The farmer who raises plenty
Oh corn will, also, have plenty Of
meat; and he is the man who will
prosper, while his neighbors must
need run in debt for something to
eat VIII > "
A good rain has fallen and we
may now look for the beginninso
OF spring. The cattle are needing
the nourishment early vegeta7
ton affords.
= Mr. Charles Deubler has trio
OF the most beautiful fowls-two
hens and cock-ever brought to
this city. They are Houdans and
came all the way from Ohio.
Charlie is great lover of fine
poultry,
Whew! the guano! 1t is being
hauled in, hauled out and all abouf
You can t look but to see it. Iii
really refreshing to ascend some
high point, out Of its reach, and
take fresh Whit of pure, unadul-
terated breeze.

Let everybody pull together
this year for the prosperity and
growth Of our town and county.
Talk up your town wherever YOU
60 and advertise v5ur business
and all will be well. We conf
IDENTIFY predict a successful bust
ness year.
There is absolutely no money in
growing cotton under the present
system Of farming. We believe
that if any farmer in this country
viii keep correct and honest
memoranda of the actual cost of
producing a cotton crop that
when the crop is sold the debit
account will be larger than the
credit.
We learn from one of the faith
full city fathers that it is quite
probable that the tax assessment
will Nll heavier this year than
usual in order to meet maturing
obligations next fall. Wouldn't it
be wise act to publish the finan-
cial status of our town? There
are many who would like to be
posted in these affairs.
Col. H. II. Jones. of the South
ern World, is now in the city tax
ing subscriptions for his valuable
paper. The World IS one of the
very best agricultural journals
published in the South, and Col
Jones one Of the cleverest OF edi-
tors. The price of the World is
only $L00, and should be in ev-
cry household in Terrell county.
Col. }. H. Query, our present
able solicitor, viii be candidate be
fore the next legislature for re-
election. We presume he will
be without opposition. Col. Guer-
ry is one Of the ablest and most
efficient solicitors in the state, and
is 50 recognized by all who know
him. His reelection to the Office
Of solicitor will be worthy ex-
preston of appreciation upon the
part CT the Georgia Legislature.
We are impressed with the
thought that there are those who
read the journal only to find bug
aboos. Bless your soul, dear
reader, the Journal would not,
knowingly, offend you for the
whole Of your earthly possessions.
Did you ever pause to think that
the fancied wrongs of life We're
much more numerous than the
real ones? Think of this, and,
possibly, it may lead you to be-
come more happy and charitable
in all your relations Of life.
Life, without little humor
dashed into It's bleak and icy PIMA
SEES, occasionally, must, indeed,
prove a dreary path-way-a des-
ert, chearless AMI cold. Yet, it is
dangerous for writer to wade far
cut into this revlyifying stream
lest his motives ba misunderstood |
