A. r.. II.
Put the sheep into a fresh pas

Leave them out on the hills at
night except during cold rain

pine tar. Give plenty of salt and
oil meal. and a little ginger in the
feed two or three times per week.
If the cough is very bad, give d
little digitalis and tartar emetic in

"IF WE KNEW."

II we knew the woe and heart-ache
Waiting for us down the road,
If our lips could taste tire worm-woodi
If our backs could feel the load;
Would we waste the day in wishing
For n time that ne'er can be;
| Would we wait in such impotence
For our ships to come from sea.
If we knew the baby-fingers
Pressed against the w~indow-pane
Would be cold and stiff tomorrow
Never trouble us again;
Would the bright eyes of our darling
Catch the frown upon ON brown
Would the print of rosy tigers
Vex MS then rs they do nowf
All, those little ice cold fingers,
How they point our memories back
To the hasty words and actions
Strewn along our backward track!
How those little hands remind us,
As in snowy grace they lie
Not to scatter thorns-but roses
For our reaping by and by!
Strange we never prize the music
Till the sweet-voiced bird has flown
Strange that We should slight the violets
Till the lovely flowers are gone;
Strange that summes skies and sunshine,
Never seem one half so fair
AS when winters snowy pinions
Shake the white down in the air!
Lips from which the seal of silence
None but God can roll away,
Never blossomed in such beauty
As adorns the mouth to-day;
And sweet words that freight our memory
With their beautiful perfume,
Comes to us in sweet accents,
Through the portals of the tomb.
Let us gather up the sunbeams
Lying all along our path;
Let us keep the wheat and roses,
Casting out the thorns and chaff;
Let us find our sweetest comfort
In the blessings of to-day;
With a patient hand removing
All the briars from our way.

Raising Sheep i'm Georgia.

A writer i'll the Atlanta (Ga.)
Constitution says that in 1871 he
bought 400 acres of reputed poor
land in Glynn county, Georgia,
and put upon it 100 sheep. In
1873, by natural increase, he had
376 ewes, and had sent to market
70 wethers. His sheep we're penn
ed nightly, and every two nights
MANFRED "a halt acre well. Since
that time he had brought into a
high state of cultivation 100 acres
of land that seven years ago was
considered worthless. Since 1871
he has bought 200 sheep, and now
owns 1900 head. He keeps a shep-
ard, who is paid to attend to his
business, and keeps an accurate
book account of the sheep; and
finds, by casting up a balance sheet
that it costs him exactly 81 cents
per annum to keep his flock. They
average him about 81 pounds of
wool each. Last year he clipped
in May, and again in September,
and the clip amounted to 81 per
head. Last year he sold in Savan-
nah and Macon 5000 pounds of
wool, at an average of 30 cents per
pound, including a few pounds of
merino wool, which makes the gross
receipts 5000. The annual ex-
pense of the flock was $1026. So
there was an absolute net profit in
the wool of 1864. Last year he
sold in the above cities so wethers
as mutton for $342, making "a total
Of $3.50. Besides this, he has
fertilized the poor wire grass land,
so that last year he cultivated 81
acres, and from Al acres in corn
he made an average of 81 bushels;
10 III sugar cane, that made Sc
barrels i'll syrup; Is in oats, that
average 43 bushels to the acre, and
on the remainder an abundance of
all kinds of truck farming, receiv-
ing for his sales of vegetables in
New York a net profit of 1924.

NEW LIE
COTTON GIN
COTTON PRESS,
Sugar Mill aiad Machinery
Over $1,000 Eagle Cotton Gins
HAVE BEEN SOLD!
Great Reduction in Prices.
ONLY SO SO A SAW.

The attention Of Cotton Factors and
Planters is called to the superior merits OF
the Improved EAGLE COTTON GINS.
These Eagle Gins are the Standard Cot
ton Gins, far ahead of all Others N work
manship and durability, and make a sam
pie of cotton which always brings the
| highest market price. The New Orleans
Cotton Exchange paid thirty cents a
pound for a bale of cotton ginned on the
Eagle Cotton Gin, and sent the bale to the
Centennial Exhibition as the lest bale of
cotton over brought to this market The st.
Louis Fair has awarded $1,000 premium to a
bale of cotton ginned on the Eagle Cot
ton Gin. At the Centennial Exhibition
the committee decided the Eagle Gin was
far superior to all Others.
No higher prizes have ever been award
ed to any gin in the world than have been
awarded to the EAGLE, it having re-
ceived, in one instance, the high prize of
$l250 in gold (by the Agri-Horticultural
Society of Calcutta) in il competition open
to all nations.
The manufacturer of the Eagle Cotton
Gin commenced in 1888, since which time
nearly twenty thousand have been made
and sold. The largest planters of the
Mississippi Valley have always given the
Eagle Gin tho preference. They know
they are always a reliable gin, NEVER
FAILING TO GIVE THE MOST PER
Feet SATISFACTION. All who use the
Eagle Cotton Gin will certify to the fact
that when their cotton is sent to market
it always brings the very highest market
prices, AS no other gin can produce a finer
or better sample of cotton than the Eagle
Cotton Gin.
This extensive use of these Gins is the
result, entirely, of the merits of the ma
chimes themselves, the manufacturers
never having expended any money in set
ting forth their merits in expensive adver-
tiseMents or illustrated catalogues, with
long array of certificates, much prefer
ring that each purchaser shall be the sole
judge of, the merits of the machine he
has purchased.
The prices of the Eagle GIN having
been reduced to 50 so a saw, makes them
the cheapest as well rs the best Gin in the
market. All the saws of the Eagle Gin
are II inches in diameter, making them
equal to one-iifth more capacity than
other gins of only 10-inch WI The
Eagle Gins of SO saws are equal to a GO
saw gin of l0-inch cylinder; a 10 saw
Eagle Gin is equal to an 90 saw gin OF
other makes-thus being the cheapest cot
ton gin III the market.
The undersigned has now had the Agen-
cy of the Eagle Cotton Gin Company for
years, and during this long period has
never had an Eagle Cotton Gin returned,
and no complaints eycr made of their
working. These facts prove that in pur-
an Eagle Cotton Gin the planter
runs no risk. He is NOT OBLIGED TO
TRY AN EXPERIMENT OF INTRODU- |
cling AN UNTRIED GIN, but obtains in
the Eagle Cotton Gin the best gin-stand
in the market-one that has stood the
test for forty-fve years, and is considered
1T the present time the most reliable and
gin made.
