An old man said to me today:
DO you know that it is the rarest
thing to find a good cook in the
southern family? Before the war
the southern people had the best
cooking in the world; now we have
the poorest This is the reason In
the slave days every southern lady
was an accomplished housewife.
She selected n servant who was to
be the cook and trained her herself
She supervised, instructed and ad-
yised until the cook had become
perfect and was installed as cook
for life. In training their cook
mothers trained their daughters. IL
the slightest thing went wrong in
the kitchen either mother or daugh-
ter could at once detect and correct
it Hence VIC had cooking that was
famous the world over. Whv. IN
those days if had been called on
10 supply one article by which alone
the south could demonstrate its
superiority, L should have selected
the old southern waffle. | think it
was Of rather a finer perfection than
oW Craftsmanship. The waffle is
now only a memory. Tt persisted at
AfpOmattoN. Since the war the
southern women are no longer cooks.
Having to deal with casual servants,
there is no longer any temptation to
train q servant as q cook. There is
really all the more reason than ever
they should understand cooking.
The schools, 700, are against us.
They teach music, French, German.
painting and dancing, and have no
time for the useful arts"
"Iou object tothisE7
Yes. u had rather my daugh-
ter could make a biscuit than
paint face. l had rather she could
roast a turkey in one language than
sing a song in ten"

Wives Of Men Of Genius,

The world is too apt to think that
men Of genius can not be good hus-
bands, and that the wives Of men OF
genius must inevitably be martyrs.
If the world would be honest enough
not only to recognize the fact that
most wives are martyrs. whether
their husbands are geniuscs or not,
but also to save wives from much
risk Of martyrdom by allowing wo
men to he in all respects rs free as
men are to make the best Of their
lives, and by putting no artificial
straiHt on Che intellectual and social
independence of either sex which is
not imposed by nature, men Of
genius, as well as men Of no genius.
would be less likely than they now
are to have unhappy wives. or to be
themselves made either happy or
unhappy by their wives unhappi-
ness.

Perhaps nothing better has been
done to make publicly known and
appreciated the adoptability Of wo-
men for business than their employ
ment in the national Offices. 1t is
very confidently asserted that there
are things in the departments chat
women can do better than men, and
many other things quite as well.
Where the duties require some de
gree Of legal knowledge and mathe-
NAUTICAL ability, and whore the forma-
ton OF Judgment, decision in con
tingencics, and the use of the reason
ing power is requisite, men. on the
average, show more fitness than wo-
men. There have been women.
however, who have proved to be
efficient accountants, examiners of
claims, and keepers of books and
records. In short it Is strongly
claimed that the experience of the
public offices proves that IL al is
open to women as to men, under the
same responsibilities and discipline.
there are few if any pointSin which
women would be found 60 fail more
than men.

Preserving Ferns.

July and August is the most
favorable time for gathering, as they
are then at their best. In pressing
the indispensable requisites to- a
good result are a sufficient quantity
of paper, a perfectly even pressure
and a proper degree of weight. The
paper should be Of a soft, porous
nature and unglazed. Blotting
paper is considered best, but news
paper will do very well. Books are
most convenient if they can be found
of sufficient size and unglazed.-
Three or four weeks will be required
for the drying unless they are
changed to fresh papers. If this is
done they must not be exposed to
the air moment, or they will curl
past recovery. If perfectly dry,
they will remain smooth.

An anomalous conundrum comes as a
corallary to statement now being as
siduously published by Bolter organs :
They say that before the election lead
ing whisky men were calling on Gen.
Bate to run for governor in their inter-
est. Be it known that the Banner and
the Lebanon Herald were the loudest
in calling on Gen. Bate before the con-
vention, with other able assistance.
Now: Who are the leading whisky men {?
Can it be that these Boilers were the
men who were trying to get things
fixed up in their favor, and failing,
bolted the arrangement? How these
fellows do get themselves in limbo. We
don't charge it-Of course they are not
the ones--but they convict themselves
on their own testimony alice sameo.

Crops which are planted in beds
or drills require a large amount of
manual labor unless on ground free
from the seeds of weeds. A sue
cessful cultivator of the strawberry
says it will pay well to devote the
season previous to setting out a
plantation to thoroughly summer
following the ground, going over it
every time with the plough, cultiva-
tor or harrow before the weeds can
get above the surface. This work
is done rapidly and cheaply with
horses; but if omitted a vast amount
of unpleasant work must be per
formed the next season by hand.
This management will apply to other
crops, such as carrots, turnips, etc.

----- - . s--------
Growth Of Hungarian Grass.

Being n shallow feeder, and natu-
rally a rapid and rank grower, the
young plant pushes forward vigo-
rously, the roots extending quickly
to occupy the fertile upper layers
of the soil, now thoroughly warmed
by the summer sun, and not yet
freed from moisture, until soon the
whole field becomes covered with
vivid green. The close seeding
causes the plants to crowd, and the
rankness of its natural growth APP
pears in rapid extension Of leaf and
culm rather than in the coarseness
of leaf, and the plants, mutually
shading, become, to 4 slight extent,
etiolated. So long as the nights
are warm the tendency to upward
growth continues until the height
of about three feet is attained, when
in the natural course the heads be
gin to appear above the leaves. If,
however, the plant receives q check
at an earlier season, upright growth,
in q large part, ceases, and the
heads appear. Thus q single cold
night, when the plant is eighteen
inches high, has caused the appear
ance of the head, and has dImin-
ished the crop at least one-half in
some years.
This fondness for heat, this en-
durance of drouth, this rapidity Of
growth, all indicate the best soil,
for it is a warm, dry soil, contain
inc abundance of surface fertility.
This great cropping capacity,
three or four, or even five tons per
acre, shows that we can afford to
give it manure and a choice of soil
on the farm. This rapidity Of
growth again shows availability as
catch drop; and this adaptation
is of peculiar value when from any
cause there is a failure of the hay
crop; for then after the fact is
known (after the early hay is
housed }, a few acres Of the sod can
be sown, and an abundance Of ex-
cellent fodder can, with certainty,
be secured for keeping the stock of
the farm through winter Nation

Mr.. Alex. Stephens is well known
as a friend of the young, and his
name is associated with the educa
ton of many a boy struggling for

tent of his good work in this direc-
ton is perhaps known to few. There
are now no less than fourteen young
men and women dependent on his
big heart for their education. For
some of these he pays merely the
tuition and for others all expenses.

There is no substitute for clover,
says a farmer, so far as / know
nothing to take its place. 1t is bet
ter in its effect on land than any
other forage plant. 1t is said that
a good crop of clover-say such as
will yield two tons of hay cured
from an acre-will leave an equal
weight of roots for the soil That
is like a crop of manure. The best
crop is that which leaves most to
the soil, and that is what clover
does. 1 hope it will not lose its
place in our farming for there is no
plant so beneficial in its effect.

A romantic story is told of the
late John Nautly, of Philadelphia,
who came from Ireland about go
years ago and made an immense
fortune in Buenos Ayres, where he
died not long since. He began life
as an apprentice, and when he had
grown rich he adopted a beautiful
girl who was educated abroad and
was to have been his wife, but-the
old, old story-she fell in love with
q younger man and wished to mar
ry him, although he was penniless.
When she explained the situation
to her grey-haired patron, the old
man gave up his claim. Marry"

had educated for another, was
found there, kindly remembered.

1t is a well established fact that
the earlier ground is turned for
wheat the more it will produce
There cent rains have put the ground
in fine condition for blowing, and
the farmers would do well to have
all their plows running. If the
grain is in the barn or stack, and
the moving done, there is probably
no work on the farm so important
as this. Besides the increased yield
of wheat, there is the other import
ant consideration, that if the rain
should cease the hot summer sun
will soon make the ground too hard
to plow.-Ex.
