That Monument Atlanta’!
Pickpocket j Shoots Himself
PRICE *1.00 A YEAR
The Confederate' monument
now being- placed on Broad street
in front of the Commercial Hotel
in beautiful seeing distance from the
Courier. We insist that another
tombstone be placed in tbe middle
of that square to make it eymmetri-
cal—not that we are overly fond of
tombstones, to be sure, but if we
are going to have a tombstone row,
let’s have one right. That monu
ment should be mode to look dean
though.
Just before they dedded to move
that monument to Broad street,
prominent matble dealer was up
here wanting the back yard of tbe
Courier and the house next to us for
his tombstone yard. Why not let
him put it in the park between the
other two. We are going to see if
we can’t get him to put a nioe slab
on each side of the door, one in the
window and a spire on top. It would
indeed be beautiful to have a nice
straight shaft put on tbe campus
with an apple on top of it in mem
ory of the late lamented Adam. We
would suggest one of Eve, but tbey
would want to dike her out in the
latest fashion, but to onr mind the
simple fig leaf would be more pre
ferable and not near so suggestive.
Be that as it may there are other
places in Athens that need tomb
stones around them more than the
Courier, but they don’.t want to put
there because it might hit the
nail on tbe head to hard, as snre as
you live.
Well, we’ll keep you warm.
About the only good thing about
these tombstones is that we will get
used to looking at them and when
we come to a graveward we will not
•ve the oreepings up the back like
ie of you.

Georgia. This year the las
swine owners of the etate on account
of its ravages will mount well into
the hundreds of thousands of dol
lars. The farmers ot the South are
just realizing the benefits which tbey
may derive from a well developed
swine industry and eucb losses as
have been suffered this year are in
deed discouraging and inclined lo
make farmers of effected sections
loee interest in hog raising. In
many localities entire herds have
been wiped out and in others the
percentage of loss ha been high.
The writer during the past sum
mer has visited many counties in
which the disease wa or had b
prevalent and the reports from
the various farmers interviewed were
very similar and strongly pointed
out the fact, already well known
by veterinarians and well informed
stockmen, that medicinal treatment
of hog cholera with home remedies
and proprietary preparations is
comparative failure.
On tbe other hand reports from
thoee who have used H -g Cholera
Serum on their herds are uniformly
good. In many instances serum
wa used a a preventive measure,
an insurance, so to speak, on herds
in localities in which the disease
was prevalent and theee herds es
caped without lore. In many casee
it wa used on herds after tbe disease
has gained a foothold and reports
from its use in such instances are
surprisingly good, a frequently no
more hogs were ioet after the sururn
wa administered. The bat results
are gained when the serum is used
u preventive and uot as curative
treatment.
Hog Cholera Serum is made from
the blood of hogs hyperinutuized to
cholera. It contains nothing but
tbe defibrinated blood of a hyper
immune hog and a small amount of
chemially pure phenol added
simply a a preservative. When
properly administered it cannot in
jure auy hog.
Hog Cholera Serum is made by
the Veterinary Department, State
College ot Agriculture, Athens, Ga.,
and is furnished to Georgia farmers
only, at cat oi production (2k c. c
oubio antimeter.) The does Is 20
