"My patience" exclaimed the postmaster
here the other Thursday morning upon
taking up the mailbag at the "down train."
"What makes such q difference in the

Yes, indeed, that accounts for it.
Now, wish to say to all your readers,
and especially to this large number at the
Honea Path office, that this little place is
not behind in many particulars. We want

years, had never been at fishing party

OBITUARY.

Departed this life, in the full communion
of the Presbyterian Church, JAMIE NJ,
the beloved wife of Walker w. Russell, of
Pendleton, S. c., and the tender, loving
mother of six little children who can never
Know what they have lost. OF very supe-
rior mental endowments, she had also the
highest gifts of character-gentleness allied
to firmness; patience, joined with energy
and force, unselishness, constancy, and
answering truth. Clear in her perceptions,
ready in the acquisition of knowledge and
having sound judgment, yet was her Or
nament that meek and quiet spirit which
in the sight of God is of great price, and
which, for husband and family, makes
q real and true home.
Her last illness was Of tho most intense
and protracted sutferings, borne with un-
complaining chcerfulness and fortitude.
She obtained her release Monday, April %,
1870, at the age of thirty-three, and after
married life of thirteen years.
She is not dead, because Christ has abol-
ishcd death for all His people, but she
sleeps in Jesus. Her emancipated spirit we
cannot doubt is with her Lord. Her body,
still united to Christ rests i'll her grave in
the old Stone Church yard until the resur.
rection morning, when it shall be quickened
through the Spirit who dwells in US.
When in answer to her question the ply
sician told her she was dying, all her re-
manning strength was summoned to be
spent in an hour OF counsels, exhortations,
and prayers for the dear ones surrounding
her bed. 1t was a melting and yet tri-
umphant scene. Not minute dld she sur
vive her last words: "It is hard to die, but
sweet to die in Jesus" And so she depart
ed to be with Christ, which is far better.

Economy in Production.

W. ii. White, in Country Gentleman :
The profit in producing any farm crop,
consists in growing the greatest possible
amount from the smallest area, at the
lowest possible cost. An acre of ground
will naturally produce, with fair culture,
given quantity Of corn or other pro-
duce. If that amount pays for produc-
ton any excess over that is profit above
extra cost in culture, and this excess Is
always the profit Herein lies the
incentive for producing large crops. The
how 10 do it is the study Of the intelli-
gent, progressive farmer. A poor man
cannot afford to farm slovenly yet how
often it is the case! If he has only
manure enough for one acre, he cannot
afford to spread his labor over a larger
area than he can economically and
thoroughly use it upon. He cannot
afford to do work with his hands which
can well he done with the horse, or hire
work done while he himself is less profit
ably employed Economy must be
praetiosd in all things, especially in
small things, for all large ones are made
up of the smaller; and there are few
small farmers Cor any farmers) who will
not find that their profit lies in saving
in small things. 1t is these which tell

Asparagus.

Recent Investigations and expert
ments have proved that some of
the old theories relating to the cult
walton Of asparagus were erroneous.
1t was an old theory that the ground
must be paved with stone, two feet from
the surface, to prevent the roots from
penetrating the soil too deep; another
was, that it being marine plant, it
must receive Il liberal dressing of salt;
and still another, that it should be set
on strong, moist soil.
No one at the present time, so far rs
we know, attempts to follow the paving
theory, but many practice the appIica-
ton of large quantities of salt. Those
who have given the subject a careful in
vestigation are satisfied that liberal
dressing Of salt not only injuries its
growth, but also injdres its flavor.
While it will grow on almost any soil,
it is found to flourish the best on
warm, sandy loan.
Two rods of land well cultivated will
furnish an abundant supply for a large
family. The land should be prepared
by trenching eighteen inches deep, and
MANFRED with sixteen cubic feet of good
stable manure to the rod the trenches
to receive the roots should be eighteen
inches deep, and for garden culture
three feet apart for field culture,
three and half feet is not too much

Ivy.

If ivy plants that have been kept in
doors during winter, be put in the ground
on the south side of the house for sum-
mer, they will be benefited by the
change. Such treatment renews the
strength of the plants, making them
better for house culture the following

bear being put out of doors very early
in the spring. / find ii better not to

ivy plants TO the house in autumn. Far

size larger than those they are taken
from. The scale insect that sometimes
infests these and other hard-wooded
plants, can be destroyed by washing in
soapsuds, but they must be FlRSed inn
mediately after in clear, soft water.
The ivy must be kept free from dust to
preserve the rich gloss of its leaves.
The ivy plants should have the support
of trellises. to which they can easily be
trained in any form TO suit the taste.

What a Farm Deed Includes.

AT a recent meeting Of the Massachu-
setts Board Of Agriculture, Judge Ben
net stated in an address what "a deed Of
a farm includes:
Of course, he said, every one knows it
conveys all the fences standing on the
farm, but all might not think it also in
cluded the fencing stuff, posts, rails, etc. 3,
which had once been used on the fence,
but had been taken down and piled up
for future use again in the same place.
But new fencing material just brought
and never attached to the soil would not
pass.
Standing trees, Of course, also pass as
part Of the land so do trees blown or
cut down and still left in the woods
where they fell, but not if cut or corded
up for sale; the wood has then become
personal property.
Growing crops also pass by deed Of
q farm unless they are cXpressl Y reserv-
ed and when it il not intended 10 con
vey those, it should he 50 stated in the
deed itself; a mere oral agreement to
that effect would not be valid III law.
Another mode Is to stipuate that pos
session Is not to be given until some flu
ture day, in which case the crops or ma
nure NAV be removed before that time
As to the buildings on the farm, though
generally mentioned in the deed, it is
not absolutely necessary that they should
be.
A deed Of land ordinarily carries all
the buildings to the grantor, whether
mentioned or not; and this rule includes
the lumber and timber Of any old build
ing which has been taken down or blown
down, and has been packed away for flu
ture use on the farm.
But if there he any buildings on the
farm built by some third person, with
the farmers leave, the deed would not
convey these, since such buildings are
personal property, and do not belong to
the land owner to convey.
The real owner thereof might move
them off, although the purchaser of the
farm supposed he was buying and pay
wing for all the buildings on it. His on
ly remedy in such case would be against
the party selling the premises.
As part of the buildings conveyed, of
course. the window blinds are included,
even if they be at the time taken ofand
carried to a painters shop to be painted.
1t would be otherwise if they had been
newly purchased and brought into the
house, but not yet attached or fitted to
it.
Lightning rods also go with the house,
if farmer is foolish enough to have any
on his house.

table, is considered Il part Of the house,

House. Plants.

When a plant Is in Il bad condition, it
is mistake to apply stimulating fer

many, but the most general one with
those who have had no experience in the
care Of plants Is overwhelming Plants,
to live, must have water, therefore the
more water the better, seems to be the
reasoning, and the consequence Is

needed, and with invalids, a stimulating
fertilizer is the one thing of all others,
not needed. When plants are in a -four

then fertilizers may be useful, especially
if the soil in the pots was originally
rather poor. ANY Of the fertilizers used

hard-wooded, slow-groWing plants, very
fine bone-four of bone-sold by seed
men for the purpose, is perhaps the
best; few tablespoontuls being forked

used. This may be guano, teaspoon
