With Boss Buck present there would cer tainly he a lively rmv, and there may be anyhow. Col.

TURNER SPOKE AT DECATUR. Atlanta, Aug. 2S.—(Special.)—<Hon Henry G. Turner spoke alt Decatur to, day to a large arid most enthusiastic crowd. He reviewed the -work of the Democracy and dwelt a* length upon the sliver question. He said the men who would derange the currency of the country was as guilty as the person who would poison the wells of the peo ple. Hlu remarks were (iorolhle argu ments in favor of sound money, and the applause too received showed that the audience whs with him. Mr. Turner's speech was n master stroke and will do much toward piling up the Democratic majority In DeKulb county.

TAMPERED WITH THE JURY LIST Atlanta, Aug. 28.—(Special.)—The prat er little town ot Marietta, twenty miles up the Western and Atlantic road, and Cabb county arc considerably excited over the report that Judge Gober of the Blue Ridge circuit and a resident of Marietta, hjs been monkeying with the jury lists, or rather that the work has ieen done 'by the Jury commissioners, who are his 'political allies. Several weeks ago, ns reported In these dis patches at the time, the grand jury ot Crtbb refused to Indorse Judge Gaber’s candidacy for the supremo bench. Nat urally this was the cause of a good deal ft warm feeling, especially as the coun- . was already split Into factions, Judge Gober being at the head of one side. When the Jury list was revised several days ago the names of those who voted against Indorsing Judge Gober tor the upreme bench were found to bo omlt- ed, although they were among the best citizens anil had always been on the list. The Jury commissioners were all appointed by Judge Gtber and are hts close friends, which has given rise to the repbrt that the omission of the *n- tl-Oober men was done intentionally, on account of their action In tho grand Jury room. A BOLD BURGLAR CAUGHT. Atlanta, Aug. 28.—(Special.)—It lata fact that most merchants find handsome window displays are a good Investment. Keizer & Co., Jewelers ami brokers on Decatur street, are. however, an excep tion to this rule. The Arm, which has a magnificent window, has recently tempted passers-by with a valuable as sortment of jewelry, as well as a lot of crisp new greenbacks distributed artis tically among the Jewels. All night long the window hm been kept brilliant with electric lights. This morning about 2 o'clock Tom Rains, a vagrant negro, happened to pass that way. The sight was too much for him. He went Into an aHcy apd got a bl* rock, and when the policeman on that beat had turned a corner let fly tbe rock. In short or der the negro followed the missile through the brokeD glass, and grabbing both hands full »r bills and Jewelry, made a dooh for liberty. The bold bur glary created a good deal of excitement In police circles. About daylight Rains was captured hiding In an alley. He had his plunder still with him, besides a ptilr of badly cut hands, which will help convict him of the burglary. REWARD FOR WHITBCIAPS. Atlanta, Aug. 28.—(Special.)—Gover- nbr Northen today offered a reward of 8200 for tho capture of Will Morrison and A. P. Duncan, the Murray county whltecoippers who assaulted Will Ro per, an alleged Informer. Roper was taken out of the house where he was stopping, dragged several miles Into the mountains. • ami after being shot sev eral times, was thrown to the bottom of an okl well, where he lay for six days and nights without food br water, suffering the moot horrible ngony and torture. Roper was brought to Atlanta for surgical treatment, having been res cued by n mountaineer whb discovered him by chance, and Is still here. Mor rison and Lawrence have succeeded In keeping clear of the officers, and until they are captured Roper's life would not be safe If he returned to hts home. FOR HER SON'S SAKE. Atlanta, Aug. 28.—(Specdnl.)J>A pa thetic chapter wus added to the kill ing ot Capt. H. O. King by Alex Carr today. This morning a mortgage for 31.000 was filed in the clerk’s office In favor of Arnold & Arnold, Carr’s attor neys. The mortgage was given by Mrs. E. L.

R, Redding, director of tho Georgia experi ment station, near Griffin, on the general apathy of tho people In tho matter improved agricultural methods; will be found very Interesting reading: , THE OPENING LETTER. Augusta, Aug. 18,. 1894.—Col. J. R. Ited ding, Director, Experiment, Ga.-*Deur Sir • • • I am discouraged, If you are not, at the general, If not almost the universal, apathy of our people on' tho subject of Improved agricultural methods. It would be aurlous and humiliating to hear the statistics furnished of tbo small percentage of farmers who pver read anything on the subject of thq.t which Is of vital Importance to them. Yours very respectfully, c. A. Rowland. Gcorfcta ‘Bxperimifct Station, '.Expert ment, Go., Aug. 20, 1894.—C. A. Rowland, Augusts •Go-r-My Dear Sir: • • • I fully endorse what you say In regard to the practical Inutility of legislation so long ns farmers follow such unbusiness like methods, and produce such poor re sults. And while 1 Would be the Inst to underestimate the value and Importance of the work we are doing at this station I am free to say that 1 believe I could do oven mdre good .to the farming Inter est If I cduld spent) my entire tlmo in visiting the farmer* holding meetings, and discussing and. impressing tho Impor tance of common sense, business methods. Farmers do not need science • less, but they need common sense more. "Intensive farming" Is simply business principles applied to the, conduct of the farm, Tho Idea of cultivating on acre of land which can be reasonably expected to yield no more than one-third of u bale of cotton, or ten or twelve bushels of corn, or twelve of fifteen buritelo of.oats is simply prepos terous. I insist that there can bo no real prosperity for an Individual farmer in producing leas than one bale of cotton, twenty-five to thirty bushels of corn, or forty to fifty bushels of oats, per aciy, I insist that there Is a fair profit to be re. allzedon cotton at 6% cents, provided the best land on each farm be selected, a Ju dicious rotation of crops bo adopted, and a. liberal urq of fertilizers (Including cow peas and other renovating roolo) be prac ticed. I have Illustrated on this furm the above propositions. When I took charge of It five years ago, its unaided productiveness was at tho rate of one- third of a bale of cotton, or ten bUBhels of corn per acre. By a system of rotp. tion, including a crop of, small grain and cow pens every third year, nnd liberal but judiolous use of well balanced fertili zers, tho 1 arid—every acre of it In cultiva tion—has been profitably brought up to a capacity of one bale, or twenty to twenty- five bushels of corn, or to thirty or forty bushels of oats per acre. Our crop is now so fin# that It promises—with no oasualty In the future, and a reasonably lats fall— to yield from 1ft to 2 bales per acre. Counting only the expenses which would be properly chargeable to the crop ns a business venture, it certainly will not have cost-when gathered and ready for mar ket-exceeding 6 cents per pound, and I think not more than 4 cents. But If a farmer outs down his area—as he must do In order to get one bale of cotton per acre—If every farmer so reduces his area-then the aggregate cotton crop would be reduced very greatly, probably to one-fourth or one-fifth of the present aggregate area, and the aggregate pro duction would probably be less than 6,0b),- 000 bales, and the market would go up, at a bounce, to 10 cents. Of courso every farmer cannot be so Impressed, and there will be no such universal contraction of areas; but each farmer who docs contract will get the benefit of the widening of the margin between cost of production nnd market price, which would result from his adoption uf the contracted. Intensive, one-baJu-to-the-acre plan. No failure to co-operate on the part of the farmers at large could cheat him of the benefits of his own common sense course. He would find It infinitely wiser to produce twenty bales of cotton at a cost of |20 a bale (4 cents a pound), and sell them for 330 a bale (6 cents a pound), than to product forty bales of cotton at a cost of $30 a bale (6 cents a pound), and sell them tor $30 a bale (6 cents u pound.) In the first cmk he will exchange $29 worth of labor for 880 cash; while in the second cose he will be simply swapping ten dimes for a dol lar, while he owes somebody for a year's living. So then, the argument t» to cart* farmer at an Indlvjdual. Large bodies move slowly—Individuals can act quickly and Independently. I^t any one farmer sec to It that he does what he thinks other farmers should do—whnt all farmers should do-whether others do it or not. If every fanner will do thl* then all will do it—because all Includes every; but if only one in every ten, or one In every thousand, adopts such a course, he will not be without his reward. , it J.
