The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby de
stroying the foundation of the disease,
and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and as
sisting nature in doing its work. The
proprietors have so much faith in it's
curative powers that they offer One
Hundred Dollars for any case that it
fails to cure. Send for list of testimon-
ials. Address:

grow less than 40 bushels of corn on
an acre OF. ground. The average yield
of corn is less than &c bushels, where
as it ought to be 40 bushels.
There are enough apple trees in
bearing in this country to supply this
people if the demand We're twice what
it is, and leave an enormous surplus
for export, if the average farmer did
not think his orchard was finished
when he set out the trees. Thou
sands Of orchards are left to the in
sect pests that ravage them, leaving
the trees so weakened that a slight
frost in April or a drought in July
destroys the crop. Indeed, the farm
er who gives the proper attention to
his orchard is a rare exception.
There are enough colonies of bees
in the United States to give us thrice
the honey we need. if the proper at
tention were given them. Then,
there are sheep. Thousands of farm
ers think a sheep needs no care.
They turn their flocks loose to shift
for themselves, and that is the chief
reason why the price of mutton is
so high
There are enough hens in America

eggs, if given proper attention. and
there are enough cows to more than
double the supply of butter, If men
knew how to farm and had the in
clination, the energy and the dill
gence to do it.
The truthfulness of this cannot be
gainsaid We here in Georgia krtow
full well that it is a truthful por-
traiture of conditions as they exist.
On many farms the output is less than
a half bale of cotton to the acre, when
a better method of culture. a more
intelligent system, and especially a
closer application of the farmer to his
work, would increase the output to
two-thirds or a full bale to the acre
1t has been shown that over 100 bush
els Of corn can be produced in this
vicinity to the acre on a test, that
60 to so bushels of oats can likewise
be made. And when it has been dem
onstrated that this is the case the
failure to measure up nearer to the
high standard of production is a re-
Election on our system of agricul-
ture that makes it impossible to an
swer those who criticise it.

turn an old man adrift on the world.
The soldiers home is the property
OF the people of the state 1t stands a
monument to noble sentiment, that
sentiment which dictates that a peo-
pie in the strength of prosperity shall
not forget the men who offered their
bodies and their lives on the field of
battle in the time of necessity. That
old man who has been badged with
dishonor and turned adrift. fought
once for the women of the South. It
seems to us that the memory Of this
should outweigh the words or deeds
of discourtesy and INSTRUMENTATION of
fered under the temporary influence
of senile irritation. OF course the old
man did wrong if he offered the least
discourtesy, but his wrong did not
merit the other and greater wrong Of
Punishment from the refuge he had
sought.
We question the authority of the
trustees of the home to take this ac-
ton. The veteran was committed to
/ the home under due process of law
otherwise he would not have been
| there. off he violated any law he
should be taken before the courts and
punished. for the law recognizes neith-
er person, property, nor age, but only
Justice. If he violated only a rule
some punishment less condign should
have been visited upon him.
Without knowing anything at all of
the merits of this particular case, it is
safe to say that the managers, all
prominent and patriotic Georgians, did
not act as they did without the closest
investigation and the calmest consider
alton of all the facts bearing upon it.
1t is manifestly impossible to conduct
such Home if there is not to be a
/ proper regard for whatever discipline
the managers may establish. If each
and every inmate should be allowed to
exercise his own free will, should be
permitted to obey or disobey as the
fancy seized him, to be polite or i'm
| pertinent as the whim possessed him,
chaos of the worst type would mark
the life of the institution and there
would speedily be a cIamor for manag-
ers and officials capable of conducting
it in an orderly and becoming man
ner, We can all regret that the con
duct of any inmate should
have forced his dismissal, bat
this might be far better than
the Introduction of an insubordinate
1 spirit that would almost wreck the
Home. The Rome Tribune, it appears
to US, has taken the wrong argument
in this matter Kindness, gentleness,
affectionate regard, all these things
should mark the conduct of the Home,
but certainly the officials cannot be
called upon to submit to insolence or
contemptuous disregard of the rules.
and certainly the managers would not
have adopted the drastic course they
did in this case without sufficient
/ reason.

THE FOOLISHNESS OF BROWNS
ENEMIES.

One of the silliest of the contemp-
| tibly small efforts made to discredit
! Governor Brown in the eyes of the
people was the recent wild alarum that
the governor had treated with con-
tempt the memory of the immortal Lee
by completely ignoring his birthday.
failing to issue a proclamation de-
claring it legal holiday. What ass
| mime brain conceived this brilliant
thought is not known It perhaps
cropped out in an Atlanta newspaper
office where men of vivid magma
ton are kept employed apparently for
the sole purpose of disclosing how
foolish and absurd they can make
themselves by just such breaks as
this.
OF course, some of the Smith or
gans took the thing up at once. IT
was too good, they thought, to lose.
and fiery attacks upon the governor
began to appear, appeals to the old
soldiers to utterly discard a chief ex-
ecutive who would so far forget him
self, his duty to the state and the
South, as to fail in SO important a
duty as declaring Lees birthday a
holiday by public proclamation. But
Just as the weIkin began to ring with
their senseless cries the statement an
peared on official authority that no
governor had ever issued such a proc
lamation, that Smith in his two wears
of official life had signaIIy failed to
discover its necessity or adyis-
ability and that Governor Brown was
under no necessity, either by law or
by custom, to declare Lees birthday
a legal holiday when it was already
such by state statute.
AS soon as it was discovered that
Hoke Smith had been guilty of the
same frightful breach of patriotism
there was subsistence among the or
gans that reminded one very strongly
of the picture of a whipped dog going
around the corner with its tail be-
tween its legs and its face buried on
its chest to avoid recognition.
The funny part of it is that every
attack that has been made on Govern
or Brown has been shown to be equal
ly as senseless as this latest one, ev-
cry one has evidently emanated from
the same source, and every one has
proved veritable boomerang. The
governor can certainly congratulate
himself on the utter foolishness of
his adversaries. If he viii continue
to sit steady in the boat he will be
elected next time either without oppo-
sition or by the greatest majority any
governor has received in many, many
years.

THE TROUBLE AT THE SOLDIERS
HOME.

Considerable comment has been ar
oused throughout the state by the re-
cent action of the Board of Trustees
of the State Soldiers Home in turning
out of the institution an old veteran
who was charged with, and presum-
ably shown to have been guilty Of,
INSTRUMENTATION and Importance to the
matron.
Among some papers there is a de-
cided disposition to criticize and con-
denim this action of the managers IF
the Home. Take the Rome Tribune,
for instance. That paper devotes over
half column to expressing its dis
appreciation of the course pursued. It
insists that if the old soldier was in
subordinate and impertinent, if he
could not get along with the matron,
the proper thing to do was to dismiss
the matron and keep the old veteran
in the home. AS the Tribune appar-
emily views it, the bushes Of the
managers is to support the inmates If
the Home regardless of their conduct,
or at least merely infict some pun
ishment less condign than a dismissal
from the privileges Of the Home.
The Tribune in this connection has
this to say:
We must all of US make allowance
for the whims and crochets of old age,
remembering that some day we will be
old and whimsical and crotchety our
selves. We do not expect a child to be
always wise, polite and obedient, nor
should we demand this Of old people,
Yet no one would dream of turning
child out of doors, driving him from
home because he was disobedient. He
must be punished, but not to that ex-
tent. 1t is even more heart1ess to

THRIFTLESS FARMTNc THE BANE
OF THE LAND.

The Washington Post takes a new
tack in discussing high prices of food
supplies and the causes that have
lead up to them It does not believe
that the trouble lies half so much
in the flocking of people to the cities
instead Of to the farms, as in the
triftless and trifling methods of a
vast number of those already in the
country. A more thorough, up-to-date
agriculture in all lines it apparently
believes will do more to solve the
problems now confronting the coun-
try than any mere increase in the
number of farms and farmers. AS
it points out, with better methods
the same number CT farmers on the
same number of acres would enor-
mously increase the production of the
staple articles, furnishing ample for
the needs of the nation and at the
same time immeasureably benefitting
the producers themselves. The farm
er who jumps the output of his farm
by % to so per cent has gone long
ways towards helping to equalize the
supply of foods to the existing de-
mand
There is a good deal of meat for
thought in what The Post has to
say along this line That paper,
which is always sane in it's treat
ment of public questions, depicts con-
ditions in this way:
President Brown, of the New York
Central railroad, has induced that cor
poration to acquire .worn-out farms
in the Empire State, build them up,
and sell them to farmers who know
how to farm. Mr.. Brown thinks that
what is needed is better farming.
