RURAL FREE DELIVERY.

1t is said that property along rural
free delivery routes has increased from
two to six dollars an acre in value and
purchasers willingly pay an increased
amount for farm lands situated on a
road trayersed by rural carrier, in
preference to good land, situated away
from this advantage. There are as many
applicants on file at the postoffice de-
partment for the establishments of rural
free delivery routes as there are now
routes in operation, which numbered
6,OOC at the opening Of the mouth of
December. The superintendent of this
service estimates that in five years
these routes will have spread their use
full tentacles over an area of million
square miles, embracing one-third the
territory in which the system will be
found practicable. Cobb county ought
to have this system.

SENAT0R CLAY,S SUCCESSION.

One of the most important duties to
come before the Georgia legislature
when it next meets is TO elect sue
cessor to United States Senator Clay
Senator Clay's first term will expire in
March, 1908, and il is more than likely
that when the time comes he will be re-
elected without opposition. There has
been some little talk that different ones
may oppose Mr.. Clay, but SO far moth
ing definite along this lire has develop
ed, and it is doubtful if it does. Mr..
Clay has made his state an able and
faithful representative. Heis now serv-
ing his first term, and, under GeOrgia's
time-honored and democratic custom Of
giving all public servants at least a sec
ond term, as well as on account of his
faithfulness to the best interest of his
constituents, Mr.. Clay is fully entitled
to the reelection which he is certain to

PROPERTIES LOOKING WE'LL
Skylark and o. X. Extension Both
Theoretically Developing.

A. j. McMullen, president OF the Sky
lark and o. X. Extension companies

from camp yesterday, after having
spent three days sizing up develop
ments.
At the Skylark the crosscut from the
shaft which will tap the vein at a depth
OF 400 feet is now out seventy-tvo feet,
and the character Of the rock at the
face indicates that the vein is close
at hand. AS soon as the ledge is
tapped drifting in both directions will
be pushed with all possible speed. A

Mullen says, viii shortly be made
At the o. K. Extension the shaft is
now down 420 feet in the vein. In
sinking four and one-half feet Of the
vein matter is removed, though fire.
quenI CTOsscuts to the hanging wall
show the vein to be from six to ten
feet wide. There is a streak of fine
sulphide ore on both foot and hanging
wall sides. On the latter side the foot
or more of quartz is literally filled with
fine particles of copper sulphides that
grow better and better as depth is at
tanned. over 200 gallons Of water per
day is now making in the bottom Of
the shaft, and the region Of solid ore
bodies is believed to be but a short dis
tance below.

COOL FOOD.
For Hot DAYS.

-~N
Better health comes with less meat
and fat during the warm weather.
BY proper and pleasant diet you can
prepare the body for summer and feel
from ten to twenty degrees cooler than
your neighbOr.
Grape-Nuts and cream. a little fruit
and possibly a couple of soft boiled
eggs, is sufficient for the breakfast.
An ordinary portion OF Grape-Nuts
contains sufficient nOurishment to fully
sustain the body until the MONDAY
meal; being a pre-digested food, it does
not overtax the stomach and contains
none Of the heat supplied by the heavy
carbonaceous foods
Fully cooked at the factory by food
experts, brings it to you ready to
serve. and does away with the heat
of cooking and the time necessary TO
prepare ordinary food. and its crisp
daintiness is pleasing to the palate of
young and old.
Many delicious recipes are found in
each Grape-Nuts package so that the
form of eating this wholesome food
can be changed to suit the user.
These suggestions, IL followed for
ten days. will convince the most skep-
teal that a cool body. an active brain
and an energy hitherto unknown viii
prevail and the general lassitude pe-
culiar TO warm weather viii disappear.

Manager Madsen, and when I left

Forrest says. he will have no difficulty

Manager Madsen said there were
three parallel lodges in the property,
designated as the Century, July and
Copper veins, and all of them were
now being developed from the working
tunnel and made TO produce good. The
July vein has just been tapped by a
short upraise. and the ore taken out
runs from SIS TO $50 per ton in gold.
The vein where opened is about two
and one-half feet wide.
The copper vein was previously
stripped for a distance Of nearly 300
feet, but no attempt was made to mine
it. Now the management intends to
begin testing its values, at least, to
learn just what it amounts to. As far
back as 1899 il was opened at the sur

Germany already has a fairly COM

but the doles guaranteed were not suf-

Rock, and in the Undine which adj
joins it. In the Martha Washington,
in the immediate vicinity, some very
good ore appears in both north and
south drifts. while encouraging results
follow the prospecting of the famous
Joe Daley, which is being conducted
from the 300-fOot level of the Undine.
J. b. Creighton, superintendent of the
TesOra, has secured lease on the Rab-
bit Foot. just above town, and will
begin work next week. The property is
traversed by a vein of high-grade sill
Ver-cOpper, two carloads of which
netted the owners $50 per ton. An ex-
cessive flow of water, however, caused
a cessation Of work two years ago.
Since then the water has found an
other outlet, presumably through the
workings of the United Sunbeam, and.
with the mine perfectly dry, Mr..
Creighton should have no difficulty in
making the lease pay a handsome
profit.
At the Tesora the mill was put into
commission several days ago on Alaska
ore, but ]. 3. Fleming was uneXpect-
edly called away, and not, caring to
take any chances, he closed the ma
chinery down until his return. The ore
has been thoroughly tested. and il is
certain that it will afford a fair mar
gin of profit to the Alaska, as well as
earning good interest on the plant for
TesOra shareholders.
