ONIONS.

ITO illustrate: know farmer who
lives less than 20 miles from Atlanta
who determined to plant an acre in on
ions instead of in cotton. The result
amazed him. 1t is fact that many of
the commission men here know to be
true that he sold in one year $500 worth
of onions off that acre. If anything,
the labor of cultivation was less. The
cost of getting the sets was probably a
little greater than the cost of cotton
seed, but look at the result. 1t is
good acre of land that will produce
bale of cotton. 1t is the exception. A
bale of cotton isn't worth more than
$50. This man with the very best re-
suits in cotton would have received $40
less profit on his one acre if he had put
it in cotton. The onions can be plant
ed close together in rows. and the rows

that is catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure

Dillon Boys in Trouble.

Salina Republican: An interesting
souvenir Of the '6Os came to view
yesterday. Some boys came into +,
l.. Whittier's grocery store the night
before to get twenty dollar bill
changed. Warren Whittier took the
bill and handed over the change.
Upon inspecting ii afterwards he
found that il wasn't a $40 bill ut all
but an old state scrip without seal or
signature. 1t was a Missouri defense
bill, probably issued at the time of
Prices raid, and called commonly
prices raid scrip The paper is
more valuable as u souvenir Of the
memorable raid, when the city Of ST.
Louis was terrorized by the approach
of the confederate general, than as
money, the posscssor not thinking it
to be worth 500
1t seems that two boys, Louis
Conner and VIM. Mcbride, who live
near Dillon. brought the bill with
them and sent it up in care of Chas.
Davis to get it changed. Whittier
Just glanced at the bill, saw the
twenty and handed out the change.
He did not discover the swindle until
yesterday, when he hunted up the
boys. The young man, Conner,
would have been arrested, but upon
being called upon decided to turn
over the money. Then by the con-
sent of all parties, the bill which had
caused so much trouble was burned.
The young man from Dillon is lucky
in getting of so easy.
