Did not succeed very well, did you? It’s just as useless to try to escape from the germs of consumption. You can’t do it. They are about us on every hand and we are con¬ stantly taking them into our lungs. Then why don’t we all have this disease ? Simply because these germs cannot gain a foot¬ hold in a strong throat and lungs. It’s when these are weak that the germs master. The body must be well supplied with fat. The danger comes when the blood is poor and the body is thin. If your cough does not yield, and your throat and lungs feel raw and sore, you should not delay another day. Take Scott’s Emulsion of Cod-Liver Oil with Hypcphos phites at once. It will heal the Inflamed membranes and greatly strengthen them as well. The digestion becomes stronger, the appetite better and the weight increases. The whole body be¬ comes well fortified and the germs of consumption cannot gain a foothold. • It’s this nourishing, sustain ing and strengthening power of ACOTT’S EMULSION that has made it of such value in all wasting and exhausting diseases. *Rd fi.oo, *Tt dniggists. $CQTT & BOWNE, Chtirutn, Ktw York.' t y officers and find them prop 'nlvkffit, !

A p° tmd of these seed W,H P lant one * fiftl1 a ” acre » and proper attention should yield enough to plant a crop. The seed were tested in a list of thirty varieties by the Georgia Expcriment station and abut letin recently issued by Director Redding-shows that the African Xjmbless Cotton produced 70 pounds more per acre than any other variety, and 161 pound* morc P er acre than the average of thirty leading* varieties. The African Limbless Cotton produced 780 pounds of lint per acre, which is nearly four times the average on the farms of the South. This shows what high ° fertilization and thorough cult ure will do with these excellent Seed. The value of the product, counting cotton at a cents and seed at 13 cents a bushel, was over $-15 per acre. The cost of fertilizers used was $4.77 per acre, The Journal does not guarantee results, but the result of the test at the Experiment Station makes it worth a farmer’s while to test these seed when he can get them for nothing.

SU'VPii* Otii So j.s Tlmt Tillers Should T<tk“ to Thwart Trickcry. Question.—H ow are the farmers pro¬ tected from spurious guanos and wnat steps can le taken to have om analyzed aud procure information cou cerniag these goods before we have to pay for same? Answer. —This department was es¬ tablished to protect the interest of the farmers, and to give information on all subjects pertaining to the agricultural interests. Under the present laws which govern the sale of commercial fertili¬ zers few, if any, manufacturers or man¬ ipulators would attempt to sell spurious articles to the farmers of this state. The environments placed upon the sale of fertilizers are adequate and of such character that render it almost an impossibility to pass off shoddy goods upon tlie purchaser. It is true that agents iu their desire to sell often rep resent their goods to run higher than their guarantee, but the farmers are much to blame for their gullibility in taking for granted that the goods are what they are represented by over zeal onsagents. When farmers pay no at teutiou to the guarantees that are printed on the sacks of every brand, it , g thoh . fanlt> if they are deceived as t0 its value. The law requires that each sack shall have the brand printed npon if. also giving the analysis and the guar. an tee of each ingredient that goes to make up the total amount of plant food, Of course strict attention should be given to the minimum guarantee and not the maximum, as the manufactur ers try to give enough of - each ingredi. ent to go above the minimum guaran « n, 0 „m r m, to which „ should pay attention. After the goods are purchased, then the law comes to ihe rescue of both the purchaser and seller The law requires the manufacturer U, registef the name of the goods, tne ut | ule of the manufacturer, the place where manufactured and the guarantee de trnent before th sell or offer foi S ale any of their brands. After ,ho brands are registered, the law requires the manufacturers to give the commis agriculture notices each day 0 f every sack of goods sold or consigned to parties in this state, also to give the names of the parties to whom sold, ami where raid goods are to be delivered, so that every sack comes directly under the eye of the commissioner, and he can send inspectors to find the diffei'cat brands iu all portions of the state. samples are taken by. the inspectors and are sealed by them and sent to the com¬ missioner. They are then numbered aud recorded in this otliee aud sent to the chemist. The state chemist ana¬ lyzes these goods, and they are returned to the commissioner by number. These reports are then recorded, and go to make up the bulletin which is sent to every one from whom a sample was taken and to all who ask for them. Be sides this plan of procuring samples, 1 have issued a circular letter through the newspapers of Georgia stating, that if any person desired a special analysis of his guano, that if he would send me a request, I would send an inspector to get a sample of iho goods and make an analysis of it. ihe law requires that * be commissioner sends in a sample to the state chemist, it must be taken * ewn inspector, andool, from an. broken sacks or packages. As soon as chemist can analyze these goods, ^“° ““ ^ f«.Ar TT r c»'aLJ”(L . 0 n as.rp e7S . 1 be taken of the goods he purchases at the time of the delivery for the party from whom he buys his guanos. This sample shall betaken by both the seller and buyer, delivered to the ordinary, an d he will seal it in their presence and make a record of same. If for any reason tbs purchaser believes that his crop is not benefited bv the use of said fertilizer, he can have the ordinary to send the sam pj e t p the state chemist for analysis, aud if the S° ods do uot come B P t0 tbe guarantee, the purchaser need not pay for them. Thus you see the many pre cautions thrown around the sale of this article of commerce. (1.) Register the name of the manu¬ facturer, where manufactured, name of brand and the amount of plant food said brand contains. (2.) Purchase tags for same, and place them on the sacks. (3.) Notify the commissioner of agri¬ culture of every sale or consignment. Give name aud address of each chaser or consignee. All of this information is required to be given, and is filed and recorded, j Should they fail to do this, the seller only subjects himself to noncollec tion for the goods, but also to prosecu¬ tion for misdemeanor. I propose as commissioner to give op portnnity to the farmers to protect j ; themselves from the dishonest dealer, as well as to protect the interests of the ‘ honest manufacturer who complies with the law.—State Agricultural Depart aicnt.
