1t is important TO the farmer that market
be built up near his farm. The most profit
able products of the farm will not stand
transportation long distances by the meth
DDS now generally in use on our lines of
railroad. The consumer must be near at
hand, as a rule, if the producer is to reach
him at all with his vegetables and dairy
product, and embarrassing is nothing like
as profitable as raising vegetables and keep
ing diaries, provided that the farmer is
within available distance of good mar
ket. Every manufacturing establishment
near the farm makes market for these
perishable articles, vegetable and dairy pro
ducts. 1t is therefore no wonder that SO
few farmers are free traders.-Cdir0 Id

lntercede for the good of the CITY of
Leghon. But the rain and hail con-
hnued until the 10th, and the people
We're in despair. Meanwhile the prep
arahons for the launch, and the deco
ration of the city for grand festival
went on. The King, Queen and little
prince together with the court, were
to come, also the diplomatic corps,
the senators, members of Parliament,
the cabinet, army and navy officers
from Rome. Staging and seats were
prepared for over 00,0O0people. All
this work was done in the rain. I
should also say that the city govern
ment had the principal squares and
streets decorated with designs, upon
which were to be placed flags and
flowers, and lights for the illumina-
ton; but if the rain continued this
could not be carried out. At midnight
of the 10th the rain ceased, the clouds
began to dispense, and thousands of
men turned out to put up the decora-
tons. They worked all night so that
by eight o'clock next morning all was
ready to receive the royal party. The
sun rose in perfectly clear sky, and
no wind, and everybody gave the
credit of the beautiful day to the Virgin,
who had interceded for Leghorn. 1t
was looked on also as a good omen
for the success of the big ship. At
eleven o'clock the royal party arrived,
and after walking their horses through
the streets that had been decorated in
honor of them, they took their place
in the beautiful pavilion that had
been made, for them near the slip.
The ship to be la6nched is about 49,
600 tons measurement, is entirely Of
steel and iron, no wood being used
anywhere, and her armor plates are
to be 81 inches thick. She is to carry

More Solid Sense From the South
New York Herald.

For fifty years or more it was con-
sidered that no Southern planter could
be a gentleman unless his crop con-
sisted either of cotton, tobacco, sugar
or rice. Since the war the limits have
been enlarged a little, SO as to take in
corn and wheat; but the general idea
still seems to be that the proper thing
in farming is to raise a large crop OF
a single article, sell the entire yield
for cash, and with the money buy
whatever the plantation and its ten
ants require. A few weeks ago some
North Carolina farmers gathered to
protest against this sort of thing and
to encourage one another to raise
hav. grain and fodder for their 1--WE
stock, vegetables and fruit for their
own tables, and pay enough attention
to cattle, sheep, swine and poultry to
be able to have a home supply OF
meat. After the necessary time, labor
and money were bestowed upon these
the remainder might be devoted to
making some single crop for market.
The plan is good one, but the South
is not the only section that needs to
put it into practice. At the West
thousands of farmers devote them
selves as exclusively to corn or wheat
as the Southerner does to his faVonte
crop. At the same time they pay
more for hams and bacon than these
articles cost in New York, and they
scarcely ever taste fresh beef; as for
noultry and fresh vegetables, they are
as scarce as in midocean. The farmers
of this class, no matter what they
nlant or how well their crops do, are
generally in debt and largely depend,
emit upon whiskey. Subdivision OF
farming, like subdivision of labor is
nro6tabie in thickly settled countries,
where any surplus may papi6!y be ex-
changed into almost anything else
that Is desired; but it is a great blum
der in sections where farms are large
neiobbors few and a special tnp to
store or market consumes at least
half a day of time.
