RIVER LANTATION

1t does seem with Us, these fine
estates have been most bungllngly
managed since the war. No species
of property has deprecated III value
i'll the same proportion. Their
owners seem to be the last men con-
forming to the new era" We
know Of an instance on Roanoke,
where one of these places, a few
years ago, sold low,-bringing
some sixteen thousand dollars.
The new proprietor put up some
SIX or seven thousand dollars of i'm
provements. 1t changed hands
not long since and brought only
about four thousand dollars. The
attempt has been made to run
these farms upon the old slave sys-
TEN. How any farmer could con-
jure such a hope Of success III his
breast, we are at a loss to know
implements, mules, slaves, credit,
all gone. 1t was as if the waters
he had been accustomed to see
flowing to the ocean, had suddenly
stood still, and flowed back to the
mountains. To make crops of
corn, cotton and tobacco, it took
hard and incessant work. 1t took
labor that was certain, fixed, and
disciplined. These old places are
grand yet, but they are grand only,
as monuments. To u eyes it is
a sad picture. Times change and
it is sometimes wisdom for men to
change with them. But how
change? What are we to do? Our
solution is this! Sow clover. Quit
cropping and sow clover and or
chard grass. Quit working demon
allied free labor upon credit or bor-
rowed capital; to find each year
your mules dying and wearing out;
your buildings falling and going to
decay; your bitches tumbling in
and filling up, and the sheriff each
season more annoying about his
taxes.
Quit all this, we say, and SOW
clover and orchard grass. We fail
to see how any farmer, who has a
place that will bring clover knee
and waist high can be poor and
complaining.
What a profit, and with so little
worry and annoyance, a few mares
would be, raising mules, making a
small corn crop, and feeding upon
these grasses almost the year round.
What a profit, and with so little
labor, moving and baling this hay
would be. What a profit a few
breeding sows would be, raising
here, great crops of pork, with little
labor and capital, and supplying all
the highland sections. 1t looks
like a mockery to see farmers here
after twelve years of struggles and
failures clinging to the old paths of
what ought to be the past. How
strange it looks, on these fine, fer
tile grass lands to see a hired negro
pulling fodder" Here a slow OK,
and there a broken-down mule
drawing a s---gle plow-simply
scarifying these lands to be more
easily washed away by the next
rain.
1t takes capital, ready and plen-
tiful to run these places, with the
idea only, of cropping.
In the absence of this, we repeat
SOW clover and orchard grass. They
are both cheap now, very cheap;
and but few acres of these rich
lands we'll seeded and managed.
will make any farmer independent.

What do you think the sweet word wifi"
comes from? II Is the great syllable In which
the English and Latin languages conquered
the French and Greek. hopc the French
may some day find an expression for the idca
in lieu Of that dreadful word femme. But
what do you think 1t comes fromf The great
value Of Saxon words Is that they mean some-
thing. Wife means weaver" You must
either be housewives or housemoths; re-
member that. In q deeper sense. you mus
either weave mems fortunes and embrcider
them, or feed upon and bring them to decay.
Wherever true wife comes, home Is always
around her. The stars may be over her bead
the glow.worm In the dewy grass may b the
fire at her feet; but where she is dwels the
spirit Of home; and for a noble woman Il
stretches far around her; better than houses
ceiled with cedar or painted with vermillioa,
shedding quiet light for those who else arc
homeless. This is woman's trucst place saA
highest power
