WAR CsRrAIS.-We have on our desk copy of
the Mobile Tribune, of September last which says:
In about a half dozen exchanges that we picked
up yesterday, we noticed articles uuder the head
ing-"Another War Inevitable" ANY man with
common sense might have safely predicted such
thing six months ago. And We think this paper
did as long as that" What attracted our attention
in connection with this prediction, was the fact
that but a very small portion of the paper making
twas devoted TO politics, while whole columns and
even entire pages, were devoted to the discussion

from week to week, as the animals will

is infinitely better to, have all kinds OF
grain ground quite fine before 1t Is fed

when feeding fattening swine to provide
three vessels, each one to contain about
as much as is fed at one time. Then
let the meal be softened by soaking in
water about twenty four hours before 1t

A Few Words ON Dress.

In dress, as in everything else, exag-
geration is the one thing to be avoided.
In the young this is objectionable, be-
cause they always look best in the most
simple attire. There is beauty in
growth itself which needs no adven-
titious ornament. For dowagers and
married women it is another story. They
may have to repair the ravages of time,
or to conceal imperfections which in
youth were overlooked. But even they
only make matters worse if they attract
attention to themselves by the exagger-
ated use of any prevailing fashion. 1t
is easy for the young to dress well, be-
cause nothing comes amiss to them, it is
difficult for their elders, who will not
accept the fact that they are no longer
young. There is no great art in being
able to recognize ones position, be it
what it may. The sight of an old wo-
man, wrinkled and gray, decked ont in
every color of the rainbow, and adorned
with artificial flowers, affecting youth
which has slipped away from her long
ago, is enough to make one sad while
there is something attractive i'll the
sight of one dressing simply, soherly,
and quietly, accepts gracefully the fact
that she is old, and can discern merit
and blessing in those "quiet days"

III Misunderstanding.

There is n philosophy in hand-shak-
ing. 1t is an indication of character.
1t gives an expression to the degree in
which you are appreciated or esteemed
by another. The most agreeable shake
of the hand is the meaning. welcoming
grasp, warm but not painful i'll pressure,
which stands guarantee TO the sympa-
thetic look and kindly-spoken word.
The most abominable Misunderstanding is
that lazy, istless offering, giving no
pressure, and averse to receiving any.
We have shaken hands with such per-
sons, and the memory of it has ANNOYED
us for an hour afterward. 1t was like
touching a wet dishcloth, or cold,
quivering frog. An embarrassing shake
of the hand is when the party greets
you hastily, yet silently, as if he felt
guilty of boldness, or was not quite sure
that he had not been misled by resem-
blance. 1t is as awkward rs a pause in
conversation.

half-unintentional contact of hands is
most pleasant; that soft, lingering res

loves dictation-that faint attempt at
withdrawal, at propriety's suggestion
that electrical thrill of contact which
fires the veins, modulates the voice,
colors the cheek, adds Il brightness to
the eye, and tremulousness to the lips.
How n any men, profound in philoso-
ply, brilliant in scholarship high in
position, have sat for hours in the still
moonlight, holding in their hand the
soft white hand of woman their
thoughts idly borne off by a fitting leaf
or the trill of bobolink, Who can

AGRICULTURAL.

AUTUMN MANAGEMENT OF FRUIT Or
CHAIDs.-When il is desirable to save
the fruit of pear or apple trees without
being bruised. all the small stones,
sticks. pieces of brush, and every such
thing that will iniure the fruit should
be removed from the orchards early in
September, so that good coat of grass
may cover the grou nd before the fruit is
gathered III October. If soft. thick
covering of grass is over the ground
the fruit that falls will not he bruised
unless il should strike limb or fall on
other fruit. If the ground has been
plowed, or rooted over with swine, let
it he leveled off with harrows and hoes,
and if lumpy, pass Il heavy roller over
it. Then SOW liberal dressing Of or
chard grass seed, or timothy seed. If it
is not desirable to stock down an or
chard, and 4 person has an abundance
of straw of any kind, let il be spread
on the ground beneath the fruit, so as
to cover the entire surface, about two
inches deep. Salt hay is excellent for
such purpose. When on Il visit to
New Jersey, short time since, we saw
a large number of fruit trees, the boughs
of which were bending beneath the
heavy burden of fruit. Salt hay had
been spread beneath the trees. so that
none of the fruit might fall on the
ground. If this precaution is not taken
the fruit which falls TO the ground will
usually be badly bruised.
TAXING TT TENDER PL>NTs.-Those
having tender plants it is desirable to
save through the winter that are ten
der, must now take them up and pot
them.
In taking up save all the roots pos
sihle, and shorten i'll the shoots well to
compensate for the disturbance. Where
the plant Is already compact i'll growth,
and II Is not desirable to cut in very
much, dlSleatlng will have the same eff
feet. But without one or the other.
plants taken from the free ground and
potted are sure to suffer. After potting
set them in "A close shady place for a
time, giving the earth n good soaking
OF water. 4 common error among the
uninitiated is overpotting. Use pots
rs small as the roots will conveniently
20 into then, after they have started
into growth, they may have a shift in
TO larger pots, by which means the
stimulus of fresh soil is very conductive
to their well doing. Many plants,
properly treated, will give quite pro-
fusion of flowers during late winter
and early spring, and as the time comes
roand make splendid plants for sum-
mer decoration.
-
FATTENING SwlNE.-Many farmers do
not commence fattening their swine till |
October. This is not the best system of
hog management. Hogs that are TO be
slaughtered about the first of next De-
rember or January, should be we'll fed:
with Scrupulous regularity, three times
every day. 1t is not best to STUFF
attening swine in the former part of
he. season, unless they have attained
desirable size. Hogs should be kent
growing rather than to allow them TO
ul sist almost entirely on grass, till
within two months of the time when
hey are to be slaughtered, and then

According to the Darwinian theory,
