A COTTON PICKING
MACHINE INVENTED.
An Augusta man Claim* to Have
Solved Problem for the Farmers
Harry E. Fourcher's cotton picker
has been given a test and there is
a general conviction that it will be
a success.
The appliance in its present form
works wonderfully well. It has won
the attention of Augustans and the
general verdict is that. Mr. Fourcher
has won his fortune and fame with it
The inventor, while reticent, is sure
that he has hit it big. The machine
while crude, does the work in a sur
prisingly efficient manner. The test
recently showed that, much, and whet
it is perfected and gotten in good
working order, it is believed that, the
pricing of cotton will be revolution
ized.
It is almost impossible in a news
paper article to give a description
of this new machine. When perfec
ted ft will weigh a pound and a half
and is held in the hand of the oper
ator. Applied to the boll is a button
on the side that, controls the mechan
ism, It grips out the cotton and con
veys it to the sack on the back of the
operator.
The power to operate the picker
in secured from a small motor, car
ried on the back of the operator, in
a holster. Electricity is the power
used and is conveyed from a dynamo
through insulated wires from ten to
fifty feet away; every operator works
independently of the others. The dy
namo will run from ten to twenty of
these pickers, in other words, 20 op
erators or 20 pickers can work at
one time within any point 1 to 50
feet of file dynamo in every direction
There is no question that the pick
er gets the cotton out of the boll in
cleanly condition and gathers no oth
er portion of the plant.
Average estimates is that the pick
er will pick ten times faster than by
hand. Twenty-one men, one man must
: tend by the carriage containing the
motor, In a big cotton field, can with
Hits picker get out the work of two
hundred men. in J do it to better ad
vantage.
The carriage containing the motor
Ih a small compact affair, on wheels,
and a triumph of mechanical genius.

There is no hill or gully which will
throw it out. of level. It is not only
portable, but it Is so small that it
can be easily handled by hand, being
■ only fourteen inches wide it can be
• run between the cotton rows by one
| man easily keeping pace with the
i pickers.
I The little power plant. In this way
becomes most useful about the farm.
’ It. can do a hundred little things such
as running the grindstone, churning,
' etc.
Tills carriage anrd the holster have
> been patented by Mr. Fourcher and
he sets as much store by them as
, being valuable adjuncts on the farm.,
, ranking them as of much Impor
tance as the picker Itself.
Mr. Fourcher has worked on the
picker for three years. The apparat
-1 us he now has is crude but he is
satisfied that the principle is correct
and that it can be perfected so as to
be Invaluable to the cotton planter.
His first step will be to capitalize it
enough to build two pickers for this
season, when it will be thoroughly
perfected and given a trial in the
cotton fields. If it is the success it
is believed, then a company will be
formed for Its extensive manufacture.
It is believed that the machine can
be made for the trade at from SSOO
to s6oo.—Augusta Herald.
There isn't a time during the
year tnai so<.>-?thing can't be pro
dueeed on the farm that can be sold
for cash, says an exchange. The
farmer who bears this in mind and
plans his year's work with the idea
to sell something for cash every
month—every time he goes to town
fn fact—isn’t ever hurt by panics,
tax collectors or sheriffs. Dry goods
merchants or merchants of any
kind, don't stay in business and
work twelve months in the year just
to sell goods for sixty or ninety days
of that time. They plan ahead. They
buy goods for all seasons, and do
business all the time. That's busi
ness, too. The farmer can do busi
ness twelve months in the year if
he wants to. and he ought to want
to.
It is a difficult matter to get a
reputation on the strength of what
you are going to do some day.
As a rule, the man who boasts that
he has never made an enemy does'nt
amount to much.
A sensitive man who is conscious
of his shortcomings will take of
fense without even the hint of an
offer.
Helping the fellow that will not
help himself is not charity; its fool- j
ishnc&s.

THE SUMMERVILLE NEWS, THURSDAY, JULY 15, 1909.
SEMINOLE
Rev. B. F. Guille filled his ap
pointment at Walnut Grove Sunday,
July 11.
We still continue to have rain in
abundance here. The farmers are
greatly behind with their work and
not done planting corn yet. Our
best corn land is lying out. Nearly
all bottom lands are yet unplanted.
Up land corn looks very well where
it has been worked any at all, but
our corn crops will be cut very short
this year. The acreage is short and
then what we have has had but lit
tle work. Cotton looks fairly well
but it has not been worked. We as
farmers and bread winners have long
ago abandoned one chance that
is given us, to make bread by sow
ing wheat. And now the chance of
making corn is nearly taken away.
AU this may be for our our good if
we will heed it. It is done for bur
good. The giver of ail good gifts
knows best what we need. So let
us hereafter be benefitted by what
has past. Cotton has begun to bloom
now, which shows that it is 10 days
or two weeks late. Should we have
a late frost and a pretty fall cotton
will do better than we now think it
can do. So let us hope for the best
and take the warnings given us by
the Almighty creator and profit by
them. Let's return to our old way of
making our bread at home by using
all chances given us. If we sow
wheat we may make our bread, if
we do not. it will rest the land from
cotton all the lime. And hereafter
let us use the other chance given
us to make bread by planting some
good up land in corn and not de
pend solely on low, wet, bottom land
Now let us contiue to plant corn,
an early variety, through July and
sow peas, sorghum seed and any
thing that will save corn next winter.
We can winter our stock on hay
and save what corn we do make to
make another crop with. Our crops
are late and we necessarially will
have to work late. If we quit at
the usual time our late corn will not
make anything.

HARDMAN WANTS STATE
ROAD COMMISSIONER.
Atlanta, Ga., —A bill providing for
the appointment of a state road com
missioner to have general suprevis
ion over all the public roads in the
state, has been introduced by Dr.
Hardman, of Jefferson, after confer
ence with the county officers in
many parts of the state.
He believes the measure, if adopt
ed, will provide for a practical and
coordinated system of road building
and save to the counties many a dol
lar now expended in experiments and
in poor or indifferent work.
The bill is introduced in response
to a general demand for some meas
ure that will provide in a measure
state supervision of road building.
The bill Dr. Hardman has prepar
ed provides that the state road com
missioner shall be a man practically
versed in the science of road con
struction and be able to give expert
advise to county road builders who
may desire it.
The state road commissioner is
to be appointed by the governor and
serve for a term of four years. He
is authorized to appoint one assist
ant, but it is provided that all engin
eers in the pay of the state shall,
when their labors are not required
in their regular location, go to any
part of the state where they are need
ed and assist the county authorities
by laying out public roads, drawing
plans and giving instruction in road
building. They shall receive no ex
tra compensation, except traveling
expenses, and shall be under the di
rection of the state road commission
er while engaged in this work.
A state road fund is to be cre
ated by the payment of all taxes
levied upon the use of automobiles.
The commissioner is to give par
ticular attention to roads running be
tween county sites and public roads
which cross the border line of Geor
gia. The commissioner is to receive
$3,000 a year and his assistant SI,BOO.

Cotton Clothes for Southern Men.
An earnest effort to persuade the
men of the south to wear clothes
made of cotton goods, says the
Montgomery Advertiser, would be a
long step towards lifting the price of
cotton by creating a new demand for
it. Tlie southern organizations which
meet and resolve to secure a high
er price for cotton could adopt a
more practical course for the increase
of the price of cotton by populariz
ing the wearing of clothes made of
cotton manufactured in the southern
states.
Vice-President Sherman's summer
suit of cotton is only a type of oth
ers worn sometimes in the south,
but as a rule our people prefer to
buy the hot woolens, manufactured
in New England. Os all the conven
tions called to improve the price of
cotton there were probably not half
a dozen members who wore cotton
clothes. But enough suits of cotton
weaved clothes have been made and
worn in the south for it to be known
that they can be made quite as at
tractive and much cooler than the
higher priced woolen goods from
the north.
The mills of the south would be
glad to supply a demand. They can
weave the goods; all they need is
purchasers for them after they are
made. When half the men in the
south are dressed in cotton weaved
clothes in southern mills, more will
have been accomplished by that fact
for the raising of the price of cotton
than has been done in all the conven
tions by all the organizations which
have struggled with the question.
Delay in commencing treatment for
a slight irregularity that could have
been cured quickly by Foley's Kid
ney Remedy may result in a serious
kidney disease. Foley s Kidney Rem
edy builds up the worn out tissues
and strengthens these organs. Sold

DROP DENATURED ALCOHOL
Government Officials Find it Imprac
tical for Power Purposes.
Washington, D. C.—A number of ex
perts employed by the United States
Department of Agriculture in connec
tion with experiments with denatur
ed alcohol have been dismissed and
it is generally understood that tne de
partment has concluded that the man
ufacture and use of denatured alco
hol for general purposes is not prac
tical. Several years ago Congress re
duced the tax on denatured alcohol
and it was generally asserted that
within a few years this product would
become generally used as a means
of power on farms and elsewhere. It
was claimed that denatured alcohol
could be made very cheaply from po
tatoes and other products of the
farm, but it is now stated that the
engines built at present are not
equipped in a manner to satisfacto
rily use the denatured alcohol as a
means of developing power.

IT WAS FINE
Three painters were painting the.
inside of a house in the country.
During the day these painters be
gan to crave something to drink.
Accordingly they put their heads
together; the result of their con
ference was that their leader went
to the mistress of the house and
said, “The frames of your oil
paintings are very dingy, ma’am,
we’ll clean them for you, if you’ve
any whiskey.” “How much whis
key will be needed?” asked the
guileless old lady. “About a quart
ma'am, “said the painter. So the
old lady brought the three paint
ers a quart of whiskey, and they
drank it up and cleaned the pic
ture frames with water.
On toward sunset the old lady
coming to inspect the frames, ex
pressed herself as being delighted
with them. “Oh," she said, “they
are fine. And who'd have thought
a quart of whiskey could clean so
many? It was lucky I saved it.

Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness and that ft by constitution
al remedies. Deafness is caused by
an imflamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a rum
bling sound, or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
flamation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condi
tion, hearing will bo destroyed for
ever: nine cases out of ten are
caused by Cata.rh. which is nothing
but an inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
