Mr.. Jones uses none of the fertiliz-
ers containing strong acids on his
farm, having found that they are in
the long run Injurious to the soil, be-
sides they do not last so well as ground
bone, lime or salt or something of this
kind. Again he uses no manure or
other fertilizers in the hill, but broad
casts every thing, using larger guam
titles which have invariably given him
better results. He thinks it will not
pay to raise less than ten or twelve
barrels of corn per acre, which he
says can easily de done on ordinarily
fair land with the proper amount Of
manure and cultivation. [ observed
also that he uses the harrow and not
the plow for the first cultivation of
young corn, which is very gaeat saw
ing of labor and which pulverises the
soil much better than it is possible to
do with the plow The harrow does
not Gas many think) tear up the young
corn, but leaves it in nice condition.
Capt. Jones also has model way
of feeding his cattle having each in
a separate stall with heads secured
through an opening into the feed box,
so that no food is wasted or trampled
under foot, which saves from 25 to so
percent of food. =
Besides well-watered pastures for
horses and cattle, there is also a fish
pond which adds much to the beauty
of the farm as we'll as to the comfort
of the table.
In the neighborhood of Oaks, in this
county, the farmers are not planting
much cotton or tobacco, but are pre-
pairing to raise such other farm pro
| ducts as may be needed for home use.
Clover and fruits of every kind
thrive on these red soils. Farmers are
generally late planting their crops,
owing to the late cool spring.
| We had the pleasure of meeting
Prot. Alex. McIver at his home near
Oaks, where he seems to be enjoying
farm life splendidly. He could not
well have found better community
or pleasanter place to live than here.

The patriotic wall of Senator Frye in
the Senate, and Little Mr.. Dingley, in
the House, to accord no privileges not
accorded the United States, fairly un-
earths the ghost Of Chinese ostracism.
THE COMMERCIAL PRIVILEGES.
through Senator Frye and Little Mr..
Dingley know nothing but fisheries
and merchant marine, would be vio-
lently affected. The United States
imports over fifty millions into the
Dominion of Canada every year. The
exports are barely fifty percent, though
ninety percent of the Canadian lum-
Der trade finds Its harvest in the Unit
ed States. There is a little more to
this question than the rights of some
law breaking sailor or the protection
of a half breed pirate. Canada is a
good country..to have for neighbor.
It is barely possible she will always re-
main next door. The fisheries, on
which she realizes more than the Unit
ed States did on sugar, certainly is an
industry she has right to protect.

resumed discussion Of the Interstate
Commerce Bill. 1t gave abundant
opportunity for the favorite old past
time of brotherly tongue lashing. SEN
ator Ransom submitted a favorable
report on the bill extending the power
of U. S.. Courts to jurisdiction over
private land claims. Senator Hoar
presented petition from the Repub-
lican central committee, of Ohio, ask
ing that the charges against Senator
Payne be investigated. Senator Ran
som struck home again. He sought
half of million to continue the inn
provement of the Potomac Flats. He
is determined the work shall not be
spoiled.

passed number of bills for the bene-
fit of the District of Columbia, among
which was the bill for free bridge at
West Washington. A resolution was
introduced to call in $51 900, 900 of
per cents. Mr.. Bland presented his
bill to issue certificates for gold and
silver in sums of not less than $40.
The Army appropriation bill was pass
ed. All contests tor California seats
were settled in favor of sitting mem

Hon. George ". Strong.
From the Wilson Adpn7,ce.

The Aduance is glad to add its en-
dorsement to that of the many friends
of the Hon. Geo. V. Strong, who are
urging his nomination tor place on
the Supreme Court bench.
The people of this section have
known Judge Strong long and favora-
opinion among his brethren of the bar
as to his fitness to discharge the duties
OF judge of the Supreme Court. 1t
is everywhere conceded that in legal
learning and in power of intensity OF
reflection Judge Strong is unsurpassed
by any lawyer of the State.
A long practice, extending, we be
ieve over period of about thirty
years, has given him opportunity to
investigate many legal questions, and
his closely studious:: habits, maintained
continuously through this period, have
given him a knowledge of the law
which marks him as lawyer pre-em-
inently qualified to adorn the highest
judicial tribunal of the State.
