Grass FARMING

There are so many desirable qualities
in the ideal meadow or pasture, SAYS the
forn an Hnie, that no single grass has
been found that will lully satisfy the
progressive farmer. In some of the older
s!'lres in England, as many as two or
three do, en- different varieties of gra ,ses
are in use on one farm. And a propor-
tlonate admiXture of seeds of valuable
grasses is done with great intelli gence.
In the O. der parts of this country it is al.
ready admitted that grasses which ripen
early and late, with others that mature
between, are requisite for pastu age and,
Us more and more experiments are made
IN TINS direction it is found profitable to
have wider variety of grasses for mow-
ing than was formerly thought necessary.
Not only does the quality Of the feed i'm.
prove by variety, but droughts are
oftentimes overcome, and seasons for
cutting made later, earlier, or both, so
that two crops can be harvested where
but one was obtained under the old
method of seeding The 1886 bulletin
OF the Iowa Horticultural College
remarks that farmers of the. sta, @
would do well to experiment with a
greater variety Of grasses, as there are
many valuable kinds not now in cultiva-
tion which could be raised to advantage.
and names the following mixture: Red
clover and orchard grass, 80 pounds of
the latter to 10 of the former; tai, meadow
oat grass and red clover, so pounds and
10 respectively. This admixture is found
to blossom the last OF May, and when
mown early in June the clover stood 20
inches high and the oat grass . feet.
About 20 per cent of HIS hay was red
clover. 10 per cent. tab oat grass, and 10
per cent. xskrru grass which had crept
in. Being on an exceedingly rich piece
of ground, it was estimated to produce
at the rate of l28 tons per acre of dry
hay Besides this. second and third
crops OF 26 and inches were produl ed,
and the grasses show ed in every way the
adaptabilily to each other for meadows.
Tall meadow oat grass and timothy, 10
pounds each, and 30 pounds of orchard
grass, was found to be poor mixture,
on account of the d; erence in the time
OF ripening, and this was true of a
var ETY. mixture which did not seem
TO be adapted to each other. This mis-.
take OF putting su, h grasses as timothy,
which blossoms aud natures late, with
orchard ard other early ripening grasses
was very apparent.

Here, from the Re ord, Of Nelson
County, Ky, is dog story that ought
to pass muster; IAN aged hound, be-
longing to Charles Roby, had for several
months been almost totally blind. He
no longer needed the huntsman's bugle,
but roamed about the yard in de ected
manner. A few days since some children,
while playing with him, placed on his
nose pair of spectacles which contained
powerful lens. He at once began to
romp around as he did in the days of his
puppyhood. They were securely fastened
before his eyes and on the following day,
when the other dogs were called for the
chase, he joined, and was in the lead
when his glasses were pulled off by the
briers. He Immediately carried them to
his master and evinced clearly that he
wanted them replaced. When they are
removed he whines and growls, but
when replaced h. shows his Joy by the
wagging of his tail"

We have published in our columns from
time to time different advertisements In re-
gard to Brights Disease and its curea.
What is this terrible diseased
We have taken the trouble TO make an In
vestigation from the hest sources and we
give the results to our readerS
What astonishes us Is the general indiffer-
pnce given to kidney disorders. The kidneys
do not sound the alarm Of their diseased con-
dition, owing TO the fact that they have very
few nerves, hence few suspect that there is
tion, liberation set in, and then the little
tubes, Of which the kidneys are full, are de-
stroyed and thrown of, and from this fact
are called tube casts,
As soon as this begins TO take place II Is only
equestlon OF how fast decomposition goes on
before the disease results fatally. IL the
proper remedies are taken before final de
composition or waste of thess tubes COM
mences or becomes too far advaucnd, that 10
the only and last chance for relief Il Is at this
point or before that Warmers safe cure
proves so beneficial, and may cure or stop the
wasting away OF the kidneys II IL has not ed-
yanced too far
The most remarkable thing Of all our in.
vestigation is the fact that the patient with
Brights disease has no exclusive symptoms,
but has the symptoms of every common
disease.
First he may possibly feel . dull pain in
his back, generally upon one side, which does
not debar him from his usual business rou.
tine. After q time he may begin TO feel
neuralgia palms, or have a slight attack Of
what he may call rheumatism, or headache,
with high or dark colored urine, with an un-
pleasant sensation in its passage, and after
standing showing an unnatural condition.
Later on, come tired feelings, loss OF ambi.
tion or vigor, or loss of or failing eyesght,
which Is very common with distressed con
diton OF the stomach. Any one Of these
symptoms is liable TO occur.
Tnis no doubt explains why the proprietors
| OF Warmers safe cure are curing so many dis
eases. BY regulating and building up the
kidneys, symptoms OF general ill-health dis
| appear. They Justly accuse the medical pro
tession OF treating the effects and not the
cause. Finally il this disorder is neglected
the patient either dies of appoplexy, pneu
monia, heart disease, blood poisoning. con
sumption, or any other disease that the sys
tenn is most subject to.
There appears to be some one cause for
nearly every other ailment Of the human
system, but up to the present time ne one ha.
been able TO fully account for this terriklC
malady. We understand that the people OF
Germany have become aware Of its fearful
fatality, and have offered 100000 marks

A colored girl rushed into Magistrate
Sheftall's court Yesterday, minus an upper
lip. She said that she had been attacked in
Cooper Shop lane, and her assailant, after
beating her numerically, seized her lip be-
tween her teeth and bit it off. She did not
know the name of her asSailant, but the
neighbors told her it was Mary Kaiser.

biting.
Meyer Levy was in Magistrate Patter-
sons court yesterday to answer warrant
issued at the instance of Chris Murphy.
After an examination Mr.. Levy was
bound over to keep the peace.
The trouble between him and Mr. Murphy
grew out of the failure of Levy to pay a
bill of about S04, which Murphy claims was
due for painting done two years ago. Mr..
Levy swore out a cross warrant in Magis-
trate Russell's court, and the latter was
arrested, and after an examination was

scene Of lively scuffle yesterday between
two women truck dealers and a man.
Annette Willis (colored), has occupied the
stall for the past five years and yesterday
when she went to market with her produce
she found basket of eggs on the stall. She
asked Clara Black, the owner, to move
them. The latter refused, and when
Annette attempted to move them for her
the woman seized her, broke the eggs,
trampled on pile of melons
and stirred up the whole market. Sam
Black, the husband of the woman, dipped
his fingers into the row, and with his wife
was marched to Magistrate Russel's court,
and upon examination was bound over to
await trial in the city court. A warrant
was issued for Annette and she was also

SICKNESS AT ATHENS.
Savannah Students Who Have Been
sick There.


Robert Lamar, son of Postmaster George
Lamar, who was sent home sick from the
university at Athens, is very low with
typhoid fever, having rapidly grown worse
since his return last Sunday, until yester-
dav, when a decrease of 2 in temperature
was maintained throughout Thursday night,
and Yesterday he was able to take some
nouTishmeut.
In an interview yesterday Postmaster
Lamar was quite indignant at the condition
/ in which his son was sent home. He said
that when it was found that typhoid fever
was prevailing at Athens the pupils should
| have been sent home Instead of that
| while the examinations were held on
! June 81 the commencement exercises
We're set for July TO- His son Robert was
down for one of the OratiOns on July 10, and
with others intended to remain over, and
not until the fever was well defined was he
sent home. To remove one when attacked
with typhoid fever, Capt Lamar suys, is
| dangerous experiment and he bames the
management for not sending all the students
of the university home Immediately after
the examinations and mailing diplomas to
those who were entitled to them, There
have been three deaths from typhoid fever
among the students Henry r. jackson, Jr.,
of Atlanta, Mr. Tate, of Augusta, and
MI. Ot' anu 1dpIs l4dlIlut sdlQ ne I1Nl uil-
derst0Od that two or three of the students
OF the Lucy Cobb institute had died. The
first knowledge Capt. Lamar had of his sons
illness was the telegram announcing that
he was on his way home.
Capt. Lamar was asked if he could &C
count for the prevalence of typhoid fever
among the students. He said he could
not. He did not know whether the cause
was the sanitation or the water.
l,, %, - -.
from Savannah are Geo. Mercer, G. A.
Whitehead, Jr, Mayhem Cunningham,
Frank Ihreadcraft, Bud Warren, Robert
Lamar and Messrs Arkwright, Hardee,
West and Thomas. MessrS Mercer,
Whitehead and Cunningham came home
after the examination and went back
during tile past week to be present at the
commencement exercises next Tuesday
Mr.. West, son of J. b. West, has gone
north and is said TO be sick with the fever
Mr. w. w. Osborne, who graduated at
Athens two years ago, says the water in
use at the university is drawn from an arti-
fetal reservoir fed by a running stream of
pure mountain water, and is brought in
pipes for distance of one and One-half
miles TO the building, and that the pipes
lead to the basement, the water being car
ried up stairs by hand. There are no water
closets in the building, the outhouses being
located at some distance from the campus
and there are no vaults, the system Of SAM
tation in that respect being excellent. Mr..
Osborne says the young men who sickened
and died did not room in the campus, but
in private boarding houses in the town.
At this distance and with the meager IN
formation in hand, the origin of the fever
cannot new be safely stated. There is
feeling that Capt Lamar's opinion that the
schools should have been promptly dis
missed at the first sign that malignant
type of fever was about to become preva-
lent, is a correct one.
