20 BALES OF COTTON
RAISED ON 10 ACRES.
Albany, Ga.,—One of the most
remarkable object lessons in the
cultivation of cotton ever present
ed in this section comes from
Clay county, and is presented by
W. T. Green, one of the most sue
cessful farmers in this section.
Mr. Green several years ago de
termined to make exhaustive experi
ments in cotton growing on the inten
sive plan.
He selected a measured patch of
ten acres of land of the character
best suited to the successful cultiva
tion of cotton, and planted the best
seed which he could procure in the
south. He fertilized liberally. In the
fall he ginned and sold ten bales of
an average weight of 500 pounds from
the measured ten-acre patch.
That was in 1907. In 1908 Mr.
Green planted the same ten acres in
cotton again. Again he secured seed
which- the Georgia experiment sta
tion had declared produced the most
prolific cotton grown, and again he
fertilized highly, using a good deal
more to the acre than he had put
down the year before. In the fall
Mr. Green ginned and sold fifteen
. 500-pour yales of cotton from his
measure, fen-acre patch.
But still Mr. Green was not. satis
fied and this year he planned and
planted for two bales to the acre. He
used the same ten acres which had
produced so abundantly in the two
I preceding years and was so fortunate
as to secure seed of a new variety,
' not yet on the market, but known to
be wonderfully prolific. He put down
: even more fertilizer than he had done
) in 1908, and knew exactly what sort
of fertilizer to use. He has cultivat
ed the field with great care, and the.
yield will be fully two bales, or 1,000
' pounds, to the acre. The field is
r said by those who have seen it to be
the most wonderful in Georgia, and
1 many arc prepared to wager that »t
- will yield twenty bales or more.
Whether Mr. Green will be content
’ with two bales to the acre remains to
be seen.

DR. T. L. BALLENGER.
Dr. T. L. Ballenger was born near
Spartenburg, S. C„ April 1, 1858, and
died Oct. 1, 1908. He moved from
South Carolina to Georgia with his
mother in 1870. He studied medicine
and graduated from the Southern
Medical College in Atlanta in 1891.
He practiced medicine at Cohutta,
Ga., fifteen years, removing to Sub
llgna at the death of his brother, Dr.
G. B. Ballenger, three years ago.
It was the mission of our brother
to administer to the physical as well
as the spiritual wants of his fellow
man, the faithfulness of which can
be attested -by those whom he served
Always by his genial Christian spir
it bringing cheer and hope to the
afflicted and despondent.
While we wonder to day why this
valuable life should have closed for
us while others are permitted to con
tinue God knows best. Such lives
are meet for the better world and
the Master is calling us in these dis
pensations of his providence to come
awhile apart with him and learn the
lessons set for us in their lives so
full of faithful work.
May we profit by his life work be
ing ever ready to do the biddings of
tne Holy Spirit.

' ton and Mrs. Martha Morton went out
to join the redeemed in the Eternal
i City In the mansions prepared for
. those who are faithful.
' Mrs. Morton was the daughter of
'• iur. and Mrs. Samuel Maloney and
was born Nov. 26, 1837. She profess
ied a faith in Christ and joined the
Baptist church early in life and has
lived a consistent member since.
She was married Aug. 22, 1872, to
'! Mr. T. R. Morton, who survives her.
Her only daughter, Miss Sarah S.
I Morton, died several years ago. She
leaves one son, Weston S. Morton.
Being reared in a pious home she
early developed the traits of a Chris
tian character which fitted her so
| well for the place she was destined to
! fill in after life. Although she had
j been driven to partial retirement by 11)
, health for the past ten years she es
teemed It a great pleasure to attend
i church service. Her patience and
trust in God amid the sorrows of
life were abiding and beautiful.
May her devoted Christian life be
an inspiration to those who have
known her to higher and better liv
ing. We extend our sympathy to her
aged husband and family.

THE SAFFRON PLANT.
It Is Among the Very Oldest of the
Vegetable Products.
The particular species of crocus that
has from time immemorial been culti
vated for its dried stigmas, a product
known under the name of saffron, is
Crocus sativus, which is wild from
Italy to Kurdistan. Saffron may be
reckoned among the very oldest of
vegetable products,! being alluded to in
the Song of Solomon among other
spices of Lebanon. The name crocus
Is Chaldean or Greek and was first
used by Theophrastus of Eresus about
350 B. C., and that it was a well
known and admired flower in Greece
soon afterward by Sophocles,
who mentions the “crocus of golden
beam” in his “Cedipus at Colonos.”
The word saffron seems to be a cor
ruption of the Arable name “al zahafa
ran,” and the product itself was first
ini]K>rted into England as a spice or
condiment, being also used as a color
or dye for silks and other fabrics of
the eastern looms.
At a later date, exactly when is not
known, the plant itself was cultivated
In England, more especially in Essex,
In which county the name of Saffron
Walden remains in evidence of the
fact. Again, we have in London Saf
fron hill, which formerly was a site
included in the bishop of Ely’s garden
at Holborn, once famous for its saf
fron beds as well as for its strawber
ries. Today, however, saffron is but
little used.—London Chronicle.
SUGAR AND CANDY.
Satisfy the Cravings of the Children
For Sweets.
Children may eat too much sugar,
and they may also stay too long in
their bathtub, or hi the creek when
they go in swimming, or get tanned or
a headach? from playing too long In
the sun, or chilled by staying too long
in the open air. but is that any sound
reason why they should be deprived of
sweets, sunlight, baths and fresh air
or discouraged from indulging in
them?
All that is needed, says Dr. Woods
Hutchinson in Success Magazine, is a
little common sense regulation and ju
dicious supervision, not prohibition or
denunciation. Most of the extraordi
nary eraving for pure sugar and can
dy, which is,supposed to lead the
average eld’d to inevitably "founder
himself it left to his own sweet will
mid a box of candy, is due to a state
of artificial and abnormal sugar star
vation. produced by an insufficient
amount of this invaluable food in its
regular diet.
Children who are given plenty of
sugar on their mush, bread and but
ter and puddings, a regular allowance
of cake and plenty of sweet fruits are
almost free from this craze for candy,
this tendency to gorge themselves to
surfeit, and can usually be trusted
with both the candy box and the sugar
bowl.
