DGn'f Grow Ginseng,

There is pretty story going the
rounds of how a certain grower made
$4,000 in FIVE years from one acre
Of ground. growing ginseng. The
story sounds very Ike others emanat-
Ing from the man who yearly has some
wonderful new plant the seed of which
he offers at a high price. The true
facts concerning ginseng are, in sub
stance, as follows: 1t grows naturally
in the mountainous regions of Penn
sylvania, New York and the South, but
under cultivation it has not proved a
successful venture to those who have
tried it, for it will not grow in sun
shine or dly places, and no coaXing
can make it grow. OF course few
farmers have soil and location sim
liar to the mountainous home of the
plant.-Atlanta Journal

A man in the neighborhood of Mar
ion, Penn, shot a screech owl, and,
believing there was bounty ON birds
Of that kind, took it to Justice OF the
Peace to make the proper affidavit. The
Justice assured him that there was not
only no bounty on the screech owl, but
that on the contrary there was a pen
atty of IS for shooting one. The Jus
hce said that he WAS sorry, but, as the
man had confessed to the violation of
the law. he had no alternative but to
impose the fine.
