BILL TO PROTECT
CATTLE IS PASSED.
Atlanta, Ga. —A bill introduced by
Messrs. Johnson of Bartow’ and Reid
of Putnam was passed Friday morn
ing by the bouse, providing for the
protection of the live stock of Geor
gia from contagious or infectious
diseases, particularly the cattle tick.
The bill empowers the commission
er of agriculture to make and enforce
rules governing the treatment and
transportation of infected stock. It
gives the state Teteranarian power to
quarantine any section or district of
the state, and prevent the transporta
tion of stock to and from the infect
ed districts. When the veterinarian
quarantines any locality, he shall
serve notice to the live stock owners
therein, and shall issue warning to
common carriers operating through
such locality, forbidding them to
move any stock in the infected dis- ;
t.rlcts.
The bill makes an appropriation
of 15,000 for carrying out its provis- '
ions.
Messrs. Reid of Putnam, Butt of '
Fannin, Barrett of Stephens, Harde
man of Jackson and others, spoke
for the bill, emphasizing the necessity
of such legislation, declaring that j
most other states had already passed ;
! similar laws, that the federal govern '
rnent stood ready to aid Georgia, as
It had aided other states, by spend
■ ing ten and even twenty times more I
i than this paltry $5,000, which Geor
gia was to contribute. The fgderal
government only asked that the state
show some willingness to accept help
then it would devote national funds
I and national energy to eradicating
these diseases.
IN MEMORIAM.
Luke, son of Mr. and Mrs. T. J.
Foster, was born in Chattooga coun
ty, July 18, 1869.
As a lad he was a ray of sunlight
1 in his boyhood home, always scatter
ing seeds of kindness and cerfulness,
rather than sadness or pain h> those
who loved him. These tender virt
ues grew as he developed Into young
: manhood, causing him to early sur
render his heart, and Itfe to Jesus,
uniting with the Church of Christ at
Antioch, in August 1889.
At the age of 22 years be brought
to his cottage home the bride of
Ills choice Lula Sprat Wood. Later
God sent six children to brighten
their home, but soon in his all wise
j providence he saw best to take two of
them to himself again.
He was indeed a loving husband,
ami indulgent father; his ever tender
thoughtfulness to each member of
home, father, mother, sisters, broth
ers and friends characterized his cn
: tire life.
Ho was carefully and prayerfully
watched over, his suffering being as
far as possible alleviated, until for
further medical aid he was tenderly
carried to St. Joseph’s Infirmary.
But the dark angel of death crept
! In so soon and silently to carry his
sou) to the better shore of the spir
; it land, that it gave those near and
dear no opportunity to speak one lov
ing word —caused the bereavement to
seem doubly sad, doubly hard to
bear. How seldom we realize the ;
worth of companions or friends un
til they are forever gone. Then as
if to mock our grief each kind act.
each little delicate attention seems to
start out as of emblazoned on stone.
He was exceedingly fond of music
and was often heard singing his fa
vorite song— ‘'Will the waters be
C.'illy, when I am called to die.”
The latter years of his life were
spent in Atlanta, Ga.. where he made
scores of friends which was manifest
ed by the abundance of beautiful
floral offerings. He was laid to rest
in God’s acre at Sardis cemetery Jan.
7, 1909. and there we left him safe
ir the presence of his God.
So let every one strive to meet
him and when around the throne of
God in Heaven all will be revealed
and there, yes there, will be under
stood the full meaning of his raptu-
O' B gaze, his Heavenly smile, which
after the expression of agony—seem
ed assurance enough of "sight after
mystery—peace after pain.”
A FRIEND.

COTTON GRADES FIXED.

the Information of all.
Washington, D. C.—ln the act of
making appropriations for the depart
ment of agriculture for the year end
ing June 30, 1909, the secretary was
authorized '"to establish a standard
for the different grades of cotton
calling to his assistance for that pur
pose expert cotton classifiers, by fix
ing a standerd of middling cotton and
using the same as a basis, establish-,
ing a standard of nine different
i grades to be designated middling fair
strict good middling, strict middling, j
middling, strict low middling, low
middling, strict good ordinary and
good ordinary.” The secretary was
further authorized to prepare in prac-i
tical form the standard of said grades
; and furnish the same upon request to
j any person.
A committee which included depart ;
ment experts and prominent represen .
tatives of the cotton trade, was ap- .
| pointed to fix the grades.
The committee has just submitted
; a report which the secretary approv-!
ed, fixing the grades and making cer-I
tain recommendations in connection;
■ therewith.
Inview of the fact that contracts |
are made for cotton in advance of j
I the ensuing cotton season, the commit .
to (! recommended that the grades:
agreed upon bv the committee be not *
I
; promulgated for general use in trade '
: transactions prior to September 1,
1 1910.
In order, however, for the cotton
: trade to become fully acquainted with
the grades, the department of agri
culture will in a short time place sets!
wit li t ssoeiations, organizations and i
agricultural colleges for inspection |
These will enable the cotton produc
' ers merchants and spinners to be
come familiar with them.

No fewer than 1,500 towns and vil
lages in Germany still own, and have
owned, down from the middle ages, so
much common land that their inhab
itants pay neither rates nor taxes.
Five hundred of these townships and
villages derive as great a rental from
their lands that they are able, in ad
dition, to pay every citizen, on New-
Year's day, a bonus of from $25 to ■
$ 100 as his share of the surplus rev-I
enues.

APPROPRIATION FOR
DISTRICT COLLEGES
In order that the maintenance fund
of the eleventh district agricultural
schools may be not less than SIO,OOO
annually, the house of representatives
Friday morning passed a bill authoriz
ing an appropriation each year of $2,-
000, or as much thereof as may be
necessary to bring the fund up to
the amount specified. The measure
was introduced by Messrs. Brown, of
Carroll, and Anderson of Chatham.
The agricultural schools now receive
their support entirely from the fees
derived from the inspection of fertil
i izers and foods, and frequently, it is
! said, this fund is not sufficient to main
tain them in proper shape.
There was little opposition to the
bill, and it was passed by a vote of
129 to 16. Mr. Hall, of Bibb, voted
j against it because he said he believ
ed “all these schools are humbugs,"
and that they were “created and are
' maintained in violation of the law.
The South's Awakening.
In no section of this country prob
| ably has there been a more wonderful
i advancement in agriculture within
j the past ten or twelve years than in
j the South. Favored, as it is, with a
■ soil as fertile in many places as is
I lhe valley of the Nile and with the
: introduction of practical scientific
; methods, the belief is expressed by
officials of the department of agricul
ture that the Southland is bound to
take that place in agricultural devel
opments she merits.
A spirit of re awakening is coming
over the Southern farmer. The agri
| cultural progress in the South has
' been marked by material prosperity
such as perhaps has never before beer
enjoyed by the farming element of
that part of the country. The finan
cial condition of the Southern plant
!er began to take an upward tenden
jcy about 1897, since which time the
; situation steadily improved. The pro
duction of cotton —that great staple
crop of the South —increased 53 per
cent, from 1896 to 1908, and the val
ue of the crop 133 per cent. The
Southern farmer, long debt riddetj,
has to a marked degree been again
placed on his feet as it were by the in
creased prices he has received from
his cotton crop of late years. As
a natural consequence, he is devoting
more time to building himself a bet
ter home, to the education of his
children, he is in fact, deriving more
of the comforts of life than ever be
fore.
Under Prof. W. J. Spillman of the
bureau of plant industry, who has
charge of the farm management in
vestigations in the South, much has
been done to encourage better sys
tems of farm management, looking
to the restoration of fertility, the
bringing back of humus into the soil,
and the suggestions of improved ro
tations.
He says: “Southern farmers also
are turning their attention to stock
raising. Cattle have not been much
’ raised in the South, both because
| forage crops were not extensively
grown and because of the presence ot
the tick which spreads the dreaded
Southern cattle fever. The govern
ment, both state and national, is
: now making an effort to eradicate this
! tick, with every promise of success.
This will permit of the development
of an important new industry in the
South which is not affected by the
boll weevil.
‘“Apparently it wdll only be a
short time before the South will ad
just its agricultural industries to the
: changed conditions brought about by
the advent of the boll weevil, and
will be even more prosperous than
it was when cotton was king. At
the same time, owing to improved
acreage, the cotton crop will be even
greater than it is now."—Birmingham

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
