4non EaIIn in Land Dispute.

Ivy al ~
Secretary of State Phil Cook has
announced his decision in regard to
the disputed county line between
Johnson and Laurens counties, giving
the land in dispute, some 500 acres, to
Johnson county. This land was sup
posed by many to belong to Laurens
county, but the decision of the secre-
tary of the state merely sustains the
survey recently made by Captain L. M.
Roberts.
BY running the line out, however,
Iaurens county is given some 900
acres. which, before this time, was
supposed to belong to Johnson county
SO the matter is about equalized at the
finish.
The dispute was brought up by rea
son Of a homicide, which took place
on the contested territory. Both coun'
ties claimed the prisoner, and con-
tended that each had the right to Try
the case.

experts, assigned to Georgia by the
United States agricultural department,
are mingling with the farmers of the
state, giving them instructions in for
estry, dairy work, seed selection, cul-
ture methods, crop rotation, road build

living in the cities of the state have
hardly been aware of the movement,
but the farmers in many sections have
already felt the good effects, for the
number Of experts placed in the state
by the government has increased SO
rapidly that there are now in the

A Bloodless Fight Between Tab'ss
and a Habit-The Tablet Wins.
At the age of 90, Clarence had good
digestion. He had gastric juice tha'
could dissolve doughnuts and turn ap-
ple-skins into good blood corpuscles'
At the age of "a he began to be pro-
fuse about the waist and lean back
wards. He also began to cultivate sew
eral chins. In his new-found pride he
began to think 1t his duty to gorge
himself on everything, the good and the
bad, for appetite feeds on appetite-and
every good thing is abused.
His pictures showed that he took on
weight after he put his collar on.
At the age of 26 Clarence married
and went to boarding. On top OF All
this, he attended oyster suppers ana
wine dinners, which, reduced the size
of his collar from 1879 to 10. With
still abiding faith in the strength OF
his stomach he gulped his meals, ana
chewed them afterwards.

hear an inward voice--a warning from

feel bloated-and belching became

He began to be light eater-and

his meals absolutely disguised at the

And he suffered good many other
things with his stomach that he could
not explain. but that made him

thing like this, about the truly wonder
