Cotton farming is probably, as
primitive as any other branch of ag
riculture. The system in the south
is just changing. Capital, science
and brains are revolutionizing the
industry. The shifting of the cotton
belt from the east to the west of the
Mississippi is of no greater impor
tance than the new methods of cid-
ture which are being adopted. New
and superior plants are being devel
oped through selection and inten
sive cultivation. The old, half-farm
ing system is being replaced by
large plantations, systematically or
ganized and conducted, and they
will produce more cotton to the
acre and at less outlay than the one-
horse, unscientific farms of the shift
less, careless negroes.
For a long time the contention
was made by intelligent growers
that an ignorant, shiftless darkey or
white man could raise as much cot
ton to the acre as a skilled, scientific
agriculturalist, but this could hardly
be true, even though it required lit
tle intelligence to raise the plants.
In the light of recent developments
the folly of it is made apparent to
all. The cotton planter with mew
seed, new machinery and new meth
ods of culture, increases the yield in
a way that threatens the one-horse
farmer with ruin.

States will always be able to control

When the war had closed our cotton
ports to England, the Khedive of
Egypt put out immense cotton plan
tations, and between 1861 and 1865
the crop of Egyptian cotton increas
ed over 400 per cent. This sudden
discovery of the country’s possibili
ties has worked injury to our cotton
industry ever since. Not only does
Egypt supply a good deal of the de
mand of the world for cotton, but
we import some 100,000 bales a year
ourselves.
India has taken a similar start in
cotton growing, and it only needs
some opportune moment to stimu
late it to a wonderful development.
A war that would interfere with our
cotton growing, or a sharp decrease
in our cotton acreage so that prices
would advance a few cents" a pound,
would be followed in India or in
Egypt by a doubling cr trebling of
the acreage. The advantage thus
gained would require years to over
come. How low cotton can go and
yet prove profitable is a problem
that the future must decide. With
a new stimulus in our far eastern
trade relations, it may soon be
found that five-cent and even four-
cent cotton, will prove a great boon
to the south, and, incidentally, to
the country.

Wheat in the Old South.
“Before the war between the
states,” said Capt. William McOor
mick, a Fitzgerald pioneer, to a rep
resentative of the Telegraph, “the
flouring mills at Ann Arbor, Mich.,
had the reputation of making the
best flour west of the Alleghanies.
The wheat from which it was made
came from southern Alabama. The
yield of flour to the bushel was not
so great as from wheat grown in
northern sections, but the quality
was superior. After the war I loca
ted in Illinois, and where I lived
there was a large mill that used
wheat grown in Alabama, shipping
it from there by the carload. Every
pound of wheat flour used in Geor
gia ought to be produced from
Georgia wheat.
“I have lived long enough in this
state to learn that everythihg need
ed for the sustenance and comfort
of man can be produced within its
borders. Whenever the people of
Georgia make up their minds to
work on this line the ssate will be
on the broad road to permanent
prosperity. In such a state, with
onr varied resources and unsurpass
ed climate, farmers ought to be
prosperous beyond those of any oth
er section.”—Macon Telegraph.
Cupid breaks his bow at the sight
of a face full of pimples. Hollow
cheeks, sunken eyes and a sallow

Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery is
good for the complexion because it
makes the whole body healthy—be
cause it clears and purifies the blood,
makes the digestion strong and
clears but impurities of all kinds.
By increasing the ability to assimi

fusion of its own ingredients it en
riches the blood and so makes solid,
healthy flesh. It cures diseases of
the lungs, liver, stomach, bowels,
skin and scalp, simply because all
these diseases spring from the same
cause—a disordered digestion and
consequent impure blood.

A Weak Argument.
The plea of the expansionists that
the annexation of the Philippines
will be of vast benefit to our trade
will not bear analysis. If we should
get the entire trade of the 8,000,000
semi-civilized inhabitants of those
islands and every dollar they paid
for our products were net profit, the
sum would not be sufficient to pay
the expenses of the army and navy
which we would. be compelled to
maintain in that quarter to preserve
peace and protect our possessions.
The chances of educating this popu
lation to ways of industry and thrift
and thus increase the value of their
trade are extremely small. We have
a poor foundation to work upon.
The average Philippino is satisfied
with enough fruit, vegetables and
fish to live on and a -piece of cheap
cloth to cover his nakedness. Out of
such a people we cannot make any
money. Our manufacturers and our
farmers will find few customers in
the Philippines, and those will have
little to buy with. Oui’ foreign trade
has increased wonderfully in the last
few years, but the increase has been
made in our sales to the great na
tions.—Atlanta J ournal.
Ants Pay Spiders.
We all know that certain species
of ants employ as slaves smaller in
sects of their own kind. Others keep
insects to milk as we do cows. But
perhaps the Most astonishing dis
covery of all is the latest one, that
there is in Australia a green ant
which, though very clever in the
building of its nest, appears to con
sider it an irksome duty, and so em
ploys another insect to do this work
for it.
A small spider is, therefore, train
ed to act as a servant in all things.
The green ants pay the spiders for
their labors in a coin that they en
joy. It is by giving them to eat a
portion of the innumerable little
eggs that they (the ants) lay. This
is a most agreeable arrangement for
all, man included, as otherwise the
green ants would rival the rabbits in
overrunning Australia.—Ex.
A prominent planter in Bibb coun

endorse nor help them to buy bread
after the reaping time. If every
farm owner in Georgia would take a
similar step the farming interests in
Georgia would be revolutionized in
a single season.—Sparta Ishmaelite.

around their verdant object of wor

The trunk of this tree resembles a
pineapple in shape, is about eight
feet high, black and as hard as iron.
From the top of the cone eight
leaves hang to the ground. These
are about twelve feet long, three
feet wide, very thick and end in
sharp pointy. Stout horns cover the
inner side. The top of the cone is
white, round, and from afar looks
like a small dinner plate turned
down on a larger one.
This larger “plate” contains a clear
viscous liquid, known to possess ex
ceedingly intoxicating and sophorific
properties. Just below it extend six
•green and hairy shoots, about eight
feet long and sharp pointed. Above
these, from between the two“plates,
six white, plume-like tendnls rise
vertically about six feet. They are
in constant motion, shooting and
twisting around with bewildering
rapidity. The faint hissing noise
thereby produced strengthens the il
lusion that these tendrils are snakes
performing a hideous dance.
Wilder and wilder grows the dance
of the natives around the tree; wild
er and wilder sounds the chant. Fi
nally the savages, with a rush, sur
round one of the females, and at the
point of their wicked javenils force
her to mount to the top of the tree.
There she sits terror-stricken. The
mob yells, “Drink! Drink!” In des
peration the unfortunate victim at
last scoops up some of the fatal liq
uid with the hollow of her hands,
drinks it and jumps to her feet,
shouting and gesticulating wildly
among the vicious snaky tendrils.
One of the tendrils coils around
her neck—others wind around her
arms and legs. The women give
vent to horrible shrieks and more
demoniacal laughter. While her
struggles already grow fainter and
fainter, the horizontal hairy shoots
suddenly rise one by one, like great
green snakes, and twine themselves
with relentless force around her. It
is a vivid interpretation of Laocoon’s
fate, without the beauty of that he
ro’s death.
The woman struggles no longer.
Now, almost incredible, the eight
monster leaves raise their tips from
the ground; they rise higher and
higher, until they enclose the victim
as in a case of iron; they press clos
er and closer, until—oh, horror! the
seipent trees store of lethe, mingled
with the blood of the human sacri
fice, oozes through its interstices.
With a yell of mad delight the
savages rush to the tree and lop up
every drop of the horrid fluid. The
god is appeased. After hideous or
gies the participants sink down one
by one in convulsions and delirium
to long insensibility, while the grim
black tree continues to hold its vic
tim in tight embrace.

The Cause of Disease.
WHY A LARGE MAJORITY OF WOMEN ARE
UNHEALTHY.
Carelessness and Indifference to Daily Habits pd Duties are
Undermining the Health of Many Women—How
this may be Overcome.
From the Graphic, Rushville, Ind.
Carelessness and indifference to daily habits
and duties have made many women weak and
unhealthy. A large majority are languid,
peevish, sallow, no appetite, full of aches, and
pains and generally out of sorts. All of these
ailments if not attended to promptly, lead
to serious diseases.
These diseases occur because the blood has
become impure, for no woman is seriously
sick when the blood is pure. No one is bet
ter able to speak of this feet than Miss Hazel
Snider, a charming young woman of Arling
ton, Ind. To-day she has rosy checks, a
sparkle in her eyes, which, with her plnmp
form, all prove that she is in good health.
A year ago Miss Snider did not look this way.
She was very thin, her cheeks were pale,
her eyes sunken and dull. She was troubled
with nervousness and general debility. “I
had been sick some during my life,” she says,
“ but not any more than the average girl, and
was considered strong and healthy.
“I hod prepared to teach school, but be
came so run down that I did not feel like
teaching, and gave up my school before the
term opened. I disliked to do this, but my
mother and physician urged that this was
the proper thing to do, especially if I wanted
to avert a spell of sickness. I began to grow
pale, weak, lost several pounds of flesh, was
stupid, and had no ambition.-
“My appetite began failing. New and
dainty dishes were prepared for me, but these
did not tempt me. Many times I was hungry,
and would try to eat because I knew I was
almost starving, but the food refused to remain
on my stomach.
“My blood was in a bad condition, having
bwune thin and watery. After several
months’ treatment from the family physician
we saw he conld not do me any good.
“We then tried some proprietary medicines.
I think I tried a dozen different kinds, recom
mended for such troubles, but none did me’
any good. I was discouraged and did uot
know what to do.
“One day I read an item in a paper of the
wonderful curative qualities of Dr. Williams’
Pink Pills for Pale People. Shortly after
that a neighbor came in and told me about
herexperie
cured her.
“ I finally tried the medicine, and when
nearly through with the second box noticed
a change for the better in my condition, and
after I had taken eight boxes I was cured,
and have had no occasion to take any kind of
medicine since. I feel that I owe considerable
to Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People,
probably niv life, and I advise any one suffer
ing with troubles similar to mine, to take
these pills.” Miss Hazel Snider.
Subscribed and sworn to before me this
third day of January, 1898.
Smith Williams, Notary PubUe.
For all forms of weakness, a specific is found
in these pills. The blood is vitalized and be
comes pregnant with the elements of life.
The nervous system is reorganized, all irregu
larities are corrected, strength returns and dis
ease disappears. So remarkable have been
the cures performed by these little pills that
wherever yon go yon will find the most im
portant article in every drug store to be Dr.
Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People.
