The danger buildings of powder

that not nail head or iron in any
shape is exposed, and the roofs are
made slight, so as to give easy vent to

cannot carry knives, or matches, or,
indeed, anything, and are made of

ers turned up at tire bottom, because
grit is collected in that way, and the

charge Of gunpowder is fraught with
danger.
The entrances to danger buildings
arc protected by boards placed edge
ways so that when the door il open
nothing in the shape Of dirt can work
in. This always serves as check To

Doors are made to open outward, O
as to enable them to escape the

and the operatives repair to the diffe

300 acres covered by these extensive
works.
Every week the machinery is in
spected, and the reports as to it's con-
dition are printed and filed. Iu the
case of danger building needing to
be repaired, it must first be washed
out before hammer or other iron tool
is admitted to it. When artificial
light is required, as when working at
night or in dull weather, the lights
are kept outside, being placed on the

'ieorgia would be if all the idle whites
would turn to agriculture. Ii would
solve all the problems We all
know that the poor white people have
had mighty little encouragement to
turn to farming. Ever since the war
there has been great worry over the
condition of the negro, but very little
anxiety about the poor whites. 1t has
come to the point that the poor white
man needs all the attention that you
can spare. The poor white man has
not even worried the politician. It
was taken as a matter Of course that
he must vote the democratic ticket,
aud that it was no use to bid for his
support. Dutch, Irish, English,
French and negro we're somewhat of
factors 10 politics, but a poor Georgia
white man was nothing but democrat
aud received about as much considera-
tion as dog. It has been 30 in ev-
erything.
H'ery Gay men are passing to lind
homes for another ycar-this is the
time. If you wait too long all the
best land will be taken up. The bad
weather Of the winter will soon be
upon you in the towns aud then you
won have much time for au ything but
to groan. There is plenty OF room in
the country, and the soil Of old Geor-
gia will yield generously if you will
give it the work.
One thing wish to tell you, just as
| have told you before: That farming
is the coming thing for the native
Georgia white man. Land is getting
higher and higher every day aud will
soon be out Of reach Of the man with
small means. If you are able to buy
piece Of land, that is the thing to
do. and do it quickly. IF you are not
able to buy, then rent, and rent just
as quick as you can. Crush all the
naughty spirit, be sensible, come to
work, and it won't be long till you arc
proud Of it and will thank me for tell
ing you. SARGE PLUNKETT.

Mr.. SelDy's presentation of the teach
