The Tillman Syrup Process.
Savannah Nowa.
We have said a great deal in
behalf of the Tillman process for
making a pure table syrup for
the reason that from the facts,
that have been furnished us, we
believe that it means much for
South Georgia and Florida. With
this process used generally by
demonstrated in his case,
not pretend to claim perfection,
for this loved one, for according
to the convictions of the unwor
thy writer, perfection ie a height
we* never reach while here in this
sinful flesh.
We only wish to do justice to
his memory; through feelings of
unworthihess he had never con
nected himself with any church,
yet he gave convincing evidence
of the grace of God being shed
abroad in his poor heart which
was glad tidings indeed to the
loved ono he had left behind to
battle on a while longer with tri
als
we are left here in sorrow and
sadness, we can rejoice in the
hope that with him all is well
We feel assured that God was
with him to the end. What a
blessed assurance that there is no
dower that e$in separate us from
the love of God.
Not even the shades of death,
Oan hide us from his view
His mighty arm placed uuderneath,
Will bear us safely through.
We feel well assured that
iffighty arms have borne him safe
ly over the rough billows of time
and has landed his poor weary
spirit on the banks of final deliv
erance.
He leaves a loving father, 8
brothers, and 1 sister; also a de
voted wife and 8 small ohildren.
May God who has promised to
be a husband to the widow, and
a father to the orphan, guide, pro
tect and keep them from the
evils of this world.
His body was laid to rest in
BethleSsm cemetery, Taylor coun
ty, Ga., near the s&crjd dust of
his dear mother, who preceded
him to the grave 17 years, 2
months and 18 days. Farewell
John.
Sleep on, that blessed sleep,
From which none ever wake to weep;
A calm and undisturbed repose
Unbroken by the last of foes.

ers of the sections to which we
have oalled attention there would
no doubt be a very great increase
in the wealth and prosperity of
those Beotions. Recently Judge
Ga.,
of the prooess, haB
had printed for distribution a
large amount of information bear
ing upbn it. This information is
both interesting and valuable,
and should be in the hands of
farmers in the cane growing sec
tions because it would be highly
beneficial and profitable to them.
Heretofore, the trouble has
been in placing the syrup on the
markets as a reliable commercial
product, from the fact that, as
made by the old prooess, it was
sc unstable as to undergo fermen
tation, and utter destruction,
within a short time. To prevent
this there may have been many
and temptations, and while remedies suggested, all of whioh

A Pulaski County Dairy.
Mr. B. W. Durden, a first-class
dairyman of several years experi
ence on North Georgia dairy farms;
and Mr. D. E. Durden, formerly
of North Georgia, but now super
intendent of the Cochran Cotton
Mills, have taken steps to open a
large dairy farm in Hawkinsville
and have secured the Henderson
dairy property for the purpose
Mr. Durden has moved to Hawk
insville and will be the manager

of making investments on a large
scale, using all the modern meth
ods known to the dairy world.

have failed. Finally Judge Till
man oame to the front and point
ed out the way to counteract the
natural tendency to deteriorate
of all syrups made by the old
method. He clearly demonstra
ted that fermentation and de
struction of syrup is due not to
inherited properties, but to impu
rities* These, he held, must be
eliminated. In other words he
took the position that the syrup
.must be thoroughly purified.
What Judge Tillman has prov
en by competent witnesses dem
onstrates the correctness of all he
claims for his syrup process. It
is learned from* reliable sources
that the syrup put up by his pro
cess, though subjected to the se
verest possible test, has remained
sweet and nutritions.
Through his untiring efforts
the problem has been solved, and
the solution will put millions of
dollars in the farmer’s pockets,
as well as encourage an industry
that will grow rapidly into im
mense proportions, and become
by far the strongest inducement
to thousands of the better class of
home seekers from all parts of
the continent to seek South Geor
gia and Florida. For of a cer
tainty, no such profits can be re
alized from farming elsewhere.
It is with satifaction that we
repeat what we have said hereto
fore, for we now have ample evi
dence of its correctness, namely,
that Judge Tillman has done
more for the upbuilding of Geor
gia and Florida than any other
man. His process for keeping
syrup sweet, if he should do noth
ing more, would entitle him to
the consideration and esteem of
the entire people of Georgia and
Florida.
All who are interested in the
making of syrup from sugar cane
should communicate with Judge
Tillman, inclosing a stamp for
information regarding his syrup
making process.
About the Rural Free System.
Washington advices bring the
news that Fourth Assistant Post
master General Bristow’s investi
gation of the oondibion of the ru
ral free delivery service and of
the appropriation available for
the currant fiscal year discloses
the fact that of the total appro-
S nation of $12,621,700 made by
ongre88 for the rural free deliv
ery, all but $2,000,000 will bo re
quired to carry on the servioe on
routes already established. He
has determined that no deficit
shall be incurred during the our-
jent year and consequently the
establishment of new routes will
be limited to such as can be car
ried on to the end of the year
without exceeding the available
$2,000,000. One of the results
will be that orders for full oounty
services that have been issued in
certain cases will be 'revoked. An
other result is that the order pro
viding that no route shall be es
tablished unless at least 100 resi
dences will be served by it will be
strictly lived up to. The $2,000,-
000 will be apportioned among the
states and territories in propor
tion to the number of applicants
for the establishment of rural
free delivery routes that have
been received.

Learn By Observation.
One of the most useful and suc
cessful habits a person oan form
is that of learning something
from everybody with whom he
comes in contact. If you will
measure yourself with everybody
you meet you will find that you
can learn something whioh you
were ignorant o.f before, and
something you probably would
never had known had you n6t
come in contact with them. All
knowledge no matter how trivial
it may be, cannot be ignored.
Too many people have prssed
over little bits of knowledge uu-
heeded. Some attend a lecture
or read a good book and will de
rive no benefit whatever from it;
while others will hear the same
lecture or read the same book
and determine that he will make
more of his opportunitiet. We
should make up our minds that
in the future we will read more,
think more and talk more to
those with whom we are associa
ted with the intention of learn
ing things we do not know.—Ex

Dysentery Cured "Without the Aid of
a Doctor.
“I am just up from a hard
spell of the flux” (dysentery) says
Mr. T. A. Pinner, a well known
merchant of Drummond, Tenn.
“I used one small bottle of Cham
berlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diar
rhoea Remedy and was cured
without having a doctor. I con
sider it is the best cholera medi
cine in the world.” There is no
need of employing a doctor when
this remedy is used, for no doctor
can prescribe a better medicine
for bowel oomplaint in any form
either for children or adults. It
never fails and is pleasant to take.
