8 o'clock, a young man named Charles VII
son, while standing on Main street, in front
of the Arcade saloon, was struck In the side
by the tongue of hack, driven by Henry
Taylor, and received injuries which will
probably terminate fatally Tho bystarders
say that Tay lor shouted to Wilson to get out
oftbe way or he wJuld run over him, etc..
and Wilson attempted to jump ASIDE. but
too late. Wilson was carried into the Water

his relief. Taylor was promptly aTfo.led,
and when accused IF making use of the
above expression, he deni d it, but sd-
mitted that some one in the hack had said it.

The Field Pea.

Gen. VIM. NJ. Browne, of Geor-
gia, in his late address before the
Agricultural Society of that State,
remarked that next to sheep, the
greatest renovator of the soil was
field peas.-''Planting, as we gene
rally do, corn after cotton, and grain
of some kind, usually oats, after
corn, and repeating this rotation
year after year, the inevitable result
after a few years, is the exhaustion
of the land. The pea is the remedy.
1t restores to the soil the nourishing
elements of which it was despoiled,
and if the rotation be from grain to
cotton and from cotton to peas, the
supply of the necessary elements
can be fully maintained. l have
tried this year the process recon-
mended by DR.. Ravenel-peas and
the ash element-and will report
thr result when ascertaine1. Peas
as a renovator of soil from which a
small grain crop has been taken,
should be sown as soon as possible,
after the crop has been removed
but if sown on land planted in
cotton the previous year, April or
May is the best time. If sown
then, they may be, plowed under
in June and after allowing suffi-
Gent time to elapse, say ten
days or two weeks, to allow the
vines to decompose partially, an
other crop may be sown, which
may be either plowed under a the
fall or allowed to lie up.,a the
ground. do not know of any bet
ter forage crop for stock of all kinds
than pea hay properly cured and
properly prepared for stock food /;
and even where the hay is cut, only
leaving the roots to fertilize the soil.
great improvement results. Where
peas are sown for the purpose of
hay, it is desirable, l think, to mix
it'll them corn or millet. These
give support to the trailing pea
vines and improve the quality of
the hay."-Ex

Most of the drunkards have liv-

Now, brother Patrons, urge the
Lecturers on to their duty, and tell
them never to fail to give a special
lecture to Master and Secretary, for
when those two officers fail to do
their duty the Grange will die out
but where you see good Master
YOU will find a live Grange One
other advice to County Lecturers:
they must never fail to get as many
subscribers for Grange papers as
possible.
Fraternally, w. M. BLALoCK,
Steward Texas State Grange.
