COTTON SEED Cotton seed. which
planters are sending in such quantities to
market, contains the life OF the soil, the
lint abstracts but little nutriment from the
land, in comparison to the seed.
How few planters reflect that they are
robbng themselves and their heirs and
assigns by sending their cotton seed to
maakct, instead of returning them to the
soil as manure.
We are literally selling the fat of the
land, in parting with the cotton seed as
we.do.
The oil, when expressed, goes to the
soap maker. and into hundred other
uses, the eIcake goes to Europe, chiefly
to England and Scotland, to fattsn Brit
ish cattle, and make richer the we'll titled
British soil while the best part OF the
seed is totally lost for any farm use
this is the hull, SO very rich in phos-
pilates.
The hulls of cotton seed, which are
worked up in the south, as most Of them
are, are fed to milch cows in cities, or are
used as fuel
We trust the day will soon come when
if cotton seed must be used for oil ma
king, that they will ne worked up near
the cotton fields, SO that the planter will
receive back the oilcake and the hulls to
his own beeyes, cows, and woak stock,
and returned as manure to his soil
The oranges should take up the sub.
ject, and see that their cotton lands are
not robbed as they now are.
cotton seed oil mandatory is not \
very costly establishment, and every
neighborhood should have one To all
appearances they are as profitable as tan
yaads, whisky mills or state Offices.
One OF the chief duties OF the grange
is not only to promote the cultivation Of
the soil, but to stimulate and aid the cul.
tivators.
Improvement of farms and farmers is
the motto.
We can no longer calculate on wearing
out lands and then moving west.
The west has disappeared in the land Of
grasshoppers and mountain deserts.
No farmers of the world have such
materials to make ample manure Of the
richest quality as have the cotton plant.
ers They can, if they will build oil es
adjustments in their own neig ghborhoo ods,
and get back tue oil cake and hnls not
only have less corn to raise, but they
will have manure heaps that will surpass
any of the commercial fertilizers, and
their lands may be made more fertile
each year - Co operatics News.

A QUEER CoNTRACT.-An Iowa lobor-
er has sued an old farmer on a rather
queer contract. The man hired to the
farmer on the condition that part of his
wages should be paid in money, and that
for the balance he should receive one of
the old mans daughters in marriage
The labor was performed, and the money
paid, but the girl was not forthcoming.
This was not the fault Of the old man, but
of the daughter, who refused to be made
subject of bargain and sale. Whereup
on the laborer sued the father on the con-
tract, but we are not informed whether
the suit is for specific performance, or for
damages. If FOR damages we apprehend
that the lsborer has good cause for action
though his damages must be small if pro-
portiened TO the value of an unwilling
wife. The great suit of Jacob VS.. Laban,
1st Moses, SO, does not afford precedent
as it was compromised by the parties and
it seems that the legal talent Of Iowa will
forced TO wrestie with a new principle in
jurisprudence. The case will probably be
left to jury whose verdict will largely
depend on the matrimonial experience oi
its component parts.

PARTISAN SUICIDEs.-No other city in
tistics relating to suicides as the French
metropolis. This desperate resort seems
10 be epidemic at all seasons of the year.
The means employed are various, the
water of the Seine and the fumes of char
coal are the most common but there is
one mode which is almost peculiar TO
Parisans alone.
Officiul statistics show that one hundred
and twenty-seven individuals have cast
themselves from the summit of the Col
umn of Vendome which rears itself near
.ly n hundred and fifty feet in the air, in
the center Of the Place Vendome. Our
readers will remember that during the
reign of the Commune in Paris, this
grand monument erected by the first Ma
poleon in 1905, was pulled down, but has
since been restored to its former height
and completeness, except the statue of
Napoleon, which has not been replaced
on the summit, for obvious political
reasons.
From the Column of July situated in
the Place de la Bastile, rearing its lofty
proportions over one hundred and fifty
feet bcavenward, f0rty-nine individuals
have leaped to destruction. What a
strange iniatuation must have possessed
these desperate people as they stood upon
the lofty pinnacle beside the gilt figure of
the Genius Of Liberty, for moment be-
fore they hurled themselves into space.
From the summit of the Arc de-Triompho
ot the upper end of the Champs Elysees,
the official record also shows that thirty
one individuals have sought instant death.
This triumphal arch is situated upon the
highest grounds in Paris and is the finest
and largest structure of the kind in the
world.
But of all the lofty heights from which
the suicides of the French capital have
leaped TO certain destruc ton, the famous
tower of Notre Dame takes precedence.
ii rs an official record has been kept sine Q
the commencement of the last century,
aud it exhibits the fact that seven hundred
and siYty-seven desperate human beings
have thrown away their lives by leaping
from the towers to the pavements down
below.

THE STORY OF AN ARAB.

The story of Cincinnati newsboy who |
found pocket book, containing 500,
and returned it to the owner with contents |
intact, reached Philadelphia in good sea-
son and was productive Of considerable
sensation among the street Arabs. One
small boy was so affected by it that he
straightway determined to see that Gin
cinnati boy, and go him seventeen or
eighteen better. He took another small
boy into his confidence, and the test of
probity of character was carried into ef
feet. Boy No. 2 dropped a well padded
ppcket-book which boy No. 1, following
.closc behind, picked up.
Tlen with a look on his face, which
would have done honor to Benjamin
Franklin, the honest little fellow walked
up to an old gentleman, who was passing
by, and, extending the pocket book, said,
with trembling voice, "Take it, sir ;
it's yours. You dropped it just now. My
mother and seven little brothers are starry
ing, but cannot keep it, sir, for it don't
belong to me-" The old gentleman took
a look at the boy, then pulled out his
spectacles and adjusted them for better
sight. He could not sufficiently admire
the wan visage Of the little street wanderer
illuminated as it was with glow of good
ness and honesty.
He patted the boy on the head, and
pulling fve-dollar bill from his vest
pocket, handed it to him, saying, Boy,
you will grow to be great man. Take
this money for your starving family, and
always remember that honesty is the best
policy" Then the old gentleman skur-
ried into the nearest lager beer saloon and
opened his pocket book. Then he began
t. dance around and call on heaven and
earth to witness that if ever he encounter
ed tnat boy again, he would fay him
alive. And he continued to crate until a
policeman was called in to arrest him as
a lunatic, and the only excuse he could
offer for his conduct was that small boy.
