The Tenants Crop.

The tobacco industry is one of the
greatest Of this section of the country,
as it is made speciality by the people,
on the principle that there is more
money in it than any thing else. 1t is
the only crop that land tenants have
an assurance of getting something out
of, and as long as the price keeps up
to figure in the neighborhood of ten
cents their expectations are usually
realized. No one should raise tobacco
except tenants, from the fact that there
are so many tenants who are able and
willing to take charge of a piece of
land and cultivate it, and yet there
is not enough land to meet
their requirements. Whenever the
landlords add to the vol
ume of production-and when we
say land ords in relation to this mat
ter. we mean men who have large
farms who are not compelled to Guilt
vate tobacco. but really ought to look
after other crops, and keep their farms
in repair. AS they get half Of the to-
bacco produced on their farms they
can afford it for two very important
reasons. One. that the production ID
lessened, and consequently the market
is not overstocked. and fair prices
rule as a general result. The other
reason is, it gives the landlord a
chance to look after the details
of his farm and keep it pro.
ductive and in repair and by both
means he secures more net profit with
less trouble and labor. The man who
does otherwise is simply the man who
kills the goose that lays the golden
egg. and is impoverishing the land,
the tenant and himself. Avaricious.

Grapes in North Carolina

The ease with which the vine is cnL

favor and quality of wines made from
native grapes, has led to the planting
of many vineyards in the Old North

enormous Waste in Smoke.


Some idea of the enormous waste
caused by the escape of smoke into the
atmosphere may be formed from some
recent estimate made by Prof. Chandler
Roberts. He calculated that the weight
of the smoke cloud which daily hangs
over London, Eng, amounts to about
fifty tons Of solid carbon and $50 tons
of carbon in the form of hydro-carbon
and carbonic-oxide gases. From the
actual result of tests made by the
6moke-abatement Committee the value
of coal waste in smoke from domestic
CRATES amounts, upon the annual con-
sumption of 100000 of people, tc
eli, 282, 800. The cost Of carriage on
this wasted coal is calculated to be 81.
S4S, $50, while the unnecessary passage
of about 1000, 600 horses through the
streets in drawing it adds seriously to
the cost of street cleaning and repair
ing. Then there is the cost of taking
away the extra ashes, $215, 900 per
year. Summing it all up, the direct
and indirect cost of waste coal may be
set down at $13. 600, 900, plus the addi-
tional loss from the damage done to
property caused by the smoky atmos-
phere, estimated at $4,000, 900, the
whole aggregating $4,000. 000.-Chi.

"A handful of linseed meal to the

beneficial. It is also excellent for the

MARRIED LIFE A BURDEN.

knc-Two Other CAGES.

knG-IWO Ofhef Caeou.
The coniugal differences between
Charles Benson and his wife, Lucy B.,
which have been aired in the news
papers numerous times during the
past year. were all related before
Judge HanfoTd in chambers ycster-
day, IN the famous divorce suit to
which the better haifr is plaintiff.
Mr.. Benson Is y years Of age and
his wife Is 81. She was one of the
Mercer girls brought TO Washing
ton territory in fSS7. Benson met her
soon after her arrival and married her
an hour afterwards. Ii his story as
told yesterday Is to be believed, he
married in haste and has been re-
penting for twenty-five years. He
says that Mrs. Benson is q termagant,
that she failed 20 keep house in Q re-
spectacle manner, and that she made
life q burden 10 him. One of the spe-
eihc acts he charges against his
recreant spouse is that she made him
sleep in m bed for twenty years with
ont ever changing or washing the
blankets. He said during the twenty
two years he had lived with her she
had never put a single stitch in his
cloth es.
Why, she cut up my first wife's
beds and made pillows Of EN- said
the old nan smiling Inadvertently
across the table nj Mrs. Benson. land
then made me sleep without a pillow
all these years"
This statement appeared to amuse
Mrs. Henson very much, which caused
her liege TO point at her with the
scornfui remark that she slept in 4
dogs nest
Mrs Benson claims that she has
better reason to regret the matgimo-
NAL misfit than her husband. She
accuses him OF habitual drunkenness,
cruelty aGd Qilnrs to provide for her
wants.
The case was very spicy one and
occupied the attention Of the court
until late in the evening. McGiivra &
Blaine are attorneys for the plaintiff
and James Hamilton Lewis attorney
for the defendant Judge Hanfori
will decide the case on Monday.
Referee Boyd j. Taiiman submitted

suits OF Alice Thompson VS.. Joe II.

finds the defendants gully Of hahituaI
