HEED THIS WARNING.
The Farmer Who Tries to Cultivate
Too Much Land Is sure to
Make a Mess of It,.

Perhaps there is no agricultural pa
per published, or that ever was pub
/ lished. that has not over and over again
advised farmers not TO plant more land
than they can properly fertilize and eul-
tivate. What good has the advice ever
done? The class of farmers who lack
judgment enough TO know better than to
do deal of work absolutely for nothing,
are not likely ever TO accept such advice,
or maybe even TO see ii in print The
other class don't need it, But the farm
ers who overdo planting and underdo
ullage, are actually standing right In
their own way. Time and again ii has
been said that the possibilities of an acre
OF ground have never yet been deter
mined. If a man plants three. FIVE or
more acres, TO get a crop he might OBJ
tain from one highly fortified acre,
the extra labor of blowing. cultivating
ana harvesting is so much labor lost

ter OF hoeing. Every time he hoes his
crop, If the plants are yard apart each
way. he has 1880 less hills to hoe than

the single acre richly fortified is in
good shape for another crop. while the
hVe acres. partially fortified. are left in
poor condition.
The number of acres a farmer should
plant is the number he can do Justice
10 In every way. As a rule the acres
VIII be few unless he depends on hired
labor Not many men are to be pitied
because their farms are so small. The
small farmer don't generally shiver
"hen he sees the tax collector coming.
In spite of the modern warfare against
them, 1t is greatly to be found that the
injurious insects are increasing year by
year. The difference between the cost

supreme authority. the city, may permit. Is
to work the thousands of acres which by

we may have TO resort to manufacturing our

will be in condition to do unless the city

tiles do now, refuse to make it possible.
Let the trustees at their next meeting
comply with the clamor for a board of di-
rectors that will manufacture gas out OF
the material the company has In great
abundance when the supply of natural gas
is exhausted, whether that means the pres
ent board in whole or in part, but let them
and all whom il may concern remember
that no board of directors can do anything
else than let the whole thing go into the
hands of a receiver and thence into some
other hands, unless those in supreme
authority do their part. 1t Is as ungener-
GUS as it is unjust to saddle the blame for
present conditions upon the present board
Of directors and IL will be a long while be-
fore the trustees find more honorable and

IRVINGTON HOMES LOOTED
BURGLARS ALMOST MAKE CLEAN
SWEEP OF THE SUBURB.
A Drug store, a Meat Market and Sew.
era1 Residence Visited by Mid
night ProwlerS.

Burglars made wholesale raid in Irving
ton early yesterday morning and made
away with money and valuables to the
amount OF several hundred dollars. The
thieves operated in the northeastern part
of the suburb and did their work so skill
fully and professionally that they were not
discovered at any of tn. many places
visited. William /. Coonss drug store and
Henry Frosch's meat market, both on Cen
trail avenue: the homes of Samuel Somer-
Vile, 5649 East Washington street; John c.
Barnhill, 56i7 East Washington street, and
c. NJ. Cross, corner OF Washington street
and Ritter avenue, were all entered and
considerable booty secured at each place.
At William Coonss drug store an en-
trance was effected by breaking the lock on
the front door. Some small change, sew
eral boxes OF cigars and a bottle of whisky
We're secured. The meat market of Henry
Frosch was entered by prying open the
rear door. The safe was rified and several
dollars taken.
Entrance to the residences seems to have
been by skeleton keys. the back doors
or the houses were found open and the
KEYS upon the floors. None of the windows
anv sirns of tho locks Of the doors having
been broken. At the Somerville residence
the thieves made clean sweep, securing
TWO Docketbooks, a 80 gold watch, over
coats. fine china and silverware and
valuable pair OF gold spectacles. Occupants
of the house did not know OF their loss

A MILITARY ROAD TO ANDERSON
Americus May Be Connected With
National Cemetery.

National Cemetery.
A smooth, we'll ballasted turnpike or
military roadway, connecting Americas
with the National Cemetery at Ander-
sonvilIe, thus rendering that historic
place more accessible by private con-
veyance at all seasons, is now almost
a certainty.
Aud the probability of it's easly con-
struction is strong indeed.
That the Government will make an
appropriation to this end, and thereby
render accessible the National Gene
terry, where 1900 Union soldiers are
buried, is quite probable.
The matter of constructing such a
government roadway from Americas to
AndersonviIIe has long been under
discussion, and when suggested to
Congressman E. B. Lewis, when here
day or two ago, the subject i'm
pressed him favorably.
And Mr.. Lewis will go to work at
once to the end of having the great
highway built.
The distance is about twelve miles,
and such a roadway could be built at
no great cost. It would be alike valu'
able to the Government and to the
public at large.
Thousands of northern people visit
the AndersonyiIIe National Cemetery
annually, and the comfort and con-
venIence of these visitors would be
greatly enhanced by the construction
of a good road leading from Americas
to that historic spot.
In this city they find ample hotel
accommodations for large parties, and
with rapid transit over smooth, lev
ell, well built road they can easily visit
the cemetery,
The Government highway, if built,
would be constructed along the most
direct route and would not only en-
nance the value of property along the
way but such road would result in
turning much business in the direc.
ton of Americas.
The people of this entire section
would rejoice in the building of such 0
road, while additional thousands oil
northerners would visit AndersonviIle
annually when it is thus rendered
more accessible.

VALUES ARE a LITTLE BETTER.
Cotton Market Firmer and an Eighth
Better.

Nine aud oneeighth cents--a stagger
ing price truly, was paid for split silk
qualities of cotton in Americus yester-
day. But this, even, was an eighth
better than prices obtaining for sever
al weeks past. The crop here, as else
where, is rapidly being marketed, and
as the fields show evidences of failure
the price gradually creeps up. A
month hence, and there will be little
cotton left here, and by that time
prices will, no doubt, be about the ten
cent mark. But those who can hold
until after the holidays will get the
highest prices paid for cotton in many
years. Such is the general opinion,
and many farmers are thus going to
back their Judgment.
