WHICH pOlnb d sure way TO naSCen ana
perfect all animal growth and de-
velopment.
Ask successful breeder of cattle
or man who turns off his fat droves
once or twice year, and he will tell
you, "My dear sir, It's all in the tonic
you can't fat steers, hogs, sheep OF
fit horse for the show ring or for
sale without using every day the
proper food tonic" and this man 3
testimony would be just what thou.
sands upon thousands Of others would
say if it we're possible to ask them
the same question. o.
It is a well-known fact by every
man who owns domestic animal, that
heavy feeding is likely to upset the
digestion and make the animal ego
back" Why this as so is alos we'll
known-no animal stomach is suffi-
GENTLY strong to stand the continual
stuffing that is necessary to make
desired weight in certain time.
Hence the feeder is constantly facing
a possibility of loss even before he
is ready to reap his gain.
Just here knowledge of the "tonic
idea" comes to help the feeder out.
It tells him that "food tonic" given
regularly (at small cost) to the steer,
cow, horse, hog or sheep which is be-
ing fitted for market, will remove the
possibility of digestive disorder and
by increasing assimilation actually
shorten the time necessary to fatten
the animal. Every day gained in this
way is, of course, so much on the
profit side of the account, and we'll
worth considering when the final bal
ance is struck.
These things being so, it is evident
ly sound business to use the "food
tonic" Thousands are doing it, as
the increased demand for it proves.
There is abundant evidence Of the
value Of this "food tonic" idea in the
actual practice of interested parties,
but an added force is given by the
unqualified Endorsement of such men
as Profs. Winslow, Quitman and Fin
ley Dun-men known everywhere as
authorities on such subjects. They
tell us that bitter tonics are neces-
sary to strengthen digestion, that iron
is the best known blood builder, that
nitrate cleanes the system of poison
Gus matter, and these are the ingre-
dients which enter into the proper
"food tonic
Using a "food tonic" then, be-
comes practical farm economy-one
of the steps which lead to satisfactory
profit.
That it gives a great return is
proved by well-attested experiments
in one case the outlay for the "food
tonic" being returned with a profit
Of 235 per cent. In view of this
fact we are led to this conclusion
no man owning live stock, farmer,
feeder or breeder, is rich enough to
leave the "food tonic" idea out of
his calculation when business posi-

Trains were delayed for an hour or
more. None of the trainmen were hurt
in any case.

AFTER GOVERNOR WAKEFIELD.

There are many signs that the old
Democratic organization is determined
to oppose Governor Warfield for anoth-
er term and. this means that the Gov
ernor must either make an aggressive
fight for the honor or must step down
and out. The Governor has not dis
played much aggressiveness as fighter
and this is the more remarkable when
it is remembered that he has often eX-
hibited the nerve to go against his own
party on important issues, as for eX-
ample the Poe A mendment His indis-
position to engage in contest with the
organization is attributed by some peo-
pie to cowardice, while to others he gets
the credit Of sizing up the situation and
recognizing that he could not success
fully cope with it in fight. To still
others the Governors lack of boldness
and his failure to take advantage of his
popularity among many classes for his
many sterling qualities, is ineXplicable.
New interest was added this week by a
speech made in Baltimore before the
Concord Club by State Senator Cor
man, son Of the late u. S. Senator.
The Senator from Howard county is an
open and aggressive fighter and he left
no one in doubt as to his opposition to
Governor Warfeld. He even went so
far as to say that Governor Warfeld
presented 1.-THE sad spectacle of man,
elected as Democrat, who failed to do
what he was elected to do" The Gov
ernor was pictured as "straying away
from the sound and safe principles Of
the patron saint of regular Democracy
Andrew Jackson. Mr.. Germans
speech has been followed by the semi
official announcement that our own dis
tinguished fellow citizen, the Hon.
Murray Vandiver, has concluded that
the mantle of the Governorship is just
about his size and that he would be
willing to accept the nomination. The
nomination of Mr.. Vandiyer, if the
Governor is to be thrown down, seems
to be most fitting. 1t would bring on a
clean-cut fight between the advocates
of progressive government and the old
German regime that would be most
welcome just at the time when new
conditions are to be met owing to the
death of Mr.. German and other old time
influential leaders.

To Our Trade and Friends

On and after February 1st we have
arranged to change our plan of doing
business to cash basis, opening ace
counts with only those who arrange for
same by note payable at specified
time.
For years we have tried the credit
business but find former methods are
not adequate to the present. Goods
now are sold on an entirely different
plan. Cash buyers buy where they can
buy the cheapest, and in order to meet
this class OF trade we are compelled to
buy and sell for cash. Everything in
the hardware line is advancing in price
and manufacturers are greatly behind
in filling orders, but notwithstanding
these facts by buying and selling for
cash and contracting for goods before
advances for 1907 were made. we will
be able to furnish our trade with goods
at very little advance for sometime to
come.
We are now receiving three carloads
OF field fencing, barbed wire and
nails, all of which have advanced sever
al times In the market since we made
our contract. and we are prepared to
make liberal offer to our trade during
the month OF January, giving special
prices far below the market value.
Contracts must be made before Febru-
airy lst, after which time the price will
be advanced to the market value. Farm
ers contemplating buying field fence
would lind it to their interest to place
their orders at once. Besides the adj
vantage given in price our fencing this
year is better galvanized and made
with stronger stays. Please do not
forget these special offers are for this
month

Roll Today.

AS expected, the new cotton bales
rolled into Americas yesterday al
quite lively rate. The first big load
was six bales from the plantation OF
Mr.. T. B. Hooks and this was follow
ed later by wagons bringing from one
to three and four bales.
And cotton money was soon much
in evidence here, delighted the wist-
full gaze of the merchant.
Yesterday, it might be said, ushered
in the new cotton season, although it
will be a week yet before the bales
begin to come at the rate of 500 to
800 daily, as will be the case.
Picking has been going forward this
week at a good rate, and it is quite
within the bounds of probability that
a hundred bales will be marketed in
Americus today This number would
increase the cash circulating medium
very considerably.
For the fleecy-the finest grades-is
worth II 12 cents in Americus; and
a good bale nets about $65.
Buyers and warehousemen are ex-
asperated at the wire situation, as
under present condition, resulting
from the strike, it is impossible for
them to secure market reports About
the only cotton market news received
is phoned from Albany or Macon
Cotton men hope, however, that
conditions here will soon be improved,
certainly before the rush of cotton
comes.

Interesting Program Arranged By Y. N. G. A. for
Corner Stone Laying,

The corner stone of the Americus

building will be laid with appropriate
services on Wednesday, September
4th.
AS the weather is generally uncom-
fortably warm in the afternoon, at
that season, it has been decided to
conduct the services at night, and
the laying of the corner stone will be
under the glare of electric lights, a
somewhat unique performance, some
thing that has probably never before
been done in Georgia. 1t is in keep
ing with the spirit of Americus, that
refuses to follow in old beaten tracks
and reaches out for something new
and progressive.

the proceedings.
The services will begin with hymn

of Prof. Mcneil, followed by prayer
by one of the local clergy.

Still Living.

NORFOLK, VA, August 23.-What
is believed to be the last of the nat
ional reunions that will be held by
veterans of the Mexican war took
place today at the jamestown eX-
position. Of the $4,000 men who
composed the army that was sent to
Mexico sixtey years ago, about 5000
are still living. The average age OF
the survivors is Sc years and on this
account only a handful of the veterans
were able to attend the annual re-
union this year. The meeting was
held in Convention hall with Louis
F. Beoler of Baltimore, president of
the National Association of Mexican
War veterans, presiding. The associa-
ton had no business to transact, and
the gathering was entirely in the
nature of a reunion. The aged sveter-
ans were the recipients of numerous
courtesies from the exposition man
agement and exhibitors.

NO CHANGE IN THE STRIKE
AmeriCuS is Still in a Bottled Up Condition
Cotton Men Protest Inability Get Market RpOAmrus Has Had
Two Weeks of the Strike

With today ends the second week
of the telegraphers' strike, and in Am
ericus the situation remains the same
as in the beginning. No messages are
handledshere at all, and the only tel
egrams" received are those coming by
mail from outside points.
Important cablegrams sent from
Liverpool to Americus cotton houses
are taken off the wires at Savannah
and sent here by mail under a red
two cent stap.
And people in other lines of bust
ness get the same treatment
Americus warehousemen get the on
ly market quotations sent here over
the long distance telephone lines from
Albany. In that city is a commercial
telegraph Office which is doing busi-
ness and is snot affected by the big
strike.
Would that Americus was progress
sive enough to have one like it.
The country generally is rapidly re-
suming business Geographically, and
only small interior towns, like ours,
are bottled up.
1t is said that the Western Union
is taking a very firm grip upon the
situation, even in the smaller towns
of the state, and where operators re-
fuse to resume work they are fired
and the offices closed, if there are not
others to handle them.
1t is said that every telegraph oper
ator who went on strike two weeks ago
must make individual application for
Reinstatement before he will be taken
back.

FEW JOYS IN
OLD AGE
Lord Brampton, at 90, Does Not
Find Life Pleasant.

LONDON, August 23.-One of the
present silly newspaper topics, How
to Live to Be Hundred Years Old,
has shown the popular idea is still
strong that it is a good idea to live
to a great age. This view is contro-
verted by Lord Brampton, formerly
the famous criminal judge, Sir Henry
Hawkins. He is ninety, and having
retired from the bench on a pension
mas the leisure to enjoy the evening OF
his life. But he does not find it parti-
2ularly enjoyable.
He said sadly to an interviewer
"Old age has very few compensations
Leisure is not pleasant. 1t fills me
with regret that l am no longer able
to take an active part in the life o
the world"
