POET R Y.
THE SOUTH.

My great-souled woman soon TO rise
And tip-toe up and loose her hair
T1p-toe and take from all the skies
Gods stars and glorious moon TO wear.
, Theibroad magnolia's blooms are white.
Her blooms are large, as if the moon
Had lost her way some lazy night
And lodged there till the afternoon,
Oh, vast white bosoms, breathing love!
White bosoms of my lady dead,
In your white heaven overhead
look, and learn to look above
How soft the moonlight of the Southl
How sweet the South in sweet moonlight
L want to kiss her warm, sweet mouth
AS she is sleeping here tonight.
How still do no not hear a mouse,
see some bursting buds appear,
hear God in His garden; hear
Him trim some flowers for His house
1 hear stars singing. And the mouth
OF my vast river sings and sings,
And pipes on reeds of pleasant things
OF promise, for Gods splendid South.

The season passes away SO rapidly that
seed-time often comes before the farmer has
thought to test the quality of the different
seeds he intends to plant. 1t is we'll to be-
gin this work in season; therefore as soon
as the decision is made as to what crops are
to be grown, if the seed is not already on
hand, it should be at once purchased, and as
soon as purchased it should be tested; to
do this, procure a box or large f1ower-pot,
and plant twenty-five seeds of each variety
in it, and place it in a warm room and keep
the earth moist. When the plants come up
count them and thus ascertain what proper
tion, if any, are good. In this way the
farmer can not only ascertain whether the
seed is worth planting, but he can also as
certain how thick it should be planted; if
twenty-five per cent. fail to grow, he will
plant more than if only five per cent. fail
If more than fifty per cent. fail to grow,
then the seed should be discarded, and a
better bought, if possible. If farmers would
adopt this plan, it would prevent the loss of
a crop by bad seed, and it would also enable
them to decide, when seed does not germi-
nate. whether it is because of bad seed, bad
weather, or bad planting. When our seeds
do not come up at the proper time, we are
very apt to charge it to bad seed, when,
perhaps, the seed was good, and the failure
was caused by bad planting, together with
bad season; but as we do not suspect the
cause, we keep planting the same way, and
suppose we get bad seed every season that
the weather is such as to be unfavorable to
our method of planting, but if we know
that our seed is good, and it fails to grow,
we shall begin to investigate, and perhaps
discover that we plant our seed too deep to
grow in cold, wet season. In wet sea-
son no doubt much seed is lost by too deep
planting, and yet the farmer honestly thinks
it is because of bad seed.
Two neighbors often plant seed from the
same lot, and while one will make almost
every seed grow, the other will meet with
almost an entire failure; should the two
compare notes, they would probably find
that the difference in the soil and the meth.
cd of planting had made the difference in
the result.
When the farmer tests his seed and knows
it to be good, it will take him but few
years to discover his mistakes in planting,
if he makes any, and thus he will be able to
rectify them; but as long as he has no posi-
tive knowledge of the quality of the seeds
he plants, he is so likely to attribute fail
ure to bad seed, that no investigation is
made, and so the same errors are commit
ted year after year.
Seed grown on the farm should be tested
the same as seed that is bought; for, al
though it may be known that it is new,
there is no positive certainty that it is good.

On Thursday last thirteen tramps appeared in Lordsburg and demanded food and lodgings, which naturally enough were re- fused them. They took their revenge by setting fire to Kee- nan's Hall, which is situated in the business centre of the town. But for the prompt discovery in time of this incipient conhagra- tion, much damage might have been done. In a rear room Messrs. Fetterly and App, who ran to the rescue, found a bed lounge and cupboard all ablaze. The fire was quickly extinguished and no fur ther damage done. The house had been recently occupied by Mir Nicholas Hughes, who left it in good condition and with all doors and windows locked. The tramps must have broken in 8 window. Clifton is fortunate. as regards tramps. iu being at the end of 8 reil-caa. -

On Monday evening two Duncan men, named Johnson and Wilson, alias "Arkansaw," went to Carlisle. While there they got ''full'' and began shooting in saloon. The barkeeper tried to restrain them, whereupon "Arkansaw" grabbed him and Johnson shot at him twice. the second shot breaking the barkeeper's elbow. The two desperadoes then went off in differ ent directions. They soon re- turned, and a party of citizens who had been deputized to arrest them, approached "Arkansaw" and commanded him to give himself up. This he stoutly refused to do, drawing his weapons at the same time. In the fracas he was shot and killed. Johnson skipped for parts unknown.

Yesterdays train brought into town the Deputy Sheriff of Dun can, Mir. Calvin, Tn charge of Me Cuan, who is arrested for shooting a man named Taylor. It seems there was an old grudge between Taylor and McCuan and that there had been various outbreaks at previous times, and that it was a patent fact that there would be bloodshed before the score was settled between them. They went into a saloon Sunday night, im- bibed pretty freely and used abus- i've language towards each other; Taylor drew a six-shooter, it is said, but AicCuan shot first. The ball struck Taylor in the abdomen. McCuan was immediately taken in charge.

Two prominent business men of town recently had very pleasant little excursion among the hills. They started for Las Cruces, but owing to an unfortunate combina- ton of circumstances failed to reach the objective point. Losing their way, they were forced to camp without blankets or any other provisions for the night, and in the morning they enjoyed the luxury of a chase after their horses. They report the atmos- phere in high attitudes as bracing in the extreme, at thls time of the year, and warranted to give raging appetite to the most fas- tidious.

The mutiny of the scouts at

The mutiny of the scouts at Duncan, an account of which ap. peared in last weeks issue, might have assumed serious proportions, it is said, had not the citizens in terfered and espoused the side of the troops, as the Indians were ready to attack the soldiers, though the latter outnumbered them by five. Colonel Bradley somehow strengthened the affair out, and the party left next day for Horse Springs, New Mexico. The scouts were Navajos, and the authorities evidently feared to deal with them as the law of mutiny in the field demands, for fear of an uprising of that powerful tribe. It was a serious breach of military discip- line, but perhaps on the whole, was justified by the circumstances With the Apaches and Navajos both at us, we should indeed be in g wretched plight.
