The
General Demand
of the Well-Informed of the World has
always been for a simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy of known
value; a laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its com
ponent parts are known to them to be
wholesome and truly beneficial in effect,
acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with it« ex
cellent combination of Syrup of Figs and
Elixir of Senna, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits of the laxative for its remark
able success.
That is one of many reasons why
Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is given
the preference by the Well-Informed.
To get its beneficial effects always buy
the genuine—manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale
by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents
per bottle.

To Uncle Jim Fowler's Boy, a few

many other things. As to farming
people have got in the habit of giv
ing all their time to working cotton
and buying guano and flour, meat
and corn, and it is a good thing for
the merchant that we do that way
They can sell us flour at $5.00 per
hundred Just as easy as three dollars,
and corn at $1.25 per bushel pro
' vided we can make a good note, that
1 will get the cash at the bank, unless
we have a few Dick Days to sell us
cheap flour and we go on in the same
old way we have been in for several
years, we will be in a bad fix.
A few words on taxes and I will
close. Seminole never reduced her

Automobiles to Haul Road Drags.
At Salina, Kan., an effort is being
made to induce each automobilist to
drag several miles of road after each
rain. The theory is that the use of the
drag places the earth on the crown
of the road, where it dries and hard
ens. After another rain a repetition
of the dragging carries on more earth
which in turn hardens, and after a
few such applications of the drag
there is a considerable hardened sur
face to the road which does not easi
ly disintegrate. The employment of
the motor car to haul the drag would
demonstrate a hitherto unemployed
utility of the machine.

STATE NOT “BROKE” <
SAYS POPE BROWN. 1
1
Elberton, Ga.,—Before one of the <
largest crowds of farmers ever gath- i
ered in Elbert, Hon. J. Pope Brown, 1
state treasurer, spoke at the county i
rally of the Elbert union Saturday, i
: Fully 1,800 people were present.
Mr. Brown's speech was along the ,
line of education, and he paid a great
tribute to the work of the Farmers’ ;
union, and also said the rural deliv
: ery of mail to the farmers of Geor
gia and the south was of great bene
fi to the masses.
He. gave as an instance of parti
san politics, where some of the news
papers of the state tried to make it
appear that the state was “broke.”
This, he said, was wrong. That Geor
gia was not any worse off financially i
at present than she had been in sev-
. oral years.
WHY NOT LET THE GRASS
MAKE MONEY FOR YOU
This is an opportune time to drive
; in an object lesson, If it were possi
ble for such a thing to be done to
this perverse generation of. southern
' farmers who were recently about to
: perish in about a week in one whole
; section because a railroad strike
■ threatened to cut off the Western
i supply of provisions. Nevertheless, :
it is our duty to cry out, as a faith-
■ ful watchman on the tower, whether
’ any heed or not—possibly some poor
■ farmer may be saved, and it is worth j
. the attempt. So here is the lesson: j
One of the essentials of successful
stock raising is good pasturage: and
i one of the greatese handicaps to suc
i cessful stock raising in may sectios
■ of the south is the lack of suitable ■
I pastures.
A good pasture means, first of all, :
I plenty of grass: but there are otherj
• things necessary to make a really i
good pasture. It must have water :
. and shade as well as grass, and in
• any section where cultivation has
s succeeded range conditions it must
; be enclosed.
Now, of shade and water there is
no scarcity in the south, and we have
the grass, too, if we would only, re- |
alize it. But when it comes to fences j
i we are tremenduously handicapped. I
I It is safe to say that there are :
[ thousands of farmers in every south-!
■ ern state who would grow many
■ more and much better cattle and
i horses, hogs, and sheep if they had
■ \ good pastures for them to run in.
i Yet it is easy to find all over the
. cotton belt fields grown up in ber- i
■ muda —one of the finest pasture |
; grasses in the world —in which the i
•' owners plant corn or cotton year at’-:
■ ter year and spend all summer fight
ing the grass only to have a poor j
| and very expensive crop at the sea- j
i son’s end. We heard not long since I
' a farmer talking of how he was going
’ to kill out the bermuda on a poor
1 hill side preparatory to getting it
’ ready to sow in grass. All that he |
1 needs to do —aud all that thousands
of other farmers need to do —is to
1 put a good fence about that field and
1 some stock on it and give it a little
i attention a few years, keeping down
: briers and bushes and giving it an
• occasional harrowing, and he would
■ have a pasture which would pay him j
f ten times as much as he is now get-
1 ting from those acres.
I A good permanent pasture should
be one of the established institutions
on every farm, and in the despised
• and neglected bermuda we have a
■ grass of which Professor Spillman of
I the United States department of ag
l riculture says that “no other grass
i bears pasturing better or yields more
’ herbage in the form of pasture.”
■ With out winter-growing grasses and
■ legumes it would be easy for us to
i supplement it so as to have pastures
■ practically the whole year round.
: Yet we go fighting it to grow
- sorry crops of low-priced cotton and
■ tobacco to pay for the butter and
' beef and lard and bacon this same
. grass would make for us if we would
let it. Only another one of the
south's neglected opportunities.—

A SUCCESSFUL MEETING
At the Church of Christ, Trion,
Georgia.
I hope you will allow me space in
your paper to tell of the great
amount of good that has been ac
complished in a recent protracted
meeting which occurred at Trion, Ga.
beginning July 18 and closing Aug
ust Ist.
Oh, how it fills our hearts with
joy when we see the people “turn
from the power of Satan unto God,” .
and that is what precious souls have
dune in this meeting. There were six
from the Baptists. We are sur
prised that there were not more ad
ditions. It was surely not because
they did not understand their duty,
because Mr. Jno. T. Smithson pre
sented it to them just as it was penn
ed down by the inspired writer of
long ago. He is a very able preach
er and knows exactly what his bus
iness is when he gets up fn the pul
pit. He is not ashamed of the Gos
pel of Christ, and “shuns not” to
declare all the counsel of God.
And that he may live long to preach
tne Gospel to every creature, bap
tizing them in the name of the
Father, Son and Holy Ghost, is the
prayer of one who is much interest
ed in the salvation of souls.

In Memory.
On May the Ist, 1909, the sweet
gentle spirit of Mrs. J. G. Stephen
; son was called home to rest. We
mourn to see our loved ones falling
one by one yet when they fall with
the armor on we should rejoice that
the victory is won.
Sister Stephenson was the daugh
ter of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Clark. Was
married to Mr. Stephenson in 1892.
She professed a hope in Christ while
young and joined Poplar Springs Bap
tist church, and lived a devoted mem
ber until called home to rest. She
leaves a husband, seven* children, a
father and mother and several sis
i ters and brothers and a host of rela
i tlves and friends to mourn her death.
I We in our finite minds cannot solve ;
the problem why she was taken when
her life was of so much value to her
home and her church, but we will
not question God’s wisdom for we
i know she has exchanged earth’s dross
; for purest gold. She lived a gentle, ’
I quiet, Christian life, always true to
! her church and its institutes. She
' was a devoted wife and a loving
: mother, and her greatest desire was
to raise her children to be Christian
men and women. May her gentle
life and Christian training lead them
in the paths of right and meet her
in the sweet beyond where parting ;
is no more.
All her earthly journeys are passed,
' Every tear and pain gone by,
' She has reached that heavenly seat,
At the portals of the sky.
The church extend to Bro. Stephen
son its sympathy. We know we i
have lost one of our most honored
and loved members, but God’s will be i
done.

Brother C. C. Cordle was born !
in South Carolina 76 years ago and
moved to Floyd county, Ga., when he
was a child. He was married to
i Miss Martha Green in 1855. He :
moved to Chattooga county in 1856.
He joined the Baptist church at
Poplar Springs in August, 1859, and
was baptised, he and his wife at the
same time, by Bro. Tursell.
His wife died in 1869. There were
■ eight children of that union. He
I married Mrs. S. E. Herndon in Octo
ber, 1875 and was blessed with eight
children of this union. Six of his chil
dren preceded him in death. Bro.
Cordle was a devoted companion, a
loving father, a good neighbor, a
loyal citizen and a Christian gentleman
Fifty years faithful service in old
Poplar Springs church makes a won
derful record. He loved his church
and rejoiced in its service, and lived
to see his children all baptised in
his church. He was cheerful and
temperate and loved his family aud
his neighbors. It was no wonder that
when he was lying on his death bed
he could say. “it is sweet to live,
but will be better up there.”
Brother Cordle passed away in a
good old age, an old man and full
of years; and was gathered to his
people. He leaves a wife, several
sons and daughters, 50 grandchildren,
five great grandchildren, and a host
of friends to mourn his death. He
was buried at South Carolina camp
ground. Bro. A. F. Mahan conducted
the funeral service.

IN MEMORY
It was June the 17th, 1909, that
death came and wafted to regions be
yond the spirit of our brother, E. N.
Helgwood of Menlo, Ga., after a
long and protracted illness.
Mr. Heigwood had gone to Look
out mountain, near McLemore’s Cove,
for his health, but death came a few
days after he got there. He died
at the home of his son-in-law and
daughter, Mr. and Mrs. C. D. Gil
breath, and was buried according to
his request at Mt. Olive cemetery on
the mountain.
He was a good man and was liked
by all. Part of his last words were:
“I want you all to meet me up yon
der.” How awful it was to his
many friends when they heard of
his death, but alas! it was true, yet
it was only a short step over the
river where the blessed Savior in
whom he had trusted and served so
long in this sinful world and had la
bored in his vineyard with me and
others to get poor sinners to repent
of their sins and seek their Savior.
I have known Bro. Heigwood for
about forty years and knew him to
be a devoted Christian. But his work
on earth is done and he is gone, leav
ing a wife and nine children, three
sons and six daughters, to mourn
his loss. But while we miss him so
much and his talking so much of his
future home and leaving behind that
he way was clear we feel and believe
that our loss in his eternal gain, and
that his spirit is rejoicing with three
children and the spirits of all the
good and with the blessed Savior
who has done so much for us. Bro.
Heigwood was 66 years, 5 months and
6 days old, being born the 11th day
, of January, 1843, and died the 17th
day of June, 1909.
1 I would say to the bereaved weep
not for him, for he is so much better
of than we, for one minute is worth
more to him now than his whole
life was here. Only press forward
i and be ready when the angel of
death shall come to join him in heav
en where parting will come no more.
Still it is true that a dear friend
from us has gone,
The voice is stilled that we loved
so well,
Oh, how me miss him, no tongue can
tell.
Safe in the arms of Jesus.,
Safe on his gentle breast,
Is our brother rejoicing.
Where there is sweetest rest.
He has gone from us forever,
Gone to live with the angels and
with God,
His body is sweetly' sleeping.
In his grave beneath the sod.
Never more on earth we will see him
Never more will we see him smile,
He has left us how we miss him;
But only for a little while.

To find the weight of a block of
ice without scales, take a rule and
measure the three dimensions of
the block, in inches. Multiply' the
length and breadth and this by
the thickness and this will give the
number of cubic inches in the piece.
Then divide this by 30 and you will
have the number of pounds of ice
in the block. For instance a piece
of ice ten inches by six inches by five
inches will weigh 10 pounds. A
, piece ten by twelve by ten will
weigh 40 pounds. A piece ten by fif
teen by ten will weigh 50 pounds. A
piece twelve by twelve by twenty will
• weigh 100. A little practice will en
able one to tell the weight of ice in
this manner quicker than one can or
dinarily by weighing it. If you are
careful in your measurements the re
sults obtained may be relied on as
correct to the fraction of a pound.
