MIR. EDITOR: There seems to me to
bean erroneous idea in the minds of
most farmers of the present day-that of
turning land in the fall of the year with
a view of enriching the soil. Reason
suggests that where there is crop suffi.
ciently rankto be moved aud allowed to
lie broad cast upon the surface of the
earth, that it would be better than to
turn it under and allow the surface to be
exposed to the hot sun and drenching
rains. Now, any person knows that
hard crust is formed upon the surface Of
the earth, after heavy rain and few
hours sunshine, through which the air
caunot penetrate. It thereby keeps
from tho soil those enriching properties
which accompany the air; besides, each
succeeding rain drives the fertility of the
soil deeper into the earth, making it
necessary to pillow in the spring of the
year, to depth that is ruinous to the
soil by bringing up too much clay. But
says one, "we can plow deep and not
bring the clay to the surface That is
all true. But you can't bring up the
fertilizing properties without clay, after
the surface has been exposed all winter.
The Great Creator of the earth has
placed within it and the surrounding
atmosphere, al the properties that are
essential to the growth Of vegetation, and
if the surface becomes impenetrable to
those properties that are in the atmos-
phere, it is vain to expect heavy yield.
Hence, the necessity for having the sur
face shaded during the fall and winter
months. Again, it is better to turn stub.
BILE very shallow in the spring of the
year followed by long subsoil, thereby
leaving the clay in its proper place.
Land thus turned will retain moisture
much longer than land turned in the
fall.
In conclusion, I ask those men who
are in favor of turning land in the fall
to give my suggestions trial on small
plat, at least. s. w. 3.

excellent speech, urging upon the white
people of the State the Importance of
active unity in politics. He was facetious
in his remarks about the condition of
the Republican party, and urged the
people by the traditions of our past, the
necessities of our present, and our hope
for the future welfare of the State to
maintain our party supremacy in this
State, and not TO 30 lulled into apathy or
indifference. The speaker paid high
compliment to Anderson's Democracy,
and throughout his eloquent speech was
frequently app:auded.
Gen. M. L. Bonham, jr., of Abbeville,
the nominee for Adjutant and Inspector
General, was next introduced, and in q
short, graceful end eloquent address,
urged upon our people the necessity of
voting on next Tuesday. He spoke of
the importance oi the militia, and hoped
to be able, without heavy taxation upon
the people, to put it upon footing which
would command the respect of the peo.
pie of the State, and make it an efficient
organization. He was pointed and clear
in his remarks, in which he illustrated
his points in pleasant manner, by
which he delighted his audience, and left
them regretting that the lateness of the
hour had induced him to close his re-
marks SO soon. Gen. Bonham is fine
speaker, and made most pleasant i'm
preston on oul people.
The meeting was then dismissed BY the
County Chairman, who expressed the
hope that although our people were not
expected or required to give much time
TO the canvass, that on next Tuesday
every Democrat in the County would
take time enough to 60 to the polls and
vote.

plicable-a veritable rooster laying eggs.
This sounds very queer, but Mr.. Turner and
his good lady says it is fact, or else there
is some unforeseen juggIery that they can
not understand. The rooster goes on the
nest every day, and after the functions of
the hen have been performed, he comes of,
utters derisive cacGle 20 the rest of the
fowls and goes on about his business as
though nothing had happened. This pecul-
lar fowl has been watched closely, and
he has been seen 70 go on the nest daily,
came off cackling and there was the egg.
No hen was ever seen about the nest, and
the rooster was monarch Of that bailiwick
or nest. This fowl has aroused the adj
miration of our soul, and is an exemplar
worthy of the emulation of the husband
man. He has seen the tolls and struggles OF
the overworked and greatly oppressed hens
and has come to their rescue and is helping
them to supply the demand now seriously
felt in commercial circles-and at the
boarding houses. He cares nothing for
protection tariff, tariff for revenue only,
or free trade; his only desire is to meet the
demands for home consumption and TO see
that the Christmas nog is not wanting.
What the country needs most is a few more
laying roosterS.

amusement. The weather was exceed

day being bright and warm. Kapiolani
Park was the center OF attraction. The

and on the whole the racing gave gen

Union picnic at Punahou was largely
attended, and a most enjoyable time was
spent by young and old A great many
people, however, went into the country
and gratifed themselves in social
groups according TO their own peculiar
bent. The native Hawaiians appeared
to enjoy the day thoroughly. Groups of
native females rode around decorated
with leis, wearing the gaily-colored pau,
producing pleasing and picturesque APP
Pearance. The Government and Con-
sular flags were displayed during the
day, and the shipping in harbor was
covered with bunting.
