f ARMERS INSTITUTE AT UNION. Gemson Car Here?Lcctures by Professors. A good crowd assembled at the court house last Friday afternoon to hear the talks on agricultural subjects by the C'hmson professors in charge i?f the agricultural exhibit car. Prof. .1. N. Harper presided over the meeting, and himself talked on the subject of soil improvement. He said that it was a matter of vi- i tal importance that we put plenty of vegetable matter in the soil; it is necessary. He said that crusts are formed on the surface after rains la-cause the moisture, in tin* process of evaporation brought to the surface all the salt, soda and potash in the land. This should be broken up ami re-distributed in the soil. Mr. Harper sai< 1 that the little bacteria in the ground were i rli<pe isabl<*, th:i they worked on the vegetable matter and prepared it for the consumption of the plant. A further aeeount of the lectures ami a description of the car will he given in the next issue. Death of Mrs. Dora Kirby. Mrs. Dora Kirby died at her home in South I'nion Tuesday afternoon about "> o'clock. The day U fore she was in her usual health j and her death came as a great shock to her familv and friends. On M onday night she was taken sick with indigestion. She took a dose of laudanum. This, it is supposed, failed to relieve her, and the dose was repeated, perhaps more than one time. When it did take effect she went to sleep and never awoke, Hut she did not go to sleep till after daylight Tuesdav. She was a meat sufferer from asthma and was accustomed to take an opiate when an attack came on. It is probable that , thus aeecustomcd to using the drug she <liil not realize its danger. The effect of the doses were, perhaps, cumulative. Mrs. Kirhy was >5years old, and leaves seven sens, the youngest of whom is Id years of age. She was a good woman, a widow who for several years struggled hard to rear her children, most of them heing quite young. She was a member of Mt. Lebanon Baptist church, and had been for ds years. She was buried Wednesday at J'utman church, Rev. L. M. Rice | conducting the burial service*. Stock fycange License. The ordinance permitting the ojM'ration of stock exchanges in Un- ; ion has been repealed. Mr. Jno. ;' R.

John VV. Shiver, Americus, Ga., writes: "We are car load buyers of Wadsworth Paint and heartily recommend ; it to the trade." The best evidence that Wadsworth : Paint is the best Paint to use, J is the fact that others have \ found, and still find, it to . give the highest degree of < satisfaction. i It gives the highest satis- < faction because it combines 1 economy, durability and i beauty, the three requisites \ for the best paint. Therefore i Wadsworth is the best paint < to use. Order through local i dealer or write King Paint < Mfg. Co., Brooklyn, N. Y. 1 Messrs. 11. ('.
