Babyse Sleep.


Creeping 80 swiftly over the floor;
Now here by the window, now there by
the door;
Herself pulling up by chair and by bed,
Getting many bump on her dear little
head,
Little sharp eyes, spying every stray
pin,
Little mouth open to put them all in;
Laughing and growing with frolicsome
glee;
Our dear little wide awake baby.
A little warm thing cuddled down in a
heap,
Her soft cheeks afush with the roses of
sleep;
Little smiles hidden all safely away,
To be brought forth again at the dawn
o of day. s1e1ff4ss $50 te
Little feet resting, and little hands, too.
Which is more than by daylight they

Tucked in with many Kiss and caress;
May angels watch Ger her, may God

CUBAN CONSUL KICKS.
Objects to Quarantine Regulations
Against islanders and ThFeasshs
Retaliatory Measures.

Cuban Consul Leopold Dolse OF MO
bile, Ala, has addressed a letter to
DR.. Rhett Goode, president OF the
quarantine board Of Mobile bay, in
which he sets out that the regula'
tions of his board, which went into
effect April /. against Cuban ports
are unjust and unnecessary. and asks
for their immediate repeal.
Otherwise he threatens to call the
attention Of his government to tho
matter that measures may be taken
in the premises, calling the attention
Of DR.. Goode to the fact that II the
enforcement Of the regulations are
persisted in, Cuba, can, with. good
cause, adopt retaliatory measures and
quarantine against Mobile, because OF
the prevalence OF cerebro spinal men
irgttis in this country.
DR.. Goode says the regulations were
adopted after a conference with che
United States marine hospital service
authorities, and the health authorities
of Texas and Louisiana.

70 Up TO THE FARMER.
A Reduction Of Acreage and Fertilizer
an Absolute Necessity. :.

A Reduction Of Acreage and Fertilizer
an Absolute Necessity.
The agricultural department Of Ala'
baua and other states show in recent
reports that the sale OF fertilizer
tags In Alabama during the season OF
19o41s05 shows an increase Of 1000
tons over the season Of 1903-1904.
The commissioner Of agriculture Of
Georgia has issued q similar report,
TN which he shows that the sales OF
fertilizer tags In Georgia this season
exceed those Of last year by more
than 500 tons.
"These reports" says NJ. L. John
son, president Of the Georgia division
Of the Southern Cotton Association.
"put the cotton situation right up to
the farmer, in order for the purposes
Of the association to be carried out,
it Ia absolutely necessary for the farm
er to reduce his cotton acreage and
the amount Of fertilizer used.
T kay the situation Is up to the
farmer, because It is the farmer who
will suffer II the crop Is not reduced.
Without a reduction, the price Of cot.
ton will be lower than the cost OF
production, and the farmer will find
himself In debt. With low price this
year, the interests Of the entire south
will suffer. - -"'
"The farmers Of Georgia must re-
duce their acreage. Let it. not be
said Of Georgia that she did not join
heart and soul in the movement which
means the salvation Of the southern
c~-ton greweY."
