Compost the Cow Manure.

Horse manure ferments so quickly and
easily under almost any circumstances in
the soil it soon gets into available condition
for use of crops. But COW manure is less
active. 1t should, therefore, either have
some horse manure mixed with it, or be
piled up loosely in sufficient bulk to start a
vigorous fermentation. 1t is not likely to
frefang, as horse manure will if left in even

March Work.

II has been many years since Georgia
.-,,ars have done as little work in March
=, thew have done this year. Over a very
t.,gs territory rain has been excessive, and
| ,1srs have been tut few days since March 4
Than the soil has been in suitable condition
s- Moving. Some blowing has been done,
| ,feaurse. but much of it was done when the
.,il was wet, and it will be very apt to show
be ill effects of such blowing. All along
ba roads we have noticed fields where more
| cr less blowing had been done between the
heavy rains that occurred during the
month. and the most prominent objects that
met the eve were the clods. The wind had
sardened these, and the smooth sides turned
aver from the plowshaFe almost glistened
| N the sun. 1t may safely be set down that
more land will be injured this year from be-
NO Moved too wet than has been the case
m many years. The injury thus wrought
viii more than offset the good effects of the
mall applications of fertilizers made to
me soil for the benefit of the present crop.
If more blowing was done in December and
January there would not be such rush in
March as there is nearly every season, with
the consequent result Of poorly prepared
land and hasty seeding. If the corn and
cotton lands were merely ridged during De-
cember and January unreasonable weather,
whether too wet or too dry, in February or
March would not interfere one-half SO much
with the proper preparing of the soil for
planting. Soil thus ridged up dries off more
randy than where it lies fiat and can be
Moved sooner after rain; and on the other
hand, if drought prevailed this ridged up
land will not get too dry to allow OF being
plowed at the proper time.
Nearly thirteen inches of rain fell in
Middle &c rgia during the month Of
March. 1t is a rare occurrence that thirty
heavy rains fall in one month, as fell during
the month just passed. On March over
four and quarter inches fell in less than
fifteen hours, and again on March II an
other heavy rain of over three and quar-
ter inches. On March % over two and a
half inches fell during the day. These three
rains foot up over ten inches. Showers be-
tween times came at intervals to keep the
soil constantly wet-too wet for satisfactory
powlDg.
4 wet March is not the presage Of a good
crop year, and simply from the fact that 1t
involves such ha ty preparation and plant
Ing it pre- iudes the possibility or making
large crops. There is nothing truer in farm
Ing than that "a crop well put in is half
made" but we fear there will be a We y
small area "well put inn this season, Judging
from what we have seen in one section Of
the country.

A Lock Four Thousand Years Old.

An Egyptian lock has been found which
we are assured was in use more than 400
years ago. This old Egyptian lock, tells
the European Trade Mail, was not made
of metal like those we use now -a-days, but
of wood and the key that opened 1t was
wooden, too. On one side of the door to
which it was fastened there was staple,
and into this staple fitted wooden bolt
that was fixed to the door itself. When
this bolt was pushed into the staple as far
as it would go, three pins in the upper part
of the staple dropped into holes in the bolt
and held it in its place, so that it could MOI
be moved back until the pins were lifted
The key was straight piece of wood, a
the end of which were three pegs the SAM
distance apart as the pin which held tn
bolt firm. When the key was pushed int
the bolt through hole made to receive !
the pegs came into such position tina
they were able to lift the pins that fxe
the bolt, and when these were lifted tn
bolt could be lifted out of the staple.

The Street Railway Problem

Facing the fact that there is proba-
bility OF the New Whatcom city council
granting a street railway franchise to the
petitioners, Thum & Todd, some OF the
councilmen busy themselves with the
query whether or not the Fairhaven city
council will grant reciprocal franchises.
1t seems that the solving OF TINS question
will have a great tendency to hasten mat
tiers pertaining 10 rapid transit iaeilitles
between the Bay cities. The New What
com council being aware OF the superior
kind OF a road the above petitioners VIII
mt into operation would no doubt vote
for the granting Of the franchise to
man, could they be assured OF similar
action of the Fairhaven council upon a
similar request.
Later IL was ascertained that inter-
ested parties having become cognizant oil
the favorable disposition OF the council
toward granting the Fairhayen company
a franchise, petition was gotten up ane
duplicates struck off therefrom which
were presented to citizens and business
men for signatures, Of which quite larg'
number we're obtained. The following Il
copy Of the petition;
To the Hon. Mayor and Council OF tn
City OF New Whatcom:
Gentlemen: The undersigned respect
fully represent 20 your honorable Ood
and petition as follows:
That you do not grant any street ca
franchise to the Fairhaven company owe
any streets In this city until such time a
the Fairhaven council shall grant TO GU
company a franchise into Fairhaven.
We make this request and earnest pet
ton, not for the purpose Of protecting an
street ear company, but for the purpose
securing for this city the best class
street ear facilities, which we believe wi
be brought about II your honorable boo
shall take the course herein Indicated.
Up to the present time, we are credio
Informed, the Fairhaven council has r.
fused to grant any franchise to our con
pany, although applications have be-
bending for the past year. We believe
now within your power to secure at lea
two through lines II you will refuse
grant franchise to the Falrhaven con
pany until such time as the Fairhav,
council will admit our company into fai
haven.
BY so doing you will insure two throul
lines instead Of one. and will have pr
vented monopoly, which the fairhav
company is now seeking to obtain, a.
viii thereby eventually bring to the CT
OF New Whatcom far better street C
facilities than will be obtained by NJ
granting the franchise asked for by I
Eairhaven company.
