The question that beads this article
has been often asked and often an
swered. 1t can and has been answered
/ both in the affirmative and negative.
Some men make farming pay While
other men make awful failures at the
business. Farming is like any other
oecApstion, it requires systematic man
agement TO result faYorably. Plans
must be laid after mature thought by
intelligent minds. The crop to be
planted should be considered before a
lick is struck towards preparation.
The number of acres to be worked,
the amount Of labor necessary, the
amount Of team and tools must all be
considered, not only this but the work
must be commenced in due time with
facilities to 90 forward without inter
rupton. Some men never plan out
their work and do not know one day
what they are going to do the next,
hence they drift on from day to day
and from year to year aud make a bare
living, complaining all the time that
farming don't pay, while their neigh
Dor makes fine crops, sells produce,
bnys land, builds and improves all the
time. Now it is the man who lays
bis plans well andexeentes them faith
fully that succeeds in farming, The
same results will obtain 10 any other
business. Farming is paying bust
ness when managed in the right way
but disastrous business when care
lessly managed. This has been a
profitable year for the farmer, and
good results have followed faithful
labor. We believe that in the main
farming does pay.

Leaves for the Scene of Suffering

Jndge w. Milo OIiD, OF Aue usia.
Leaves for the Scene Of Suffering
In Pensacola.
Our readers well and gratefully remember
the noble conduct OF Judge W. Milo DIN,
Of Augusta, during 1876 in Savannah, who
came here and did noble duty as nurse.
We all can picture his benign countenance,
beaming with love and sympathy, as he
ministered so intelligentlY to the sick in our
midst, day and night. He was and is a
moral hero. T. will be seen BY the follow
ing, from the Augusta Chronicle and ConStt
tlEtiondIiSt, that he has given his valuable
services to the afflicted of Pensacola. We
know that the prayers and good wishes Of
thousands of his Savannah friends will go
with him on his mission Of love and mercy.
The appeal TO Augusta for aid has been
answered 10 very substantial, and, as will
prove, very effective way. Once more
during the progress Of "the pestllence
which wasteth at MONDAY" Judge W. Milo
DIN has volunteered to go among the sick
and the suffering and contribute his cour-
age and experience to the stricken people
this time of the city of Pensaeola.s
Judge DIN left for Penssc ola last evening
in company with Mr.. John w. Taliaferro,
who Is also an experienced and faithful
nurse, and will at once enter upon the dis
charge of his delicate and important duties
there. Judge DIN bears the following let
ter:
MAYORS OFFICE, AUGUSTA, GA

gusta, occupying positions OF trust and

pleasure to 60 to the assistance OF afflicted
Sister cities. In yellow fever be has
vast experience. This, with his kindly

ton to what he coz ceives his duty. makes
him a most valuable acquisition to
any community suffering as is yours. |

much more Of good that will develop Itself

The regular meeting OF the Executive
Council OF the Citizens Sanitary Asso-
citation, which was held at Metropolitan
Hall last evening, was well attended, and
there was also present q number OF the
members Of the association, showing the in
terest that is felt IN the work Of the organi-
zation.
The meeting was very interesting, the
principal feature being the presentation OF
an important and carefully prepared
paper By the President, DR.. j. G.
Thomas, relating to sapelo quarantine
station and the functions Of the
National Board OF Health, giving thorough
and succiucs history OF that board, the
good that had been accomplished, and the
Importance OF its being sustained by Con-
gress. The reading OF this paper was is
tened 60 with deep attention, and its conelu-
sion was greeted with hearty applause.
A vote OF thanks was unanimously ten
dered the author By the Council.
A communication Was received from DR..
A. ii. Rome, editor of the Medical Chronicle,
of Baltimore city, requesting copies
Of the rules and regulations
Of the Citizens Sanitary Association OF
Savannah, and any documents formulated
IL
organize 8 sanitary auxiliary association In
thai city, and he desired to be guided by the
action OF this body.
Some important papers In reference to
house drainage and plumbing, with rules
and plans for the same, were presented by
committees, ard after discussion, were
adOpted and referred to the proper COM
mittee with power to make arrangements
Tor publishing the same in pamphlet form.
The association has alresdy accomplished
great good during IFS short career, and 1t Is
confidently anticipated that by the next
annual meeting I'm February the member
ship. which now numbers over three hun
dred, will be largely increased. 1t Is an
eeeocfafion which should have the hearty
support and announcement of every citizen
Who appreciates the importance OF I'M
proved sanitation, and they can show their
interest by making application for mem
bership.

The Annual Session OF the Sovereign
Grand lodge - Reports OF the
Grand Omcers Interesting Ex~
EPRCfR.

We have received, through the courtesy
Of our fellow citizen, Mr.. Thomas A. Askew,
Representative from the Grand Lodge OF
Georgia to the Sovereign Grand Lodge OF
the United States, in session at Baltimore,
copies Of the reports OF the Grand officers.
AS they contain much Of interest 10 the
fraternity generally we clip as follows from
them for the information OF the Savannah
brethren:
REPORT CT THE GRAND SIRE.
Grand Sire Of the Sovereign Lodge, LII
ther J. Glenn, opens his report with con-
graduation upon the progress OF the order
during the year 1881, then refers to TWO
memorable events which occurred during
the session Of 1S6l-the death Of President
Garfield and the death Of the Grand Secre-
tary of the order, the venerable and non
ored James L Ridgely, Of Baltimore. A
very interesting biographical sketch OF the
career of the Grand Secretary from the date
OF his initiation, MAY 9th, lo29, until the
close OF his life, 10th November, 1851, is
given, which ,Oses as follows:
But. nv brethren, he mas gone from our
midst His eloquent voice will no more be
heard IN our deliberations, the hand That
Welded the skillful pen IS cold in death;
| the heart that throbbed for others woes is
silent; we shall meet and grasp hands with
| him no more in the lodge room, or in the
ordinary walks OF life; but 1t is consoling to
ref ect that we may meet and mingle with
| him and others who have gone before, and
who Will follow US, away over the dark
river, under the green trees, where perpetual
spring and youth abound.
| CONDITION OF THE ORDER.
The country has been generally prosper
| Gus; the wheels Of industry have moved
| regularly; bountiful returns have crowned
| the labors OF the husbandman, and with this
| propltfous condition OF material affairs our
| order has fully mpathiZed. 1t Is proud
| tribute TO the intrinsic excellence OF Odd
| Fellowship to know that, despite the numer-
! Gus organizations that have sprung up
within q few years past, cur time hOnOred
institution mas not suffered, but that it is
| stronger and better to-day than at any
| former period 10 its history. For this as for
| all other favors and blessings vOuchsafed to
our beloved order by the Supreme Ruler of
| the universe. We should feel and render
| proper acknowledgements.
On application 10 the Grand Secretary, on
the 10Th OF August, for complete returns for
the year 1881, l was surprised TO learn that

Some Macon merchants have been put to
considerable inconvenience by the non
arrival Of q vessel a. Savannah, which left
LIVERPOOL about twenty-four days ago, and
was spoken oil Cape Hatteras fourteen days
since. The vessel contained large number

dence On Bryan street, near Jefferson, was
entered by burglar OF burglars, who made
an fnspe citing tour Of the sleeping rooms and
gathered up considerable booty, including
the apparel Of one Of the gentlemen in
mates. In his vest pocket was his watch,
which Is highly priced as a souvenir, and
no effort will be spared to discover
the perpetrators, and bring them to justice.
The robbery must have occurred after three
O'Clock, as some OF the inmates were out
after that hour, being detained by business,
and when they returned everything was In

On the 9th Of this month, at few
minutes after midnight, the moon will show
its full face. 1t IS the beautiful harvest
moon, and possesses special claims to the
distinction. For owing to the position Of
the ecl!pdc in regard to the equator at this
season, the moon rises for several cOnsecu-
tive nights with only a comparatively small
interval between the successive risings. The
short sutumnal days seem thus to be pro
Ionged by the floods of silverY moonlight
that make the night beautiful as day.
