WEATHER REPORT
WEEKLY CROP AND

The past week was quite dry, with
abundant sunshine and temperatures
near the seasonal average. These con-
ditions were favorable for harvesting,
especially picking cotton, making hay,
saving fodder, and farm work of all
kinds. Pulling fodder is nearing COM
pletion, and housing corn has begun.
XTobacco is practically all harvested.
Sweet potatoes are not yielding quite
so we'll as anticipated in the southern
division, but are promising elsewhere.
A good crop of hay is being saved.
Rice is heading but is generally poor.
Sugar cane continues to do we'll. Pea
nuts are only fair. Fall gardens are
poor and very little fall gardening has
been done. Cotton is opening rapidly
and picking and ginning made good
progress. In spite of the lateness of
the crop it is apparent that it will
be all open and harvested early in the
season. Several correspondents re-
port the crop already half picked in
the southern division. Cotton made
poor progress in the north on account
of the prevailing dryness, and there is
considerable shedding and some rust;
elsewhere progress is about normal.
Weevil activity persists, especially in
the central division.

escaped, except ]. R. Pirkle, wife and
three small children, who were con-
sumed in the flames.
The fire originated from the eX-
plosion of a gas stove, and since this
place has no five protection whatever,
and the building, which was wooden
frame structure, burned rapidly. The
hotel furniture and fixtures were a
total loss.
In cleaning up the ruins Saturday
morning five skulls were found, which
were later identified a sthose belong
ing to the bodies of j. r. Pirkle, wife
and three children, who lived four
miles west of Bowden, little town
twelve miles from this place, in Ha-
ralson county, on branch line run
ming out of here on the Central of
Georgia railway. The family had
been to east Tennessee on a visit to
relatives and stopped off here to spend
the night, so as to catch the morning
train to Bowden.
The alarm was given by passing
freight engine, but the fire had such
start that there was very little that
could be done to save the place.

COURT AT LEAST CONSISTENT

Our famous president, Abraham Lin

David Davis and Lincoln were close

a clerk of court in LincOln's day.
"Dayis fined me five dollars. Mr..
Lincoln had Just come in, and, leaning
over my desk, had told me story so
irresistibly funny that l broke out In
loud laugh. The judge called me to
order, saying
"'This must be stopped. Mr.. Lin
coin, you are constantly disturbing
this court with your stories.'
'"Then he said TO me:
"'You may fine yourself five dollars.
81 apologized to the court, but told
the Judge that the story was worth the
money. Shortly afterwards the Judge
called me to him.

USE OF A STARTER"
TO RIPEN CREAM

Investigations in dairy products at
the Georgia Experiment Station have
shown that a uniform quality OF out-
ter and buttermilk can be produced
from month to month when good
''starter" is used and proper tempera-
ture maintained in ripening the cream:
During the ripening process Tactic ACID
is produced in cream, which is produc-
ed by the action of certain bacteria
and when other kinds of bacteria are
present in large amounts, other acids
may be produced which injure the
taste of the butter and milk. The
Tactic acid bacteria have the power,
when present in large quantities, OF
overcoming the effects Of the other
organisms. BY adding an excess OF
the Tactic acid bacteria to milk or
cream a good product is assured.

BORN OF EMPRESS DREAM
Persian Legend Concerning the Design
and Construction Of the Beau.
tifuI Tai Mahai.

A beautiful story, which is not gen.
orally known, of the creation Of the
Tai Mahal is hidden away In the
pages of the Persian manuscripts. The
emperor wished to commemorate his
undying devotion and esteem for his
beloved consOrt, but nothing satisfied
his ambition, until one day Arjumand
the nobleSt and most perfect of
moHaments, which If actualized, would
be unparalleled in the whole world for
it's matchleSs beauty. The emperor
sent for experts from all over the en-
pire and commanded them to design the
architecture of the dream. They la
bored to no effect; they could not Wis
ualize the dream. At last one day an
old venerable Pr ascetic presented
himself, who said II can help you to
obtain what you seek"
He then presented mysterious po-
ton to one of the architects, before
whose dazed eyes the lovely monument
in all its glory was revealed. Inc
magic of the potion lasted while he
drew the plan In all its detail. then
he fell back exhausted. The empress,
seeing the design of her vision real
ICED, was full of Joy and the emperor
at once set to work to have this edifice
constructed. The impOssibility of lay
ing q firm foundation next presented
itself The swampy character of the
banks of the silvery Jumna made 1t
Impossible tc erect any construction
that would stand, until, in another
dream, it was revealed that the basis
must be of silver. Today the Tai
stands, ike an ethereal drop of flaw
less pearl, on it's foundation of solid
silver-breathing forth the poetry OF
its conception:
'Sweeter to rest together dead,
Far sweeter than to live asunder."

Quinn, well-known Louisville woman
OF 25l4 Woodlawn avenue, is telling
her friends and neighbors of the re-
lief she gained from Trutona, the per-
feet tonic.
II suffered from nervous indiges-
gestion, constipation and loss of appe-
tite," Mrs. Quinn said recently. ST
was so nervous I could hardly tolerate
the presence Of anyone in the house.
l couldn't sleep and would often Just
wonder around the house at night. L
never felt like doing even the easiest
household duties.
II feel like woman made over
again, since taking Trutona. 1t has
helped me in every way. My husband
thinks Trutona has performed mir
acles for me. 1 think Trutona is the
most wonderful medicine in the world.
1t does all and is more than is claimed
for it. It's wonderful medicine for
weak, nervous run down women"
As Mrs. Quinn says, the perfect
tonic is remarkable as a reconstructiye
agency and especially so after attacks
OF pneumonia, influenza and the like.

Died at Eunice.

Editor News
am sorry to inform your readers of
the death of James Roberts, who died
on the End inst, being in his 9th
year. Perhaps he was. the Oldest man
in Adair county. He was a most re-
markable man, in many respects. He
was true to his convictions and could
not be swerved from the right as he
saw the right. He was popular in
the community in which he lived and
his friends regard his death as an ir-
reparable loss. He was kind to the
poor and always sympathised with
those in distress. The writer has lost
a true friend, and he feels it his duty
to pay this humble tribute to tbs
memory of the deceased and would
fain place a wreath on his grave.

that they were not all killed or serious

car pitched over the incline and Sided

Casey Creek and Pellyton precincts
have made up sufficient amount of
money to build a pike from the Meats
burg Bridge to Knifiey. A corpora
ton will be formed and the work
started at an early day. When Stan
ford pike is finished to the bridge, and
the proposed pike meets it there, the
people IN the that end of the county
will have pike all the way to Column
bia. This action shows enterprise
upon the part of the citizens in the
northeast end of the county, and be-
sides it will be great satisfaction to
know that they are out of the mud.
