Railroads.

Farm and Garden.
The railroads occupy position of
masters in the welfare Of the farmer.
They can raise rates Of transportation
in one section and kill its industries,
and lower them elsewhere and make
Others wealthy. Rochester, few
years ago, was a great milling center,
and large fortunes were invested in
mills. Changesin freightbyrai made
it possible to get barrel of -four as
cheaply from st. Paul, MINI. to New
York as from Rochester, N. Y. Flour
was carried from st. Paul to Roches-
ter at less rates than wheat. Flour
was sold in Rochester for less than
the cost of wheat, with freight added.
The mills at Rochester We're rendered
valueless, and their owners ruined.
The mills at st. Paul and Mime
apolis, under the freight changes,
were built up, and upon the ruins of
Rochester the milling intererts flour
ished elsewhere. The losses upon
through lines always occur upon the
cutting of rates, and this must be
borne by the increase of local freight
rates, where there is no competition.
The farmer, on such lines, bears the
burden of losses upon roads in which
he has no interest, and pays to make
good the loss by local rate so high
as to be burdensome.
Thus the local rate may be so in
creased that the rate for very short
carriage to competitive point may
be as high or even higher than on a
line of road ten fold longer. These
changes give advantages to certain
sections, which the less-favored must
pay for, and that without any benefit
or redress. A railroad will carry
some articles at a very low freight
while grain will be rated very high
compelling the farmer to pay the
freight on his grain that the roaC
loses in low rates of carriage for some
favored business or shipper. 1t is
said the farmer pays all" and per
haps he does, to large extent, but il
is not Justice.

Sorghum.


Spirit of the Farm.
Just think of It: Before 1853 such
a plant as sorghum was unknown in
the United States. Nor had it been
heard from before then. In that year
some Frenchmen paid a visit to
China, saw and were delighted with
it. They struggled some seed in
their pockets-not being allowed to
bring it in quantity-and planted it
in France. A small package was
brought to the United States and
planted as a curiosity. Now the cul-
tivation is second only to maize. 1t
grows on all kinds of land and in
every climate of our greatly varied
country. 1t is essentially the poor
mans friend. 1t furnishes food of a
delicious character in the howell of the
poor colored man, and is poured from
theglittering cut-glass Of the wealthy.
1t is good for man and beast. 1t will
ultimately furnish more sugar than
the sugar cane of the South. The
latter grows only in the warmest Sec
lions of the Union, while sorghum
grows everywhere. 1t flourishes
equally on the icy mountains of
Washington Territory, the sand hills
of Georgia, and the rich, alluvial bot
toms of Louisiana. 1t makes hay
for stock of a character unequaled,
and is destined in the near future to
furnish a substitute for hay in the
South where grass parches to a crisp.
Maize has been cultivated from the
prehistoric times by the Indians OF
America, but was unknown to civil.

this country. So sorghum was cult.

Dried Fruit.

Knoxville Chronicle.
Large quantities of dried fruit have
begun to arrive in market, and the
dealers are hustling around lively.
We are reliably informed that more
fruit has been saved in East Tennes-
see than ever before, and that it is
generally in prime condition, much
of it having been dried on the i'm
proved evaporators. A well-known
commission man bought over 1900
worth of berries, peaches and apples
from small country buyer in Haw-
kins the other day. The pricesgiven
are about as follows, subject to change
at any time: Blackberries, cents
apples, 2 cents; peaches 4 to cents.

Planting Strawberries in the Fall.
Spirit of the Farm.

Spirit of the Farm.
1t is scarcely any longer a debata-
BILE question in this latitude that fall
is the best time for planting straw
berries. 1t only requires the ground
to be in proper condition in order to
have a good bed secured. The soil
should be rich and moist, but not wet.
1t matters not whether it be sand,
clay or muck, so that it furnishes an
chorage for the plant and contains an
abundance of the elements necessary
to its growth. 1t should be stirred
to good depth, but little or no poor
subsoil should be brought to the sur
face. 1t is well to have it prepared
some little time in advance, so that
it may have time to settle somewhat
before the plants are set. The surface
should be rich. This is especially
important with fall-set plants, as
their roots have comparatively little
time to go far in the search of food.
There is another advantage in en-
couraging surface roots: They are
not drawn out or broken by the ex.
pansion of water in the soil when il
changes to ice, but rise and fall with
the ground. Roots that run deep are
apt to be broken or drawn out, as red
clover, while white clover roots re.
main uninjured, although frozen and
thawed a dozen times. If the sol
has been enriched for a previous CROP
so much the better; but if not, well
decomposed stable manure may be-
worked into the surface, either before
or after setting the plants.

Origin of a Western Phrase.

In 1889, when visitors to Chicago
came by stage coach, a famous old
pioneer named John OldershaW made
the journey from Buffalo to the West.
He was a hard drinker, but in those
days whisky didn't hurt a man.
When leaving Buffalo John made a
bargain with the driver that he was
to be walked up every hour when
asleep in order to take his medicine
within accustomed regularity. The
scheme worked well until they came
with a days drive of Chicago.
There were only two other passen-
gers in the coach and they had evil
IDENTIFY discovered what was going on.
AS the journey was near its end all
hands agreed to ride all night in
order to reach Chicago in the morn
ing. With many injunctions to the
driver old John went to sleep. When
he had begun to snore one of the
other passengers crowded him out of
his place and sat down in his corner,
exchanged his own hat for Johns
coonskin, and pretended to be asleep.
All night long the deception was kept
up, the driver stopping every hour,
nudging the man that he supposed
was Oldershaw and giving him his
bitters. When Chicago was reached
John found himself in his own cor
ner, but he knew that he had had no
whisky, and he became so furious
that they had to put him under guard.
He sued the stage company for DAM
ages, and after ten years of litigation
got $4,000. That is what came OF
"waking up the wrong passenger"

Some Advice.

Bob Burdette, in Brooklyn Eagle.
Give the poor man chance? My
son, the poor man takes about all the
chances without waiting to have one
given him. If you give him any
more chances than he already takes,
he will soon own everything and run
the Ohio man out of the country.
The fact is, we must curtail the poor
mans chances little. We must sit
down on him, and hold him down,
and give the rich man q chance. The
poor man has had things his own
way too long. He has crowded the
rich man out. But for the poor man,
this old world would have cast an
Choir six thousand years ago, and be
covered with moss and barnacles to-
day like a U. S. man-of-war, George
Peabody was boy in a grocery; Ed
gar Allen Poe was the son of strolling
players John Adams was the son of
farmer; Benjamin Franklin, the
printer, was the son of a tallow chan
dler; Clifford, the first editor of the
Quarterly Review, was a common
sailor; Ben johnson was bricklayer;
the father Of Shakespeare couldn't
spell and couldn't write his own
name-neither can you, even his il
lustrious son couldn't spell it twice
alike; Robert Burns was child of
poverty, the eldest of seven children,
the family of a poor bankrupt; John
Milton was the son of a schrivener {;
Andrew Jackson was the son of a poor
Irishman Andrew Johnson was a
tailor; Garfield was a boy of all work,
too poor even to have trade; Grant
was a tanner Lincoln a keel boat
man and common farm hand, and
the Prince of Wales is the son of a
Queen. 1t is his misfortune, not his
fault; he couldn't help it, and he
can't help it now. But you see, my
dear boy, that's all there is of him !;
he's Just a Prince of Wales, and he's
only that because he can't help it.
Be thankful, myson, thatyOuweren't
born Prince; beglad that you didn't
strike twelve the first time. If there
is a patch Oh your knee and your ell
bows are glossy, there is some hope
for. you, but never again let me hear
you say the poor man has no chance.
True, poor lawyer, poor doctor,
poor printer, a poor workman OF
any kind has no chance; he deserves
to have none, but the poor mOnopO-
Lies about all the chances there are.
Put Laban and Jacob in business to-
gether anywhere, and in about four
teen years Jacob will not only own
about fOur-fifth of the cattle, but he
will have married about One-half of
his partners family. Go to, my son,
let us give the rich man chance.

An Unpublished Story of Lincoln.

1t was during the fiercest stages of the
great war of the Rebellion that several of
our ministers called on President Lin
coin on an important errand. Mr.. Lin
coin received them with great courtesy,
and gave them good audience. When
the brethren arose to leave the room, one
of them, probably DIR. L. Davis, said,
"Mr. Lincoln, you have been very kind
and painstaking, to answer our questions.
We have yet one which our people are
deeply interested in and which we wish
to put before you for an answer. What
do you here at Washington intend to do
with slavery?" That interrogation
opened momentous question.
Mr.. Lincoln was ready for the emer-
gency. Rising to his feet and straighten-
ing up his bony form, he said, "Gentle-
men, Twill tell you how it is. The treat
ment proposed by the officials here for
the slavery question Is about like what
would be proposed by set of doctors
for wen on person. There is man
with large, ugly wen on his person.
He consults a number of physicians
about it. They all agree as to two things.
They all agree that it is wen; that is
the first thing. They all agree that it
must come of. About the method of re,
moving it they do not agree. One says
the best way is to put the knife into il
and with the knife remove it. One adj
vises powerful external applications with
view to its removal. Another thinks
the better way is to put cord tightly
around it and every day draw 1t tighter,
until at last q severance will of itself
occur. That, gentlemen, is lust the way
it is here with us. We are all agreed
that slavery is wen on the Government.
We are all agreed that it must come off.
We are not yet agreed about how to do
it." With this the clergymen shook
heartily the hand of the good President
and went away.-ReligiOus Telescope.

Canturing Makers.

The monkeys are frequently captured
in nooses and traps built in the shape Of
houses. The only entrance is trap
door in the roof, which communicates
with q trigger set upon the ground.
Food is spread about inside, the mon
keys enter, and, skirmishing around,
disturb the trigger, and the trap shuts
them in. The third method for CATCH
ing them is q most ludicrous one. An
old, hard cocoanut is taken, and very
small hole made in the shell. Furnished
with this and pocketful Of boiled rice,
the sportsman sallies into the forest,
and stops beneath tree tenanted by
monkeys. Within full sight of these in
quisitive spectators he first eats little
rice ano then puts quantity into the
cocoanut with all the ostentation posi-
BILE. The nut is then laid upon the
ground, and the hunter retires to q con-
venient ambush. The reader may be
sure that no sooner is the man out Of
sight than the monkeys race helter-skel-
ter for the cocoanut. The first arrival
peeps into it, and, seeing the plentiful
store Of rice inside, squeezes his hand
in through the tiny hole, and clutches
handful. Now, SO paramount is greed
over every other feeling connected with
monkey nature, that nothing viii induce
the creature to relinquish his hold.
With his hand thus clasped he cannot
possibly extract it, but the thought that
If he leaves go one of his brethren will
obtain the feast is overpowering. The
sportsman soon appears upon the scene;
the unincumbered monkeys fly In all di-
rections, but the unfortunate brute, who
still will not let the rice 90, is thereby
handicapped beyond hope with cocoa
nut as large as himself state Of affairs
quite fatal to rapid lecomotion, either
terrestrial or arboreal. The sequel Is
that he falls an easy capture to the hunt
er, victim to his own greed. Even
when caught he reads in the actions Of
bis captor design to rob him of his
rice, and he clutches it all the harder;
and the very first thing he does when
the nut is cracked and the hand released
is to cram its contents into bis mouth.
Thoughts of escape come afterward.-

Stories Of Andrew ] Jackson.

When jackson was President, Jimmy
O'Neill, the Irish doorkeeper of the
White House, was a marked character.
He had his foibles, which often offended
the fastidiousness of the Presidents
nephew and Secretary, Maj. Donelson,
who caused his dismissal on an average
of about once week. But on appeal
TO the higher court the verdict was al
ways reversed by the good nature of the
good old General Once, however, Jim
my was guilty of some fragrant
offense, and, being summoned before
the President himself, was thus
addressed: Jimmy, I have borns
with you for years in spite Of all COM
plants but this goes beyond my pow
ers of endurance" "And do you be-
ieve the story?" asked Jimmy. Seer
tainly," answered the General 81 have
just heard it from two Senators"
/" Faith" retorted Jimmy, "h / be>
lieved all that twenty Senators say
about you, it's little I'd think you was
fit to be President. Pshaw, Jimmy"
concluded the General, "clear out, and
go back to your duty, but be more care
full hereafter" Jimmy not only re-
tanned his place to the close of Jackson'G
Presidential term, but accompanied him
back to the Hermitage, and was with
him to the day of his death.
Gen. jackson had very little love or
taste for poetry, his favorite author be-
ing DIR. Isaac Watts, from whose
" Psalms and Hymns" he used to make
his selections for the inscriptions in the
ladies' albums which were once so fash
ionable, when they were sent him with
. request for his autograph.
It is said that while President he never
drank any ardent spirits. This was cor
by his negro servant, who said
that "Massa jackson no drink rum, but

PRoF. WHITNEY does not lay any
weight on the removal of forests as a
cause of the dryness and desolation of
former fertile and populous regions of
the earth. He admits that the greater
proportion of land to water In late geo
logical areas may have little to do with
the decreased rainfall; but he attrib-
utes the diminished precipitation mainly
to lowering of the intensity of solar
radiation during geological time.
