QUIZ sTATus ANn OUTLOOK.

Pride OF town and county is as all
lowable in people as pride of State.
This is especially true Of a people who
can rightfully claim loyal, pushing
and progressive citizenry; and such,
we feel sure is true of Dawson and
Terrell county in her people. If here
and there, and now and then, a few
persons are found to the contrary, it
is nothing against her people gener-
ally speaking, since such are to be
found in every community. Let US
hope that such an element, wherever
found, may lessen every day.
Law and order ought to be the
motto of every people, since the per-
manancy OF social life, the
progress of business and the hap>
piness Of people grow out of and
are dependent upon such principles,
authorized and fostered by law and
good order.
We note with pleasure the gener.
al prosperity and contentment among
our people, growing largely cut of
this fact in their history. With good
homes, climate and soil, loving and
helping each other in business, using
diligence and every legitimate means
for prosperity, we find in such stat
us OF things the reason and hope for
stlil greater success ia the future.
Contentment in communities is as i'm.
portant as it is Ia families, and goes far
toward shaping and solving the future
character an and policy of the people.
MS fact is likewise a modern and
P'Vent agency in inducing and con-
"oi'lng the new element coming into
'ut city and county from other Sec
ma ~, nus swelling our population,
NV a'd'n9 in our general and increas
a. Prosperity, Such TACT, too. bears
a., 'y oFon our social interests. No
VI county can afford to ignore
o. overlook these facts, without b.i,g
o''a' or infdei to their best instincts
and interests.
a snch ne the status of our people
10 their moral aud business lite, what
may not her future be on all these
important lines of Interest," Let ever,

THE GUAA0 WASTE.

We don't know what else to call it,
Ghe farmers of the South have
wasted millions OF dollars on commer-
cial fertilizers. and it has become
a habit to use them.
Ii all this money had been vested
in building up the land with homes
made manures, the country would
have been rich now.
But the drain continues from year
to year--draining the lands OF their
natural strength by the use of highly
