The Dawson journal., 1884-11-06

properly managed will make any
farmer in Terrell county rich in
ten years. 1t is a mistaken idea
that the more land a man has the
richer he is.
All who propose to '@turn over a.
new Leaf and propose to begin
the new year with fresh leaf
should not fail to pay their sub
scription to the JOURNAL before
the first Of January next.
Let the farmers now determine
that their provision and proven
der supplies shall be raised at
home, and Terrell county will be
one of the very best agricultural
sections of Georgia.

Let the good work go on. The hog
and dog are both a nuisance and
should be suppressed.
A negro voted his tax receipt at
this precinct last Tuesday. 1t
would be much better for the
country if all Of them would vote
that way--at least the school fund
would be considerably increased.
It would pay our farmers to
improve their breeds of hogs.
These piny oods rooters, with a
snout like bblltongle plow and
a tail like a COW, should be either
improved upon or done away with
altogether. a
Ithas been proven til they were
not true prophets who predicted
that the cotton crop of Terrell
would be harvested by the 10Th of
Oct. lis now the first of November
and there is some cotton yet to be
gathered.
Just before going to press we
found a love letter that was lost
by one Of our young men, We
will publish it next week and then
either he or she can get it by call
ing at our Office and fully estab-
fishing claims.
Farmers need no longer be told
that oats, corn and meat are to be
the salvation of this country. The
farmer who runs this schedule
for five years will not only pay
out of debt, but he will be abso-
lutely Independent. Try it.
"The correct young man this
winter says a society item, twill
not be dude, but will be stately
and intellectual looking" We
publish this item in order to nip
i'll the bud the crop of dudes that
are now budding in this city.
A young man of our town who,
by the way, has blonde mustache
and wears a number nine shoe, is
now conducting a correspondence
with a young lady of distant
town on postal cards. The one
we saw was well, we won't tell
what n
AL of our people have returned
from the State Fair at Macon
highly pleased with their trip.
They report fine displays in every
department.. 1t was undoubtedly
one of the finest exhibitions Of
Georgia's products and industry
ever given. Ea .
Mrs. Lockwood didn't get sin
gle vote iu the county. Ifshe had
taken our advice and come down
here AMI let some of our young
men ride behind her on her ri
cycle she would have carried this
precinct Overwhelmingly. Blu
the opportunity is lost
Mrs. Bryan has moved fro an
our town to her farm, q few mile5
in the country. Mr.. o. G. Rob
inson now occupies her residence
here. Mrs. Harden having b 1usht
the house in which Mr.. Robinson
lived, viii move to town and open
a boarding house, We learn.
Rev. Mr.. Stansbury, who CON
ducted a protracted meeting here
last summer, occupied the BaP-
tist pulpit here last Sunday morn
ing and evening. His discourses
were very able and complete with
logic. He will serve the Baptists
at Perry another year as pastor
Although we are no farmer, we
think wn give GOOD, sound advice
