Station, Va., had no personal
knowledge of the rare curative
properties of Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy. “Last January,”
she says, “my baby took a dread
ful cold and at one time I ftared
she Would have pneumonia, but
one of my neighbors told me how
this remedy had cured her little
boy and I began giviug it to my
baby at once and it soon cured
her. I heartily thank the manu
facturers of OhnmbeVlain’B Cough
Remedy for placing so great a
cure within my reach. I cannot

too much in its favor. I hope all
who read this will try it and be
convinced as I was.” For sale by

nificant personage, a peddler so to
speak, who has little to do with
! the vast commercial, ecunomio
1 world. We are accustomed to
singing peans of praise to individ
uals who establish a factory,
build a plant of any character,
erect mammoth sky-scrapers, and

All of Jihis is very well, for it
shows we are as a people, active,
progressive and interested in what
soever bodes for the general wel
fare of the country. This spirit
has perhaps contributed largely to
the commercial prowess of the
United States.
While we exult over these tre
mendous enterprises, the so-called
smaller matters go unheraled and
unsung. Figures from an abstract
of the twelfth Census Manual, is
sued a few days ago by the depart
ment in Washington, reveal many
interesting facts nob generally
known. In Georgia there were
4,649,144 chiokens in 1900 over
three months old; 108,416 tur
keys; 208,997 geese; 64,895 ducks,
the total valuation being $1,458,-
066 in June 1900. ,The value of
poultry iu 1890 was 12,481,610.
During the year 1899 there were
produced in this state 15,605,880
dozen eggs, valuad at $1,615,588.
As surprising and largo as these
figures are, yet Georgia fell some
what behind Alabama, a smaller
state, in the egg production. Our
sister state produced 18,788,980
dozen eggs, valued at $1,825,918,
during the year referred to.
The figures quoted wore accu
rately gathered by the United
States government, and are there
fore the most reliable obtainable.
They are more apt to be too small
than too large. These statistics
show conclusively that the man
with his basket “coming” to town
is no small factor in the great
commercial life of our common
couptry. He has his place, he
contributes 'his mite, to the vol
ume of financial operations unno
ticed until the surprising figures
of the census man tell us that the
poultry and egg man of the insig
nificant farm has made the land
$4,097,148 richer in a single year 1
How He Kept Cotton Prom Rusting.
Mr. E. J. Hogan had his cotton
to rust year after year until he had
almost despaired of ever finding a
remedy. Last year he distributed
the guano mid way between the old
cotton rows* threw two furrows on
it with a Dixie plow, broke out the
middles with a full shovel and then
planted the cotton seed with a cot
ton planter. Result: Forty-two
bales of obttpn on sixty acres, and
not a rusted stalk in the entire.crop.

Mr. Stevens Speaks a Warning Note.
Atlanta, Feb. 28.—Commission
er O. B. Stevens of the agricultu
ral department believes that he
sees in the recent advance in the
price of cotton an effort being
made by those who can control
the market to induce the planters
of the south to increase their cot
ton acreage, and be warns the far
mers to be on their guard and not
be caught in the trap that he
thinks h||i been set for them, He
feels that a large crop this year
will cause the price to take a
heavy tumble, and that in this
event the cotton raisers would lose
large amounts of money. Ijfe be
lieves that 10 cents cotton to-day
means 6 and 7 cents cotton this
time next year if the planters
raise large crops.
“I would be glad if the papers
would say for me to the farmers
of Georgia,” said Mr. Stevens,
“that the present high price of
cotton is only a scheme to bring
abou't a large crop. If it is dis
covered that a large crop is plant
ed, you will see tho price gradual
ly go down, and by the time the
cotton begins to open the price
will have struck the bottom.
“The Georgia farmers and the
farmers of the south should take
warning and plant even a smaller
crop this year than they did last
year, if they can possibly do so.
It would be much better for them
and for the state and for the
south if they would plant more
grain than ootton.
“Those New Yorkers who con
trol the cotton situation plan and
scheme every year ’in order to de
fraud the southern farmer of his
cotton, and a big loss is ciused
every year to those who confine
themselves strictly to cotton. Ten
cents and over is what cotton is
bringing now, but watch my pre
diction, and if it is learned that h
bigger crop than last year’s has
been planted, you will see the
price begin to fall, and by next
August cotton wili bring only 7 or
8 cents, if that much.
“The time has come, it seems
to me, for tae southern planters
to let cotton alone as much as
possible, and tq live more at
home. They can do. it if they
will. A few men on Wall street
control the price of cotton, and,
as I said, they are scheming now
to pay less next fall than ever, if
they can possibly do so.”
Georgia Oar Works Busy.
The Georgia Oar Works is a
busy plaoe. A large order of flat
cars has been turned out recently
for the Atlantic Coast Line and
from ten to twenty box cars are
being turned out daily for the
Georgia, Florida and Southern
Railroad. The latter cars are be
ing loaded in the city as fast as
turned over to the road and being
sent along along the line of the
Georgia, Florida and Southern
and other southern roads. They
are being loaded principally with
fertilizer. The addition of these
oars daily to the available rolling
stock is helping greatly to relieve
the present scarcity of cars.—Sa
