Elkhart* Ind 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.

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.

A few days ago he per performed his 1,887th marriage cere mony. 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. During the fiscal years 1905, 1906 and 1907 the number of immigrants arriving in the United States aver ! aaged more than one million per an- | num.

I t 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 Age-Herald. 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."
