Henry W. Grady, Jr? Missing.!
He was Lust Seen at Norfork, (
Va. Only Son of the Lato
Georgia Editor Disappears
from a Hotel?No Trace
Can he Found.
Atlunta, Sept. 9. ? Henry W. s
Grady, ?Vr., has disappeared, and
his friends and relatives are much e
concerned over his fate. Mr. i
Grady is the only hod of the late r
Henry W. Grady, editor of The t
Atlanta Constitution, who at the J
time of bis death was probably c
the most popular man in the c
South. Young Grady was last
seen in Norfolk on F. iday of last e
week, when he left the hotel where <j
he was stopping with his wife and r
child, in order to secure transpor- k
tation for the return trip to At- t
lanta, his home. Since that time i
no trace of him bus been found
by any member of the family. *
Mrs. Grady, prostrated with grief, f
haa returned to Atlanta. Eugene ?
R. Black, a prominent attorney
of this city and brother in-law of t
Mr, Grady, is now in^New York t
in quest of him, having abandon ?
ed all hope of finding him in Nor-, p
folk. t
Air. Grady has long suffered ?
from severe attacks of hay fever c
and it is thought by some of his a
close friends that his protracted
illness had affected his mind. The 1
strongest theory advanced in ex h
planation of his disappearance is 1
that be might have wandered 1
aboard an outgoing steamer or
v fl
train while under temporary men- |
tal abberation. The theory of
foul play bad also been put for-ward,
but it is difficult to find a
in five for this as Mr. Grady had t
oidy a small amount of money
upon his person when he was lust
seen * The theory of suicide is
not entertained by his family or
friends. His domestic life was
happy and he was in very com- 8
fortable financial circumstances, o
Every possible effort will bo made a
to locate him, and the police of c
every city, domestic and foreign, k
will be notified to watch for him. ti
The missing man was for a ^
time prominent in Atlanta political
life, having been city conn- a
oilman for two years. He has ^
for some years been connected, in ^
an editorial and reportori*! eapac- v
ity, with the Constitution. His ^
wife was Miss Grace Gould, of
St. Louis, Mo. ?
ConsumptionI
il
The onlv kind o! consump- h
tion to fear is "neglected 8
consumption."
People are learninfifthat con- f
sumption is a curable disease, v
It is neglected consumption f
that is so often incurable. y
At the faintest suspicion of u
consumption get a Dottle of
Scott's Emulsion and begin j
regular doses. t
The use of Scott's Emulsion q
at once, ljas, in thousands of
cases, turned the balance in .
favor of health.
Neglected consumption does \
not exist where Scott's Emul- (
sion is. 1
Prompt use of Scott's Emul- *
sion checks the disease while it r
can be checked.

THE VIEWS OF AN EXPERT.
tat Has Been Done in Development
of Dairying and Stocking Raising.
VIr. I.,. A. Hansom, who is welt
own in the South on account of his
nsplcuous work in agricultural mat 8
and his connection with the South
.rolina department of agriculture,
d now with the Southern Cotton Oil
mpany, as District Manager, at Atita,
Ga., In writing about the induce
of cotton seed products on the delopment
of dairying in the South,
ys:
'About 1850, a few wealthy and enrprislng
Southern planters imported
me Devon cattle from Kngland.
lese were turned loose in caneakes
with the native scrubs and allied
to roam over large areas of
>oded country, picking up a precaris
living on the scant pasturage afrded
by the woods freshly burned
er by the forest fires in the spring,
though widely scattered and a few
number, the prepotency of this breed
is so great that in many sections the
Idcnce of this infusion of good blood
still visible in the stock.
'No well-to-do planter at that time
nsidered that he had inilch cows
ough to supply the wants of his famunles
he owned at least twenty-five
thirty head. These droves of halfId
and half-famlshed animals were
:ated towards nightfall by the ringf
of a bell hung around the neck of
8 leader. They were driven to the
sv-pen, sometimes miles from where
;y were found in the woods, a spas>die
effort was made to extract milk
>m them, penned up over night, and
second attempt made upon them the
xt morning. The 'average yield' was
out one quart per cow.
'The Idea of increasing this producn
by Judicious feeding was not
ought of. This was the rule, but of
urse there were notable exceptions,
ople who did not own unlimited ueres
land, and who appreciated milk
d butter, took better care of their
vvs, fed thein regularly, and allowed
em to pasture during the day on
sir neighbors' land. This pasturing
is more to give them proper exerle,
and keep them healthy than to
'ord them any means of subsistence.
such an extent had the cattle Invests
of South Carolina in 1880 depreited
that the repairs to the farm
ice cost more than the value of the
ttle In the State, and the probability
that the same was equally true of
arly all the Southern States."
Then came the "No Fence Law,"
itch compelled the owners to fence
e cattlo Instead of the crops. This
reed the farmers to own good milch
ws, or none at all, as it became too
pensive to feed poor stock. About
is time, or perhaps a little earlier, A
peared the "Jersey" on the scene, a
eed of cattle as suited to the needs
those who were "too poor to own a
w, and too proud to milk a goat."
it this beautiful little animal soon
monstrated that she was not a
uitter," and, furthermore, that she
lied a long felt want," and, with
oper attention, gave rich returns on
r cost and keep, and, like the Irishtan's
pig that he rals?d In the ,cabin
Ith his children, she "paid, ths Tent"
? well as the freight. As compared
ith the Devon, she was smaller In
atue and gave less milk, but the proirtlon
of cream to water In what she
d give, far exceeded that of the DeDn,
the Durham, and Holstein, and
le promptly became the prime favore
of small families and butter-maks.
But she could not live without
ed, and butter could not be produced
ofltably on corn meal, wheatbran, or
>wpea diet, nor could it be produced
: all on what the Jersey could pick
> in the pastures.
Nature, always lavish, but provident,
d away coal in the earth for ages,
ily to be uncovered when the world
>eded it most, pointed the way to the
>ld fields only when this precious
atal was absolutely required for the
orld's commerce, and covered from
jht the phosphate rock of the Carolas
until improvident man had deroyed
the fertility of the fields, likeise
she held back the material re
mcu in rnuKC auirying in inc souin
isslble and profitable, until condl:>ns
were favorable for Its use.
The advent of the Jersey cow creed
a demand for a cheap and rich
od, which the oil mills supplied with
ills and meal. In a list of fifty of
e leading feed materials of the Unld
States, the National Department of
griculture ranks cotton seed meal
'st, In feeding value and places the
ilue of cotton seed hulls for the same
irpose above the best timothy hay.
lie use of these products has fully
istalned the department's reports,
id dairy farming Is fast becoming an
dustry of Importance, and this has
;en largely the result of the liberal
>llcy of the Southern Cotton Oil Co.
I the Carollnas and Georgia, which
is headquarters at Columbia, S. C.,
tlanta, Ga., Savannah, Ga. and Chartte,
N. C., Goldsboro, N. C., and Aulsta,
Ga.
Around the large cities In the South,
lirles are successfully operated, supylng
the people with wholesome
ilk, and rich golden butter from cows
d on hulls and meal. The country
Ills have accomplished the same
dng for the farms and small towns,
found the factory towns the small
ills make dairying possible, and protable,
as the demand from the operaves
is sufficient to consume all the
illk and butter that can be produced,
id the use of meal for fertilising the
nd, which is sold reasonably by the
outhern Cotton Oil Company, has
reatly enlarged the area devoted to
uck farming of all kinds.
Without oil mill products dairying
ould be Impossible In many sections
P the South. The abundance, cheapess
and convenience of the products
as already developed the business to
n interesting extent and It Is only In
s Infancy, and its growth will Inrease
rapidly each year with the
teady improvement in the grade of
illch cows. Oleomargarine contains
bout forty per cent, milk, and the
[impound Is a wholesome product,

an be had would Rive a tremendous
npetus to dairying In the South.
