The great grain granary in the
west is blighted with drouth this
year. In the years agone the south
looked to the west for her corn anc
meat and plodded along m the old
cotton rut. This has been changed
to a great extent; but many south
ern farmers will be found short on
com and supplies this year. The
hope of a good price for cotton
again this year has misled many
farmers. They have planted cotton
and neglected cereal crops. Now
they see their mistake. The chances
are that corn will be very high,
higher than for years, while no man
knoweth the price of cotton. This
much is certain.
The present cutting off of the com
crop in the west should be a lesson
to our people. It will not do to de
pend on the west for our farm sup
plies. It is the height of folly to do
so. The southern farmer can, if he
will, live independent of the west.
We have too long paid tribute to
others for supplies which could be
raised at home. Such crop failures
as the present are unknown in the
south. Happy and prosperous is
that farmer this year who has made
all his supplies at home. The great
drouth and scarcity of food in the
west will not affect him; but it will
affect, and most seriously, too, the
man who has neglected food crops
to raise cotton. With our corn cribs
and smokehouses filled with home
products, the southern farmer ought
to be, and would be, the most inde
pendent man in the country.^ Great
progress has been made in this di
rection during the past few years,
out there is still much to be done on
this line.

May Bore for Oil in Irwin.
Prospectors have been at work re
cently on Bowen’s Mill creek with
the result that Mr. Bowen has been
offered some liberal propositions by
parties who will undertake on their
own account, and without expense
to Mr. Bowen, to bore for oil. They
do not disclose to Mr. Bowen the
exact location of the land they wish
to test, but their proposition is so
definite and so liberal that it is quite
evident that they believe they have
found oil. At any rate, Mr. Bowen’s
real estate is enhanced in value, and
it is just possible that an oil gusher
near Fitzgerald in the near future
will add great wealth to our already
God-favored sect ion.-Fitzgerald En

Stirred to action by repeated de
nunciations of the South African
prison camps, the British govern
ment will send Mrs. Henry Fawcett
to study and report upon them.
Mrs. Fawcett is perhaps of all
English women best qualified for
such a mission. As wife, secretary,
reader and adviser of the famous
blind postmaster-general in Glad
stone’s cabinet, she gained a knowl
edge of public affaire not second
even to his. Since his death she has
been foremost in promoting the ed
ucation of women. She will be a
witness most acceptable to that sec
tion of British Liberalism which re
mains unshaken by the lust of war
and steadfast to Gladstonian tradi
tions.

Southern Waffles.
The southern breakfast of fried
chicken and waffles is nbt to be in
dulged in frequently bv this genera
tion under penalty of indigestion,
but for once in a summer it is de
licious. Waffles are considered diffi
cult to prepare, yet really they are
as simple as possible. The recipe
which never fails to give perfect re
sults calls for one pint of milk, two
eggs, two teaspoonfuls of baking
powder and butter the size of an egg,
with flour to a thin batter. (These
waffles, with maple sirup, may be
unwholesome, but they are good
enough to tempt any one to gastro
nomic sin.—Harpers Bazar;
The following dispatch from Una-
dilla, in Dooly county, relates the
peculiar circumstances under which
death came,
"Wimberly Thompson, one of Doo
ly county’s best and wealthiest citi
zens, was buried at Snow, Ga., yes
terday afternoon. Rev. Howard
McGehee, of Cordele, who had been
his beloved pastor at different times
for more than forty years, officiated
at the grave.
“A peculiar interest attaches to
Mr. Thompson’s death. He was over
80 years old. His wife died not a
greatrwhile ago. Soon after her
death he went to Unadilla and look
ed over the entire stock of S. Manu
el, an undertaker, for a casket for
himself. Failing to find a suitable
one, he gave Manuel his order for it
and told him to get it, saying he
could not live much longer and
needed it.
"Last Thursday he came tq Una
dilla again to see Manuel about his
coffin, and Mr. Manuel ordered it at
once.
‘Sunday night Mr. Thompson died,
and Monday was buried in the casket
he ordered for himself.”
Playing Tom Tiddler’s Ground.
Make a division across, the play
ground and select one to be Tom
Tiddler.
The rest of the players then ad
vance, one at a time, from one
division to the other, where Tom
Tiddler stands, saying aloud:
“Here we are on Tom Tiddler’s
ground, picking up gold and silver!”
While they stoop, as if picking up
something, Tom Tiddler lias to run
and catch as many as he can, taking
care not to ovferstep the division, as
the others can then catch him.
The first one caught has to be
come Tom Tiddler, ancUthe original
Tom can join the others.
Queer Law.
A Russian lady has been sen
tenced to two months’ imprison
ment because she was a spectator of
a disturbance between the police and
the students. Her offense was de
scribed as “idle curiosity.” In the
old days of Irish coercion it was as
serted that a peaceful citizen was
prosecuted for looking at a police
man with “a humbugging kind of
smile.” Even that was not so bad
as “idle curiosity.”

Feathered Strangers In Parks.
No doubt very few of our readers
know that there are more than 200
different kinds of birds in the parks
in and near New York city, not in
cages, either, but flying about just
as freely as if they were a hundred
miles from any living person. It is
a very pleasant pastime to try to re
member the notes of the different
kinds of wild birds you may hear
singing or chirping in the parks.
The robin and the sparrow are the
most familiar, of course, but there
are many others just as interesting
and quite as tame.
