Cotton See ! Meal
Atlanta Journal.

"By the way" remarked gen.

morning, "have you ever given the
subject OF cotton seed meal the ten

"Well, rot to any great extent
"Col. George w. Scott, be-
lieve," he continued, "was the first
to appreciate the true value Of cot
ton seed meal About six or seven
years ago the colonel created sur
prise throughout the state by order
ing al one time two thousand tons
of the meal. Up to that time it
had been used almost entirely for
cattle feed.
You see. the colonel he'd experiment.

its value, Some years ago when
he represented the Stone Phosphate
company, OF Charleston, 5. C., he
used to mix up a little fertilizer,
now known over the country as the
"Gossypium PhosPho," in the rear
part of warehouse GU Broad
street. He used 10 send samples
of this stuff all over the state to
have it practically tested and to re-
ceive certificates.
After while he presented some of
his ''gossypium phospho" to the
agricultural department, and they
refused to analyze 1t or list 1t as q
fertilizer, "because it was nothing
but cotton seed meal" The colo
mel persisted, however, got his suf

and last year sold $1,000 tons OF i
at an average price per ton of $50

When he first began the manu-
facture of his fertilizer he ordered
of Nelson 10 Macon 1000 tons O

The New York Mail and Ex-
press, OF which we expected better
things, devotes two column edi,
torial to the yilcst sort of abuse of
the south and after appealing to
the country to remember "the wise
and blessed career of the rapubli.
can party" God save the mark it
proceeds to show that tins is n cam.
paign against the solid south, and
that il Cleveland is re elected, the
country is forever and eternally
doomed. 1t declares that in such
event, the north could never expect
a nyth ing in the future,
and will lose its voice in national
politics; that Texas will be divided
up into four states, which will give
the democrats six more senators
that the democracy will endorse
polygamy and Mormon beathanism
and make Utah state; and that
1t will take in so much of Montana
as can be relied on to give two
more democratic senator's;
that all future vacancies on the SUI
preme court bench will be filed by
southern sympathizers; that the
black race will be again entirely
subjugated to the whites, in slav-
cry; that the national treasury will
be robbed to pay for the losses of
the war, and that Cleveland will
demand denomination for third
time, and will seek election with>
out the vote of a single northern
state, which will be rendered pos
sible by skillful continuance.
When Mr.. Blaine began his
campaign for the presidency he
based his race on the high ground
of craftsmanship : but he soon saw
that he could not shoulder the sins
of the republican party, and that he
must either 60 down with it or
change his p hey, by appealing to
the passions, the preiudices and the
corruption which formed the foun~
dation on which rested the hope Of
republican success.
With defeat staring him in the
face he raised the bloody shirt, and
staked all hope Of election on the
degree of animosity which he could
incite against the south. He sunk
all other issue to the bloody shirt,
and pursued his policy against the
south with undated bitterness
Instead of helping Mr.. Blaine this
injured him, and to lis attitude
against the south can be attributed,
as much asanything else, the direct
cause of his defeat,

was 321l bushels by measure, or 64i
bushels per acre. The largest yield next
to this, was reported from Wisconsin few
years ago, and was 62i bushels per acre
by weight.
Beside grain, Col Goldsborough is a
stockbreeder on an extensive scale. Some
five years ago he went to England and Sc
lected several Oxforddown sheep, for one
of which, a ram, he paid 81 guinels, or
$780, 1t weighed 420 pounds.
The average weight of the flock of ewes,
about 20, is l75 lbs lie sells lambs at
wean;ng time for S25 to Sj0 each, and
yearings from S75 to 500, according to
size and promise. So great is the demand,
that Col. Goldsborough has been compelled
to import ewes from England for the past
three years to keep up the supply of lambs.
At the Smithfeld fair in England in De-
cember last, the 0xforddowns were award
ed the premium as the best mutton sheep
in the world. His own sheep have taken
prizes at the Maryland State fair, at fairs
in Chicago, St. Louis, Madison, Wis, and
indianapolis. The average yield of wool
of the flock is from II to 13 lbs, and as
they weigh double as much as common
sheep, they are worth much more as food.
Col Goldsborough also raises coits.-
He has an imported Cleveland Bay stallion,
and as he keeps l3 brood mares, always
has colts for sale, aud most of them of
excellent blood He has some go head of
cattle, besides II cattle nearly fattened for
the butcher Every fall he buys from 20
to 10 thin cattle, and fattens them, but
this year he has but the II. These cattle
are fed on cut roots, and ground corn and
hay. An engine runs the corn and cob
mill and the root cutter, when windmill
is not used
The farm buildings are conveniently ar
ranged, windmill drawing water to a
tank in one of them, from which it is trans
mitted by pipes to every yard and building,
so as to be always convenient for the stock.
Col. Goldsborough believes in saving time
and money so he has blacksmith and car
penter shop, with the necessary tools on the
place, and does not have to send anything
but wheels off the farm for repairs. 1t is
certainly pleasure to see farming at its
best, and it proves that energy, enterprise
and industry can be made to pay as well
in farming as in any other occupation.
Col. Goldsborough is a young man COM
paratively, (under 40) but his progressive
farming has brought him to the front in
his profession. and he is President of the
Oxford Down National Sheep Breeders
Association, and of the Talbot County
Agricultural society, which has held two
remarkably successful fairs under his
management He has lovely home, and
has no reason to envy any business man
of any large city, or even fortunate rail
road President

Old Maids.
From Good Housekeeping.

From Good Housekeeping.
The old maid has become an honorable
institution. Not that celibacy is particu-
larly honorable, for the day will never come
when that will rank above marriage, above
the family of husband and wife and son
and daughter. The time was when an old
maid was blighted being. There was
then but slight disproportion between the
sexes in number, and, the population being
sparse, every unmarried woman was con-
spicuous among so few people, and especi-
ally among so few of her kind, Shsst tllsn
had no excuse rur lIoI state of singleness,
or, at least, none that the public recog-
nized.
There was man to every woman, and
if she did not marry, the inference was
drawn that no man would "have" her. The
opinion of the day was that, woman was
in haste to marry, and not at all particular
about the man she accepted, so that the
acceptance was regarded as virtually by the
man, instead of by the woman. Hence
the old maid was reproached with being
unattractive with having a sour temper,
with being so repulsive that no man would
live with her.
But old maidhood is not now, prinG
facie, reproach. In the East there are
not enough men to go around-they have
,cone to subdue the West, to search for
filthy lucre, or to chase the bubble reputa-
ton in new country. The average age
at which marriage takes place is becoming
later in life, and the size of the average
family is falling away, so that it now has
two members less than it had so years ago.
Women were entirely dependent then, but
now they have become the possessors of
probably fifth to third Of the wealth of
the community in which they live, SO that
such of them as are unmarried now have
among them smaller proportion of depen-
dents than ever before.
Then, again, women know more than
they used to, along with the rest Of the
race; they have finer and more cultivated
feelings, they are more discriminating, and
have more Of choice about home, and
the man that shall dwell in it. They ap-
preciate higher state of happiness than
their great-grandmothers did, and marriage
must offer higher state Of qualification
than it once did before they will embrace it.
The old maid now has an excuse for her
existence, and is quite commonly lovable
person and an intelligent one. Who has
not often seen handsome old maidP To
be sure, she may have had the wrinkles
which some persons cannot appreciate as
an element of beauty, but she may, never
theless, be beautiful. The beauty of the
mind is the sublimest of all human beauty,
and an old maid who has lived life Of
goodness, selfsaerifce, of charitable dispo-
sition towards others, and of intellectual
cultivation, will have countenancc and
intonation of voice, and manner that will
bear the imprint of that life.
The day has gone by when an old maid
is to be spoken of disrespectfully or slight
ingly, or when she is to be looked upon as
one disappointed in life and misanthrope.
Old maids are more likely of the salt of
the earth, endeared to many friends, happy
in helping others, and radiating upon those
around them cheerful gcniality.

How Alligators Eat,

A Southern writer compares an .alliga-
tors mouth to an open sewer and says that
everything which enters his mouth goes
down, adding: He is lazy dog, and, in
stead of hunting for something to eat, he
lets. his victuals hunt for him. That is, he
lies with his great mouth open, apparently
dead, like the 'possum. Soon beetle
crawls into it, then fly, then Il gnat and a
colony of mosquitoes. The alligator doesn't
close his mouth yet. He is waiting for a
whole drove Of things. He does his eating
by wholesale. A little later lizard will
cool himself under the shade Of the upper
jaw. Then few frogs will hop up to
catch the mosquitoes. Then more mosqui-
toes and gnats viii alight on the frogs.
Finally whole village of insects and rep
tiles settle down for an afternoon picnic
Then all at once there is an earthquake
The big jaw falls, the alligator blinks one
eye, gulps down the entire menagerie and
opens his great front door again for more
visitors.

Remedy for Neuralgia.
Eleanor KIRK in the Baltimore Argus.

Eleanor Kirk in the Baltimore Argus.
A remedy for neuralgia comes from
physician in Germany, and l have the
opinion of several eminent physicians
here, that it has a scientific basis and can
not in any case do the least harm. Per-
sopally, have know it to be very success
full indeed Get unroasted coffee berries,
of best quality, Java or Mocha, and get
but small quantity at a time, as they
should be as fresh as possible. At night
put tablespoonful of the berries in cup,
fill the cup with boiling water, and cover
it tightly. Drink the water in the morn
ing as soon as you wake. This must be
taken regularly for six weeks in order to
effect cure for chronic cases. In acute
attacks, this beverage can be taken three
times day if necessary. Persons who can
not ordinarily drink coffee, need not fear to
try this, as the effect is entirely different
from that of the roasted berry.
