The contest promises to be lively
and full of fun.
The recent rise in cotton is
thought by many to be a bait set
by Northern cotton manipulators
to “catch suckers,” that is, to in
duce the planting of another b.g j

are going to raise more hog and

Loganville now has a full-fledged
guano factory, and while the ca
pacity is small, it will increase as
the farmers and planters there
abouts realize the necessity of
patronizing home industry. The
factory is owned by M. L. Rock
more and William Cooper, and
gives employment to three men at
present. It is equipped with a
bone mill, mixer, etc., and turns
out an excellent grade of guano.

It is needless to call the read
er’s attention to the handsome ad
vertisement of the Coweta Fertil
izer Co., in this issue. It speaks
for itself. Their brands are win
ning their way into popular favor
in Gwinnett by their superior
merit, and Mr. Sasser aud other
agents handling Coweta goods will
doubtless do a liberal share of the
guauo trade of this section this
season. They are not in the
“trust” and their goods are all
right,
C. W. Cooper, Jr., aud N. S.
Robiusou have consolidate I their
stores and formed a co-partnership
under the name aud style of Coop
er & Robinson. They are both
popular young men and experi
enced merchants, and expect to
keep a fresh and up-to-date slock
of general merchandise. They
will use the storeroom occupied
heretofore by C. W. Cooper, Jr.,
where their friends and the public
generaPy are iuvited to call when
wanting bargains.
A close observer recently re
marked that “Lawrenceville would
have to have five or six first-class
funerals before she ever amounted
to anything.” Without .aking
sides with the gentleman, or going
into an argument on the merits of
his proposition, we will state that
he has located elsewhere, as he did
not care to wait for the funerals.
Even admitting that he is right,
the outlook is not at all discour
aging to a patient country editor.

Mr. Burch, our market man,
wauts a law passed by the City
Council taxing his business, and
all others selling fresh meats. He
says if such a law is passed it will
enable him to keep on hand at all
times fresh meats. But as the
country people sometimes slaugh
ter a beef or a pig and bring it in
to sell, it might prevent them from
peddling it out in town unless they
paid a license, hence there is some
opposition to taxing meat markets.
However, as Lawreuceville is now
a city, she might be justified in
putting on city airs by imposing
a tax ou “any old thing,” even if
it required a Jumbo Huuter to col
lect it.
What Next.
It does seem as though the seedsmen
would stop somewhere, but here comes
a work of art. Think of it, twenty-four

This, in itself, is enough to turn every
woman’s head. Then follow about one
hundred more pages, tilled with hand
some haif-lone illustrations of Flow
ers, Fruits and Vegetables, photo
graphed from nature, all printed on
tine paper and enclosed in an elegant
cover of white and gold. Vick’s Gar
den and Floral Guide also contains full
descriptions and directions for plan
ting Flowers and Vegetables, Plants,
Small Fruits,etc. It explains a new
departure in selling Vegetable Seeds
by weight in place of old style of pack
ets ; also a grand offer giving customers
credit foa full amount of purchase to

JUDGE SPENCE’S WILL POUND.
Leaves All Bis Eitate to Hie Widow,
With Provisions For Its Disposi
tion Should She Re-Mar
ry, and At Her
Death.
In looking through the papers
left by the late Judge J. D. Spence
last Saturday, Anderson H. Spence
came across his last will and tes
tament.
The document was found inside
an old pocketbook that was used
for keeping old papers, and which
was kept inside the safe. It is
written in Judge • Spence’s hand
writing, and bears date of Novem
ber 18, 1894. It iB witnessed by J,
H. McGee, G. T. Ilaney and B. F.
McGee.
Item Ist provides that his body
be interred in a plain manner in a
cement vault, shaped after the
manner of his first wife.
Item 2nd provides that all his
property, real or personal, be dis
posed of to the very best advan
tage forcash, that his solvent debts
be collected and the proceeds aris
ing therefrom be applied to the
payment of all just debts against
him.
Item 3rd in full is as fellows:
“I will and bequeath to rav beloved
wife, Alice Cates Spence, all of my
said estate during her natural life
or widowhood. Should she marry,
than and in that case I will and
direct that my estate be dividod
into three shares, share and share
alike, between Cora L McClelland,
my daughter (wife of J. E. Mc-
Clelland), Clara Oma Spence, my
granddaughter (daughter of my
deceased son, John H. Spence), and
my beloved wife, Alice Cates
Spence.”
The will further provides that
at the death of his wife, whatever
she possesses of his estate be di
vided equally b- tweeu C,ara Oma
Spence and Mrs. Cora McClelland,
but that she is to remain in full
possession and enjoyment of all
the estate during her natural life,
or widowhood.
Item sth constitutes and ap
points (if in life) Anderson H.
Spence as his executor to carry in
to effect the provisions of his will.
At the time of Judge Spence’s
death, a search was made for a
will, and none could be found, the
old pocketbook being overlooked.
At last the will is found, and it
is a singular co-incidence that An
derson 11. Spence was appointed by
Judge Webb to wind up the estate,
aud has been carrying out to the
letter exactly what the will pro
vides for.
The will has been filed with the
Ordinary for probate, and the same
will be passed upon at the next
term of his co rt.

An Old Paper.
Hon. N. L. Hutchins, Jr., has
ut.earthed quite a lot of old news
papers and other anciei t docu
ments in his law office, among ttie
papers left by his grandfather.
Among them is a bound volume
of the “American Farmer,” pub
lished in Baltimore, for the year
1828. It contains much interest
ing and valuable information on
the current topics of that day and
time
One item that attracted especial
attention was this, printed in the
issue of April 11th, 1828:
COTTON SEED WHISKEY.—This
modern discovery, like many others,
was accidental. The gentleman, a Mr.
Gray, of Georgia, in a careless moment,
suffered his cotton seed and corn td be
thrown together; and corn being
scarce, he threw the cotton seed with
the corn into the brewery. The result,
viz: the quantity of whiskey, arrested
his attention. He then mixed half and
half,and Anally sold without any detec
tion in the taste. He then went on to
try all cotton seed, throwing a peck of
meal into each hogshead, to cause fer
mentation. This produced a vigerous
extrication of gas; and a large quanti
ty of oil, bland and of drying quality
weil suited for painting, was produced
and the quantity of whiskey was ex
traordinary from the cotton seed .
Thin Blood
Where the blood loses its
intense red —grows thin and
watery, as in anemia, there is
a constant feeling of exhaus
tion, a lack of energy- vitality
and the spirits depressed.
Scott's Emulsion
of Cod-liver Oil with Hypo
phosphites of Lime and Soda
is peculiarly adapted to correct
this condition. The cod-liver
oil, emulsified to an exquisite
fineness, enters the blood direct
and feeds its every corpuscle,
restoring the natural color and
giving vitality to the whole
system. The hypophosphites
reach the brain and nerve
centres and add their strength
ening and beneficial effect.
If the roses have left your
cheeks, if you are growing
thin and exhausted from over
work, or if age is beginning
to tell, use SCOTT’S Emus
sion.

He Wanted a Pension.
Opie Reed tells a funny story of
a colored man who had conceived
the idea that he could get a pen*
sion from the governmout. He
went to a pension agent to learn
what steps it would he necessary
for him to bring about the desired
results.
“Were'you really in the Jarmy,
Sam ?” asked the agent.
“Yes, salt. Indeed I was, sah.
I was in de army for more’ll a
year, sah.”
“What regiment were you in,
Sam ?”
“I was wid my young master.”
“Oh, then, you were in the Con
federate army, were you ?”
“Yes, sah.”
“Wereyou ever wounded, Sam?"
“Yes, sah, indeed I was. Seedat
scar, salt ? 1 got dat scar in de
army, sah.”
“What was it hit you, Sam ?”
“Waal, sah, it was a skillit, sah.
Indeed it was, sah. A -big iron
skillit, sah.
“Now, see here, Sam, what
chance can you have to get a pen
sion ? In the first place you were
in the Confederate army, and then
the only wound you received any
way was from a skillit. What in
the world has our government got
to do with your|casoj?”
