THE SELECTION OF FowLs.-Some
good farmers think the common barn
yard fowls just as good for profit, on a
farm, as fancy varieties. Upon such we
wish to impress the necessity of constant
selection, each year, of those to be kept
for future breeding. One who should
follow this rnle for ten years would have
a flock of fowls fit to exhibit; and his
profit during the ten years would have
been much greater than by the common
plan of keeping any fowls you happen to
have. The flock is reduced every year
by killing; let those for market always
be the most undesirable in form, etc, re-
tain those that have been healthiest,
hardest, most thrifty growers and the
finest in form. This will cost you moth
ing. A pound of chicken from the least
desirable OF your focks will sell in the
market for about the same money, al
though these cost you more in proportion
to weight than the best; you should al
ways get rid Of an undesirable chicken at
the first opportunity. A few years of
proper selection will give you breeders
that produce nearly uniform chickens
The best feeders cost less per pound, and
from their uniform growth look better
when dressed and bring better price
in market. Let every farmer adopt this
system of selection, and he will soon
be an enthusiastic believer in blood

CAPT. F. w. DAwsos's ADDRESS.

CAPT. F. w. DAwsoN's ADDRESS,
We notice in the Anderson Is. G.. In
telzigencer the published address of Capt.
F. w. Dawson, one of the editors and
proprietors of the Charleston Me,us and
Courier, to the State Press Association,
delivered at the annual meeting in Spar
tanburg, May 10, 1876. We cheerfully
bear testimony to the high order of intel
lect displayed in this address, the intre-
pidity and general soundness of views
inculcated, not to speak Of the master
full command of appropriate language
and the pathetic and noble defense Of a
profession of which the speaker is so
prominent and valued member. Very
few young men, of this generation, have
fought uphill to victory with so much
pertinacity and robustitude as Capt.
Dawson. He has risen solely on his
personal merits and may reasonably look
forward to consummate triumphs in the
future. He has a masculine and culti-
vated mind, is a prodigy of unaagging
industry and rejoices in a pronounced in
dividuality which would, under any cir
cumstances, assert itself and win for the
possessor,a a place in the front rank of
contemporaries. We have not had the
good fortune to agree with Capt. Daw-
son, on all occasions; but at no time
have we doubted his extraordinary gifts
and accomplishments, energetic character
and the power of professional achieve
ments.-AugustG Constitutionalist.

How DRINKING CAUSES APoPLEXY.
1t is the essential nature of all wines
and spirits to send an increased amount
of blood to the brain. The first effect of
taking glass of wine or stronger form
of alcohol, is to send the blood there
faster than common hence the circula-
ton that gives the red face. 1t increases
the activity of the brain, and it works
faster, and so does the tongue. But as
the blood goes to the brain faster than
common, it returns faster, and no special
harm results. But suppose man keeps
on drinking, the blood is sent to the
brain so fast, in such large quantities,
that, in order to make room for it, the
arteries have to enlarge themselves; they
increase in size, and in doing so they
press against the more yielding faccid
veins which carry the blood out of the
brain and thus diminish their size, their
pores, the result being that the blood is
not only carried to the arteries of the
brain faster than is natural or healthful,
but is prevented from leaving it as fast
as usual hence, double set of causes of
death are in operation. Hence, a man
may drink enough of brandy or other
spirits in few hours, or even minutes,
to bring on a fatal attack of apoplexy.
This is literally being dead drunk.-Dr.
Hall.

TRUTH STRANGER THAN Fiction

TRUTH STRANGER THAN FIcTIoN.-
The Asheville IN. C.) Pioneer says: A
number of men met at a house on North
Tow river, Mitchell county, for the pur-
pose of a general spree. AS usual in such
cases fight ensued, and in fight be-
tween young man and drunken COM
panion named Tooly, the former was dan
gerously stabbed in the abdomen. In
this condition he was placed in blanket,
pole run through loop in the same,
and the ends-shouldered by two men, who
attempted to carry him where he could
get surgical aid. The path led along the
side of a rugged mountain, and they had
borne him some distance when the knot
through which the pole ran loosened, and
the wounded man was thrown down the
mountain, his intestines catching on
bushes and winding around him as he
rolled down its precipitous side. He was
alive when picked up, and his friends
carried him to house in.the neighbor-
hood. We are informed that an old
housewife was called in to attend him.
She pushed back the entrails and sewed
up the orifce with packthread. Later
in the day DR.. Huggar arrived, who
gave it as his opinion that the operation
had not been properly done-that Davis
"paunch" was not in the proper position,
and that some of the minor entrails we're
missing. This he ascertained by giving
the patient several hearty shakes: he
said t"the sound was too hollow" At
his order the man was again ripped open,
while parties were sent in search of the
missing entrails. They found several of
these indispensables to the progress of
digestion, and hurrying back to the house,
handed them to the NJ. D. AS they were
very dirty, be rinsed them in cold water,
sprinkled little salt over them as pre-
servative, and then put them in the pa
tient. The wound was reserved and when
our informant left it was thought that
Davis would recover. If he does, life
insurance policy would be the greatest
extravaganza he could indulge in.

OLD-FAsHINEED FARMING.--What
would you think of the cabinet maker
who should undertake to make furniture
on large scale by means that were used
eighty years ago, saving out all the parts
by hand instead of machinery. How
would timer get along with the old,
fashioned tools, disregarding the use of
die and stamps? How would the wagon
maker succeed shaving spokes by hand,
mortising hubs by chisel and mallet? Or
how the shoemaker, disdaining sewing
and pegging machines? Well, they
might possibly make a. living as they
turned out their clumsy jobs, while others
working by improved and best , methods
are getting rich. The old,tashioned
farmer with poor tools, and disdaining
book knowledge, and the modern farmer
with the best of tools, and with his
head full of ideas, are parallel cases.

Se1f.ImprOyement.

There are many young working men
who are anxious to improve their minds
by reading and study out of business
hours. But too many grow discouraged
and fail in their efforts for self improve
ment, although they begin with the best
intentions.
A want of thoroughness in whatever is
undertaken is, perhaps, one great cause
of such failures. A practical writer on
that topic gives the following good direc-
ton "Never leave what you undertake
to learn until you reach your arms
around it, and clench your hands on the
other side" 1t is not the amount of
reading you run over that will ever make
you learned, it is the amount you retain.
DR.. Abernethy maintained that "there
was point of saturation in his mind"
beyond which it was not capable of ia
king in more. Whatever was pressed
upon it afterwards crowded out some
thing else. 1t is probable that few of
us have minds more sponge like than
that of the great doctor.
Every young man should endeavor to
perfect himself in the science of the bus
iness he has chosen. Without this, he
must always content himself in the lower
walks of his calling. The cost of few
cigars will buy all the books he requires,
and his own diligence may be made to
we'll supply the place of a tutor. With.
out such diligence, the best teacher IN
the world could not manufacture him
into scholar. If once going over
point will not master it, he must tackle
it again. Better give weeks study to
page than conclude that you can not
comprehend it.
But though it is wise to give your main
strength to your own speciality, you
should not con6ne yourself to such study
exclusively. The perfection of all your
powers should be your aspiration. Those
who can only think or talk on one sub
iect may be efficient in their line; but
they are not agreeable members Of soeie-
ty in any of its departments. Neither
have they made the most of themselves.
They become one-sided and narrow in
their views, and are reduced to humil-
iating dependence on one branch of in
dustry. 1t costs nothing to carry knowl-
edge; and in times like these, to be able
to put his hand to more than one branch
of industry often serves man a good
turn.
Do not attempt too much in the way of
study to begin with you will surely lose
heart if you do. Be humble and modest
in aspirations, and if you are diligent
never fear but that you will hear voice
saying: "Come up higher" Be content
to gather the precious gold of learning
grain by grain you will soon be able to
see the growing and will learn from it
the wonderful power of the Titles, which
is felt and shown in mental as well as in
golden grains.
