WHAT SULLY SAYS.
The Cotton King Gives Wise Advice
to Southern Planters.

to Southern Planters.
To the cotton Growers OF the South.
If you wish to win your battle
and obtain q fair price for your cot
ton you must reduce your acreage
very considerably.
You have surprised the world by
the manner in which you have held
your cotton.
Surprise it again by cutting down
your cotton acreage.
Do not be led astray by the pres.
ent steadire;S Of prices.
Three causes have contributed to
bring about this rise Of more than one
cent pound.
First: The urgent demand aris-
Ing from an unprecedented consump-
ton
"Second: Your courage and wis.
dom In making the buyer meet your
terms.
Third: The belief that you would
cut your acreage to such an extent
that the supplies from this crop and
the growth OF 1905 Oe would make q
commercial crop no larger than the
word needs.
"The first two causes lose their
force the moment it is known that
there Is a prospect for moderately
large crop xt year.
Even II the mills take II, 600, 900
bale, during the current season, this
would leave carry over-of l 900 600
bales. Hence the necessity OF a
smaller crop this year
Do not let any rise In prices be-.
tween now and the end Of the plant
Ing season deter you from reducing
your acreage
Such an advance would be merely
anticipating that you were- making
the decrease which your friends have
advised you to make.
III the June report OF the govern
ment shows that you have failed to
make sufficient reduction the only
persons who would be gamers by the
advance would be the speculators who
sell Gut their futures at profit.
The price Of the cotton you pro.
duce will be regulated by the. actual,
not the expected, rec uction.
Don't depend on your neighbor to
do the reducing.
In this matter Of acreage reduc.
tion bear in mind three suggestions:
Don't rely on bad weather to cut
down the size Of the crop.
Don't put a large acreage into
cotton simply because it is too late
to plant corn or other diversified
crops
1t would be far better to let part
OF your land lie idle than to run the
FISK OF raising a crop so large as to
make possible another period OF low
priced cotton
Il am making this appeal to you
because | regard the next few weeks
as critical to the south and because l
believe that every man who is inter.
ested In the welfare of the south
should urge the Importance Of q re-
duced acreage.

Dicd While Speaking.

AT Atlanta, Ca, Washington
Dessau Of Macon, one of the most pro
mlnent members OF the Georgia bar,
died Wednesday while addressing the
supreme court Of the State. The cause
OF the death was apoplexy, which re-
suited fatally within 10 minutes after
he was attacked. Mr.. Dcssau was
born In Macon In July, 1862. He was
graduated from the University OF
Georgia In 1870 and began at once the
study of his profession. He was presi-
dent OF the Georgia Bar association
In 1892. a member of the electoral
collection in 1888, and was delegate
as large from Georgia TO the national
Democratic convention In 1888.

THE sADDgsT WORDS.
Rev. DR.. Hills Opinion of Remarks
Young Rockefeller.

In the course of his sermon in Ply.
mouth church, Brooklyn, recently,
the Rev. DR.. Newell Dwight Hills
referred to the gift OF 800, 600 made
by John D. Rockefeller to the Ameri
can Board Of Foreign Missions, and to
MIR. Rockefeller's son. He said in
part:
The saddest words that have been
written III this generation were spoken
before Brown uhiversitY by young
man who Is to inherit one of the
greatest fortunes In this country.
They were spoken in defense of the
trusts. Listen to the m: The Ameri-
can Beauty rose can be produced In all
its splendor only by sacrificing the
early buds that grow up around 1t.
The rose has l. 900 buds and In order
to produce the American Beauty the
gardener goes around 1T with knife
and snips 900 in order that all the
strength Of the beauty may be forced
into one bloom. In his ec nomic
argument this young man tells the
working classes brutally that 999
small business men must BE- suuffed
out of existence In order that his
American beauty, the trust, may be
produced. Listen to Christ: Let the
strong bear the burdens Of the weak;
and again: Give and it shall be
given unto you
These words in defense Of the
trusts are the most heartbreaking
things.in the literature to those who
know what Is g ling t, come in the
fnture. Can you wonder that after
that, when a man gives gifts, we have
no gratitude to return?"

CARE FOR MOTHER.
Boys and Girle, In Her Old Age.
Don't Neglect Her.

What can possibly be sadder than
a mother neglected In her old age
To think Of all the pain, sorrow,
trouble and anxiety she endured for
Us. her many sleepless nights and
nnrdened days when She held in her
arms the little feverish, fretful body
who would allow no one else to hold
1t to relieve her own weariness !
Then when health again returned it
was still q continual cry for mama
mama !" the livelong day And then
TO think that as the years pass the
growing children will depend less and
less on mother" till finally they
cease a together to go to her for her
counsel and care, aud think because
sho is growing old, faded and wrinkled
that size does not care for love and
tenderness as all other human beings
do. They neglect to show her the
small courtesies we feel due our
younger friends, because she will
not notice them" or she is too old
fashioned to understand" the up to-
date poiiteness. To us ct least 1T is
heart breaking spectacle to behold,
for as mother" grows older we
should give her more instead of less
OF our love and tender care, and
should honor her years and expe.
Iience by asking her advice even on
trivial subj Cts, for she will then feel
that she Is still necessary to US and
can have a share in our daily trials
and joys as Of yore, when she was all
in all to US.
Take my withered hands in yours,
Children Of my soul.
Mothers heart is craving love,
Mothers growing old.
See the SHOWS Of many years
Grown my furrOwed brow.
AS I've loved and pet ed you,
Love and pet me now.
Lay your hands upon my head,
Smooth my whitened hair,
I've been growing old the while
You've been growing fair.
| have tOiled and prayed for you
Ask not why or how
As I've loved ana petted you,
Love and pet me now.
Take my withered hands in yours,
Children of my heart,
Mothers growing old, your love
Makes of life sweet part.
Touch with loye my faded cheek,
Kiss my anxious brow.
AS I've loved and petted you,
Love and pet me now.
Take my withered hands in yours,
Hold them close and strong.
Cheer ne with a fond caress,
Twill not be for long
Youth immortal soon will crown
With its wreath my brow.
AS l loved and petted you,
Love and pet me now.
Take my withered hands in yours,
This your heart will prove;
If you owe me anything,
Pay the debt in love.
Pres me in your strong young arms,
Breathe loving vow
That as I loved and petted you
You'll love and pet me now.

klmba,I Mi, Changes Hands Again

The Kimball flour mill is to become
the property Of Frank Zemlicka as
soon as the transfer can be made. The
deal has been completed and now only
waits the usual time taken to make
out the necessary papers and give
clear title. The mill was sold by L..
a. Foote a year ago last fall to the
Unity Investment company of Sioux
City; which was represented here in
person by w. +. Lohr. The company
spent a large amount of money on the
property, building anew engine house,
installing a new engine and rebuild
ing the plant in other ways, so that
it is now in fine shape for business.
The new owner, Mr.. Zemlicka, is a
young farmer-or was prior to his
taking up his residence in Kimball-
and is widely known all over the
county.

there isn't much lett to be said, furth-

as eyer and up to date in scenery and
equipment. Warren Noble has a re-

vertises and his company is far ahead
of any other so called "popular priced"
troupe on the road as to defy compari-
son. Kimball has not enjoyed a de-
cent show the past winter and it goes
without saying that the opera-house
will be packed nightly. Meanwhile

ing nights. Seats will be on sale at
