Milton County New*.
How du yuu Kreel
he comes to town?
Is your greeting such
that he is not one of us'
to feel that he is in town, among his
people, and with his frienus?
The making or the marring of the
town depends greatly upon your atti
tude toward the farmer when he fa
vors us with his visits.
He is the backbone of the commu
nity, and without his aid and encour
agement we would he an unsuccessiul
business community.
The townsman is no better than the
man from the farm, and the farmer
can claim no superiority over the towns
man.
We Bre all human beings, with the
same aims and purposes in lile, en
dowed with the same braridB of in
telligence.
In fact, we are brothers of u com
mon community, the only difference be
ing that the one lives in town, where
life is a little more diversified, while
the other breathes (lod'B pure air in the
green fields of the country.
Let us remember that we are broth
ers, and sisters, and cousins, and that
the welfare of the one is vitul to the
success of the other.
When we ride out into the country
the farmer extends the hand of fellow
ship, bids us welcome, and hands ub a
hearty "come again."
It is a delightful characteristic of the
man from the farm, for his greeting is
sincere and his invitation is from the
heart.
But what of us when the farmer
comes to town?
Is our welcome on the same high
plane as his?
Is he made to feel and realize that
our smile iB for him, and not for the
contents of his purse?
We of the town are proud of the
farmers of this community, and of their
wivts and their daughters.
They are men and women of a high
order uf intelligence, whose integrity
ia beyond question, and whose thrift,
and energy, und perseverance is trans
forming our countryside into a hive of
industry und wealth.
They are builders, one and all.
But we fear that we of the lown are
often forgetful of the great duty that
we owe to them for their loyalty and
generosity in support of the local busi
ness community.
We ourselves know of the high re
gard in which we hold the farmers of
the community, but we doubt if the
farmer knows of the warm sentiments
which we entertain towurd him.
And this is because we think much
and aay too little.
It should not be so.
Let us of the town cultivate a more
friendly and neighborly spirit, let us
open up our hearts that the farmer
may look within, for we are but one
big family und should dwell-together in
unity and brotherly love.
Let us act as we feel, and give the
farmer to understand that he is of us,
as well ns with us.
We need each other, for a prosperous
farming community makes a live town,
and the prosperity of the town adds
life and enjoyment to the countryside.
There are women who live to dresF,
and the more frtquent and radical the
changes are the better they like it. If
their pocketbooks can stand It no great
harm is done. But the great majority
of women can’t afford to keep up with
this pace. The result is that some stay
at heme because their clothes are not
in the latest style, many are made un
happy, and others keep up with the
procession it matters not what the cost,
If a mun can wear the same suit for
eight or ten years and not look like a
freak why is it not possible to design
an evening gown for a woman that will
be in good style as long ub it may be
worn? It is absurd to hear a woman
say, "1 haven't a thing to wear," wfi« n
•he may have half a dozen gowns all in
good condition, —Leslie's Weekly.
Beauty may be only skin deep, but it
is nearly always effective.
A WISE CHOICE.
A Newnan
The June Brides.
G**>. Fitch.
June bridpR form une of the principal
products of the justly celebrated month
which we are now inhaling with deep
pleasure.
No month approaches June in the
turning of blithe and happy maidens
into flushed and heated young married
women, gazing wilh fear upon a cake
which is threatening to explode at any
minute. From the first to the thirtieth of
June countless thousands of American
girls will place their slim white-gloved
hands in the perspiring paw of an equal
number of American young men and
will conduct them to the church and
into matrimony wilh firm steps. By
July the available crop of brides will
be practically exhausted, and the min
isters of the country will have to de
pend upon raising cnickens for their pin
money until the fall rush sets in.
Nobody knows why June is so exces
sively matrimonial, hut the scientific in
vestigator can discover many highly
suspicious reasons.
In the first place, vast numbers of
young women get out of college and
high schools in this ‘month, and the
young men who have been saving up
money for the furniturt decline to wait
any longer.
In the second place, rice, roses and
wedding trips are cheaper in June, and
coal hills do not look so depressing.
In the third place, the girl who be
comes a housewife in this month has
until December to learn how to build
the tires in the morning.
The flowers and sunshine of June are
very beautiful, hut not so beautiful as
the young woman who stands under a
Niagara of gauze veiling holding a 4-
pound bouquet in one arm and promises
to do her best to make a paradise out
of a 6 room cottage for the reBt of her
life. People go to June weddings to see
this sight with great enthusiasm. They
ought, to go with equal vim to tar and
feather the human catastrophe who
takes a beautiful and smiling bride out
of a church in June and sends her into
court a few years luter, worn and bat
tered, to trade her hopes for a divorce
certificate.
Gazing at the radiant June bride we
are of the firm opinion that the fathers
of this country are to > civilized when it
comes to arguing with sons-in-law who
do not make good as sumples of civili
zation.
Makes Money by Growing Alfalfa.
Home Tribune-Horultl.
According to the statement of J. H.
Foster, Floyd county’s capable and en
ergetic farm adviser, it pays to grow
alfalfa and grain in this county. He
cites ns an instance Mr. S. ,1. Whatley,
who farms Hbout ten miles from Rome.
Mr. Whatley h»H four acres planted in
alfulfa, and has already made a second
cutting. He will get two more crops,
and when he does, judging by the two
already harvested, the land will have
brought him $125 an acre. His crop
averages tight loads of about 2,000
pounds each, and when converted into
hay will make from five to six tons.
The present price of this hay exceeds
$20 a ton.
Mr. Whatley has also planted oats,
of which he will harvest 75 bushels to
the acre. He has sixty head of cattle
to eat his hBy, and he is little concerned
about the price of cotton.
Mr. Foster says that all Floyd county
farmers who have planted grain and
properly prepared the land will have
good crops.
A boy 12 years of age—n member of
the corn club —now has corn knee-high
to an average man. On the acre he is
cultivating he used 800 pounds of fer
tilizer.
Not (or Men Only.
Foley's Cathartic Tablets are not ns
insistently demanded by women as by
men, because this particular cathartic
is not %o well known among women
Women suffer as much as men do from
indigestion and constipation, and they
also require this scientific remedy to
keep the stomach sweet, the liver ac
tive and the bowels regular. Foley's
Cathartic Tablets are wholesome and
thoroughly cleansing: do not gripe or
cause nausea. Stout people say this is
the one cathartic ttrnt takes away that

Injustice to the Railroads.
The plarinf? injustice of the Govern- I
rnent's tri-atment of the railroads in
the matter of carry the mails is brought j
out in a comparison of what Uncle Sam j
pays his own road and what he pay-
oth»rs. The Government-owned Puna-I
ma railroad received last rear, accord
ing to a statement by the committee on
railway mail pay, $2 77 for each ton of j
mail carried a mile, while the private
roads in the United States, according
to estimates of the Postoflice Depart
ment, received about Hi cents per ton
for each mile. If this is the kind of
extravagance the Government owner
ship of railroad stands for, it will he a
long while before the voters of this
country will give it seriouB considera
tion. Had the privately owned rail
roads of the Unittd States been paid
on the same basis as the Panama rail
road, instead of receiving $56,<iOO,000 or
about one-fifth of the Postoifice De
partment revenues, they would have
received $1,557,000,000, or more than
live times the total revenues of the de
partment. The railroads have not
asked Congress to advance mail pay
rates. All they have asked is to be
paid for all ihe mail they carry and for
all the special facilities and services
they furnish the J’ostoffice Department.
Advertise Your Goods.
Don’t imagine for a moment that
advertising won’t bring you results in
your immediate field. This is an error
that many merchants make when they
assure themselves that th< ir store is so
well known that it doesn't require
newspaper advertising—that the trade
will naturally drift his way anyhow.
There isn't a store anywhere in the
world that has so secure a foot-
ting as that —not a single store —and
you are not doing business in so profit
able a field hut that your sales can be
increased by careful newspaper adver
tising. If this is not true, why is it
that a stream of mail orders is con
stantly going out of your town to
catalogue houses? And are not these
sales made by the catalogue houses the
resplt of persistent apvertising In the
very field you feel that >ou have culti
vated to the limit? Whenever you get
such an idea fixed in your mind, and
really believe that there is nothing
more to cor.quer, you are simply turning
i ver ready money to the man that does
possess the broader vision—you are
ceding territory and rights to others
that careful newspaper advertising
would retain in your possession.
A Word to Boys.
Th«» Bit? Brother.
Young man, there is one thing you
cannot do. You cannot make a success
in life unless you work. Belter men
than you have tried it and failed. You
can’t loaf around the streets, smoke ci
garettes, tell foul stories, drink whis
key and sponge on somebody else with
out making a failure in life. You must
learn a trude or get into some honest
business. If you don’t you will be a
chronic loafer, despised by all, produc
ing nothing, simply making yourself a
burden on your parents or the State.
There is no place in the world for
loafers. The ripe fruit is all at the top
of the tree. You must climb to get it.
If you wait for it to fall at your feet
you will never get it. Smarter men
will jump up and get it all. Move. Do
something, no matter how small. It
will be a starter. Help yourself ar.d
others will help you. There is no royal
road to success. Toil, grit and endur
ance, these are the requisites. Wake
up and see what you can do.
The curate of a fashionable church
w is endeavoring to teach the signifi-
cince of white to a Sunday-school class.
"Why,” said he, "does a bride in
variably desire to be clothed in white
at her marriage?” As no one answered
he explained: "White," he said,
"stands for joy, and the wedding day
is the mos joyous occasion of a wo
man's life.”
A small boy queried: "Why do the
men all wear black?”

I remember, I remember the house j
where I was horn: the little window i
where the sun came peeping in at j
morn. You'd hardly know the old I
place now, for dad is up to date, and I
the farm is scientific fiom the I ack to !
the gate. The house and the barn are 1
lighted with bright acetylene, the en
gine in the laundry is run by gasoline;
we have silos, we have autos, we have
dynamos and things, a telephone for
gossip and a phonograph that sings.
The hired man has left us—we miss
his homely face; a lot of college gradu
ates are working in his place. Thete's
an engineer and fireman, a chauffeur
and a vet,, 'lectrician and a mechanic.
Oh, the farm’s run right, you bet. The
little window where the sun came
peeping in at morn now brightens up a
bath-room that cost a car of corn. Our
milkmaid iB pneumatic and she's sani
tary, too, but dad gets fifteen cents a
quart for milk that once brought two.
Our cattle came from Jersey, and the
hogB are all Duroc; the sheep are
Southdown beauties and the chickens
Plymouth Rock. To have the best of
everything, that is our aim and plan,
for dad not only farms it, but he’s a
business man.
Information Wanted.
The Argonaut.
It was the mayor of a Western city
who received the following inquiry from
an Eastern resident:
"Kind and Respected Cir: I Eee in a
paper that a man named John Sipes
was atacted and et up by a bare whose
cubs he was trying to git when the she
bare came up and stopt him by eating
him up in the mountains near your
town. What I want to know is, did it
kill him or was he only partly et up,
and is he from the place and all about
the bare? 1 don’t know but what he is
a distant husband of mine. My first
husband was of that name and I sup
posed he was kilted in the war, and,
the name of the man the bare et being
the same, I thought it might be him
after all, and I ought to know it if he
wasn’t killed either in the war or by
the bear, for I have been married twice
since, and there ought to be divorce
papers got out by him and me. He sings
base and has a spread eagle tatoed on
his front chest and a anker on his right
arm, which you will know him by if the
bare did not eat up these sines of it’s
being: him. If alive, don’t tell him 1 arn
married to Joe White, for he never did
liked Joe. Mebbe you'd better let on
as if I'm ded; that is if the bare din not
eat him all up. If it did, I don’t see as
yo do anything, and you needn’t take
no trouble. Please ancer back.
“P. S. — Was the bare kilted? Also,
was he married agin, and did he leave
any property wuth me laving claim
to?’’
Some time ago Brown rushed into the
kitchen where his wife was bossing the
preparation of the evening hash. In
one of his fists he was holding his other
hand, while a cussy expression was
floating over his features.
"Where is that antiseptic salve, Min
nie?” he demanded. "That infernal
parrot of yours has bitten a chunk out
of my hand!"
"What’s that, Jimmy!” exclaimed
wifey, with a look of concern. "Do
you mean to say that he bit a piece all
the way out of your hand?"
"That’s what he did,” answered
James. "Clean as a whistle. Where
did you say that salve was?"
"Oh, Jimmy,” returned wife in a
complaining voice, “I do wish you
would be more careful. You know the
bird dealer told me not to let that par
rot taste meat under any circumstan
ces.”
