I saw iu the Leary locals of the Courier last Week where N’importo was chewing tho rag because he failed to get an Xmas present. Now, brother, there is 110 need of that, as I did not do much better than you, for I only got a box of R. R. snuff. Now keep quiet and perhaps you will come in next Xmas.

The Blakely Observer now comes out twice a wook( Monday and Thurs¬ day,) Editor Powell is a hustler and Blakely should be proud of him. The editor of The Quitman Free Press has visited James Tisou’s farm iu the northern part of Brooks county. He is a successful! farmer in other lines, but tho most striking feature of his entire farm is his syrup crop, Air. Tisou planted this year eighteen acres in cane. He has made from his patch three hun¬ dred barrels of syrup. Ho lias sold and delivered one hundred barrels at 20 cents per gallon, which netted him $650 in round numbers. If succeed in finding a market for the remainder of his crop at the same price, which can bo easily done, he will realize from his eighteen acres the sum of $1,950. The entire crop, for fertilizers, work, making and bringing to market, will not cost him more than $600. This leaves Mr. Tison a clear profit on the eighteen acres of $1,350. Mr. Tisou, this year, has been at considerable extra expense in putting iu a new mill, evaporators, etc., and the profit on his next year’s crop will be oven greater than it has been this,,year. ltrooks county is the home of Georgia simp, and what Sir. Tison has done is only un example of w hat others can and are doing there. The merit of Rrooks county sirup is each year making a wider market for it, and tho prospects are that the price*vrill be eveu! hotter in the future than it is now.—Ex Alway look oir the bright side of things—and if you'are buying them it would be well t© ,|ook on both sides.
