Joe Turner who has been at the sanitarium in Rome, is supposed to have consumption. About a year ago he had pneumonia and has never re covered. Woody Chambers has been sick about a week with bilious or malarial fever. The Elberta peach crop will soon be over for this year. They are fauty and sorry, caused by so much rain. They are rotting and falling off the trees very fast. But very few of the Elbertas are fit to ship. We can trim the rotten part off and can some of them and save them is about all we can do with them this year. Farmers worked last week in a hurry and most everybody put in six days and was ready to rest on the seventh. Some few are stil) planting corn and there will be a good many peas sowed yet. If we had sorghum seed we could sow on all through July and make good feed if the seasons continue. But should we have a drouth now nothing we are sowing or planting would do much and our crop could be cut very short by a dry spell. I notice one good thing in July government report on the av erage of corn it is larger by 7,218,- 000 acres than the estimate last year. And there is still old wheat left over from last year's crop to the amount of 15.062,00 bushels. With all this old wheat on hand and the new crop now in I think flour will soon be down to the old price again. I hear from good authority that R. J. Day, this side of Trion, is selling good flour at. $2.30 per hundred. Now it looks to me that if one merchant could sell at that price all could. If they do not come to it it will not be long until we will be done work and we will drive up and see Mr. Day and make it dark for some who are selling flour to us from $2.85 to $2.95 per hundred, and they claim to sell nearly at cost. Well, it may be that Mr. Day buys and sells so much that he can buy cheaper than our merchants, and if he does he can af ford to sell cheap. So let that be as i may, we do not want to pass Lyerly or leave L. W. Millican or J. L. Jones behind. We want to patronize our own merchants but at the same time we want to do the very best we can for ourselves and families. It stands us as farmers to use all the economy possible to live. All we ask is an equal chance and we will make our living and support our merchant and all others who do not farm. But we can not do it if we are compell ed to pay unjust prices for what we have to buy.. Married by the writer on July 12, Will Covington and Minnie Starr, colored. Robt.

So at last I thought of cutting four holes’in the log, about where the bear's feet must be. and 1 got his paws through slick. Then I tied a rope around the log, and made him walk with it into the camp.

Ga THE SUMMERVILLE NEWS, THURSDAY, JULY 22, 1909. FARMERS SAVE $1 50 PER BARREL ON FLOUR. According to President J. B. Lee, of the Georgia Farmers’ Union, his organization has completed arrange ments whereby it can ship and is al ready shipping a carload of flour into the state and a half carload into Ala bama daily to be distributed to its members at $1.50 per barrel less than the market price. This has been accomplished by spe cial arrangements with milling inter ests of the Northwest. The grain is purchased directly from the farmer by the union, sent to the mill, and from there distributed to the South ern consumers. In this way the mid dle man, Mr. Lee says, is entirely eliminated. Mr. Lee is enthusiastic over the result of his effort to secure cheaper flour for union farmers and expects at an early date, to increase his ship ments. All the flour handled, he says, is whole wheat flour of the best quality, and retails in the mar ket at $7,25 per barrel. He says the grain growers are now getting 13 cents a bushel more for their pro duct than when the arrangement was first made. NEARLY 5,000 CONVICTS AT WORK ON THE ROADS. Atlanta, Ga. —The report of the prison commission now in the hands of the members of the General Assembly shows that there were in the custody of the state on July 1, 4,982 convicts, of which 2.424 are misdemeanor and 2,558 are felonies, but of this last there should be deducted 259 con fined at the state farm at Milledge ville, 191 being males and 68 fe males. From the number of misde meanors. there should be deducted 20 at the state farm. Deducting these 279 from the to tal 4,892 felony and misdemeanor convicts leave the number of 4,613 convicts now being worked on the roads of the state. Os the felonies there are 755 for life, five for forty years, six for thir ty, seven for 25, 215 for twenty years, 141 for fifteen years, 245 for ten years, 129 for seven years and 299 for five years. Since this report was compiled there have been several pardons granted by Gov. Smith the last twen ty five days of his term, and a few additions that may have come from the courts since then. A Good Definition. In one of the New York schools several of the children in one class failed on the definition of the word bachelor. The teacher to impress the meaning of the word on the minds of tlie pupils, told the class to look up the word that night and come pre pared with a good definition the next day. When the question was taken up at the next session the first little girl who was asked to define the word answered with a confident and smiling air, “a bachelor is a very happy man.” The teacher grew interested. “Are you sure that is correct?” she ask ed the little one. "Oh, yes,” was the prompt reply. "Father told me so."

"Section 2. It shall be the duty of all principals of public or common schools in the state and of all other schools incorporated under the state laws, at the end of the term of such school to make a written report to the county or township superintend ent of schools, in the county or town where such school in located, show ing the ages of all children between the ages of 8 and 14 years who have attended such school during the school year just closed and the pe riod of time for which such child has attended.

They are talking about fifteen-cent cotton on ti e floor of the Savannah cotton exchange. Predictions are free ly made there that before Decmeber 15 cents a pound will be paid for the staple. A farmer who will spend an hour or more talking to the cot ton men of Savannah will go home convinced that he is going to get enough for his crop this year to pay off all his back debts and reduce the size of the mortgage bn his farm. With the Government forecasting a poor cctton crop, with heavy rains throughout the cotton belt at a criti cal time, and with the stock from last year's crop considerably reduced as compared to former years, there seems nothing for the price to do but advance. If it does not advance there is going to be much dis appointment, from the planter straight through to the exporter. If the South can get 15 cents a pound for cotton this season it will help some to meet the high prices for ne cessities which the Government tar iff barons seem determined Amer icans shall pay.—Savannah Press. 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 is 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, ot imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deaf ness is the resuit, and unless the in flamation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condi tion, hearing will be destroyed for ever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
