RoCKDALE, September 10.--Cot-
ton is coming in rapidly.
Social entertainments are getting
"seldom.' Even the Literary" has
collapsed.
Heavy rains have fallen lately in
this vicinity, and farmers say that
cotton is putting forth new blooms,
promising, if undisturbed by worms
or frost, to yield good top crop.
The fall fights have opened, and in
view of shortness of crops and con-
sequent difficulties in effecting salts
factory settlements, we have reason
to believe that business in this line
may be unusually brisk while the
season lasts. f.
"There is Divinity which shapes
mems ends rough, hew them how we
may" and there is a trade which
legitimately belongs to Rockdale,
which will come whether we get
the new railroad or not-but we
would rather take the chances with
the road.
DO not know the religious poll
tics of our good mayor, never hav-
ing caught him in any of the
churches here, but if he was the
cause Of the hogs disappearing
from our streets, he is christian.
There appears to be on the part
of the citizens of Rockdale lack of
concert of action when anything of
importance comes up. In the opin-
ion of your humble correspon-
dent, the result of efforts put forth
now by Rockdale and other towns
in Texas, will decide the destinies Of
those towns. Ere long from the
present vigorous planting of north

A Denver paper says that enough
alfalfa has been sold in that state
this year to seed 10000 acres, which,
next year, will give an increase of
10000 tons of hay, worth 81 ,250,000,
estimating the yield at six tons an
acre. On some farms near Denver
it has produced eight and nine tons.
The average results of experiment
and theory, so to speak, makes 81
pounds of Indian corn equal to 100
pounds of hay, or 1,140 pounds of
corn to the ton of hay. But it must
be remembered that the nutfftive
effects of food upon an animal are
varied by many causes, and also
that the comparison of food is af-
fected by the object sought, us fat,
growth, labor, milk, etc. The above
is the relative amount OF nutritive
matter in corn and hay, as deter
mined by experiment and theory.

There is general impression that
a farmers life is one of the health
lest of all. And so it is if guided
by judgment. But there are hun
dreds of farmers and double the
number of farmers wives and
daughters whose health has been
completely broken up by too much
work. women Oh farms are often
oppressed with work. Besides the
housework, they are often looked
to to help at the milking. There is
no use in this, or in trying to do too
much. Planning goes a great ways
toward Tightening work. Every
morning let reasonable days work
be contrived, and then, when it is
accomplished, stop. Don't think be-
cause you have finished the settled
task long before night, these endless
days, that you must keep trudging
on. hunting up new things to do,
not laid down in the days pro-
gramme; unless you want to wind
up with fresh, clean house and
the wreck of woman to enjoy it.
If farmer can not make his farm
pay without making drudges of his
wife and daughters, he should quit
the business. A woman should
have some rest.

THE PROPOSITION TO LOCATE VET
ERAN CERTIFICATES IN GREER
COUNTY.

The scheme, conceived by Col. j
NJ. Swisher, for holding Greer county
lands as veteran reservation,
was mentioned some time ago i'll the
STATESMAN. 1t now appears that
5. NJ. Swenson Il Sons. of New York,
have taken hold of the proposition
and propose with, the aid of the
veterans, to put it in operation. The
veteran certificates, issued and to be
issued under the law of the seven
teenth legislature, will aggregate,
it is estimated, 100000 acres of
land, and the plan is to vest
in the old soldiers title TO lands in
Greer county, the Swensens taking
a locative interest therein fer the
money necessary to carry out the
project. These gentlemen also agree
to advance to veterans, if desired,
upon 1880 certificate $3.50, holding
lien upon the location for this
| money, which may be returned,
the veteran thereby securing title
to GAO acres of the land. A few
of the certificates have already been
sold, and, it being desired that all
| veterans become interested in these
locations, it is proposed TO admit as
signees of certificates to an interest
in these lands, provided they agree
to a return of their money and to
donate one half of the location to
the original guarantee. In other
words it is proposed to make inves-
tors equally interested with the
Swensons, according 70 capital in
vested, in the results of the scheme,
upon condition that they give the
veterans whose certificates they have
purchased the same privileges ex-
tended by the Swensons; that is,
should half fthe land located be worth
the amount paid for the certificate
the veteran may refund and become
possessed, in lieu thereof, of
one halt of the land, the
investor holding the same interest
in the land. But should the pur-
chaser prefer not to become part
ner in the scheme, the money paid
for the certificates will be refunded,
together with such reasonable COM
pensation for trouble and use of
money as may be just, and the GER
tificate will be located, along with
the others, for the benefit,of the vet
erans, to whom it was issued, the
same as if il had never been sold
The scheme has every appearance
of being an admirable one, both for
the veteran and the investor, and
Mr.. Swenson will do himself credit
and deserving band of old patriots
merited service in carrying out
what is proposed. Those interested
may learn something more definite
by writing to Col. j. III. Swisher, of
this city.

THE LESSON OF DEMOCRATS.

Republicans, IN espousing the
cause of Malone in Virginia, are en-
eouraging reputation. The Rich
mond States, in reviewing the posi-
ton of parties in Virginia, declares,
that should the debt payers be de-
feated in honest purposes by the
combination of Republicans with
Malone, respect for the obligations
of the federal government must
necessarily be impaired among all
classes in Virginia: 1t says: The
decentralization of our people will
become universal, and their policy
as ultra as the most pronounced and
fanatical Greenbacker could desire,
while the whole south, now conser-
vative in its financial sentiments,
will join with the west in its widest
schemes for repudiating the national
debt whether by sowing the land
knee. e.deep with greenbacks, or by the
simple plan of applying the prin-
ciple ofVirginia readjustment." This
assumption is decidedly too broad.
The people of the south will be led
into no such radical extreme as the
States predicts. They are the bull
wark ofcOnservatism in this country,
and it is folly 10 think that, because
Malone and the Republicans OF Vir-
ginia commit great wrong, the
people ofthe entire south will be led
into the committal ofwrong through
spirit of retaliation, or otherwise.
Look at the conservative Democra-
cy of Texas it has paid every cent of
debt created by the Republicans in
Texas. When the Democrats of
Texas resumed the administration
of our state government, after re-
construction" every dollar of debt
was summed up, bonds issued,
bearing enormous interest and SELL
ing at tremendous discount, and
these were used to pay off the vast
amount of floating claims against
the state. So the Republican debt
was provided for by Democrats,
and Tor the last three years
the work of canceling the
states bonded debt has been
steadily progressing, and to-
day these obligations are held In
more esteem by capitalists than are
those of the United States. Texas
sentiment upon the subject of pub
lie debt may be accepted as an in
dex to the feelings of southern Dem
ocrats upon that question, and from
this position they can not be led,
because there is no Mahoneism here,
and because Republicanism and all
other isms in Texas are powerless to
drive or lead the state into
reputation. Ours IS a pop
ulation made up of the
best clements of the whole
south. and it is out of such compost
ton Democrats of Texas have Sc
lected the state officers that have
shaped our state policies and
achieved our great pub lie success as
q people.

The Pamela Wdtchman repeats a
statement, made by the Emory Ay-
gas, to the effect that Judge Reagan
stated, in speech at Tyler a few
days ago, that the reason why
Governor Roberts favored Austin
for the state university, instead of
Tyler, was that he and certain
politicians of Austin traded, the
considerations being influence and
nomination. Anybody who
knows Governor Roberts is satisfied
this is untrue, and it is just as
well known that Judge Reagan said
no such foolish and untruthful
thing. 1t is simply one of those in
famous falsehoods, circulated by the
enemies of Austin, that good people
might thereby be convinced they
should not sustain Austin. Tyler and
Waco and these other places might
have added largely to their vote by
contlning themselves to truthful
canvass.
