B MOSELEY & SONS, 11 MENLO, - • GEORGIA. ;; | SEMINOLE We continue to have an abun dance of rain. Farmers do not get-to plow more than two days in a week and most the time the ground in too wet. But we hope ere long we will have some pret ty weather. There will still be some fruit if not killed later on, but not as much aa there W'as last year. I thought I put in my letter last week about Linton Weaver dying. He had been an invalid for a long time and could not walk for the last two years. lie died at Charley Toles’, his broth er-in-law’s, in Cherokee county, Ala., but was brought back here for burial. The Rev. Mr. Harris of Lyerly conducted the funeral services. There has been some corn planted here on high lands. A great many of the oats sown last fall were killed by the cold weath er in February. The lands of our community have been great ly damaged by shallow plowing and hard washing rams. There will be a good deal of land that will not be cultivated as it is washed so badly that it will be best to let it rest awhile and then there is not labor enough to cultivate all of the land. There is scarcely any sown down. Land should be sown down every 3rd year at least. Our public school has held up very well. Commissioner S. E< Jones says our school here is above the average. We could still make our school better if all the patrons were interested in the education of their children Alcohol to Children Ask your doctor how often he prescribes an alcoholic stimulant for children. He wdl probably say. \ er), very , rarely. Children do not need Emulating. Ask him how often he prescribes a ton’c for I’cm., J.c ven I prob ably answer, “Very, very fiuqt i. 1* 1 . a -'.

Sold lor nearly sixty as they should be. Two dollars and fifty-two cents to each child is all that parents are interested now'. The state of Georgia is ; more interested in the education of the children than the parents. The state has appropriated that much to each child while the par ents have not as yet done much financially. We hail a very good i private school last summer tor about two months. We could have a school here all the time if people would send, but we would have to have a compulsory law to cause or make pie send to school. There are not more than half of the children of school age that go to school here ami I guess it is generally about that way all over the county in the rural districts. Our school houses on an average cost about two him dred dollars, are not comfortable. They are not attractive and many other deficiencies I could name, i It seems that we are taking more interest in our criminals now than we are in education. We have a good jail to keep them in. cost about eight or ten thousand dol lars. We soon will have a $55,- (XX) court house to convict our childfen in and make them crim inals. So it seems we are more interested in our criminals than we are in our children. It we want more criminals we only havi . to leave off the education of our children and neglect what we i should do for them i Last week. Walter Vanpelt and > wife died the same day. I hey I j were buried at Sardis in Floyd I I county. They left one little I ■ child—a girl some seven or (eight years old. Mr. Vanpelt s THE SUMMERVILLE NETO, THURSDAY, APRIL 1, IW9. parents have taken the girl to raise. Our Sunday school was as good as usual at Walnut Grove Sunday. There will be services at Sardis Baptist church next Saturday and Sunday and dinner on the ground on Satur day. So let all attend with well filled baskets. I will close ere I make my let ter too long. When I get to writing on an interesting sub ject 1 can hardly quit. G. A. RAGLAND.
