Truth and Quality appeal to the Well-Informed in every walk of life and are e.-ential to permanent Bucreas and creditable standing. Ador ingly, it is not claimed that Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is the only remedy of known value, but one of many reasons why it is the best of personal and family laxatives is the fact that it cleanses, sweetens and relieves the internal organs on which it acts without any debilitating after effects and without having to increase the quantity from time to time. it acts pleasantly and naturally and truly as a laxative, and its component parts are known to and approved by physicians, as it is free from all objection able substances. To get its beneficial effects always purchase the genuine manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale by all leading drug gists. Plant Wood’s Seeds For The Garden 6 Farm.

Editor News: I have been re 'quested by several friends in Chattooga county to write them . something about South Georgia. • But before entering the subject I wish to say that I would not I advise any one that has a home iiu Chattooga to sell without first I looking.. I have lived in Chattooga 15 ■years and am still a citizen of | that county ami I believe it to I be one of the best in the state But there are citizens of North Ga that have no liomeff that they can call their own. Land is so high | in that section that they have but little hope of ever owning a good home. It is this class that I would advise to look at South Ga with its thousands of acres of unimproved lands, enough for each tenant in North Georgia to have a good home and most of these lands are cheap. In some sections the price is advancing. I caused by the rush from other sections. 1 have visited several sections but will only mention a few, as it would make my letter too lengthy to go into details. I was as far south as Ashburn, Tifton, and Brookfield and these places are in different counties and all fine sections. But land land is not so very cheap in these sections. Unimproved land $lO. to sl2 per acre. The cheapest land I have seen is in Schley Co. This land is 125 miles southwest of Milledgeville. These lands are not as rich as the valleys of Chattooga county but lies well, clear of rock, sandy soil, clay foundation, fine limber (mostly pine) easy cultivated and very productive, worth from three to five dollars, improved five Io ten dollars. The water in this sec tion is fine (freestone) climate mild, and said to be as health ful as any section in the state. This land can be bought on easy terms. Should you become in terested and desire further in formation you can get same by writ ting S. J. Bless, Tazwell, Ga. He is a reliable man and is inter ested in getting the county set settled with good white citizens Should any one desire to visit that section they should take the Central of Ga. to Oglethorpe and then change to the A.

The East Mississippi Times, Starkville, Miss., furnishes the following excellent illustration of the advantage of advertising. The other day a local merchant happened to see a farmer receiv ing some goods at the depot and noticed that they came from a Chi cago mail order house. He no ticed also that the goods were right in his line t mi the same he had carried iu his store for years. He immediately approached the farmer aud said: “1 could have sold you every article you have there for less money than you pait the Chicago house and save your freight besides.” "Then why didn't you say so?” answered the farmer. ”1 have t a ken the local paper for years and have never seen a line about you selling these goods. This mail or der house sent advertising mat ter to me asking for my trade ami they got it. If you have any bargains why didn’t you have them put in the paper so wo can see what they are?” That ■ tended the argument and the mer- I chant went to corral other mer chants who never advertise and explain to them that the mail order house was ruling their bus iness.

State Income $5,570,295 Comptroller General William A. Wright has completed his re port for the year 1908, showing that the income of the state for that year was $5,388,273.16. The amount received in 1908 does not show the total resources of the state for that year for to it is added the sum of $820,740.- 17, which was brought over from 1907 and which runs the total amount of funds at the disposal of the state up to $6,209,013.13. The total disbursements of the state for 1908 were $5,570,295.51, leaving a balance of $638,717.82. The sources from which the state derived its largest funds foi 1908 were as follows: General taxes, $2,863,573.74, hire of con victs, $380,709.44; near-beer tax, $19,100; street railways, $65,968. 33; locker club tax, $14,850; li quor tax, due in 1907 and collect ed in 1908, $14,788.03. The report of the comptroller general shows that the legislative pay roll for 1908 was the largest in the history of the state amounting to $104,932.22. The report, also shows that the sum of $405,000 has been paid over for the maintenance of the state sanitarium.

It is the thin edge of the wedge; the thick end is food. But what is the use of food when you hate it and can’t digest it? Scott’s Emulsion of Cod Liver Oil is the food that makes you stomach.

F. Slater, of the [ first district, this summer, says - an Atlanta special. Mr. Slater i was here several days ago, and stated that he will soon prepare ■ the measure. i It will probably provide sev i enty five day sessions of the i body, to be held either in the ’ fall or spring of the year. The - late fall is considered preferable ' by a great many as it would remove financial inconveniences. . Taxes are collected at that time . and the state’s fiscal year begins on January 1. With the legisla- ■ ture meeting six months before taxes begin coming in and in ■ the midst of the fiscal year some confusion was caused. Endless confusion is possible because each appropriation bill ■ disposes of the state’s revenues two and half years in advance. Another difficulty that would probably be overcome were the sessions changed, is that aecom i panying the election of the Uni- ■ ted States senators. At present ; they have to be appointed for • three months, as the general as sembly does not meet until three J months after each term expires. ■» " 1 ./ , Many Women Praise this Remedy.

No Land So Rich That Cannot Make It Better d| You use fertilizers for the profit you get out of them—and the M better the land the more profitably a good fertilizer can be used on it.
