Genuine Philosophy. Aichlson Globe. Impatience with weakness is a sign of weakness. Superfluous goodness is as su perfluous as anything else. Discipline is necessary in every thing, yet no one ever liked it. How little and dried up the cheese appears to the rat after he is caught in the trap. Yon must have noticed the ease with which a useful man can be come worthless. None of us know we have com mitted a folly until its conse quences begin to hurt us. Don’t groan your loudest when scratched with a pin; you may some day be cut with a knife. To-day you forget things you learned yesterday, and learn things you will forget to-morrow. A genius is an industrious man who does a thing so many ways that he finally strikes a good one. Somehow the things you have praised to others never seem so nice when you come ; to show them. It is a part of a man’s penalty for doing wrong that he should see others profiting by his punish ment. Farm and Garden Notes.

The Sheep Industry,. Gbexnsbobo Hebald-Journal. In buying poultry for breeding get those of a good quality. It does not pay to use poor fowls as breeders. After you have brushed the ud der clean, milk the cow as fast as you can, and milk her clean to the last drop. The best plan is to set a stake by every tree in setting out, and then tie firmly to prevent the wind from shaking. Clean up the fence corners, burn the rubbish aud put the ashes ou tlie-land; they will do' good there; the rubbish may sow the seeds of weeds. Get a few early broods out and take good care of them, and show them at your district or county fair. The pleasure of doing this will pay you. Wire netting makes a splendid fencing for poultry—durable and ornamental. It costs more than lath, but lasts for years and does not require repairs.

It has been demonstrated that one of the most profitable adjuncts of the Georgia farm is sheep hus bandry. Indeed, in some sections of the Sate the raising of sheep for market could be «rged to such a degree, under certain cobditions, as to prove a regular business and with profit attached to it. Through Middle " and South Georgiathe lands, climate, gener al conditions are all such as to favor this branch of husbandry. A pro lific growth, of grasses of all kinds, well watered lands, the freedom of the woods from wild animals suffi cient to do damage, all tend to make sheep husbandry, wool grow ing and dependent industries a profitable business. But there is one great drawback, and it has held this business in check a long time. In various parts of the State there are hun dreds of worthless dogs, half-fed, haif-madj half-e very thing, and these dogs are a menace to sheep husbandry. The fact that any night or day their herds are liable to be attacked by dogs and killed deters farmers from attempting to raise them to any appreciable ex tent. We have a casein point. A gentlemen who understood the management of sheep, concluded to raise them both for market and for wool. He purchased him £ number of head of fine breed ers, He had fine pasture lands and turned them out to graze. The second night one sheep came up missing, and its carcass was found, almost wholly devour ed by dogs, in an edge of the pas ture. Depredation continued, and one day subsequently he went to the pasture to find seventeen fine sheep slaughtered by dogs. He gave up in disgust and has never since made, an; attempt at sheep husbandry. ■ This is only one of Hundreds of such cases, The sheep business in Georgia could be made a prof itable industry; but the dogs have killed it Looking at it in a calm business way, is it not time that there was some law -passed which will give a suitable protection to the sheep? Is it not time that the farmers, while they are bent upon securing legislation looking to their interests, take steps which will demand of their representa tives the passage of such a protec tive measure?

An ulcer also appeared which discharged a cupful of matter a day. I pedition. While the boats in which the party were making their way fur ther into the swamps wera being forced along large trout-would act ually flop into the boat, so filled was the shallow swamp water with them. He enjoyed fishing, alliga tor shooting,. deer hunting, bird hunting, and enjoyed them in a manner wholly surpassing any sim- lar experience of his life. He was conducted by his excel lent guides, Alien and John Ches ser, to where a grand and imposing Indian mound was to be seen and examined. -He slept in the swamp four nights, where only sheer ex haustion from the day’s work kept him from losing sleep altogether on account of the wild chorus of frogs and wild animals, the pestif erous mosquitos, red bugs and ticks. “We came into the center,” said he, “of a large open space called a prairie, though it was anything but a prairie. As far as the eye could reach in every direction was an open space, dotted here and there by what are termed ‘houses’ which mean small hammocks from twen ty feet in diamter to larger propor tions. These 60-called ‘prairies’ are vast to an extent to which I had no conception. ■ “The swamp is about forty miles in length, with a width of about eighteen miles, and I should say at least four-fifths, if not a greater proportion, consist of "‘prairies.’ We took careful notes of timber, of the character of it, of the muck, of the vegetation, and a number of other things, which would be val uable in determining wbat dispo sition should be made of the prop erty.” * The governor is about to ap point an engineer to make the sur vey of the swamp property, under the provisions of the act providing for its sale. Col. James M. Krae- mer will be appointed. He is chief engineer of the Alantic and Gulf Coast Canal and Okifinokee Land Company. “Is it an assured fact,” asked the reporter, “that this swamp property will be drained and re claimed?” “Nothing is assured, that has not already been accomplished. To do this work will require an expendi ture of a large sum of money, but I am free to confess that my am bition is to be one of a number of gentlemen who will do this work for the state of Georgia. To re claim this vast area of swamp and to make it subject to taxation, pro ductive, &c, is a public work which presents to me many attractive features, and indicates a line of action which will be of great bene fit to my state and people, as well as to myself and my associates. “The people of the counties ad joining this swamp,” he continued, “are all poor, and to spend among them possibly several millions of dollars in carrying out this great project would add much .to their comfort and happiness, and would give employment to every man in that section ready and willing to work. I believe the scheme is thoroughly feasible, and if my as sociates concur with me in this view lam most assuredly prepared to risk what I have in the effort to accomplish what seems to be a re sult as patriotic as it may prove remunerative. Necessarily it . will be years before the members of the Suwanee Canal Company can have any returns from their work, but patient effort, accompanied by en ergy and capital, can, 1 am sure make this now valueless swamp fertile and productive. Upon the land thus reclaimed I feel confi dent that crops of the most pro ductive character can be pro duced, and that counties which now appear to be poor will become among the richest in the state.” SecuLxe of Usef allnfonnation and World's Atlas. ; Size, 10xl2}£ inches —2. * occupying a total apace of - | es and contains 566 pages 188 illustrations. pages, 40 maps and THE INSTALLMENT PLAN, TAlRU! stock THE INTERSTATE Building and.
