AS the agricultural resources and
enterprises Of the Southern States be-
come yearly more and more diversi-
fed and extended, the processes Of
Southern farming are becoming of
greater Importance and interest to
the world Of agriculture Georgia,
tormer v rice. and cotton raising
state almost exclusively, is proving to
be finely adapted to profitable grass
culture, and there ore thousands Of
acres of low land alon. the Savannah
river of almost inexhaustible fertility
which with proper management could
produce all the hay required in the
South. A most successful grass farm
near Augusta, Ga, with the methods
Of its cultivation, forms the subject of
an interesting illustrated article in
the American Agriculturitt for Au-
gust, which will be read with interest
by farmers both North and South.
A ready market for The hay raised is
found in Augusta, and 400 tons Of
hay cut from farm of 100 acres in
one year gave a return of $4,000.
The chief difficulty in farming these
lowlands is the occasional overflow of
the Savannah river, and to guard
against this the owner Of the farm
surrounded it with substantial levees
about four feet in height.

WASHINGTON, July H.--One OF
the recommendations likely to be in
corporated in the report Of Secretary
Tracy to congress is that all vessels
built or purchased by the government
be constructed with view to service in
time of war as smaller naval vessels,
A prominent official Of the navy de-
partment, speaking on the subject,
said: 1T we are going to have M.
Wy, let us build it up by all means in
our power and make every vessel
owned by our government part of it,
to be used for its primary purpose in
time Of peace, but effective for ofense
and defense in time of war. There
are probably Il hundred revenue cut
tiers, lighthouse tenders and vessels
operated in TIE service Of the fish
commission, coast survey, ETC., which
could and should be constructed so as
to form powerful arm of the navy
in time of need. AS it is, they are
built without regard for protection Of
their machinery or facilities for car
rying armament. Both Of these could
be provided without materially in
creasing the cost of the vessels"
Secretary Tracy, in order to carry
out this idea Of unity in plan and Or
ganization, has appointed board,
which will formulate ard report to
him general plan to be followed in
building up the navy.

KIND TIM BYENES,

-, 'WAsHlNGToN, July PIT was
about two years ago that man
named Morse at St. Cloud deserted
his wife and ran away to Canada.
He also left bad financial record be-
hind. Mrs.. Morse was lett with two
children to support, and has found it
exceedingly difficult to keep the wolf
from the door. When the new adj
ministration came into power she was
assured by Minnesota friends that
there would be but little difficulty in
securing place i'll some of the de-
partments. She came to Washing
ton endorsed by such men as Judge
D. b. Searle, H. G. Waite, Gov. Bar
to, D. w. Bruckhart, John Cooper
and many other prominent people Of
st. Cloud. She did not attempt the
vifservice examination, but expect
ed te get something else outside the
classified service. She was not per-
sistent olRceseeker, and when told by
those to whom she applied that they
would see what they could do for her
she was satisfied to wait. Mrs. Morse
has waited months, and it was only q
few, days ago that 7. E. Byrnes found
sshat-she had been reduced to severe
financial Straits. Her ssoncy was
gone, She had sold her jewelry and
lastly her cloak. This information
set Mr.. Byrnes at work, and he found
her some employment about the treas
ury building. 1t is small place
with a small salary, but it will serve
to keep actual starvation from the

A Boston Cats Ride.

One of Boston's handsomest Maltese
cats arrived in this city this noon on
the 10 "a express via Springfield. She
secured passage in a drawing room
car, or rather under it, just before the
train left the Boston and Albany de-
pot in Boston, and came through in a
hurry. One of the porters on the
train noticed her seated cozi]y upon
the break beam of one of the trucks
just before the train started, but sup.
posed she would jump off when the
car began to move. On the contrary,
the cat fastened her claws into the
woodwork all the firmer when the
train started, and during her ride of
126 miles maintained her position un-
disturbed by the whirlwind of sand
and gravel that would have smothered
an ordinary mortal When the train
reached the city she was still in pos
session Of her senses, and had become
SO firmly attached to her new home
that the porter could scarcely pull her
off the truck. When he did she, how
ever, quickly ran back and took her
former seat on the truck, and it was
on!y wien tle luggage master again
pulled her off and held herin his arms
till the train moved away that the
cultured cat could be persuaded to re-
main in the capital city. She was moi
in the least disturbed by her rapid
transit, and when Hackman Banning
placed her on the back seat of his hack
she Immediately began to purr con-
tentedly, and rode in great style to he,
new home on Barber street, running
her claws down into the cushioned
seat and pulling slowly upon the cloth
in her musical peace Of mind. Hart

The Atlanta Constitution tells this
story on a resident called Uncle Rad
Morrow:
On one occasion when Uncle Rad
went on to Virginia with clothing and
home cooked rations for the boys, he
did not get there until late in the eve
ming and found the Tenth Georgia in
line of battle, SO he concluded to stay
all night with the regiment, as he had
frequently done.
That night about midnight the
long rolf sounded, and the alarm
was given that the Federals were adj
vancing by thousands; couriers and
aids were dashing hither and yon or.
dering all hands to look out and be
ready to advance at moments no

Sending a Map by Telegraph.

The facsimile telegraph, by which
manuscript, maps or pictures may be
transmitted, is a species Of the auto
matte method in which the receiver is
actuated spontaneously with its trans
mitter BY Lenoir's method picture
Or map is outlined with insulating ink
upon the cylindrical surface Of a rota'
ting drum, which revolves under a
point having slow movement along
the axis Of the cylinder, and thus the
conducting point goes over the cyin-
drical surface in a spiral path. The
electrical circuit will be broken by
every ink mark on the cylinder which
is in this path, and thereby CORE
spending marks are made in a spiral
line by an ink marker upon drum
at the receiving end. To produce these
outlines it is only necessary that the
two drums be rotated in unison. This
system is of little utility, there being
no apparent demand for fac-simile
transmission, particularly at so great
an expense of speed, for it will be seen
that instead Of making character Of
the alphabet by a very few separate
pulses, as is done by Morse, the mum,
Der must be greatly increased. Many
dots become necessary 10 show the
outlines OF the more complex char
acter,
The pantelegraph is all interesting
type of the fac-simile method In this
form the movements Of pen in the
writer's hand produce corresponding
movements of a pen at tho distant sta
ton, and thereby fac-simile record.
