NO SMALLPOX AT sloULTRIE.
Scare Is All Over-A Wedding and
Other News Notes.

Moultrie, Ga, July 29.-Considerable in
dignation is felt by some of the citizens
of Moultrie at the exaggerated reports
about smallpox here and in the county, and
so absurd were the rumors that the au-
thorities would not take the trouble to
correct them. 1t is with some amusement
that 1t is learned of some of the neigh
boring towns are quarantining. The facts
about the smallpox are that there was one
case here about two months ago, and one
case at Doreun, about fourteen miles
north from Moultrie, and no other cases
have developed and no uneasiness is felt.
The sanitary condition of the town and
the facts that nearly all the citizens have
been vaccinated relieve the public from
any fears about an epidemic.
One of the prettiest marriages of the
town was that of DR.. r. c. Lindsey, for
merly of Iventown, to Miss Jennie McNeill,
daughter of Maj ". NICK. Mcneil. The
ceremony was at Presbyterian Church,
and performed by Rev. Mr. McDougaI of
Thomasvile. The prominence of the two
families and popularity OF the young cou-
pie brought many people from adjoining
towns.
The Triton, Townsville and Gulf Rail-
road will put on regular schedule to
Thomasville July 81. This will prove quite
a convenience to the travelling public.
Application for charter for a $500 900 cot

Coal Near GreenviIIe.

Greenville News: Greenville county, be-
sides its wheat and cotton mills and other
small excellencies, may soon have another
attractive feature that, if indications are
worth anything, bids fair to be the source
of more wealth than all the other riches
and resources combined. That production
is soft coal How extensive this find may
be only close investigation viii prove. Coal
has been found. There are samples in pos
session of a few men who themselves
picked up the specimens that the most I'M
sophisticated can see is coal. These men
cannot yet say whether they have STUN
bled on a "salted mine" or not The
specimens came from a large area and
show unmstakable marks of long expos
ure TO the weather. They were picked up
scattered over an old field, but so far no
true vein has been located. They are not
miners nor biologists, nor mineralogists
and cannot, therefore, read whatever
signs there may be in the vicinity that
might betoken the real existence of this
mineral. The location is some ten or
twelve miles from the city and it hardly
seems probable that any one would have
taken the trouble to sow an old red field
with half a bushel of mineral coal that
must have come from Greenville.

Removing the Hyncinths.

Jacksonville Metropolis: c. S. Hammatt
who Is experimenting the removal Of hya-
cinths from Hogan creek, said to-day that
while the work was necessarily slow 1t
was thorough. He has two logs dashed to-
gether at one end and separated ct the
other end like shears This is dragged
along the creek, gathering in the plants
and others are packed into it with pitch
forks and then lowed out into the river
and dumped. The creek had almost be-
come unnavigab BILE owing to the collection
therein of hyacinths. and the demand was
repeatedly made on the board of public
works for it's removal. The board was not
opposed TO the removal, provided IL did
not endanger the public health, and Mr.
Hammatt's plan does not stir the bottom
of the creek at all, and consequently no
mud is raised and exposed to the sun. 1t
is astonishing how fast this weed accu-
mulates, and how densely it covers the
waters surface.

Census of the seminoles.

Jacksonville Times-Union and Citizen:
A report from the census enumerators
appointed to teke the count of the Semi
mole Indians in the southern part of the
state shows that it has been. so far. a
success-quite up to the expectations OF
The supervisor and the men to whom the
difficult task was committed COM
plete count has been made of the In
dams on the east side of the Everglades,
and no difficulty has been experienced in
getting the information asked. Mr.. Fries
reports that he has learned that the In
dams on the west side are scattered on
a big hunt and will not return to their
villages until the first week in August;
consequently, he has delayed his trip TO
the west for a few days, and will start
on Aug. to cross the Everglades by boat
from Fort Lauderdae. A story of his
experience on this expedition will prove
most interesting reading when it shall be
published, which, ii is hoped, will be
done in the near future. The trip Is one
that has been attempted but few times
before in the history of Florida, and the
equipment for the unusual journey will be
most elaborate. But few men in Florida
are sufficiently experienced and familiar
with the uncharted waters of the great
swamp to undertake the hazardous trip
but Mr. Fries anticipates no insurmount-
able difficulty in reaching the Indians or
in securing an accurate count OF their
numbers.

Notes on Tomato GrOwing-Eow (,
Grow without Stakes.

Any one, who has grown tomatoes any
length OF time knows very well that I'M
staked tomatoes are very unsatisfactory,
especially in wet years-a wet June say.
The amateur of experience need not be
told that a hundred plants properly staked
will yield more perfect fruit than 500
vines that are allowed TO lay fiat on the
ground. In the latitude of Middle Georgia
the main crop of tomatoes are set out
in April and begin to ripen (most varie-
ties), about the middle of June. BY the
LIST of July the vines have set 50 per cent.
OF the fruit that they will bear. If it
should be very wet from the first of
June until the middle of the month, blight
and rot is quite certain to do great dam
age to all unstaked vines. and even the
staked ones will be subject to loss of a
considerable part of the fruit.
When less than a thousand vines are
grown. ii is possible nearly always to pro-
vide stakes, but when grown upon a large
scaie--five 10 twenty acres-there are very
few who regard it necessary 10 stake
The plants are set out, cultivated a few
times and left to the elements. If the
season is dry it will be alright probably
a crop that is considered profitable results.
The rows are made three or four feet
apart, and the plants set three or four
feet apart in the row.
Now in growing them on a large scale,
where there is no stalking, 1t will be found
of marked advantage to set in double
rows as is frequently folioweN in the
case of corn.
For instance. lay off the rows FIVE feet
apart. after the soil has been well
broken. A good application of manure
may be made TO these burrows, bus 1t IS
always well to apply manure broadcast
for tomatoes. List on this furrow or not
as may be preferred. When time comes
to set out, lay off a scooter furrow on
each side of this first furrow or list, so
as to give two feet as the distance be-
tween the row of plants. This will give
two feet and three feet as the width
of the alternating rows set the plants two
feet apart in the rows. Just before the
plants are large enough to fall over,
pow out the narrow middle thoroughly.

Handling Bees.

A good many people do not keep bees
because they have a notion that bees do
not like them. 1t has been pretty well
established that in the matter of likes and
dislikes everybody is alike to bees. says
the Garden and Farm. Some men are more
adept at handling them than others, but
the most successful beekeeper is the one
who wears a veil all the time and goes
among the bees with a calm determine
ton not to strike wildly at the air If one
Of the colony begins TO buzz about his
ears.
Bees are not at all averse to a hostile
declaration and are ready at all times to
sacrifice themselves in a fight with an an
innate being. The only satisfaction man
can get in fight with a bee is that the
insect dies soon after making his thrust,
but this is not sufficient to soothe the
pain. The best way to handle bees as well
as men is to take advantage of their weak
spots. Some men and all bees are in the
best condition to manipulate when they
are approached through their stomachs.
Men are SO constituted as to approach
and feed on good things without persua-
sion, but bees must be alarmed be-
fore they gorge themselves. Smoke is the
most convenient thing to use in raising an
alarm in a colony of bees. AS soon as
smoke DeglnS 10 enter the hlVe every pee
attacks the stores of a colony and eats
all the honey it can hold. If a colony is
gently smoked and left 20 itself for few
minutes 1t can be handled by anyone. This
is equally applicable to ell bees when han
ding them, but some breeds of bees are
more aggressive than others. The native
black bees are liable to go out of theft
way to sting a man, but Italians rarely
| make the first move toward battle. For
this reason Italians should be chosen in
selecting a breed. Another good reason
for choosing them is that they are the
| best breed.

Giant Oaks Decaxipr.

Augusta Chronicle: 1t is a sad fact that
some of the giant oaks on Greene street
are victims of decay, and that many of
them have recently died and have been
cut down. Standing in a room i'm the
government building the other day, a
Chronicle reporter noticed fully a hat
dozen of these big trees, the leaves of
which show the effects of blight and are
turning brown. What would Greene street
be without shade trees? 1t would be
hard to imagine. Cut them all down and
you would realize a vast difference, both
in appearance and temperature of the at
mosphere at this season Of the year. 1t
would be almost like converting a beau
tiful garden into a desert, with the ex-
ception of the beauty added to che thor
oughfare by the handsome residences
thereon. Greene street without its laby-
rinths of shade trees, would not be the
Greene street which il is to-day, and has
heen for years, the pride of Augustans
and the object OF admiration 10 all visit
ors to the city.
