Those lords of creation who doiS out
money to their wives for the bare necessa-
rics of living as they are absolutely requir-
ed may see their meaness reflected in this
little story told by member of the New
York woman's club, Sorosis, during a resent
debate over the family money question:
'One day was shopping in our village
store. A nervous, hesitant little woman,
who was buying few things with her hus-
band at her elbow, ready to pay for them,
so that she, might even touch his money
turned shyly to her lege lord and said:
There's one thing l must have that 1

it. Forgot it? Umphr growlcd the

BILL NYE ON BUTTER AND BUTTER
MAKING'-Butter is the nature fruit of q
full blown cow. 1t is the greatest effort of
her life. The COW tolls cot, neither docs

Butter comes from the COW in liqu; d
state: 1t is quite trick to win her conf
dence SO that she will yield it up to a total
stranger. l once sought to wo the lacteal
fluid from tho milk retort of large speck-
led cow to whom I was comparative stran-
ger. She wasn't one of those blooded COWS
that looked as though they had been cut out
of sheet Of paper with pair of scissors !.
She was q low cow with coarse instincts,
born in obscurity.
Her brow was low, but she wore her tail
high, aud she was haughty-oh, so hau gh-
ty! The young man who had hitherto
acquired the milk from this COW desired
one evening to hie him away to neigh

who was poor speller).
He wanted me to milk his large speck-
led, plebiaa cow, and I said I would. The
movement was certainly ill-advised. I un-
dertook to do as 1 agreed, but failed. From
the moment entered her stall and made
a commonplace remark to her, knew our
acquaintance would not lead to warm
attac hment.
Somehow, l felt constrained and uneasy
in her society from the moment we met uu-
til loving friends pulled me out through
the stable window and brought me back to
consciousness. shall never undertake to
milk strange COW again until the sign is
right. So far the sign has not been right.

THE NEW RAILROAD LINE.

In conversation with Mr.. Samuel
ROrex, large farmer on Little
River, he said "the shortest, best
and cheapest line of railroad to ac-
commodate the large timber and
mining company on the line of
Blount and Sewer counties, would
be from Maryville, up Little River,
striking the river above Col. Davis
1t will be five miles shorter than
to meander the river from Rock
ford; besides, Rockford would get
all the benefit of the line of road"
If we were building the road, we
would adopt that line, for the bene-
fit of the road, for the reason that
better business points could be had
on that line of road than if the
line should leave at Upton, as the
greater distance from Knoxville
and the Holston River, the larger
the local trade to the road and the
less its effects upon the retail trade
of Knoxville.

ALL IN A NAME.

There is a false pride about party
names. There are hundreds of
men acting with the Democratic
party who have 10 sympathy what.
ever for or with the principles OF
that party. They acknowledge that
if the Democracy could carry out
their principles on the tariff it
would break down the great manu-
featuring interests of the country,
destroy our large home market and
send thousands of men out on the
road as tramps. Yet these men,
while they advocate a protective
tariff, stand upon free trade plat
form and halo for men who spit
upon the principles they advocate.
Why do they not at once step out
of party which has no sympathy
with their principles? Simply be-
cause of the little prejudice they
have against the name. Although
the Republican party stands on the
old Wing platform, and they fol-
lowed Daniel Webster and Henry
Clay, yet they can not stand the
look of the Democrats who were
opposed to the old Wing doctrine.

There is but little doubt as to the
means used in carrying the election
just passed. The corrupt practices
of the politicians of this day, back.
ed up by the whisky traffic, is such
a stencil in the nostrils of good men
that it is almost sin for them to
vote for the ticket nominated, es.
pecially in the cities. There are
not SO many immoralities practiced
in the country districts, as there
are fewer men to buy. The gains
in Memphis and other localities in
Middle and West Tennessee look
like some kind Of rascality was
practiced. Memphis is a republic
can city when honesty is the line
Of conduct. But in this election,
representing the vote of at least
10000 population, was changed to
the democrats, from the republic
cans, whose majority is about 5000
votes. We.see from correspondents
that large per cent. of the negroes
voted the democratic ticket. These
men have no desire to vote the
democratic ticket, and if they do
there must be some extra induce
mentS offered them.

WHEAT RAISING

The time for sowing wheat will
soon be here. In wheat planting,
drill so the grain will be covered
three inches deep and where it can
be done drill east and west, as the
freezing and thawing of the ground
will not effect the wheat so much
as when the drill puts the grain in
north and south. Experience in
this direction will prove to be valu.
able. The amount of wheat drilled
will depend on the quality of soil
and the time Of sowing-early or
late-five pecks for early sowing,
and six pecks for late sowing.
The best time to SOW wheat in
Tennessee is from the 18th of Sep.
TENDER to the first of October.
Good crops may be raised later
than this, but there is great risk
to run in losing your seed,
time and labor. To some extent
the wheat becomes its own pro-
tector, as it acts as a mulch for
protection against freezing and
thawing. The larger the top is, the
greater the shade and protection to
the ground, the less liability to
spew and lift the roots out of the
ground. Besides, early sowing in.
sures longer and healthier roots,
which gives an additional security.
In cOnversing with farmers, their
objection to early sowing is the
ravages Of the fly. The experience
of all who try early sowing will be
that there is more danger from
winter freezing in this latitude
than from the fly.

The cost of whisky drinking to a
certain candidate in this State was
the defeat for an Office worth $1,000
per year, and the term of Office was
eight years. The candidate, when
not under the influence of liquor,
was a most excellent officer. So
great was his popularity, outside Of
the use of whisky, that no man in
his district could have defeated
him. In his defeat he lost an Office
worth $4,000. 1t pays to let liquor
drinking alone, as it is Improbable
to every one except the one who
sells it, and often he is ruined by it.

WEEDS.

How to get rid of weeds, Is a
question of some Importance to
farmers. There are several ways
to get rid of them, or to make them
useful as fertilizer. Weeds, when
left to ripen and die on the ground
are worthless: indeed, they go far
toward the exhaustion of the soil.
But if plowed under while green
or cut with a reaper, they can be
made to act as fertilizers. A little
energy and forethought can make
them the friend of the farmer, in.
stead Of an enemy. Now is a good
time to consider the weed question,
before the seed ripens.

The platforms of political parties

votes. If Bob Taylor should speak
his mind in regard to the one made

repudiate it and spit upon one-half
