Washington, Nov 10.-The monthly report of the statistician of the department of agriculture will state tba!; the mest thorough investigation of the cotton situa tion that bas been made since 1895 has just been completer1. Special agents from the Washing ton office have visited all the principal points in the cotton belt, investigating both acreage and production. Pending the receipts of the final reports as to picking, due December 1st, no detailed state ment will be issued, but statistici ans state that on the basis of the highest estimate of the area under cultivation for which the depart ment can find any warrant, 23,500, 000 acres, the crop cannot exceed 9,500,000 bales. This estimate is based on the most complete and trustworthy information. Sonndlap Bales Tested. Mr James H. Camp, one of tho most successful farmers of Floyd County, Georgia, asked recently by a reporter of the Rome Georgian what he thought of the American Cotton. Company's Rouudlap bale, said : "The other day I put it to the severest possible test. I took cotton to Arnold's [square bale] giu in North Rome and the same day I carried some of the same lot of cotton to Hancock's Rouudlap gin in Rome. I sold lots of cotten in Rome the same day and after every item of expense was cbaaged against each, I cleared one dollar and twenty five cents a bale more on the Roundlap cotton."

Strowger Phone No. 36' STRANGE PHENOMENA. Ten Meteors Resembling Comets Seen in Birmingham. Birmingham, Ala., Nov. 19. Strange phenomena, supposed to be part of the tri-c?ntenary meteoric disturbance, was observed here tonight between the hours of 7 and 9 o'clock. The fiery messengers made their appearaace directly overhead. As many as ten meteors were seen, all of ?which were in che nebulae form, resembling comets. They first appeared as patches of light and at times would glow a fiery red and thon fade away, repeating this a number of times before they finally disappear ed. During the lurid period the central body could be easily seen, the light radiating through the entire mass which appeared to be about 3 feet loDg and six inches wide. Itwas also observed while the glow waa on, that these strange bodies appeared to be moving, the agitation being easily distinguisba" ble with the naked eye. The entire zenith was overcast, although outside the area the sky was clear. Great crowds gathered at the street corners and many were appalled at the strange sight. A number of negroes resorted to prayer as a means of protection from the stars which they feared would reach the earth. A buggy that will stand the test of rough roads can be bought only ai A.

On every hand there is a boom in cotton factory advocacy, if not in building. Savannen, Macon, Atlanta, Rome-every city in Georgia, and many of the small towns are engaged in the effort to build one or more cotton factories. "The building of textile mills in the south," says that Louisville (Ky.) Courier-Journal, "iskeeping step with the development of her iron and steel industries and converting her from an exclusively agricultural to a mixed agricultural and manufacturing section. The south is too well adapted to agriculture for this industry ever to be forced into the background, as it has been in the sterile hills of New England, but there is no reason why man ufacturing should not be equally developed. When that is done the south will be the richest part of the nation." Mr. W. 8. Witham, who is at the head of 27 banks in Geoigia, has gone to booming ootton factories for Georgia, and says there is no reason why the south shouldn't get from $75 to $100 for a bale of cotton worked up, in stead of $30 for the raw material. He adds : "Labor is plentiful and cheap in Georgia. The success of Georgia is only a symptom-not a disease. So are Backache. Nervousness. Dizziness and the Blues. They all come from an unhealthy state of the men strual organs. If you suffer from any of these symptoms if you feel tired and languid in the morning and wish you could lie in bed another hour or two -if there is a bad taste in the mouth, and no appetite-if there is pain in the side, back or abdomen-BRADFIELD'S FEMALE REGULATOR will bring about a sure cure.

From persoual experience I know that cotton mills of from 5,000 to spindles pay much better (dividends than mills of larger size. As many years ago the west at tracted the attention of capitalists and business men, so now the eyes of this class are turned to the south. I can name half a dozen cotton mills in this state (Georgia) having from four to ten thousand spindles which show net earnings of from 25 to 60 per cent, during the past twelve months. I am a stockhold er and know. lam now organiz ing three new cotton mills." Let the good work go on. But Augusta the great pioneer in cotton manufacturing, must not stand atill and lose her supremacy. If more mills are desirable in Georgia, more mills are desirable in Augusta, and if a small mill will pay aB a big one, then let us have some more small mills if the money and power are not available for another mill of the King and Sibley class.-Ex.

The abi ity to earn and save up -particularly save up-the sum of $100 by the time he is 20 years of agevery largely determines the question whether the young man shall acquire a competency for his old age or whether he will have to then depend upon the charity of friends, die in a poor house and be buried in a pauper's grave. The saving of the first $100 involves all the self-denying and economic methods, on a small scale, which are incident to the accumulation of a fortune. The doing of it will be as hard a financial problem to most young men as they will tackle at any time during their lives. The $100 is not a very large sum, it is true, still the earning and saving of it makes it an educational factor of almost incalculable value. The boy who has earned and saved this sum has learned in the first place that most important lesson the real value of a dollar; then it represents denial of appetite, a repression of purely animal tastes and desires, which develop endur ance, patience, manliness; it knocks the easy come, easy gof idea of money, which so many young men have, all to pieces; it teaches him how to say "No" and stick to it. Then he learns of the cohesive power of a dollar how one dollar-how one dollar will draw oth?r dollars to itself, and also of the cumulative power which combined dollars have over individual and scattered ones. By saving $100 thus he will learn not so much to love money for its own sake, but rather will learn to respect money and value it tightly as the important factor it is in his own development as a man. No boy who will read this item (and a great many will) can do a better or more sensible thing for himself than to resolve that he will earn-honestly earn by good bard knocks-and save not less than $100 by the tim? he is 20, and [our word for it the experience and (discipline which he will undergo *n ?the doing it will be worth more than $1,0C ) tc him in after life.
