KNoxvILLE PosT-oFFIcE HOURS

EARLY VEGETABLEs.-It is not every
family that owns good hot-bed; but this
need not deter them from trying to produce
few early vegetables. A few boxes or
flower pots, filled with fine earth, may be
placed in window, and answer the pur-
pose of hot-bed. Tomatoes, cabbages,
peppers, and similar plants, may be started
in warm room, and by transplanting
once or twice before the time arrives for
setting out, they will be several weeks in
advance of those grown in the garden.
Avoid the too common mistake of sowing
the seed too thickly, thereby crowding the
plants, and causing them to grow tall and
slender. A half dozen good, stocky plants
will give more fruit and much earlier, than
several dozen poor, spindling, sickly ones.
A small flower pot, six inches in diameter,
is large enough to start two or three dozen
plants of one sort; and when they are two
or three inches high, transplant into boxes
or larger pots, giving each plant room to
grow. If they grow too tall and slender,
pinch off the upper portion of the stem,
and this will cause them to grow stocky.
Always keep the plants where they will
receive the direct rays of the sun during
the greater part of the day. With but lit
tie care and trifiing expense, every fami-
ly can raise all the early vegetable plants
required.

BROOM CORN SEED FOR PoULTRY.-In
answer to the inquiry in Rural NeW York.
er as to whether 'broom corn seed is good
for poultry would say, from experience,
that they win thrive on it as well as on
any single grain; so, also, will cattle, hogs
and horses. But heartier and more fat
tening feed is made by mixing Indian
corn-say half and half; if ground, all the
better.-S. H., North Enst.

BURNING GRASS AND WEEDS. Geo.
Copeland, Dresden, o., asks if it is any

done, to facilitate blowing. Mr.. Bergen
said no, but an absolute benefit; if the
grass and weeds are green it would be bet
ter to pillow them under.

MANURE FROM A Ton OF HAY.-I see
in the Rural Nea0 Yorker, a question from
III. Ostrum, as to what is the value of ma
nure from ton of hay. 1t is impossible
to give him an answer, as to how much it
is worth to him, individually, as that de-
ponds on how cheap he can make or pro-
cure it from other sources. But / will at
tempt to give him the value of it in pro-
portion to commercial fertilizers, and that
made from some other farm products, as
derived from the experiments of J. B.
Lawes, Rothamsted, England.
Clover Hay 1904 Bran wheat .$14. so
Meadow" ......... 6.49 Corn. ............... 6.65
Wheat straw.. 268 Oats...... ........ TO
Oats ......- $50
He must remember that this is not the
value of a ton of manure, but the manure
procured from the consumption of ton of
the article. They may not really be worth
this amount to Mr.. Ostrum; but if he con-
templates purchasing fertilizers, then they
are worth this much.
1t would be well enough to state that
the bran owes its increased value over
clover hay. to the presence of phosphoric
acid, the most needed and most valuable
article in our fertilizers. Of all the arti-
cles we can the least spare, at the prices
generally prevalent, if manure is any item
is, first, bran, and second, hay, especially
clover.-J. h. B.-Moore's R. ~. Y.

Horace Greeley and MIR. Davis.

We copy as follows from the
Memphis Araldnche of the 4th:
About II O'Clock Hon. jeff Davis
called at the Overton Hotel, and
was ushercd into the presence of
MIR. Greeley, at whose hands he
met a very cordial reception. The
philosopher and his visitor sat
facing each other in the centre of
the room, the broad, open and plain
countenanco of the one in strange
contrast with the why, nervous
and somewhat delicate face Of the
other.
MIR. Davis was dignihed and
somewhat formal in manner, while
Mr.. Greeley was frank, easy and
quite laxative. There was scarcely
a reference to the political situation.
Mr.. Greeley inquired concerning
the health Of Mrs. Davis with much
warmth and earnestncss, aud again
referred to the high regard he en-
tertained for that lady and the
family of which she came. Mr..
Davis responded appropriately and
expressed the gratitude of himself
and Mrs. Davis to the philosopher
for his kindly services soon after
the war. This brought up Mrs.
Davis interview referred to above,
on which Mr.. Greeley seemed to
dwell with much pleasure. In the
course OF conversation Mr. Greeley
again spoke of tho Blairs, and es-
pcclally of tho seniors Of that dis
tinguished family, rcmarking en-
pasSdnt that Frank 2. Blair, Jr.,
and others Of the present genera,
ton did not do justice to the old
stock, to whom he referred with
apparent deep feeling. Mr.. Greeley
then passed on to subjects nearer
home, and finally dwelt for several
minutes on the memory of General
Quitman, of whom he spoke as -
warm personal and political friend
in times gone by.
Not word was said on either
side, that our reporter could over
hear, concerning Mr.. Dadi3' condi-
ton aud prospects. All through the
interview, which lasted ton min
utes, Mr.. Davis maintained Il very
reserved demcanor, while on the
other hand, the face of the philoso-
phcr was wreathcd in kindness and
smiles, with occasionally a hearty
laugh breaking the stiffness. 1t was
II scene worthy the pencil of an ar
fist, one that would make Il picture
valuable now and in future gener-
ations. Rising at the conclusion of
the interview, Mr.. Davis withdrew
with a stately bow, and in a few
minutes after Mr.. Greeley was en-
route for the railroad depot, whore
he took the l2.45 train for Louis
vile, accompanied by Gen. Merritt,
his friend and travelling compan-
ion.
