From time to time for about a year there have appeared in cer tain public prints most sensational and flattering articles descriptive of an alleged new kind of cotton plant, called ‘iimbless” in the ar ticles and credited with 'the most wonderful achievements. It was dawned that the stalks grew to be from 10 to 14 feet high, without limbs, but from the stalks sprang great numbers of bolls which bore the finest cotton staple in the world, long, silky and strong, per fectly white and having a satin like touch. It was further alleged that the new variety was the most prolific in the world, producing four to six bales of lint to the acre with no more than the ordi nary cultivation and fertilization. Last spring it was announced in some of these articles that the Georgia experiment station had secured seed for an experimental patch of four acres. Coupled with all this fulsome laudation of the wonderful limb less cotton was a statement of the prices at which seed could be had ; and therein may the milk in the cocoanut be accounted for. Nat urally the cotton planters would greatly desire seed that would give such wonderful results, so the price was run up until it reached the sum of SI,BOO per bushel 1 La ter, however, the price dropped to S2OO per bushel. It is a fact that the Georgia ex periment station did secure some of the seeds, of unquestioned puri ty, and planted four acres with them. The harvest has now pro gressed far enough for the direc tor to judge of the merits of the “limbless” cotton. In a bulletin just issued from the station, the director makes it plain that those farmers who have been paying fancy prices for the seed uuder the supposition that they were getting something extraordinary, have simply been buncoed. The “limb less,” cotton was put into compe tition at the experimental station with twenty other varieties, all under similar conditions and all highly fertilized and carefully cul tivated, and in the matter of yield, the “limbless” wondei stands tenth! There are at least nine other old and well-known varieties which are more prolific and pro duce a staple in every particular as good as that of the alleged magical variety. The director, furthermore, recognized the so called new variety as an old va riety known in Georgia ten years or more ago as “Welborn’s Pet,” which never amounted to much. So far from this w’onderful cotton producing four to six bales to the acre, as was claimed for it, the director of the experiment station says the person who plants it will be lucky if he gets more than one bale from it, after fertilizing it very highly and giving it the most careful cultivation. Furthermore, it is not even limbless, but ordi narily grows from five to six long branches, beginning at the ground. So far from the seed being worth even S2OO per bushel, Director Redding says that seed which will grow identically the same variety can be had for probably less than $2 per bushel. It is to be hoped that very few Georgia farmers have bitten at the glittering bait. —Savannah News. A tew weeks ago the editor was taken with a very severe cold that caused him to be in a most mis erable condition. It was undoubt edly a bad case of la grippe and recognizing it as dangerous he took immediate steps to bring about a speedy cure. From the advertise ment of Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy and the many good recom mendations included therein, we concluded to make a first trial of the medicine. To say that it was satisfactory in its results, is putting it very mildly, indeed . It acted like magic and the result was a speedy ana permanent cure. We have no hesitancy in recom mending this excellent Cough Remedy to anyone afflicted with a cough or cold in any form.—The Banner of Liberty, Libertytown, Maryland.

Harris and family, of western Texas, are visiting the latter's parents at this place. From the amount of cotton being sold here this season we believe the farmers through this section are mar keting the fleecy staple as fast as it can be gathered. Mr. John Corbin will move to our town at an early date. J. Wes. Freeman or “Little Tmk”as he is better known, is studying physi ology under Dr. 3. L. Hinton, of this place. Mr. John Pharr, of Lilburn, has pur chased part of the land belonging to estate of the late Dr. Freeman and will move to Dacula at an early day, and occupy the Waiter building. We are glad to have such men move to our town. All the property belonging to the estate of A. 8. Freeman, deceased, which was sold on last first Tuesday) was purchased by his son, R. J. Free man, of Clarkston. Mr. Thos. Nash, who lived near White Plains, has mov.ed to our town aud will open up an attractive stock of goods in the Pharr building. W. F.

The last issue of The News was cer tainly a “daisy,” so to speak. We of ten hear Editor McNelley spoken of in Very complimentary style, but not more than he deserves, for he i 8 one of tile nicest gentlemen we ever met, and A 1 newspaper man. Mrs. J. M. Fowler is, we are sorry to note in feeble health. We are certainly glad to note that the farmers are becoming more enthu siastic over their work, for the day and time has come when the people, and the farmers especially, can’t afford to have their smoke houses and corn cribs in the West, and their banking inter ests in the North. This part of the country will certainly produce corn« wheat, hay and a great many minor crops. Horses, cattle aud swine rais ing can certainly be carried on with success in tii# sunny southland of ours, and if the price of cotton is low, all “make ups” of cotton are corre spondingly low, and at the same time this product can be raised as an “ex tra.” There certainly is no reason why farming in the south should not be a grand success today. “ 'possum corner,” Special to The News. We are very glad to see Mr. Robert Johnson up again, after a very serious spell of fever. Mrs, Lou Jones and Mrs. Eliie Tho mas, of Norcross, spent this week in ’Possum Corner.

It is found in that impure blood which is contin ually feeding the nerve® upon refuse instead of the elements of strength and vigor. In such condition opiate and nerve compounds 6imply deaden and do not cure. Hood’s Sarsaparilla feeds the nerves pure, rich, red blood; gives natural sleep, perfect digestion, is the true remedy for all nervous trouble*.
