Pea Culture In the South.

There are q good many ditfsren
kinds-the fpeckled, or w%hippoorwill, i,
the one most generally own about here,
as it makes more peas than any other.
Then, there are the clay pea, black pea,
lady pea, and a good many others. The
last named is generally used for the
table; it is nearly as good as the navy
bean and more easily raised here.
We SOW them here most always among
the corn in the drills-a hill or two be-
tween two stalks of corn-at the first
plowing, which covers them; Or between
the drills at the last blowing. They
may be sown at any time in May or
June, but they will make good vines Il
soWn in July. depending a god deal
upon the season and condition of the
land. We step7drop three or four peas
in a hill; rows any width apart you de-
sire, from two to four feet and cover
lightly. No after cultivation is needed,
although it helps them greatly, if
pIoWed once Or twice. Seed is pretty
scarce here this season. Some years it
is very plentiful the gathering of the
peas being the biggest part of the job.
They will grow in the poorest land.
/ have been sowing them for several
years on poor spots, to bring the land up
again; the pea vines being q great
restorer of worn lands, as they draw
most of their rourishment from the at
mosphere.
They are a great and cheap fertilizer
to a wheat crop, it is said, although /
lave never tried it. ! have failed, 80
far, in turning them under while green,
the vines choking the rlow up to such
an extent as to make it a bad, incom-
pfete job. / always put my oat land in
peass after the oats are off. They cover
the. ground before frost. - Hesndado

The boy that went to the mill on horse
back, CARRYING the grist in one end of the
bag and a stone in the Sthery when reproVed
by the miller, and told to divide the grist,
replied that his father and grandfather had
carried it that way, and he, being no better
than they, should continue to do as they did.
Similar, or equally as absurd, reasons are
accounted as sufficient by some to warrant
them in indiscriminately co~ndemning DR..
Pierce's Family Medicines, even though
there is overwhelming proof that taey pos
sess the meEit claimed for them. For many
years the Golden Medical Discovery has been
recognized as the leading liver and blood
medicine in the market. Each year has
brought an increase in its sale, and it Is nov
used throughout the civilized world. Thou
sands of unsolicited testimonials are on file
in the Doctors office, attesting its efficacy in
overcoming aggravated coughs, colds, throat

ulcers and skin diseases. Are you suffering

Fastesaimn animals,

A very common error among farmers,
which needs correction, is the opinion
that animals may be fattened in a few
weeks and fitted Tor market by heavy
feeding, or, As it is termed, by pushing.
Many farmers do not think of beginning
20 fatten their hogs or cattle for early
winter market until autumn has actually
commenced. Their food is then changed,
and they are dosed with large quantities
of grain or meal. This sudden change
often deranges the system, and it il FREE
quently some TINS before they recover
from it. From observation and inquiry
We find that the most successful mana
gers adopt q very different course. They
feed moderately, with great regularity,
and for q long period. The most succeas-
full pork raiser that we have met with
commences the fattening Of swine fer
the winter market early in the preceding
spring. IN fact he keeps his young
sE49fne In d growing condition NIL through
The winter. He begins moderately, and
increases the amotant gradually, never
placing before the animal more than it
will freely eat. With this treatment
and strict attention TO the cleanliness Of
the animals, his spring pigs, 1t ten
months, usually exceed three hundred
and fifty pounds, and have sometimes
gone % high Is four hundred and fifty
pounds, and pigs wintered over, reach .
weight Of FIVE or aix hundred. The corn

THE CULTURE OF TIES.

Hannah snowden, writing in the
Home and Society" department Of
Scribner for May about her experience
in keeping house for the summer in the
country, says:
One idea | had in having a country
home was to gather in all the children
of cur families. Brothers and sisters
grow up together united. They finally
marry and separate. Then their chill
dren from being apart, know but little of
one another, and the strong family feel
ing that existed among the parents finds
no place among the offspring. Then,
too, petty ~iealousies spring up, which
can only bG avoided by mutual inter-
course. l hoped to make my home
common ground for all my nephews and
nieces, of whom there were about twenty.
These children, as in all large families,
were differently situated in life. |
wished to bind them together by com
mon pursuits and '.amusements, SO that
their future lives might be Influenced
for their mutual good. I wanted the
boys to 60 swimming together in the
river that ran by at the railway station,
to play hall, to milk the cows, to race
rabbits, and to grow hardy and selfreli-
ant in an honest rivalry of outdoor life.

A man in difficulties is a poor fellow
who was smashed up in the recent rail
road disaster near Vincennes, Indiana.
The ~omnivorous reporter published his
name in the list of wounded, two regu-
larly welded wives came to nurse him,
and neither world give him up to the
other, so both kept him in possession.
The publication disclosed his where
abouts to the police authorities, who
wanted him or criminal charges, as well
Is for a large reward offered for his ap-
p%rehension, and five detectives are guard
ing the house in which he lies, waiting
to take him if he does not conclude to

WHEN people feel the need of IN acid,
if they would let vinegar alone and use
lemons or sou apples they would feel
just as we'll satisfied, and receive no in
jury. And a good suggestion may not
come amiss as a good plan when lemons
are cheap in the market. A person
should in these times purchase several
dozen at once and prepare them for use
in the warm days OF summer, when acids,
especially citric and malic, or acids of
lemons and ripe fruits, are 80 grateful
and useful. Press your hand on the
lemon and roll briskly on the table to
make it squeeze more easily, then press
the juice into q bowl or tumbler (neyer
into a tim: strain out all the seeds, as
they give a bad taste. A few minutes
boiling is sufficient. Put a pound of
white sugar to a pint of juice, boil three
minutes, bottle it. and your lemonade is
ready. Puta tablespoonful of this lemons
syrup in a glass of water, and you
have a cooling, healthful drink.

Flowing is an art. A really good
plowman is a rarity as much as a really
good landscape painter, and yet blowing
liz one of the main items of valuable Ia
Dor upon q farm. / have seen one man,
while blowing, lean forward with hands
upon the pillow handles, and laboring at
one time to keep the plow from going
too shallow, and at another time to keep
it from going too deep; making a furrow
of irregular depth and with here q bulk
and there o ridge. I have seen another
ma take the same team, arrange the
gearing, and plow with one hand on the
plow handles, turning a throw clean, of
eve width and depth. Unfortunately
few plowmen understand the principles
of dEaught, and hence many a good ploW
il condemned as bad. It is this want of
knowledge how to use a pillow that keeps
back progress and reduces the value of
crops on many q farm. / speak know
ingly, having had practice, more or less,
between pillow handles for over fifty years,
commencing when eleven years of age.
I studied the art of blowing practically,
and being engaged in supplying farmers
with plows a part Of the time mentioned,
there was a necessity of knowledge of
the form Of the ploW and the principles
of draught.
In exhibiting and competing at state
and county fairs, it became necessary for
me to know how to ft my plow for this
work, and o necessary to find a plow-
man who understood the whole matter.
It took weeks to find such a plowman;
but I did find him, and every time he
was put in competition he won.-North-

Portable or Composition Roonnxs.

There is probably no article of manufacture
so universally needed az a reliable low priced
| roofing, which can be readily applied without
the aid of skill labor, and in no other direc.
| ton has SO great q wan been so ineficiently
supplied. The results of experiments with
felts, cements and other compositions have so
far been anything but satisfactory Numerous
so-called "cheap roofngs" have been pro-
duced, advertised, used and found worthless.
In view of these facts we are glad to be able to
speak faVorably of an article which, from our
W knowledge and the testimony Of some of
the most extensive and bestknown manufac-
turer's and merchants in this country, has
proven a reliable and economical substitute
for the more expensive kinds of roofing. We
refer to Ell. W.Johns' Patent Asbestos Roofing,
the manufacturers of which make no extrava.
CANT representations, but claim it to be the
only reliable portable rooingi in use, and from
careful inquiry We believe their claims are
wellfounded. This roofing is prepared ready
for use9 an be easily applied by unskilled
workmen. is adapted for steep or fat roofsin
all climates, and when finished with the uhite
.fTe-proof coating forms the lightest hand
soonest and coolest roof in the World costing
only about half as much as tin. Samples, illus.
trated catalogues, price lists, and any desired
information can be obtained from the H. VI.

This ~companyhaye recently completed a new

in the reach of every one. They also manu-
facture liquid paints, all shades, which are
guaranteed equal to any for general purpos-
es and the most durable for outside work of
any paints in use. In body and richness of
color the Asbestos Paints surpass any we have
ever seen. Fire-proof paint, an economical
substitute for white lead, costing only rs cents
per gallon, for the protection of factories,
bridges and other wooden structures against
fire, is also valuable for the class of outbuild.

of these articles and compare them with all
