.o LEADyILLE, Col, August II, '82.a
" The impression prevailing to some
extent in the East that Leadville Is
iaplayed OUT and soon to be num-
bered with the things of the past is
an ERRONEOUS one. 1t true that the
feverish excitement of the early dis
:coveries, and the enormouss pecula-
tive tendencies following thereupon,
have mostly passed away, but the
yield Of ore here is still on the in
crease And new mines are being
opened up almost daily. More than
one half the total product of bullion
in Z the State for 1881, Which was
nearly Sz4,ooo,ooo, came out of these
hills and holes round about Leadville,
and it is estimated that nearly SI5.-
900 900 have been taken out during
the first six months of this year. 1t is
not surprising that the wonderful
wealth and extent of the silver de-
posits that have been found in this
region; the new field that has been
opened to mining industry wherever
the carbonates may hereafter be
found; the novel character of the ore
the ease with which it is reduced; the
sudden wealth acquired by some O

HOW RAILROADS EFFECT TOWNS.

II will DO remembered that tho Cole
system, in running its rond into Macon,
found 1t necessary to locate its line
through the graveyard. This was re.
sisted and the case carried to tho Su-
preme Court OF Georgia, which has
just decided that the dead must not
interfere with tho progress of tho liv-
ing, and the road will go through tho
graveyard. James Gordon Bennett
said on his death-bcd: "I will die day
after tomorrow, but I don't want the
Herald suspended for my burial" Ben
nett understood the wants Of tho liv-
ing. Half a century ago, Decatur, Gcor-
gia, prosperous village, objected to
having the shops of tho Georgia rail
road and was afraid of the irish labor
ers. They were located in the woods,
and there to-day stands Atlanta, the
"Queen City of the South"
Covington, Georgia, rejected tho re-
quest Of the same road to go through
the streets of the village. To-day Gov
ington stands monument to the mis-
take Of fifty years ago. Covinston oil
fifty years ago feared the railroad would
frighten horses in its streets. CovinG-
ton of to-day fears it will have no horses
in its streets to frightcn. At the same
time, Atlanta has six roads through the
heart of the city without killing horses,
but, on the other hand, it moves along,
increasing with rapidity which is pho
nomcnal.
Elyton forced the railroad around its
limits; Birmingham let tho road
through its centre. To-day there is no
Elyton, while Birmingham's growth
almost rivals Atlanta's. - Coiumbio

SOWING CORN FOR FODDER.

There is nothing the farmer can get
as much stock food from for the amount
of labor expended as he can from q
patch of sowed corn for fodder. Now
is good time to begin preparations.
Select your ground, and unless rich give
1t a good coat of manure and plough 1t
under. Let 1t lay until the last of May
or the first of June then replough and
harrow until the surface is thOuroughly
pulverized then SOW the corn with a
drill, about one and a-half bushels of
shelled corn to the acre II you want 1t
for fodder alone, as by sowing thick the
stalks will he smaller and you will
have larger quantity of blades and
tops that the stock will eat up cleaner.
BY sowing thinner you will get larger
and heavier stocks, and by sowing a
little earlier and letting stand longer
you can secure good supply Of nub-
bins. I prefer thick sowing as 1t shades
the ground more completely aud weeds
have no chance at all to grow; hence,
there is no need of cultivating. Cut as
soon as it is tasseled out we'll lay 10
bundles until thoroughly cured, and
then shock up or haul to your barn.
If you have never tried 1t you will be
astonished at the quantity of fodder
you can raise on a small patch of ground.
Besides getting a good supply of fod-
der chcapiy farmers will find this crop
a great help during August. When
pastures begin to fail and dry up and
the supply of green food gets short you
can keep your stock growing and i'm
proving all the time by cutting and
feeding from your patch of fodder. We
all know that very often stock loses
considerably during the very hot days
OF August when the grass in the pas
lures gets short, and that, too, just
when it is most desirable to keep them
growing. A good supply of green corn
grown in this way will be of great ben
eft at this time. 1t takes but little
ground and very little trouble to give
it trial, and we know from experience
that tried once you will never be with
out your patch of fodder afterward.-
