Cheap and Superior Cotton

We notice that a Cotton Press which
costs $275 or more is advertised in our
Texas exchanges. We desire to call the
attention OF our read rs in that and other
Cotton States to Cotton Press manufac-
tured in this place that is cheaper, more
simple and, we believe, better in every re-
sPect than the high priced ones. The
Cummings Railway Press is in general
use N this section and gives unqualified
satisfaction. It is SO simple that it can be
put up by any carpenter. and costs but
$3.50 to to $I75, The iron parts are supplied
TO parties at a distance by the manufactu-
rer, Mr. c. R. Wood, at a cost of $o5 to

Statistical calculations have evol-
we'd the fact that the increase in the
population of the United States has
doubled once in p years. it's now
about 5000, 900 larger than in 1860,
aud the natural inference is that iu
1890 it will be about 64ooo.ooo.
Allowing four pounds Of wool T.
each person, it viii required I55.-
600, 900 pounds of wool to meet the
requirements OF the inhabitants Of
this country ten years heace. We
are now large importers of wool,
and yet We have countless acres Of
as good grazing lands IS eyes ever
looked at, with plenty Of water, and
climate in almost any section Of -.
country we'll ada ted to tie as ng

The growing demands for goods o
all kinds of which wool forms the
component part, makes it almost
com pulsory that this branch Of in
dustry should be carefully matured.
In worsted goods our trade is grow
ing rapidly, and unless we get our
supply of wool from our own grow
ers, this trade must leave our shores
for the more hospitable ones of Eng
land and France, where it is ten

attached, and the inducements are

The South Carolina Agricultural
Bureau is bitterly opposed to the
tenant system OF working land and
in favor of hiring the hands. The
tenant system IL running some OF
the finest land in the State, q late
report says. and destroying a large
amount OF stock 1t is decreasing
not only the labor supply, but th,
production Of the State, since, if Il
hand once begins renting land he
never will give up this system and
work Tor another person. The
trouble with the tenant system, the
bureau thinks, is that the negro has
never enough capital TO carry il on.
At the end OF The year, after he has
paid his debts, lhere is not enough
money left to teed his mule, and the
animal is half starved or fed on
spoiled western corn; it is able to do
less work, and what with this and
thrlftless farming the crop is a fail.
ure. Thus the land is impoverished
and the labor supply cut short with
out single advantage to show for
this system Of cultivation.

rooted plants, like clover, will pump
from the depths below for the use
of those that grow near the surface

that this element, when brought to

of their cause to be free. That very
rapid progress has been made, is
visible on every hand. The matter-

OF, Rotation. and Glover and

Grass Crops

Grass crops
the necessary steps towards an
improved husbandry are:
I. To cultivate less land.
2. To make that w hich is cuItiva-
ted rich in plant food, so thatit may
produce large crops.
3. The paactice Of a rigid system
Of rotation of crops, aud mixed
farming.
A. The cultivation of the grasses
and less of the cereals, and feeding
upon the farm the most of its pro
ducts.
:. Raising clover and enriching
the land by turning under green
crops.
| believe that the faithful practice
of SUCH system Of tillage would in
ten years increase the value Of real
estate 100 per cent, ant place the
farming population in an independ-
ent position. All observation and
experience go TO show that those
sections of the country are more
prosperous where a mixed system
of farming prevails. The farmer
who finds in his own garner that
which is needed to supply his daily
wants, is far removed from the veN
alton and losses attendant upon
outside purchases, which so severely
tax his means 1t is net urfte-
quently the case when he produces
but a single article for the mark et.
that it commands price which but
poorly COM ensates him for his la
Dor, while he has to pay exorbitant
prices for that which he is compell-
ed to purchase This is selling the
hide for penny, and buying back
the tail for shilling" which is not
profitable transaction, surely.
Mixed agriculture necessarily leads
to a system of rotation of crops,
which is the key to successful farm
ing. That there is vast recupera-
tive power in lands where a success
sion of different crops are grown,
no one can deny in the light Of uni.
versal experience. Thousands of
those who have hitherto devoted
themselves to a single production,
such as cotton, tobacco or grain,
now acknowledge this error.
Successive crops of the same
character exhaust lands Of the par
ticular food they require with great
rapidity. The aid which nature SO
freely renders, where crops rotate,
is withheld in such system of cal
tivation, because the farmer is vio-
lating her laws. To fight agrinst
nature is to war at fearful odds, and
it is not difficult to forecast the re-
suit To work in harmony with her
insures comparatively easy victory
One of the most beautiful of her
provisions is, that while the crop
exhausts the soil of that element
which enters mors largely into its
composition, by the operation of
some mysterious law, it prepares
that same soil for some other crop
of different character. This is
very curious and interesting process
of nature, which results immensely
to our advantage if we accept her
aid As an illustration of this prin
ciple, ve know that clover does not
successfully follow itself, although

BELL a1OssEsfy.

Editor Patron. | have seen moth
ing in THE PATRON for long time
from Bell county that is calculated
to convince YOU and the friends of
our Order that we are still alive,
still in the ranks battling for the sue
cess of those grand principles that
must, will and shall ultimately tri-
umph and rule the American people.
The Grange is quietly, gently,
gracefully but surely working our
those grand results that were con-
templated sin the foundation Of the
Oder. In all governments where
radical changes are needed, the best
way to effect those changes is to g.
to work and prepare the minds Of
the people for those reforms. The
founders of our Order saw very
clearly that the abuses, expressions,
frauds and corruptions that were
being brought to bear upon the toll
ing masses and wealth producers Of
this country by combinations of mo-
nopolies, money rings and soulless
corporations were unequal, unjust
and grievous to be borne, and if al
lowed to go on unchecked, or if
change could not be effected, then
the fate of the great mass of the PEG
pie of this country is truly deplora-
bic. Like sensible men, they went
to work 10 prepare the people for
the change, and wisely chose the
only plan by which success could be
attained-by organization and edu-
cation. By organization, to bring
them together that they be united;
by education, that they may see and
understand the unjust burdens that
they bear, the threatened dengers
that surround them, the deceptive
snares that are set to obtain the just
profits of thei, labor, that they may
also know the methods, means and
appliances necessary to be brought
to bear to lead them out OF bondage
How far they succeeded in prepar
ing the people for the change, shall
rot undertake TO say, but this | will
