The Fulton County Bank, which
bes an business 3 years ago with
capital of $4,000, on January
4th, declared a cash dividend OF
50, 100000, 1t being 6 per cent. on
the par value of the stock, set over

The Nimble Dollar.

The old time merchants used
to buy half a years supply of a
given article at a time. He lock-
ed up all his own money and all
he could borrow in his goods. If
he turned his whole stock in a
year, he might be doing fairly
well.
To-day it is the ambition of live
business men to turn their capital
oftener. A five per cent. mar
gin on sales under the old system
was not a living profit. Under
the modern system of quick sales,
it should yield a handsome re-
turn.
The one means by which this
modern idea can be realized is by
persistent advertising, reason
ably proportioned as necessary
part of regular expenses.
The amount of: business that a
store does is in proportion to the
persistence with which it solicits
business. Consequently the store
that advertises is the store that
turns its capital frequently. Such
a merchant does not need to get
as much of a profit on each sale
as the slow turning store does.
Wherefore it pays the public to
patronize the stores that adver-
tise because they can afford to
sell cheaper.

Sweet Clover.

So much is being said in favor
of sweet clover for poor land,
that we cannot refrain from pass
ing it along, Sweet clover is TN
known to a majority of Fulton
county people, and in states
where it is known, it has been
considered a nuisance. 1t is a
coarse, bushy kind of plant when
it grows singly; but when grown
in sod it is fine enough in stem
for good hay. In places where
grass is an object, it is rapidly
finding favor. 1t has the power
to grow on very poor land, and
at the same time, it is so strong
a feeder on nitrogen drawn from
the air, that it enriches the soil.
The bacteria developed by this
plant is the same as that of al
falfa; hence, two or three years.
growth of sweet clover will in
oculate the soil sufficiently to in
sure a catch" of alfalfa, if de-
sired. Instead of now being con-
sidered a weed and a nuisance,
great areas of sweet clover have
been sown in sections where good
spring pasture is needed. Like
silage, cattle do not seem to like
to eat it at first; but they become
very fond of it after nibbling at
it for two or three days.

Hay For Hogs.

1t is still hard for some folks
to consider clover, alfalfa or soy
bean hay a good hog feed. To-
day put fresh alfalfa hay in the
rack and watched 45 shotes line
up like sheep to eat it. They
seem to like alfalfa better than
any other of the legumes and
some tests have shown that rath-
er profitable gains have been
made on a corn and alfalfa hay
ration. Tankage and oil meal
and middlings are high-priced
and along with this winters corn
prices will make exp e nsiv e
enough gains. Nice bright we'll
cured alfalfa, clover or soy bean
hay will help to cut down the use
of costly feeds. 1t is not good
business to buy something that
can be more proftably raised at
home. R. A. Hayne, in Nation

LIFE STORY IN VERSE.

Away down in the hills of the Keystone state,
Where men grow tall, and women grow straight,
There lives man, fourscore years,
Who has lived and labored midst sorrow and tears
But ne has been man whose upright ways,
Has made him power through all his days.
On battle field in days gone by,
Where cannons shook the smouderng sky,
He offered his life for his country's good,
And midst death and fury he bravely stood
And proven by his courage and faithful life,
What should do in his country's strife
Some joy in sin he early found
But was called the gospel trump to sound
His parents poor, they had not taught him then
To read his Bible or to use his pen
But feeling that he must go forth to preach.
He considered nothing beyond his reach
And so | answered quickly here am -
To do my best shall always try.
In melting tones his youthful voice would rise
And soon with broken hearts and weeping eyes,
Men and women, old age, and YOUTH
Would gather round him to learn the truth
His strong clear tones with trumpet sound
Awaked the sinner from his sleep profound,
Convinced him he was on the downward way
And taught him how to weep, repent and pray,
He travelled Ger mountains he rode through the rain
Swan his horse through the waters his appointments gain
He convicted no silver nor cared for earth's gold,
But humbly tried to lead men to the fold.
He preached with great power and God blessed his word
For he welded the truth a soldier his sword
No soft sheeny words from his lips fell,
Though the story of love he would tenderly TELL
He would warn and women to flee from their sin
Giving proof beyond doubt they might all enter in;
He told of heaven so full Of good cheer,
That who heard him, desired to stay here
He told of hell so dark and so deep,
That men cried for mercy, and women would weep
He would point the Lamb that for sinners was san
And plead with all men to allow him to reign;
And when they would sing and the people entreat
Great crowds of poor sinners would kneel at his feet
And the power of the Lord would descend in its might
And praises and shouting would last through the night
His home has been open by night and by day.
And the needy turned empty away
Food clothing, and money, he freely bestowed,
Because he loved men, and would honor his Lord
Of hunger and cold, disappointment and care
His life has been fully than his share.
Bvt the day of his labor and toll will soon end
And the angels of God in numbers descend;
And the loved ones from heaven will come to his door,
And take him away where he'll sorrow
And he'll bask in a world of endless delight
Where God is the sum- and the Lamb is the light
Would you know who mean by all have said,
Whose picture I've drawn, whose story I've read
Then lest while tell of strong and brawny
Whose spelled in full is JOHN HENRY BARNEY
