Eeighborhood Guilds.

contemporary summarizes the in
teresting account of Neigh borhood
Guilds" given by DR.. Stanton Colt, the
young American who has been apply
ing to London life the experiment
which he had already carried out in the
heart of New York poverty. A neigh
borhood guild consists of number of
small clubs formed according to age.
DR.. Colts field is divided into five clubs
two for young boys and girls, two
for youths and maidens and one for
adults. In each guild the clubs
are small enough for the leader
to know each member personally
the vice of excessive size being
one which Dr. Colt condemns. Several
guilds may federate-the theory of the
guild is that of reproducing the family
as the best type of corporate life. Above
all, everything is built on democratic
basis, and each guild is self-governing.
TITS the chief idea of each guild worker
that there is to be no condescension, no
going down" to the poor The success
of the various experiments in guilds
shows that this form of charity meets
certain needs of the age, and undoubt-
edly leads to an extern sion of social SYM
pathy, and to a better understanding
between the rich and the poor

NAMING A TOWN.
Tho Father OF Seven Red-Headcd sisters
Started tho Town OF Aaburndale.

Tho Father OF Seven Hed-Headed sistera
Started tho Town OF Aaburndale.
The town of Auburndalc, Wis, re-
ecived its name in peculiar manner.
Years ago, when that section was COM
paratively undeyeloped and land was
cheap, man named King located there
and built mill.
The place had good shipping facil-
itics and the mill soon become a nu.
cleus of quite thriving, bustling little
town.
Then arose the question of name
for the embryo city, and by common con-
sent the right of naming it was conced-
ed TO the first settler, Mr.. King.
The citizens wanted TO call the place
Kings Mills, but the old gentleman OBJ
jected. lie said he didn't want his name
tackled on to any onc-horse or two-horse
village.
Now, says the New York Continent,
the old man was the happy father of
seven bouncing daughters, and the vii.
layers suggested that the name of one
of them should be given to the new
town.
This idea pleased the father as much
as it pleased the seven daughters, but
which one of the seven fair ones should
be honored above her six sisters? The
town could not be handicapped with all
the seven names
Finally a happy thought struck the
old man. Every one of his seven daugh-
ters was red-headed. He decided to
honor them all by christening the town
Auburndalc, and Auburndale itremains
to this day.

COTTON HARVEST.
Points to be Observed in Gathering an
Marketing the Crop.

Points to be Observed in Gathering and
Marketing the Crop.
The main point to be observed in
harvesting crop of cotton is to gather
1t into the gin house or cotton house as
fast as 1t opens. Start the pickers so
soon as enough is open to enable them
to pick forty or fifty pounds day, and
press the work from the start, letting
nothing of less Importance interfere.
Every day that an open boil of cotton
remains on the stalk it loses in weight,
color and cleanness and consequently
in marked value. Trash should be
avoided as far as practicable, without
materially affecting the speed of the
piclSers; but don't make the mistake of
being over-particular at this point.
Farmers A and b, each with an equal
force of pickers, have each ten bales of
cotton open in the fields. A aims to get
the tip-top of the market for his cot
ton. In week he gathers five bales of
cotton which will command the highest
price, leaving five bales in the field. B
PUSHES things and gathers ten bales in
the same time and leaves very little IN
the field. Between Saturday night and
Monday morning the winds blow and
the rains descend and beat upon" the
rive bales left in AS fields. Result: A
sells five bales at eight cents, and the
five bales left in the field, if the cotton
could be gathered to itself, would not
command more than six or seven cents.
sells his ten bales for seven and three
quarter cents, one-quarter of cent less
than the top, because of more trash.
The unfavorable comparison is obvious;
was wiser than A.
In regard to marketing cotton we
have no confident advice to offer. As n
rule, the farmer should sell enough cot
ton at once to meet current debts.
The truth is, farmer has no business
to be in debt. 1t embarrasses and
entangles him, and utterly destroys
independence. The alliance ought
to make it a cardinal principle of
the order to avoid debt as if it were a
deadly Upas. Increased facilities for
borrowing money by farmers is doubt
full policy. Borrowed money must be
repaid; increased circulation, while it
may enhance the market value of crops,
will also increase the prices of supplies
which the farmer must buy. We are
old-fashioned enough TO believe in the
cash system-especially for farmers,
mechanics aud al wage.workers--the

CROSSING THE FORTH BRIDGE


An Old Lady's Fear About the Unde,'
taking.
London journal says that stout
and elderly woman was on board train
which was approaching the Forth
bridge. Her remarks, which she be-
slowed right and left upon her fellow
passengers, showed that she was unac'
customed to travelling; yet she must
have been something of a philosopher
in her own way.
The old lady was nervous about the
bridge. She had seen pictures of it, and
mad made up her mind that it could not
be quite safe. She kept inquiring when
the train would come to it, and at last
was told that it was close at hand.
"Well," said she, rather solemnly, 81
don't know whether we shall get over
alive or not, but if we don't it shan t
be my fault"
Then she settled into the corner of
the seat with determined air and a
puckercd-up mouth, which were only
less droll than the general air of respon.
sibility which brooded over her. During
the passage of the bridge she did not
speak a word, but seemed to be holding
her breath.
There" said a gentleman in a neigh
boring seat. 1--WE are over it safe"
The old woman hcaved an explosive
sigh.
"Well," she said, 'if we had gone to
the bottom | should have died with a
clear conscience, for it wouldn't have
been my weight that did 1t. bore Up
so that really made the train light sr
than il would have been without me-

THE MEAT SUPPLY.
Push the Hogs Intended for Pork In De-
cember.

Push the Hogs Intended for Pork In De-
cember.
This is the time TO commence push
ing the hogs intended for pork next De.
cember. Field peas, peanuts, new corn,
sweet potatoes are now ready for use.
Mild weather is the time for fattening.
1t has often been said that a pound of
any fattening food fed in September or
October is equal TO two pounds fed in
December or January; and we believe
tbs true.
A very large portion OF food con.
sumed in cold weather, especially when
the animal is not well protected by
proper shelter, Is devoted to the Office
OF keeping up the animal heat
Hence the process of fattening goes on
very slowly, or at least, more expen-
sively. 1t is, therefore, sound policy, on
this account as we'll as for other reasons,
to have the hogs fat enough to kill early
in December. We are conscious of the
fact Qamentable it is) that many farm
ers who will read these lines have no
hogs to butcher They have almost for
gotten the old-time "hog-killing, and
yet they eat bacon and lard all the
same. With them raising their own
bacon" is about as foreign to their ideas
and their practice as the making of the
tracechains and axes necessary in farm
work We trust, however, that the
number of these is growing smaller
year by year, and that the day will
come again when every farmer will
realize that it is cheaper and in every
way better TO provide such necessary
supplies by home efforts, instead of re-
lying on the western farmers, the rail-
roads and the merchants. Dixie

HERE AND THERE.

There is too much idleness on our
farms, and it is not always the husband
man that is idle. There is land idle and
paying no interest. Stock and tools un-
employed and useless
The man who raises one hundred
bales of cotton on three hundred acres
is not a cotton king. He who raises all
the crops necessary to support himself
and stock, and three bales of cotton on
ten acres is the true monarch.
BY no means should boar be Sc
lected to head heard that is faulty in

The work on animal parasites in
sheep, written by DR.. Curtis for the de-
partment of agriculture, can be had by
sheep breeders free, if they will write
to Hon. j. M. Rusk, secretary of agri-
culture, Washington, d. c., asking him
for copy. An old sheep breeder speaks
of it rs the best work ever issued on the
subject.
M any men make mistake in Sc
lecting large boned swine for breeders.
Too often the bones are soft and weak,
which is very noticeable when the ami
mails are fatted, and these deficiencies
will be reproduced in the offspring, and
probably in magnified degree. Smaller
bones are often stronger than the large
ones Rural World
The United States within the last
year has imported more than five times
the amount of sheep than were export
ed for food purposes. The imports,
principally from Canada, were 1886, 1853
head, while the exports were only 90, 947
head. Our markets probably furnish
the Canadian fockmasters the best op-
portunity for profit they have within
available reach. -Rural World.
We can not raise too many oats.
Every farmer in the south, where pos
sible, ought to raise enough to supply
his own farm, and have small surplus
for sale. We hear that there is dispo-
sition to shorten the oat crop, the ex-
cuse being that the cotton is still in the
field. The farmers will be unwise If
they let anything stand between them
and their oat crop.-Dixie Farmer.
Much of the cotton raising of TIE
day seems based on the idea advanced
by clothing merchant, in Augusta
He always sold his goods below cost.
"How do you make anything then, "
was a question propounded to him more
than once. His invariable response
was: Because sell so much" Cot
ton is sold for a price below its cost of
production, and the farmer thinks he
can only make by selling great deal
of it.-Southern Cultivator.
Americans can learn from the Jap
anese thing or two about making
stalls for horses. In Japan horses are
backed into their stalls, then a door is
closed at the head, which has a grain
and hay rack conveniently constructed,
to which the nag is hitched. When
needed the door is swung back and the
horse led forth. No one gets kicked, no
refuse matter is visible to the visitor,
and it seems to be sensible way to
construct place for any horsa Dixie

Corn and Peas.

1t is not too early to gather the most
forward corn in a large proportion.
The same principle applies here as in
the case of cotton, but with much less
force. Corn, from which the fodder
was stripped month or five weeks
ago, may be harvested with safety, es-
pecially if slip-shucked, and not put in
too large mass. A good rule is to
commence gathering in the corn crop as
soon as it is in condition-to keep in the
crib, and push the job to completion
without stopping, provided there be not
much cotton to gather. -Dixie Farmer.

Grass and Winter Forage,

Now is the time to lay in stock of
grass seeds if you intend to embark in
grass culture Tall oat, orchard, red
top and rescue are species best adapted
to the south. October is the time to
SOW. Get the land ready. But Sep
TENDER is the time to sow early rich
lots in barley orrye, preferably barley,
if the land is rich and otherwise suit
able. Don't stint in the matter of seed.
An acre of rich land should have three
to six bushels of barley or two to
three bushels of rye. Plow the
ground deep and close, SOW the seed
uniformly over the surface, harrow
smooth, and, if practicable, roll the
surface. Seed rye should be home
grown. Seed rye from the northwest
is no good. Even Texas rye does not
succeed in Georgia so well as the
Georgia grown seed. Seed rye appears
to become affected with Inconsistencies
when growing long way from it's
native soil and climate, and fails in
vigor and productiveness. - Southern
