"What is a dollar, anyhow’" The question is an easy one to answer A dollar is what some men promise to pay for their county paper It is something a newspaper man > njoys more in anticipation than in realtiy.

One effect of this has I been to make it harde r tor w ngt learners lu buy something to eat Money is growing cheaper all the I while. A Few Thoughts From The “Empire State of The South” —Georgia. During my stay in this state 1 have met a large number of people, most of whom seem to be honest, earnest, energetic and industrious citizens. People who have realized that they are living not only for thmc selves, but for others. Knowing that this is their own their native land the land they fought for, the land they love, they are put ting forth efforts to uphold and strengthen it. The social bonds that unite the people of Georgia are close and complete and their character for industry, honesty, and public spirit has manifested itself in the de velopment of the material wealth of the state and in the progressive spirit of her citizens. Georgia is an agricultural state and most of her people are engaged in farming. The productions are cot ton, corn, wheat, sweet-potatoes, Irish potatoes, sugar cane, rice, fruits, pea nuts and pecans. The annual yield of cotton in Georgia is 1,500,000 bales valued at SSO, 000,000. The corn crop is about 35.000,000 bushels. The low swampy lands of the tide water re- I gion are given to the cultivation of rice, of which about 7,500.000 bushels are produced annually. Large quan tities of water melons, cantaloupes, cabbage. English peas, beans, okra and tomatoes are produced and ship ped to northen markets. Peaches of the finest quality are grown in all parts of the state. Georgia ranks first in the production of this fruit, and the anual products are valued at or more than $5,000,000. (there is a peach orchard near here containing 500 acres) The soil and climate are adapted to the growth of grapes and considerable attention is now given to vineyards. Large quantities of straw-berries and many other varities of fruit and vegetables are abundant. Georgia stands in the front rank of the southern states in extent varie ty and value of her manufactures. Over one hundred cotton mills, valuet at about $25,000,000 are in operation in the state. The largest cotton mill are located at Augusta and Columbus where the rivers falling over the foot hills which divide middle -Georgia from the cotton seed and the meal water power. A valuable oil is made from the cotton seed ond the meal and hulls furnish cheap and whole some food for cattle and the meal is also used as a fertilizer for which it is very valuable. Recently a ma- chine was invented for making paper from the cotton stalk. This makes the cotton plant by far the most use ful plant cultivated. Every part of it except the roots is used for the good of man. Lumber manufacturing is a very important industry in this state. In the extensive yellow pine forests of the southern section are many large saw-mills. In the rosin and turpentine industry Georgia ranks first. Among the important manufacturing enterprises may be mentioned steel furnaces and foun dries, machine shops for the manu facture of agricultural implements, furniture and carriage factories, ice plants, clothing factories, marble and stone works, electric light and pow er works and canning factories.

Children Cry FOR FLETCHER’S CAST O R I A The Exceptional Equipment ot the California Fig Syrup Co. and the scientific attainments of its chemists have rendered possible the production of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, in all of its excellence, by obtaining the pure medic inal principles of plants known to act most beneficially and combining them most skillfully, in the right proportions, with its wholesome and refreshing Syrup of California Figs. As there is only one genuine Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna and as the gen uine is manufactured by an original method known to the California Fig Syrup Co. only, it is always necessary to buy the genuine to get its beneficial effects. A knowledge of the above facts enables one to decline imitations or to return them if, upon viewing the package, the full name of the California Fig Syrup Co. is not found printed on the front thereof.
