Summer Seeding to Grass.

The most successful seeding to grass may be
done in July and August, after the grain crops
are taken off. The present season has been g
bad one for the seed sown last fall. The hard
winter destroyed the timothy, and the late
spring has intertered greatly with the seeding Of
the clover. As a rule, it may be said that
summer seeding is more successful than fall
and spring seeding, but the ground must be
thoroughly we'll prepared. The whole secret
lies in this preparation. The following plan
has been found excellent: The stubble is we'll
plowed, not more than four inches deep, and
Immediately narrowed in thorough manner.
There are several new implements which do
soil, leveling the surface, and smoothing it, so
as to get the land in the most perfect condition
for the seed. After all this has been done, and
the furrow marks obliteratsd, the seed is sown
and the surface is Immediately rolled. If this
is done in July, nothing more is required. If
it is left later, it will be desirable to sow turnip
seed, at the rate of one pound per acre, with the
grass seed. This affords protection for the
young grass and clover in the fall and winter.
We have found it good plan to leave the tur-
nips on the. ground and not gather them. They
will be killed by the frost, and the leaves falling
down, furnish protection to the grass during
the winter, and the early spring, when so much
damage is usually done by the alternate thaws
and frosts. The grass will usually furnish one
cutting the same season, but it should not be
pastured, as the surface Is not yet firm enough,
nor the plants sufficiently we'll rooted to stand

The Different Varieties of Most Dist ess
Ing Complaint-MehOdso of Cure.
When asthma is Independent of other dis
eases it is called primary. 1t is to this that th,
young are most liable. The attacks are pecul
iarly violent, but the Intervals between then
are long and wholly free from asthmatic symp
toms. 1t is in this form that, when the accu
mulatcd nervous tendency explodes in an at
tack, the general system seems relieved. This
form, too, is most durable.
Secondary asthma has its exciting cause in
bronchitis, arrangement of the stomach or in
heart disease. The last form is really rare, the
difficulty of breathing (dispnea) in many of
the supposed cases being due to the heart alone.
The second form occurs about two hours az.
ter dinner. In many of these latter eases the
patient may be helped by taking no food after
an early dinner.
Bronchial asthma is the most common of al,
and the most intractable. Every cold that
brings on an attack Of bronchitis induces an at
tack OF asthma; and where the bronchitis Is
chronic the disturbing cause is never wholly
absent. This form is characterized by coniops
expectoration. AS chronic bronchitis is :, 1dom
fully relieved, so it is with the asthma. of which
ii is the resulting cause.
A hope of cure depends largely on the age.
A child of ten is likely to outgr0w it; person
OF twenty may one in middle life probably
will find It chronic. 1t is regarded quite favor.
able If the attacks are light or the intervals
long between them, or if, in the intervals. the
breathing is free and natural.
AS to treatment, what helps one may not an
other. To some all remedies are alike power
less.
The main remedies are such as produce nan
sea (depressants), such as render the nervous
system less impressi5Ie (sedatiyes) and stimu-
lants. Of the first are ipecacuanbe, tobacco
and lobelia. They should oGly cause nausea
without vomiting, keeping up the nausea till
the spasm Is relieved.
Other popular remedies are smoking stramo-
mum and nitro paper made by dipping blot
ting paper in saturated solution Of saltpt teri.

FARM AND HOME.
Flowing in Green Corn.

Light sandy land that Is enriched with con-
centrated commercial fertilizers will produce
better crops, If one year out OF every eight or
ten be devoted to growing green crops, to be
plowed under to furnish the soil with vegetable
material. When 1t is decided to do this some
thing is gained, If Immediately after harvesting
the crop in the autumn, winter rye be sown; ;
this will cover the ground before winter sets in,
and thus protect the land,a as soon as spring
opens it will be in condition to make rapid
growth. When it gets well up it should be
plswed under and the land seeded with clover,
this being one of the best crops to enrich the
land with one of the most important materials
for plant growth; both the roots and the tops
Of clover being very rich in nitrogen, and as it
draws all OF this indirectly from the air, what
ever is plowed in is so much gained to the soil.
Some claim that good crop of clover tops and
roots will furnish to the soil as much nitrogen
as can be purchased for 500. II this is really
true, farmers had better raise clover to pillow in
than to pay eighteen cents apound for nitrogen.
The COW pea is said to be good crop to grow
to pillow under, but eS we have had no expert.
ence we cannot speak of it from our own
knowledge. Formerly buckwhear was used
to pillow in green, but this has gone out Of use
as rule. Indian corn furnishes large amount
of material to pillow In, but we have never been
fully satisfied with this crop; for some reason
other crops do not grow as we'll after 1t as after
clover, or in fact, many other crops; the land
indicates that an acid has been formed by the
decomposition of the corn stalks. Millet makes
better green crop than corn. Whatever sum-
mer crop is grown, except clover, should be
followed by winter rye to shade the land and to
furnish crop to pillow under the next spring,

Sam Jones ON DeprayitY.


The evangelist Sam Jones, who is making
such loud noise in the south, has these things
to say about sin and sinners; never go dig
cling about Adam with little shoe" and big
a." Digging around is not part of my work.
| Poor old Adam! Let him rest in common
sense. There Is 5000 years between him and
you. Let him alone. You have got as much
| as you can do to tote your own skillet. As
to whether depravity is total or partial, just
want to say this: Every man of US has got
meanness In us to damn us and what a fellow
wants with more than that is more than
know. tell you the biggest rascals in Waco
amt in jail by good DEAL For declare to
you that but for the best influences on Garth |
might have been incarcerated in Jail or in the
penitentiary. Ireckon there are five hundred
men who can stand up and say amen to that.
The Episcopal church has no funeral sermons,
and think we had better do away with them
too. We had better have none in this town
than to have one preacher who will stand I'D
and preach man to heaven when he Is in hell.
Heaven is the center of gravity of all that is
good, and hell is the center OF gravity of all
that is bad. There are not enough devils in
hell to drag good man down to hell; there
are not enough angels in heaven to lift a bad
man to paradise when he dies. God don't
bind man hand and foot and cast him into
hell God can't keep sinner out of hell; the
devil cannot keep good men out of heaven
When bad man dies he not only goes to hell
drawn thither by the natural forces of spiritual
gravity, not only by the approval of God and
the angels, but he goes to hell with the common
consent of every other man living on TIE face
Of the earth. l don't care what you are; what's
your age; where you live; what's your color
il you are outside of the atonng mercies of
Jesus Christ through faith and good works,
you have got enough meanness in you to damn
you; and its question of time when you will
be damned-and damned forever. When the
devil went at Adam, he fell the first lick he
made when he went for Job, Job stood like
rock until the devil had fired his last gun at
him.

early date, of the best possible school
building we can get for the money.
l think it much better plan than the
oft recurring special elections for
