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. This remedy never fails. Keep it in your home, it may save life. For sale by Lewis Drug Co. 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.
