$2,000,000 FROM PEACHES.
Georgia Growers Have Coine
In for a Bunch of Money.
Two millions of dollars have
been turned loose among the
peach growers of Georgia dur¬
ing the season .just closing, says
the Savannah News. This is
more than double the record for
nny previous year and the feel¬
ings of the lucky fruit growers
can be easily imagined
The Central of Georgia handles
over 95 per cent, of peaches from
the Fort Valley and Marshall -
ville district, where the early
crop is gathered. It is estimated
that this road has handled 1,800
carloads of peaches from that
territory this season, and that
all other roads handled about
200 more. In the north Georgia
district, where the season is still
on, the Central handles less than
half. Including the shipments
probable for the coming week,
which will practically close the
season in Georgia, it is estimated
that a total of something over
2,000 cars will have been shipped
from that section of the state
Combining the production of
the two peach growing sections,
it will be seen that the total will
be over 4,000 cars.
'Each car will average 500
crates, making ajtotal of 2,000,000
crates. On a conservative esti¬
mate, the growers netted $1 per
Crate, after deducting all ship¬
ping charges. From this sum,
of course, they had to pay their
help and the cost of production.
During the height of the sea¬
son the Fruit Growers’ Express
used a thousand tons of ice dail.\
to ice the cars.
In addition to the shipments
in carload lots, the crates sent by
express, if consolidated, would
fill several cars.
These being shipped mostly
early in the season, of course
brought much higher prices.
The tig yield in north Georgia
was due to the great increase in
acreage, this year bringing into
service many thousands of trees
for the first time.
The great bulk of the peach
crop from this stite went to the
eastern markets. The western
markets depend largely on Ar¬
kansas, Texas and Missouri, and
on account of the shorter dis¬
tances these states do nearly all
their business, though the crop
comes in considerably later.
Taken With Cramps,
Win. Kirmse, a member of the bridge
gsng working near Littleport was tpken
suddenly ill Thursday with cramps and
a kind of cholera. His case was so se¬
vere that he had to have the members of
the crew wait upon him and Mr. Gifford
was called .uid consulted. He told them
he had a medicine in the form of Cham
berluin's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remeday that he thought would help
him out and accordingly several doses
were administered with the result that
the fellow was able to be around next
day. The incident speaks quite highly
of Mr, Gifford's medicines.—Elkader,
Iowa, Argus.

A Little Story.
A pretty story comes from
New York. In that city was
Katie Schwartz, as sweet as a
bunch of roses, and only 12 years
old, says an exchange. Charles
Schmidt, a drunken and rather
worthless ’long-shoreman and a
police court that would scare the
very wits out of the average lit¬
tle girl. Charles was arrested
and clapped into a cell. Over to
the Schwartz house went Mrs.
Schmidt, weeping and wailing.
There were babies at home, no
food in the house and a husband
ripe for a term in the work¬
house. “In God’s name what
shall I do?” she cried. Katie
told her mother that she was go¬
ing to see the police judge, be¬
cause, in her young mind, she
could see the punishment was
going to fall on the innocent fam¬
ily, instead of on its guilty head.
So she tied her hat on under her
chin, kissed her mother: good¬
bye and tripped away to the po
lice court. She was a little bit
afraid, but somehow she got in
front of the bar and made this
speech:
“Your Honor: Drink has al
most ruined this man. If you
send him to jail the disgrace will
break his wife’s heart. We will
pay his fine. You don’t know
about the life of a ’longshoreman.
It is very rmgh and there is lots
of temptation. My papa is one,
and he drank until I got him to
stop- I have seen many men
Who were reformed by their
wives. Don’t disgrace Mrs.
Schmidt by sending her husband
to jail. I’m sure Mr. Sehmid’t
will do better.”
And the judge rescinded the
jail sentence and imposed a very
light fine, and Charles Schmidt
went home to his wife, at least a
more thoughtful man,
That is all—all of the story;
but it points a moral, or at least
furnishes the opportunity for re¬
marking that there can be no won¬
der that there are so many good
wives and mothers in the world
when mere children are playing
humanity’s part.
The Death Penalty.
A little thing sometimes results
in death. Thus a mere scratch,
insignificant cuts or puny boils
hove paid the death penalty. It
is wise to have Bucklen’s Arnica
Salve ever handy. It’s the best
Salve on earth and will prevent
fatality, when Burns, Sores, Ul¬
cers and Piles threaten. Company’s, Only
