The chronological Journal, speaking
70 the healthfulness Of fruit, says that
when DR.. B. F. DunkIey went to Dunks
burg, Mo thirty years ago, there were
no orchards, and very few vegetables
raised. The diet 1f the people consisted
chiefly Of cornbread, bacon and black
coffee. Inflammatory disorders of the
brain, bowels and heart and malignant
afflicted the community, and
were often attended with fatal results.
DR.. DunkEeY told his patents that their
blood needed no medicine other than
vegetable acids, and ordered them to sat
oranges, lemons and sheep sorrels. Nov,

Farmers have plenty of room and land
to spare, on which fowls may be kept to
advantage. Cheap houses can be built
upon their premises to shelter hundred

eggs in abundance, to use in the house

There is very little labor to be per

A Leading Crop.

In view of the diversified character of
farming, and the many kinds Of animals,
grains, fruits, etc, ETC., that can be grown,
the question naturally presents itself to
he farmer: How many kinds of produce
can | grow, and with the greatest profit?
There are so many things to be taken
into consideration, as the kind Of soil,
distance from market, climate, and not
the least, the individual taste Of the
farmer. that it is often hard matter to
decide upon the crops to be grown. As
a general rule, however, it is best to
make some one thing a speciality the
one best adapted to the taste of the man
and the circumstances with which he Is
surrounded, and let the other products of
the farm cluster around it and play a
secondary part All cannot grow grain,
neither can all be sheep raisers, or breed
ers of swine or cattle. We are not speak
ing against a mixed husbandry, but
against a loose farming without system.

The South is making rapid strides to-
wards prosperity. In reviewing the trade
and business statistics for 1881, facts have
been revealed of the most complimentary
character to the Southern States. Com
paling the records with those of the
North, East and West, it is shown thai
the greatest progress has been made in
the Cotton States. A far greater variety
of interests, With largely increased CAPT
tai, is the most prominent feature to note.
There is a greater diversity of industries,
of crops, Of ideas, social and political.
Wealth is rapidly accommodating and CAPT
tai finds the most inviting fields there,
and is rapidly flowing in. The invest
ments in cotton factories, mills and
factories, 1aills and spindles have proved
so remunerative that cotton will soon
cease going East to be converted into
clothing. The clothing factories Of the
future viii be much nearer the cotton
fields than they have been III the past. =

Nelson u Convicted BOlter.
Duluth Bee.

The treacherous gang led by Washburn's
man Gordon, himself a foreign mercenary,
that bolted the regular Republican conven-
ton, and set up an independent candidate
in the person of Washburn's other crea-
ture Nelson, for the purpose of promoting
the pine land thieves conspiracy against
the people of the Fifth district, COM
menced their corrupt and traitorous cam
paign with characteristic slice of impu-.
dence. They declare that their man, howled
into something resembling caucus nomi-
nation by the Minneapolis tools of Duluth's
arch enemy, and their paid abettors at
home, was the regular nominee. They as
serted that their canvass was to be made
solely on that issue, and appealed to the Re-
publican voters of the district to indorse
their fraudulent action. By and by the Re-
publican congressional committee knocked
spots out of that position by refusing to
contribute funds to the Washburn cam
paign on the very logical ground that
Nelson was bolter from the Republi-
can party and that the regular nominee
of the party was Charles F. Kindred.
This action on the part of the highest po-
itical power within the party lines any
where, was speedily followed by the action
OF Inc hepUDlcau State cenJral cOmm1JIee.
which recently decided that the convention
which nominated Mr.. Kindred was regular
in all respects, at the same time indorsing
Col. Johnston its chairman. From this
decision it necessarily follows that the So
called convention which nominated Nelson
was fraudulent. Mr.. Nelson is quoted
as saying that if he thought
himself bolter he would Withdraw. He
has the decision of the congressional and
state committees, and for that matter the
people as well, against him. Nobody ap-
pears to make any pretense for him on the
ground of regularity but himself. 1t is
greatly to be hoped, however, that he may
not be convinced. It is necessary for the
future good of the party that people like
Nelson and his master Washburn should be
severely rebuked and punished, as they will
be on the 7th of November.

The Boston Transcript has the following
genial notice of the author of the re-
nowned Mrs. Partington's deliciousiy inno-
cent sayings: An ssold man with a cane''
is not an uncommon object in the city
streets; but when that man is the person
and that cane the auxiliary limb of one
who has contributed largely to the reading
public's enjoyment, who was for many
years the bright particular star of almost
numberless social gatherings, and whose
fun was always fresh and crisp and never
unkindly, the man and the cane are
pleasure and benediction. We feel that
we but echo the sentiment of all his old
friends and admirers when we express the
hope that the affection which he 'sinherited
from his wife's family" will henceforth
treat him more leniently, that Benjamin P.
Shillaber and his trusty cane may be
oftener seen taking their walk abroad, and
that his sunset days may be as bright and
genial as the thousand and one good
things that have come from his ready pen.
Judge Robertson, before the Saratoga
convention adjourned, having heard that
Stephen B. French was falsely reporting
him, telegraphed as follows: ''Gen. James
G. Hustled, Saratoga: Stephen B. French

resent me in the state committee. His
unauthorized appearance was an insult to
the Westchester delegates and fraud
upon me. It is machine tactics over
again. w. Fl. ROBERTSON.
White Plains, Sept. 20 wednesday,"
Hustled knavishly suppressed the
telegram, and the convention, without any
knowledge of the forged proxy, nominated
Folger. Folger accepts, on the ground
that his nomination was made unanimous,
suppressing the fact that at that moment,
the forgery was not known. Folger now
admits the forgery, but accepts the nomina-
ton.

A Novel Cure for SMALLPOX.

A boat which was conveying sixteen
Cinnamon sick with the smallpox to a
hospital in San Francisco bay suddenly
upset. The Cinnamon were thoroughly
drenched in cold salt water, and it was
a full hour before they could be placed
IN comfortable quarters. The physicians
and attendants OF course supposed that
they would all die, but to every ones as
constituent they all got well. If China
men with the smallpox arc cured by
the application of cold salt water, may
it not show that the previous treatment
was all wrong. The people of San Fran
cisco would very willingly dump all
Cinnamon, sick and well, into the bay.
and would not cry much if they never
got out of the water. - Demoresfs
