The following stat meet is one cut of hundreds from the energy and is of genuine interest. The Rev. Royal 0 Vail, of Browningtou Centre, Vt., said to a reoorter: “Some fourteen or nfteen years ago, when pastor of a church in Windsor county. I broke down en tirely. I did more work than I ought to and my nerves eave way. Fur nearly eight years I suffered from my shattered nerves. They made my limbs tremble constantly and also caused weakness, imper fect action of the kidneys and con stipation. “How was I cured? From the start I had consulted with different physicians and taken iheir medi cines but I got little help until, in 1S97 or 1898, when my aged father suggested that I try jDr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People, I felt stronger in a few days after I began taking them and continued until I was cured. “Yes, gladly,” he answered the reporters question. “They have done so much for me that for the good of others I give you m.v per mission to publish my testimony” If is an important and significant fact that no other medicine is so often recommended by clergymen a-* Br. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People. They praise them because the excellence of the remedy has been proven in their own experi ence. It is a well established fact that they are an unfailing specific for partial paralysis, locomotor ataxia, St. Vitus’ dance, neuralgia, nervous headache and also for all diseases arising from impure or im poverished blood, such as rheuma fism, acatmia, after effects of the grip, palpitation of the heart, na'e and sallow complexions and all forms of weakness either in male or female.

Origin of “n Horn.” A western man at a fashionable bar in New Y’ork called for a horn and then had to tell the drink mixer that it was whisky he wanted before he got. his order filled. “Curious,” commented the western er, “how people in the cast can’t under stand plain English. Anybody down in Kentucky knows what ‘a born’ is and how it got its name.” “How did it get its name?” inquired a bystander. “Well, along about 100 years ago the first distillery ever established in Ten nessee was set up in Davidson county. It was called the Red Heifer, and the customers who assembled at the still, especially on Saturday afternoon, to drink and gamble, got in the habit of speaking of a dram as ‘a horn of the heifer.’ As Tennessee was the first state to be settled west of the Alle- gbanies the phrase spread all over the west and southwest, finally being con tracted into tbe single word ‘horn.’ ”— New York Times.

Send us the news of your section- Agricultural Department, Atlanta, Sept. 10, 1901. In vLw of the crop condition of th< west and the northwest it behooves th< farmers of Georgia and the south gen erally to allow no waste upon the farm. - Many of our people depend in greaf measure upon western hay. But so un favorable has been the condition in th; west throughout the entire season ol 1901 that their dependence will prove a broken reed. In other seasons hay whicJ cost $5 or $6 dollars a ton in the wes - , ern market, sold in Georgia, by reason of transportation, at- from $13.00 ti $15.00 a ton. The present season has been so unfavorable, that western hai brings on the farm where it is grows and mowed $16.00 a ton. Now tin- fanner, judging by the past, can mak; his own calculation as to what western hay will cost him by the time it reache: the Georgia market, In view of this in must see the necessity of supplying tin needs of his stock from his own farm. Every mower should be put to work an once, or, if the farm is not equipped with such an implement, bring the hand scythe into active play. Every available blade of grass should be cut. Gachei in the crab grass, crow-foot and wire grass. Cut all the Bermuda on you: place, and fail not in utilizing ail you: pea vines. Mow also the swamp grasses and all the broom sedge, that is not tod far matured to be used for hay. Though the two last named do not make the best hay, they are better than no hay, ot than paying excessive rates for the western article. If a shredder is to bd had, have your cornstalks shredded and stored away. Make good use of youi cane. Let nothing escape your notice that cau be used for food for your stock. This is a time which puts to the se verest test a farmer’s scientific knowl edge and ability to make his farm a success. This is no time for a man because oi the difficulties that beset him to fold his hands and, saying, “all is lost!" give up the fight. Though in many sections cotton has been seriously dam aged and the corn crop is below the average, minor crops, such as peas and potatoes, are doing well. Some report the fields overrun with grass. Cut all that grass and turn it into hay. Use all means to avoid the loss of any part of aDy product that can be stored away for the use of man oi beast. The cry of disastrous drouth over a large section of the Union is, alas I too true. A short grain and grass crop in the west means high grain and meat to the southern farmer who does not raise his own supplies. Will Georgia farm ers, under these conditions, allow their barns to remain empty, while the fields are covered with valuable native grasses which can now be saved and housed at a nominal cost? Or will they wait un til next spring and pay twenty to twen ty-five dollars per ton for western hay ? GET READY FOR YOUR WINTER CROPS. As soon as the grasses and peavines have been cut and stored away for hay begin to get your fields ready for oats, bariey, rye, wheat, clover and the pe rennial grasses. In the upper half of the cotton belt September is the proper month for seed ing all these except wheat, the sowing of which can be deferred uv.til after the first frost. Early seeding gua-ds against the greatest dangers to these crops, viz: winter killing and spring drouths. The former of these perils is avoided by sow ing in time for the plants to become deep-rooted and strong before the win ter freezing. The spring drouths do not prove disastrous to early-seeded crops, since they have time to mature and are ready for the harvest before the drouth sets in and before the moisture, that had accumulated during th» winter, has been exhausted. An early oat crop rarely fails except from winter killing. This crop should be put upon good land liberally fertil ized. We do not deem it necessary to plow in oats very deeply, provided they follow a crop that has been well culti vated during the year. Two inches would be sufficiently deep, and they should be plowed in with a cultivator or short turning plow It is best to seed heavily, thus allowing for the loss of some grain by freezes. We regard barley a most admirable crop for early spring grazing, valuable both in contributing to the health of stock and in the saving of corn and fodder. An acre of barley well fertil ized will feed two mules for five or six weeks. On thinner land you can seed rye, which will always grow and make a good-paying green food crop. While not the best feed, it is reliable, always coming in when most- needed., Colonel James M. Smith of Oglethorpe county said that he wonld hardly know how to farm without raising: barley and rye for spring feeding. The various vetches and clover, red, crimson or burr, are useful and should be seeded down this month. We wonld not advise every farmer tc plant all of these for winter crops. This is a matter of choice to be determined by surrounding conditions; but no farm er can afford to be without them. THE PROFITS OF RICE CULTURE. Although there is so much land iD Georgia suited to the profitable cultiva tion of rice, there has been a great fall ing off in its production in tnis state during the last few years. And yel Adverting W*»I. v_la no more profitable crop than rice for some sections of our state, es peciailv along the seaboard. We are indebted to Oswald Wilson, in the Sep tember number of the Southern Farm Magzaine, for some valuable informa tion concerning this important cereal The average value per acre of rice is $39 00, less- the cost of irrigation, which amounts to about 00. Accord ing to the report: of the United State! census the average value per acre oi corn in 1900 was §9.02; of wheat, $7.61 of oats, $7.63. The three great staple crons of th . world, corn wheat and oats, have an ag gregate production of more toau S,500, 000,000 bushels and a market value o! nearly $,’,940,670,000. The product-lot of rice is 74.074.369,193 pounds valued at $2,962,974,781. It is the principa diet of 800,000,000 people, or more that 54 per cent of the entire population o) the world. Although rice has been grown in th« United States from the earliest period of our history, it is only of late year: that it has reached much development. In Louisiana and Texas rice culture ha- become a great industry with a capita: of $5,000,000 invested in 100 canals. 1,500 miles in extent and capable, undel present water conditions, of flooding 200,000 acres. The consumption of rice in the United States is increasing steadily, and ther<: is growing demand for it. Hence thert is very little danger of over production. Wherever the conditions are favorable will it not be profitable to pay more at tentiou to the cultivation of this great cereal? Abundance of wholesome food for oui people should be oao great aim cf the agriculturists of our state, and rice i- alreaav one of the principal articles o! diet in almost every Georgia homo. THE MEANS OF INDEPENDENCE. We have at our command the means of independence in our soil, adapted to the cultivation of every product of the temperate zone and to some of those of the tropics. There is no need for us to go west for our corn and wheat, oui hay and meat. We cau produce them ail at home, and with our great money crop, cotton, as a surplus, be not only self-sustaining, but, in common with the farmers of other southern states, become the wealthiest agriculturists oi the world.

PETITION POE CHARTER. Big Floral Parade at Atlanta. Bpecial efforts are being made this year to make the opening day of the Inter-State Fair in Atlanta one of the most attractive of the entire fair from October 9ih to 26th. In order to add to the attractiveness of this day an im mense floral parade, followed by & flowerbattie, will be held. This matter was decided upon at a meeting of the directors the other day and special prizes will be offered to make the pa rade a big success. This big parade will be patterned after tbe annual parade and flower bat tle in New Orleans, and hundreds of decorated carriages will be in line. Such parades are wondrously rich in color effects, the flower battle being one of the prettiest amusements ever con trived. The Earthquake. To tbe average resident of tbe tem perate zones an earthquake is a rare and terrible event, creating more con sternation than any other visitation of nature. In tbe tropics, however, par ticularly in Central America, it is won derful iiow easily the residents be come accustomed to these shocks, which do not come, however, wholly without warning. You are sitting on a piazza on a hot afternoon c-hatting with your friends when suddenly the sky seems to grow hazy and the crows stop cawing. There is a general rush, and. though yon may not know what is the matter, you can not help feeling uneasy. The old natives say, “We’re going to have a little shake,” and then the house begins to rock, the tumblers fail off the table, you feel deathly sick at the stomach, and the thing is all over. The sky clears, the crows begin their noisy screams, and things are soon put right again.

Dodo is tbe Portuguese name for simpleton, and it is given to tbe silliest bird that ever lived. Three hundred years ago, when tbe Portuguese firsl visited tbe island of Mauritius, they found a large number of these birds. They were about tbe size of a large swan, blackish gray in color and hav ing only a ‘bunch of feathers in place of a tail and little, useless wings. More stupid and foolish birds could not be imagined. They ran abcut mak ing a silly, hissing noise like a goose, end tlie sailors easily knocked them over with their paddles. They couldn’t fly, they couldn’t swim, they couldn’t run at any great speed, and, as for fighting, they were the greatest cow ards in the world. They were much too stupid to build a nest, and so they dropped an egg and went off to let it hatch as best it conld.
