NOT THE TIME FOR THAT
Scotsmen Objected to Mixture of Good
Whisky and Religious Con-
vereatiop

Owen Seaman, editor of Punch, was
the principal guest at dinner OF the
London Authors club recently, which
was followed by a discussion on
''Humor." Mr.. Seaman began with a
story deprecating the spelling of good
dinner by any discussion at all.
There were three characters in the
story-a bluebottle and two Scots
men. The story at once struck a note
of probability by showing the Scots
men drinking whisky. The bluebottle
buzzed on the pane; otherwise ST.
lence reigned.
This was broken by one of the
Scotsmen trying to locate the blue
bottle with geological exactitude. Said
the Scotsman:
Sandy, I'm thinking if yon fly is a
birdie or beastie." -.
The other replied: Man, don't spoil
good whisky with religious converse

How Armour Got His Rate.


In the late '70s, after several years
of large receipts of hogs and low
prices at the Kansas City stock yards.
eastern receipts began to drop off and
prices nearly doubled. The Armour
Packing Company had considerable
pork product in the cellars here. They
wanted it shipped east and railroad
rates were considered too high. A
better rate was requested from the
railroads, but they refused. The late
P. D. Armour said: Cali right, gen.
tlemen, you haul none of our prod
ucts."
In less than "a hours Mr.. Armour
bought steamboat and two barges IN
st. Louis for $4,000 and headed them
for Kansas City, and in another "a
hours the railroads were taking Mr..
Armour's product east at his own hg-

To Get Good Fruit.

Go over the blackberry and rasp-
berry vines for signs Of rust and in
sect disease Cut out and burn every
doubtful vine.
1t is an easy matter to make a
valuable tree out Of a poor one by
top-grafting.
Always plant small fruits on deep,
rich aluvial soil, one which carries
plenty Of humus.
You must not forget that all berries
are forest fruits and generally grow
in the shade and are great lovers OF
moisture.
Young trees will grow later in the
fall than older ones and the sap-run
should be checked as early as pos
sible.

The Silver Maple.
~--.ls...ia5~ z s.''-7~a a -

Silver maple seems to be valuable
chiefly because Of its rapid growth
The wood Is rather soft, light in
weight and not strong or durable. 1t
succeeds in rather low, moist land
where many other trees do not thrive.
It is rather subject to insects and
fungous diseases and the brittle limbs
are quite easily broken off in storms.
Although the fuel value of the wood
is not high, paintings are worth more
for fuel than for anything else. When
planted either alone or with other
varieties, the trees should be spaced
about six feet apart each way.

We wish to call the attention of the
good people of Marietta and the mayor
and city council to the condition of the
so-called Lacy avenue on Campbell
hill. We have been taxpayers ofCobb
county, myself and Mrs. Gates, for
the past fifteen years, our father, G. M.
Lacy, since 1860. We have spent more
money in the upkeep fthe streets and
roads about our property than the
county or city. We have been city tax
payers for four years. The city has
not spent one cent around our prop
erty. We have done it all One year
ago we spent SO 90 IL cleaning out
Lacy avenue. Today it is hard to tell
the street from settlement road in
the country. We have many times
called the attention of the city and
county authorities to said condition,
but to no avail. Do you think that
this is right? We have had prospec-
tive buyers who have gone to look at
our property ana have reported to us
these conditions and said as long as
such conditions continued our proper
ty was not marketable. Now, what
shall we do? Bring suit for damages?
No, we do not want to. We are help
less women, cannot vote and use our
influence with the politicians, but we
ask the good citizens Of Marietta who
knew our dear old father, G. NJ. Lacy,
to help us.

CONGRESSIONAL ELECTION.

1t is being quietly talked in various
counties OF the seventh district that q
surprise awaits the democracy in the
result OF the November election for
member of Congress.
The fact that several counties gave
majorities for the republican ticket
two years ago, and the general apathy
of democrats, are the reasons given
for this forecast
Cobb county has always taken rank
at the top of the column as an over
whelmingly democratic county. 1t is
still democratic to the core, and, with
a full vote OF her loyal democrats, she
will again roll up a tremendous ma
iority for the Hon. Gordon Lee.
1t is hoped the democracy OF the
district Will remain wide awake, and
see to it that the republican candidate
meets with an overwhelming defeat.
Let every single democrat of Cobb
come out and vote.

From the Atlanta Constitution.
Governor Brown leaves this after
noon for his farm in Cherokee county
to spend Sunday and part of Monday.
1t is to this farm that Governor
Brown will go when he retires from
office next summer. He will still keep
his home in Marietta, but will live a
large part of the year in Cherokee. He
is making extensive plans lor estab-
fishing on the old place, which has
been in his family fifty years, a mod
ern- up-to-date farm home with all city
conveniences Moreover, he has plans
for some fine agricultural work.
While attending an agricultural fair
in Marietta on Thursday Governor
Brown was telling of his plans to pillow
his ground Is inches deep in the fall
so as to catch the winter moisture and
conserve it.
That is all right for you, governor,
because you have enough teams to do
the work"
Il only had two mules" replied the
governor, "and borrowed two from a
neighbor"
Then he asked the man how many
he had.
"Only one" replied the farmer from
Cobb.
well, you and three neighbors go
into kind of cooperative arrange
ment. You get their three mules and
pillow all four of them one day; then
let Jones have all four the second
day, and Smith all four mules the third
day, and Brown all four mules the
fourth day"
This idea seemed to strike the Cobb
county man strongly, and within a
half hour he was back to tell the gov
ernor that he had already agreed with
three friends as suggested. 1t had
never occurred to him before.

LILLAGORE STIRS UP

Bathhouse Proprietor Claims He
Is Victim of Religion.

OCEAN GROVE, Oct. 21.-Charging
that the Ocean Grove Association, I'M
der the cloak of religion, had ruined
his bathing business. T. w. Lillagore
has stirred this city from circumference
to centre. From end to end and across
the middle the city is one seething de-
bate ON the merits of Lillagore and the
association.
Lillagore has declared himself in an
interview published in an Asbury Park
newspaper in which he lams the as
sociation in unmistakable terms. He
claims that by a gradual advance in
ground rents he has been forced out
of business, and his bitterness against
the association is deep.
The Rev. DR.. Aaron e. Ballard, the
newly elected president of the asso-
citation, has refused to be quoted on
the squabble beyond saying that no
attention will be paid to the charges
brought by Lillagore.
