The Cultivation of Coffee.

1t is frequently asserted that the cul-
profitable than that Of the sugar cane,
as the former industry does not re-
quire the comparatively large amount
of capital which is needed for the lat
ter. The young coffee plants must be
protected for the space of two years
against the rays of the burning sun,
which is generally effected by the con-
struction of light roofs. In the third
year the little trees are transplanted into
regular fields, and the fourth year the
tree bears fruit and continues to Yield
for twenty-five years on an average.
The trees must be carefully attended to
with the scissors. us they should not
exceed the height of five or six
feet. 1t is pleasant to see plantation
of coffee trees, especially when the trees
are covered with snow white blossoms
or when the red berries are hanging
between the dark green leaves. A
plantation of two hundred thousand
trees needs but twenty hands constant,
ly in attendance-ten for watering and
ten for roofing out the weeds. In the
harvest time about fifty men are re-
quired for gathering the fruit, and an
equal number for cleaning the trees.
This work, however, lasts but two
months. A tree yields from one to five
pounds year; on an average about
three pounds. You may purchase a
pound Of coffee in the neighborhood
of the plantation at five cents pound,
and in the cities at eight and ten cents.
The planter obtains generally six dol
lars for one hundred pounds of coffee
and as his expenses for this quantity
amount to only three dollars, the profits
are ane and
the quality Of the produce surpasses
the quality grown on the West India
Islands, and connosseurs pronounce
it equal to the famous Mocha. As soon
as the railways have created cheap and
rapid means of communication the ex-
port of this important produce will
surely take. considerable DIMENSIONS

Women i'm Cities.

From Demorests Monthly for APRIL
One Of the curious revelations of the
census is the large increase OF females
in cities. New York has nearly $4,000
excess of females over males, Boston
over $4,000, and indeed in all OF the CT
ties north of the Potomac and east OF
the Mississippi there are more women
than men. In the olden times it was
the men who came to the cities, leaving
the women in the homesteads but the
changes in modern industry, but more
especially the growth of manufactures,
have had the effect of emptying coun-
try homes of the women who did most
Of the making of clothing. In the
times of our forefathers the weaving,
spinning and other employments gave
work to the females of the family in
their rural homes. But with the growth
Of manufactures home labor was dis
couraged and employments were to be
found only in the large towns and cities.
1t is the more surprising that woman
should come in such numbers to cities,
as landladies do not like them, and
prefer patrons of the other sex because
they can pay them better and are not
so much trouble in the household. But
necessity knows no law. Women are
in the field as workers, and to earn their
living must seek the large centers of
population. The tendency is not a
wholesome one, but society in time
will doubtless do what it can to sur
round woman with guards which they
do not have in their rural homes.

The fall season of the year is coming
on. A cold blast now and again from
the North warns US to beware of APP
preaching frost. [ make no preten-
tons to foretelling the weather, but
will say that this year, so far is similar
to the year before last. 1t this year
continues wet much longer, look out
for early frost. There is nothing very
new or of special interest to write up
for this week. Anyhow, | shall give
you few little dots. The Morgan
railroad is doing live business killing
horses and cattle. Is it right for this
rich corporation to allow their engine
drivers to run over and kill poor work
ing mems stock aud refuse to pay for
same, which is the case. A learned di-
vine remarked few evenings past IN
our presence that "guupowder was a
civilizer, and the best the world had
ever Known" Capt. A. NJ. Haas and Ia
dy departed on yesterday mornings
train for Opelousas. They went down
to place their children, Misses Mamie
and Binkie and Master A. Haas IN MIS-
M. M. Hayes school. We hope for the
Young ladies and Master AIS success in
their school days and the pleasure OF
being in Opelousas. Capt. Sam Haas
called at the bend last. week staying
long enough to take in the locals. MI
Cannon of Marksville gave us shor1

road to Marksville, would say build
a narrow gauge from some point on Re
river running nearly wes6 to comnec
with the narrow guage roads leadin
east and west from Houston, Texa.
This route would give you access to a
fine belt of timber to be found in til
State. Now that the Hon. E. w. Rot
