. The outline of the amusements for the week has been made up about as follows, though there may be changes: Monday 7 —Grand opening. Tuesday—Industrial Day. Wednesday—Floral porade. This teature is being well looked out for and the committee having it in charge,when approached,mere ly smile and say wait an we will have one of the greatest surprises Augusta has even seen. The queen for the occasion will be some young lay of social prominence, and the maids of honor likewise, though none of the names have been given out at ail yet. Thursday—Military Day 7 . When this subject came up for discussion it was decided to get the rate of one cent a mile for the mil itary and inyite the companies from the nearby places, as spoken of in the Chronicle recently. They will be treated to a dinner on Military day at the expense of the military- committee. The dinner will not be cheeply gotten up affair, merely for the sake of haviDg the name. A contract will be made with some reliable restaurant man of the city to furnish a first-class spread for 300 men. Besides these the coionel and his staff have been invited to be present on that day and participate and have accepted. Friday—Grand display 7 of fire works. Friday—Grand display of electri cal daylight fireworks. Saturday -Grand finale. Each night there will be concerts and performances on the stage be tween Jackson and Campbell streets auu on two nights—which two will be announced later—Pain’s greai attractions will be on at the river front. The amusement committee has also secured the services of a company of local talent cake waik ers—32 in number. Mr. Keener i- very much pleased with them and says they are sure to take. They are having rehearsals for the occa sion nightly 7 now. It was decided to ask the four mil itary companies of the city to as sist the association in keeping order around the stands during the per formance at night; one company to serve each night. The oglethorps took time by the forelock and at their meeting last night unanimous ly tendered their services to the as sociation for anyone night during the week. The association made plain the fact that the military was a great help to them last year. THE Pays Interest PLANTERS oi Deuosits. LOAN AND SAVINGS Accounts BANK, Solicited. Augusta. Ga. L.C.

Atlanta, April 2, 1900. ihe cotton acreage for Georgia, will be virtually determined during this month and the present price of this staple makes the temptation very strong to plant too much cotton to the neglect of other crops. We warn the farmers to pause and consider carefully whether the p ans formed and which they are now about to execute, provide fuliy for ail ihe supplies needed on the farm for both man and beast. Wnen this pro vision is made, let the farmer piano as much cotton a, he can nroperly culti vate and gather and he is bound to prosper, the degree of prosperity de pending only upon ihe price of the sta ple. Let us get hick to the good old days when the farm was a little world within itself, malting almost everything needed by the family. Our older read ers can remember the farmers were the lords of the land and the money lend ers of the country. Of recent years the scene has shifted and now the merchant reigns supreme in the towns, while the farmer borrows and the laud mourns weighed down with mortgage. The “all cotton plan” may not be responsi ble for the depressed condition of the cotton growing states, but much is chargeable to this cause. Tine trouble is not so much that we have too much cotton but too few supplies. Our farmers got into the habit of pro ducing all cotton to the detriment of food crops immediately after the “war between the states,” when there was an exorbitant demand for the fleecy staple on account of said war, and conse quently prices reached a “boom” value. Food crops, such as wheat, corn, oats, etc., were comparatively low. As soon as the demand was lessened the prices began to drop. It was difficult to go back to the old plans ana the habit be came fixed, until we have been forced by low prices and aimost bankruptcy to consider our condition, and form res olutions of retrenchment. Let us nor lose what we have gained, but let 1900 be a memorable year because of tho great supply of “hog and hominy.” For the past two years we have made much progress along these lines. More wheat and grain and grasses generally were sawn than for years past. More cat tle and better cattle are being kept and raised by the farmer. Lst the good work goon. Cotton mills are springing up like magic all over Georgia. The lumber and turpentine industries are. as well as the iron and gold ore, all do ing well. There is and will be a great demand for grains and grasses, cattle, hogs, poultry, butter and eggs. This will bring into circulation more money to buy more cotton gocris than for years, heco9 we believe that cotton will be a good price next fall. Concerning the planting of cotton we advise that just as soon as ths ground has been prepared and all danger of frost is over, plant your cotton seed. The early plants, as a gederal thing, produce the best fruit. Don’t wait until the ground becomes too dry to produce germination of the seed. Run a harrow over the beds, when they are not fresh, so as to freshen the surface. Ton caa do this with but little loss of time if you will arrrnge a small plow immediately be hind the teeth of the harrow so as to open a furrow for the planter, or use the Dlanter with an opener. The har row will not only freshen the bed. but remove clods and other obstacles and kill the germinating grass. When the cotton is ready to come up rnn your harrow over the bed again and this will aid you in getting a good stand and besides kill another crop of gras3. We prefer the planter that cov ers the seed with the double-foot bull tongue to the board, used with some of the cotton planters. We have gener ally used, say 50 to f /5 pounds of ferti lizer in the drill with the seed. This gives an early start to the plant. O. B. Stevens, Commissioner. Corn Smut. Question.—Will you please inform me through The Cultivator whether or not there is a remedy for smut or plast in corn, and if so, what is it? Answer.—-This smut of corn is wide spread, and may be found wherever corn is cultivated, but fortunately it rarely causes any loss. It is a fungus disease which causes large deformations on the stems, leaves, ieag-shatters and the male and female flowers. These whitish gail-like swellings contain masses of gelatinous mycelium, which produce millions of dark brown infect ing spores. When mature the spores rupture the enclosing sack and float away on the air. These spores may produce infection ou any immature part of the host plant. The most dam age is usually done to the ear, which is frequently converted into a mass of my celium and spores. No satisfactory remedy is yet known, and preventive measures have not proven altogether successful. It may be partially con trolled by the early removal of all smut galls. These should be cut away and burned as soon as they appear. It has been suggested that the copper sulphate treatment for wheat smut would also apply to corn smut, but this is some what doubtful, since the infection does not necessarily come from the spores that adhere to the seed corn. This treatment consists in immersing the seed for about 12 hours iu a solution made by dissolving 1 pound of crushed copper sulphate in 24 gallons of water. The seed is then removed from the cop per sulphate solution and immersed for about 10 minutes in lime water (1 pound of fresh lime slacked in 8 gallons of water). This is an excellent preven tion for stink smut of wheat, and might be of some value against corn smut. —State Agricultural Department. can be used as a forage for cattle or horses, or they caa be left on the land to be turned under in the fall, which is said to be a very fine renovator of poor exhausted lands, even better than the pea vine. Prof. A. A. Persons, Director of the Florida Experimental Station, gives the following comparative analysis of the velvet bean and cow pea: VELVET BEAN. COW PEA. Ash 2.29 10.50 Protein 21.36 14.30 Fat 7.14 2.60 Fiber 8.46 29.00 Xitrogen 60.75 43.60 This comparatively new plant may prove to be cf great value as a forage crop, live stock feed upon it with great relish where it has been grown. How ever, any forage staff which runs so high in nitrogen as the velvet bean, should be fed with some coarse food, such as corn, fodder or corn stalk shreds. If Mr. Newheart’s plan of planting this bean in orchards for shade, mulch and fertilization, is a success in Florida, why would not this bean be a success planted between the rows of trees in the fruit orchards in Middle and South Georgia? The velvet beans can be bought from Mr. A. P. Stewart, Oconee, Fla., at $1.50 per bushel, f. o. b.

These are, therefore, to cite and admor ish all persons interested, to show cause, (if any can, - before me, at my office, at 10 o’clock, a in., on the first Monday in July, 1900, why said letters dismissory should not be granted in terms of the law. This March 3th, 1900, GEO. F.COX, Ordinary. B. C, Ga. A EORGIA—Burke County.- Whereas n OT S. .-.Watson Perkins, administrator ol Stock Raising. Question.—Have read your article on keeping .more stock on onr farms. How can I best improve the breed with least cost? Wanted—Everybody and his wife to go to his druggist and get a bot tle of Dr. Tichnor’s Antiseptic, the most wonderful healing compound of the nineteenth century. It pre serves the flesh, prevents inflamma tion or suppuration and heals like magic. Pleasant as perfume ainj stainless as rose water. Answer —Unquestionably the mo3t profitable course for the general farmer to pursue in improving the quality of his live stock, is first to buy first-class thoroughbred males. The calves got jy a thoroughbred bull of any cf the best breeds, out of a mixed average lot of cows, will possess much of the thor- oaghbred sire3, ana the females of these grades again bred to a thoroughbred will give animals equal to the average thoroughbred for all'practical purposes except that of procreation. The same is true of swine, sheep, poultry and all kinds of farm stock. Get, then, the purest lineage males and carefully select the best of the female produce for breeders and in a few years you have ingrafted ail the excellencies of the thoroughbred stock upon your flocks and herds. If yon are not able to invest in a thor oughbred alone, then get one or a half dozen of your neighbors and together buy the male. Georgia is far behind some of our sister states in the quality of the live stock. Especially is this true as to “be9f cattle.” The Short Horn is one of the best breeds for gen eral farmers. This breed will give you a steer at three years old that will weigh from 1500 to 1800 pounds, and a cow that will give two to four gallons of milk under proper treatment. The very best breeds will not show any marked superiority over our native stock, if left alone to shift for itself in the lauds of the average farmer, but the improved breeds do furnish the means by which more pounds of beef or butter, mutton or pork, and of a bat ter qnaiity, than can be produced by a given quantity of food, than from unim proved stock.—State Agricultural De partment.

One Minute Cough Cure, cures. That U what it was made for. Information In Regard to a Valuable Forage Plant. Question.—Please give me some in formation about the velvet bean. Answer.—We have had no personal experience with what is known as tne velvet bean, and what we shall write will necessarily be taken from others who have had such experience. Mr. A. P. Newheart of Oconee, Fla., writes that the pea or velvet bean has been planted there for twenty years as coverings for trellises and unsightly places. The abundance of vine and foliage so completely covering the ground after the frost, suggested the idea of planting the bean in his orchard grove as a manure instead of buying commercial-gnano3. The result was so satisfactory that he was induced to ex tend his experiment to other groves. He was delighted with the showing. His groves showed up well with those on which he used fertilizers. The bean should be planted in April or May, in middle Georgia, or about the same time you plant field peas. Plant as yon plant the field peas; say from three to five beans m a place, from 12 to 14 inches apart in three feet rows. When the bean begins to run, use the plow or cultivator; one or two plowings will be sufficient. The average yield per acre is from 15 to 25 bushels of the beans. The vines, which are abundant, Regulators Use Dynamite. Logansport, IhcL, April 4.—One hun dred and fifty masked men blew up a residence and burned two houses on the Logansport and Burlington pike at mid night.

The road is the only toll pike in the country and those com pelled to use it have been hostile for a year. A reward has been offered for the apprehension of the parties who burned the first bridge.
