Jackson County, Georgia Mr. Editor—As farming is be coming of more and more interest to the public I hope not to intrude by writing a few lines on the subject. Crops look well in this part of the county at present, particularly cot ton. Wheat is good where it is well manured, but we are comparatively speaking, yet in the woods. To form successfully we must clear our land that is lying in the woods, and old fields, ami cultivate grass and more small grain and raise more stock and improve our land, year after year, so that each succeeding year it will grow two blades of grass where only one grew before. I see a communi cation in you! last issue from an old farmer signing himself “ Bill Arp,’’ his main crops eeom to be potatoes and iiijnu sets, be complains of a small mistake in the management of his iiijnu sets on account of his editor not being luminous, but finally cor rected the mistake with hut little loss or trouble. By the way, Bill must pull the bean out of his own i ye before he complains of the editor in several points in his communication he is not luminous, for instance, in his P. S. he asks what is the very latest from Dameron and Block, which is ahead, and in the heading of his communication he calls it a relig ious postcript, hut I cannot imagine how Dameron and Block can he con strued into religion, it may be Damons and Brock I know an old Methodist preacher named Damons and an old Baptist preacher named Brock, it may be, Bill wishes to know which is ahead the Methodist or Baptist, his remarks about Harris are luminous, lie describes J. Harris minutely, John knows every thing, lie says he 1 nows Bill Arp but his dictionary i< blank. We hope to hear from Bill frequently and expect him to he more luminous, his conundrums are lumi- n ms but they don’t puzzle Harris. Hurricane. Fruit Jars! Fruit Jars! Masons. «fc Gem at .J.

Too little attention is given to this matter by farmers ; and in this they stand in their own light. The hog is a grazing animal, and during ti e season when grass supplies food for stock, he will do better w hen kept on it than when fed on anything. On t is topic Prof. Rodney Welch says in the Chicago Times: “ A hog is as much entitled to grass during summer as a cow’ is, and will profit quite as much from it. As a dairyman studies how to have a good pasture for his milch cows, so a raiser of hogs should study how to have ? good pasture for his breed of stock bogs. Too many farmers give very little attention to the food their hogs receive till it comes time to commence fattening them, when they are impatient to stuff them with all they can devour. They seem to think it is only neces sary to give them enough to he-; them alive up to that time.” A Great Farmer’s Maxims. The successful life of Mr. Jacob Straw, the prince of American farm- ers is attributed to the close observ ance of the following maxims origi nated by’ himself: Make y’our fences high and strong, so they will keep cattle and pigs out. If you have brush, make your lots strong and secure and keep the hogs from the corn. Be sure to get hands to bed by seven o’clock ; they will rise early by force of circumstances. Pay a hand, if lie is a poor hand, all you promise biin ; if he is a good hand pay him a little more ; it wiil cucourage him to do still better. Always feed your hands as well hs you feed yourselves, for thedahoring men are the bone and sinew of the land and ought to be well treeted. ;:ricz adamant— tallow Cheeae, State— Enttlifh Dairy...,. :.... v - ——- Onions, per tiu— Starch — Tallow- — — Rice, per !b Mackerel, No. l,kits “ No. 2, Kits .No. 3, Kite Salt, Ter Sack..—...—- Chewing,tobacco „ Smokings i - ....

SEA FOAM is an entirely new inven tion, without any of the bad qualities of yiatt or baking panders, soda, or saleratus. SEA FOAM contains no ingredient or element which can produce an injurious effect, but on the contrary has in itself a tendency to sustain and nourish the human system.

FKATUIIK Presents itself to those who use Parker's Ilair Balsam, in the discover) of its rare and remarkable merits Many have written us expressing theii delight in the fact that it works like a charm. Its disinfectant properties ir chemical combination rendering il healthful, cleausing and healing are bearing fruit, and the beautiful hair it produces, with the clean, healthy scalp, entirely freed from Dandruff and fal ling hair, are achievements for which we have reason to feel proud. A patron assures us that he has used twelve different Hair Preperatious and that Parker’s Hair Balsam surpasses them all. To hair that has becoint gray or faded, it restores that beauti ful natural color of youth, and produ* oes a vigor and luxuriance that sur prises every one. Buy a bottle from ! your druggist, Dr. K.

THRESHERS, TIMES. and by a chonical process mixed with other Ingredients. Before lending their influence to increase the sale of any bak ing powder, grocers would do well to ascertain the reputation and standing of its manufacturers. They would thus avoid Incoming instrumental in perpe trating a fraud on their customers, and would in the long run make more money. Of course no honest man would knowingly lend himself to such a fraud upon his customers, and It is very poor policy for any grocer to attempt to palm off inferior goods when the best are asked for. He may by so doing make a little money at the time, but he surely will at somo time, if the fraud is discovered, lose one of his best customers, and with him a score of others who might otherwise have dealt with him. A merchant's wisest policy is to secure the best customers, and they are just the ones who want the best goods. SEA FOAM is WITHOUT m EQUAL It is prepared from the purestand best materi als only, and is never under any circum stances adulterated. There is no longer any excuse for sour, heavy, or sodden bread, bis cuit, or pastry. Every housewife in the land should make herself acquainted with the facts we have stated, which are indisputable, and she will soon ascertain that most of the yeast preparations now being sold are anything else but wnnt they profess to be, anil Hint this is the main reason why so large a propor tion of the bread consumed by the masses ol the community is uiilieulthful. Invalids aro especially interested in this question of yeast, and ought to keep constantly in mind the im portant fact that their dietary should at all times be the best, and that under the most favorable circumstances they can not hope to regain health and strength unless their food is tho most healthful and nutritious that can be obtained. Good food makes good blood, and the nerve force is strengthened or impaired in proportion as the food we eat is nutritious or otherwise. SEA FOAM is worthy of a fair trial, and that Is all we ask for it. No one having once used it will overuse any oilier preparation in the baking powder line, but will at once and forever banish from the housothe various crude mixtures and bogus preparations in the form of yeast that have so long and so persistently tended to destroy health by imperfectly performing tho require ments they professed to fulfill. SEA FOAM retains in all their excel lence the nutritious properties and natural taste of the various cereal preparations of food, while In bread raised by tho ordinary means there is very frequently great loss of their toothsome and palatable qualities. Of all baking or yeast powders, Sea Foam is beyond dispute the BEST IN THE WORLD Give it a trial, and you will concede that we have offered you the means to m.v. poor flour much better than when used under ordinary conditions, while good flour will be Immeasurably increased in sweetness, rich ness, and all those qualities which combine to render good bread essentially the staff «f lift. SEA FOAM is now used by the leading hotels and restaurants in New York city and throughout tho country. One eating-house in New York has become famous for its SEA FOAM biscuit, and during the dinner honn there are always dozens of people waiting their turn to be seated. Ask your grocer to get it for you, if he has not already placed it in his stock, and If an obliging man ho will do so; or send for circular and price-list to GANTZ, JONES & CO.
