COBB COUNTY FAIR.

The Cobb County Fair will be
opened at Cogburn Park, on October
3rd and continue four days, ending
on the 8th.
There are three things that we
should like to impress upon the
readers of the Journal.
First, that all who have creditable
products should enter them and
compete for the premiums, thus
making an exhibition that will in
terest, instruct and stimulate the
people generally.
Second, we hope there will be a
very large attendance in order that
our people may see what our SPLENDID
county can produce.
In the third place, this Fair will,
to very large extent, represent
the Cobb county exhibit at the State
Fair, and it will not only afford an
opportunity for the people to see
that part Of the State Fair, but by
contributing to the success of the
County Fair they will contribute to
the success of the exhibit at the
State Fair, and thus help to win
First Prize and retain for Cobb the
proud distinction of being the Banner
County of Georgia.
1t is worth money to the property
owners of Cobb county to possess
the distinction we mention. 1t adds
to the value of farm property and
town property alike. Our real estate
men and boosters in dealing with
outsiders who wish to invest in lands
are backed up in their claims when
they can show that for a series of
years Cobb has won first premium
for the best agricultural display in
the State.
AS our County Fair is the nucleus
of the State exhibit we urge our
farmers to make it a success by
carrying fine displays of produce and
we urge all our people to attend in
order to get the benefit of seeing
what Cobb can produce and in order
to make it financial success so as
to Tighten the burdens of the public
spirited men who have it in charge.
We have won the First prize
several times. Let's do it again
this year.

OLD COBB BEATS TEXAS,
LETTER FROM Mr.. MCKINNEY,

Sulpher Springs, Texas, Aug, 27
Editor Marietta Journal:
| Being born and reared in ole
Cobb will write a short letter and
tell Of few conditions that prevail
among us at present.
We are confronted with a most
serious problem just now. On &C
count of the dry weather the corr
crop is almost complete failure
There is not half a crop of cotton
and very little feed stuff in the way
of forage. Stock water is very
scarce, pastures dried up, but re.
Gently we have had several good
showers which caused the grass to
put up and now there is pretty
good picking for the cattle but still
we have no hay to winter them on.
The peach crop was almost a
failure. Very few Irish potatoes;
scarcely any gardens. In the
spring almost every one sowed
turnip seed but the hot sun killed
the plants as soon as they came up.
We have sowed twice and no
turnips but will try again as soon as
the ground is dry enough to work
as we got soaker today.
The town is almost without water
but the dust is plentiful; in fact
that is the only thing that we have
got plenty of right now.
Sulpher Springs is a nice little
town situated near the center of
Hopkins County with two railroads,
five churches, four good schools,
one business college, oil mill, COM
press, box and crate factory, four
large gins and several conveniences
for the public; in fact every thing
except plenty of good water, such
as is to be found in old Cobb County.

1899, when l came to Texas and
began railroading.
My father, J. K. Mckinney visit
ed me in May, but could not stay
until he got ready to go back.
Said he longed for a drink of Geor-
gia water as he called it.
Any one seeing this letter wish
ing to write me | will take pleasure
in answering same. AS this is my
first attempt will ring off for fear
of the waste basket.
Respectfully Yours,

A PHASE OF THE CAMPAIGN.

There is one phase of the prohibi-
ton fight in Georgia to which we
call attention in order that our read
ers may be fully informed.
There are several big breweries in
the State, one in Atlanta, two in Sa-
vannah, one in Macon, one in Au-
gusta and possibly others.
Those breweries are running on
full time making so-called near beer,
large quantities of which are also
shipped into the State by breweries
in the West.
The breweries are very we'll salts
fled with the situation. They are will
ing to let we'll enough alone" and
postpone any change in the law I'M
til they are sure they can control the
Legislature. AT present the Legis-
lature is controlled by the Prohibi-
tionists and the breweries fear the
passage of a law knocking out near
beer.
Our information is that there is q
division among certain prominent
politicians in Atlanta who are well
known anti-Prohibitionists, some OF
whom are for Judge Russell while
others are opposed to making the
issue this year.
These certain politicians are also
interested in getting control of the
State and County Executive Com.
mittees for next years campaign. E
very tremendous power in shaping
State politics.
The Prohibitionists have not be
come active yet. Hon. Pope Brow
is for prohibition, but there has de
veloped no organized movement t,

but to fight the combined money q
the whiskey and beer interests would
doubtless strain his resources. til
estimated that the legitimate ex
penses of the campaign will rul
from fifteen to twenty-five Thousand
dollars.

Uncle Gid is not what you would
call book farmer. He knows things,
but he has read the lesson in the soil,
and in the air, in watching results
and in the sweat OF bis face he has
learned what other farmers ought to
know. Once a distinguished book
farmer, who held a high State office
intimated to Uncle Gid that he didn't
know any too much.

piled the old gentleman, "but never
broke at farming when cotton was
eighteen cents a pound!"
And that's just what the book
farmer had done.
There is more in the man than
there is in the land" is Uncle Gid's
idea, and he got it from his father, for
4 just after the war Mr. Morris took the
old home place and made it produce
better crops than it had done in the
days OF slavery, and the quotation was
what his father said when he saw what
the son was doing. We all, here in
Cobb, know what dynamo OF energy
Mr.. Morris is, and his energy is vel
directed.
Mr.. Morris land was broken up last

grass was dead be began the blowing

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is ouly one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be DESTROYED
forever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by Catarrh which is nothing but an
inhamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.

I've got a good one on Uncle Gid

1t is about the only time l ever heard
OF when the old man had to crawfish.
Mr.. Mcintyre lives just across the
road from Uncle Gid on six acre tract
for which he gave $1,000. The other
day he began to banter Uncle Gid for
trade for the Miles place, which Mr.
Morris recently bought.
81 have the prettiest place between
Marietta and the river" said Mr..
Mcintyre.
"That is the right way to feel, !" said
Uncle Gid. "a man ought to feel that
he has pretty home if he really las
one. But think | have the prettiest
place between Marietta and the river"
~ would not take thousand dollars
an acre for my place." said Mr. Nc
Intyre, inching up a little closer to
Uncle Gid.
"Why, my place is prettier place
than yours" replied Uncle Gid, land
l would take ten thousand dollars fol-
ten acres OF mine.'
Mr.. Mcintyre went away and came
back in a little while
"Were you ioking?" he asked.
"Why, no." said Uncle Gid, with a
mischievous chuckle.
"Then, said Mr.. Mcintyre, "You
start down there where the rock wall
begins and measure me off five
hundred feet front and measure back
from the road eight hundred feet and
l will bring you a check for ten
thousand dollars"
And then your Uncle Gid had to
crawl.
"I'll ask my wife about it." he said
with laugh, but Mr.. Mcintyre is
waiting in vain for the answer.

and thinks the town has a bright
future.
The county commissioners for
maily approved a prior action in
allowing the Victory school dis.

Upper Fairview are both out now,
and leaves six districts in the

and is a 36-inch cast steel bell.
The tone is fully equal to that of

1t has been hung on the second
brace of the water works tower,
and will be operated by. little

town will be divided into three

or tap for each, the district south
of the track being one ward, on
the north another, and the east
side of town will comprise another
While it is supposed that in case
of fire, someone will notify the

attached to the bell at the station
so that anyone can give the alarm
from there.
