Improve Your Stock.
FROM the RuraI Record.

IRON. the Rl,raI Record.
TIE surest way TO success is In the
Improvement OF the stock on the
farm. II is not necessary. In order
to do this, to resort 10 the extrem ely
high.pr,ced animals, which are often
beyond the reach of the ordinary
farmer; but liberal patronage can
be given to those enterprising breed
ers who endeavor to introduce blood
ed sires in every way suited tor pur~
poses of Improvements OF common
stock. Such sires, while not posses
sing perhaps certain points emitting
them to be ranked among the best,
may be the equals Of the fancy cues
in purity of blood and certainty OF
transmittal of qualities 10 their OH
spring.
The difference between a FLOODED
animal and a common one is the pu-
rity OF the former, which enables 1t
to transmit its qualities almost TO d
certainty. 1t does this not only Ill
color and form, but in nearly every
other characteristic peculiar to it.
S.. An important consideration OF this
matter is the increased value given
to farm stock by judicious breeding
Farmers are not compelled to pay
high prices in order 10 have first class
stock, but can easily double and triple
the value of the common stock pY
use OF blooded sires alone. The buy
err seeks them, and the farmer has nc
market to seek. His Judgment ant
attention fnd him market at home
and greater reward.

convinced that am in error, that it
is the pine bloom that causes rusty
fruit. Ii any one wishes TO test the
matter, ne can make a canopy out of
thin domestic and spread it over the
tree by arranging frame work OF
poles to hold up the cover during
the blooming season.
AS for the growth and bearing of
the young trees, let every one use
his own Judgment. My plan is to
give the tree while young, a good
heavy coat of straw or grass every
year.A Also, four to six pounds of
orange tree fertilizer. Plow within
two or three feet of the tree, begin>
ming by the first Of March at the out
side. Plow tolerably deep, then
sweep and plant peas. Every forty
or sixty days until the last Of Sep.
TENDER, sweep over; then plow IN
der the pea vines, or mulch with
them and sow down heavy crop Of
rye or oats. Rye is the best. Push
your trees and keep trunk ard tor
growing SO as to cause the fruit tc
split and drop off. By this means
at eight or nine years old you have g
body strong enough to support and
a top big enough to hold, good
crop.
AS for the good character of oul
country, little need be said, as it il

talked and petted the darkeys to get
their money and votes, we all sup.
posed they would swallow one or
carry him on their backs, solely for
the poor darkey's sake.
We old natives of the State did
not like this kind of way of doing
things, as it made the darkey think,
he was to be president or a preacher
or something. Their money soon
went and so did the carpet. baggers,
(ior now suppose that this first crop
of Yankees were carpet baggers)
The poor darkeys were often home
steaded on the State lands; no mule
was sent nor nary ration ever
reached them.
But our present crop of Yankees
who are filling up the State, we find
TO be very different in every respect. |
They have developed and are devel- |
oping the country, putting their |
money and brains at work and making
these parts look as if an Eden had !

don't seem to like the taste of the |
darkey quite as we'll as the carpet

Now, to speak of the orange here,
will say it is best in my Judgment
only to trim tree to get out the in
sect or dead limbs, as it will take of
the main bearing part. The lowest
limbs generally bear the best. They
will even bear when lying on the
ground. In trimming you deprive
the trunk of the shade, and l do not
think the hot sun is best upon the
trunks. The branches also protect
the body from the cold and keep it
healthy, for you must remember you
are dealing with an evergreen. 1t
is not an apple or pear, but tree
whose leaves are feeder to the tree,
as 1t consumes its own leaves until
they are reduced to a very small
size. No leaves fall unless blasted or
not healthy. Some parties have
written up the orange so completely
that | will not try to go too far for
fear of making bad bluEder. But
l would like to ask some one of those
who seem to be so well informed, if
the sap OF an evergreen descends to
the roots in the tall? 1t so, why do
not the leaves fall, as In the case of
the oak and hickory? Does not the
sap go to the center Of the tree? If it
ooes then we should not trim, for the
first leaves that come up after the
seed is planted, are apt to make the
lower limbs and leaves. AS the tree
puts out fresh growth from the old
plant the leaves are large. In three
years or less they will be reduced in
size. AS l have been noticing them
and planting them for thirty.fve
years, | find they are very different
from other trees. AS for the fruit T
| have but little to say. Isee a good
many oranges that are rusted. The
rusty orange is the best for shipping:
l have sent some of both kinds to
London, England. But two per cent. |
OF the brown or rusty fruit decayed. |
while a much larger proportion of |
the bright fruit rotted. / am only
able to account for The rusty fruit in |
one way, and | have carefully noted |
the conditions tor many years. When |
we have heavy pine bloom there

The Uses of Cotton.
rom The New Orleans Bulletin.

From The New Orleans Bulletin.
The uses of cotton, like those of
paper, are steadily extending. We
have all heard years ago that paper
IN highly compressed state was be-
ing utilized in the manufacture of all
kinds of articles, which formerly had
been made from metal, wood or other
naturally hard material, until final.
ly railroad car wheels, superior to
those o. iron, stoves, pots, forks,
knives and even houses have been
constructed of paper AS, however,
the demand for paper is very great
for the old legitimate purposes OF
news papers, periodicals and books,
the production is not equal to the de-
mand, and people have cast about TO
lind some other light material which
could be made available instead of pa
per. We now notice that recent
number of the Age of Steel says this
substitute has been found in cotton,
which has tor some time, in the shape
OF celluloid, been employed in the
making of buttons, toilet articles,
cuffs, collars, etc. Recent improve
ments in the manufacture OF celluloid,
it seems have been made, which not
alone render the process of manufac
ture less dangerous, out also much res
duce its cost, and there is now appar>
emily nothing 10 hinder the employ
ment OF cotton in erecting buildings
with cotton brick, cotton ratters,
floors, ceilings and plastering, includ-
ing door and window frames and sash.
When we consider that this materi~
al can be made as fire>proot as stone,
that it is verv light, much more do-
rable than the harvest wood and that
1t can be nodded into highly orna-
mental designs at small cost, it be-
comes evident that cotton must soon
be extensively used in architecture.
Should the South, therefore, a few
years hence, when the levees on all
streams liable to food the country,
have been built up in a substantial
manner, produce double as much cot.
ton as at present, it may still be short
OF the actual demand tor consump-
ton. People will then probably
