AN EIMuCK GAME.
A Queer Tribe Living in the Vicinity of
the Afghan Border.

A Queer Tribe Living in the Vicinity of
the Afghan Border.
Near the Afghan boundary Mr. Stevens
reaches an Eimuek camp. 1.-THE tents are
of brownish-biack goat hair, similar in ma
terial to the tents of Koords and Eliautes;
in size and structure they are larger and
finer than those of the Eliautes, but in
ferior to the splendid tent palaces of Koor-
distan. couple of hundred yards from
the tents is a small spring of water in
closed within a rude wall of loosely-piled
stones; the water is allowed to trickle
through this wall and accumulate in basin
outside Here, as we ride up, are several
women filling goatskin vessels to carry TO
the tent. The chief and all his men are
arrayed in garments of coarse white cotton
stuff throughout loose pantaloons bound at
the ankles and an overgarment of pattern
very much like night-shirt On their
heads are the regulation Afghan turban,
with long, dangling ends, and their feet are
encased in rude moccasins with upturned
toes" Refreshing bowls of doke are
served, and then Mr.. Stevens rides up and
down before the tents to amuse the women
and children. The ground between the two
rows of tents resembled macadam boule-
ward for width and smoothness and so the
wild Eimuek tribes people received ten
minutes exhibition of the whirling, speed
ing and riding with hands off handles Of a
new-world bteyclist. Some of the women
were attired in fancifut colors; Turkish pam
falcons of bright blue and equally bright
red render them highly picturesque, and
they wear a profusion of bead necklaces
and the multifarious gewgaws of semi
civilization. The younger girls wear nose
rings of silver in the left nostril, with
cluster of tiny beads or stones decorating
the side of the nose. The wrists of most of
the men are adorned with bracelets Of
plain copper wire about the size of ordi-
nary telegraph wire; they average large
and well-proportioned, and seem intel
lectually superior to the Eliautes strik-
ing pecul artty of the people in this camp
is a sort Of hsping, Kissing accent to their
speech. When first addressed by the chief,
fancied it simply an individual case of
lisping; but every person in the camp does
likewise. Another popularity of express
sion that, while not peculiar to this par
ticular camp, is made striking by reason of
its novelty to me at this time is the use Of
the expression "0n as a term of assent in
lieu of the Persian ''balli interior

seed-Bed for Wheat.

Firmness and compactness are the
prime mechanical conditions of a
seed. for wheat The ground must
be crushed into small particles, and
while these particles must not be fused
into masses, they must be in close con-
tact.
In ground having these conditions,
moisture, air and heat are most gem
orally and equally diffused; hence
every seed is most apt to find the
conditions essential to termination.
and every plant the conditions essen
tial to growth. There is the greatest
capillarity, an important matter at a
time when we must depend much
upon the ground-water for the neces-
sary moisture in the soil; food is most
readily yielded to the plants-for
division and also general diffusion of
heat moisture and air increase the
supply of food available in form and
location; the roots get firm attach
ments; absence of large crevices in
sures absence of excessive air; the con-
ditions are against an excess of moist
ure, which, by its expansion in freez-
ing, would heave up the ground and
throw out the wheat; and the seed can
be most evenly distributed and COW
cred, and the best ridges be formed for
the protection of the plants.
Knowing these prime mechanical
conditions of the seed-bed for wheat.
we easily arrive at the advantages of
early blowing. First. we stop in good

SOUTHERN AGRICULTURAL.
The Farmers Trust.

The special tendency of the times
seems to be the formation of trusts.
Each day some new combination is
made and another trust is declared.
Meanwhile the farmers go on pro-
ducing and nothing is said about or
ganizing trust. And whyP
The farmers have the best trust pos
sible, the trust in God, they are conf
dent that harvest will follow seed
time, that the combined forces of nat
ure will give them living as long as
they do their share. In spite Of in
sects, storms, cold or heat, deluge or
drought their trust is that their barns
and bins will be filed and there will
be enough to spare to furnish the
money to buy clothes for the family
and provide all household necessities,
and exercising this perfect trust the
farmers labor on and are happy in
their work.
In each insect enemy they recognize
new Indictment to more determined
warfare and better understanding of
the nature of the plant and the habits
of the insect that wishes to help the
farmer gather his crops, and at the
same time is unwilling to consult him
as to how and when it shall be done.
The farmer trusts that his duty well
done will insure the deserved success.
and his trust does not fail him.
There is a second trust that the
farmer practices not to be so heartily
commemorative is the trust at the
village store and at the agricultural
implement and seed houses. Perhaps
no class practices the trust so persist
emily as the farmers. The number who
owe their ruin to this trust is greater
than the number ruined by any other
cause.
There are exceptional farmers who
have a regular income throughout the
year, and these are less puzzled as to
how to regulate their expenses.
The majority of farmers begin now
to get little money for garden truck.
but must wait for the bulk of their in
come until the harvest is gathered in
the fall. Then the income comes in
large sums, and for time the delu-
sion of wealth exists.
The bills that have accumulated
through the year are gathered to-
gether, and when they are settled the
farmer finds the margin small indeed,
and perhaps against him, instead of in
his favor. Then he is discouraged.
He finds the trusts to which he be-
longs has been against him and oft
ener is inclined to withdraw from
his trust in natures recompense
than his trust in the village store.
He complains that nature has worked
against him; that he has done his best
and it avails him nothing, and resolved
that farming does not pay, either with
draws entirely from the work, or con-
tinues with lack of zeal that makes
the work of nature doubly difficult.
The trust at the store is dangerous.
1t induces man to buy more than he
needs and incur debts hard to settle.
A wise man will determine his proba-
bic yearly income and so distribute it
as to have money to meet each
months demands, and be to great
degree independent.
A farmers trust is all right, if he
will put it in the right place; trust
his own ability, trust the goodness of
God, the justice of nature, the good
will of his neighbor and withdraw his
trust from the supply store. Mass.
