AFTER SUFFERING
TWO UNC YEARS
Mrs. Aselin Was Restored to
Health by Lydia E. Pink-
ham’s Vegetable
Compound.
Minneapolis, Minn.—“After my little
one was born I was sick with pains in
my sides which the
doctors said were
caused hy inflamma
tion. 1 suffered a
great deal every
month and grew very
thin. I was under the
doctor’s care for two
long years without
any benefit. Finally
after repeated sug
gestions to try it we
got Lydia E. Pink-
ham’s Vegetable Compound. After tak
ing the third bottle of the Compound I
was able to do my housework and today
I am strong and healthy again. I will
answer letters if anyone wishes to know
about my case.”—Mrs. Joseph Aselin,

Plant any one of the following va
rieties of peas ns soon as danger of
frost Is past: Iron, Brabham, New
Era, Warren's Extra Early, Whlppor-
will. Clay or lllack. The preference
is in the order named. If planted as
soon as danger of frost is past on land
which is in fair condition and where
reasonable skill In fertilization has
been exercised, you should be able to
get a crop of hay off the land, and
have sufficient aftermath volunteers
to produce a fairly good crop of grain,
or quite a satisfactory crop of hay,
or, better still, a considerable amount
of grazing for hogs or cattle, in oth
er words, in our experience it has
been possible from one planting of
peas to make from one and a half to
three tons of hay per acre on grtod
land and then gather from ten to fif
teen bushels of peas. The second
crop or aftermath, as a rule, does
not make a big growth and a large
amount of vine, hut the peas set on
freely and produce a surprisingly
large amount of grain.
inoculate the peas. You cnti secure
cultures for this purpose free of cost
from die bureau of plant industry,
United States department of agricul
ture, Washington, D. C. Plant in drills
twenty-four inches apart. This will
enable otto to cultivate the crop
lightly until it spreads and covers the
ground. In this way one can econo
mize on die seed and secure a larger
return per acre. At least we have
found this to be true in our own ex
perience. We advise die use of 300
to 400 pounds of acid phosphate under
the peas at the time of planting. We
think it will pay you to use from
1,000 to 2,000 pounds of pulverized
lime rock per acre. The lime should
be put on after die ground has been
plowed and should be harrowed in.
Do not mix it with fertilizer, but ap
ply it about two weeks before plant
ing the crop.

Plans For The Feeder Of
One To Five Beef Cattle
Milton P. Jarnagin, Prof. Animal Hus
bandry, Ga. State Col. of Agr.
Co-operating with the county farm
demonstration agents tho College of
Agriculture is enlisting farmers
throughout the state in fattening cat
tle for beef, undertaking especially to
get the small farmer who may have
from one to five cattle ’to fatten, to
take up the work on a systematic ba
sis. The demonstration agent nnds
the farmer who will undertake to fat
ten one or more cattle, gets enough
cattle in a community to make a car
load shipment and assists in market
ing them to the best advantage when
they are ready to sell.
Instructions are sent out as to how
to put beef cattle on feed and what
rations to provide until finished for
the market. Beef experts of the Col
lege doing field work will visit and ad
vise the farmers from time to time.
Farmers will be urged to use any
kind of animal available, (lie hope be
ing that when (lie farmer has started
into feeding cattle for beef Unit lie
will be interested sufficiently to pur
chase and breed beef types.
For tlie farmer with one 1o five cat
tle to fatten, the College is advising
the planting of sorghum in rows, so
that it can be cultivated and pro
duce well. This is to be used as the
chief roughage.
Corn stover and oats straw
will be recommended as an additional
feed in that lixle while cotton seed
meal will be relied upon as the con
centrate. With such a ration, it is
believed that beef can be fattened
as cheaply and as well as anywhere
in the United States.
Where the nearby market is not the
best, it is proposed to have enough
cattle iti a community to make a car
load shipment to more favorable mar
kets. The demonstration agent is
not only to see that there are enough
farmers enlisted in the work to make
up the carload shipment, but they are
to see to it that the farmers start
their feeding at tlie same time, so
that they will be ready to sell at the
proper time.

All trains daily. Odd numbers,

bound.
Loy E. Rast, Professor Of Cotton
Industry
The important place that cotton
holds in Southern agriculture anil in
view of the fact that it will prob
ably never be less prominent, it be
comes pertinent that more attention
be paid to its methods of handling
and marketing. There is an increasing
demand for trained warehousemen and
cotton buyers.
A course in cotton grading is espec
ially desirable at the present time,
since the grades taught are those of
the new standards which after Febru
ary lSth, 1!)15, are mandatory as a
basis of future contract.
The quickest and easiest way
to do this is to attend (he Summer
Cotton Grading School during the pres
ent summer at the Georgia State Col
lege of Agriculture, June 28th to July
31st.
Studepts will have a groat many
samples to handle daily and thereby
become thoroughly familiar with the
appearance of the various grades. The
whole course, although based on strict
scientific principles, is extremely prac
tical and every one who satisfactorily
completes the course should be in a
position to take hharge of a cotton
warehouse and buy and sell cotton
with no difficulty.
Repeated mention in the dispatches
of the German forty-two centimeter
guns reminds a well-known New York
er of a darkey who was working in
his establishment at the time the
Spanish-American war broke out.
“George,” inquired his employer
one day, when tie discovered the wait
er absorbed in the latest war bulletins,
“are you perhaps thinking of enlisting
nnd fighting for your country?”
“Who, me?” inquired the startled
George. "Naw, suh! lse been readin’
in de paper ’bout dese heah cannons
dem Spanishes is got. W’y, boss, dey
got a gun dat shoots eight niileB and
den th’ows rocks half a hour!”
If our white farmers nre to get away
from negro competition they must
simply do a better type, of farming
than the negro can do; nnd the lm
portant fact to consider here is that if
we are going to develop this type of
farming in the South, there is im
perative need for encouraging just
such white neighborhoods ns we have
been discussing. There is need (1) be
cause white farmers cannot succeed
adequately with up-to-date farming
methods, except in co-operation with
their neighbors; and (2) they cannot
succeed adequately in co-operation with
any neighbors except white neighbors.
—The Progressive Farmer.
A small, meek country negro, who

Frankfort, Kentucky, mnrried a big,
domineering woman, and very soon
afterward moved into town, where the
keeper of the local bar met him on the

“Hello, Gube,” he said, “what made
you move to town? I thought you
liked country life.”
“Well, Mistah Franklin,” explained
Gabe, “I uster lak de country. But

STOMACH
TROUBLE
FOR FIVE YEARS
Majority of Friends Thought Mr.
Hughes Would Die, But
One Helped Him to
Recovery.
Pomeroyton, Ky.—In interesting ad
vices from this place, Mr. A. J. Hughes
writes as follows: “I was down with
stomach trouble for five (5) years, and
would have sick headache so bad, at
times, that l thought surely I would die.
I tried different treatments, but they
did not seem to do me any good.
I got so bad, I could not eat or sleep,
and all my friends, except one, thought I
would die. He advised me to try
Thedford’s Black-Draught, and quit
taking other medicines. I decided to
take his advice, allhough I did not have
any confidence in it. ■
I have now been taking Black-Draught
for three months, and it has cured me—
haven’t had those awful sick headaches
since I began using it.
I am so thankful for what Bldck-
Draught has done for me.”
Thedford’s Black-Draught has been
found a very valuable medicine for de
rangements of the stomach and liver. It
is composed of pure, vegetable herbs,
contains no dangerous ingredients, and
acts gently, yet surely. It can be freely
used by young and old, and should be
kept in every family chest.

SAVANNAH PREPARED FOR
GREAT MAY WEEK FESTIVAL
Amazing in its scope and magnitude and unique in the history of the
South, will be the gigantic May Week Festival and Pageant, to be held
at Savannah for the entire week beginning May 17.
Practically every man, woman and child in the Forest City is en
thusiastic and neither money nor individual labor has been spared to
place the celebration in a class which will cause it to be remembered for
years to come by the people of Georgia and adjacent states.
Among the much talked-of features will be the return of General
Oglethorpe and the spectacular public dancing on the “Plaza of Mirth.
On the night of May 18, General Oglethorpe, with his Indian friend,
Tomo-chi-chi; John Wesley, John Musgrave, and numerous other col
onists and Indians will proceed up the river and into the harbor at the
foot of Bull street, in the good ship “Anne.” The landing will lie effected
with ceremony and amid the flare of calcium lights, lhe pipe of peace will
be smoked and the man who founded Georgia will be welcomed back to
his city, and given the key to Savnnah. This will be followed by a mam
moth parade of organizations, including Red Men, Colonial Dames, Daugh
ters of. the Revolution, Daughters of the Confederacy, Mounted Police,
Firemen, Representatives of the Board of Trade, and a half hundred other
fraternal and civic organizations.
The dancing on the Plaza of Mirth will take place the evening of
May 20. A portion of famous Bull street in the center of the business and
financial district will be roped and closed, and scats and boxes will lie
erected for 2,000 people, in addition to the free standing room on the side
walks. The street, washed and covered with meal, will offer 35,000 square
feet of dancing area and at 8:30 P. M. there will begin a program of his
torical and character dances, participated in by the best known society
people of that section. There will be the stately minuet, the old-fashioned
square dances, reels and horn pipe of the days of our great grandfathers.
There will be Indian war dances in costume, depicting the Yamacraws,
when their tribe lived on the banks of the Savannah River where the
city now stands. There will be tangoes and fox trots of the newer
generation and at the completion of the set program the night will be
given over to dancing by the public.
The streets will be a blaze of electric glory. The trees, monuments,
housetops and every available spot will be radiant with myriads of multi
colored lights, and Savannah will be a veritable Fairyland.
One of the features of the week will be a parade of 1,500 tiny first-
grade school children in 300 automobiles. The entire program in its ten
tative form follows:
May Week Dates—May 17-22, inclusive.
Tuesday—3:30 p. m.—Municipal parade of fire and police departments.
4:30—Play Festival in the Park Extension till 6 o’clock.
Tuesday Night—“The Return of Oglethorpe."
Wednesday—Auto parade of the children of the city schools. This is
to start at 5 o’clock p._ m.
Wednesday Night—D. O. K. K. parade, and other seer t orders.
Thursday—K. of P. drills in the Park Extension, to start at 4:30 p. m.
Thursday Night—“Plaza of Mirth.” Dancing on beautiful Bull street
by the music of two military bands. Begin 8:30, closing hour indefinite.
Friday—Military parade.
Friday Night—Dancing and other attractions on “Plaza of Mirth.”
Saturday—Athletic contests of all local and out-of-town talent. Start
at 3:30 p. m. Park Extension.
A number of men of national reputation will be Savannah’s guests and
it is expected that thousands of people from Georgia, Florida, Alabama,
and South Carolina will journey to the big Festival which bids fair to out
shine any similar event in the last decade. The railroads have offered
the lowest rates named for special occasions.

a goose farmer at Wind Point, Mich,
while trying to drive geese from tho
Lake Michigan shore to the front yard
of his homo just before feeding time,
hit the boss gander of the flock with a
stick and so angered the huge bird that
he turned upon the child with the rest of
the geese, and live minutes after Frank
was rescued hy his father he died. Phy
sicians say the boy died of convulsions,
but his eyes had been picked out and he
was otherwise badly injured. His fath

would leave the child.
In a certain office the manager was
about to he rnuiried. The stall raised
a fund to buy a wedding present. The
total amounted to something like fifty
dollars.
“What wo want to do,” said the
collector of the sum, “is to get the
chief a present that will make the
moBt show for the money —something
that will spread out and show up strong.
Anybody got any suggestions?”
“Buy him fifty dollars’ worth of
rice,” said the vice-president, “and
boil it!”
An Irishman, who wasn’t much of a
hunter, went out to hunt one day, and
the first thing he saw to shoot at was
a bird sitting saucily on the top of a
fence. He blazed away and then
walked over to pick up the victim.
What he found there was a dead frog,
which he raised carefully at arm’s
length, looking at it with a puzzled air.
Finally he remarked:
“Well, but ye was a deuce of a
foine looking burd befur Oi blew the
Cithers off o’ ye!”
A young woman prominent in tho
social set of an Ohio town tells of a
young man there who had not familiar
ized himself with the iorms of polite
correspondence to the fullest extent.
When on one occasion he found it
necessary to decline an invitation, he
did so in the following terms:
“Mr, Henry Blank declines with
pleasure Mrs. Wood’s invitation for
the l'Jth, and thanks her extremely for
having given him the opportunity of
doing so.”
