THE 1 COMMONER,

The Commoner has attained within
six months from date of the first issue a
circulation of 100,000 copies, a record

newspaper fields for a national paper de
voted to the discussion of political,
economic, and Bocial problems. To the
columns of the Commoner Mr. Bryan
contributes bis best efforts ;and his views
of political events as they arise from
time to time can not fail to inteiest those
who study public questions. _ >
The Commoner’s regular subcription
price is $1.00 per year. We have arrang
ed with Mr. Bryan whereby we can fur
nish his paper and Home Journal to
gether for onft year for $1.90. The reg- j
ular subscription price of the two pa
pers when suberibed for separately is

Though Ove Mrany Sections of the
State Seasons Were Unfavorable For
Leading Crops, Farmers Have Not
Been Discouraged—Other Remarks.
Surely the Georgia farmers are to
be commended for their indomitable
pluck. Though over' large areas of
our state the seasons were unfavora
ble for the leading crops during last
year, they have gone to work with all
the ‘vlmi of men who are not set back
by one or two failures, but are in the
habit of believing that the way to win
fortune’s smiles is to compel them
by diligent and persistent effort.
In temporal, as well as in spirit
ual affairs, the old maxim is a good
one, which says “Trust God, as though
everything depended upon Him, and
work as If all depended upon your own
efforts."
It is the diligent man who finally
succeeds, while the sluggard always
finds a lion in the way. Fortunately
for Georgia, few of her people are
found among the idlers. Hence our
greatly improved and still improving
methods of agriculture, our new and
thriving manufactories, our rapidly
growing cities, towns and' villages.
From our rural population come not
only the tillers of our fields, who pro
duce the things absolutely needed to
supply our great commercial marts
with all that trade demands and keep
the wheels of our great factories In
motion, but from the country there
flock into our great centers of popula
tion those who supply the infusion of
fresh blood and brains, without which
our cities and towns would soon'decay
and perish from the earth. Prosper
ous farmers make prosperous mer
chants and manufacturers!, who, in
their turn, infuse into the country vim
and enterprise.
The Syrup Industry.
We are glad to see that new inter
est is being manifested in the sirup-
making industry of South Georgia.
Already some of the best table sirup
made in the United States goes forth
from Thomas and adjoining counties;
That,, which has been refined and put
up in cans arid shipped from Thomas-
ville, Cairo, Quitman and othr Geor
gia towns, has been pronounced by
many to have the best flavor of any
Byrup that finds it's way into the mar
kets of the Ignited States.
It is with great pleasure that we
note that the United States govern
ment which last year appropriated
$20,000 to the development of the new
Georgia industry intends to double
that appropriation for the present
year..
The Department of Agriculture has
ever been active in its 1 ef
forts to promote the growth
of the sugar and syrup in
dustry of Georgia, and is pleased to
acknowledge the great help given to
this cause by Captain D. G. Purse,
secretary of the Board of Trade of
Savannah.
Some Thoughts About Georgia’s Ag
ricultural Wealth.
We are satisfied that Georgia’s ag
ricultural wealth is just in the dawn
of its development. Not long ago
in our city a lecture was delivered by
Dr. Conwell, of Philadelphia, who
took for his subject “An Acre of Dia
monds.” He began With a story told
him by a Persian camel driver during
one of his journeys in the Orient,
There was a man, so the story went,
'who became very much discontented
with hi S' farm, so he sold out and
went into a distant country to search
for diamonds. Now the^ purchaser
of- his farm was a very observant
man and one day noticed in a certain
acre of his land a black substance
which contained under their unpre
possessing exterior something which
sparkled in the light with great lus
tre. Taking one of the pieces to an
expert he was informed that he was
the possessor of an exceedingly rich
field Of diamonds. This, said the
•guide, was the beginning of the fa
mous fields of Golconda. The Observ
ant man thus became immensely
•wealthy, while the one who sold out
and went abroad In search of fortune,
perished miserably at last in a for
eign land.
One need not go far to seek the
moral of this story j' for often at our
own homes we have the means of
wealth, if we are diligent and observ-
e”t. not neglecting the opportunities
at our very door,
r The Agricultural College.
f .
T Speaking of Georgia’s agricultural
(development reminds us-of the State’s
.Agricultural College. The legislature
having decided that it shall remain a
while longer, at least, in its present
location, let all Georgians resolve to
assist its able president and profess
ors in their effort to make it a power
for good to the farmers. Many of
the best bulletins on various agri
cultural subjects that some to this
department are from the Agricultural
Colleges conneeted with the Univer
sities of our sister states. If we can
make our single Agricultural College
a success, then it may establish aux
iliary branches in proper locations,in
our state. Agriculture Is a science
and the man who, after growing up
on his father’s farm, and acquiring
practical experience, adds to this a
thorough knowledge of agricultural
chemistry, will understand the needs
of various plants and how to make
the soli supply the food which they
require for healthy and profitable
growth. While every young man has
not the means to attend an agrlcultu-
oollege, those who can, If they im
prove their opportunities, may spread
among their neighbors the knowledge
which they have acquired. ” Every sci
entific farmer may thus become an
apostle of progress and bless his day
and generation. 1

Houston County Fanner Interviewed
Macon Telegraph
Mr. Clayton Sasser is one of the
leading agriculturists in Houston
county. He owns three farms com
prising 1,000 acres. He raises cot
ton, corn, hay, hogs, chickens and
everything else known to farmers in
his section of the state!
Mr, Sasser, in speaking of condi
tions in Houston county, said: “We
are doing splendidly in Houston.
We are making progress. Our peo
ple are working hard and are pros
perous. We can raise almost any
thing in pur county. I think we
have the banner county of the state.
We produce as much or more cotton
than any county in Georgia, to say
nothing of other crops., We are not
dependent upon the outside world
for anything that goes oil our table.
If you will come, to my house I,
promise to give you all the ‘hog and
hominy’ you can eat.”
Discussing the present price of
cotton, Mr. SasBer said: “I do not
think the present price of cotton will
cause our farmers to plant a larger
drop than usual. They are selling
their cotton seed and buying phos
phates with the proceeds; it is more
economical and goes further. S: me
of the farmers held their cotton and
got the benefit of the recent rise in
price, but this only applies to a few.
“You can rest assured the people
of Houston county will come to the
state fair,” remarked Mr. Sasser.
"They are greatly interested and I
hear much about it in my locality.
The state, fair is a great institution,
and will be a lasting benefit to agri
culturists especially. I take the dai
ly Telegraph, and am glad to see it
taking such an interest in the fair.
I would be pleased if. all the coun
ties would make an exhibit, but ‘
cannot say what Houston will do.”
Americans are known as a dyspep
tic people. The extent of this dis
ease may be inferred from the mul
titude of so-called “medicines” of
fered as a remedy. They are often
in tablet form and have no value ex
cept as palliatives of the immediate
effects of dyspepsia, The manj who
used them- may feel better, but is
surely getting worse. Ihey do not
touch the real cause of the disease.
Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discov
ery is a medicine specially prepared
to cure diseases of the stomach and
organs of digestion and nutrition. It
is not made to give temporary relief
but to pffect permanent cure. In 98
cases out of every 100 it cures per
fectly and permanently. i
I has cost Dr. Pierce $25,0.00' to
give away in the last year the copies
of his People ( s Common Sense Med
ical Adviser that were applied for.
This book of 1008 pages is sent free
on receipt of 21 one-cent stamps to
pay expense of mailing only. Ad
