MIR. CABLES ANECDOTE.

The Accomplished Rock Islander
| Tells Of an Experience In the Dis.
| cussi0n of Literature.
In the Chicago Daily Ne,os. Eu'
gene Field writes the following anec'
dote told Mr.. Ben T. Cable, of this city, in
connection with discussion concerning
Robert Louis Stevenson, II. Rider Hag-
gard and others famous in the field OF
literature:
"Some years ago." says Mr.. B. T.
Cable, Il attended dinner given by q
friend in New York; physician, who.
coming originally from Scotland. has
made fame and money in our country.
Replying to a toast on this occasion
congratulated auld Scotia upon having
just given to the world another son who
occupied foremost place among con-
temporaneOus literateurs-Robert Louis
Stevenson. Having ended my speech,
which was as felicitous as | could make
it, | sat down, and was at once drawn into
conversation by an elderly gentleman sit
ting hard by. This gentleman told me
that Stevenson was particular friend of
his nephew, and he recalled several in
cidents illustrating the cordial relations
| between the two. Perceiving that the
old gentleman himself was a Scotchman,
| | renewed with increased enthusiasm my
| praise OF Stevenson. which seemed to
please my friend nightly.
His nephew, he said. was a very
bright man, and had he chosen his pro.
fession wisely he might have amounted
to much. But he would have his own
way, and, contrary to the wishes and adj
vice of his family. he embarked in litera-
ture. This step of his had always been
regretted by the speaker (his uncle) for
he recognized his talents and it had
panied him to see those talents perverted
and wasted. He might have amounted
to so much if he had kept out of lit.
eraturei
The old gentleman said this with so
much feeling that my heart went out in
pity to him. Still 1 was curious 10 know
who this nephew was-this misguided
young genius, the boon companion of
Stevenson.
And what is your nephew's namer" I
asked

tleman. sadly; It's all weel en0w TO talk,
bat wi the grace o God in my heart he
wudda made sic guide minls'err"
The OLD Scotchman's disdian for liter
ature reminds me of an incident related by
Mrs. Isaac Henderson. wife of the novel
list. ION our voyage to Europe we met
among other fellow passengers wealthy
gentleman from Boston. "One day he
asked me: We'll. madam, and what
does your husband do for livine?' With
sincere pride answered.: My husband
is an author An author. heyi said the
Croesus. Oae of those men who write
books hey?' Well. suppose they have
their uses.

There are in Virginia, the Caroiinas
and some other Southern States, large
areas of abandoned or partially aban-
donel lands In These districts the
plantations have been given over to
scrub oak, old field pine, and brambles,
because the former system Of agriculture
did not pay, or Because long continued
robbery Of the soil resulted in such i'm
poverishment that cultivation at last
would not produce livelihood for labor
expended. Land that has been i'm
poverished by tobacco-one of the most
exhaustive Of crops-or by cotton, as
has been done in the South, may be re-
stored By change Of agriculture,
and this restoration is even now gong
on. Fruits and vegetables will be
largely cultivated in the Southern States
on account Of the good markets for such
products in the large Eastern cities. 1t
will also be found profitable to raise
cattle. grain, wool, and dairy products.
The result Of this changed system of
agriculture will make the South even
more prosperous than it was in the
palmiest days Of plantation life.
When all the desirable agricultural
land of the West is occupied-which Is
but n question of a few years-then
these lands in the Southern States will
receive attention. Our population is in
creasing rapidly, and the time will come
when these farms will have to be sub
divided. The average size OF our farms
in this country is four times that Of the
farms in France, and in Belgium, Hol-
land. Germany, and England, they are
still smaller. While to-day in many
sections farms Of IS and 100 acres will
barely pay for cultivation, the time will
come when farms Of one-third or one-
fourth that size must pay. 1t is useless
to argue that it can not be done; such
farms are cultivated in a way to pay
even to-day. and must become even
more generally profitable in the future.
II would be well for the ,spective State
Departments of agricult re 10 establish
governmental farms in these neglected
sections. Such experiment farm should
be conducted in a manner to demon
strate to the unsuccessful farmers Of The
State how they can take their worn out
farms and renovate them; how they can
carry on an industry that has hitherto
appeared to be improbable in way 10
