being derived from the sale of public
lands. The government prohibits the
making of private analyses.
DR.. A. W. Underwood was the next
speaker, and gave very able talk
upon the topic assigned him, Healthy
Homes and How to Have Them"
COMPARISONS were made of the SAM
tary conditions of cities, towns and
country villages Valuable infOrma-
ton was given regarding the disposal
of rubbish and the removal OF fetld
matter or night soil. Suggestions were
made as to earth closets, the use Of
unslaked lime, etc. The subject of
drinking water and the protection OF
it's sources was largely entered upon,
and many practical suggestions made.
The committee on resolutions then
made their report, a unanimous one
in favor of the adoption of the reso-
luton making this a permanent organ
ization. 1t was moved and seconded
that the resolution be adopted.
Mr. Cook spoke in favor of it. Co.
operation and organization are the
order of the times. The committee in
charge of this institute felt that all
interested would be largely benefited
by it's becoming a permanent organ1-
ZatiOn.
Major Healy spoke at length antag-
onistic to the resolution, and was ably
replied to by Mr.. Cook.
The chairman then called upon DR..
Geo. Mackie, of AttleborO, to speak
upon the subject, saying that DR..
Mackie was interested in farmers in
stitutes and oranges and had had
much experience in them.
Dr. Mackie spoke earnestly and to
the point, advocating the resolution.
Was assured that great benefit was
derived from such organizations. Pas
sing from the good to be derived from
the mutual exchange of experience to
the social feature, he spoke of the mo-
notony of the life of the farmer and
the farmers wife, saying that any
thing which would bring pleasure OF
a holiday into their lives should be
encouraged. After noting the good to
be derived from these institutes he
complimented them upon the large at
tendance and marked enthusiasm of
this institute.
The question was then called for,
voted upon and carried. The resolu-
ton left the organizing to the pro-
gram committee. The session closed
with music, and during the recess of
two hours a bountiful supper was
served.
At the evening session the meeting
was opened by music. The selection
was heartily encored and responded
to. A B. TOrrey then arose and re-
ferring to the hospitality of the peo-
pie of Pomona and good cheer it at
forded all present moved that a vote
of thanks be given the people Of Po-
mona for their hospitality. This was
seconded and carried unanimously.
The chairman then suggested that
vote of thanks be given to the board
of trustees at Lake City, under whose
auspices this institute was held. Maj

NOTES ABOUT NEIGHBoRs.

There is movement ON foot to
erect telephone line from Fort Gaines
to Coleman Such line would give us
connection also with Cuthbert, Dawson
and Albany and intermediate points,
and it is an enterprise that should
have the hearty support and encourage
ment rot only of the business men of
Fort Gaines and Coleman out of the
progressive farmers along the proposed
route, as the line can be tapped and
phones put in all along the way. Blake
ly and Button will also thus be given
the same connections secured by Folt
Gaines, aud these towns should have
considerable interest in the enterprise.

To Buy Cotton IN the seed,

From the Gotten Growers j Journal,
We hear of numerous gihneIs In Texas
and other states who are arranging, for
the coming season, to buy cotton in the
seed, when the customer desires to sell
in that shape. This is one result of the
competition of round bale plants, al
though it is practiced now by many GIN
ners who have not such competitive en-
vironments. We are inclined to depre-
cate the procedure-wh whether from the
ginner's or the growers dpoi9E-but
so many growers seem to prefer and de-
mand 1t that ginners have been led to
make concessions. The practice is estab-
lished now, and is likely to become more
general rather than diminished in vol
ume.

Watson,s returning Popularity.

From the Pelham Home.
Tom Watson is getting TO be almost as
popular with Georgia democrats as he
was before he brushed the democratic
dust from the sole of his feet some years
ago. Before that event one could not
pick up Georgia paper without seeing
paragraph about 'Georgia's brilliant
son, the Hon. Thomas E. Watson" 1t
is getting to be that way again. Mr..
Watson has been invited 10 deliver the
literary address at the coming commence
ment of he State University, and many
other honors are being shown him. But
this is only natural; merit always wins
in the end. The Home is glad to see this
change of sentiment toward Mr.. Watson.

CLEAN UP.

Atthis season OF the year it would
be good idea for the citizens to clean
up their premises, removing the rub
bish and refuse from their premises.
This is not only true as pertains TO the
health Of the town. but it would add
greatly to Dawson's appearance.
And, too, liberal application of the
paint brush is needed In many portions
of the city. We cannot be too careful
in this regard, and to sustain our repu-
tation as healthful location 1t would
be ADVISABLE for our people to act upon
these suggestions.
The cost of keeping the homes of
town III clearly condition is cOmpar-
atively small, as only an additional
amount Of labor is involyed.e Moth
ing more attracts the eye of the
stranger coming into town than
cleanliness.
THE NEWS hopes that those of
our good people who have hither-
10 been derelict in this matter NAV
view the situation in its true
light, and that DaWson's progress may
not be, retarded by trivial matter in
yolving so little cost.

The journey across Cobb desert lasted a

The two scientists arranged to ex-
plore the Yellow river, and their serv.
ants deserted them. They left Donkir
on Aug. 8 and went over country never
before traversed by foreigners. They
got two Cossacks and eight Chinese to
go with them. In upper Taho valley
the party were attacked by about 30
robbers, one-half of whom kept up a
lively fusillade while their COMPANIONS
raided the animals of the expedition.
The explorers returned the fire and
wounded several Of their assailanfs.
Upon tn9 robbers complaining Of being
wounded the inhabitants of the district
advised the explorers to make compen-
sation to. avoid serious consequences.
Reaching Tachou, where some Ameri-
can missionaries were met, it became
evident that the country was full of
robbers. So travelling there had to be
abandoned
