There Is no use in trying to econo.

The man who only cares to get them
through alive wastes all he feeds, and
has only stunted pigs instead OF the
thrifty ones he put up In the fall.
Breeding animals OF any kind should
not be fed heavily. especially on corn,
but even breeding sows should be kept
thrifty. and If they are young they
will probably grow in weight enough
to pay for their keep besides their
litter Of pigs in the spring.

Grain Drills.


No kind OF farm implement is moro
grossly abused or suffers worse from
such abuse than drills for dcpositing
eeed grain. As soon US any OF the
delicate machinery for distributing
seed becomes rusted it works poorly,
and the drill is then no better than
broadcast sowing, if as good. With
those having fertilizer attachments.
still greater care is required. They
must be not only sheltered. but every
particle OF the fertilizer be cleaned out
or it will surely cause rust. All COM
mercial fertilizers are made soluble by
sulphuric acid, and although the bone
takes up and neutralizes part OF this.
it cannot do so for the whole. Phos-
phate standing in sacks quickly eats
holes in them, and in contact with any
metal it certainly prod uces rust, which
prevents easy working of the machin-
cry. More grain drills rust out than
wear out. Thoy are used only few
days in any season. and If housed and
properly cared for at other times ought

Our Beef Production.

Having shown the drift of the cattle
industry the past decade. and exhibited
some periods Of astonishing growth.
writes Mr. Cuthbert Powell, shall
now look into the future and see If we
can read what is ahead OF us in this
most important branch of industry. In
the west many. indeed l may say most
of the big herds have been dispersed
or greatly reduced, the ranges cut
down more than one-half within the
past ten years and the small cattle
holdings increased-steers 81 per cent
and cows 80 per cent The cost Of pro-
duction is now estimated by our best
informed ranchmen at so per cent
greater than ten years ago, and the
danger of mortality by more crowded
ranges is greatly increased. 1t used
to be estimated that it took ten acres
OF range to support steer through the
year. and anything less than this
makes the grazing OF cattle on the
open range the year round risky. I'm
fortunately we have no means OF OBJ
tanning the number OF acres to each
head of cattle now in the range coun-
try. But that it has been greatly re-
duced the past few years by the rapid
increase in the number Of farms and
astonishing swelling of cattle hold
ings throughout the range country can
be clearly shown. In Kansas, accord
ing to the government reports. the
ratio OF grazing lands to tho number
Of cattle has been reduced so per cent
in Colorado two-thirds, in Texas one
half and Mexico nine-tenths. The
ranchman is therefore being crowded
on all sides. and a herd OF cattle on a
western prairie is no longer a goose
for laying golden eggs.

THE CONGRESSIONAL RACE.

We publish this week the an
nouncement of L. K. Riddick, Esq,
of FaYettce county as a candidate
for congress. Mr.. Riddick is a
Fayette county man from his in
fancy, and it seems that his county
people who know him best, are
solidlY backing him in the race,
includi Dg all classes and all occu-
pations, with the Farmers Union
or Alliance leading the van in their
endorsement of him. Mr.. Rlddick
is a good man and a successful one,
full of life and energy; a young
man comparatively, but one who
has had much experience in busi-
ness affairs; upright, straightfor
ward and sincere, and a thorough
democrat who can give reasons for
his political convictions. Harde-
man and Fayette are close neigh
bors and close kin and we believe
that the democracy of Hardeman
will take kindly to such candidate
presented by sister Fayette.

Railroad Meeting.

Maj. w. J, Sykes, who has been
interested in the building of rail"
roads for years, addressed about
seventy-fve citizens of Hardeman
county at the courthouse Monday.
He spoke in the interest of the con-
templated road to run east and west
through the lower Tier of counties in
Tennessee. He proved conclusive
ly that the building OF said road
would be paying investment, and
that it would rapidly develop the
abundant resources of the counties
of Giles. Wayne, Lawrence and
others through which it would run.
He advocated the luilding of rail-
roads generally, and attributed the
growth of Dallas, Fort Worth, Bir-
mingham and other towns to the
building of railroads. He compli-
mented Gen. Nicely very highly
for the efforts he made in trying to
have the old Memphis and Knox
VILE road built several years ago,
and said if he had been successful,
Bolivar and Hardeman county
would have felt its results and
been wonderfully benefited. He
said that the road would certainly
be built, and If the people Of Har-
deman expected it to run through
their county, they would have to
contribute.
After Maj. Sykes concluded, Mr..
Francis Fentress made few very
appropriate remarks IN which he
endorsed what had been said in
regard to building the road and
enumerated some of the advanta,
ges to he derived therefrOm.
The following resolution was in
troduced and passed;
Resolved by the stockholders of the
Memphis and Knoxville Railroad Co., in
convention assembled, lst., That we will
donate the roadbed aud all the franchises
of the Memphis and Knoxville Railroad
to any responsible company that will
| complete and operate said road
End, TIL at we heartily favor any scheme
that will secure the building of said road
and will do all in our power to aid any
reliable company to finish said line.
As Major Sykes stated IN his re-
marks, this road will undoubtedly
be built, and if Bolivar and Har.
deman county expect to get il, they
will necessarily have to ;sist in ii;
completion. II induced 10 come
by here this would make Bolivar
a junction of two of the most i'm
portant lines of road in the south
and the benefits resulting from sucf
a road would be incalculable &c
our town and county. This is al
important matter and deserves the
consideration of our people.

II. X. Riddick.

The Reporter and Falcon takes pleas.
ure in presenting to the Democratic voters
OF the Tenth Congressional district
the name of T. K Riddick, ESD, of Som
erville, as 4 candidate for Congress. The
authoritative announcement of his candi-
dacy appears in another column.
Mr.. Riddick was born in this county
near the beautiful little town of Macon.
His childhood and boyish days were
spent on a farm, while his mind was be-
ing prepared for the future in the schools
OF that district. Afterwards he attended
Macon College, and there graduated at the
head of his class, receiving a baccalaur-
cate degree. Choosing the law, he atten-
ded Lebanon Law School, and received
his diploma with distinction. In this
old institution he was the peer of any in
legal learning and received the medal as
the best debater. Quick In his intellect
tual perceptions and logged in his pertin-
acity of acquiring knowledge, he then laid
the ground work of future success at the
bar. He came 10 Somerville in 1878 and
hung out his shingle, soon acquiring a
foremost place among lawyers who would
adorn and grace any court in the United
States. Although young man, not hav-
ing reached his fOrtieth year, his success-
es have been no less marked in business
than in law. Owning thousands of broad
acres in Fayette county, he is thorough
" identified with the agricultural messes
of our people. He also owns large pro-
perties in Memphis, and Is well known
in the business circles of that city. Mr..
Riddick married charming lady, Miss
Amelia Pulliam, several years ago, and
