Was Presented to a Good Sized Audi ence Last Night. The Convict’s Daughter was the bill at the Grand last night and was wit nessed by a very good audience. As the name implies the production is one of the drama tragedy order, and the presentation last night seemed to give satisfaction to the audience, but was not notable for any special degree of merit. There was nothing in the way of specialties to appeal to those present However, the members of the cast were fairly good actors and played their respective parts very creditably. Wallace Hopper, who appeared in a trio of roles did very good work and Miss Pauline Sain made a creditable Edith. WAY DOWN EAST TONIGHT. This Excellent Attraction Will be at the Grand. The remarkable longevity of “Way Down East,” which is to he present ed at the Grand tonight, is proven by the fact that one company playing it rarely leaves New England, and only then for a short run through the Southeastern states. Nearly every city and town in Newi England is familiar with the play. Other companies have presented it as far west as British Columbia. It is estimated that a large majority of the railroad towns in the United States of over 10,000 population have been visited. The play has made a fortune for Messrs. Brady and Grismer, and seems destined to live many years, and is one of the bast attractions that will be at the Grand this season. AN ACTING AUDITOR NAMED. J. D. Stroms Named by the B. & B.

OTIS TALKS 10 THE FARMERS Cotton Cultivation the Subject of Commissioner This Time IHE QUESHON OF LABOR Georgia’s Commissioner of Agricul tore Gives Some Timely and Val uable Suggestions to Farmers of the State. Tho question of labor is getting to bo such u 6ericu3 one to our farmers that it is very essential to their suc cess to find some plan which will en able them, with less labor and less acreage, to raise us much cotton as heretofore. Of course it will require very scien tific farming to raise as much cotton on ten acres as used to be raised on twenty. To do this will require intel ligence and diligence. Some in Geor gia have dono it; why not others? Thcro are farmers of our acquaint ance who have taken land that was considered exhausted and almost worthless, and by 'careful, persistent, diiligent farming on the intensive plan, have brought it up to the point where it produces on tho average one bale of cotton to the acre. This has been done by careful study of the needs of the land, by a judicious ro tation of crops and skillful use of both domestic and commercial fertilizers. Success demands not only the ex penditure of time and labor, but also of money. Put as much time on ten acres as you aid on twonty and spread upon the ten as much fertilizer as upon the twenty and you can double the average production to the ficre. But no farmer can hope to obtain this result who uses oldfashloned tools and the oldtime methods. Use the Best Toole. In order to properly pulverize the soil and get the right kind of a seed bed, which is the first essential of suc cess with every crop, and then to prop erly plant and cultivate, the farmer must use Improved plows, rollers, har rows, planters, weeders and cultiva tors. With Improved Implements the farmer will be able not only to plow the land to the necessary depth, but also with rollers to crush the clods on a strip three to eight feet wide across tbe field, with no clods left un broken, to require the extra labor ot going over the field and breaking them one at a time. In order to use this Improved machinery the field must, of course, he cleared of stumps am! rocks. Preparation and Cultivation. When the farmer has thoroughly turned up his land with the plow, sub soiling If necossary, and every clod has been thoroughly broken with hnr row and roller, he should then put on the necessary kind and amount of fer tilizer by either broadcasting 01 by opening the furrows and bedding on it. If It Is put between the rows. When ready to plant, he will do well to distribute a small part ol fertilizer with the seed. In the well prepared soil lie should put the seed in rows from three to six feet apart, and when the plants have grown to sufficient height thin them out to a distance of twelve or twenty four inches apart, determining the dis tance by the fertility of the soil. The great thing to be -desired Is that the stalks, when grown, should barely meet In the row, so that they may thus secure the strength of the land for the fruit. Fertilizers. A Judicious use of fertilizers In creases greatly the productiveness oi the fields. On every farm there ire manurlal resources- —from the horse lot, the cow jien and the barnyard. These should all be gathered together and saved under shelter for use at ihe proper time. A compost of these animal manures with marl, muck, coton seed and commercial fertilizers will greatly re dtice the cost of fertilization. As has been remarked by one of our most successful farmers, the cow is the best fertilizer factory. If In the let which has been used as a cow pasture, the ground is turned every month or so, and the cattle removed to another lot, the whole farm may be gradually enriched up to the poinl where it will have double its formet productiveness, and even more, pro vfded the farm is well supplied with live stock. Every up-todate farmer must so manage that his farm shall be thus supplied. He should have a few fat cattle to sell every year, and yet have an increase of his herd. Sev enty-five per cent of the food which they consume will be returned to ths land under proper management, and his herd will not only pay for the expense of their keeping, but give him a good profit besides. In order to bring his land up to the highest point of productiveness he will find that after utilizing all the home prepared fertilizors. hg will aeed tp purchase largely of commercial fertil izers, and of high grade at that. Although we know the importance of the well prepared compost, we also know how greatly a good, high grade commercial fertilizer will add to the fertility of even good land. We recognize the fact that good farm labor is growing scarcer each year, and also that there is too groat a tendency to exhaust our lands by requiring too much of them and in i return giving them only a half ration of plant food. Let the farmer study the needs of hia land and feed it as he would his stock. On account of the scarcity of labor let him fertilize his land until he can make ten acres produce what twenty now supply. Selection of Seed. Even the best preparation and cul tivation with the most judicious use of fertilizers will fail to produce the best results, unless attention is given to the selection of seed. The farmer should carefully select for his planting seed from some well approved variety, and then watch the growth of his cotton and carefully se lect for his next year's planting seed from those stalks which have yielded the largest number of boils of the best quality, and which have proven most capable of resisting any disease that may have appeared in his crop. It is a good plan to send some com petent hand over the cotton fields and select the best developed bolls from each plant. A better plan is to go with tho man who makes the selec tion. and see that It is well done. The seed thus selected should not. be mined with other seed and great caro should be taken that they should not become heated during the process of drying. Personal Supervision. Nothing makes everything upon the farm succeed and prosper as it ought like personal supervision of the mas ter. Ho should see that his land is properly prepared, planted and culti vated, and that the farm implements are properly cared for. It will not do to leave such matters to the most trusted hand, unless he he a thorough ly competent white farmer, employed to attend to al! the business of the farm. O. B. STEVENS, Commissioner of Agriculture. OVER STUDY. Children Don’t Break Down When Fed Right. It is often the case that, when children break down at school it is attributed to over,study, when it real ly only a case of improper feeding. This can easily be overcome bv a little care in the selection of food and drink. ‘Since childhood i have been a coffee drinker and about a year ago I became so nervous and run dow-n that I was compelled to leave school and give up studying altogether. “Everyone thought my ill health was due to overstudy but during several months of rest my condition did not Improve but intend I grew worse. Medicines failed to help me and I Was sick and miserable all the time, condition shrdlu shrdlu lirlu ryfu'p One day a friend while discussing my condition advised me to leave off cof fee and try Postum. It was not long before I began to gain strength for Postum began to build mo up almost immediately. “in less than three months from the time I lieft off coffee and used Pos turn I was back again at my studies and was soon studying harder than before and, yet looked hrdlu over before and yet I felt and looked fresh and strong in spite of the hard work. There can be no doubt in the world that all this improvement was dm- to leaving oft' coffee and dringing Postum in its place. “My married sister, hearing what Postum did for me, thought she would try it hut In making it she did not follow direcetions and got a weak and characterless drink fre.m which she and her family turned in disappoint ment. It was shortly after this I vis ited her and made Postum as directed on the package which is easy enough and all wore so delighted they said they liked it better than coffee. Since then Postum has held a high place in my sister’s household and her health is very much better since she left oil coffee and began Postum. “A schoolmate of mine whose com plexion was very sallow and muddy saw what Postum did for me and de cided to drink it in place of coffee and it was but a short time until she began to gain strength and her com plexion lost its sallow hue. Now she says she will stick to Postum.” This young lady also tells of num erous other relatives aud friends whose health, appearance anil wcigiit have been very much benefited by leaving off coffee and drinking Postum’ the food drink.
