Information to Those Who Have Corn to Sell
1
If you will put your corn in merchantable condition you will realize highest peices and
be in position to ship to any market you wish. We are in position to shell your corn in
shuck and grind shucks and cobs into feed. The value of your shucks and cobs, after being
ground, will more than pay the expense of shelling. It will pay you to investigate this and
we will be pleased to have you write us, or call and we will give you all the necessary infor-
mation. Don’t forget to bring your corn stalks, velvet beans and pea vine hay to have them
ground into feed, when they are dry enough. We advise that you do not haul your stalks
until they are thoroughly dry, in order that your feed will keep. When desired we will add
molasses to this feed, which improves it very much and makes it dustless.

APPLE AND ROSE.
My little daughter is a tea-rose—
Satin to the touch,
Wine to the lips.
And a faint, delirious perfume;
But my little son
Is a June apple—
Firm and cool.
And scornful of too much sweetness.
But full of tang and flavor.
And better than bread to the hungry.
O. wild windB and clumsy, pilfering bees.
With the whole world to be wanton in.
Will you not spare my little tea-rose?
And O. ruthless, blind creatures
Who lay eggs of evil at the core of life.
Pass by my one red apple
That is so firm and sound!
[Karle Wilson Baker.
October.
Madison Madisonian.
The bursting buds of springtime and
the fruits and flowers of the long sum
mer days have given place to the mil
lion tints and ripened fruits of a golden
and glorious autumn. Out in the cot
ton fields of our sunny Southland the
bursting bolls are whitening under the
sweet influences of Pleaides and of
Orion, while the silvery harvest moon
adds its mellow light to the beauty of a
perfect October night. In field and
forest, on hillside and glen, the stately
goldenrod waves its kingly head in the
softly sighing breezes that blow, sweet
and low, like winds of the Western sea.
Out in the pathless woods the leaves of
the forest are turning from green to
gold, as if a mighty Midas had changed
them by his magic touch. The mock
ing-bird sings just as sweetly as he did
during the merry months of June, only
his tones are softer and more subdued.
The cornfields are full of ripened grain,
while the meadows are sweet with the
breath of new-mown hay. The hot,
sultry days of August are gone, and
there is a chilliness and a crispness felt
in the morning air that betokens the
early approach of Jack Frost. Per
simmons are ripening, and the crop is
abundant, while the horn of the hunter
will soon be heard over moor and fen
as his pack chases the fat 'possum to
his den. The smiles of a generous God
are upon our fair land. The fields have
yielded up their treasures to the toil
ers on our farms, and the harvest is at
hand. October, 1916, finds our country
free from the horrors of war. The na
tion is at peace. Let ua therefdre
“give thanks unto the Lord; for He is
good; for His mercy endifreth forever."
“Shall We Meet Again."
George D. Prentice, the poet editor
of the Louisville Journal, wrote many
pretty things, but nothing finer than
the prose-poem reprinted below in
response to the question “Shall We
Meet Again?" Cut this out and paste
it in your scrap book—
“The flat of death is inexorable.
There is no appeal for relief from the
great law which dooms us to dust. We
flourish and fade as the leaves of the
forest, and the flowers that bloom,
wither and fade in a day have no frailer
hold upon life than the mightiest mon
arch that ever shook the earth with his
footsteps. Generations of men will ap
pear and disappear as the grass, and
the multitudes that throng the world to
day will disappear as footprints on the
shore. Men seldom think of the great
event of death until the shadow falls
across their pathway, hiding from their
eyes the face of loved ones whose liv
ing smile was the sunlight of their ex
istence. Death is the antagonist of
life, and the thought of the tomb is the
skeleton of all feasts. We do not
want to go through the dark valley,
although the passage may lead to Par
adise; we do not want to go down
into damp graves even with princes for
bedfellows. In the beautiful drama of
‘lone’ the hope of immortality, so elo
quently uttered by the death-devoted
Greek, finds deep response in every
thoughtful soul. When about to yield
his life a sacrifice to fake, his Cleman-
the asks if they should meet again, to
which he responds: ‘I have asked that
dreadful question of the hills that look
eternal—of the clear streams that flow
forever—of stars among whose fields of
azure my raised spirits have walked in
glory. All are dumb. But, as I gaze
upon thy living face, I feel that there
is something in love that mantles
through its beauty that cannot wholly
perish. We shall meet again, Cle*
manthe."

Oil Company Wants Peanuts.
Bainbridge, Ga., Oct. 16.—The Em
pire Cotton Oil Co., of this city, has
decided to add peanut crushing to its
line, and has announced that it is in
the market for 10,000 tons of peanuts.
Manager Carter is doing all in his
power to encourage Decatur county
farmers to grow peanuts another year,
assuring them of a ready cash market
at all times for their products. The
first crushing made this week was from
peanuts shipped in from Alabama. Mr.
Carter argues that his mills here and
at Blakely will take care of more pea
nuts than this section can possibly
grow, and there is no danger of an
over-production.
Prices paid this week were around 90
cents per bushel, and, with lands here
capable of producing from 60 to 80
bushels to the acre, there is no reason
why peanuts should not be a very
profitable crop.
Teach your boy that it is better to die
than to live; that it is better to starve
than to steal; that it is better to be a
scavenger or a woodchopper than an idler
and a deadbeat; that it is just as criminal
and reprehensible to waste Monday as to
desecrate Sunday; that labor is the
price of all honest possessions; that no
one is exempt from the obligation to
labor with head, hands or heart; that
an honest man is the noblest work of
God; that knowledge is power; that
labor is worship and idleness sin; that
it is better to eat the crust of indepen
dent poverty than to luxuriate amid the
richest vianda as a dependent. Teach
him these facts until they are woven
into his being and regulate his life, and
we will insure his success —though the
heavens fail.

There is a Real Difference
Cream of tartar, derived from grapes,
is used in Royal Baking Powder because
it is the best and most healthful ingredient
known for the purpose.
Phosphate and alum, which are de
rived from mineral sources, are used in
some baking powders, instead of cream of
tartar, because they are cheaper.
If you have been induced to use baking
powders made from alum or phosphate,
use Royal Baking Powder instead. You
will be pleased with the results and the
difference in the quality of the food.
