A Record of Twenty Years!
COWETA FERTILIZER CO.
STRONGEST IN PLANT NUTRITION—HIGHEST IN COMMERCIAL VALUE.
The farmers of Coweta and adjoining counties are so well acquainted with the old, reliable brands of guano put on the
market by the COWETA FERTILIZER CO. that no introduction or commendation is needed at our hands. They are
of such grade and purity as will meet all the requirements of your soil, and the prices are as low as first-class fertilizers can
be sold by any reputable manufacturer or dealer in Georgia. We claim with .confidence that the various brands, both of am-
moniated goods and acid phosphate, have been more satisfactory in results than can >be shown for any other line of guanos
sold in the cotton belt. We are supported in this claim by the testimonials of hundreds of farmers who have used our fer
tilizers year after year, and with increasing satisfaction each season. Therefore, we have no hesitancy in offering them upon
their merits in competition with any grade or brand of fertilizer manufactured in the United States. Repeated tests, under
all conditions, covering a period of nearly a quarter of a century, have demonstrated their superiority as a soil stimulant and
their unquestioned efficacy as a plant food. In fact, <ve furnish the BEST GOODS for the LEAST MONEY, and chal
lenge comparison with any brands sold in Georgia, both as regards fertilizing efficacy and in commercial value.
The following brands are established favorites with the planters of this section, and we offer them to the trade in the be
lief that they are unsurpassed by any goods sold in this market, viz:

ONE DOLLAR A YEAR.
The Census of 1910.
Son. Martin V. Calvin, Director State Experiment
Station.
Whether he recognizes the fact or
'elects to overlook it, every good citizen
is more or less directly interested in the
census about to be taken. If such citi
zen should take a broad view of the
subject, he would instantly become con
vinced of his duty in the premises; for
it is the citizens in the aggregate whose
statement and reports contribute to
make reliable, or of doubtful accuracy,
•any census that is written.
A census, in the fuller sense of the
word, is a history of the progress of a
people. This is particularly true of any
"United States census; for the Govern
ment spares neither money nor time in
collecting the facts which are deter
mining factors in the lives of all the
people, whether they live in the country
sparse or in the cities full, whether they
fce farmers or lawyers, merchants or
bankers, mechanics or manufacturers.
Preparation for the great census of
1910 has been in progress for months
and months. The schedules, while
broadened and enlarged in point of
class, have been greatly simplified, so
that, the questions to which full and
complete answers will be, sought, will
be within- the comprehension of the
illiterate citizen.
Georgia and the South have much at
stake in the coming census. It is a
golden opportunity for the Southern
agriculturist and the Southern manu
facturer, the Southern banker and
Southern railway man. We group
these four industries because they are
distinctly representative. They are,
indeed, in a sense wholly unobjection
able, the big four of this section of the
country.
It is all important that a full and an
accurate report of each of these indus
tries shall be given, in the census of
1910, the place it will deserve.
We stress the duty of the Southern
States—the cotton-producing States in
particular—for the reason that the oth
er sections*of the country are, because
of experience, more alive to the vah a
and the importance of the census than
our section has permitted itself to be.
That is an unpleasant fact, but it is un
deniable.
The census of the current year will
win a more commanding position in the
eyes of the world than any of the
twelve that have been written. v
During the ensuing ten years the cen
sus of 1910 will be referred to, consult
ed and quoted as a standard and sole
authority on all questions which touch
the lives of a progressive people. Hence
the necessity for a thorough apprecia
tion of its value and importance by the
people of the South.
The South has made great strides
along every line of desirable growth
during the ten years just past. Every
fact which tends to illustrate the high
degree and the full measure of that
progress ought to be entered of record,
knd thus become a part and" parcel of
the census.'
We need carefully to note and report
the facts which relate to agriculture
in all its branches in the South. Dig
deep for those facts. There is nothing
in the history of Southern progress . of

Each of the chief or
gans of the body is a

iLife. A chain is no
'stronger than its
weakest link, the body
no stronger than, its
weakest organ. If there is weakness # stomach, liver or lungs,, there is a
-weak link in the chain of life which may snap at any time. Often this so-called
weakness” is caused by lack of nutrition, the result of weakness or disease
of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition. Diseases and
-weaknesses of the stomach and its allied organs are cured by the use of Dr.
Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. When the weak or diseased stomaoh is
cured, diseases of other organs which seem remote from the stomach but which,
have their origin in a diseased condition of the stomach and
Other organs of digestion and nutrition, are cured also.
The strong man baa a strong stomach.

which we need be ashamed; everything
of which to be proud.
We appeal to our people to make
ready to receive the census-taker. Ex
tend to him a cordial welcome. Be pre
pared to give him full and accurately
every fact that is diligently sought for
by the questions which he will pro
pound.
Understand that the schedules which
he must fill with the facts you give him
are not for purposes of taxation, but
for information—information which,
when presented under the scholarly
touch of the skilled statisticians at
Washington, who will edit the census
as a whole, will challenge the wonder
and the admiration of the world, or, if
reported in an indifferent and unappre
ciative spirit, will militate against us,
against our every interest as a cultured
and a progressive people.
Do not underrate the value and the
superior importance of the census of
1910 which is about to be taken.

Georgy Richmond Hayes, the noted
San Francisco ethnologist, said at a re
cent dinner:
“The yellow race? are held in better
esteem than used to be the case in the
West.
“I once visited a very rough boom
town in Oregon, near Cottage Grove.
In the leading saloon a man in a red
shirt said to me:
“ ‘Yewanter carry yourself almighty
straight in these parts, strartger. Go
wrong the least mite, and, by crimus,
we will lynch ye as quick as look at
ye.’
‘I smiled.
* ‘Would you lynch me,’ I asked, ‘if
I killed a dog?'
“ ‘Would we?' he snorted. ‘Why,
stranger, we ve lynched fellers here for
killin r Chinamen. ''
Southern Generals.
Washington Post.
The attitude of most of the ^ great
generals of the Confederacy toward
slavery is set forth in a recent book, the
writer showing that the men who led
the cause had little at stake save prin
ciple. Robert E. Lee, it is asserted,
never owned a slave, except a few in
herited from his mother, all of whom
were emancipated by him long before
the war. Gen. Joseph E. Johnston
owned none, and regarded the institu
tion unfavorably, Gen. A. P. Hill
owned none, and Gen. J. E. B. Stuart
inherited one and purchased another,
but disposed of both before the war.
Fitzhugh Lee owned none, while Mat
thew F; Maury owned but one, a wo
man, who remained in his service some
years after the war. Maury said the
institution of slavery was a “curse.''
According to the author, even “Stone
wall" Jackson owned but two slaves, a
man and a woman, both of whom he
purchased at their own solicitation. He
told them that they could purchase
their freedom by saving their wages
and reimbursing him for their purchase
price. The man did this, but the wo
man preferred to remain in the service
of the family.
The story strongly supports those
who have always contended that the
South fought for principle rather than
the fortunes tied up in slaves. It makes
it clear that the generate who led the
cause were certainly inspired by any
thing but selfishness.
Nature furnishes fresh air to be used.
