Southern VcgeIabIes and Fruit.

The business of transporting fresh
vegetables and fruit from southern 10
calitics to northern markets is new and
still in its infancy. Until recently,
railroad freight men regarded this traf-
tc as insignificant and unworthy of at
tcntion. Anything pcriShable was tax
en- with reluctance and was unSatiSfac-
torily handled. 1t is far different now.
Refrigerator and ventilated freight cars
are seen on every road, and southern
railroads are finding Il large and accep-
table profit in handling pcrishable
freight. The Mobile and Ohio last
year received S;}OO,OOO from the carri-
age of vegetables only, and the gener-
al freight agent of the Savannah, Flor
ida and Western estimates that no.
OOO car loads of watermelons will be
produced this summer along the line of
that road alone. The aggregate ship
ments of the entire south must he
enormous. Producers, buyers and car
riers are all benefited.to great extent.
The southern farmers have found that
there Is profit i'll something else besides
cotton and that land can be utilized
which otherwise would not he. North
ern people ale enabled to enjoy the
productions of the south at Il small eX-
pense, while the carrier is twice re-
warded, first by the freight on the
goods and next by the increased pros
Perity of the towns along its line. The
advantages to small land holders are
conspicuous for it gives them opportu-
nifty to earn comfortable incomes.

Making Slate Pencils.

Broken slate from the quarrles Is put

ing from eight to ten pounds each.
Four of these are placed i'll strong
iron chamber or retort, with change
able nozzle, so as to regulate the size
of the pencil, and subjected to tremen-
dous hydraulic pressure, under which
the composition is pushed through the
nozzle in long cord like slender
snake sliding out of hole, and passes
over sloping table slit at right angles
with the cords to give passage, with a
knife which cuts them into lengths.
They are then laid on boards to dry,
and after a few hours are removed to
sheets of corrugated zine, the cOrruga-
tons serving to prevent the pencils
from warping during the process OF
baking, to which they are next sub
iected in IA kiln, into which superheat-
ed steam is introduced in pipes; the
| temperature being regulated according
to the requirements of the articles eX-
posed to its influence. From the kiln

thrust for second under rapidly-re-

are packed for shipment in wooden
boxes containing one hundred each, OF
10000 pencils in shipping box. Near

Old Spring Proverbs

"When April blows his horn, It's
good for both hay and corn SO runs
the old proverb and as April appears
to be blowing his horn somewhat Wig
orously at the present time, hay and
corn ought to be abundant this year.
BY many the backwardness of the
season is regarded untavorably. but it
is a fact that the most productive
years are usually those III which the
spring is cold. The fear of frost is
much less among fruit growers at the
present time than it would be had
March and April been warm months.
There is "A saying that las many
frostises in May" are to he expected
as there are ''mistises in March, and
as March was both dry and cold, the
proverb indicates that no frost is to
be feared in May this year. There is
no reason to regard the prospect for
any great crop as unfavorable. The
outlook for fruit is especially good,
and "a to crop prospects generally.
the discomfort of this chilly weather
may Ice somewhat alleviated by faith
in the proverb, "A cold April the
barn will FILL"

was stricken from the bill before
its passage. and the language of the
bill was carefully guarded with view

There j. no licensing provision. The
saloons are simply taxed, the assessors
being required Ia make return to the

AYERS CATHARTIC PILLS are the best
of all purgatives for family use. They
are the product of long, laborious, and
successful chemical investigation, and
their extensive use, by physicians in
their practice, and by all civilized ma
tions, proves them the best and most
etiectual purgative Pill that medical
science can devise. Being purely veg
etable no harm can arise from their
use, and being sugar-coated, they are
pleasant to take. In intrinsic value
and curative powers no other Pills
can be compared with them; and every
person, knowing their virtues, will
employ them, when needed. They
keep the system i'll perfect order, and
maintain in healthy action the whole
machinery of life. Mild. searching and
effectual, they are especially adapted
to the needs of the digestive apparatus,
arrangements of which they prevent
and cure, if timely taken. They are
the best and safest phySic to employ
for children and weakened conSttu-
tions, where mild but efiectual
cathartic is required.
