The Popularity of "OId Jos'' Has Brought Forth Worthless limitations All Over tho South
MANY IAJUNCTI0NS GRANTED

The accompanying picture is an elo- quent tribute to the popularity of tE6 largest selling brand of whiskey evar placed on the Southern market. and shows conclusively<that "oid Joe" ts a whiskey of genuine merit
 Before an article of any kind is over initiated 1t must have large and in- creasing sale, for 1t Is because of this demand that designing and unscrupu- lous imitators hope to foist upon the public their cheap and worthless iIni- tations. The merit of any article oe general consumption can very safely be gauged by the demand which It's popularity with the public has ere- ated.
 A most enviahie record has been made by "Old Joe" whiskey that has in remarkably short time become the best known brand in the entire South. This hne old whiskey was placed on the market just eight years ago by Bu- thenthal & Blckart, or Atlanta, the largest and best known whiskey houso In the South. It met with immediate favor, and increased in popularity steadily. so that i.5o0,oo0 bottles were required to supply the demand in 1905. Indications point to a sale of over 100000 bottles this year.
 The accompanying illustratioa shows the various attempts that have been made to initiate this popular wnisksy. In every instance Messrs. ButhenthaI 6 Bickart have taken prompt steps to protect the public and suppress these worthless limitations. Permanent inc functions have been granted in both the United States and State courts. and the rights of B. & B. upheld in every instance. after exhaustive hearings, during which the high quality of .oid Joe" has been ce-tifed to by some of the most eminent chemists of the coun- try Other suits are now pending, as 1t Is the intention of the proprietors of "Old Joe" to prosecute every att tempt to initiate this famous whiskey.

HARVESTING TOBACCO,
The Crop Ripened Rapidly. ana NeaFis
 All in Barns,

All in Barns, f Marion Standard.
 MT. Ayre, the government tobacco expert who Is looking after the crop in Perry. says that nearly half of the crop from the forty acres planted this year has already been cut and is in the barns. "The crop has ripened so fast" remarked MT. Ayre. that 1t has taken our best work to keep ID with it. We are worked down but 1t will be over in few days. The crop has rinened at least two weeks earlier than we anticipated. The ground can now be planted In peas. in fact a late crop of corn can be raised on 1t, and thts with the handsome profit of t5 cents per pound for tobacco with an average 800 pounds to the acre ought to be, satisfactory to the farmers. I am. of the opinion that the tobacco of Perry next year Is going to attract no little attention. We have clearly demon- strated that 1t can be successfully and profitably grown and the market de- mapds large acreage. If the farmers do what they say venture there will be at least 1000 acres planIed in to- bacco next year, and then King Cot ten" will have to move to the prai- riez."
 It will be rerrembered that the grow CTS have a standing offer of i5 cents DOT pound for. this years crop With the privilege of securing better price,i and MT. Ayre thinks with the reported short supply at this time it may be possible that a much better price can be received. The cror as whole is said to be extra good, In fact about the best in quality and quantity ever raised in the county. .
