NEWS FROM THE CENTER.
HOUSTON TOBACCO.
Mr. Editor:
I noticed in your last issue that
you expressed a desire to bear from
the tobacco growers of Houston
county. I will give you my expe
rience, as far as I have gone.
I planted ten acres in tobacco
this year, of the bright leaf varie
ties (the Hector and*the Gooch)
and made perhaps six or seven
thousand pounds. _
I stripped 900 pounds from the
stalks in September, and shipped
one-half to Henderson, N. C., and
the balance to Danville, Ya. The
price ranged from three to eight
een cents per pound, making an
average of eight cents per pound.
The tobacco I shipped was not my
best; I suppose about a second av
erage grade.*
The market for this year’s crop
was not fairly opened, and 1 sold,
parhajis,under some disadvantages.
The balance of my crop I propose
to keep until next spring.
There is jib doubt that we can
raise as good tobacco in this sec
tion of Georgia as is raised in Vir
ginia or North Carolina. This is
the conclusion of Mr. L. M. Barnes,
of the tobacco section of North
Carolina, and who has superintend
ed the culture, and curing of the
crop raised around Powersville.
My tobacco is open and subject
to inspection, and I solicit the ex
amination aud verdict of any ex
perts who may desire to examine it.
But I am satisfied to make the
cultivation of tobacco a complete
success in Georgia it must be man
ufactured at home. If a factory
was established in Macon, or some
other central point, to manufac
ture the leaf tobacco that is now
in the state, and which would en
sure a home market for all that
would be raided in the future,
there would, in my judgment, be
no trouble in having all the tobac
co grown that this factory, and a
dozen others, would need in a very
short time.
The cost of getting the leaf to
bacco to the markets of North Car
olina and Virginia, and disposed
of, is at least three cents a pound,
fully half the cost of production.
The.most of this conld be saved to
the producer, and the last pound of
the manufactured tobacco could he
sold at home, and not one dollar
from the crop necessarily lenve the
state.
We have the soil and the climate
and can make the crop. Will those
who have the capital famish ns a
home market, and give Georgians
an opportunity .of keepinp the to
bacco money at home, and smok
ing and chewing tobacco of their
own production?
Make a moderate estimate of the
amount of money that goes out of
this state annually for smoking and
chewing tobacco, and see if yna do
not think the enterprise will pay
both the producer and the manu
facturer. Respectfully,
W. E. Warren.
Powersville, Ga., Oct 24, ’92.
—Tax Collector Rentz and Mr.
J. O. Watson were in Perry last
Monday collecting taxes. Mr.
Rentz says that not more than.10
per cent of the levy haq been paid.
This is' not strange, however, as
nearly all whose taxes are consid
erable defer payment as long as
possible. Mr. Rentz will be in
Perry again next Monday. His
Becond round of appointments will
be concluded next Saturday, at
Grovania. The third and last
round will be commenced on the
14th of November, at Dennard.

PENNED BJ UXO
•It has been sometime since there
has been any news worth telling
from the Center, as times are so
hard. The farmers have all got
the blues, and we can heat nothing
bnt hard times. I know it is very
distressing, but to worry and fret
won’t help the cause; so the best
thing to do, that I blow of, is to
cheer up and let’s elect Cleveland,
plant less cotton and raise more
hogs and grain, and see if times
won’t get better. We have brought
on the hard times to a great ex
tent, and we are the oues to make
a change for the better.
The negroes in our section say
they will support Cleveland in the
approaching election. It seems
that they are just feeling the op
pression of a republican adminis
tration.
Oar farmers are aboat through
gathering cotton, and will begin
sowing grain as soon as they get
rain enough to wet the land.
A gentleman informs me that as
he rode by George Stripling’s the
other day, he (George) was sitting
on the front steps. He said: “Good
morning, George.” George jump
ed up, popped liis heels together
twice and exclaimed: “It’s a boy!
By gracious, it’s a boy 1” The gen
tleman passed on, thinking that
George must be a little out of his
head, until he got better informa
tion from the next neighbor.
Mr. V. E. Heard has about com
pleted his elegant residence on the
place known as the Barfield place,
now owned by Mr. Heard. This
bnilding is quite an improvement
to our section.
I would like to' know what has
become of the-“Socks,” “Hose,"lit
tle “Hose” and “Half-Hose.” Win
ter is coming now, and I would
like to know where they are.
We should not forget to turn out
and vote, for Cleveland in Novem
ber. We should not neglect this,
as we sometimes do in other elec
tions. Every man who has a nick-
le’s worth of influence should use
it, and help kill Harrison as dead
politically as we did the third par
ty in Houston.
The pea crop in our section is
exceedingly good, and the farmers
are taking great pains to save it.
Mr. George Stripling is preparing
a thresb, to clean them out. We
wish much success, as our farmers
need something of this kind.
The young people of our com
munity don’t seem to know any
thing about hard times. It would
be young.
Madam Rumor says there will
be a marriage in our section be
fore next Santa Clans.

him much, success in his new
home.—Macon Telegraph.

Are You Going to the Fair this Week?
If so, don’t forget to pay a visit
to the big Palace Dry Goods Store
of John Ellis & Co. iu Park’s new
building, Triangular Block. They
have just removed from their old
stand on Cherry street, and in
their elegant new quarters they
are prepared to entertain you very
pleasantly for a long time by
showing one of the handsomest
lines of Dry Goods,, etc., in the
city of Macon.
We’ know whereof we speak, be
cause we have bpen there. A fact
that will please all visitors is this:
The goods shown are wonderfully
cheap. To visit Macon and not
see fhis new store would certainly
be a misfortune to you. #
—Mr. Sam. Weichselbaum, Ma
con, Ga.; would serve the people
of Houston who desire goods in
his line. He proposes to keep
nothing but the best goods, and
will sell right. He means what
he says in his advertisement, which
appears in the Home Journal.
A PROCLAMATION.
GE0B3IA: By W. Northen, Governor
of said State.
Whereas, official information has been
received at this Department that on the
night of the 11th of October inst, an at
tempt was made by some person un
known to bum the store house of M.
MOSSY HILL.
We haven’t neglected the Old
Hill intentionally of late, bnt the Again our joys ne hmhea.
cruel hand of fate has forced us to
do so. For the first time*in teu
years our home has been visited by
chills. This time they came iu full
force, aud we had to take it turn
about to hold each other in bed.
Both pairs of the little “hose” had
’em bad. They had never taken a
dose of medicine before, and every
time we went to give it, I would
have to sip about half of it to show
that if was uot bad. Bnt under the
skillful treatment of Dr. J. 1).
Colemau we. are all O. K. again. In
fact, they all feel so well to-day
that the whole kit and biling—
even to the billygoat and stud colt
—have gone visiting.
The Old Hill has had a strange
experience this fall. It has been
the custom the last several years
for the farmers to visit the towns
every fall and haul out the coons
to pick the cotton. Bnt this fall
the coons didn’t wait to be banled,
in fact they would hardly wait for
the cotton to open good. There is
another startling fact in connection
with the cotton business on the
Old Hill, and that is the fifteen or
twenty bales to the plow that we
have been making, is conspicuous
ly absent this fall. It’s strictly a
half crop, and a mighty short half
at that However, Dave seems to
be happy and contented. He says
that he has picked out two bales
and is putting much trust in God
to get two more, and as none of the
merchants would run him very
heavy, he had to keep all his folks
on the run the year round to keep
from starving, bnt that now what
he has made is his own.
There are to be two stock farms
on the Hill next year, and we will
soon show to the public some as
fine stock raised here as can be
raised anywhere. We have natural
pastures winter and summer, and
stock can be raised as cheaply as
in California. The natural grasses
th8t attracted the first settlers to
Houston couaty, still grow to the
greatest perfection on all the lands
that are considered unfit for culti-
tion. It’s also said that two of the
very best farmers of near Perry
will make their homes on the Old
Hill next year. In fact the Old
Hill is on a boom, for fall chickens
are coming on in droves, and “But
ter Cup,’’ our pretty little Jersey,
has got a calf, and that is not half
that is expected to happen.
Mr. W. G. Edwards and family,
of near Perry, - spent one day last
be a blessing if they could always ^ yery ple ’ aS antly with Mr. and
Mrs. Manning Davis.
Wilson Hemmingway, the crack
shot of the Perry Rifles, was also
on the Old Hill last week, mixing
business and pleasure with his
friends.
Jack Ragan, from very near the
great state of Dooly, and B. F.
Redding, the high sheriff of the
Henderson court, were on the Hill
lost week to witness a big cock
fight.
Mr. J. R. Fudge; the “handsome
an” of the Hill, attended the
Wimberly-Pate marriage, and then
served the balance of the week as
juror.
We came very near being extra
polite lo a lady while attending
Superior court at’ Perry. If Co!
Duncan won’t say anythiag about
it, we will send him a piece of the
next nanny goat that we slay.
—Mr. F. S. Cater has accepted a
position with The Dannenberg Co.,
and will be glad to see his friends
when in Macon, as he says he can
sell them Dry Goods mnch cheap
er than for the past two years.
IN MEMORIAM..
Agaiu tlie blow lias fallen,—
Again our beaits arc crashed,
Again nor souls are burdened.
Ou Cct. 20tb, 1892, the saintly
soul of Frank Hook quietly passed
away. Jost at the midnight hour
the ADgel of Death entered the
door.
There fpll upon the house a sadden gloom,
A shadow on t£ose features fair and thin.
And softly, from that hufehed and darkened room.
Two angels issued, where bnt one went in.
Peacefully as a child rocked to
sleep, with her mother singing of
Beautiful Land on High,” she
entered the phautom barque, gli
ded past all breakers, and dropped
anchor on the Golden Shore. To
one so yonng and happily situated
the years stretched far jff into a
bright future.
Life to her was as a radiant
morn: Aurora’s mystic glow lay
around her, a- glorious noon lay
just beyond, while far away the
evening of life was just a dream.
But across tljttfirightness of her
young life a shadow fell. Long
and patiently sh.e bore her suffer
ings. She was sick about twenty
days, her loved ones lived between
hope and fear, the last ten days
she battled valiantly for life, but,
alas! death came and “softlr wooed'
away her breath.” Sorrow has
trailed her black garments across
her loyed ones' hearts and left a
scar that time will never efface.
Our young friend possessessed
the Christian graces; she was quiet,
unassuming, kind and true. In the
church, Sunday school aud differ-
ent societies to which she belong
ed she bore her part without a
murmur; if she felt that duty call
ed she obeyed glndly.
In the web of life she wove'a
golden filling; she obeyed God’s
will with a ready heart, and hands
that were swift and willing.
We sometimes wonder why God
calls the best first, and then we re
member that “He doeth all things
well.”
Her home was a very happy one,
there was so much to make life at
tractive, a devoted mother and sis
ter, many relatives and friends to
love and contribute to her happi
ness, but above all these she had
felt the stately steppings of Jesus
in her heart.
She did not strive after the sin
ful pleasures of this world, but
longed for a home not made with
hands, but whose builder and ma
ker is God. She said just before
she passed away, “Mama, 1 am go
ing borne,I wish you could go with
me.” How dear to the hearts oE
sorrowing mother and sister is the
thought, she is at home, and holds
out a beckoning hand for them to
follow. May God bless aud com
fort them in this dark hour of Bor
row. The dear one’s labors are
done, she stands on the Heavenly
shore waiting for mama and sister.
We do not understand these
things now,
‘Not now, but in the coming years. •
It may bo in the better land,
We’lTread the meaning of our tears,
And then, sometime, we'U understand.”
Why God took her just in the
flash of young womanhood, just
when she seemed to be so necessa
ry to her loved ones, we do not
know.
There was so much work in
God’s vineyard for her willing
heart and hands to do. Gcd knows
best, and now
■Sleep on, beloved, sleep and take thy rest;
I^ty down thy head upon a Savior's breast;
We'lovo thee well, bnt Jesus,loves thee best,
Friend.
