Halcyondale's Shower.

HALcYoNDALE, GA, May 9.-There ia
general rejoicing among all the people in
this section over the rain. The long
drought lasted nearly eight weeks. From
appearances Scriven's drought is over. The
farmers have suffered considerably. The
cotton in many instances that had been
planted three weeks still lay in the ground
unsprouted. And not a few had planted a
second time. 1t appears to be conservative
and safe prediction that Scriven's cotton
crop will not be over so per cent. of an
average production, should conditions from
now on be even and favorable.

as they grow slowly the weeds will otter

as they grow slowly the weeds will often
get the best start before the cultivation
can be commenced.
The seed need very little CO lg, and
il to be sown by hand Ce uuet be
taken to run the burrows ou. cry snail
low in order to avoid covering too deep.
One OF the advantages in using the drill
in planting is that the seed can be dis
tributed more evenly in the rows and be
covered at more uniform depth, two
important items in securing good, even
stand. When the seed is sown by hand
it will aid in securing quicker germina-
tion II the seed is moistened and allowed
to stand twelve hours before planting.
Have the rows about three and half
feet apart, so as to give plenty of room
to cultivate. One advantage in planting
an early variety is that it will ripen, and
can be worked up out of the way before
the fall work, like sowing wheat and
cutting up the corn, becomes pressing.
In many cases it will pay to roll the
ground after planting the seed, as it
helps to make a better termination, and
also fixes the soil in better condition
for commencing the cultivation. As with
nearly all other crops the harrow can
nearly always be used to good advantage
in commencing the cultivation. In no
other way can the weeds be destroyed
aud the soil be fined so close around the
plants. Often two harrowings can be
given with profit and then the cultivator
can be used. Iu an average season two
harrowings and three good civilizations
will be all that is necessary; as often the
plants make a sufficient growth to shade
the ground, very little cultivation will
be needed.
1t is the early cultivation that is the
most important, aud the more thorough
ly this is given the better will be the re-
suits. Care should be taken not to al
low the plants to stand too thick. st.

CULTIVATION AND MOISTURE.

Moisture is one of the essential and
most necessary requirements for plant
growth, but from the general habit of
relying upon seasonable rains for a sup
ply too little attention is often given to
conserving and making use of what the
ground already contains. Thus the diff
ference between waiting for rain in a
dry time and "catching" the moisture
by frequent cultivation, which without it
would escape from the soil into the at.
mosphere, may often be measured by the
difference between success and failure.
There are but few seasons so unfayor-
able from drouth that a stirring of the
soil frequently while it continues will
not greatly mitigate its effects. By this
process moisture is saved to the plants
in two ways: 1. If cultivation is begun
in early morning the dewfall of the pre-
vious night is captured and partly saved.
2. The moisture remaining deeply in
the soil in dry time is always ascend
ing towards the surface, to be quickly
evaporated into the air. Hence the
hard, dry crust always found at such
times where the ground is left undis-
turbed. BY often pulverizing the sur
face mulch is found which arrests the
moisture ascending by capillary attraction
and holds it at the right point to be alb
sorbed by the roots of plauts. New

Swearing Witnesses In Jauan.

A Japanese journal, describing the
manner In which witnesses are sworn and
evidence taken in native courts Of
justice, says that with the Japanese any
thing to which a man affixes his seal is
considered more sacred than what he
may say. Hence each witness is required
TO make declaration to the effect that
with a mind free from bias in favor Of or
against either Of the litigating parties,
and with perfect fairness, he will give
evidence, and after this has been read
out by the Recorder of the court and
handed to the witness in the form Of a
document, the latter is expected to affix
his seal to it. The same plan is adopted
with the statement of facts which, in the
course of the examination he undorgoes,
witness makes in court. The purport
of his evidence is written out 10y the Re-
corder, and before leaving the court he
is required to make what corrections arc
necessary to render the written state
ment trustworthy record of his evidence
and TO guarantee its correctness by afiix-
ing his seal. Though this process occu-
pies good deal Of time, it preoludes
the possibility of the evidence given
being incorrectly reported, which, in
trials where the decision of the court de-
pends largely on oral evidence, Is a
matter of much moment.-London
Times.
