Saving Pea Vine Hay.

"a Subscriber" in the Barnwell
People, says: CHOW for my plan for
saving pea vine hay. Three years ago
1 was cutting early in the morning,
when an old neighbor came over to
spend the day with me, and very soon
after the clouds looked very threaten
ing. I said to him that was afraid
that would lose my hay. He told
me to go and stack it. l said not
green. He said it would not hurt it if
stacked as he said. I went out and
piled it in piles, when there came a
right hard shower of rain. I said to
him then that my hay was gone, as
there was very heavy cloud coming
on behind the shower. He told me
to go and stack it. Well, I thought
that it would be worth nothing if
much rain came on it as it was, so |
went and stacked it while wet and
green, as it was cut in the morning,
and this was before noon. This was
in August, and in February following
I hauled it in, as bright and fine hay
as ever I saw, and have followed that
plan successfully ever since, with just
the pea vines, and when they are
mixed with grass, and have never had
any mouldy or dark hay since, and it
don't shed the leaves in handling.
THE PLAN.
Procure your pole same as for fod-
der, but in trimming leave about two
feet apart limbs two to three feet long.
Have your pole as high as you can
we'll throw the vines with forks.
Place brush or something under to hold
them eff the ground, then pack in be-
tween the limbs, letting the vines ex-
tend out over ends of the limbs. Keep
smooth on out edge, so as to turn
water. Fill your pole, covering top of
pole, and as they settle the limbs will
hold the vines up enough in centre to
admit enough air to cure the vines.
If there are any doubling Thomases,
as | was, all that l ask is trial.

once, and the monotony was varied by
lovely incident. AS We waited for
the conductor at a station Che had
stopped of to visit his family q young
couple came aboard in hurry. Be-
fore long, we learned that they had
eloped and were bound for Gretna
Green just over the State line, where
they didn't call for license and other
delays in marrying. They were great
ly fustered because the irate parent
was in pursuit. But finally the train
got away without the parent appear

it left the station; but the station you
know wasn't any kind Of racer. FL
nally the State line was passed and
the long desired town was reached, and
as we all alighted who do you suppose
appeared? None other than the irate
parent. His patient mule had gone
ahead, beaten the train, and there he
stood (the parent, not the mule,) a
conquering hero, ready to intercept the
two. We found he'd been waiting
nearly thirty minutes. /"

out of joint and that we are nearing a

out of joint and that we are nearing a
calamity. The same will apply if
these men were convicted through pre-
judice and chicanery. Corruption in
politics is a much louder complaint
throughout this land than was the
voice of jenkins as he went from man
to man showing his ear, and it must be
corrected or the calamity comes upon
US. The voice Of the loud-mouthed
adyenturer is easy to distinguish from
the earnest protests Of "the people"
against real grievances, and in all
justice and in all wisdom their demands
should receiva at least the thoughtful
attention of the thinking men of our
government.
While I know, from my own obser-
vation, that the demands Of mobs will
not do to cater to, for they are liable
to hang fellow to-day and build him
monument tomorrow, yet | doubt if
long continued appeal Of the masses
was ever far from the line Of justice
and right, and I doubt if their walls Of
wrong and oppression, continued for
length, were ever without good foun-
dation in fact. But after long suffer
ing, and with a patience that amounts
to prostration, they are liable to break
forth at last like raging volcano, un-
controlled and uncomfortable.
The "signs" warn us; let us heed
the warning and avert the calamity.

ANDERSON S. WEDNESDAY MORNING, AUGUST 16, 1893.

citizen of the South would get Mr..
McKinlcy's little book and read it.
It is by far the best and most grateful
statement of the race problem that has
yet been written. 1t is not only
instructive and entertaining, but reads
like an essay Of Maccaulay, and the
book will not be laid down until the
perusal is finished. General Fitzhugh
Lee said of it: "It is the best state
ment that I have ever read upon the
great subject it treats with so much
clearness ability. The work displays
mot only much historical research, but
great knowledge of the question, and
must draw the attention of all thinkers
to this great problem
The Boston 7raueler says: SIT is
an audacious, ingenious volume and
will well repay reading and provoke
thought, and Henry Stanley says /:
'The author is seer of a type rare
nowadays and handles his subject
wisely"
The price Of the book is so cents. !,
and can be had, I suppose, at the
book stores or from the publishers,
Ford, Howard & Hubert, New York.
I do not know Mr.. Mckinley nor
have I any interest in advertising his
book, but 1 sincerely believe that its
perusal will do more to direct public
opinion in the right channel than any
thing that has yet been written upon
the race. questionable greatest ques-
tion now before the American people,.

a Suggestion for o Poet.

Martin F. Tupper was at one time
immensely popular, both in England
and America. Grace Greenwood says
of his poetry that it was Of a "brief
though furious fashion," and she
goes on to illustrate his British ina
bility to take an American joke by a
story of his mystifcation by Senator
Tom Corwin.
One evening the two sat together at
public dinner, and Mr.. Corwin pro-
ceeded to discourse on the divine art
of poetry in manner delightfully."- alb
surd, but rather puzzling to Mr.. Tup-
per.
"Why, Mr.. Tupper," he asked, "do
you poets always make the heart the
seat of love? Now, I should locate
that passion in quite another organ
the liver.
"Why, bless your soul, Mr.. Corwin,
you're not speaking seriously"
Perfectly, my dear sir! For exam
pie, when young man is in love, his
heart is seldom affected, but his liver
always is. He loses his appetite. If
there are obstacles, he peaks and
pines. You surely have observed it.
Now, you poets ought to let the heart
alone and deal with the liver. |
would even have changes made in old
poems in accordance with physiologi-
cal truth.
"But, my dear, sir, what about the
rhyme and the rhy thm?''
"Oh, those little things could be
arranged. For instance, take the first
two lines Of Byron's The Maid OF
Athens
"Maid of Athens, ere we part,
Give, Oh Give me back my heart"
"Now, how simple the change and
how satisfactory;
"Maid of Athens, ere we sever,
Give, Oh! Give me back my liver"

Koi Nobori, or Carp Flag.
Southern Christian Adyoeate.

DEAR CHILDREN: Japan is a land Of
many curious and interesting customs,
and I want to tell you Of one in this
letter.
4 II you could stand on the second
story porch Of the house in which we
live in Kobe and look over the city,
you would see in all directions hum
dreds of fish swimming in the air.
Just as you would if you were to look
through the side Of aglass aquarium
at the fish and turtles mo ring about in
the water. In some places we see
only one fish, but in others there are
four orfve together, and even more.
Some Of them are very large, larger
than any living fish you have ever
seen, unless perhaps you have seen a
whale. such as swallowed Jonah. Just
to thu North Of our house we can see
great big fellow swimming in the air
by himself. He is about twenty feet
long, while Immediately in front are
four or five together, the smallest one
being about two feet long. If you
would look closely, you would notice
that the fish, although they seem to
be moving all the time, remain in
about the same position. They are,
all day and all night long, swimming
in the air but making no progress, and
the reason is that.they are tied to the
top Of a high pole, just like flag.
OF course these fish are not alive,
for you know that if they were they
would die just as soon as they were
taken out Of the water. They are Of
paper, and are made to resemble the
fresh water fish called "carp," or
"koi" in japanese. They have large
mouths, that are open all the time,
and the wind blowing into them keeps
them inflated, so that they look very
much like living fish. But the most
curious thing about this strange GUS
tom is that they are used to celebrate
the birth Of a boy baby in the house
over which they float. On the 10Th Of
every June, if little boy has come
into the family during the year, the
father and mother purchase one Of
these paper fish and tie it to a long
pole and let it foatin the air. In this
way they announce to the community
that they have had a son. If there
are more than one koi or. carp, then
they have been presented to the fam
lily by friends or by relatives.
There are two reasons why the carp
is used instead of some other kind of
fish. First, it is very strong fish,
being able to go far up the rivers, into
the mountains and over the rapids !;
and, secondly, the japanese people
think very highly Of it. / have been
told that the Chinese consider it a
sacred fish. And so, when the Japan
ese fathers and mothers hang out the
koi nobori, or carp flag, they not only
announce that they are the happy pos
SCISSORS of baby boy, but they also
express the wish that their little boy
may grow strong and be preserved to
them, and also that he may be good
and obedient son.
There is very pretty custom that
is used in celebrating the birth Of girl
babies in Japan, but as [ have written
you long letter tonight I will have
to tell you Of that some other time.
Your friend,
W. E. TowsoN.

IMPORTANCE OF TARIFF REFORM.

coming September, that we might en-

reform, which the true interests Of the
country clearly demand, which so large
majority Of the people, as shown by
tkcir suffragcs, desire and expect, and
to the accomplishment Of which every
effort Of the present Administration is

lost nothing of it's immediate and per-

The West Virginia Democracy and the
Registers Services
RECOGNIZED BY THE PRESIDENT

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 6.-The
recognition of the West Virginia
Democracy which the President ac-
corded to day in the appointment OF
Mr.. James B. fancy. Of the Wheeling
REGISTER, to the important post Of
United States Consul TO Belfast, gave
great satisfaction TO the Congressional
delegation, all of whom had been very
active in pushing his case, and the
West Virginia Democrats generally In
the city. As soon as the appointment
vas announced, just after noon, num-
Der OF congratulatory kilograms were
dispatched from here to the new consul.
Congressman Pendleton was well
pleased at the appointment, as be felt
that his outspoken and persistent advo-
cacy of Mr.. Taney's claims before the
President had had not a little to do
with the Presidents prompt and favor
able action. There was great number
OF candidates for the place, ali OF them
very strongly backed. Among them was
Mr.. Thos. j. keenan,, OF Pittsburg, who
had the backing of Mr.. Harrlty, Chair
man of the National Committee, and all
the Democratic hackers of Pennsylva-
MIA. The eonsulship to Belfast is one
of the most important in the con-
sular service, as the trade Of that city
with the United States Is enormous.
While the salary of the Consul is but
So, 600 year, he receives fees which
swell the annual income considerably.
1t will be remembered that Mr. fancy
had applied for the Liverpool Consul
ship. The President told the delega-
ton who presented his claims that that
place was set aside for Chairman James
Z. Neal OF Ohio, but indicated a desire
to betow any other good consular posi-
tion not yet disposed OF upon Mr.. fancy;
so he chose Belfast.
The gentleman whom Mr.. fancy will
relieve is Samuel G. Ruby, Of Iowa.
Other appointments made by the
President to-day are:
Alexander Mcdowell, OF Virginia, to
be Envoy Extraordinary and Minister
Plenipotentiary of the United States TO
Persia; Wallace s. Jones, OF Florida,
