The "ODoRIFEROus EsCULENT. ~
Farmers who bring In loads of
onions now 90 home with their
pockets full OF cash, aud Il happy,
contented smile on their faces.
These nutritious, oderlferous and
wholesome esculents now bring 81

his onion crop through the winter
has reason to rejoice, for last fall
they sold for 70 cents per GENITAL.
There has been but little loss as vet
from the onions sprouting, but this
will soon make serious inroad on

II the farmers begin to pile them ia
teo iast the price will probably go
down, for there Is nooutside market

prosIeet for additional profits by

Care or Brood Mares.

Brood mares, says the American Gull
tivator, should have extra care from
now until the time Of foaling. Moderate
exercise upon the road will be much bot
ter for them than standing in stall.
Feed upon the best Of hay and sound,
clean, sweet oats. Musty hay and in
jured oats are liable to cause slipping of
foals. 1t is better for both mare and
foal that the former does not take on
too much flesh. AS rule foals from
very fat mares are much more puny at
birth than those from strong, hearty
ones in only fair condition.
Moderate exercise upon the road OF
farm is much better for brood mares in
New England than standing in stalls
day after day. Such as are not exer.
cised by work of some kind should have
few hours run in an open yard when
the weather is suitable. 1t will be nee.
essary to look after them some then
for many pregnant mares are inclined
to stand still when out of doors.
There are few things which those
who have the care of brood mares should
be careful to avoid. One is permitting
them to drink too heartily of cold water.
When salt is kept constantly in their
hangers, and they are watered three
times day, there is not much danger.
When they are salted only once a week.
and perhaps not SO of~yn, the danger i:
increased. Probably there are more
foals killed prematurely in the North
during the winter months by their dams
drinking cold water to excess than from
any other single cause. Very few farm
ers are aware of this fact, however,

To lessen the work of keeping down
the weeds good plan is to burn brush
heap on the place selected for the seed
bed. The place selected should be we'll
drained and be in warm situation.
After the fire, rake off whatever pieces
of wood are left, stir the soil four or five
inches deep and sow the seed, taking
pains first to work the soil into q good
filth. The seed are very fine, and il a
good termination is to be secured the
soil must be we'll prepared. In order to
avoid having the seed too thick, it will
be good plan to mix the seed with
wood-ashes before sowing. To have
vigorous, thrifty plants, care must be
taken not to sow the seed too thick.
1t is best to roll the bed after sowing
the seed, as this will press them into
the soil sufficiently to induce a good
termination If this can not be done
readily fine-toothed rake should be
used Care should be taken to protect
against the cut-worm while the plants
are tender. Boards four or five inches
high set close around the bed will help
considerably. Dust the plants with
slug-shot or paris green one part and
air-slaked lime three parts Repeat
after every shower until the plants are
out of danger. A tablespoonful of seed
will, under ordinary conditions, grow
enough plants for four or five acres.
The planting out should be done about
the same as with cabbages and toma'
toes, taking care that the roots are kept
moist and that the soil is in close con-
tact with them. More loss is suffered
by allowing the roots of plants to get dry
and not having them in contact with
the soil than from all other causes com
bined.-St. Louis Republic.

WHY BOOKS FAIL.
1t Is Because tho People Who Wrote
Them Have Nothing Original to Say.

Ii Is Because tho People Who Wrote
Them Have Nothing Original to Say.
The reason why so many books fail is
because the people VINO wrote them
have nothing original to say, or what
they say is said badly. Another reason
is that few of those who can write know
any thing. They have no invention.
They do not see with their own eyes,
but with other peoples eyes. They
write books about other peoples books
and have little of their own to tell US.
Chamfort gives another idea of author
Ship "What makes the success OF
numerous works." he says, 'is the Atm
ity between the mediocrity of the ideas
of the author and the mediocrity OF the
ideas of the public"
When an author has composed work,
he necessarily takes an interest in it,
Every writer of books, says Shelley,
likes to breech his paintings, He may
have spent many years upon it, and
probably forms an excessive estimate of
it's value. He is under the impression
that most readers of books will desire to
possess it, Lackington, the bookseller,
tells the story of gentleman who,
not being able to find a purchaser for
his manuscript, resolved to publish it
at his own expense. The publisher de-
sired to know how many copies should
be printed. The gentleman began to
compute how many families there were
in Great Britain, and assured the pub
Usher that every family would at least
purchase one copy. He was of opinion
that at the lowest 10000 copies only
might be printed of the first edition.
The publisher prevailed upon him,
much to his disgust, to print only 1,250
instead of 60, 600. The result was that
only 100 copies were sold, not even
enough to pay for the advertisements,
and the author departed, railing at the
stupidity of publisher. bookseller and
public.
Book-writing is quite as much spec
ulation on the one hand as book-selling
is on the other. Only small number of
the books published pay their expenses,
and very few of them reach second
edition. Every year." says De Quin-
cey. "buries its own literature" When
an author writes for money, he goes to
the publisher and endeavors to sell him
the manuscript for as much as he can
get. He may get too little, or he may
get too much. The publisher takes the
risk, and incurs the expense of printing,
binding and advertising. If the book
sells and the author thinks he has got
too little, he proclaims that he has been
out-witted or defrauded. But il the
book does not sell, it never enters the
authors head TO refund the copy money
or return the amount Of loss to the
publisher. Both have run the risks OF
the speculation, and both must be con-
tent to abide the issue.-Murray's Mag

FARMER AND PLANTER.
KING COTTON.
Process for Turning Cotton Stalks Into
Good Tagging.

A Process for Turning Cotton Stalks Into
Good Bagging.
Few fights have been more bitter
chan that waged by the Southern cotton
planters, individually and as Alliance
men, on the Jute Bagging Trust. Rather
than use the jute article, planters have
sent cotton to Augusta, Ga, the second
largest inland market Of the country,
covered with sheeting and pine-straw
bagging at net loss OF over dollar
bale. Pine straw, beargrass, palmetto
and Spanish bayonet fibers have been
turned to, but found Objectionable in one
way or another William e. jackson, a
young lawyer of Augusta, began
about six years ago expert
menting with stalk fiber. He
secured a machine patented to develop
South American fibers and began run
ming cotton stalks through. He re-
moves pulp and skin from the stalks by
heavy pressure and slow-rolling proc
ess, water carrying off the foul residue.
He ran the fiber through cording ma
chimes and secured an article OF about
the same tenacity and color as lutte.
Still keeping his labors secret, he
worked at the stalks until he had a bale,
shipped it to himself. and left for New
York. At the jute bagging factory of j.
days getting his lint in shape for weav-
ing. Mr.. Todd, an experienced man in
the bagging business, pronounced the
cotton stalk article all that could be
asked by the trade.
Mr.. Jackson has just returned from
New York, and Georgia cotton circles
are jubilant. He has his process COW
cred by letters patent in this country,
Canada, Mexico, India, South America
and all the European countries. He can
pay SO ton for the stalk delivered at
railroad stations, and manufacture at
~ cents yard, price he defles the
jute people to undersell at profit By
using what has been nuisance-the
stalk-for which the farmer will now
find a market, it is estimated that S.
O00,0 900 that went for jute bagging will
be kept in the country. Robbing the
shoboOlJ VA iOo NIL odthoOll
makes good business showing. BY trial
it is shown to be less inflammable than
it's iute brother. 1t weighs about ~
pounds yard. On an average Z
yards are required for a bale. Mr..
j. j. Doughty, cotton exporter, says
not one man in thousand who handles
cotton every day could detect at first
glance difference in cotton stalk and
jute bagging. The local article is
somewhat softer and a shade darker,
but it will not stain and takes marking
legibly. Gotten circles are delighted,
as the planters opposition to jute has
been sore trial to merchants. The
annual stalk field will bale three year
ly crops of cotton. A prominent jute
dealer saw the new bagging and was
reticent. He did not care to be inter.
viewed. Mr.. Jackson has no schedule
yet, but said headquarters for his mills
and offices will be in Augusta, though he
may have to go over to Tennessee OF
Alabama iron fields to locate his ma
chine shops.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat
