frequent desire to

convincing proof that the kidneys and blad
der are out of order.
What to Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer’s SwamtJ
Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every
wish n curing rheumatism, pain in the
back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part
of the urinary passage. It corrects inability
to hold water and scalding pain in passing
it, or bad effects following use of liquor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of bejng compelled to go often
during the day. and to get up many times
during the night. The mild and the extra
ordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. It stands the highest for its won
derful cures of the most distressing cases.
If you need a medicine you should have the
best. Sold by druggists in 50c. and$l. sizes.
You may have a sample bottle of this
Wonderful discovery
and a book that tells
more about it, both sent
absolutely free by mail.

Don’t make any mistake, but remember

Extensive preparations have been
made for .the convention of sugar
cane growers at Macon on the 6th,
7th and 8th days of May next.
Hon. James Wilson,!!. S. Secretary
of Agriculture, and other distin
guished men interested in progres
sive agriculture will attend and ad
dress the convention.
The railroads have granted a pas
senger rate of one fare for the round
trip, plus 25 cents.
All the states interested in cane
growing and sugar making will be
liberally represented, the governors
of eight states having appointed five
delegates from each county.
A circular issued by the commit
tee of management contains the
following interesting cane facts:
“In 1767, the first sugar cane
grown within the limits of the Unit
ed States was planted in the vicinity
of New Smyrna, on the Halifax Riv
er, -in Florida, ancl sugar was manu
factured from it.
“In 1806,sugar cane was first plant
ed in Georgia, aud in 1825 seed cane
from this stock'was carried to Louis
iana, and is the base of her best seed
cane to-day.
"In 1791 Morin, a Cuban, made
the first sugar ever manufactured in
Louisiana, and Etienne De Bore in
1794 produced it on a commercial
basiB, the centennial of which event
was celebrated in 1894 with consid
erable eclat.
“In 1829, on Hopeton plantation,
near Brunswick, Gft;, James Hamil
ton Couper, the most advanced ag
riculturist of his day, erected a su
gar mill for grinding his own cane,
of which he was ; planting from 300
to 600 acres annually and converting
it into sugar,when Georgia was the
rival ofLouisiana as a sugar state.
“During the Civil War, 1861-65,
Florida produced large quantities of
sugar, which was in great demand
at that time, owing to the blockaded
condition of Southern ports.
“After the lapse of near a half cen
tury a revival has taken place in this
nearly forgotten crop, as a commer
cial industry, and it is to take ad
vantage of this revival that the
committee have thought it an oppor
tune time for J;he entire canu belt of
the United States, and those inter
ested in it, to assemble and consider
plans and methods for placing the
cane industry again upon a commer
cial basis; not only in the states of
Georgia and Florida, but also in
South Carolina, Alabama, Mississip
pi and Arkansas, that possess soils
and climates equally fitted to enable
them to participate in this revival.”

Picnic and Fish Pry.
At the “Old Lake,” near the
residence of Mr. Davy Avera, a
large and jolly crowd gathered
last Friday and enjoyed their first
picnic of the season, which was
given to the school, under the
skillful management of Prof. J.
E. McDonald. He, Emmett Ave
ra, Buford Rushing and John Ept
ing fished beforehand, and when
dinner was announced it was con
ceivable te all that those plucky
fishermen had oaught graoious
plenty for the crowd present.
Prof. McDonald, Messrs. Jim,
Bill and John Epting made music
that was fit for anyone to listen
at, and showed that they know
how to handle instruments hand
led by them. Part of the crowd
indulged in fishing, while others
enjoyed themselves in different
ways. They all left for their
homes, expressing themselves as
having had the best time lately
spent. M. O. B.
—During last Monday after
noon and evening the people at
Perry, and doudtless throughout
Houston aud all 'this section of
Georgia, were decidedly uneasy
concerning .the weather. At sun
down the thermometer registered
50, only 18 degrees above freezing
point, and the wind blowing from
the northwest. A freeze was fear
ed, and we should be earnestly
thankful that it didn’t come.
Such weather would have cost the
fruit growers many thousands of
dollars in destroyed peaches, and
others a considerable amount in
ruined garden truck.
