JUNE IT, 1004 It has been noticed that very few of the jurors who serve in the Superior and City courts of this county are citizens of the northeastern portion of the coun¬ ty— And the question has been asked why the names of many good citizens from that quarter s.ce not in the jury box. No one for a moment thinks chat the jury commissioners would be guilty of tiny intentional slight to any of Vheir fellow citizens. The mis¬ take has originated from the fact til at most of the people of that ■section do their trading in Albany or Doerttn and are net so well Jknown at the county town as the -people from other sections of the county. The Enterprise is con¬ fident that the jury commission¬ ers will look into the matter, and, if a mistake has been made, it wv;li not be re, eated. Hon. H. G. Turner is Dead. News was received in Camilla on last Uriday morning that this distinguished Georgian was dead the sad event occuring at the home of his brother, Dr. E. V. Turner in Raleigh, N. C., at 2 o’clock on Thursday morning. This sad death came as a shock to all Georgians, but more espec¬ ially to South Georgia, where he was known and appreciated for his great worth as a private citi rn in his home and section, as an able lawyer and a wise states¬ man, having occupied distin¬ guished positions of trust, with¬ out his seeking, at the hands of his fellow citizens, both in the state and national halls of legis¬ lation and later occupying a seat as an associate justice in the Su¬ preme Court of the state, which he was compelled to resign be¬ cause of his failing health. It is useless for the editor of the Enterprise, who has known Judge Turner for more than thir¬ ty years, to attempt to eulogize this noble gentleman in language befitting the man more than to say that he |was a man of deep thought, firm in convictions which were always founded upon a thorough knowledge of the sub ject at hand, attained from close study. For him to act was to know, beyond a teasonable shad¬ ow of doubt, that he was right. I i public life, his disposition was modest and retiring, which made him appear cold and dis¬ tant, yet he was easy of approach, gentle as a child and polite and respectful to the most humble citizen. His death brings sorrow'to the entire country and to none moie poignant than to his old Mends and consutuenis of >he Second Congressi:r*al District. What Shall Camilla be? Judge Underwood, Camilla’s hustling real estate agent, in¬ forms the Enterprise that he just can’t find an eligible resi¬ dence lot for sale in the town;— that again and again he hai tried to buy lots for parties and the owners wont sell. What’s the matter? How are we to build up a town if the people will not sell lots? Look at the big corn fields and cotton patches right within the corporate limits that could be cut up into lots and sold at prices that would put more money into the owners’ pockets than the nett profits of the cultivated land will pay in a life time. If we are go¬ ing to have a town let’s have one. If we are going to keep Camilla in a cotton patch and corn field, don,t call it a town. Camilla must decide. It can’t be country and town at the same time. Mr. W. L. Bennett has bought 20 acres of land in South Camilla from Mr. C. C. Cochran. This means much for Camilla and the county. Just beyond this tract lies the Hoggard place now own¬ ed by Mr. Bennett, which he al¬ ready has greatly improved. He will, as soon as the crops are gathered, continue Harney street through to the Hoggard place, and then ran a wide lane on to the Underwood lane. Then this can be made the public road to Pelham and the two towns of Mitchell county will probably soon have something like a pub lie road connecting them. They have at present a [ oor apology for a public road and ti e county authorities should look into this matter. Mr. Bennett is going to do a good thing for the town, county and himself. DeWitt’sltir.f Salve For Plies, Burns, Sores* Double Your Crop. The following from t he Atlanta Journal is published by request. S. W. Reynolds, Atlanta, Ga. Editor Semi-Weekly Journal;— Please let me say in your widely circulated paper that every acre cultivated from now on as follows, will at least double the produc¬ tion. Stop all your plows until the futl moon, as the surface or feed roots are now running out very rapidly, and will continue until full moon when all this will die off. Then for two weeks (from full until change there will be none) plow alt your crop over with your deep plows—corn with turn¬ ers, and cotton with scooters. Plow as close up to cotton as you can with small plows, say two fur¬ rows, and middles with larger, but have them long and sharp Use turning in corn if foul to save hoeing, and the vegetation cov¬ ered will be a fertilizer. To many of the farmers of many this is no longer an experiment. Of course this is not but is from workology.

Note By Editor ; —The of doubling our crops as sugges¬ ted above by Mr. Reynolds is di¬ rectly antagonistic to present methods employed in plowing crops during the summer months. The agricultural editor has nev¬ er tried the plan suggested and would not advise its adoption ex¬ cept on a small scale and noting the results as compared with shallow culture in conformity with the regular adopted systems. An Alarm Clock for 25c. If you want to get up early and feel good all day take a Little Early Riser or two at bedtime. These famous little pills relax the nerves, give quiet rest and re¬ freshing sleep, with a gentle movement of the bowels about breakfast, time. W. H. Howell, Houston. 'Tex., says “Early Risers are the best pills made for con¬ stipation, sick headache, billiousness etc. Sold by Lewis Drag Co. Masonic Party. The second annual Masonic Ral¬ ly for the 2nd Congressional Dis trict was held in Albany on Wed¬ nesday and Thursday of this week. Judge I. A. Bush, W. M., of Camilla Lodge, accompanied by a good delegation, was in atten¬ dance from Camilla and reports a large attendance from over the district. These rallies are awakening a great deal of interest in the order all over southwest Georgia.
