From late reports it appears that Con-

pension bill, in which case many worthy
veterans will be wOefully disappointed In
this emergency would it not be but fair TO
frame bill granting TO those veterans
who are entitled TO a pension the right to
secure a deed for 100 acres of land as was
first promised to all of us boys when we
went into the army in 1861? 1t would be
a God send to many poor and worthy men

For several years we have handled Gar
den and Field Seeds very extensively and
have DEVOTED a goodlY share of our time to
studying their various features, so that now
we are not boasting when we claim little
knowledge about them. We have tried to
find out what seeds are best for our neigh
borhood and where TO buy good seed. How
well we have succeeded remains for yOu to
find out, We have and are yet tr ing to
find out how we can double and treble our
last seasons sales and have devised several
plans to do it; one is--to get good seed, Of
course, and from responsible parties. An
other is-to sell cheap and give good mea-
sures; and still another is-to get You just
what you want in tho quickest possible
time and charge you nothing for packing,
freight, etc, only list prices in catalogue
you select from.
We have other features besides, and have
a very fine stock on hand and would be

to be q native OF India. It's botanical
name is Sesamum orientsle. Grows from
three to six feet In height, bearing
numerous sesd-pods filled with small
seeds. These seeds are said to be used
for food in many parts Of the world, and
IN some countries they are worked for
the oil which they contain in consider
able abundance. The oil is supposed to
much ressm BILE that of the olive, and 1t
Is used for the same purposes a. the olive
oil. The leaves are'very rich in musci-
lage, and are often employed In making
muscilagenous drink, especially for
the sickroom. One or two leaves
crushed in pint OF cold water will form
a drink as thick as IT could be used. The
leaves should be freshly gathered for use
in this way. Drink made with beue
leaves is, in point of appearance and
properties, much the same rs a drink
made with slippry elm bark. The
leaves bruised may be made into poul-
tice much like an elm poultice.
Sow seed SO soon as danger of frost is
over in spring, aud thin ont as the
plants grow and spread, for they must
have plenty of room.
Every family should have few bene
plants growing in the garden, but w
don't think there is anything in itsl1f
this country as an oil-yieldinS crop. kff
We were without our cotton sega R6ere
might be something in it, bufsSotton
seed OIL which is of much the same char
acter as bene oil would be, is, of course,
too cheap to admit of successful bene
competition. No doubt bene would suo-

numbers Of THE GAZETTE, and giving as
referred to contained an agricultural ar
ticle of much interest to them, and that
by some means it had been lost. So far
as we have been able to do SO we have
supplied these demands, though it has
given US good deal of trouble; besides,
it does not always happen that the de-
sired numbers can be had at the Office.
We dnow it is not always convenient for
every farmer to keep q completes file OF
his paper, but we would suggest that in
such case he make a scrap-book. 1t Is
not much trouble to make a scrap book
good enough to answer every purpose, II
the work be regularly kept up. 1t is not
ar all necessary to buy costly book for
holding the scraps, il you are not par
ticular about making fine job of it.
Many farmers we know Of use old 'pub-
lie Documents for the purpose. They
are usually of about the right size to take
two columns of THE GAZETTE side by side
on each page. Trim the columns out
neatly and paste them down on the page,
cut to the proper length, of course, then
turn over and continue on the next page.
When the second page has been filled,
cut out the next two leaves OF the book
and then continue with your matter as
at first, and so on until the book is full.
Cutting out two leaves between each two
pages pasted upon is necessary to pre-
vent the scrap-book from becoming
thicker at front than back.
A scrap-book made on this plan from
the matter of our agricultural depart
meIt will soon become most valuable
depository OF Texas farm literature,
ready for easy reference at any tims-a
collection that you would not be able to
find anywhere else in book form. We
try to get our matter all seasonable for
the time in which il appears, but in
this particular season 1t may not happen
TO interest you, while in next season, or
in some other season to follow, it might
be the very thing you a1ted to ses. If
you have it in a scrap-book you can turn
to it at any time when wanted.
Many farmers have small children who
would take deep interest in making the
scrap book suggested. We know of not
a few instances OF this kind where the
little children will scarcely wait for pa to
glance over the page ere they are after it
with scissors and paste.
