A TIMELY SUGGESTION.

For the Southern People, the most
precious fruit of Democratic success
IS the liberty to work out their own
material and political salvation with
out restraint or interference. OF
course, there is a corresponding re-
sponsibility imposed upon the South
ern people, of which we have no fear
that they will fail to be mindful. This
winter many, if not most, of the
Southern Legislatures will be in
session-many of them elected in
November. Upon these Legislatures
will be imposed the duty of making
the most of the opportunities for pro-
gress and Improvement which re-
suit the November elections through
out the Union has opened to them.
The true policy of the South is to
invite both capital and immigration
from the North, and to offer every
lnduCement to both to come and take
up residence in the South.
The Northern immigrant who set
ties IN the South to-day no longer
comes with sentiments antagonistic
to the sssocial institutions of the
South, for the social institution" which
provoked his antagonism has disap-
peared. He comes to identify him
self with the people and with the soil,
and to bring with him his habits oil
industry, of enterprise and thrift, and
his ideas and habits of law abiding
American citizen. He is a settler
infinitely to be preferred to the class
OF immigrants from abroad which Ger.
tain European governments are only
too glad to dump upon our soil, and
whose coming it would seem wiser
policy to discourage than invite.
The practical legislation in the
South which is needed to foster and
encourage the right sort of immigra
ton, and with it the investment O
Northern capital, should have for it:
primary objects the establishment o
good roads, good schools and the
prompt and orderly administration o
justice. More than any other three
things within the power of a State
Legislature, to foster and promote
these three things are necessary tc
build up and secure the materia
prosperity of a community. Coco
newspapers and good churches vii
inevitably follow along, and will dc
the rest without the help of the Legis
lature. e.-Baltimore Sun.

Shipbuiidlng at Newport News

The arrival of tho Morgan Lines
new steel steamer Ell Rio at New York
has directed renewed attention to the
great shipbuilding plant at Newport
News. from the yards of which the
vessel was launched on November 26.
El Rio has a displacement of 4,500
tons. or l.000 tons more than that of
the City of Peking, of the Pacific Mail
Line, which has heretofore been
reckoned the largest American-built
steamer. The New York Times,
giving a description of Ell Rio, says
she looks more like a trans atlantic
liner than any other American-built
steamer sailing out of this port
+! Cid. sister ship and OF like
dimensions, is now on the stocks at
Newport News, and every vessel of
this class sent out from the yards is an
advertisement of the capacity OF the
plant and the excellence of the work
manship. There is a constant demand
for such vessels and there will be no
lack of orders to keep the yards busy.
1t is but step from the building OF
fine freight steamers, to the building
of fine ocean liners, and NirglnlaIfs
may confidently indulge the hope that
the lower James will yet become the
American Clyde. - Lynchburg l"-

tn ere was indifference in the locality on &C
count of the uncertain yield, caused by
blight, scab and rot of the potato. Bor
deaux mixture was recommended as best to
use for potato troubles. Experiment sta.
tions report increased yield where ii has
been used. Fungicides are necessary as
preventive of blight. The cause OF scab
is not understood other than certain condi-
tons of the soil induce its appearance, such
as excess OF barn yard manure and clayey
lands No specific remedy has yet been
found. Late crops are more affected than
early. Level culture is preferred on light
soils, and ridge on heavy or clay lands. A
preference is given to sod land turned under
in the spring after grass has well started
Plant four inches deep and in rows two an d
a-half feet apart, so vines will cover the
ground. Leave the land in ridges until
potatoes commence to FORM then cultivate
to level, which etfectually kill the weeds.
