EDUCATION A FEATURE
Zt Will B» Given Promlnenoe
at the Inter-State Fair.
AN INTERESTING EXHIBIT
JkjrrangemsnU Have Bean Perfected
For Contest* In Ovntory and Com
position Butwesu Boys and Girls.
Frizes Offered by the Educational
Department.
The Educational Department of the
(Southern Inter-Btatw Fair, to be held at
Atlanta this fall, will be one of the most
interesting featumi of the fair.
It has always been difficult to arrange
a basis of competition for school exhibits
that would be practicable, and at tho
lame time prove interesting to visitors
and the public at large. But this diffi
culty was happily adjusted by the ar
rangement under which the Educational
Department was operated at the State
Fair held in Atlanta last year. This
plan, with a few modifications suggested
Dy experience, will be adopted by the
Fair Management this year, and it goes
without saying that the suooess of last
year will oaoso a doubled interest in the
work now under way for the fair this
fall.
Under the plan udopted colleges,
schools and sohool systems, both oounty
and city, may make practical and inter
esting exhibits and compete on an equit
able basis. The plan is an interesting
one and sohool commissioners, superin
tendents and teachers should apply im
mediately to the secretary of the fair
for a copy of the rules and regulations
in order that they may be carefully
studied before the present school term
expires. It is not saying too muoh to
state that the educational department of
last year's fair was one of the most, if
not the most, interesting department of
the fair.
Possibly the most interesting features
of the plan presented for the coining
fair are the premiums offered for decla
mation and composition, the former to
be contested for by the boys and the lat
ter by girls. Under the arrangement
Students are placed on an equal footiug.
That is, boys studying in the grammar
grades of a oounty system oompete
against boys studying -i the same
grades. Boys studying the higher
branches of either oounty or oity sys
tems must oompete with students of
like character. The same rule applies
to the girls who compete for the compo
sition: all will compote on a fair aud
equitable basis. But to thorougly un
derstand the conditions governing the
various contests the published rules
should be carefully read, and interested
parties should apply at once to Secretary
T. H. Martin, 318 Prudential Building,
Atlanta, for a oepy of the official pre
mium list.
Hart ar* some of the prize, offered for
oratorical aud oompoaition contests:
Best declamation by boy. etndying only
in grammar grades, from any county
school eyetem, S3B 00: beet declamation
by boy, studying higher branches, oity or
county, $38.00: best declamation by
boy, train any city or local system, open
to grammar grades only, $28.00.
Best composition by girl studying only
in grammar grades, from any county
school system, papers limited to 300
words and written within one hour’s
time, $23.00; best composition by girl,
studying higher branches, papers lim
ited to 300 words and written within
one hour’s time, opeu to city aud oounty,
$25 00; best composition by girl, from
any local or city school system, papers
limited to 800 words aud written within
one hour's time, $23.00.
To the boys who have a mechanical
turn the fair management offers some
especially handsome premiums as fol
lows:
Be t exhibit of woodwork, made by
boy between the ages of 16 and 30 years,
$3“ 00; beet exhibit of forged work, made
by boy between the ages of 16 aud 20
years, $50.00.
These premiums and the character of
the contest should interest every boy
and girl In the state, and judging by
the success of the plan last year, it is
safe to ear that there will be a number
of spirited ooutests at the fair this fall

WORK OF CULTIVATION
MAY IS THE MONTH NOTORIOUS
FOR THE GROWING OF
GRASS ANI> WEEDS.
FARn WORK MUST BE RAPID
Commlseloner of Agriculture Gives
Some Valuable Pointers to Fann
er* on Handling Crops
Atlanta, Ga., May 1900.
May is notoriously the month in which
the work of cultivating the general crops
logins, grass and weeds, as well as the
crops, will now spring up aud grow, and
farm work must be rapid and frequent
to destroy the former and stimulate the
latter. To this end we would advise
energy aud skill in the cultivation for
the next 30 days if you would niunage
your crop with ease and satisfaction.
In Middle and North Georgia a large
part of the ootton area is yet to be
planted. This was caused by the late
spring and too much rain in the latter
part of March and April. This can be
1 largely remedied by pntting forth our
| best efforts in the field and judicious
I use of wide sweeps aud cultivators in
the cultivation of cotton aud corn. If
your laud has been properly prepared
before planting, you can use these wide
stretching implements to groat advan
tage, the object being to break the crust
and stir the surface to the depth of 1 or
3 inches. In this way you can run over
your crops every 10 or 13 days so that
by July 1 the fields of the energetic and
faithful farmer will show little signs of
the late planting.
Watch the May grass ami smother
ami stifle it at birth or even before it
peeps through the surface of flic earth.
Continue this process until June 1 and
you will be master of the situation. If
you let the May grass get the start on
you, lay down the harrows and culti
vator* at once and take up your sweeps
or shovels; for the May grass must be
conquered. Do as much of y our work
as possible with the horse and plow; for
“the man with the hoe” is a very costly
luxury, frequently doing as much harm
as good in the cotton field with a hoe.
Follow the plow at intervals of six or
seven days, that he may not uncover the
] grass so well covered by the plow.
“Blocking” out of cotton is labor lost.
Use your harrow until cotton is ready,
then cut to a stand at once and lay aside
the hoe as far as possible, as it is too ex
pensive. Cultivate your cotton fre
quently while young that it may be
pushed rapidly beyond the stage of
“Sore Shins” and darning insects. After
1 this period so work your cotton crop as
to keep it growing steadily, but not too
fast.
During the next three mouths we may
expect dry weather and the wise farmer
therefore will do his best to keep the re
served moisture in the soil. To accom
plish this end, we advise flat culture.
High beds increase surface exposure and
thereby increase evaporation. We often
damage plants by throwing or piling too
much dirt around them. Let t.Ee sweeps
then be set fiat and keep them so. An
other means of preserving moisture is
frequent and shallow cultivation of the
surface to prevent the formation of a
crust. This acts as mnlch and keeps the
Soil beneath moist.
But after all that may be said, each
Individual farmer must determine, with
all the lights before him, that which is
wisest and best to do for himself. He
must consult his own surroundings and
proflt as best he may by his past experi
ences and resolve to ai t well his part
whatever others may do.
Oil account of the drouth that was
prevalent during last year, which pre
vented in some sections of Georgia the
production of grain anil forego crops,
anei the extreme cold and wet spring
during this year, that prevented the
sowing of spring oats for feed, we advise
those who could not sow down their
lauds and consequently would have to
purchase hay or other rough foisi for
their stock and cattle, that it is not too
late to prepare their land for corn. A
splendid crop of corn tain be produced
on upland planted as late as May 15,
and bottomland as late as June 15. Us
course these lands should he well pre
pared and manured, to insure a good re
turn for the labor expended. We ad
vise the use of the earlier varieties of
corn for field purposes, suck as “Dent’s
Early White,” or “Dent’s Golden Pro
lific,” “Blount’s Prolific,” or such other
seed of early field corn, as may be best
suited for the various sections of our
state.
However, if you desire green forage
for the months of June, July and Au
gust it will be necessary to plant some
succulent plant that will produce nutri
ment in its green state for three months.
To do this, on small plats of laud and in
order that you can cut it three or four
times, then you must plant such crops
as will succor (that is, put forth new
shoots after being cut.) The best vari
eties are known as the “cattail” millet,
sorghum and Kafir com. These differ
ent forage plants can be raised to a great
advantage both as green food and also
as forage for the winter purposes. The
land should be well broken and sub
soiled and highly manured in order to
procure the best results. The seed should
be sown in 8-foot drills and cultivated
rapidly. The mode of cultivation should
be the same as that of corn, using shal-
low plows In order to give the plant the
benefit of the feed roots that are more
or less near the surface of the earth. To
cut these roots only retards the growth
aud the gathering in of the elements of
plant food which are contained in the
soil by nature and artificial manuring.
Let it be understood that all succulent
plants are very exhaustive to the land,
as they are producers of fat aud muscle
of animal life aud hence require from
the laud elements of plant food to de
velop such nutrition as will produce the
best results iu forming theso qualities of
animal life. It therefore behooves the
farmer to give such au amount of manu
rial qualities and in such quanties as
will produce the highest results. When
this is done nature asserts itself and re
turns to the giver tenfold.
We also advise that German millet
can be sown broadcast or in drills for an
early hay crop, or if preferable you can
sow the “speckled” (or what is com
monly known as the “whippoorwill”) pea
to a great advantage. However, the last
two named plants can only be cut once.
They should be allowod to grow until
the heads of the millet and the pods of
the pea begin to ripen, then cut them
suid cure for hay.
All of these plants will give good re
sults if planted upon good laud, prop
erly manured, in proportion to the fer
tility and preparation of the same. Of
course meager manuring, bad prepara
tion and poor land gives poor results
and dissatisfaction.

CATARRH CAN BE CURED BY
Johnston’s Sarsaparilla
QUART BOTTLES.
‘•DANGER IN TUB EARTH AND AIH| DANGER EVERYWHERE.”
A Wise and Venerable Doctor Talks about Advanced Science.
In a leading hotel, in a great city, a famous and aged physician was convers
ing. Listening to his wise and sententious discourse, were a group of well
dressed men, evidently lawyers, business men and commercial travelers.
My firm belief, Is “ that medical science is certain yet to show that all dis
eases without exception are caused by invisible germs which are living organ
isms. Here Is the germ of that terrible disease diphtheria. Here is the bacillus
of typhoid fever; and here Is the still more dreadful bacillus of tubercle which
causes that most destructive of all diseases, consumption. This of that very
common and supposed incurable disease, catarrh.”
“I wish. Doctor,” said the traveling man, “that you would teU us about
catarrh. I have had It for years, and lam thoroughly discouraged. ”
The Doctor answered. "Catarrh, like diphtheria, consumption, typhoid
fever, and a host of other diseases, is the result of a microbe invading the blood
and attacking specially the mucous membrane. This foul and most disgusting
disease is especially prevalent in the United States and it » rare to meet one
who is not, or has not been troubled more or less with it. Mow often is he or
she obliged to remain at home from pleasant entertainments, deprive themselves
of many intellectual treats, from fear of the disagreeable odor arising from ca
tarrhal affections. In its worst phase, the patient become# loathsome both to
himself and his friends. .
“ I believe,” continued this grebt physician, “that the true wav to heal ca
tarrh ia to medicate the blood. This can be done only by powerful alterative#
which act as blood purifiers."
Betsy A. Marett, of Manistee, Manistee Co., Mich., writes:
Dear Sirs:—For tea years I was a sufferer from general debility and chronic
catarrh. My face was pale as death. I was weak and short of breath. I could
hardly walk, I was so dizxy and bad a ringing in my head all the time. My
hands and feet were always cold. My appetite was very poor. On getting up
in the morning, my head swam so I was often obliged to lie down again. I had
awful pains in the small at my back. 1 had a continual feeling of tiredness.
My muscular power was almost entirely gone, and I couldn’t go half a dozen
steps without stopping to rest, and often that much exercise caused me to have
a pain in my side. It seemed as though the blood had left my veins. The doc
tors said my blood had all turned to water. I had given up all hope of ever get
ting well. I tried the best physicians in the state, but failed to get any relief.
My husband got me a bottle of Johnston's Sarsaparilla. 1 took it, and then 1
bought another. When these had been used, I waa somewhat improved in
health. I continued its use, and felt I was growing stronger; my sleep was re
freshing, and it seemed as if I could feel new blood moving through my veins. I
kept on taking it, and now consider myself a well and rugged woman. 1 work
all tha time, and am bappy. lam positive that the Sarsaparilla saved my life.
The sick headaches I have had since childhood, have disappeared, and my ca
tarrh has almost entirely left me. 1 cannot be too thankful for what Johnston’s
Sarsaparilla has done for me. I recommend all women who have sick head
aches to use your Sarsaparilla.

CATARRH:
Few realize what a deep-aeated, obstinate disease Catarrh is, regarding it as a simple inflammation ol
the no«e and throat, little or no attention is given it. But, however insignificant it may seem at first, it
is serious and far-reaching in its results.
The foul secretions entering the circulation poison the entire system. The stomach, kidneys —in
fact all the organs— feel the effect of this catarrhal poison, and when the lungs are reached its progress
is rapid and destructive, and finally ends in consumption.
It frequently happens that the senses of hearing and smell are in part or entirely lost, the soft bones of
the nose eaten into ana destroyed, causing intense suffering and greatly disfiguring the face. While sprays,
washes and salves may give temporary relief, no permanent benefit can be expected from such treatment.
CATARRH IS A CONSTITUTIONAL OR BLOOD DISEASE,
and far beyond the reach of mere local remedies. Those who rely upon them for a cure lose valuable time, meet with disap
pointment and allow the disease to take firmer hold. Only a real blood remedy can reach this troublesome and dangerous disease.
8. S. S ' ures Catarrh because it first cleanses and builds up the blood, purifies it, makes it rich and healthy, stimulates and
puts new life into the sluggish worn-out organs, and thus relieves the system of all poisonous accumulations.-
Mrs Josephine Polhill. of Due West, S. C., write* “I had Catarrh, which became so deep
seated that I hts entirely deaf in one ear, and all inside of my nose, including part of the Done,
sloughed mi When the disease had gone this far the physician gave me up .is incurable. 1
determined t try J». S S sis a last resort, and began to improve at once. It seemed to get at the
seat of the <! case, and after a few weeks treatment I was entirely cured, and for more than
•even vea.-s have had no sign of the disease."
S. S is made of roots, herbs and barks of wonderful tonical and purifying
properties. It is the only vegetable blood purifier known, and a certain and safe
cure for all blood troubles. Send for our Ixxdc on Blood and Skin Diseases, and at
tli/* same time write our physicians about your case. They will cheerfully give you
any information or advice wanted. We make no charge for this.

NEWSPAPER LAIS.
Once in a while it is well to remind
the public of Newspaper Laws, for
their own protection. For instance,
many people think that if a paper
comes to them without their subscrib
ing it is a free thing. Not so. If a
paper gets your name, sends you its
regular copies, and you take them from
the office, you are bound by a stringent
law to pay for it. Should any person
receive a paper for which he has not
subscibed, unless that paper is distinct
ly marked “sample copy” he is respon
sible for the payment of the same if
taken from the office. In addition, if
the first copy is taken from the office,
he is bound to pay for all the papers
tlre publisher may choose to send until
arrears are paid.
Following are the laws:
1. Subscribers who do not give
positive orders to the contrary are con
sidered as wishing to renew their sub
scription.
2. If subscribersjorder tlie discon
tinuance of their periodical, the pub
lisher may continue to send them until
all arrears are paid.
3. If subscribers neglect or refuse
to take their periodicals from the post
office to which they are directed they
are responsible until they have settled
I heir bill and ordered them discontin
ued,
4. If subscribers move to other
places without informing the publish
ers and the papers are sent to the for
mer address, they are responsible.
5. The courts have decided that re
fusing to take periodicals from the of
fice or removing and leaving them un
called for, is prima facie evidence of
fraud.
6. If subscribers pay in advance
they are hound to give notice at the
end of the time if they do not wish to!
continue taking it, otherwise the pub
lisher is authorized to send it and the
subscriber will be responsible until j
specific notice with payment of all ar
rears is sent to the publisher.—Ex- |
