Why
•o people boy Hood’s Sarsaparilla In
preference to any other, — in fact almost
to the exclusion of all others?
Because
They know from actual oae that Hood’s <
lathe best, i. e., It cures when others fail.
Hood’s Sarsaparill i is still made under
the personal super rision of the educated
pharmacists who originated it.
The question of best is just as positively
decided in favor of Hood’s as the question
Of comparative sales.
Another thing: Every advertisement
of Hood’s Sarsaparilla is true, is honest.

Looking over the cotton li'ibls today,
cie scarcely recognizes them as tho
s.mie which wore a mouth ago ladca
AVIIh the promise of aa abundant crop—
at that ii mo the plants wore in luxuri
ant growth, although tho crop at a
rule, g.-.t nla’e stiU’t in tho spring, tho
following seasons wore very propitious,
aud thin the farmers ha i ample opp >r
tunity to aco-ompllih the first workiu :s
promptly, therefore when the needed
rains in June begun everything was fa
vorable, anil from tout tiino tho crop
c uitinn-’d to improve so steadily that
the pii.-po. r fur a h'Mvy yl. 1.1 Was never
i:i if- pronuiitig. On-ali Bides the crop
was greeted by t!ie glossy, dark green
is' the rapidly mufti, in r plants. The
bot tom crop was mantling and the mid
dle an-.t top crops lusr funning, when
the drouth of .liny au<i Ang-a.k'began.
Iks been s;> (i.iree a lid - r o long con
tinued that in many instances, partic
ularly it: tho lam pan tod cotton Holds,
the ground is covered with the forms
and vouug bolls of the middle and top
crops, and a laty.e percent of the more
mature bottom crop, .which still clings
to me st tli.’s. has beeu-pveuiatuvel"
f. reed open by the intense heat and dry
ness. The v.' crdta are an interim' stapio
and ". sttuned sample. Under these
conditions, which are not confined to
our own state, but aro even iutonsiil il
h; Texas, ii issiusippi, Alabama, Liu
istat’a au:l Arkuusas, the ceitainty of a
••hurt- crop and consequent high prices
seem a foregone cotioludon—and many
farmers are considering
THE ADVISABILITY OF IIOI.DIXG COTTOV
for better pficas than are now quoted.
I’o give positive advice on this question
u a:;, risky as predicting the weather,
cr standing security for the amiability
of a Georgia mule. Each individual
tanner must be guided by his own judg
ment and by circumstances, which ren
der bis selling at an early day import
ant or immaterial to his own business
, interests. Jgho visible supply of . ottou
AS very short,'" ana the crop is certu'itliy
cut off at least a third, if not more, but
on the other hand spinners nro over
crowded with goods, many of the mills
have shut down or are working on
snorter time, added to which the finan
cial crisis renders all predictions as to
the probable outcome extremely uncer
tain. Speculatijo also controls the
market to a great extent.
EARLY AND LATE PLANTED COTTCY.
What- is of equal impoitance to us and
a lesson which we can take-to heart and
study with profit is tho superiority of
the crop on file early planted and well
prepaid! cotton fields over that, which
was carelessly prepared for and planted
late. Even the inexperienced eye can
detect tho difference at sight. Ou my
own farm I ius.stod flint a portion of
the cotton crop should be planted early
—and though some of tiio tenants did
the work under protest, they are today
rejoicing, that in those fields at least, a
part of the fi xf>remains. Where the cot
ton was planted early, land well and
deeply preparocj and the manuring ju
diciously done, the per cent of grown
bo Is is very encouraging. Tho lesson
to be learned is that having attended to
the preliminaries of thorotmh prepara
tion, it is fa for to make one, two, nr eveu
three plantings with intervals between
than to nnst our entire crop to one
planting—-siud also that careless meth
cas uo not pay. We not only take
greater chances ou some portion hitting
tho reasons, properly, but by planting
at intervals, the ease of lunidli :g the
< rop is greatly increased because the
cultivations ol o;i h planting will fol
low each either in such order as t > avoid
tho iijipri iitabio rush, which is inevita
ble when all are pro. si a g for at tout ion
at the same time. Tlie same may be
said ot the gathering.
IXOCEAMIXO THE YIELD OF LIYT
to each -p emu of soed cotton, is an
other subject for profitable study and
progress. Ey systematic work on this
imo the sugar boot, lias been made to
yield double the proportion of sugar that
it once did. Wheat,’corn, oats, briricy,
till have, by the same careful methods
of saving ami-electing seed, judiciously
applying fcitiiims and thorough prep
aration and cu.tivution, been made to
increase the nr portion of grain as com
pared to stalk, chaff, etc. Cotton is
cquady ;-ub -eptiblo to improvement. A
few farmers have realized the import
ance and tim profit of this walk, and
from much of the imp. oved feed which
tlmy have placed on the market, we
gam a mure wed balanced plant and a
larger yield of lint, but the majority of
farmer , even tin so wlm have invested
in these high p ic il seed, too often
suffer them to lapse into mediocrity—
through carelessness after selection.
The seed f, r ti JO succeeding crop is
taken indi crimiuatcly from the seed
pile—or if. certain pickings are selected,
there is no distinction made as to the
mature and immature boils, all art
thrown into one common pile, and md
orally when planting time comes tim
inferiqr see i stand an equal chance
with the g; od. The hoc hand can inurk

“At a ooavention hold in Augusta
in April Inst, at whi h Oharle.ston, Sa*
vammh ami other cities were ropre
sentod, the following resolutions were
adopted as re -oniiaandatioas to the giu
iiois a- u pu- kovs of cot-tan: ~>o.^
"That too bales should bo well cov--

“That the bale sound bo made In,

“A unironu halo of 2SxSB inches can
be easily attained at a very small ex
panse liy nailing strips of wood iu boxes,
that aro now larger.
“Bales of ah one size will certainly
facilitate business and be a benefit tot
every ofie ia trad*; bat : 1 I iM() wM}
to the freight steamors, and such Cot
ton will undoubtedly command a less
rate of freight, which really goes to tho
seller. You are therefore requested to
comply with the foregoing recommen
dations and thus assist in improving the
condition of the American cotton -bales.”
The penalty referred to was imposed
by the Liverpool Cotton association and
wa-; a (induction of 5 pounds from the
weight of each halo found to bo covered
with inferior bagging and ties, or in
otherwise bad oomiiti n. This associa
tion also recommends tho size mentioned
above, dd inches wide by 58 inches long.
This uniformity in siz-o will facilitate
bitiid lug and transportation, vessols
will be enabled to store more cotton in
the sumo space, which will lower freights
and result in higher prices in eur h nut
markets. A reform in this matter would
thus result iu. direct benefit to us', he
producers. Very few farmers realize
that th re i.: at present a deduction made

American cotton reaches the Liverpool

rains ceased, ami than followed several
weeks of the hot test weather ever cx

tho heat, came drouth, causing the
plants to shod leaves, forms and even
