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. When Atlanta is not doing some thing to keep that old town in*the limelight it is a warm day in Feb ruary This time it is Chief '.of Police Beavers, who Las issued' an edict that all the immoral bouses must go; that all the cheap .shows must keep a watch, that hotels wbiob are run for immoral purposes must cease to do that kind H business, must quit and that at The men’s religious'] movsment has been after this very! thing for quite awhile, but the chief topk all the responsibility on himself and You never aw such crowds a attending the tent services now _ log held on tbs Orr lot by the 4 r ~ Mr. Neighbour.

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 o. o. per hundred pounds live weight for hogs notin infected herds, and What has become ot oar states men in congress? Is it poaible that they are ex- tinefc. The recent law of congress requiring newspapers to mark each write-ap “adv.’’.looka in tfaeeyaof the people a a pretty email potato Here are some things that it doa: if Mire Anybody sends us in a basket of tomatoes that tiut ha raised with her own hapds, and ws ay so in oar columns then we must mark the little notia that we gave her "adv.” If a farmer hu an unusually large tnroip that he is proud ot snd brings it to onr office, and not car ing to take it back, lava it with Now be used extra and new means to bring this turnip np to the necessary proficiency, and we tell the people how he did It, became he left that turnip with ns, we mnet mark the write up “adv.” And the same thing must happen when a good lady happens to send , a mew of greens or potatoes that abe is apecally proud of. If a min gives ns a ticket- to a five-eent show and we got to see it and ay it is good or had for that matter it must be marked “adv.” If We get a ticket to the Georgia- Tech game and come back we must ay, “Rsh! Rth! Georgia—adv.” This simply shows you that con gress had better keep at tbe weight ier matters liefore it, for when they try to regulate a man’s private busi ness and now into it, and cause him to make it public, it’s getting out of it’s element.
