THE SOLE CAUSE.

THE SOLE CA USE.
 Our Bcighbor, the Democrat, attempts all explanation ef why Rev. Birmingham, can didate on the L. L. ticket for Supt. of Pub lie Instruction, was denied the Methodist church. Mr. Birmingham is minister in good standing in the NJ. E. church. There has been an investigation into business transaction, which he himself invited, and was exonerated.
 This furnished shade of cause why the church was denied. Under these circum- stances the U. l.. people felt that politics was at least to some extent the cause of hi, eN- clusion. It has been customary for former candidates for the same alice to preach in the Methodist church berc.-[ Dispatch
 It was not merely shade U' cause; it was the whole and sdIii- cient cause. MT. Birmingham was not excluded from the Methodist church for political reasons. and we are satisfied nobody knows this bet ter than the Dispatch. MT. Cason. the pastor, informs us that nobody had anything to do with it except himself, and MT. Ca>on is not poli- tictan, and does not open and close the doors of. his church for polit cal considerations. He had prompt ly promised to announce an appoint ment for MT. Birmingham in his church and had no thought of exclud- ing him therefrom. until he was in formed by his brother ministers, Rev. NIT. Brooks, of Hope, and Rev Dr. Chapman. of Little Rock, that formal charges were pending against MT. Birmingham, which, under the disci- pline. had the effect, as he knew, of suspending and siIencing him for the time being. Knowing the disposi- ton of the l.. l.. leaders to whine at every denial, and their proneness to misrepresent and distort facts, this embarrassed MT. Cason greatly. but with Christian rectitude and firmness he did his duty.
 The Dispatch undertakes to say that the charges are not now pend- ing; that they have been investi- gated, and the minister excnerated and that he was excluded from the Methodist church because he was candidate on the l.. l.. ticket Rev. MT. Cason, pastor of the church here. from which Mr. Birmingham was ex- cluded, Rev. MT. Brooks. pastor of the Methodist church at Hope, and Rev. Dr. Chapman, pastor of the first Methodist church, Little Rock, contradict this. Who shall be be- lieved: The Dispatch is not mem Der of the Methodist church. and not a great while ago it charged that the Democrats received money from the school book trust for use In the elec- ton here for school directors, and when challenged, refused to either prove the charge or retract it. Mes,rs. Cason. Brooks and Chap man are all ministers of the gospel in high standing, and are presumed to know the character of all the min isters of their denomination in the State. The Dispatch should prove or retract it's charge that the Demo- crsts received money from the book trust for use in the school election before it attempts to throw mud all over the Methodist church.

DO not let the weeds overrun the

any thing.
Good butter contains ten or twelve
per cent of water, but it should show
no trace of buttermilk.
No farmer can afford to keep poor
grade of hogs any more than an importer
or breeder who is raising to sell for
breeding purposes.
If the weeds have been permitted to
ripen their seeds, the only further in-
jury they can do is to furnish cover for
mice and insects. They had better be
burned.
Milk cans should be washed in cold
or tepid water first, and then rinsed in
boiling water before they are exposed
to be aired The addition of little
soda and borax to the hot water viii
increase its cleansing properties.
If the orchard or garden is to be
fortified there should be a very deh-
mite idea of what the soil and plants to
be grown need. However, it is safe to
apply the homemade manures on any
soil.
What mistakes have you made IN

have not looked the matter over to see.
If not, do so at once, for knowing our

Care of the Flock.

Many fiockmasters, says writer.
who are managing their farms and
looking after their focks at the same
time are so hurried that the flock does
not receive such attention as it should
at this season. Yet feel certain, from
my own experience, that proper atten-
ton to our flock at any time will be as
amply repaid as the time given to any
other part of our farming operations.
The fiocks should be seen and carefully
looked over at least every second or
third day, and better every day, so that
any unthriftiness on the part of any
member of the flock may be noted and
proper means resorted to put it in prop
err condition. If there is surplus OF
soft watery grass, as we have in wet
season, some members of the flock are
apt to scour. These should be sopa-
rated from the main flock, kept in the
barns and given dry feed part of each
day until they regain a healthy coO-
dition.-Rural World

Few Ideas on Pecan Culture by One
Who Has Had Experience.
The extreme difficulty that has so
far been met with in budding and graft
ing the pecan, has made it impossible
to produce trees in any thing like large
quantities by those methods. l have
consulted some of the best authorities
in the United States upon the subject,
and all agree that pecan trees can be
grated and budded, but that it is too
difficult to be profitable. Mr. Andrew
S. Fuller, author of that valuable little
work, THE Propagation of Plants, y
says: "Propagating the hickories by
budding and grating, has never been
pgaStieed with any very great success

A CatArdrg. k;nr.

A Bishop. *i'k as much ability for
dealing WIFI ?aaterial conditions as with
creeds, is. says the Epoch, Right. Rev.
William u. Walker, of North Dakota,
the inventor of plan for taking bis
cathedral with him when going forth to
preach the Gospel 10 men. This modern
type of ecclesiastical architecture is be,
ing constructed by the Pullman Palace
Car Company in their Chicago shops.
The missionary work for which it will
provide extends through territory
for the greater part lacking build
ings in which religious services could
be held. The Bishop will be the first
man in the world to travel about in
cathedral car suited for the assemblage
of audiences, and in which the church
rites will be performed at different
places. The car is sixty feet long, with
an approach to cathedral effect in the
use of sunken panels, ETC., with finish
in oak. A small room at the rear end
of the car will be vestry, or at times
a bedroom, as may be necessary for
lack of other accommodation. The
Bishop will do his work himself,
from trimming lamps and sweeping to
playing the cabinet organ. His cathe-
dral will take its chances behind a
freight train, as passenger trains could
not spend the time to switch it of on a
side track when it has stop to make.
Bishop Walker will send placards in adj
vance to announce his coming to any
place, stating at the same time what
rites will be held. This 'Church of
the Advent will have seats for about
eighty persons, with chancel at the
rear.

anywhere. Notwithstanding all tha
evidence to the contrary, the time q
not far distant when grated or budded
pecans will be quite numerous Not
many years ago it was thought by many
good authorities upon horticulture that
this class of trees could not be trans
planted successfully, and that the on1v
method of securing grove OF pecaax
or hickories was to plant the nuts wbefe
the trees were wanted in the grove
Upon this point the same authority
above quoted has this to say: This
very absurd idea has been repeated and
disseminated by men holding high no.
sitions, but who could not possibly have
had any practical experience in rails
ing or cultivating such trees These
theorists usually recommend the plant.
ing of the nut where the trees are in
tended to remain, which is not neces-
sary any more than it is to plant the
seeds of our common fruit trees in such
positions" A few advocate these old
exploded theories to-day, but the ma
joFity of people have become well
enough acquainted with this class OF
trees to know that they will bear trans.
planting as we'll as many Others, and
that even trees four or five years cid
may be successfully transplanted. IHg
necessary, however, that thew -n1uaS
have been grown on light sandy soil.
On such soil they can be made to pro-.
duce plenty of fbrous roots, whereas.
if grown on hard compact soil, tha
fibrous roots will be lacking.
and the chances are very strong.
in that case, that the tree will
not bear transplanting. So it
will be with budding and grating.
Some one will discover the one thing
needful to success, and then Seeding
pecan groves will become the exception,
but until the secret is discovered We,
must depend upon the seedlings. BY a.
careful selection of choice nuts to plant
we may succeed in not going backward.
AS this industry is yet in its infancy,
we may expect great things for it in.
the future. There is always ready sale,
for the nuts, and as they may be kept
Tor months, or even years, without i'm
jury, there is no reason why this Inc
dustry may not yet rival the orange Inc
dustry of Florida. A man with patieDce
enough to wait ten or twelve years fSe
an income, can make no better invest.
ment than to plant grove of young
pecans. Many man works hard for
twenty-five or thirty years and then
has not accumulated as much as Ave-
acre grove of twelve-year pecan trees
would be worth. When we learn to
labor and to wait, and not grow too
impatient for the reward of our labors
to come soon, we win not make so many
fatal mistakes in our efforts to a ttain
prosperity-S. L. Bishop, in FloIida
