To RECOVER Worn OUT LANDs.-The
character of a great deal of land in Western
North Carolina is somewhat similar to that
In Virginia, where the best wheat land ex-
lists.
1t has a very tenacious subsoil in fact, in
this respect it Is superior to the Virginia
lands. The most casual observer will note
that the hill side land in this country is less
liable to wash in gullies. Go to the far less
steep lands of Eastern North Carolina and
you will see on every hill not in actual cult
vation gullies SO deep that it is impossible to
plough across them. Then examine the
subsoil of this land and you will at once see
that 1t is porous, easily melted, if | may be
allowed the expression, and therefore easy
to run off with every shower of rain. | de-
duet from these facts that the worn out land
of Western North Carolina is more easily re-
claimed than any land | have noticed. 1t
will hold itself together, retain manure and
thus reclaim itself with half a chance.
Now suppose | have an acre Of land |
wanted to improve without manure. Saw
an old field that had been turned out. First,
[ would cultivate some crop to cleanse and
get the wild grass subdued, say cow peas or
something of the sort. The next spring [
would SOW it in oats and clover about the
first OF April, and at this sowing | would put
about a bushel of plaster. This in an ordi-
nary spring will ensure a stand of clover.
The next spring | would apply in May as
much plaster. This will double the growth
of clover. The spring after | would plaster
again in the same way and keep stock off Of
it. Nor III the following fall turn it about )
inches and SOW in wheat. The land will be
SO far ''convalescent" by this time as to give
you ! or S bushels of wheat to the acre.
Now and go the same round
again. and at the end of six years Won will
have your acre of land to produce at least
from L to ID bushels to the acre.
But you say that | claimed to improve
this acre without manures, and then recon-
mend the use OF plaster.
Now | contend that plaster is not a ma
nure in the strict sense of the term, bat a
condenser or gatherer of the ammonia, that
is ever present III the air.
1t is not worth a cent as a manure to put
to the root of the plant, but Is only valuable
when applied to the tender growing plant to
enable it to catch the ammonia in the air
and feed upon the food that God has put to
its iips.-S. {. Shelton.

AN EPISODE IN JOHN BUNYAN's LIFE

AN EPISODE IN JOHN BUNYAN's LIFE
A curious episode in John Bunyan's life has
been unearthed by a London magazine. 1t
is a valuable contribution to our too scanty
knowledge of the Glorious Dreamer. Mrs.
Agnes Beaumont, a Bedfordshire conten-
porary of Bunyan, relates IN her journal
how she rode from her native village Of
Edworth to a church meeting at Gamlin-
gay on Mr.. Bunyan's horse. 81 had not
ridden far, she says, ''before my heart be-
gan to be lifted up with pride at the
thoughts of riding behind the servant Of
the Lord. and was pleased if any looked
after US as we rode along. Indeed, | thought
myself very happy that day first, that it
pleased God to way for my going; and then
that | should have the honour to ride be-
hind Mr.. Bunyan, who would sometimes be
speaking to me about the things of God.
My pride soon had a fall, for in entering
Gam'ingay we were met by one Mr.. Lane,
a clergyman, who lived at Bedford, and
knew us both, and spoke to as as we rode
along, and soon after raised a vile scandal
upon Us, though, blessed be God, it was
fa'se.n. When she returned home, her ia
ther, who was an i%rreligious man, turned
her out of the house, and would not let her
in for several days. He called her thus
sey," and even threated to throw her into
the pOnU. ONE eVl1-mlnueu inc1 oI INC
village, especially one Mr.. Fairy, a great
enemy Of the Dissenters, had set her father
against Bunyan; but eventually the old
man saw his mistake and relented. The
quaint narrative throws a flood of light on
the social and religious life of the time to
which it relates, and furnishes a striking
a testimony at once to the great influence
exercised by the author of the 'Pllgrlm's
Progress in the regions where he laboured
as a preacher, and to the malice of his enc
mics in the Established Church.

The ATTEST. The bridal menus now be-
coming fashionable in Southern Germany,
contain, when the facts will permit, almost
an entire pictorial history of the lives of
bride and groom. They are on cards of
pretentious size, nearly eleven inches square,
which are profusely illustrated. The bride
groom is depicted engaged in his usual occu-
patton; at the bottom is the church wherein
the ceremony was performed at the top,
mingled with hymenial emblems, are photos
OF the most interested parties, and In the
center stauds the native home of the bride,
around which is grouped the menu and the
programme of music performed by the mill
tary band Oh the occasion. This would save
the newspapers considerable trouble if
adopted here.

KEEP THE Cows HEALTHY.-It is now

KEEP THE Cows HEALTHY.-lt is now
generally conceded that milk unduly retained

as to allow the bag to become intlamed, and
thus poison the milk. This being the case
from any cause. the milk should never be
used. The milk may not show signs of faint
to the eye; it may ever taste well, or SO
nearly right as not to cause alarm and yet
it will faint the entire mess, and IN the end
the whole will become little better than
poison when made into cheese, since then
the putrefactiye process still goes on. If
the COW shows any tenderness or redness
about the udder, or if it be hard or swollen,
discard the milk until the animal is again
all right. Through this care certain dairy
men are able to get extra and uniform prices
for their butter and cheese, and especially
for the milk sold for family use. In the end
they make the most money, tor consumers
and reputable dealers are apt to be shy of
those who have from time to time sold them
such milk, or its butter and CHEESE.

HUNTING FOR A FIGHT.-In ante-bellum
days there lived in Tennessee a man named
Patterson, whom Gen. Jackson backed by
challenging the world to produce a man to
whip him. At that time there lived in
Halifax, Va, a Martin Daniel (whose grand
children live near this town, who thought
be could clean Patterson out, and three
times did he shoulder his rifle and walk to
Tennessee and back expressly to test Patter-
sons manhood. but it was not until the third
trip that he met an opportunity to 'tangle
with Gen. Jackson's bully. Arrangements
being made at it they went-and after a des-
perate and long fight Daniel came out the
victor, much to Old Hickory surprise. Re
turning home Daniel stopped at a store on
the route to rest where he found another
bully proclaiming himself the best man that
walked the earth and constituting this into a
challenge Daniel went for him and gave
him an unmerciful beating.
Patterson was subsequently killed by some
fellow shooting a hole through him big
enough for an owl to fly through. We don t
know the man that shot him, but recon he
was an agent Of the Fool klller.--H'fton
