Potatoes and Onions.
Macon Telegraph.
The production of sweet pota
toes and onions both in-the Uni
ted States and Georgia amounted
to a sum much larger thau one
would suppose who is not familiar
with the statistics. The vegeta
ble industry brought to those en
gaged in it a profit without devot
ing much time and investing a
great deal of money.
In 1899 there were in the Uni
ted States 587,812 acres devoted
to the culture of sweet potatoes.
This amount of ground produced
42,517,412 bushels, valued at $19,-
869,840. Iu the same year the
country planted 47.981 acres iu
onions, yielding 11,790,974 bush
els, worth $6,637,418.
Georgia for 1899 showed 158,004
acres of vegetables, valued at $5-,
785,141. Sweet potatoes had de
voted to its culture 70,620 acres,
producing 5,087,674 bushels, worth
$2,354,390. The festive onion
showed 418 acres, 44,618 bushels,
valued at $44,592. The Irsh po
tato in Georgia required 8,477
acres for its production, yielding
558,129 bushels, valued at $826-,
853.
Alabama planted 50,865 acres
in sweet potatoes in 1899, realized
8,457,886 bushels and $1,687,089.
There were 259 acres in onions,
28,914 bushels, worth $28,848.
Tennessee used 48,561 acres in
sweet potatoes, raising 1,571,571
bushels valued at $883,620. The
onion crop was 1,124 acres, 147,
697 bushels and $106,421.
It is worthy of note that Geor
gia led the entire United States iu
the value of its sweet potato crop.
North Carolina is the nearest
competitor with 68,780 acres, 5,-
781,587 bushels aud $2,119,956.
That state only exceeded us in
the number of bushels produced.
Georgia also led every state in the
acreage devoted to the sweet pota
to. This saleable aud useful crop
brought to Georgia raisers many
dollars they otherwise would not
have gotten from any other vege
table or even staple.
In these so-called small agri
cultural products the farmers
make the most. They are really
surplus crops, merely incidentals
on the farms, These staple vege
tables have no doubt saved many
a farmer from debt /when the
great annual crops have failed or
brought a small price.

The Oconee Enterprise says that
a few days ago a young woman
went to a store 1 ', carrying- three
chickens. She asked what they
were worch, and put them on the
counter. The clerk didn’t know
the chickens’ feet were til’d, and
asked if they would lay there. She
bit her handkerchief and said:
‘No sir; they are roosters.”

Waste Cotton Seed.
Cotton Banters’ Journal.
The south has never stopped to
think how much money is wasted
in planting each cotton crop. Let
us figure it up and see.
Upon a sate estimate not less
than 400,000 tons of cotton seed
are used each spring in planting.
The seed is ,sown lavishly in drills
—not dropped at certain distanc
es, as corn—and after the plants
are up the crop is thinned with a
hoe, more than nine-tenths of the
young plants being out out.'
Here we find that the seed used
in planting a cotton crop would
bring in the market at least $6,-
400,000. As nine-tenths of this
is wasted, wo see here a total
waste of over five and onfc-half
million dollars.
It is time for the cotton grow
ers of the south to call a halt to
this extravagauce. The old sys
tem of cotton seed in the drill in
a remnant of the time when oot-
ton Beed were almost worthless.
Since then their value has so
much enhanced that a change
should be made in the manner of
planting. Instead of sowing the
Baed iu drills, drop them at a dis
tance wanted, and by following
this method not only the labor
of thinning is saved but nearlj
400,000 tons of good cotton seed
is saved for commercial use and
the farmers of the south made
five million dollars richer.
Trade at Home.
The following from an exchange
is just as applicable to Perry as
any other place. Read it and con
sider the truth told:
Who sympathized with you when
your child was sick? Was it your
home merchant, or was it Sears,
Roebuck & Go.? ,\
Who carried you last winter
when you were out of work and had
uo money? Was it Montgomery,
Ward & Go., or was it your homo
merchant?
When .you want -to raise money
for the 1 churches or some needy
person in town do you write to
the far store in Ohioago or do you
go to the home merchant?
How much does Seigel, Cooper
& Co., give towards keeping up
the sidewalks of the town or pay
ing the minister’s salary? When
you were sick how many nights
did Charles A. Stephens & Co.,
sit up with you?
When your child was buried
was it your home merchant who
dropped the tear of sympathy and
uttered the cheering word or was
it Marshall Field & Co.?' Of
course it was your home merchant.
Is it the home merchant that is
most instrumental in maintain
ing your public schools and’takes
a personal and common interess
in the education of your children,
or is it Chicago firms mentioned
above?
I rade with home merchants.
You can get just as low prices
with them as in the far-off city.
Besides, they are here to right
any wrong. *

The barring of business success
to the drinking man is one of the
weightiest causes iu the decline of
drunkenness. Mr. John. Graham
Brooks has pointed out that the
railroad companies are our great
est single influence for temper

million men, for all of whom
known drunkenness means dis
missal, and to a large proportion
of whom saloon' visiting is forbid
