Tho woman who starts out on a mission of this klul in Georgia is liable to lose her false teeth and a strand or two of bait. Almost on the ove of elcoUon England is threatened with a naval scandal. It is charged that the wife, sons and doughs Urs of Joseph Chamberlain, secretary of state for thu colonies, hold nearly all hef tho stock in the firm of Hoskins’ Bonn, contractors to the admiralty. J, Austen Chamberlain, tho secretary’s eldest son, who is a civil lord of the ad miralty, Is satd to bo one of the largest stockholders, while there are no H il kins in the tl(w. Chamberlain "declines *o notice” the charge. As it is eatd Chamberlain is to be minister of '“■yy the new cabinet, the charge has ntlrtod up the poll'teal caldron. CASSAVA CULTIVATION. Some startling figures were recently given to the people of Brunswick on the profits of cassava growing. It Is claimed that cassava, consider ing all its varied usee, is probably the most profl'ab'e field crop, In any coun try where it will mature, that a farmer can plant. It is said to be a crop re quiring It ss labor and expense to make than cotton or corn. When the seed once sprouts and takes root a crop is assured whether the seaaon be wet or dry. The plant is Indigenous to Cental America and' drouth retards ,its growth but little. It is not subject to the ravages of worm, fly, bug or bird; it has nttenemies. It yields enormously,—ten tons and up ward per acre; Cassava requires less fertilizing than any other field crop. Its branching top and dense foliage quickly shades the ground preyenting the further growth of grass aDd weeds, and it requires no further attention until the root ts ready to harvest: The top Is worthless except for seed and fertilizer; nothing will eat It, hence there Is no Incentive for stock to break into a cassava field. Alt kinds of stock eat the root greedily, prsfering it to com, and being very rich in starch its fattening properties are great. It will no doubt encourage the' plant ing of castava by our farmers If we make tome comparisons with corn which is now the stock food of ' -... America, at well as the product ffom which nearly all commercial s'arch Is obtained. Corn contains sixty per cent starch and cassava about twenty per cent. Ten tens of cassava, a minimum yield per acre, will produoe 4,000 pounds ol starch. Thirty bushel* of corn, wlttch is a filr yield <per acre, will produce M&0 pounds mf starch. It Is -a safe proposition to assume .that one aore of cassava jrilj produce more starch and -teftd and fatten * more live stock than four acres of corn. Asa market crop, If casiava it grown where it can be delivered at small cost to a starch no doubt command a price Jffijpa japi prove very satisfactory and remtmrra live than any ' thwpßPfeop. There ts no longer any doubt as to the great value of this plant to the south ern farmer. All we hate said is sub stantiated by the reports of Professor Wiley ol the U. De partmtnt at W by Professor Siockbrldge, of the Florida btate Agricultural College of Laid City, Fla., and by the propla in whose interests this subj ct wa* rrdbntly brought prominently before our cltl zeus, who have expended much tme in studying the growth of ca save throughout too eofithern stales, in gathering the testimony and experiscce uf olhers concerning it, familiarizing themselves with Its culture and u* a in. Central America and tha West Indie , and who by chemical analysis b >v. discovered the wonSirful nnl varied p-operlics of this plant whioh is del lined icon to become the principal fie and crop ef the south. The soil and climate of Bronswle.. and vicinity Is known t" H- u i growing cassava in ? . rf.ct oa. aod cut fa>-ratrs w.ll be wise if they sect-tj ,0.l and plant a largo acreage t.tx MACON's STRDIT FAIR There is a gala time in Mwcon this week, the occasion being the sited fair, THE BRUNSWICK TIMES-CALL, SEPTEMBER 27,1900. and from reports we are inclined to think that even the managers of this event are surprised at its great suc cess. Expositions and fairs not only do the city in which they are given a great deal of good, but the whole state is always benefltted, and any man who has the welfare of Georgia at heart should en courage such movements. Athens and Columbus are next to have street fairs, and the TimxsCaj.l sin cerely hopes that each will be as suc cesaful as Macon. • c- . - The historic Alabama was sunk, by the Kearsarge off Cherburg, France, on June 19, 1864, thirty-six years ago. If sit that time it bad been said that a gen eration later a member family of* Capt, Sommes.’the widow of , Jefferson Davis, and the goventor.oP the state Of. Alabama would come together in f’orts moutb, N, H., with representatives -ol the United States government^im-jointly bestowing tablets ou twonew. vessels -of the United States naVy, ealled, respec „ < ',rt. , lively, the Alabama ajpul Ifcarsaqp. an# that this event woffid be of theuaiifinre of “a love feast, the statement yrould have beep Sonsidered absurdly impossi ■ hie.—Boston Herald. The fiMES-CALL will, from time to time, print articles on cassava. There is no doubting the that money can be made on it, and as we axe always de sirous of helping the farmer, hence the articles. Make your wife think it is the style to reach the theatre a half hour before the curtain rises. Late comers show the& pretty drearej all right enough, but it is very inconvenient to be disturbed by them. ? ~ / • : -i Vft.. i ■- HOW’S THIS ?

The animal may be taught to bow by tapping him on the back with a whip. He bends his bead In trying to avoid the annoyance.

To teach a horse to say “No” a pin is fastened to the butt of the whip. A slight scratch is given to the horse's withers, about where the collar would be. At this he shakes his head and soon, learns to shake it whenever he sees the butt of the whip coming near his withers. The trainer teaches the animal "to kiss” by feeding him with apples from ffioulh, gradually lessening the size Of the apples till the horse does the trick without any, or be puts salt, of Which horses are very fond, oh his -Cheek, and the animal naturally ticks it off.
