NAVAL NOTES.
(Fron the Washington Starr

Mr.. Herbert, chairman OF the
House naval affairs committee, has
reported favorably to the House a
bill which extends to naval officers
the privilege of retiring from the
service after thirty years, in the
discretion of the President. The
purpose of the bill is to place naval
officers on the same footing in this
respect as officers of the army.
Passed Assistant Paymaster Har-
rv R. Sullivan of the navy, who is
under suspension for negligence In
the performance of his duties, has
filed petition with Secretary Ira
CIV for a further remission OF the
penalty imposed upon him.
The gunboat Machias, now near
ing completion at the Bath iron
works, will probably be assigned to
duty on the Asiatic station after
the close of the p"yal review. The
Chinese station IS pretty we'll de-
pleted of naval ships, and the only
ship of modern design now there is
the little gunboat Petrol, whose ser
vice is confined almost exclusively
to the Chinese rivers.
Commander George NJ. Book has
been detached from duty at the
navy yard, New York, February
2S. and ordered to command the
Alert on the Asiatic station pei
steamer of the 14th inst. from San
Francisco. Commander Book was
formerly in command of the Plnta
in the Arctic station and was court
martialed for being absent without
leave. His offense consisted Of
coming to Washington to urge the
repair of his ship, instead of max
ing his wishes known to the de-
partment in writing by mail. Since
his conviction he has been promot
ed and his present detail is regard
ed as a further condonement of hi:
lapse in official etiquette.
CHANGES IN THE NAVY.
The Naval Register for 1S9;
shows that during 1892 there were
in all thirty-seven designations
and thirty-three retirements. The
retirements included one rear ad
miral, one commodore and two
captains. One officer was wholly
retired. Death carried off twenty

a NilSnr'R Inst Wish.

A Vienna correspondent of the Lon
don Daily News tells the following
story of Roumanian miscr: "A Greek
died in the small town of Caracal, hav-
ing always lived on the aims of his COM
patriots. Before dying he made his
wita swear that she would bury him in
the dirty old overcoat which he wore
every day. The poor woman had to ask
the Greeks of Caracal to help her to pro-
vide the costs of the funeral. A good
hearted Greek went to see her in her
affection, and, pointing to the body,
said he would give her better coat to
bury the man in. Then she told him OF
the dead mans last wish. The Greek,
whose suspicious were awakened, told
her that she should certainly not part
with the body before she had well OK
amincd the coat, for there must be some
particular reason for the request. Tho
widow unpiclied the lining of the over
coat and found thirty-nYc thousand
francs in bank notes which the miscl
wished to take into the grave will
him."

ONE KIND or SAVING.
A Thrifty woman's Economy That Comes
Exceedingly High.

Exceedingly High.
A thrifty woman had joined one OF
those cooperative saving societies;
whose earthly function is to protect its
patrons against extortionate prices by
securing to them reduction of ten per
cent. at the stores belonging to the
combination, says the Detroit Free
Press. She was enthusiastic over the
opportunities for economy the scheme
presented and her husband was rather
disposed to be skcptical on the subject.
At the close of the first week she had
q talk with him.
"You don't believe In the societyp"
she said, tentatively.
mot altogether" he confessed,
"Well, whether you do or not, I've
saved ten dollars this week; over one
dollar and fifty cents day for six days"
"Ilow?' he inquired.
"Dy using my tickets, of course.
bought one hundred dollars worth of
things and only paid ninety dollars for
them"
"Ah," he said, beginning to figure.
ayes, did, and next week III save
twenty-five dollars, or over four dollars
q day." and she was more enthusiastic
than ever.
mo you won't, my dear" he said,
cmphatically. You are altogether too
economical. This business Of spending
two hundred and twenty-five dollars to
save twenty-five won't work, You
throw that ticket in the fire and begin
to rctrcnch. and reform in some other
direction, please" and she began to cry.

southern farmers would doubtless al
this time be follow ,ng diversified syss
tenn Of farming that would have
brought them comfortable liv-
ing and pleasant surroundings, even
II II had not brought them very
great riches. 1t is not necessary
TO paint their present condition, the
cumulative effect of the "cotton-and-
corn" system that has been so persist
emily followed for these many years.
II is necessary though that we should
give serious consideration TO the
future The errors Of the past we
must suffer for to be sure, but they
should be fraught with teachings for
the future. The best lessons of life
are TO be learned from our failures,
Success is not the only teacher. We
should all prefer to sit at the feet Of
success as teacher rather than fall
ure, but frequently we have no option
in the matter.
Is it not true that by far the large
majority have steadily been growing
poorer-for number of years-poorer
in purse and in the quality of their
land. Some moralsts urge that the
farmers are poorer, most of them, sim
ply because they are and have been
eXtravagant and wasteful--wasteful
not only of the money they have made,
but constantly wasteful of their time
waste that might be converted into
money The moralist claims if the
farmers would only choose to have il
so. While there may be some truth in
this allegation and in reference to u
certain class of farmers, mostly ten
ants farmers, it does not embody the
chief reason for the poverty of south
ern farming.
1t comes near the truth to say that
too many farmers are engaged in pro.
ducing one or two products to the neg.
lect of other things that enter into Il
diversified and prosperous system 81
agriculture They are attempting to
carry special farming on soils that
are now almost worn-out Gf not en-
tirely SOY from having their humus OK
hausted. This they must learn sooner
or later can not be done.
This great truth is to be learned by
our southern farmers. When coun
try or section of country has ex
hausted the resources of system Of
agriculture based almost entirely upoi
hoed crops, the next step involves ;
change to pastoral farming" II
other words, grass and stock must, il
great measure, be substituted for cot
ton and corn in the south, if we would
see our lands restored to condition
that invests them with any agricul
tural value. Let us consider this mat
ter, for it involves question of much
more significance to the masses thar
any involved in politics. 1.-THE mex

HERE AND THERE.

Farmers need q better knowledge

mands of nature.
Better make two loads than over.

ing to their kind.
"A Shelby county (Ky.) farmer,
Stewart Johnson, takes the honors by
selling the product of five-acre tobac
co patch for $3.50.
"A machine has been patented by
which corn in the ear is split into silver
from end to end, and in this form is
much better than whole for feeding to
catJle.
Experiments prove that corn is a
better and cheaper feed for pigs than
cotton seed. Boiled cotton seed is bet
ter than raw. Raw seed alone proves
to be destructive to the health of the
pigs.
We would like to see every farmer
plant at least a small patch of arti.
chokes. The same can be enlarged tc
any extent at very little cost from seed
grown at home. Plant as soon as you
can get your ground ready.
Farmers raise annual crops of corn
and make no complaint of the care and
labor required for success, but as soon
as one suggests to them as much care

usually, five or ten times as much per
acre.
When some plants are allowed to
ripen their seed. their-worlS is finished.
If prevented from maturing their seed
an effort will be made to produce more.
String beans have been picked from
the plants from the time the pods APP
peared until frost by gathering all pods
in the green condition, and allowing
none to ripen.
Wheat bran is an indispensable
feed for butter cows. Even on the

tanned that the heaviest bran is not
better butter producing food than that
which is light 1t should not weigh
more than eighteen to twenty pounds
per bushel.
On some farms clover continues in
considerable amounts to the third anj
even fouruHyear after seeding. 1t Is
not properly perennial, but only an ar.
rested biennial, the plant not dying
until it has perfected seed. 1t is worth
trial whether by preventing seeding
long enough seed may not be at las!
produced that will be truly biennial.
Ten hens in house that gives
them plenty of room will lay more eggs
than twenty that are crowded.; hence
one not only gets fewer eggs wher
there are too many hens together, but
the cost of the food is greater and the
amount of work increased. Trying tC
do too much on limited area has
caused many failures, and the proper
plan is TO keep but q few hens rathe,
than too many.

Fowls In Stables.

1t is safe to say that eight-tenths OF
the farmers allow their hers free
range of the barns, and provide no
other shelter for them. SO far rs the
hens are concerned they will get along
all right and will probably do as well
under such circumstances as if pro-
vided a sep rate house, for awhile al
least, but if allowed to roost in the
barn continually they will soon have
it so filthy that it is hardly fit for the
stock to enter, let alone mankind.
The whole place becomes infested
with vermin, and can not be entered
without a great deal of annoyance, be.
sides we have known of horses bccom.
ing so literally covered with lice that
they were almost reduced to state OF
worthlessness, and they once become
infested, it is almost impossible to ever
get rid of them. Why not now, before
the breeding season opens, provide the
fowls with separate house and begin
anew. This need not be expensive, and
any farmer can put up the building
himself, SO that the expense will be
very small. Farmers Home Journal.

Don't Buy n Flag That Has Not the

Persons who are disposed to purchase
expensive American flags should count
the stars, says the Upholstercr. The
patriotic wife of wcll-known news
paper man greeted her husband at the
dinner table the other day with the
gleeful assurance that she had secured
splendid bargain" She had bought
handsome silk flag, worth perhaps
five or six dollars originally, for two
dollars.
"Therc must be something the mat

"Oh, no." quickly responded his wife.

"Did you count the stars?" asked her
husband.
mo, did not" answered the wife,
somewhat obviously.
The stars on the flag were counted
and it was found that they numbered
thirty-eight; it lacked just six stars Of

SOUTHERN FARMING.
Reflections of the Hour for Intelligent
Farmers.

Reflections of the Hour for Intelligent
Farmers.
The intelligent farmers of the south
are no doubt as much puzzled at this
time in regard to the setting of the
years crop as they have been any time
in the past twenty years. To the very
large majority of farmers there has
been little profit in their last years
work. We have nodoubt it is true that
for one who made any clear money"
there were a dozen who failed to come
out square on the years work. Among
the large number of tenant farmers
what per cent probably did even as
well as this. How many by close
economy managed to live and find at
the end Of the year that they had not
increased their Indebtedness? We have
made it business to question Farmers
of every degree from the one-ox tenant
farmer up to the six, eight or ten-horse
farmer in our section, and the burden of
the testimony elected from them will
easily sustain the statement that NO
year in the past ten has given so little
reward for their work as '92 has done.
In the majority of cases the yield was
considerably below the average and
yet at the same time the prices re-
ceived for their products, such as
they had to sell was also below
the average. For the majority the
advance in the price of cotton came
after they had disposed of one-half or
threc-fourths of what was made. The
small farmer derived very little benefit
from the advance. Those that were in
the hands of their creditors, 30 to
speak, were forced to sell just as fast
as it was picked and ginned (surely
''the destruction of the poor is their
poverty"). A very large number OF
farmers would have held their early
pickings of cotton through September
and October, the past season, if they
had had an option in the matter, but
as they had made their obligations fall
due in those months they were forced
to SELL
OF course farming is done at great
disadvantage under mortgage" but
it seems that much of the farming OF
the south can only be done in that way.
This is the misfortune of our farmers
rather than any one fault. But fol-
