USES OF LIME ON THE FARM.

The value of lime to The farmer ia &c
great that, IN many mountainous regions
where beds of limestone rock are TO be
found, it would certainly pay farmer
to occasionally burn a quantity. A
second grade quality is as good for farm
purposes as the whitest grades.
The effects OF lime on soil are partly
mechanical and partly chemical. If an.
piled to deep alluvial. or to clay soils, il
increases the product, particularly of
root crops. such as potatoes, turnips,
beets, etc. II sown broadcast over grass
lands, pastures or alfalfa fields, it tends
to destroy the weeds aud coarse grasses,
while, at the same time, it improves the
growth of the more valuable species.
The good effects of lime on grass lands,
or, il lime cannot be procured, OF mari
chalk aad broken shells, have been
plainly visible for as years.
Ths farmer applies the term "sour
soils" to such soils as have alkalies, or
acids in combination with ammonia, or
simply various acids, the effect of which
is to prevent the healthy growth of de-.
sirable crops. Lime applied to suoh
soils is always an advantage. Lime acts
upon the inorganic parts of the soil, such
as sulphate of iron and alumnia. 1t even
ameliorates the subsoil, helping to de.
compose granite trap and sillcate rocks.
By combining with the acids of the sell,
it produces potash. soda and other COM
pounds fit for plant food.
In the work of the farmer, lime may
have other usee. Applied to piles of
dscaying weeds, it destroys the germin-
ating powers of the seeds; sown over the
leaves of growing plants, it drives away
insects, it decomposes waste vegetable
matter and it proves fatal to worms,
slugs and larvae of insects. These are
practical advantages which ought to be
understood BY every farmer.

The Tenth District.

The Dispatch is shocked because The
republicans claim the 10Th district, and
says that Mr.. Anderson will carry it
by handsome majority. The editor
of the Dispatch is responsible to some
extent for impressions that have been
made in regard to the 10Th. We are
informed that prominent sporting
democrat went to the editor of the
Dispatch for advice as to the safety oil
uetting on Anderson, and that he was
advised to the contrary and told among
other things, that the 10th would
be close. He was talking privately to
friend then and spoke his honest
sentiments. His editorial is bun
combe.
But aside from the Information said
to have come from the editor OF the
dispatch, the republicans have infoT-
nation of an absolutely different char
acter, and they really expect to carry

Mysterious Disappearance of
Money.

Mr.Gaines Hsrrill tells Us Of the losa
Of money from his home at two differ

is rather shrouded ia mystery. In the

had been there ever since the death o!
his wife. The trunk was kept locked,
the key on his key ring, and was only
accessible to him and his present wife.
About three weeks ago Mrs. Harrill
had occasion to look into the trunk
and was astonished to find The bill
taken from the pocket book, but moth
Ing else was disturbed.
Again, week or so after that, Mr..
HarrilPs sister-in-law was visiting al
his house, and q S. bill was missing

Bad News for the Democrats.

An influential farmer from the
lower end of the county, of democratic
procIivities, and one of the leading
men in the party, brings rather poor
encouragement for those loud mouthed
democrats about the city, who are
swearing by all that's good and bad
that Billy Anderson is going to be the
next sheriff. but who, when called
upon 10 back their judgment, fail to
respond. This leading democrat was
heard yesterday to give express
sion of his views of the mat
ter to a small crowd,
Composed of leading city democrats,
with the exception of CHRONICLE
representative. The country demos
cTat first inquired of the others about
the political outlook in county matters.
One Of them replied that Anderson
and Swan were going to be elected, the
others ventured no prediction of their
own. Finally the country democrat
was called upon to give his opinion,
inssmuch as he was leading man
in the party, and posted, especially
in the lower end OF the county.
His reply was frank aud some
thing like this: well, gentlemen,
I'm just as much of an Anderson man
as any one, but I believe we're gone
up.p He said that was the way things
looked.in his part Of the county, and
that Gossett appeared to be sweeping
everything. He expressed his belief
that he (GossetD will carry both the
10. and 18th districts. But few more
words were passed on this subject, and
the gathering dispersed.
