When my boys got to DE II years old laid
aside every week 81 for each OF them to be
considered Us WAGES. When they wanted
some new clothes took them into town and
let them pick out samples themselves and get
just what they wanted. The money for the
clothes came out of their wage money, and
other expenses We're figured III the same way.
The plan worked well in every way. My
boys got an idea of business that has stuck to
them. Too many boys are just taught to lie
and steal by their fathers. | know men who
tell their boys they must not touch an apple,
or a peach, or any other fruit. Who ever
yet heard of a boy who could keep away from
fruit when he really wanted it and it was
right before him? | wouldn't give cent for
such a boy even if he could be found. \
wise man will have a barrel of fruit opened
and tell the boys to 80 and get what they
want. If they do this there won't be any
sneaking about to get an apple, or any trying
to hide the fact after the apple has been
taken. BE fair and honest with the boys if
yoy want them to make men.-S. Ii. b. in

As a general custom judging cattle at state
and county fairs is one Of tho most disagree
able things to the committee and unsatisfac-
tory to the owners. There is 10 uniform
system established for the selection of Judges,
nor any rules for them to pursue when ap-
pointed. All is left to fancy, whim and
prejudice. Men owning good stock have little
or no confden'a in an ignorant awarding
committee who know nothing of the import
ance of character Of Irogonitors in pediSrocs,
and who know nothing Of points or merits,
Whether the committee be one or three the
owner always crinS,S when he secs com
mittee lro"eolin. to act on the character Of
his stock. Their decision, of course, cannot
chang the real merits OF lis Stock but they
can easily seriously iniure its commercial
character And this is fatal, as the mass of
mankind, being incapable Of judging them
selves, rely on THAT awarding committees de-
eide, Without real experts it would be a
farce to attempt to have scale of points es-
tablIshed And without experts and a scale
awards are games Of chance, dangerous and
deceptive.
With the immense capital invested in
Thoroughbred stock, with our advanced
position in stock breeding, and with the largo
number Of men well posted in points and
pedgrees, it is time something better than in
justice and lack Of all common sense was ex-
9rclSed at our annual shows. The directors
and managers OF agricultural societies repre-
sent all trades professions and industries,
and it is not expected Of them that they could
deliberately mature strict rules and lay down
points by tho aid Of expert knowledge, which
should satisfactorily solve the problem Of
judging justly thoroughbred stock. But we
have thoroughbred stock associations and con-
yentiOns, filed with men learned in ped Grees
and ports and their interests should prompt
thom TO take this matter in hand and prepare
such plain rules and rcgulat o2s, and for di-
rectr9 the selection of awarding committees,
so that justice may he done to this large in
tereSt aud the stock of the country more
thoroughly improved. stock associations
cannot be engaged il a more important work.
AS things are Coldur ted at fairs with fine
stock, it il shame and a dsG"ace-an in
justice, and sometimes, we think, villainy-

1t would seem that people who grow pears
should ~ this time have learned when to
pick Them but such is not the case with
many, Every season, and already this
season we have seen illustrations of the error,
pears are allowed 70 ripen on the tree. When
pears have reached their growth and will
separate from the twig without breaking tho
stem, they are about ready to pick. Picked
thus md allowed to ripen in the house, shut
out from the light when possible, they will be
at their best. If allowed to ripen on tho tree
they are sure to be greatly deficient in flavor
and often rot mt the center, while the ex-
terror is still fair. Watch your pears and
pick them in time.

Looking ut the remains of The Charleston
News and Courier office, one is not surprised
that the printers on the top floor declined TO
continue setting type up there. Every soul
left the building the night of the first great

The earthquake left the edifice in such for
l0m condition that it will undoubtedly be
pronounced unsafe by the government en-
glnerrs and have to be pulled down. The
paper has been uncommonly prosperous of

put III a fine new printing press.

In hot weather the droppings of animals
confined in stables ferment very quickly, and
therefore absorHentS are necessary, not only
to save waste Of fertilizers, but for the COM
fort and health of animals. Something is
wanted, not merely to hold liquid cXcrcmont
from waste, but t. absorb its odors Straw
makes good bedding, but it is next to worth
less for this purpose. Dry earth is the best
absorbent, and it may be got anywhere on
much Travelled roads, and in the country
from fields. When returned to the field, as it
should bc, the dry earth will be found an cx-
cellent fertilizer a very thin covering of
earth is enough, and the manure may be
scraped in heaps so as to leave a smaller sur
face to cover Coal ashes will answer the
same purpose but are not so good as dry

Stock has now full possession of the

of our meadows are picked as close, and trod-
den as hard, even this early in the season, as
the pastures are.
Where tho matter Of fences, and other

turned in upon tho meadow soon after the
