TURIN.
At the close of the Civil War cotton
sold at 50c. a pound in gold. Even
now, with less cotton produced, prices
would be much higher, and farmers
could devote a larger acreage to food
and forage crops—the South’s great
est need, and for which we are paying
exhorbitant prices. The grain and
hog-raisers of the West have the cot-
ton-raisers of the South by the throat,
and will continue their grip until we
learn more sense. In view of the high
price of corn, meat and flour, and the
probability of lower prices for cotton
next fall, we are glad to note that the
i farmers of this section are planting
| more corn than usual. Every farmer
should raise his home supplies, and

band. Several sisters are left to mourn
his departure. He died Sunday at St.
Charles, and was buried Monday at
Lutherville. May God sustain the be
reaved family in their hour of gloom
and sadness. Deceased was a mem
ber of the Methodist church at Luther

I
CENTURY
For twenty-six years I have been selling Groceries,
Fresh Fish and Oysters to the people of Newnan and vicinity.
My business has grown from a few hundred dollars a month
to where it amounts now to thousands of dollars a month.
While 1 may be reported by some as being a “back num
ber,” I wish to inform the public that I am “still on deck
when the bell rings, ’ ’ both morning and night, doing business
at the same old stand where I began twenty-two years ago.
My motto is to treat every man as I would have him treat
me. This is the Golden Rule which will bring the success it
deserves. So if you want a “square deal” when buying your
Groceries, call ’phone 54, give Swint the order, and you will
be satisfied with the rest.
