There is nothing now to prevent Metter from growing rapidly.

Foy railroad is progressing rapidly. They have extended the road four or live miles from here aud the camps have been moved, so it seems iittle dull since. Stock Raising. keeping Question.— Have read your article ou more stock ou our furms. How can I best improve the breed with least cost? Answer.— Unquestionably the most profitable course for the general farmer to pnrsue in improving the quality of his live stock, is first to bay tirst-olass thoroughbred males. The calves got by a thoroughbred bull of any of the best breeds, out of a mixed average lot of cows, will possess much o' the thor¬ oughbred sires, and the females of these grades again bred to a thoroughbred will give animals equal to the average thoroughbred for all practical purposes except that of procreation. The same is trne of swine, sheep, poultry and all kinds of farm stock- (Jet, then, the purest lineage males and carefully select the best of the female produce for breeders and in a few years yon have ingrafted all the excalleucieg of the thoroughbred stock upon your flocks and herds. If you are not able to invest in a thor¬ oughbred alone, then get one or a half dozen of your neighbors aud together buy the male. Georgia f* far behind some of our sister states in the quality of the live stock. Especially is thi» true as to “bosf cattle.” The Short Horn is one of the best breeds for gen eral farmers. This breed will give you a steer at three years old that will weigh from 1500 to 1300 pouuds, and a cow that will give two to four gallons of milk nnder proper treatment. The very best breeds will not show any marked superiority over our native stock, if left alone to shift for itself in the lands of the average farmer, but the improved breeds do furnish the means by which more pounds of beef or butter, mutton or pork, and of a bet¬ ter quality, than can be prodaoed by a given quantity of food, than from unim¬ proved stock.—State Agricultural De imr truant. Somewhat Mixed. A gentleman from a neighboring town in Mississippi told the following last night: “I walked into a small store the oth¬ er day and found the proprietor lying on the counter just dozing off into a sleep. He roused himself ou my ap¬ proach, and, jumping to the floor, quoted the familiar line: “ ‘A horse! A horse! My kingdom for a horse!’ “ ‘Where did you get that?’ I asked. “ ‘Oh, don’t you know? That’s what Absalom said when his horse ran un¬ der the tree and left him hanging by the hair to a limb. 1 thought every¬ body kuew-wliere that came from.' Memphis Scimitar. Great City For Prayer. A visitor to Moscow soou discovers why it Is called the Holy City. Ev¬ ery 200 or 300 feet there is a cathedral, church, chapel or shrine, and which¬ ever way you look you see people crossing themselves. Until one has seen Moscow the piety of the place Is not easily understood. The outsider cannot imagine Moscow conditions. He cannot imagine church bells ringing all the time and people praying tn the public streets at all hours of day and night. On a Camel. The sensation has been likened to that which would be felt by mounting a stool placed on a springless cart drlv en over a plowed field. 1 found it all that and more. Next to walking bare foot In chains, riding on camel back is, tn the eyes of the Moors, the worst degradation they can put upon their prisoners.—Grey’s “In Moorish Captlv ity.” _ Gettlnw Ad vie*. The girl’s father was rich, and the suitor for her hand was poor, but re¬ markably persistent. ’’Papa,” she said to the old gentle¬ man, “if Frank asks me this evening to marry him what shall I say?’’ “Say whatever you think ts best, ray child.” “How best, papa?
