Hutchens Saturday night and Sunday. April 14th. TURIN. Mr. John Carmical had the misfor tune to lose his fine buggy animal one day hist week. To lose a horse at this season is a loss indeed, and we sympa thize with Mr. Carmical. For the good of work animals we suggest that their feed he moistened in mild salt water before putting it in the trough. This will soften the feed and render it more easily digested. At this season of the year work sleek eat hurriedly, and, if the feed be corn, sometimes results in colic. If the above suggestion is car ried out it will not only he best for the animal, hut amount to a saving of about one-third in tho quantity of feed required. Stock thus fed, and not allowed to drink too much cold water at a time, will fatten and preserve their teeth down to old uge. Another sug gestion in this connection: During hot weather work stock that become over heated should he given a short rest be fore being fed, in order that the nerv ous system may be soothed and quieted before taking food into the stomach. Guano dealers at this place Bay that fertilizer sales up to date have been about one-fourth the quantity sold as compared with sales to the same date last year. If this decrease in the use of fertilizers prevails throughout the cotton belt, it is inevitable that there will he a material reduction in the quantity of cotton produced this year. We were talking with one of our good farmers a few days since, and he stated that he would not plant one seed of cotton this year, but would devote his acreage to other crops. And that farmer will probably he better off next fall than the farmer who puts his usual acreage in cotton. Cotton as a money crop has its allurements, but the farmer who raises cotton to pay for supplies with which to make cotton cannot, prosper. The farmer who raises food crops and meat at home is the one who succeeds. April 16th. SARGENT. Mrs. G. L. Warren visited relatives in Newnan Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. C. E.
