Then If we are to teach the

become the custom Of our
farming families then shall we

How Farmers L,oss Money.

BY not taking one or more good pa
pers.
Keeping no account OF farm opera
tons, paying no attention to the maxim
that "a stitch ia time saves nine" in re-
gard tn sowing grain aud planting seed
at the proper time.
Leaving reapers, plows, cultivatOrs,
etc, unsheltered from the rain and the
heat OF the sun. More money is lost in
this way annually than most person,
would be willing To believe.
Permitting broken implements TO be
scattered over the farm until they are
irreparsble. by repairing broken imple-
ments at the proper time many dollars
may be saved-a proof of the assertion
that time is money.
Attending auction sales and purchas
ing all kinds of trumpery because, in
the words OF the vendor, the articles are
very cheap.
Allowing fences To remain unrepslred
until strange cattle are found grazing in
the mcalow grain felds,or browsing on
the fruit trees,
Disbelieving the principle OF rotation
OF crops before making a single expert
ment.
Planting fruit trees without giving
them half the attention required to make
them profitable.

WHIT G.. IL May Is.
In last weeks issue OF your paper, in
communication from Parkersburg
signed ~, it is stated that Cot Ben
Wilson will not get the majority OF the
vote from Writ county in the Wheeling
Congressional Convention. To those OF
us on the ground this statement seems
rather funny. lie will get four, il not
the six, votes OF Writ.
As To the State ticket, Camden OF
Jackson will get the county for Govern
or. The only objection To Camden Is
his having been fortunate financially,
and il is from few oue.horse papers
that cannot bleed him Tree enough.
Hon. ID. ii. Leonard will carry the
county for Attorney General II candi-
date, and also carry the entire Little
Kauawha Valley.
Joe Miller will no doubt carry Writ
for Auditor. Tom West will be re
elected, think, for Treasurer. DIR.
Pendlet0n ought to be- unanimously re-
nominated, as a more cultured gentle
man cannot be found In the State than
our present State Superintendent OF
Free Schools.
Col. Robert White. II candidate for
reelection Tor Attorney General, has
some warm friends, and Hon. h. Willis
Wilson, ui kanawha, has champions as
true as steel. II Hon. ID. III. Leonard Is
not a candidate, then the county Is

The County Convention for the coun.
~ OF Preston Mas called to order at
o'clock P. N. to day, by John Barton
Payne, chairman OF the County Com.
mittee. Gus. j. Shsfier was made chair
man, and Charles W. Jackson and Geo.
Purcell were chosen secretaries.
ME-. Payne moved that two commit.
tees be appointed, one on resolutions
and Que to name delegates to the sew
eral conventions, each committee to be
composed OF one person from each dis
trict TO be chosen by the several dis
lricls
To this Mr.. WIS. Raymond offered
as a substitute, that the members of the
two committees be appointed by the
chairman. Upon this a discussion en-
sued, participated in by Messrs. Dent,
Raymond, Monroe, Payne and Worth
ingtOn, the result being the defeat
OF both. Dir. Payne moved again the
original resolutions, which were carried.
The committees thereupon retired, and
the chairman introduced the Hon.
Charles James Faulkner, who, in his
usual elegant and telling manner, pro-
ceeded To address the Convention.
At the conclusion Of his speech Hon.
Daniel Is. Lucas addressed the Conyen-
ton IN a most able manner. The audi
ence was large and appreciative.
AT the conclusion the addresses Mr..
Payne, from the committee TO name the
delegates, reported, and preiaced his re-
marks by saying that Messrs. Dent and
others, representing Sylem, Reno and
Union, had not seen fit To meet with
the committee, but the committee hal
selected delegates for those districts, aud
had taken care that the best men had
been sent, without regard To whom
they favored; that even the gen
tlemen who opposed the original
resolution and had refused to cooper
ate had been placed upon the list of
delegates that they did not propose that
that convention should be packed The
report was adopted.
Col. X. w. Monroe, chairman OF the
Committee on Resolutions, reported a
list ut ringing resolutions, which were
read by the Secretary, MIR. Purcell. Res
olution No. 3 provided for the abolition
OF the National banks.
Mr.. James III. Carroll, recently elected
one of the directors OF the Little Bank
here felt constrained to oppose that reso-
luton, and the contest between him and
MIR. Payne Was very lively.
Mt. WOrthingtOn remarked that II
Mas enough Tor any Democrat to see how
tho Republicans, in Democratic Con-
vention, cheered Mr.. Carroll.
The resolutions were adopted unanl-
mously, With the single exception OF
Mr.. Carroll, who voted against that par
ticular resolution.
The tight as Ia the manner OF appoint
ing the committees Was the test of
strength between the Martin aud Lucas
men, the Lucas men insisting that the
committees be designated and appoint
ed by districts and the Martin men that
the chairman appoint the committees
Ii will he seen that the Lucas men won,
but as there vas no disposition to "set
up" for him, there are a number ot Mar
tin men in the delegation.

Why Do We Plow Our Crops ?

To keep them clear, of course. les,
at course, but that is not all. II We did
not use the pillow, the weeds and grass
did not grow it would be necessary to
use the plow for several other reasons.
Air is as necessary for the roots OF
plants AS To the leaves, for even those
elements OF plant food which are OF at
mospheric origin are chiefly furnished
through the roots. Ii the soil is not
stirred the atmosphere does not easily
circulate through it, aud the plant, TO
that extent, suffers.
The roots OF the growing crops must
penetrate the soil in search Of food, for
they are only capable OF approprlating
the elements of nutrition IN the soil by
coming in contact with them. Ii avails
nothing To the farmer that his land is
rich, il the physical condition OF the
soil is such that the roots Of his crop can
not find the food which it contains.
They can Ito this only when the soil is
loose enough for them to penetrate it;
aud one of the offices OF the pillow il TO
put IL in that condition.
The quantity of available plant food in
the soil is increased by its thorough pull
yerizatiOn and disintegration because,
practically, the amount ol soil surface
is multiplied just in proportion As that
disintegration is effected. A solid cubic
inch oi earth, for instance, presents only
six square inches of surface to the root,
whereas, ii il is cut into ten parts, each
an inch square and one tenth vi an inch
thick, there would he twenty square
inches Ot surface exposed; and upon the
suppOsition that the elements Of fertility
were equally distributed through the
whole, the available supply would be
more than trebled by the communion.
The pillow, therefore in pulyerizing the
soil, not only enables the roots to travel
further in search of food, but multiplies
the supply within their reach.
keeping the soil stirred increases its
capacity for absorbing water from the
rains which fail, renders it more capable
Of pumping up moisture from below bv
capillary attraction; and thus 1t is that
crops which are well worked stand
drouth better than those which are not,
