THE LUNATIC ASYLUM.
The Cost of Maintaining fnMatcs--A
Word OF T.syO About Newspapers
in that Institution.

WE are indebted for the Sixty Third An
n,,al Report OF the South Carolina Lunatic
Asylum for the fiscal year lSS5-SG. The aver
aye number of patients in that Institution Is
expenses OF The institution for the year Just
closed was SS7 .37l 81, besides extraordinary eX-
penSrS OF S5,SS15l. It. appears that the ncr
capita cost OF maintenance has, during the
last ten years, been steadily reduced from
Sl02.Sb to Sl40.of.
The Superintendent acknowledges the re-
ception of twenty one weekly newspapers free
of cost to the Institution. The daily Register
and the Record rs sent on the same terms,
while the .Nc,rs and CDiUicr charges half price.
Tile Superintendent of the Asylum .aG-
knowlcdgeS that tho institution might ada TO
the pleasure of the inmates at Il very small
cost. lie says: Nothing gives more pleasure
to many of the inmates than the home parcr.
and we can not help rrgfctting that every
county is rot represented in the list" The
list OF free newspapers IS then given. From
that report it does not appear that tho super
iplendent spends ore cent tor any newspaper
except the NcuS AMI Courier. Why for the
NcuS Qni Courier and for no other paper? is il
because the managers of the institution prefer
that PAPER, and like ii better than any other.
If the Superintendent deems newspapers OF
such worth to the inmates, is he doing right
by them TO deny them that which would he
SO much pleasure and which would cost 50 lit
tie?
If the Suprrintcn1cnt is lahoring under
any ha!lucination that the Press and Ban1'ei'
will go there without the necessary two dol
lars. he is simply mistaken. II Tile Supcrll-
tcndcnt of that institution thinks the Press
und Banner would be OF pleasure TO the Abbc-
vile inmates, then it. is for him to say whrth-
er they shall be gratilel. 1t Is no concern OF
ours and we do not intend to send our paper
without the money, Others may do ms lhcy

their interest in education by attending in

WHAT WAS DONE BY If.
Plans for Improved Farming and
for the Most Economical aud
Successful Management.
ESPECIAL To THE APPEAL. /

SARDIs, Mis- October 30-A Farm
er's Institute was held here today Al
which there was fair attendance o.
the farmers of Pamela county. The
occasion had been advertised, and the
fact that Profs. Stephen D Lee, d. l.
Phares, F. A. Gulley and ]. A. Myers,
Of the faculty of the Agricultural and
Mechanical College of the State, 10.
Gated at Starksville, would be prese nj
and take part in the proceedings OF
the institute made the occasion one OF
more than ordinary interest. The fol-
lowing subjects were discussed:
How can we most economically re-
cuperate our worn out lands2
Considering our labor, how can we
best improve the general condition Of
our farming community?
How can we most economically e.
tablish and successfully manage a
creamery and dairy2
Hillside ditching and terracing.
What are the best grasses, both for
hay making and grazing purposes?
What is the cheapest mode of manu-
faGturiDg fertilizers out of our native
products?
What shall we do with our cotton
seed?
The gentlemen named above in
their addresses showed very clearly
they were heart and soul enlisted in
the success and welfare Of the farmer.
What was said by them went right
home TO the minds of those present
and furnithed much food for thou hit.
Good results must follow where
truths are presented so forcibly by an
array of figures as was done by these
professors today. Pamela county has
rome of the best farmers in the State
in it; but these very farmers are
growing poorer yearly by continuous
Gu tivstion of cotton. The idea i'm
pressed upon the farmer was to diver
sify. More grain, more stock, fertilize
more and utilize every pound OF man.
ure produced upon their farms. The
creamery and dairy came in for full
discussion. Msj. Dockery, Of DeSoto
county, was present and took an ear
nest interest in the subject. He,
in connection with several gentlemen
at fernando have just completed a
creamery, and as the Agricultural and
Mechanical College has a successful
creamery in operation, the professors
were thoroughly posted on the bust
ness. We noticed DR.. Oaruthers,
North Sledge and ]. L. McGehee, of
Como, Mr.. e. E. Tucker, OF Bstesville,
and G. @. Banks, of fernando, in at
tendance. A sumptuous dinner was
served in the courthouse, which was
heartily enjoyed by all present. The

ABERDEEN, MISS, October 30.-A
ginhouse on the Ward place, recently
sold to Mr.. Perrin, of Marshall, Mich,
was burned yesterday with four or five
bales of cotton. One OF the hands,
while working in the gin, had some
parlor matches in his pocket, and in
lowering q basket laden with seed
cotton the matches ignited ar d caught
his clothing. In his efforts to extin-
guish tho burning clothing the cotton
in the ginhouse caught, and in a few
minutes the whole building was
wrapped in flames.
The United States Court, after ex-
hsusting the full term, adjourned to-
day. The docket was pretty well
cleared of all busiueTs,

PLUMBING, GAS AND STEAM.
FITTING AND SUPPLIES.
j. w. X. Browne, No. aS4 second
street.

The already large and constantly
increasing demand for thorough and
sanitary plumbing has necessitated
the carrying of large stocks OF
supplies in the latest and most APP
proved styles OF bath tubs, wash
stands, water closets, traps, cooke,
valves, ETC., as we'll as the employ
ment of large force of the most
skilled and reliable workmen, in order
to execute promptly the orders for this
work, and Browne, the Plumber" ia
prepared to fully supply t1e wants OF
the city and surrounding country. II
Is not necessary, or even profitable, ia
go elsewhere for plumbing work, OF
for the lines in which Browne is en-
gaged-that is the furnishing of gas
and steam pipes, cocks, valves, inspi
rators, steam pumps, fittings and en-
CINE trimmings for the country and
city trade-which is carried in large
quantities and all sizes, from six inch
pipe and fittings down to the
smallest sizes, and in order to
fill the orders of the jobbing trade
as well as mills and factories promptly
and in the best manner, Mr.. Browne
has recently added steam power in
his establishment with capacity for
cutting and threading pipes from the
smallest size up to and including
eight inches in diameter, which is
equal to the capacity Of any house in
the West or South.
In the gas fixture line the largest
stock and most varied selection Of
newest designs are to be found here,
and at prices as low as in the Eastern
markets. 1t may be proper to say
here that this house is now the oldest
and most successful in this line in the
city Of Memphis, and it will prove to
the interest OF all to place their orders
with j. W. X. Browne, 254 Second
street.
