lam clearly of the opinion that the

wrong and misleading. For instance,
we have registered in this department
some 1900 brands, when in reality we

reason that the multiplicity OF orands

said oil TO be below the safety test re-

the various inspectors of the state ms
spect properly and scientifically the oils
that pass through their hands; ana l
hope when the legislature meets 1T Will
give us such laws as will more fully and
amply protect the people in this state.
REGARDING THE CROPS.
| regret to say that in many parts OF
our state we have had no rain for from
eight to nine weeks, sand in some sec
tions the corn crop, 1t would appear,
will be almost a failure. The cotton is
quite small. but with good seasons from
now on we may have fairly good crop.
| urge our farmers to commence at the
earliest moment to save all the forage
they can, in order to help out the short
crop, and early in the season they should
put in plenty of oats and wheat that IT
may not be necessary to buy feed stuff
next spring and summer.
La conclusion, let me again urge IpOn
the farmers of Georgia to continue the
reform in our system of farming. We
should by all means raise everything
posi- BILE that is used upon the farm,
thereby making our cotton crop sur
Plus.
RAISE OWN PROVISIONS.
Let us make one more desperate effort
to raise our own provisions and compost
our own fertilizers and breed our own
stock, and so far as posi- BILE pay cash for
what we buy. We cannot afford to buy
provisions at time prices and raise cot
ton to sell at the present market value.
This means ruin to the farm erS and will
hold IN check the progress Of our entire
state. You will note in each community
that toe farmers who prosper are the
corn raisers, the men who raise their
own supplies and make cotton a surplus
crop. | therefore earnestly urge you to
adopt this system and provide on your
farm the things that are used at your
home. When we have accomplished
this we will have reached the point of
prosperity, and not only will the farmers
be benefited, but every class of people in

COMMISSIONER OF AGRICULTURE
ISSUES MONTHLY TALK.
Saws Corn Crop Is Almost a Failure.
Urges Farmers to Make Cotton
Surplus Crop. Too Many
Brands of GuanO.


Commissioner O. B. Stevens Friday
morning issued partial report OF the
work accomplished by the department.
of agriculture since last fall, the time
he assumed the duties of commission
err. The report i'll full is OF consldera>
BILE length, and IS devoted principally
to fertilizers and oils.
The report, which is IN the nature
of monthly talk to the people OF the
state, urges upon the farmers contln-
nance of the reform system of farming
and chat everything used upon the
farm should be raised at home. The
commissioner further urges that the
cotton crop be made a surplus, ana
calls upon the farmers to make one
more desperate effort TO raise their
own provisions.
He mentions the fact that owing to
the great need of rain the corn crop is
almost failure in many sections of
the state,
Commissioner Stevens, in touching
upon the question of oil inspection in
the state, reviews the recent investi-
CATION and alludes to the fact that one
of the crying necessities of the system
of inspection is the appointment of an
oil inspector for the state at large,
whose duty shall be to overlook the
work and records of the local inspec-
tors.
The report also tells of the excellent
system of bookkeeping inaugurated in
the department by which all lniorma~
tion desired by the public can readl-
ly be gained.
For want of sufficient means with
which to do the work of the depart
ment" says the commissioner, 1--WE
have been handicapped to some extent.
However, the records are III such shape
that any matter pertaining to this Of
fee can be fully and perfectly UNDER
stood, and every item that comes into
the department or goes out of 1t is fully
accoun ted for | believe that the pub
lie is Untitled to know what this de
partment of the state government is
doing"
In part, the report is as follow;
ON QUESTION OF FERTILIZERS.
Having had some thirty years ex-
perience in the use of fertilizers, and
having some knowledge of the ingre
dients which go TO make up these mix
lures, | have done my best to see that
consumers are thoroughly pro-
tected, as is now provided by law.
With this object in view | have visited
in person a number of the larger man

ined the crude material TO satisfy N.Y.
self that it was such as would produce
good results, and was suited TO the
purpose for which it was intended
that of supplying the elements of a
wholts Dme crop food. These personal
inspections have been thorough, and
| hope have brought about good re-
suits.
Hundreds of special samples have
been sent to this department t. and In
every instance TIE analysis has been
promptly made and the result mailed
to the party at interest. | trust that
the methods adopted by me have
brought about good results and that
the farmers and consumers feel that
they have been amply protected by the

and has been a matter of notorious ac-
cusaton against a long line of state
treasurers and political bosses for many
years. Mr.. Quay himself has been
again and again accused of particpa-
ton in treasury jobhing by the news
papers of this and other states. The
case which terminated to-day, unlike
previous accusations, was founded eX-
clusively upon documentary proof in his
own handwriting and that of his
friends. The evidence of the guilt did
not depend on the veracity of any man
or men, but was supported exclusively
by his own letters and by written en-
tries and statements recorded by his
trusted friends and supporters.
notwithstanding all this proof, ema-
mating exclusively from the lips and
pens of himself and his closest friends
and in the face of his own silence and
failure to testify to his innocence, he
was acquitted.
This is a new chapter of shame for
Pennsylvania, new record of ta1lure
in the administration of justice that
will do much to encourage corruption
lists and public plunderers generally
throughout the country. The first shout
of defiant exultation of his acquittal has
proceeded from the governor of the
commonwealth, who has promptly ap-
pointed him a United States senator
without authority and in violation of
the law and in defiance of the will of
the people as expressed by the votes OF
the legislature. 1t is fitting in every
way that the capstone should thus have
been put on the edifice of machine job
berry by the Quay representative in the
governors chair.
But friends of good government
should not despair There are Other
indictments to be disposed of still hang
ing over Quay. The contest against
the degrading forces, acts and projects
of Quay and his machine representa-
tives will be carried on until justice
and right, morality and honesty shall
triumph. To-day's verdict settles moth
ing but the fate of the single bill of in
dictment upon which Quay was tried

expected welcome the red men told him
of a wonderful discovery they had
made a few weeks before in the hills.
They led him to hidden gulch. which
they called Skookum, and told the ply
sician to dig anywhere and he would
get gold. A few feet from the surface
he began to get rich colors, and long
before there was any indication of
bedrock the great worth of the dig
gings was proved. Several large mug
gets were found. The Indians took the
doctor further into the mountains until
they came to a lake, which was fed by
a large stream. They called this Sic
