Association, which meets atCum

the Georgia Teachers are very
beneficial ami interesting, and for
for a few days *of rest and reerea
sion, no better p,ace can be found
than Cumberland Island. The
railroads will give half rates, and
if anyone desires to go they should
confer with R J Guinn, president
of the Association before starting.
If the Democrat* of the 10th
district, want to send a genuine,
dyed-in-the-wool, intelligent, well
posted, silver demoorat, to con
gress to succeed Major Black, we
would suggest that they insist on
editor Sidney Lewis, of the Sparta
Ishmaelite, accepting the nomine- 1
tion. Asa silver advocate he
outshines Watson, the populist at-'
tornev, nnd as nu old time south
era democrat, without a hobby,
he stands away up head. If we 1
were in the 10th we would favor 1
editor Lewis, for with him and his
rword the democrats could easily
win.

The cold wave that passed over
the country this week, did much
damage in the western Btates. In
some of the western states the
reports given out is that about, all
the fruit and grapes are gone, and
some of the trees are dead, and
they have grave apprehensions of
the wheat. Snow is reported in
Michigan 12 inches deep on a lev
el with light snows in several
states. The frost here was not
heavy enough to injure vegetation
much, and the weather man in
forms us that the weather will be
warm from now on. Let’s hope that
he is oorrect.
Gov. John Gary Evans of South
Carolina, has issued a fiery ad
dress to the peopls of his state.
Th# address deals, in the main,
with the recent decision of Judge
Golf, in which the registration laws
of South Carolina are done away
with. In the course of the ad
dress, he deneunoes Judge Goff and
his associate Judge Bimonsto i, in
ths most bitter terms, and calls
on the people of South Carolina to
rally around the white flag. He
says further “that the world must
le shown that we are capable of
governing ourselves, and that con
stitution or no constitution, law or
no law, court or no court, the in
telligent white people of South
Carolina intend to govern her.”
The issue seems to be coming be-'
tween state sovereignty and the
U. S. courts and its hard to tell
where it. will end.
Hon. A S Olay, chairman of the
the State Democratic Executive
committee ia out in an interview
in which there can_t>e no mistake
aa to hia position on the money
question. He told the people last
year during the campaigu his posi
tion. aud now reiterates what he
then said in stronger terms, if pos
sible, that he is for free coinage
of silver at the present ratio. The
democratic party of Georgia ia be
hind its brainy young chairman,
aud the gold bugs must take a

need for spending it. It is the farmer
in debt on whom tho hard times press
so heavily, because the prices of hi*
commodities have gone on declining,
while the interest, taxes, etc., remain
at the sumo figure as when his corn,
oats, cotton and wheat were worth and
would pay debts of three times their
present vs'ue.
* FOIUhULA FT) It GROUNDPEAS.
Question 5. —Pioase give me a good
fertilizer for grottndpeas. I wish tc
make tte be-t crop ot which the land
is capable. What proporiou of oil do
the gronndpeas contain, and are there
any accessible mills?
Answer s. —Acid phosphate, 1,000
pounds.
Muriate potash, 300 pounds.
Nitrate soda, 800 pounds.
Sulphate of lime, 500 pounds.
Thero is 38 per cent of oil in ground
peas. As far as we can ascertain there
are only two mills iu this country, one
in St. t-ouis and the other in New
York. Owing to the fact that other
oils are now oheaper, this industry has
been almost abandoned. During the
war. when we were cut off from other
supplies, there were a good many of
these mills in the south. Its uses are
the same as cottonseed oil, and the
cake is also used lor stock feed. The
Spanish groutnlpeas can bo planted
after the small grain crops are taken
off, and will mature fully before frost.
