Pecan Growing.

J. R. Wright in Southern Ruralist.
 We grow oak trees for shade; why not grow pecan trees for both shade and profit? They make as handsome a tree and the question of profit is beyond doubt to anyone who has looked into the matter Sufficient oceans for family use can be grown on few trees about the house and garden. Many groves for commercial purposes are being planted in all the Southern tier of the Atlantic and Gulf States.
 Much depends upon the proper se- lection of varieties; for these are aI- most as distinct and numerous as those of apples. or peaches, or plums Fret- scfler is one of the best of these varieties. IL is large thin shellod nut, and the tree is a rapid and vigorous grower that bears young and produces abundant crops. I have tested this va riety quite thoroughly in South Geor- Ria. and am very much pleased with 1t. Stuart is another variety that Is highly recommended. and has given good sat isfaction wherever tried, but I have not vet fruited it. Van Deman is not quite SO large as Frotscher and Stuart, but is highly recommended and is we'll spoken of but has not yet established It's right to be classed as an equal of some of the above. precaution as to one variety.

There are many points to consider
besides appearance and make of the
movement. Some think that who
makes the case doesn't matter, but
when nine out of ten people put more
money in the case than the move
ment it seems that who made it and
what it is made of ought to make
a difference.
However good movement may be
it will not give satisfaction unless
it is protected by well made case.
One of those cheap cases which lose
their shape, cut away where 1t
closes, and stands open in your peck
ct will ruin the best movement made.
They are not standard in size nor
quality. You are always breaking
the crystals and often have to wait
for the bezel to go to the factory
to get new ones fitted, besides the
additional expense which is about
double. Standard goods can be
fitted by any jeweler.
The Waltham and Elgin factories
make movements from $500 to
$4,000. Consequently the name of
the maker isn't all that is neces-
sary, but a grade and size best
adapted to your individual use must
be considered.

DID YOU EVER sTop TO THINK A MOMENT
BEFORE You Made Up Your Where Buy atch! There
Are MANY Things Consider

There are frsts and seconds IN
all goods, as you we'll know.
The movements are tested after
being made, and where they do not
come up to a standard in every de-
tail they are placed with the seconds.
These movements are sold to peo-
pie who do a mail order business,
or distribute them where they can
lot be tried and tested.
You do not get them any cheaper
than first quality movements unless
they are fitted in cheap cases.
If you want cheap watch get
a catalogue and order it yourself
and save about 100 per cent. Whole
sale houses who sell outside of the
iewelry trade will sell you at the
same price they sell the ''side-liner.
If you want standard goods, worth
every cent you pay for them, go TO
a jeweIer who you have confidence
in, tell him what you want and de-
pend on him to sell you something
good and make a legitimate profit.
We can sell you a good watch cheap,
or a very good cheap watch II you
don't want to pay the price OF the

A DRAMLESS CIRCUS DAY
4 Drouth Struck Dawson Simulta-
neousIy With RObinson's


There was nothing doing in the
drink line in Dawson Saturday so far
as the dispensary was concerned
That institution was closed as tight
as Dicks hat-band, and those who
found it necessary to have a dram
or several of them-to properly en-
ioy the circus had to get out and
hustle for the fire-water
The thousands of people VINO
came to Dawson Saturday were as
tonished when they found the dis
pensary was not open. The commits
sioners closed the dispensary as
precautionary measure. They knew
that the town would be crowded with
people, and with the dispensary
closed it was believed that there
would be less probability of trouble.
The order throughout the day was
as near perfect as it could be. The
police made but two arrests.

Notwithstanding that the dispen-

the thirsty ones were determined not
to be deprived of their toddy, and
either went or sent to Bronwood,
Sasser and Albany.
Thirty round-trip tickets were sold
by the Seaboard to Sasser, the pur-
chasers going down on the l o'clock
train and returning on the 3 o'clock
train after buying their booze. The
same train carried a number of mes
sengers who were dispatched to Al
bany for whiskey, and these re-
turned with quantities of it.
Many also went or sent to Bron-
wood, and the large crowd that
comes from Randolph county on the
Central train every Saturday did not
get off at Dawson, but continued
their journey to Brentwood:
