The Coming Reuni jo.
Atlanta, Noy. 1.--Pressure is
being brought to bear oo Gen.
C. A. Evans to retain the com
mandersbip of tbe Georgia Div
ision of Confederate Veterans,
and it is now believed by his
friends that he will.
Gen. Evans said this morning
he Lad received numerous letters
from !ue different camps, and
manv of the yeterans had called
to see him to urge him to rtt iiu
the place. Re said he would ro
fuse tostind for re-election, but
he did not say he woul 1 refuse
the position if it were again ten
dered him, and it is Bure to be.
Capt. Tip Harrison says the
veterans are going ahead and
elect Gen. Evans to the position
despite his announcement that he
will retire, and that they are go
ing to insist on him remaining at
the head of tho organization.
Capt. Harrisou says the veterans
are determined to keep Gen.
Kyans, and it ts his opinion that
the General will remain when he
sees the sentiment of the meeting
is for him.
Gen. Evans will go to Augusta
on Saturday night t> make the
final arrangements for the reun
ion, which begins on Nov, 14. He
says some important things will
coma up at tbe reunion, among
which will be the G. A. R. resolu
tions about school books in South •
ern schools. Tbe history commit
tee of the Georgia vet uans, it is
understood, has prepared some
warm resolutions in reply to those
of the G. A. R., and it is also said
that the Sons of Veterans have
some of a similar naiure.
Gen. Eyans is expecting a big
attendance at the reunion and be
lies that 3.000 or 4,000 veterans
will be on hand when the meeting
is called to order.—Sav. News.
To remove a troublesome conr
or bunion; First soak the corn or
bunion in warm water to soften it,
then pare it down as closely as
possible without drawing blood
and apply Chambelain’s Pain
Balm twice daily, rubbing vigor

plication. A corn plaster should
be worn for a few days, to protect
it from the shoe. As a geueral

Cluuv Macpherson, whose death
occurred recently in Scotland, on
a certain occasion having dealings
iu bis castle with one of the very
poorest of his clansmen, had him
into one of the rooms, which had
just been redecorated at great ex
pense, says Loudon M, A. P.
“vVhat do you think of this?”
queried the chieftain; “the var
nishing alone of this room cost
me 5 X150.”
“That’s naetbin’ ava,” was the
astonishing response. “If ye’ll
come alang tae ma bit hoose A'll
show ye a room that cost fanr
mair than that tae be coated.”
And so an appointment was
made, the Colonel wondering that
be bad never beard of it before.
When he visited the place, a poor
looking, thatched, little "big
ging,” he was shown into a room
so dark that he could scarcely see,
with its walls literally blackened
by the smoke from a peat fire.
“Here’s ma room,” exclaimed
the triumphant tenant. “A mak
oct that it took five bunner loads
o’ peat tue coat it, and at 10s tbe
load that makes two bunner and

ALFALFA
Its Va u ■ t > F.ii-m rs Wh i Raise Beef,
Pork and Mi k.
As alfalfa is absolutely essential
to the cheapest production of
beef, pork and milk and the rapid
growth of young farm animals, it
is evident that farmers without it
are at a great disadvantage. Our
work in fattening hogs shows its
value. One lot of hogs were fed
ail the grain they would eat, and
another lot all the grain aud all
the alfalfa hay they would eat.
The hogs haying the alfalfa hay
ate more grain and gained more
pounds of pork for each bushel of
grain consumed, showing a gaiu
of 868 pounds of porK per ton of
alfalfa hav. Hogs on alfalfa pas
ture showed a gaiu of 776 pounds
per acre of pasture.
Alfalfa does not want a nurse
crop. It does not want to be put
in loose, freshly plowed ground-
The ground should become Set
tied after plowing, and just the
surface made loose before plant
ing. Time after time we liaye
heard farmers report at farmers’
institutes that they plowed their
grouuddeep, harrowed it thor
ouglily, immediately sowed the
alfalfa, aud it was a failure. Deep
plowing and thorough harrowing
are needed, but let the ground
settle before seeding. Alfalf i
should not be pastured for the
first two years.
We have found many farmers
who have been unsuccessful with
alfalfa who have cut it for hay just
as they would clover—after the
field had passed fall bloom, in
most cases this alone is sufficient
to destroy the plants. Alfalfa
shoul 1 be cut in eailv full bloom,
ami it is beltir to make the first
cutting in the spring before two
thirds of the plants come in
bloom —H. M. 0., Kansas.
Thousands of men and women

men with female Weakness have

Growth of the Cotton Mill Industry.
Graphic evidence of the rapid
growth of the cotton mill industry
in the South is furnished by a
comparison of the cotton con-
says the New York
Post. During the year ended
August 31, last, the Northern
mills purchased 2,068,000 bales,
against 2,027,000 in 1891, while
the takings of the Southern miil-t
were 1,597,000, against 604,000 in
1891. This would seem to indi
cate that Northern consumption
remains stationary as compared
with ten years ago, while South
ern consumption in the same pe
riod much more than doubled.
But, great as has been the in -
crease m the South, the growth
in the near future will be even
more rapid. Last yoar 800,000
new spindles were put in opera
tion in the South, aud 1,418,000
spindles are in course of erection.
This means that within a year the
South will have in operation 29
per cent, more spindles than it
now has, and 55 pet cent, more
than it had a year ago. And this
in turn moans—assuming that the
new mills will spin yarns of the
present average number—that in
another year the South will be
consuming approximately as
much cottou as the North.
Constipation means the accum
ulation of wastt matter that should
be discharged daily, and unless
this is doae the foul matter is ab
sorbed and poisons the system.

There is a disease prevailing in this
country most dangerous because so decep
tive. Many sudden deaths are caused by
it—heart disease, pneumonia, heart failure
or apoplexy are often she result of kidney
disease. If kidney trouble Is allowed to ad
vance the kidney-poisoned blood will attack
the vital organs, or the kidneys themselves
break down and waste away cell by cell.
Then the richness of the blood—the albumen
—leaks out snd the sufferer has Bright's
