FURNITURE
DEPARTMENT.

The Century Revolving
Bookcase could only be i'm
proved upon by the addition
of device which would hand
out or bring to you the vol
ume you require. 1t is solid,
elegant, convenient, and you'll
find the price right.
Whether it's because people
rent their houses by the month
instead of taking years lease.
or for some other reason, the
fact remains that house hunt
ing begins earlier now than it
used to. The first of April
saw many loads of goods trans
ferred from the old domicile
to the new, and that brings up
the subject of furniture. No
thing like "new wine in new
bottles" or new furniture in
new surroundings. If your
present house is smaller than
the one you left, the furnish
ings are probably too cumber-
some and give it a stuffy,
crowded appearance, like a six
year old boy in a baby's cradle.
If you've been impelled by
prosperity or convenience to
take larger place, perhaps you
need more furnishings. Here's
a hard wood Chamber Suit in
3 pieces. Couldn't be bought
much over $4,000 without be-
ing dear. At $3.50, though,
it's making every dollar put
into it worth about CSC more
in purchasing power.
Orders for that SIC double
caned Porch Rocker came in
so much faster than they could
be sent out that a congestion
resulted. But the channel is
clear now, a new lot having
arrived.

PARIS, Jan. ga correspondent of the

Pierre lie Grande, member of the Chamber
of Deputies andsex-mioister Of commerce,
on the subject OF the commercial
treaty negotiations between France and the
United States. In the course of the con-
versation NJ. lie Grande said II am opposed
on principle to treaties Of commerce, as l
consider them dangerous instruments for
government to handle, but if the ministry
has decided to enter iuto new con-
tracts in the face Of the clearly
expressed desire Of parliament to
the contrary. 1 win be happy to learn
of the conclusion of a treaty with the
United States. The friendly feeling per
soually entertain for America is we'll
known. Everything tending 60 increase
our commercial relations with America will
have my warmest approval. l believe that
France and the United States will profit
from reciprocity, for both are naturally
adapted to follow an identical policy in
economies as well as in politics.

The Outlook for the New Year an
Exceediu gly Bright One.
Fort VALLEY. GA. Jan. 3.-The outlook
for tie now year opens up somewhat
brighter in this section than was antsI>
pated two months ago. Trade is very dull,
but it is genearlly conceded that all OF the
white faTmers-st least a large percentage of
them-have sufficient means to run their
crops without credit, which fact was never
known before in this vicinity. But the
negro farm tenant has been about entirely
extinguished by the mortgage and credit
business. Fully IS per cent. of this class of
farmers will work this year for wages,
which fact rather enthuses a
majority of the land owners, for last year
the tenant system grew to such enormous
proportions that many white farmers were
unable to hire sufficient labor to run their
farms, but found no trouble in renting
every foot Of spare land they had to negro
tenants, which is one cause Of such large
cotton acreage in Georgia Negroes rented
land, bought mules. supplies ETC.. on credit
TO raise crop. This of course caused them
TO plant all the cotton they could IN
order to pay out II possible so they
could get advances another year The low
price OF cotton defeated their purpose. Con-
sequently the acreage in this section will be
less ened at least 40 per cont, this year.
Many prominent negro farmers are
hiring themselves for the year already,
though some have rented land and are
trying to get the supply merchants to run"
them, but they are meeting with little or
no success. The opinion generally is that
they will he forced to let the land they have
rented ''lay cut, and WORK for wages to
secure their meat and bread.
Under this status Of affairs item per
cent. clubs" will be useless in this section
as the cotton crop will be lessened by force
OF circumstances, AID many acres Of land
heretofore cultivated in cotton will remain
uncultvated in Houston county this year
This will greatly lessen the production OF
the staple at this point An effort has been
made by a speculative North Carolinian to
induce our farmers to plant tobacco, but
they do not take to the scheme with much
enthusiasm. The same effort has been
made in ether sections Of Georgia. and the
farmers around here reason that II farmers
in all the sections mentioned go into raising
tobacco there will be an over production.
From what information l can get from
our farmers, very few of them will go into
tobacco culture, but Will plant more Of the
necessaries Of life and less cotton, which, II
adhered 10, with the enormous fruit interest
around here will put this section of Georgia
in an excellent financial condition. Upon
the whole, the people OF this section, to q
man, are very hopeful for the future.

people do not seem to feel greatly concerned
over the fact that a Maryland man by q

teachings. It would not surprise them, l
hear, to learn that others have taken a

some intimation that the trustees have
learned that what they lose in this way,
they are more than likely TO get from
wealthy men who sustain them in their po-
sition in the Briggs matter.

that the reductions would be made up in

scale would be in force, but they are not
satisfied with this promise, aud the one
sentiment is that strike is inevitable. 1t
