Old Advice Good Yet.

Spirit of the Farm.
In 1910 a friend in New York adj.
vised a Tennessean how to make farm
ing more successful and profitable, and
summed up the whole matter in few
words, saying: eff our friends in Ten
neSseee and the Southwest will sew
their lands with good grasses wherever
practicable; keep and improve more
cattle, sheep, hogs and horses adopt
a rotation and variety of crops and de.
pend more on these resources than on
cotton, / doubt not they would be
essentially gamers by the change of
policy"
Though this advice is more than a
third of century old, it is just as true
and applicable to day as when uttered /;
and we desire to endorse and urge it
upon the attention of our farmers, and
every DAYS experience and observation
will but tend 10 convince us and them
Of the aged counsel.

The Origin of the Potato.

January Century. ..
The potato, originally South Amer.
lean plant, was introduced to Virginia
by Sir John Harvey in 1929, though
it was unknown in some counties of
England a hundred and fifty years later.
In Pennsylvania, potatoes are mention
ed very soon after the advent Of the
Quakers they were not among New
York products in 1895, but in 1875
we were told Of eleven thousand bush.
els grown on one sixteen acre patch in
this province. Potatoes were served,
perhaps as an exotic rarity, at Har-
ward installation dinne|in 1907; but
the plant was only brought into culture
in New England at the arrival of the
Presbyterian immigrats from Ireland in
l7lS. Five bushels were accounted a
large crop of potatoes for Connects
cut, farmer for it was held that if a
man ate them every day, he could not
live beyond seven years.

Many CT the agricultural journals are
sorely troubled to know whether a hen
sits or sets. II some editor of dignity
would set hen on the nest, and the
editors would let her sit, it would be
well for the world. Now a man or
woman either, can set hen, although
they cannot sit a hen; neither can
they sit on her, although the old hen
might sit on them by the hour if they
would allow. A man cannot sit on the
wash bench but he could set the basin
on it, and neither the basin nor the
grammarians would object He could
sit on dogs tail if the dog were vii
ling, or he might set his foot on it..
But if be should set on the aforesaid
tail, or sit his foot there; the gramma-
rans as well as the dog would howl.
And yet, strange as it may seem, the
man might set the tail aside, and then
sit down, and neither be assailed by
the dog or the grammarians.

He was Public Printer, and the
Legislature, being in session at the time
of his death, elected his widow as bis

Some time after the death of her
first husband Mrs. Roulstone married
Col. Moore, member OF the Legislature
from Sumner county, In 1907 they
sold the paper to man named Lyon
who moved it to Carthage where he
lived. Lyon failed to pay anything
so that Col. Moore had to take the
paper and Office back after Lyon had
had it two years.

Grading Up"

Rural Record,
There cannot be too much interest
taken by our Southern farmers in stock
breeding. In the West and North
west the importers Of Norman and
Clydesdale breeds have performed a
great service to their section. Our
farmers need good heavy draft horses,
aud to have them they must import
improved breeds and "grade up" with
the stock they have.
Every township ought to form a
company and purchase frSt-class
Norman or Clydesdale stallion. Aside
from the advantage of grading up
our present stock, it would be a perfect
ly safe and profitable investment.
In five years the value of our pres
ent stock would be advanced at least
100 per cent.
This is the bitterest of ALTO wear

The dimpling smiles around her mouth,
Where Cupid's hosts abide. ''
"What have you done to Mary Ann,
That she is crying so? '
Don't say twas nothing-don't, say;
For, John, that can't be so;

And if you've wounded justice, John,
You know the only cure
Is punishment. So, come, stand up;
TransgressiOn must abide
The pain attendant on the scheme
That makes it justified"
So John steps forth, with sunburnt face,
And hair all in a tumble,
His laughing eyes contrast to
His dropping mouth so humble.
"Now, Mary, you must tell me all

And if he's been unkind or rude,
