A RESOLUTION.

Whereas, cooperation among all
the farmers of Cobb county in the
formation of farm clubs would re-
suit in great good to the county and
its agricultural interests and keep
us in the forefront and enable us to
retain the honors of being the ban
ner county of the State; and,
Whereas the farmers of our coun-
ty are not as we'll organized as they
should be:
Therefore be it resolved, by the
Powder Springs Farmers Club at
their meeting today that we call up
on all the active and enthusiastic
farmers to meet and organize a
club in each militia district in the
county, and we recommend that said
clubs not allow a membership Of
over IS members, as it is Our .expe-
rience that it is better to have a
small club composed of active and
enthusiastic farmers than to have
larger clubs composed of men who
do not take the proper interest in
the work of the club.
Resolved, further, That all of the
clubs when formed, be requested to
Join in a movement looking toward
the formation of County Farmers
Club to hold its meeting in Mari
eta quarterly 10 he composed of all
lie District Gibbs, and also look
ing toward having held a big Far
mers institute once each year in
some central point in the county.
Resolved, further, That copy OF
these resolutions be published in due
county papers.

single as many years as the number
of times the cuckoo, when first heard

Cultivate a Gentle Voice.

I would say to all: use your gentlest
voice at home. Watch it day by day as
a pearl Of great price, for it will be
worth more to you in days to come
than the best pearl hid in the sea. A
kind voice is joy, like larks song,
to a hearth at home. Train it to sweet
tones now and it will keep in tune
through life.-Elihu Burritt.

Fruit and Vegetable Juices.

Fruit and vegetables juices, on 40
count of their organic salts, are OF
great value as cleansers and in the
elimination Of waste water from the
system. 1t Is always best to remove
pulp of fruit before eating, as the cell
lular walls are indigestible and fill the
system with waste matter. 1t is al
ways the cellular walls that cause in
digestion and not the fruit Juice.
