Every commercial report and every statement of earnings or railroads, express companies and industrial cor porations that is issued now shows that, the country has entered a period which promise to become conspicu ous by unpredecented commercial ant industrial activities and phenomenal prosperity, says the New Orleans Journal. There is a daily growing confidence in the business world. It , is worthy of note that all captains of . finance and industry are extremely optimistic in their views of the fut ure. They believe that, barring ac cidents, the country is facing a pe riod of record prosperity. There is not one diverging opinion that the business outlook is on the whole very promising. We expect to see an enormous volume of business done in this country next autumn. Money is both easy and abundant, and the purchasing power of the rail roads and other large corporations has been largely increased by the nu merous successful flotations of bonds. I Tariff conditions will be settled at least before the summer is over. Witl money easy and with confidence fully restored the country should enter up ,on the greatest period of prosperity ' it lias ever experienced. Why should not the outlook be most! ■ encouraging? There are no disturb i ing political or economical issues ; overhanging the business situation. ; Crop reports as an entirety are the ■ I finest. The most important crop ; raised by the American farmer, corn, ’ which is also the most important one' | for our railroads, as it furnishes \ \ enormous tonage, promises to be a record-breaker. "There was never such a corn crop prospect. The yield will be the largest ever garnered,” ' declares President Winchell of the Rock Island railroad, ami he is cer tainly well posted, for the lines of his gigantic system traverse and cross tlie entire corn belt territory. Then the wheat crop promises to be the largest on record. This year's corn < rop is estimated at 3,50(1,000,000 bushels, of a value of over $2,000,000, 000. and the wheat crop is valued at over 83,000,000,000. The total value of all this year's crops will amount, to about nine billion dollars, and this means an enormous addition to the already great wealth of the country —especially to that of the farmer, who has been waxing rich in the last | f--w years. Not only will the American farm er be possessed on an unpredecented purchasing power-but the purchasing and consuming power of the Indus trial population of the large cities has greatly Improved, for trade and industry are expanding very fast and most wages reduced during the trade depression have been restored to the scales that prevailed before | the panic. Therefore, merchants and ; manufacturers will now have the op ! portunity not only to repair their for | lunes impaired by the panic, t>ut also i to expand to their heart's delight and ; Increase their wealth. All they have ito do is to advertise properly so as j to reach the city people, who have re gained their purcheasing power, and the country people, who are in good ■ financial condition.

An Atlanta dispatch says: "Its is estimated that the south is losing an nually $52,000,000 on account of the prevalence of the cattle tick," said Assistant Commissioner of Agricul ture R. F. Wright and of this sum Georgia is losing about one million dollars a year,” This startling statement was made before the Appropriations Committee when a bill to appropriate $5,000 an nually with which to push the work of eradicating cattle tick and other infections diseases of animals was up for consideration. Capt. Wright pointed out how the animals industry was one of the back bones of the country and that it was being seriously impaired by the cat tle tick which is meaning as much to this industry as the boll weevil is to the cotton crop. He showed where only three counties in the state are free from the tick and by use of the appropriation mentioned ten coun ties a year can be rid of this insect. The method of eradication is the en forcement of the fence law, keeping ail cattle separate and greasing thor oughly the cattle affected with tick. Crude cotton seed oil has been found to be one of the most successful greases to be used, ridding the cattle of the tick in short order. The cattle raising industry, as well as dairying, is on the increase in I Georgia now since cotton seed meal; has become the universal cattle food throughout the south, and with the eradication of the cattle tick in Geor- I gia, it is believed that this state will become one of the foremost cattle raising states'in the union. Captain Wright is of the opinion that this appropriation will be se : cured and the work of prosecuting tick eradication will be carried for ward successfully.

People wiio have to practice the i scrimping economies and study ways and means of keeping the wolf from the door often think how delightful and desirable must be the lot in life i of the millionaire and his family. Thej : forget the proverbial wisdom that tells us that a dinner of herbs and contentment therewith is better than a stalled ox where discord mars the feast. It is not necessary to have much in order to be exuberantly hap py. and very often those who are, in ! the world’s eye, well off in so far as j material possessions are concerned are mentally and spiritually poverty stricken —their dispositions prevent the serene and equable enjoyment of ! life's blessings; their search for amusement, though frantic, is in vain for time still hangs heavy on their hands, and they do not realize that there is no lasting pleasure in luxuri ous idleness, for rest brings tran quility and peace only after honest and unremitting labor.—Philadelphia Ledger.

( An Atlanta dispatch says notwith- ■ standing a falling off in gross , income of more than $200,000 for the ' fiscal year of 1909 the report of the ■ Central of Georgia railway submitted Saturday by Pres. .1. F. Hanson at ' a special meeting of the board of di- ' rectors, shows a net gain overlast year of approximately $400,000. Such a splendid showing was made because of a decrease in operating expenses of $650,000. Not only was a fine showing made in these two partic ulars, but the report showed that S6O, ; OOu more had been expended on the maintenance of the property than last yea . There will be no dividends paid, ■ however, on the first, second and third income bonds of the company. • Instead this money is set aside for betterments to the road. The meeting was held Saturday in i the offices of Major Hanson in the Candler building and was for the pur-' pose of passing on President Hanson’ annual report to the stockholders. The report showed a total in gross earnings of $10,901,809.32, compared with $11,117,025.73 for last year, : showing a decrease for this year of $215,216.41. ; The operating expenses for this year were $7,862,036.32, compared with SB, • • 518,977.62, or a decrease of $656,941.301 The increase in net. revenue is shown as $427,373.14. Instead of paying interest on the S i income bonds with the increases in earnings , $352,799.03 was expended for betterments and for the same ! purpose an increase over last year' lof $159,354.67 was reserved. In ad ! dition to this taxes on the Western i Railway of Alabama stock and stock ’ : of the C. & W. C. railway were paid, amounting to over $200,000. This I makes the report show the road ] ' breaking even instead of the deficit of $3,498.03 of last year. BANK VAULTS Precautions For the Purpose of Foil ing the Cracksmen. Many banks, especially those in '■ cities, have their vaults protected by ; , an elaborate system of concealed I wires connected to a central office not II so far away, so that the least tam ' pering with the combination lock or ’.any attack .upon the door or walls . will give the alarm at the central of -1 fice, where men are waiting day and 1 night to run to the rescue. The exact I ' method and devices that are used are ' kept rather secret, for fear the bur- ■ , glars themselves might learn too much about them, but it may be explained 1 that one part of the apparatus is an : extremely sensitive relay located at ? the central office. This delicate in strument closes a local circuit which sounds the alarm the moment there ' is the slightest disturbance of the hid den wires at and near the vault so that a gang of burglars could hardly get to work with their drills and their ( I nitroglycerin before the officers of the • i law would be upon them. In addition to protecting vaults and safes from the direct attacks of rob-, bers, electricity affords another safe guard by furnishing light which floods | the premises with searching beams Indeed, many banks, stores and ware houses rely mainly upon the electric i light without which the thickest walls and the strongest and most compli cated locks would be useless. They turn it on at night and leave their window shutters wide open so that I i the interior may be in full view of the policeman or watchman passing the windows all night. This makes it practically impossbile for lawbreakers to work unseen. To protect the money windows of | banks the teller behind the window i has a concealed push button at hand. J oftentimes placed under the counter where he can touch it unobserved. If any one tries to steal any money, the teller can call an officer instantly in this way. The cricuit is sometimes ar ranged to close the bank doors also by an electrically operated mechan ism before the thief has time to get to them and escape.—Harper's Week ly. Cholera Infantum Cured. "Something like two years ago my baby, which was then about a year old. was taken seriously ill with chol era infantum, vomiting and purging profusely, writes J. F. Dempsey of Dempsey, Ala. I did what I could to relieve her but did her no good, and being very much alarmed about her went for a physician but failed to find one, so came back by Elder Bros. & Carter's store and Mr. El der recommended Chamberlain’s Col ic Cholera and Diarrhoea remedy. I procured a bottle of it, went home as quickly as possible and gave the baby a dose of the remedy. It re lieved her in fifteen minutes and soon cured her entirely.” For sale by Summerville Drug Co.
