AUTOMOBILES ON THE FARM. Hood Hoads omi Auto? increasing Rapidly In Georgia. (Atlanta Journal.) From Ware county comos fresh and interesting evidence that motor vehlcloB are to play au Important part in the country lifo of Georgia. In that section there is a stoady In crease In tho number of farmers who own automobiles and who use them regularly for business as well as for recreation. This ls not peculiar to a wealthy class of planters, but ap plies to people of thrift and average prosperity. Just such a tendency is manifest throughout the State. It ls said that the majority of State automobile li censes issued since last January have gone to small towns and rural districts, and In hundreds of farm yards gasoline has become a familiar spirit of tho air. Tho Increase of automobiles In tho country has gone hand in hand with tho development of good roads, each proving a stimulus to the other. Not many years ago tho use of motor vehicles would havo been Impractica ble In most of oi.r rural territory, simply because of tho condition of public highways. Horses and mules, wagons and buggies managed some how to get over the ruts and quag mires. B"t rubber tires and moro or less delicate mechanicians demand ed a reasonably smooth surface. It has been ono of the great missions of the automobile to Impress upon the community at large the vital need of good roads. To bo sure, that need has always existed, and the county that has Ignored lt has suffered In its agricultural and com mercial Interests. But we have not realized until recently just how prac tical and how far-reaching ls tho value of a well built and well kept highway. The fact that this truth is so strikingly evident to-day ls due in a large measure to tho won derful increase in the use of motor vehicles. As th? conditions of roads in Geor gia improve-and they aro Improv ing almost daily-the automobile will play a wider and wider part in the affairs of the farm. Together with the telephone and extended mail facilities lt will make country life doubly inviting and will thus bear directly upon the state's agri cultural growth. Hay Fever, Asthma and Summer Colds must be relieved quickly, and Foley's Honey and Tar Compound will do lt. E. M. Stewart, 1034 Wolfram street, Chicago, writes: "I have been great ly troubled during the hot summer months with hay, fever and find that by using Foley's Honey and Tar Compound I get groat relief." Many others who suffer similarly will be glad to benefit by Mr. Stewart's ex perience. Barton's Pharmacy, Wal halla; W. J. Lunney, Seneca. His Peculiarly Gifted Son.

Columbia, Aug. 24.-"I am proud of tito way tho Democrats conducted themselves," said Senator Benjamin Ryan Tillman yesterday In speaking of tho session of Congress just end ed. Senator Tillman carno to Colum bia from Trenton, and Immediately boarded another train for Liberty Hill, Kershaw county, whore ho goea to spend a few days with Railroad Commissioner John G. Richards. The Senator was accompanied by Mrs. Tillman. Senator Tillman was In Columbia but ton minutes, and had little time to talk to newspaper men, although he answered with apparent willing ness the few questions that were asked him. When asked about the Democrats at this session, the Senator said that ho was proud of his colleagues and the way In which they had conducted themselves, they not having made any serious mistakes. Tho Senator has not been present at this session ow ing to the condition of his health, he having been advised to remain at home in Trenton on tho farm. He was paired on all matters, and gave his colleagues notice that if he were needed at any time they should wire for him. Senator Tillman was asked If the situation as to the Democratic nomi nee possibility for President had clarified any, or If there were still that "embarrassment des riches," about which ho spoke the last time he stopped over in Columbia. The Senator simply replied: "No, I can not say that tho situation is any clearer now." The Senator says that tho Democrats have much good ma terial from which to select a Demo cratic nominee for the. Presidency. In view of the visit of the old vet erans to this city, Senator Tillman was asked whether he thought the South should accept at the hands of Congress a monument to the Confed erate navy, a bill for which has been Introduced Into Congress. There ls In tho Vicksburg National Park a inonu mont to the Federal navy. This monument will soon be dedicated. The dedication has been postponed owing to the introduction of the bill as to the Confederate navy monu ment. Some of the Southern Sena tors and Repr?sentatives objected to the uso of Federal funds for a Con federate monument. On this point Senator Tillman said: "Yes, I would favor the erection of such a monument. I cannot see why we should not tako anything from Congress that will show that tho j North ls willing to do a little justice j to the South. 1 cannot see why a] monument should be refused when I wo havo accepted tho grave-stones.." In the park whore the monument would be erected are "markers" on the graves of Confederates showing the rank of the deceased soldier. It was to these gravestones that Sena tor Tillman referred. Of State polities Senator Tillman did not talk, for there was little op portunity. He and Dr. Babcock spoke for a few moments of the work dono hy Commissioner Watson in his crusade against Bpoiled grain, especially corn meal, and the Sena tor appeared to be very much Inter ested. Dr. Babcock said that much of the meal was In very had shape. This led to a brief discussion of pel lagra and of Its relation to the spoil ed grain.
