Small Number Of Pensioners.

In speaking of the small number
of Confederate pensioners in this
district, Judge Thomas w. Harri-
son remarked last week that Clarke
county has a smaller number than
any other county in this Circuit.
This seems rather strange, when
we consider the large number of
soldiers whom Clarke county sent
forth to battle for the Stars and
Bars.

FORES
(Intended for last week.

Four main barns at N. B. Powers
farm, run by Henry Waters, together
with their contents, were totally de-
stroyed by fire about one O'Clock Friday
morning. The buildings were a horse
barn, cow barn steer barn and goat barn.
They were covered with sheet iron on
the outside and had cement floors and
all modern improvements on the inside.
Forty one head of cattle, As Angora
goats, 81 pigs, a few hens and one horse
persisted in the flames. The horse be-
longed to Mr.. Waters and was valued at
$500. There were also 200 tons of ensi-
lage, 80 tons of hay, 20 tons of straw, all
the harness and everything pertaining to
the creamery and some farming imple-
ments were all destroyed. 1t was not
discovered until one barn was ready to
fall and the others were all ablaze. The
alarm was given and whistles blown.
With hard work the work horses were
saved. Mr.. Waters thinks if they had
known it fifteen minutes sooner all the
live stock might have been saved. The
origin of the fire is unknown, but it is
thought it was set by some deer hunter
who was sleeping in the barn where the
straw was kept, as that was where the
fire started and tracks were found from
that barn to the woods. There was no
insurance.

How To Win Premiums on Poultry.

]. L. Uric of Craftsbury, VT, was
one of the largest exhibitors of poultry
at the Lamoille Valley Fair at Norris
vile, VT, and the large number of
premiums he won is indicative of the
care and attention he gives to his fowls
Poultry keepers will doubtless be in
terested to learn of his methods. The
following letter from Uric d Sawyer,
of which firm the above named is a
member, will partly explain: Pages
Perfected Poultry Food is all that you
claim for it and is as staple as granu-
lated sugar or flour. Mr.. Uric, who is
a breeder of fine poultry, uses it in his
yards all the year round. We would
like to be agents again the coming sea-
son."

HEALTHY MOTHERS.

Mothers should always keep in good
bodily health. They owe it to their
children. Yet it is no unusual sight to
see mother, with babe in arms, cough
ing violently and exhibiting all the
symptoms of consumptive tendency.
And why should this dangerous con-
dition exist. dangerous alike to mother
and child, when Dr. Boschee's German
Syrup would put stop to it at once?
No mother should be without this old
and tried remedy in the house-for its
timely use will promptly cure any lung,
throat or bronchial trouble in herself or
her children. The worse cough or cold
can be speedily cured by German Syrup;
so can hoarseness and congestion of the
bronchial tubes. 1t makes expectoration
easy, and gives instant relief and refresh
ing rest to the cough-racked consump-
tive. New trial bottles, 25c; large size,
zoe. At NJ. r. Burt's.
