IT costs less to print advertise
ments than to send out statesmen. A
good advertisement is seen and read
by more people in one day than
most statesmen call on in one year
The JOURNAL is read by five thou,
sand people every week in the year
in this and adjoining counties, sec
tion of country from which you get
your trade, and it is to the interest
of Marietta merchants to advertise
and secure their share of that trade.
He who keeps his name the most
prominently before the public, is
bound to do good business. Ma
rietta merchants we ask each of you
to give us an advertisement, that we
may exhibit and herald abroad the
amount Of business done in our town
and show that we are no one-horse
place, but a thriving, live, enter
prising, and growing city, and there
by induce trade, capital and popula-
ton. You know it is to your inter-
est to have q good county paper,
and to be deprived of one would be
a reflection upon your intelligence
and literally. We now test your
sincerely of promised patronage,
if we owned the Office. If you
want us to succeed, then don't hold
back your patronage from US. You
have new goods in your store, then
tell the people Of it through our col
umns. Invite them to your store,
for people prefer to 60 where they
are invited, than to place where
they are not invited. Come, now,
assist us, SO we can give you pa
per unsurpassed in its excellence. -
Wesare working to build up Mars
eta and her enterprises, but your
railroads and schools are of no more
Importance than your local paper.
We ask your liberal and unstinted
support. Send us yonr advertise
ments for the paper. It is an ap-
peal to all. A few of our'norchants
have stood by us through thick and
thin, while others have withdrawn
their patronage, as good as to say
they didn't care whether Marietta
had a newspaper or not. Gentle
men, under its new management we
trust you will renew your favors.

NUT GRASS.

IL is alarming to see howsrapidly
the soscalled Nut Grass, or, rather as
they term it on the Mississippi, Coco,
is spreading in Georgia, particularly
as the mischief is conceded to be re-
NEEDLESS. The agricultural editor Of
the Mobile Register in answer to some
perquisitions Of "a correspondent for
the means OF destroying nut grass
says:
We say but little about nut grass
simply because we have but little to
say. It is disagreeable subject. If
nut grass can be destroyed without
first destroying the soil it is more
than we know. Hundreds Of persons
will give you plansf for its destruction
said never tofah, buty you will onstry!
ing them be apt to find them mere
theory, as they hayeeyer turned out
with Us. We have in mind q case in
Tennessee where a wealthy gentle
man (Hon. Ella Walker) kept for
several years standing offer Of $500
to any person who would clear an a.
ere garden patch ofnut grass. Sew
eral persons undertook the job, but
all failed - the nut grass still -four
ishes.
Most growths may BIO shaded to
death but not 80 with nut grass, which
BY the way, is sedge and not Q
grass at all. Yon may choke II down
with other growthe and keep it cbok-
ed down for years, until you think
itentirely gone then remove the diff
Guilty and upit will come as lively as
ever. We saw a fair illustration Of
this in our Blenyille Park last year.
"A music stand was erected over
what seemed to be only a heavy bed
Of Bermuda grass. The shade Of the
stand soon laid the Bermuda low and
imm ediately the nut grass filed it's
place and grew up az thick as hair
on o dogs back. How long the nut
grass had bcenheld under blythe Ber-
muda we are unable to say ~ for mes
ny years, perhaps. One may keep
nutigrass well down by hog power Ia
winter and careful working in SUM.
mer,, but in cases where it ia, well
seeded, we could hardly hope to get
rid Of It without first putting the soil
id 4 condition disqnallifying II for the
sustenance Of any species ofplsns life.
