THE COMMONER,
(Mr. Bryan’s Paper.)
The Oommoner has attained within
six months from date of the first issue a
circulation of 100,000 copies, a record
probably never equaled in the history of
American periodical literature. The
unparalleled growth of this paper de
monstrates that there is room in the
newspaper fields for a national paper de
voted to the discussion of political,
economic, and social problems. To the
columns of the Commoner Mr. Bryan
contributes his best efforts;aud his views
of political events as they arise from
time to time can not fail to interest those
who study public questions.
The Commoner’s regular subeription
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 one fear for $1.90. The reg
ular subscription price of the two pa
pers when suboribed for separately is
$2.50.

The Small Fruits in Georgia.
Macon Telegraph.
Tlie small fruits in Georgia are
rarely considered in connection
with the big crops of peaches, ap
plies, cantaloupes and watermel
ons. It is perhaps well nigh im
possible to ascertain the complete
production of black-berries, dew
berries, gooseberries, raspberries,
strawberries and similar fruits,
for the reason that hundreds of
quarts are raised by private fami
lies and nevpr marketed, while no
account is kppfc of large quantities
of these fruits handled by various
storekeepers. Nevertheless, fig
ures furnished by the last census
report will serve to give us a more
intelligent idea of the quantity
produced of these little fruits.
The total value of small fruits
in Georgia in 1889 was $90,785,
divided as follows: Blackberries
and dewberries, 148 aores and 144-
060 quarts. Currents, five aores,
6,740 quarts; gooseberries, two
acres, 1,^00 quarts; raspberries,
forty-three aeies, 41,750 quarts;
strawberries, 1,428 acres, 1,885,-
728 quarts; unclassified small
fruits, eighteen aores, 17,750
quarts.
The total value of small fruits
in Alabama in 1899 was $54,097.
Blackberries and dewberries, 104
acres, 98,500 quarts; ourrants,
two aores, 2,060 quarts; gooseber
ries, two acres, 1,899quarts; rasp
berries, thirteen acres, 14,890
quarts; strawberries, 607 acres,
804,480 quarts; uuolassified small
fruits, thirty-three aores, 82,850
quarts. The value of this class of
fruit in Florida was $189,867;
Keutuokv, $485,462; Louisiana,
$172,808; Maryland, $1,181,054;
North Carolina, $599,968; South
Carolina, $59,486; Tennessee,
$598,092; Texas, $804,680; Vir
ginia, $765,097.
The leading strawberry states
were Maryland with 18,980 acres,
24,085,640 quarts; Michigan 10,-
887acres, 18,884,840quarts; Ohio,
9,878 acres, 17,916,080 quarts;
New York, 7,811 acres, 18,849,-
860 quarts; Tennessee 11,648
aores, 18,688,840 quarts; New Jer
sey, 8,746 acres, 18,274,120 quarts;
Illinois, 7,118 aores, 18,151,880
quarts; Missouri, 7,498aores, 18-,
018,460 quarts.
It is diffioulfc to understand why
it is that the northern and wes
tern states have so overwhelming
a lead over the southern states in
the production of strawberries.
This fruit will flourish equally as
well in the south as the north
and west. This fact, however,
should be borne in mind, the peo
ple of the sections named are
more given to truck farming or
gardening, and the strawbersy is
a typical truck product. There is
also a wider demand for this Ger
ry in the immense cities of the
north and west than obtains in
our southern states. Notwith
standing these oauses, the south
ern states ought to make a better
showing with all the smaller frnits
than the census reports gives
them. Fruit culture really be-
lougs below the Mason and Dixon
line by right of both climate and
soil. We shall never see this sec
tion lead in fruits so loDg as our
agriculturists confine almost their
sole efforts to the production of
one staple crop.

•Cotton planters in that part of
the Mississippi valley subject to
overflow are recalling that in 1897
a great and disastrous flood oc
curred, when conditions were
pretty muefi the same as they are
now. The overflow of that year,
however, did not come until the
first of April. Some of the Texas
newspapers are urging the plant
ers of that state to put in extra
acreages of cotton, on the assump
tion that the crop along the lower
Mississippi will be much below
the average.
A Prominent Minister Recommends
Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and.
Diarrhoea Remedy,
Rev Francis J. Davidson, pas
tor of the St. Matthew Baptist
church and president of the Third
District Baptist Association, 2731
Second St. New Orleans, writes as
follows: “I have used Chamber
lain’s Colic, Cholera and Diar
rhoea Remedy for cramps and
pains in the stomach and found
it Hxsellent. It is in fact the
best cramp and colio remedy I
have ever used. Also several of
my parishioners have used it with
equally satisfactory results.” For
sale by all druggists.
Mora Products from the Pine.
Valdosta Times.
Iu last Tuesday’s issue of The
Times some mention was made of
the new prooess by which the old
pine stumps ate made to give up
the valuable products that are in
them and whioh have heretofore
been allowed to go to waste.
The development of the industry
whioh will follow bids fair to add
many millions of dollars to, the
revenue which the pines have giv
en to the South. But the prooess
of.using the stumps and squeez
ing valuable chemicals from them
is not the only new process that
has been devised for saving those
parts of the pine which have gone
to waste in the past.
A paper company has b een or
ganized in Texas for the purpose
of making commercial paper from
the saw dust from the lumber
mills. The process is known.as
the “soda” process, which is the
only one that can be used upon
resinous woods. If it should be
proved that the shavings and saw
dust of the huudreds of short-leaf
pine saw mills can be turned into
a fair quality of commercial pulp,
it is a.self-evident fact that a new
and immensely profitable indus
try can be established in the
South; an industry which needs
oomparitively few imported skilled
laborers, but whioh will give work
to a large body,of local workmen.
But the paper industry for con
verting saw dust and shavings
into paper is not the only new in
dustry of the kind. In New York
there is a factory that mukes the
needles of the long leaf southern
pine into pine fiber that sells at a
good price, and the company can
not supply the deraaud. There
is room in the south for a gereat
number of suoh factories if only
they were established. The New
York factory must of necessity
have all its raw material shipped
hundreds of miles, while here in
Georgia or at any of the Gulf
states it could be had at a very
small cost as to freight or for the
gathering of it, This fiber excels
in lightness and oleanliuess any
fiber offered aud if factories were
established and mattresses made,
it might be possible that the
country hotels would furnish their
patrons something better to sleep
on,
Of course, the most important
of these new industries will be
the factories for extracting the
various products from the pine
stumps, because that has passed
the experimental stage. At no
distant day many of these new
enterprises will probably springv
up iu the pine belt, adding thous
ands of dollars to the great vol
ume of wealth which the pine has
already contributed to this sec
tion.
Secretary of War Elihu Ro.ot is
to be the acting President of the
United States during the several
weeks that President ( Roosevelt
will be absent on his trip to the
Yellowstone Park. There is no
Vice President, and as Secretary
Hay will be absent from Washing
ton at the time, the succession
descends to the Secretary of War,
who will discharge the executive
functions. Mr. Poofc is one of the
President’s most trusted advisers,
and - his official acts. and papers
have shown him to be a man of
large calibre and admirable tem
perament. The executive business,
therefore, will be in good hands.
A Thoughtful Man.
M. M. Austin of Winchester,
Ind. knew what to do in the hour
of need. His wife had such an
unusual case of stomach and liver
trouble, physicians could not help
her. He thought of and tried Dr.
King’s New Life Pills and she
got relief at once and was finally
cured. Only 25c, at Holtzolaw’s
Drug Store.
A story about a man who died
in Columbus, Ohio, the other day,
is going the rounds. He had
worked ail his life as a railroad
section hand at $1.25 a day. ££e
brought up^a family of seven
children, started his four sons in
business, an£ left an estate worth
$40,000. And yet some persons
envy the bank president!
