Miles Medical Co., Elkhart, Ind ABBOTT, TEXAS As it. lias been some time since I have written to The News I Will give you a sketch of this part of the west. Today is the 9th of May and the wind is from the north and is real cool. It is getting rather late to have cold weather. A frost now would ruin the farmers in this part of the country. Our corn is from knee high to waist high. Cotton is up rracely and some are chopping ami the prospects for a big crop are fine. We have not had but little rain since Christmas. The. cold in the spring killed the most of the oats. This has been the best time to get our land prepar ed for a crop I ever saw since I came to this country. The cot ton was ail killed on the Bth of April and part of the corn. We have had a dry, cool spring, not enough rain to make the grass and weeds grow. But we don’t need much rain like you people do in Chattooga. I have seen a good cotton crop made here with out a drop of rain after it come up. The second year I was here we had cotton planted and on the fourteenth of June we had a big rain and the cotton come >i" in a few days after and we never had another drop of rain until the 13th of September, and we picked a half hale to the acre. Well, Mr. Ragland, I have planted some watermelon seed in my cotton patch; come out this summer and eat watermelons with me and look at this part of the country. Land is selling for SBO to S9O per acre, and the people think it is cheap. The fellow that don’t own land gets along about as well as the land owner. Well, J. V. W„ I see that at your last elect ion t hattmJga coun ty went for Taft. Where are the democrats that were once in old Chattooga. I have voted for 13 years and have never vot ed with the republicans or ne groes and never expect to. 1 noticed a letter in your paper from Mr. Hendrix of Limestone county, Texas. He writes like he is well pleased with Texas. He struck this country in a dry win dy time. All I regret is that I did not come here thirty years ago. I would like to see my old Chat tooga county friends ami talk with them once more, but if I never see them again I can think of them and wish them well. Good luck to the editor. M, W. BRYAN. Only Seven Counties Without Railroads. One more of the railroad-less counties o‘ Georgia has been stricken from the list. The West ern of Georgia railroad has been chartered by the secretary of stab capital $500,000, to connect Aber deen. in Fayette county, with a point on the state line of Alabama and to pass through Heard count which has until now been without a railroad. The only remaining Georgia counties which have no railroads are grouped in the north east corner of the state, and are seven in number, Forsyth, Milton Dawson. Lumpkin. I nion White and Towns counties. A Card. This is to certify that all druggists are authorized to refund your money if Foley’s Honey and Tar fails to cure your cough or cold.

The court of appeals in Geor gia, says a contemporary, does a lot of good perhaps, and the body is composed of learned and experienced lawyers. But owing to some queer rulings made in the recent past this court should be subordinate to the supreme court, or he abolished. Chief of their blunders is their ruling which has permitted beer shops to he established all over Geor gia. Another opinion, handed down recently, is that an officer has no right to search a person for a concealed weapon. If an officer arrests a man for some I other offense and then as a mat- I ter of protection to himself, should examine the prisoner's pockets for a pistol and should find one. the prisoner cannot be prosecuted also for having a con cealed weapon.

AND FRESH SUPPLIES Mail orders Solicit cd PUBLIC LANDS Within the borders of the Uni ted States there are still 754.895.- 296 acres of unappropriated pub lic land, not including the large areas held by the state of Texas. The meaning of these figures can be gleaned by comparison with the size of Illinois, which contains 35,84(1,000 acres. The unappro priated area, according to figures issued by the government, is more than twenty times as large as Illinois. It should be remem bered, however, that mountains ami other regions that are not even surveyed are included, along with 368,021,509 acres in Alaska that probably never will be occu pied. There is so much waste land included in the above esti mate of unappropriated ground that the figures are deceiving. Tiie fact is that good pubic lands are becoming scarce. Only a few years ago the settlers could drive until they found a place that suited them and there make then homes, but that was before the value of such ground was un derstood and before the present attack of “land fever’’ seized the general public.—New York Bost.

Stephenson to her eternal home where she will ever be at rest and free from al) pain and sorrow, and where God will wipe away all tears. She left a husliand and seven children, mother and three broth ers ami three sisters and a host of friends and relatives to mourn her loss, but our loss is her eter nal gain. She was a faithful member of Poplar Springs Baptist church and ever ready to help those that needed help, She was a kind and affection ate wife, ami mother, and loved by all who knew her. But in this our sad breeavement let us all bow in humble submis sion to the will of him who do eth all things well, and may He lead her little children in the paths of rigb.t and prepare their little hearts to meet mama where sad partings comes no more. Sister Stephenson has gone from us for a while in order to win a victory through Christ. “O, death, where is thy sting? O, grave where is thy victory? Thanks be to God who giveth us the victory through our Lord Je sus Christ. We miss her, yes we all miss her sorely; but we shall meet her where sad parting shall be no more.

WILL RENEW FIGHT ON THE FEE SYSTEM Once more will the fight be renewed on the system of fee compensation for solicitor gener eral. in the incoming legislature. A bill is being drawn up by Rep resentative McMichael attacking the present system and placing the solicitor generals on salaries. This question has been up before the legislature several times in recent years, but a change has always been defeated. The ene mies of the present system argue that it is pernicious in that it givsso maney solicitors in the lar ger counties compensation far be yond figures reasonably commen surate with their services. They say that the system has already been discharged as antiquated in many of Georgia’s neighbor states —Marietta Journal. The Cotton Crop. Only 30,053,00 acres have been planted in cotton seed this year to date, according to a report just issued by the National Ginner’s association which is quite a reduc t>on in acreage, and the associa tion repores hta this decrease oc curred largely in the states of Louisiana, Arkansas and Mississ ippi. It is difficult to say how nearly correct these figures will prove to be. In Georgia the sale of fertilizer tags indicates an in creased crop. The crop, is at any rate, back ward. Dry weather in Texas and wet weather elsewhere have re tarded it and recent cool weather was not beneficial. A poor start will, perhaps, make no difference if the season be favorable hereaf ter. At least 90 per cent of the crop has been planted and where the plant has appeared it is said to have a healthful color. As things look now the crop of south Texas will be light, and the crops in the other states will de pend upon the weather condition; The prospect of cheaper cotton is disappearing, but it is hoped that this fact will not result in increas ed acreage and keeping down the price again next season.—Colum bus Ledger.

Knaff, who is in charge of co-operative demon stration work, United States de partment of agriculture, has de signed the ten maxims tluat fol low as the ten commandments of agriculture. They are: 1. (Prepare a deep and thor oughly pulverized seed bed, well drained; break in the fall to the debth of 8, 10 or 12 inches, ac cording to the soil, with imple ments that will not bring the subsoil to the surface. The fore going debtlis should be reached gradually. 2. Use seed of the best varie ty, intelligently selected and carefully stored. 3. In cultivating crops, give Ihe rows, and the plants in the rows, a space suited to the plant, the soil and the climate. 4. Use intensive tillage dur ing the growing period of the crops. 5. Secure a high content of humus in the soil by the use of legumes, Ixarnyarii manure, farm reftfea 1 and commercial fertilizer 6. Carry out a systematic crop rotation, with a winter cover crop on southern farms. 7. Accomplish more work in a day by using more horse-power and better implements. 8. Increase the farm stock to the extent of utilizing all the waste products and idle lands of the farm. 9. Produce all the food re quired for the men and animals on the farm. 10. Keep an account of each farm product, in order to know from which the gain or loss arises. CASTOR IA For Infants and Children.

Surprising, What Kodol Will Do For you, when you need it But the longer you neg lect Indigestion, the more you will suffer before Kodol can restore Good Digestion. And, of course, indigestion if neg lected long enough, brings on seri ous diseases in which Kodol cannot benefit you. Some of these there is no help for at all. There are, in fact, very few ail ments which cannot be traced di rectly to Impure blood. And im pure blood is always due to a dis ordered stomach. Use Kodol and prevent Nervous Dyspepsia. Kodol will effectually assist Na ture to secure a complete restora tion of good- digestion. It does this by at once digesting all food in the stomach and keeping it di gested, until the stomach is rested and can resume its own work. Ko dol removes the cause —and the effect quickly removes itself. When it is recalled that Apo plexy, Heart Disease, Cancer—and even Consumption—are due to poor digestion and poisons thus transmitted to the blood, and throughout the system —the impor tance of maintaining good diges tion is at once realized.
