Just Another SANDER of Another
Little Paper

THE little bought-up weeklies that are sup
porting the Deserters and the Do-nothings,
are becoming quite frantic against Yours
Truly. In near-editorial, which appeared
in one of these few days ago, appeared the
following gem:
Tom Watson's satanic effort to break up and
dissolute the Farmers Union of Georgia, through
his mouth pieces, at Union city convention this
week, simply the work of a man who has sold
his soul to the Devil, and is sowing the seed of
discord, disruption, and anarchy against the
Church (from which our civilization was formed),
the laws of the land and those who make the
laws, against good government and those who
work for the benefit of good government; against
the poor, the meek and the lOwy, and against
everything that is just and right, that shows the
least indication to thwart his power.
The wicked person referred to in that para
graph is mentioned in terms of grateful en-
zogy By President Charles II. Barrett IN his
history of has great organization. In every
possible way have shown my friendship for
the Union. But there began to be crooked
ness in the Union City BUNCH and it became
a duty to denounce it. 1t must have been
spectacle worth paying to see, aohen Duck
arorth returned to the Union treasury the
thousand dollars aohich he had been using IN
has p71vate business for the last taco gears.
AS to John Lee, when it was first suggested
to him that he retire in the interests of har-
mony, he snorted defiance. After my friends
had had two rounds with him, however, he
gave up the candy, with the meekness Of
thoroughly whipped man,--whereupon, my
friends generously contributed to the fifty
dollar fund which will enable Johnsey to lay
in supply of arnica salve.
Mr.. Cabaniss is good man. I wrote him
letter of congratulations, and will do all in
my power to help him build up an organiza-
ton which the Union City bunch had very
nearly ruined.

INCH AND A QUARTER OF RAIN.
Heavy Shower Last Night Good For
the Corn.

A sudden shower last evening
made the farmers happy. Heavy
clouds came up from the northwest
about four o'clock, giving three
fourths inch of water before supper
time. The rain was general over the
country and improved greatly the
condition Of the corn. Another half
inch fell during the night.
Harvest in this county is practi-
calIy over except for the wheat still
standing in the shocks. This, how
ever, was not hurt by the rain and
will be threshed as soon as machines
can be secured.

HINTS FOR FARMERS
How to Save the Manure.

Where 1t Is absolutely necessary to
store manure 1t should be kept under
cover il possible. where 1t will be free
from heavy rains and melting snow,
which cause excessive teaching If the
manure is not properly piled. A COW
cred manure shed, with tight concrete
floor, Is desirable when daily hauling
cannot be practiced.
Manure can be piled, however, so
that there will be small loss of fer
tility. The piles should be placed on
tight board floor or on bottom Of
puddled clay and should be made with
perpendicular sides, the top of the pile
sloping toward the middle so that the
manure will be kept moist. Piles
should be deep enough so that the
heaviest rains or SHOWS will not wet
clear through to the bottom and thus
result in teaching. The important
point Is to keep the manure constantly
wet, since fire fanging or heating,
which causes serious loss, occurs only
in dry manure.
Where phosphate fertilizers are to
be applied to the soil they may be
mixed with manure at the rate of one
pound of rock phosphate or floats per
day for each animal. This should be
sprinkledr in the manure cutters, so as
to be thoroughly mixed with the ma
nure as it is hauled out.-E. b. Hart,
University of Wisconsin, in Country
Gentleman.

received these dainty notes, and ten
little girls eagerly awaited the com

Patty was at the door TO receive
them, and as each one entered she
gave her necklace Of popcorn sewed
upon satin ribbon, each ribbon a diff
ferent shade.
Up In the sitting room burned a
bright fire in the CRATE, and the guests
were allowed to pop the corn, each one
In turn telling a ghost story. Such
fun as these missiles had! Nor was
the fun any less when they were ush-

the decorations were corn color, and,
besides many good party things to eat,
popcorn was served In buttered, S,

received a pretty canvas bag filed
