Rect Crops fer Hogs.

But a very small percentage Of farmers
grow root crops for food for stock. Ocsa>
sionally patch of carrots or mangolds
are found, but as general thing they con-
stitute no part of the standard farm pro-
ducts. Still all experience points to them
as among the most economical crops TO be
fed out upon the farms, and at the same
time they constitute healthful and nu-
tritive article Of diet. In recent letter
to the RuruL World, w. j. Neely, of
LaSalle County, Illinois, says that last
year he grew five acres of nangolds.
which yielded about thirty-one tons 10
the acre. He says that his bogs are very
fond of them, and in the fail will. VIXEN
other food is scarce, eat them, tops and ALL,
He thinks one acre of them willprodnes
as much food as FIVE acres of corn. Mr.
j. S. Tibbits writes the Michigan Furns-,
er that he raised sugar beets for his hogs
last season, and has never had them, do
better. He is ready to believe them a
very valuable food for fattening hogs, and
superior to any other root crop for stock
of all kinds. rl n,

Married "FuIl Up"

In Virginia, where the law fixes the
M rriage fee at one dollar. there is re-
miniscence of couple, who many years
ago called on parson and requested him
to marry them.
Where is my fee % said the old funct-
ionary.
The parties who were to unite their
fortunes did so at once, and found the
joint amount to be twenty-seven cents.
81 can't marry you for that sum" said
the irate old gentleman.
ga little bit of service will 60 long
way" suggested the male applicant.
..Oh, no. said the parson ''you don't
pay for the size of the pill but for the
good you hope it will do YOU
"The lass, intent on marriage, began
to weep, but the parser n was inexorable,
and the couple tnrned sadly to depart =
Just then happy thought seemed to
strike the forlorn maiden, and She turned
and cried. through her tears
sPlease sir, if you can't marry us full
up, won't you marry us twenty-seven
cents worth? We can come for the rest
some other time"
This was too much for the parson. He
married them .'full up," and they went
went on their way rejoicing.

HI. G., After FIrS. w.

The New York Tribune does not take
kindly to the gentle lecturess. With refer
ence to her recent threat to send out five
hundred female orators, to make shrill and
incoherent the coming Presidential cam
paign, the editor ungallantly says:
Perhaps she can do it. Who knows? If
so, it will add petticoats and picturesque
ness to crusade which has hitherto been
somewhat bleak from the lack of those
alluring and attractive elements. The
twinkle of No. 2 gaiter with high heel
upon the rostrum would doubtless tickle
the great massmeeting imagination, stupe-
fed by long contemplation of No. IL bro
gan., double soled but we don't think
the discourses of the wearers of these be-
wildering boots would amount to much.
1t is seriously to be hoped that Mrs w.
will reconsider her alarming resolution,
and not wantonly flood the land with an
other deluge of talking virgins. There are
surely enough now. With babble of them
is the world filled, and of most of them the
emptiness isas the emptiness of innumera-
BILE drums. Of the other sort, so far as
heard from, it would appear that they de-
sire to have as little to do with Mrs.
Woodruff as possible.

Proper Flowing.

Flowing may, in sense, be called the
basis of agricultural industry. 1t is pre-
pairing the soil for the reception of the seed
and the crop depends quito as much on
the manner in which the soil is prepared
rs it does on the nature of the soil ITSELF,
Inferior soil, we'll cultivated, often yields
more than that which is better, because
the better is poorly cultivated. Every
farmer knows that deep. loose, and we'll
pulverized soil will always produce more
than that which is hard, sod, or cloddy,
and also that it is much easier worked.
Why, then do not all farmers have deeply
and thoroughly pulverized soil? The rea-
son, undoubtedly, is because of the amount
of hard labor it requires to make il.
Many farmers do not fully appreciate
the value of deep culture, and even thoss
who do, find it practically out Of their
reach, on account Of the labor and expense
of obtaining it.
Machinery must be used before tho
ground is properly prepared for the recePl
of the seed. The experience of the past
seems to prove that thorough and deep
culture will never be generally secured
under the old system of plowing.

An Interesting Habcas Corpus
Case.

Case.
An interesting and important haLeos
corpus case was decided recently, by his
honor Judge Erskine, of the United
States District Court. 1t appears that Mr..
Lucius l.. Culver, citizen of Missouri, is
engaged in selling, by samples. cooking
stoves manufactured by firm in Kentucky,
and that he was arrested few days ago,
in Gilmer county, Georgia, the warrant
charging Culver with peddiing and sell
ing goods without getting a license from
the Ordinary of that county, as the law
of the State required. Culver was ar
wagons were levied upon to satisfy for
feiture of SG25 claimed by the county
for violation of the peddling law. The
petition for release from custody is based
upon the second section of the Constitu-
tion of the United States which establishes
that The citizens of each State 81 all be
entitled to all the privileges and immuni-
ties of citizens in the several States"
which fundamental principle is still furth.
er elaborated in the first section of the
Fourteenth Amendment No State shall
make any law which shall abriGge the
privileges or immnnitics of citizens of the
United States" Section 451O of the
Revised Code of Georgia says that if any
peddler or itinerant traveller shall sell or
vend, without license, any goods or articles,
except such as are excepted by law, in
this State, shall be guilty of misdemeanor,
aud be punished as provided for in section
4445. twas held that the State law be-
ing contradictory to the Constitution of
the United States, was null and void, and
the prisoner was discharged. This looks
as if we were living under the Constitu-
ton, laws and protection of the United
States.-JfethUliSt Adcocote.

Social intercourse fer Farmers.
Farmers necessarily live at considerable
distanc IS from each other. and in conse-
quence Of this. and their habits of steady
labor, conine themselves too much to their
own fields and fircsides. They and their
families need recreation, need pleasures.
need something to counteract the effect of
the constant labor in which they are en-
gagged. The mechanic in the village OR
city has his mind frequently drawn away
from his work by that which is going on
around him but the farmer. being differ
emily situated. finds nothing to break ap
the monotony, unless he seeks for 10 else
where. tits quite probable that more
work. would be accomplished, aud better
tone offeeling be experienced, 10 say
nothing of the more cheerful countenance
which would be worn, if talf a day each
week were given to social Intercourse with
fellow farmers, instead of tlevoting sis full
days each week to unremitting labor.
After day spent pleasantly away from
home, the labor is not so irksome; the Ia
bOrer is happier. Allowing that as mueh
was not accomplished by giving little
time to relaxation, it should be borne in
mind that food and raiment for the family,
forage for the stock. and noney for tile
bank are not the only things worth striv-
ing for. We need happiness. But 'ifa

Lining Fruit Trees.

The periodical lining of fruit trces Isl

REMEMBER THY MOTHER.

Lead thy mother tenderly
Down life's steep decline
Once her arm was thy support,
Now she leans on thine.
See upon her loving face
Those deep lines of care:
Think it was her toll for thee
Left that record there. sa
Ne'er forget her tireless watch
Kept by day and night,
Taking from her step the grace,
From her eye the light.
Cherish we'll her faithful heart
Which, through faithful years,
Echoed with its sympathy
All thy smiles and tears,
Thank God for thy mothers love,
Guard the priceless boon;
For the bitter parting hour
Cometh all too soon.
When thy grateful tenderness
LoOses power to save,
Earth will hold no dearer spot
Than my mothers grave!
