DR.. S. w. Clayton, aud the discussion
of the programme was commenced.
Mr.. Williams did not think that
wheat ought to be narrowed in the

and if it did any good he could not per.
ceive it. He knew of man having
narrowed his wheat with some success.
Mr.. Joab Mauldin narrowed his wheat
last year about the frs! of April, hui the
land was rather wet and the ground
rough. Otherwise ii would have been
beneficial. Those WHO had tried the cx.

A Good Illustration.

A Marietta, Georgia, correspondent
writes to the Atlanta Constitution the
following: Cobb Superior Court met
here last Monday, Judge Joel Branham,
of Rome, presiding. Judge Brown was
disqualified fiom presiding. Judge
Branham has won many golden opinions
from our people by the impartial charg-
cs to the juries and his just but lenient
sentences.
The charge of Judge Branham to the
grand jury was strikingly forcible, and
particularly so in expounding the duties
Of working the public roads. In regard
to breaking up the practice of carrying
concealed weapons, he gave an illustra-
ton that came under his observation
while a practicing attorney in Rome.
He had clerk in his Office who carried
q derringer pistol in each of his vest
pockets. This he tried to persuade him
not to do, but be vas persistent in
his purpose. A client made remark to
the clerk after he (Branham) had lost
his case, that he made no effort TO do his
duty in the matter. On accosting the
client about 1t he denied making the
statement. The clerk and the client and
Judge Branham all met in the law Office,
when the clerk wanted to know Of the
client if he denied making the aforesaid
remark. The client cmphatically denied
it, when the clerk, who was seated at the
table writing, looked up and simply re.
marked: "You have lied, that's all
The client, sho Was large, muscular
fellow, picked up the tongs and was in
tending to brain the clerk, when the
aforesaid clerk placed his fingers in his
vest pocket and pulled out a derringer
and, without getting UP frJln his seat
rested his hand on the table and ex
claimed: "You put down those tongs 7
The man very prudently put down th'
tongs. When be had left the clerk sale
to Judge Branham "You have always
insisted that should not carry a pistol
as I would have no need of it. Now
suppose that had not had that weapon
that fellow would have killed me will
those tongs." "Not at all probable" re
piled Judge Branham. "Why?" inter
rogated the surprised clerk. Because,
replied Judge Branham, eff you hat
been without a pistol you would no
have called the felloR liar" This wa

weapons.

How to use a Grlndstonc.
a rrindstope is one of the worst L

a grindstone is one of the worst used
implements on the farm, or in the work
shop. Few take the trouble to think
about their work, and consequently, the
great majority of people fail to get the
most and best use from their tools. The
few who do think, will agree with us
when we say, that grindstone is both
badly used and badly chosen. 1t is too
small; too thick it is not evenly and
truly set and ccntered it is not properly
speeded, and is turned either too fast,
and made to throw the water around, or
too SLOW, and 50 fails to do its work well
it is not we'll taken care of, and it is
badly used.
A grindstone, to do good service,
should be ct least three feet in diameter
and two and one.half to three inches in
thickness, having bevcl on each side of
the face for grinding on. It should be
quite free from hard spots of iron pyritcs,
which are injurious to tools, although
these may be taken out with sharp
pointed punch. If it is not centercd
truly, it will work out of shape, ard soon
require trueing up. 1t should run as
fast as possible, as it does work both
better and more quickly. To prevent it
from throwing water, piece of bagging
should be fastened to staple fixed
across the frame on each end but not SO
close as 10 grind it out this will catch
the excess of water and yet keep the
stone wet enough, and clean it. The
stone should be kept in the shade, and
never in water, which softens it anc
makes one side wear faster than the
other. The water box should have {
hole in it, to let out the water and keel
the stone dry when not in use. II
grinding, it should mostly turn from th'
tool, and if used otherwise, great care
should be taken by the one who hold
the tool, not to gougc the stone.-Ameri

Wanted TO Fly.

~ don't care for swimming" said the
young wild. duck; II want 10 fly" 1t
was the first day of leaving the nest, and
the mother bird was very proud of the
hourishing young brood just beginning
life. The nest had been made in the
coziest of corners beside the river, over
hung by rocks, and with wild flowers and
and rnshes bending down upon it. 1t
was SO cool and shady there through the
hot summer days, except when early in
the morning, the suns rays glinted down
between the birch trees on the bank.
The pair had agreed it was time for
the children to take TO water-at least,
for some of them-so while the father
bird remained in the nest with thosewho
were hatched later, the mother turned
out with the older ones.
Two we're already enjoying the water,
but just as the other little duckling was
going TO make plunge, he happened to
look up, and lie caught sight Of a dragon
fly. AS it hovered over him, and then
glanced away, its brilliant, gauzy wings
glittering in the sunlight, it quite turned
his head. And like many another young
creature, he fixed his mind on something
he had not, and forgot all about what be
had.
"Why can't fly like that I? 1 want to
fly" he said again.
"Patience, my Child" replied the wise
mother; "you will fly some day, but you
haye no wings yet.-ouly legs. You must
use your legs in the water as we are do
ing, and that will help you to grow up
properly. If you do your part in the
present, you will be preparing for the
future. You have got to be educated,
you know don't you see7"
But the young duckling did not see,
and he would not listen. He only
tapped his tiny stumps of wings and
stared up at tho dragon fly. If he had
been child, he would have pouted but
as it was, he. did whatever it is that
ducks do when they are sulky, and he
turned his back at his brothers, and pad
died away.
Day after day it was just the same; he
would not take to the water because he
wanted the air. He moped and moped,
and this was all his cry: II want to
fly"
Of course, he could not grow. He
was not using the means for developing
himself, so he could not be duck all
round In longing for the future, he lost
the present. He got smaller instead of
bigger, and would have dwinded down
to nothing, suppose, had not a prowling
fox one night pounced on him-a poor
starved duckling, and q very meagre sup.
per after all
1t is no good, our longing for the
future, unless ws are preparing for it in
the present. Because what we have now
is always the training for what we are to
have by and by. And aI it il no use
wanting to get to heaven unless we are
employing the right means and making
life the training place for eternity.

Prices and Profits.

We cannot possibly see where the
profits in cotton raising can begin to
come in at present prices. At present
prices, or anything like the rate, the cot
ton planters of the South must be raised
out of cotton raising altogether. With
two and half acres to the $50 pound
bale, we see 1S0 pounds per acre. This
will be, possibly, about the average for
the country over.
Let us state the cost of production, so
that.auy business man can see for him
self where cotton production is drifting.
Here is the statement per acre:
One first class ploughman to 20 acres
at sl5 per month, $3.50, or 50 per acre.
Food for one animal at 80 cents per
day, s1lO a year, or $3.50 per acre.
Three good choppings at so cents per
acre, $3.50.
Picking $50 pounds of lint at $3.50 to
hundred pounds of lint, s2.70.
Ginning, bagging aud packing at lOO
per hundred, $1.80.
Transportation on 1870 pounds, at 25
cents per hundred for hundred miles,
with average of 200 miles to market, 90
cents.
Fertiizcr, $50 pounds to acre, and at
s95 per ton delivered, S262.

Uncle TOMS Cabin.

The opera house lsst night was
really crowded. 1t has been many u
day since SO large an audience has
greeted any troupe in Las Vegas. A
large majority, too, seemed to be we'll
satified; yet, when the performance
is viewed critically. it must be ad-
versely criticised. The play itself is
poorly constructed. 1t lacks unity.
The frat act has nothing to do
with what follows; and were it
not that the play appeals to the sym
pathy, the prejudiCes, and the pas
sions of the audience, and especially
did 70 about the time of the war and
just afterwards, it could never had
the run which has characterized it Ca
reer. When 1t come 10 the particular
performance last night, the criticism
must be particular adverse. The
trick donkeys we're in no wise the
equal of dozens of the buros which

day; and some of the acting was
not inferior to what one may see in
the dime museums of eastern cites.
To this statement there were but two
exceptions. Miss Sallie Part ington
was tiptop Topsy. Her acting would
have done no discre lit to any stage.
and did redeem the performance
from being bore. In this she was
ably seconded by the man VIII o was at
one time a converted Quaker and
at another a distant relative by
marriage TO Miss Ophelia. As the
audience were not favored with pro.
grammes, his name cannot be men.

cause, like Topsy, he showed the ele-

songs and dances by the negroes were
very good, being true to life in an
eminent degr,e. This writer has seen

Of some of the negroes, with their
