THE STREAM OF LIFE.

Like small streamlet on mountain side.
A white thread glancing In the summer sun,
Lightly down leaping with joyous spring.
So passes happy childhood's playful hour.
Next through green dells and meath o'ershad-
owing crags.
The growing stream with Needless flow winds
on,
Now gladly lingering round some glowing isle
That smiles with heavenly beauty and allures
With promise of perpetual delights;
Now fercely dashing down some rough cas-
cade,
Where rushing waters split on hostile rocks,
Spouting aloft the irdcscent spray
Drifted In sunless clefts by swaying winds;
So pass the years of youth. Our ripper age
Is like the broadened rivers stately march,
Whose current slackens, yet admits no pause.
But passes field and coppice, tower and town,
Not wholly 'scaping from defilng stains,
Yet toiling onward restlessly. Adown
Its smooth yet ever sliding stream we haste,
Nor mark the progress of its quiet speed,
Till, faster rushing as it nears the end,
1t sweeps us onward In resistless course
Through the torn rapids of disease and pain,
Till, punging down the cataract of death,
We glide into vast and unknown space
The boundless ocean of eternity.

Hunting with a whip.

The following tall story comes from
Middletown. Conn: While a resident
of that town was driving along conn
try road at the edge of wood his dog
flushed a couple of cartridges. The
birds burst out of the brush with a
whir, flying side by side, and as they
were passing over the hunters head he
made a vicious cut with his whip at
them, and according to the legend the
whip hit one of the birds and broke it's

Vast Power of the Atmosphere.

Somebody has made the calculation
that, taking the quantities roughly and
in round numbers, the atmosphere
weighs about ton to every square
foot of the earth's surface, 25,000,000
tons per square mile, or 5000, 900, OOO,-
ooo,oOO tons on the total of 200,0O0,OOO
square miles; and its energy is that due
to the motion of this inconceivable
mass, at velocities varying all the way
from the slightest zephyr to the hurri-
cane and the cyclone, rushing over the
prairie or along the surface of the sea
at more than one hundred miles an
hour Again, according to this authori-
ty, cubic mile of air, weighing about
ten billion pounds, develops, at the
rate of motion of the cyclone, some
1000, 600, 1000 "foot-tons" of energy,
and if all were employed at such rate
for the performance of work, useful or
destructive, this number of foot
pounds would be equivalent to more
than 100000, 900, 900, 900 horse power

FARMER AND PLANTER.
The SOUTHERN FARMER.
Some Unpleasant Truths with the Remedy
Suggested.

Some Unpleasant Truths, with the Remedy
Suggested.
Mr. Geo. X. Holmes, the census ex-
pert, tells some unpleasant truths asto
the actual condition OF the southern
farmer, in the September number of
the Annals of the American Academy
of Political and Social Science. His
paper, which is entitled 1.-THE Poems of
the South" shows that the farmer is
held in form of bondage by he mer-
chant. This bondage is one of debt.
How it grew up is explained as follows
by Mr.. Holmes;
"The planters, their sons and their
comrades returned from the camp in
poverty, worn out, dispirited, hopeless
Of the future, and dazed with the col
lapse Of their dream. Their first con-
Germ was food and the strict necessa-
ries of life, which they must produce,
or borrow from those who had not lost
all of their wealth and credit. Large
plantations could not be cultivated as
of yore for want of equipment, and a
subdivision into tenancies was the only
course.
Farmers who owned the farms that
they cultivated and landlords alike, had
to obtain from merchants the supplies
of food, clothing and farm equipment
that were needed, and those on credit,
giving in return pledges of the crop
to come, out of which the debts must
be paid. The tenants, even less pre-
pared to choose, adopted the same sys-
TEN.
"The merchants then took the helm.
Such crops as they could most readily
market must be produced under their
orders, regardless of the fact that they
might not be the ones most advantage
Gus to their debtors. The kind of crop
that best accorded with this require
ment in the cotton regions was cotton.
and it was demanded in quantities pro-
portionate to the indebtedness that
was allowed to accumulate. The sale
of the cotton, too, was taken charge
of by the merchant. His cry for cotton,
and more cotton, to keep pace with
the indebtedness has led to an increase
in the production of this fiber since the
war so enormous that the north,
ignorant of the real situation, has
pointed to it as an evidence of the
superiority of the free over the slave
labor Of the blacks. But the situation
is not misunderstood in the south. The
merchants who advance plantation
supplies have replaced the former mas
tiers, and have made poems of them and
of their former slaves.
Every crop of cotton is mostly con-
sumed before it is harvested, and after

Pertinent Questions.

Colman's Rural World asks the fol.
lowing timely questions:
Are we as an agricultural people try.
ing to do too much, or, in the vernacu-
lar of the day, trying to bite off more
than we can masticate?
Is it not possible that we cultivate too
much land; that we pillow and harrow
and sow, and then reap and thresh and
market too much wheat, oats, corn and
the like.
In the irrepressible conflict between
buying our farms and paying for them;
between owning our farms and getting
rich off them; is the return compen-
sation for the unceasing toll and labor.
and sthe amending care, anxiety and
worry?
Were we to raise half our usual crops
of wheat and corn and cotton, is it not

ply demands for single products THAI

ply demands for single products thai
meet with ready and profitable sales.
This system has become so common
and successful that there are localities
where nothing but one special product
is cultivated, as potatoes, onions,
celery, poultry villages, fruit planta-
tions, dairies congregated around
cheese factory or creamery, tlocks of
lambs only near good shipping points.
And this special farming is made all
the more possible by excellent facili-
ties for cheap transportation. Celery
is sent all over the south from Indiana
and Michigan; hay goes the same way
a thousand miles; onions are sent from
New York and Ohio all over
the country and to foreign
lands; watermelons from Georgia go
all over the north; peaches from
Delaware and Maryland, and the earli-
est ones from central Georgia, find
purchasers everywhere; and so 1t is all
through the list of most important
products. And the time has come
when this method must be followed by
every farmer who may have the facili-
ties for production or transportation.
There is no risk of OVERRIDING it, the
consumption is always ahead of pro.
duction and always will be in such
cases as require skilled management
The above remarks, extracted from
the Indiana Farmer, though addressed
chiefly to farmers of the northern sec
ton of the country, are replete with
suggestions to farmers of the south
also. Our farmers must select some
"side" crop to which he will give more
than ordinary attention and make it
money crop. Some will choose melons,
others Irish potatoes, others cabbages;
some pork, some mutton, some butter,
some beef, many hay; others sugar
cane, others ground peas, and so on.
1t is practical, the thing can be done
