Intereting Letter From a Former
Chattoogan.
Mr. Editor: If you will give me
space in your paper J will give your
readers a few dots from this little
-namesake of your capital city.
I first saw the rays of God’s sun
light six miles west of your beauti
ful little city, in Broomtown valley.
I left Chattooga for this place in
Dec. ’76, but have not forgotten a
great many of her good people, beau
tiful valleys, springs and picturesque
scenery.
I noticed in your paper of the 19th
hist., "A Bale to Every Acre,.” Ev
ery word under that heading is ab
solutely tr ie, and the quicker the
Southern people adopt that system of
farming the better it will be for
them. Last winter one of our na
tional banks offered one hundred dol
lars to the man that would raise the
moat cotton per acre, and the same
amount to the one raising the most
corn per acre. A good many farm
ers are contesting for the prizes, and
the result is a good many acres
of Die finest cotton and corn ever
seen in this county, notwithstanding
the hot wave and Mr. 801 l Weevil.
We have here a Fruit and Truck
growers Association which raises
Irish potatoes, peaches and other pro
duce for the Northern markets. The
peach crop was a total failure this
year, have a fine corn crop and a
moderately good crop of other produce
raised hero.
Tin first bale of cotton sold in At
lanta the 17th Inst., for 12 5-lfic and
$23 premium, a year's subscription
to each of our papers. The hustling
early bird gets best worm most gen
erally.
Cast county and Northeast Texas
is a good country and has many
good things in and under her soil,
not yet developed, but is not supe
rior i.i any way to Chattooga and
North Georgia.
If this is worth printing and you
and your readers have any curiosity
to Unnw who 1 am, will say I am

Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach tile diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness and that is Ly constitution
al remedies. Deafness is caused by
an iruflamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a rum
bling sound, or Imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed. Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
f lama (ion can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condi
tion, hearing will be destroyed for
ever: nine cases out of ten are
caused by Cata.rh, which is nothing
but an inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.

EEMINOLE
We have had some extremely hot,
and dry weather and the corn and
cotton is damaged a great deal; we
cannot say just what per cent.
The protracted meeting at Sardis
has closed with eleven additions to
the church —6 by experience and 5
by letter. Rev. W. M. Griffitt was
very faithful in preaching, and dis
charged his duty as pastor, I think,
, in every particular. There was a
t good deal of interest at the close
. of the services Sunday.
, We had a very nice shower of
rain last Saturday afternoon. Some
, are pulling fodder and others are
saving hay. Mr. T. A. Gayler has cut
a fine lot of peavines for hay. Mr.
. Dayton Pledger has cut down some
• of his corn that he did not get to
• work.
Cotton is opening prematurely on
account of the dry, hot weather we
■ have had. There has not been much
lay bye time this year with farmers
of our community. There is still late
corn that was planted in July and
tlie first of August that would be
i better with another plo.wing.
Now is a busy time with farmers
; and many are not able to pull their
fodder on account of sickness. A
great many are chilling. Mr. Turner
i has moved his family to the foot of
tlie mountain to get rid of the chills
. and malaria. There is a big pond
; of water near Mr. Turner's on J. R.
Henderson’s land that is the cause
■ of the sickness there. But Mr. Hen
derson is going to have it. ditched off
then 1 hope they will quit chilling.
There was a great many friends
and relatives at the funeral and burial
of Mrs. J. 11. Hill last Wednesday.
Surely a good woman has gone to
rest. She has been in bad health a
long time but suffering is now over
and she is at rest.

l ore in Alabama died Sunday and
was buried Monday.

——
GEORGIA’S COTTON CROP
REDUCED BY DROUTH.
Atlanta, Ga. —Reports from middle
and North Georgia indicate that exces
sive drouth and heat of the past fort
night have appreciably damaged cot
i ton in those sections, and that as a
j result there will be a reduction rang
ing from 15 to 30 per cent in the
yield.
South Georgia has also felt the de
teriorating effects of recent weather
! conditions, though not to the same ex
tent as the middle and upper portions
of the state, for the reason that in
! the former section the crop was
i practically made up half a month ago
with the exception of what is known
as the top crop.
Assistant Commissioner of Agri
; culture Robert F. Wright, explained
I this untoward weather and its effects
as follows:
"Some two weeks ago our cotton
had reached that stage where it ma
terially needed rain. .Tune, July and
the first of August had been a very
wet season. The cotton was full of
sap. It had put out a great deal of
extra growth which needed moist
ure to take care of it. Then the sky
turned cloudless and the sun beat
down mercilessly upon the parched
fields. As a result the crop has been
hurt, to just what extent. I would
not undertake to estimate.”
There are three growths of cotton
■ One of these is at the bottom of the
stalk and matures earliest. Then
comes the middle and the top growth
one above the other which mature la
tter, the top growth being last. This
is the portion of the crop which has
suffered most.
As a result of the foregoing situa
tion together with the decreased cot
ton acreage, it is predicted that Geor
gia’s crop will be cut down this year
trom 15 to 20 per cent, though this
estimate is in no sense authorative.
Various calculations place Georgia’s
shoitage in number of bales this sea
son from 200.000 to 400.000. Last
season the state produced 2,026,000
bales. i
reduction will be evidently in the
amount of money Georgia receives
this year for the crop. For cotton
has been around 12 cents and may
go still higher while last year it
reached only 8 1-2 and 9 cents. ■
This increase in price'is due in part i
to the reduction in acreage. Some- i
lung like 4.000,000 acres were plant- i
ed last spring which represents a <
de<-rcase es about 6 per cent. This ’
fact together with the present damage i
to tile crop and conditions over the 1
lulled States at large have worked <
together to raise the price of the i
great staple, and to hold it firm with 1
a prospect of increase. s
i
There are many tonics in the land.

Mrs. Fleming Mobley,
At Menlo, Ga., on August 16th,
1909, after a long illness was called
from earth to the ‘‘Home of many
Mansions” to be forever with the
Lord. How true it is that death loves
a shining mark. She was loved by ■
all on account of her kind and lov
ing disposition, these qualities made
her a great favorite.
In early life she gave her heart
to God and joined the Presbyterian
church. She lived a sweet, helpful
devoted life. On account of her I
death a cloud of sorrow hangs over 1
cur church and community. She
leaves a husband and several chil
dren and a host of relatives and
friends to mourn her loss. W e ex
tend to the bereaved ones our deep
est sympathy and in Christian love
point them to that only source from
which cometh our help. We thank
God that even though that sweet .
voice has been hushed, though those
dear hands have been folded to rest,
the influence of that beautiful life
shall live through eternity.
