A TIN PLATE LIE.

few days since appeared in the col
umns of the Alliance Review, paragraph
stating that 1.-THE firm of Oby & Love had
just received the first box of American
made tin plate that ever came to ALI
ance.n Great Grover! And this state
ment in the face of the fact that Mr.. Side
Wheel Bowers, the immaculate clerk of
this same firm, had busted himself during
the last campaign in exhibiting arti-
cles of tinware to his customers
which he assured them had been made
from pure and unadulterated american
tin" And then too, at the Mckinley
meeting in this city, he had the front Of
that store literally plastered with sheets
of american tin" by way of decoration.
There is evidently a lie out, and some
body has told it. Have we found the tin
plate liar? And we had always innocent
ly supposed that Republicans wouldn't
lie, especially in political campaign!
AN OLD LANDMARK GONE.
John C.. Haidet, an old and respected
citizen of Alliance, died at II o'clock last
night at his residence, on Ely avenue.
For several years he had been a sufferer
from asthma, and complication of dis
eases, finally eliminating in heart disease,
from which cause he died. Deceased had
just completed his SEVENTEEN year,
iyersary. He was native of Belford,
France, and came to this country at the
age of 16 years. He located in this county
near Strasburg and all the balance of his
life has been spent in this community
where he has been held in universal
esteem. About three years ago he pur-
chased the A. L. Jones property on Ely
avenue, where he has since resided. He
leaves a wife, four sons and four daugh-
ters, all grown to man and womanhood,
to inherit a very handsome estate. De-
ceased was the uncle OF Mrs. Phil. Aikens
of this city.

About Cow Peas.

1t is great mistake to assume
that because peas will grow on poor
land that therefore they should re
ceive no manure of any kind. On
the contrary, believe that the prop
err fertilizers applied to a preparato-
nv pea crop will yield much better
results in the following crop of
wheat, oats, corn or cotton than if
withheld from the peas and applied
directly to the succeeding crop.
As rule, all worn soils are def
cient in phosphoric acid and many
of them need potash. These two
elements, then, should be used when
fertilizing for a luxuriant crop of
COW peas on thin land. Peas will
grow on land "too poor to sprout
cow peas" as the old saying is; but
on every thin especially sandy, soils
the Weld is scant and unsatisfactory.
My experience and observation
teach me that phosphoric acid is the
most general effective element in
fertilizing peas; potash less so; and
even nitrogen will prove beneficial
on some soils.-R. j. Redding il
Southern Cultivator.
The weekly Floridian. [volume] (Tallahassee, Fla.) 1867-19??, 1891-10-17

is. however, still room for improve
ment.
To reduce the cost OF cotton we
mnst raise more home supplies. We
must give more attention TO what
might be called the by-products OF
the farm, for these by-products often
turn out, under proper management,
to be greater source OF revenue
than the principal product.
We desire to make change and
grow all crops that will enable us to
live at home. We have land plenty.
Labor is scarce and dear; therefore,
we cannot make cotton and buy eve
rything else and do without the sher-
iff much longer. Anything from the
editor in the way Impractical advice,
will be thankfully received.-S. b.

Deafness Can't be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portions of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness and
that is by constitutional remedies. Deaf
ness is caused by an intlamed condition
of the mucous lining Of the Eustachian
Tube. When the tube gets inflamed you
have rumblng sound or imperft ct hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed deaf
ness is the result, and unless the inf1am'
nation can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition hearing
will be destroyed forever. Nine cases
out of ten are caused by catarrh, which
IS nothing but an inflamed condition OF
the mucous surfaces.
We will give one hundred dollars fol
any case of deafness Caused by catarrh,
that We cannot cure by taking Halls Ca
tarrh Cure. Send for circulars free.

For Mr.. Oppenheimer or any other

grown in Leon county and we know
