NEED OF VARIETY.

But the great preponderance given

cious and Improbable. In many
extensive districts the planters per.

BILE acre, as if it were the only crop
the land would produce. They buy
-four, corn, and meat from the north
in incredible quantities. When there
is a good crop they receive much
money for their cotton, bat must pay
it all out for articles which could be
grown on their own farms. Many OF
the planters confess their conviction
of the improvidence of this method,
but persist in the practice, neverthe
less. 10 various parts of the south
there are vast tracts of as fine corn

COTTON A WONDERFUL
PLANT.

Since have studied the charr cter
of all the great southern agricultural
staples, and the special relations OF
each of them to the lite and civlliza-
sion OF the people, the prominence
always given to cotton does Rot seem
strange or uDsccounlable. Il is a
wonderful aud peculiar plant in its
adaptation to the varieties of soil and
general environment which il finds
IN different parts of the country in
when it is grown, and also ia its re-
lation to some features 10 the charsc
ter of the people who are engaged in
it's culture 1t will grow on almost
any soil and in almost any possible
situation. in the latitude in which it
belongs. Where the soil is generous
the quantity of the fibre which il pro-
duced elbows that tie plant has very
great power OF assimilation and ap-
preparation for whatever elements OF
nutrition are contained in its food
supply. On the other hand, if the
soil is excessively poor and sterile,
cotton will still grow. 1t now wastes
no strength or food on stem or leaf,
but puts all its material and force
into flower and seed. II ia the fact
that cotton is a seed fibre that makes
it go valuable to this country. II it

is the case with fax or hemp, much
OF the land of the cotton region, and
much of the cultivation employed
upon it, would be entirely inade qaate
to the production of the fibre in pay
ing quantities. But nature cares
more for seed, of course, than for
anything else, and in making the
seed of the cotton plant she makes
the fibre which is of so great value;
and in soil almost utterly barren, an0
with scarcely any cultivation, there

Bad Handwriting.

There are here and there human
beings who are by nature incapable
of writing a good hand, just as there
are others who cannot draw a
straight line or true circle, or even
recognize one. But the ugly manu-
script Of the clumsy-fsted struggler
after form is usually very clear.
Haste. uneasiness, excessive work,
nervuos preoccupation-these are
the chief causes of obscure hand
writing with most of US. But when
a mans manuscript has once made
for itself. fixed character of its
own, neither printers nor expert
copyists would like it to come
round to tame simplicity and cor
rectness. 1t would be, in another
way, the case of the lover with a
squint. who ruined his suit by
going to the oculist and getting his
eyes put straight. The lady could
no longer meet his eyes in the old,
affectiOnate way, and she dismissed
him. Still, there are faults Of hand
writing which are ineXcusable in
themselves, and which neither COM
position nor copyist can possibly ike
to see. One of the worst Of these is
lax practice in putting the strokes
to such letters as m 70. There is no
harm in cutting down certain Syila-
