Harvesting Machines. Special attention given to ZE=>a,I:cLtIn.gr, Thomasville Times-Enterprise. 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. A Woman’s Mission to South Africa. 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 terprise.

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. The \world will eagerly wait to hear precisely what those conditions are under which the death-rate among children imprisoned for no offense save that their fathers fight for liberty; stood in June at 160 per thousand and at one time reach ed 250 per thousand. Bought His Coffin and Died. 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.” THE HOME GOLD CUKE.

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.

The robin and the sparrow are the most familiar, of course, but there are many others just as interesting and quite as tame.
