Terracing.

The following is an extract from the
proceedings of the last meeting of the
Greenville Farmers Club, which will
doubtless prove interesting to our farm
ers:
Prof Harris asked the question, Had
the terraces made this season held during
the recent rains? Also, had the old
terraces held together?
Mr.. G. T. Willis said that the new
terraces of Mr.. j. G. G. Turner had
broken over, but that the land was not
bedded. Ifthe land had been bedded he
thought it would not have washed the
land so bad.
Mr.. McBee stated that his new ter
races lad broken over, but that the old
terraces we're sound and firm.
In conversation with Capt. McKen.
zie, the Captain had stated to Mr..
McBee that Capt. McKenzie's old ter.
races were all right, and the land was
not washed away.
The president stated his new terraces
had broken over and the land vas badly
washed. However, he was not discour.
aged, and believed terracing q good
thing; that after grass grew on them the
sod would hold the terrace together.
Mr.. X. Furman stated that terraces
ought to be made in stubble land and
strip of stubble left the first year above
the ridge, so as to prevent the sand from
drifting and filling up the terrace, also
to prevent the land from wishing; that
if it was necessary to terrace fresh
plowed land some kind of bulwark
ought to be put above the terrace, such
as corn stalks, cotton stalks, etc, which
would prevent sand from drifting.
Can't. Williams stated that the great
error VAS the terraces were too vide
apart. Four feet Of fall was the width
recommended and adopted by most per-
sons. but he had found two feet and six
inches fall none too close fer the ridges;
he plowed out his terraces, aud with
shovel threw the dirt on the upper side,
leaving drain two feet wide below Tue
terrace TO catch all the water that might
ooze through the embankment. Ills
terraces had never broken over, although
now two years old.
Mr.. ]. D. Sullivan said Capt. VIII
lians' terraces were admirably and cor
rectly laid off, which accounts for the
great success he has met with. lie used

"Mamma, Are You a Christian ?"

While holding meetings in an opera
house in Western city, l asked all the
children who believed that they were
Christians, aud who had the evidence OF
it, Il showed them what that evidence
was), to hold up their hands. With
many others, beautiful little girl sitting
by her mother, with smile on her face,
held up her hand. I then asked this
question: think the Holy Spirit led me
to do it-"How many Of your parents are
living to the love of Jesus? Were they
and you to die to-day would you meet
them in Heaven?"
That little girl quietly turned to her
mother, and said, "Shall I hold up my
hand mamma? Are you Christian %
"No, I am not q Christian. Do not
hold up your hand!"
The child burst into tears saying :
"Mamma, do not want to go to Heaven
if you are. not to be there"
The weeping mother said to me in the
inquiry meeting: "My child's words
have broken my heart 0 what shall |
do to be saved? My darling child is on
the way to Heaven, and | am not"
1 told her how she, too, could be made
"alive unto God;" how he who raised
Lazarus to life, and who died on the cross
for us, could save her if she would only
trust Him. We prayed together, and l
could but hopo that she was led to see
how God, for Christ's sake, who suffered
so much for US, could forgive her all her
sins, and make her living, happy Chris
tian, like her beautiful little daughter

ten or twelve feet at a time, giving
ample allowance for undulating soil.
He believed il no machine that would
lay off thirty or forty yards at time
unless that machine had proven by actu-
al test its perfect accuracy. No ter
racing machine ought to be relied upon
at distance beyond ten or twelve yards
in field abounding in numerous rises
and hollows. No matter how small the
undulated surface may be, water would
accumulate with such force as to break

Skinning Cattle by Electricity.

The depreciation in value of hides
from what are known in the trade as
Scores" "snips," and "cuts," says the
San Francisco Chronicle, is large, and
the introduction of improved labor-sav-
ing appliances for taking off animal
skins without injury to either the hide or
the carcass has been so slow and of so
unimportant nature hitherto that the
thousands of persons engaged in the in
dustry on this coast cannot but expe-
rience certain degree of satisfaction
over the introduction in California of an
appliance which would appear to be
what the trade has been waiting for all
along. The invention is called an elec-
trio siding. knife, and is, like nearly all
good inventions, simplicity itself, being
virtually nothing more than a slight
alteration of the Edison incandescent or.
arc light, with the glass bulb removed.
The knife in construction resembles very
much the receiver employed in telephone
Offices, and like it, has double set of
covered or isolated wires attached to the
butt end of the handle, connecting
through the body of the same to the cut
ting, or moro properly, the burning edge
or wire, which is composed of platinum.
The current is entirely under the control
of the manipulation of the knife. After
the hide is opened in the usual way with
an ordinary knife the current is turned
on, and the removal of the hide is begun
by long sweeps of the slider. The prin'
ciplc is that of burning, as the platinum
edge is brought to an intense white heat,
yet the edge is so arranged and protected
by conducting shields that it is i'm
possible to injure either the hide or the
csrcas. In fact, the hide seems to be
torn or pulled off by some unexplained
force of the wonderful agent, electricity.
It has been demonstrated that meat will
hold its color better and longer where
the electric knife is used, this being ac-
counted for by the fact that the pores are
closed by the action of the current,
which seems to have thin, transparent
coating over the entire surface. Another
advantage is that the beef, after leaving
the chill-room, never "sweats," as under
the old system ofremoving hides. Aside
from the increased speed with which the
skin is torn off, there is another advan.
tage in the use of electricity. tits stated
that the value of hides is increased from
one-half to one cent a pound, as the
Aeshy side is left as smooth and even as
the inner side Of a sleeps pelt.

HOW TO DO IT.

The first requisite is to get level lines
laid off on which to build the embank-
mcnts. This requires an instrument.
The subject has gained SO much impor.
lance of late that special instruments for
the purpose have been gotten up on a
much cheaper scale than the regular
Theodolte used by the civil engineers.
Where it is not convenient to procure
one of these, a common "rafter" triangle,
such as arc used for hillside bitches, can
be made TO serve the purpose BY accu-
rately fitting into the crossh,r hypoth-
enuse of the triangle, q common small
spirit.level. The frame must be made
very correct, as to the sides or legs being
exactly equal in length, aud the hypothe-
muse must be truly !lorrizrnta to these 80
as to get true level. With this care
fully step off the lines, marking with hoe.
For getting the fall and distance from
one terrace to the nexl below, fit false
leg by pivot to leg of triangle. Then
place instrument up and down bill across
the line just laid off, with false leg down

Rheumatism.
One author says: "Rhumatism is due
to the presence in the blood of vcgeta-
BILE organism of definite characters"
Another says: "It is due to the pres.
ence of a poison in the blood which is of
the nature of miasm."
The disease having its origin in the
blood, it is reasonable to oppose that it
must be cured by remed es directed to
the blood. A successful remedy must
produce certain changes in the compost
tiou of the blood, and wheL this has been
accomplished, all pain, swelling and stiff.

This accounts for the reason why ex.
tcrnal applications fail to produce perma-
nent relief. But we now have the rene.
dy which acts like magic in giving relief
to all forms of rheumatism, rheumatic

and heart. 1t also cures syphilitic and

ers of claims against the property. Two reasons
are given for the objections, as follows: First,
Because the order is irregular and improper,
and makes the receivers the mere agents of the
purchasers. and authorizes an illegal and in
equitable discrimination between bondholders
equally entitled to common security and the
earnings of the road: second, Because the Pro-
posed order is expressly contrary to the term of
the purchase, and the order of the court con-
hrming it is intended and designed to iniure the
