A Word for Apples.

DR.. G. r. Searles, of Brooklyn, N.
Y, thus discourses on the apple as
medicine: ''Thc apple is such COM
mon fruit that very few persons arc
familiar with its remarkably etticacl-
Gus medicinal properties. Everybody
ought to know that the very best
thing they can do is to eat apples just
before retiring for the night. Persons
uninitiatcd in the mysteries of the
fruit are liable to throw up their hands
in horror at the visions of dyspepsia
which such suggestion may summon
ND. but no harm can come to even Il
delicate system by the eating OF ripe
and juicy apples just before going to
bed. The apple is an excellen BRAIN
food, because it has more phosphorlc
acid in easily disgestible shape than amy
other vegetable known. 1t eXcltes the
action of the liver, promotes sound
and healthy sleep, and thoroughly dis
infccts the mouth. This is not all: The
apple agglutinates the surplus acids OF
the stomach, helps the kidney sccre-
tons and prevents calculus growths,
it obviatcs indigestion and IS one OF
the best prcventivcs known OF diseases
of the throat Everybody should be
familiar with such knowledge, and
hope YOU will help disseminate it. In
addition, next to the orange and the
lemon. it is the best anditotc for the
thirst and craving of the person adj
dicated to the alcohol or the opium
habit

How Cotton Seed May be Utilized.

Iwish to make a practical sugges-
ton that if promptly acted upon by
those having hogs to fatten, will save
thousands of dollars tothe State within
the next sixty days. Contrary to pre-
vailing opinion, cotton seed, ifproperly
mixed with other food, SO as to make
properly balanced ration, is the
cheapest hog food we possess and per-
fectly safe. They are to be found on
every farm and are now being sold at
one-half their value considered as a
stock food, as compared with the mar
ket value of corn. There isan abund-
ant crop of sweet potatoes, which can
neither be marketed nor preserved to
advantage. Cotton seed and sweet
potatoes mixed in proportion of one OF
the former to three of the latter, and
boiled together will give a hog food
superior in every respect to corn and
absolutely safe. To those not having
potatoes and useing corn as sole fat
tening ration, I would suggest to mix
cotton seed and corn bushel for bush
ell and grind together Or cook. Fed
according to either menthood every
bushel of cotton seed is worth to the
farmer as much as a half bushel of
corn, or at the present price of corn 35
cents per bushel, while their present
market price is less than half. Crltl-
cisms of above suggestions will be
cheerfully and scientifically discussed.
HELPER
The above suggestion comes from
the Columbia State and we give 1t to
our readers for what it is worth. 1t
would be advisable to try it carefully
at first, until assured of its value: II
true it is of great Advantage to the farm

Slain on the Road.

Madison L. Connell, we'll known and
respected farmer of the Ariel neighbor-
hood, about seven miles from Lake
City, was, about 6 o'clock Friday eve.
ming, waylaid and killed on the public
highway, within half q mile Of his
home. When found at midnight he
was quite dead and partially burned,
bis clothing having been fired by the
charge that took his life. He had been
at work at neiahbor's house during
the day, and was returning home. The
assassin, who was probably secreted In
the bushes bordering the roadside
where Mr.. Connell body was found.
shot him twice. The body was not re.
moved until after the inquest, which
was held Saturday. There is no clus
to the perpetrstor of the dreadful deed.
If suspicion rests upon any one 1t Is
withheld. Over the deed so fearful,
and the manner Of its plishmens
so horrible, there is considerable ex.

Deaths From Snakes In India.

A picturesque but decidedly uncom-
Portable aspect of India is presented by
the annual return of the number of
deaths for which wild beasts and
snakes are responsible, says the Man
chester Guardian. In the official year
1893, 2,SO4 persons were killed by saw
age animals, as against 1858 in the
preceding twelve months. These
figures have very formidable appear
ance, but when the vast population OF
the Indian Empire is remembered 1t
will be seen that the proportion is not
more than one per rs, 900. The deaths
from snake bite numbered q, 213, a
considerable increase on the fatalities
from this cause in the preceding year,
when 19,025 deaths were registered.
So also with regard to the killing of
cattle there is an increase, the figures
being sc, ,253 in 1893 and 81, ,66S in 1892.
The tigers are responsible for the des-
truction of IL, $40 cattle in Assam and
of S,716 in Bengal, while leopardS
killed 1O,359 cattle in Bengal and
7,765 in Madras. There were, Of
course, reprisals, for Is, 800 wild beasts
were slain. and the slayers received
Rs. 1O4, $40 in reward for their exer-
tons. The figure includes 1857 tigers
and 4, ,OSs leopards whose enterprising
careers were thus ended. The war
against snakes has resulted in the ex-
termination of III, 100 of these foes of
man. The number killed in the prev
ious year was s4,7S9. The number
killed in the previous year was va saz
from a grateful government. The
mere statement of these figures may
help us to realize some disagreeable
conditions of daily existence in Hin
doostan, all the more disagreeable if,
as has been often limited, deaths from
snake bite" sometimes covers poison
by q mans nearest relations.

COTTON PLANTERS ASSOCIATION.
An Organization National In It's Scope.
Formed by Southern Growers.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Nov. 14.-The
cotton growers convention reassem-
bled today and organized an associa-
ton to be national in its scope for the
better protection of the planters in
| tereStS.
The committee on statistics was in
structcd to obtain and arrange for
the use of the convention official sta
tistics of cotton. the prices for the
past ten years, etc. The president of
the convention, Commissioner Lane
of Alabama, read a statement show
ing by the census returns that resolu-
ions on the part of the planters to re-
strict acreage have been followed by a
decreased output of cotton. The res
olutions of the committee continued,
with special resolutions subsequently
offered and adopted by the conven-
ton to cover the following subjects:
/. Reduction of cotton acreage and
increased attention to the production
of cereals.
3. Greater attention to stock and
cattle raising.
3. Encouragement of manufacture
ing in the South by exempting manu-
factories from taxation for period
of ten years.
4. Encouragement of immigration.
The resolution advises that large plan
tations be divided into small farms
and the latter be sold to bona fide
home seekers.
5. Recommending that cotton be
withheld from sale. by farmers who
are not in debt to their factors and
that it be held for rise which may
reasonably be expected if present
heavy receipts are appreciably re-
duced."
6. The organization of the Cotton
Planters Association of the United
States of America to meet at least
twice q year and to consist of four
delegates from each Congressional
District in the cotton growing States
and three delegates at large from each
State appointed by the Governors of
such States, irrespective of party pref
erencc, said association is to hold its
first meeting in Jackson, Miss, the
second Wednesday in January, 1895.
T. Cotton seed trusts are condemned.
s. Congress is petitioned to pass the
anti-option bill.
9. Congress is requested to refund
the cotton tax collected in 1S66-67.
The convention then organized the
new association by electing officers to
serve until the January meeting as
follows: Governor James Stone of
Mississippi, president; Hon. j. o.
Waddel of Georgia and Commissioner
of Agriculture, vice president; Robert
K. Eckberger of Alabama, secretary,
and Prof. James Smith of Georgia,
treasurer. The chairman of the con-
vention was requested to issue an ad-
dress to all business interests asking
cooperation in obtaining the objects
of the association.
The following resolution was also
adopted: Resolved, That the honest
conviction of this convention as prac-
tical cotton growers is that the esti-
mates that are being sent by the cot
ton exchanges in reference to the crop
are excessive and it is the belief of
this conviction, based upon practical
observation and the best statistical in
formation, that the present crop will
not exceed s, 500, 900 bales.
The convention then adjourned
sine die.

Clevelnpd Dom fl dent:

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1O.@President
Cleveland Is more silent, IT possible,
since the election than be was before,
and declines to talk as freely as former
ly on politics With his cabinet advisers.
He Is working hard on bis annual mes
sage, and remains at Woodley, where
his privacy Is not disturbed. Some of
the cabinet officials want to 90 some
talking, and are kept from doing so by
the president, who has evidently init
mated pretty strongly to the secretaries
that he does not care to have anything
said by any one connected with the aG-
ministration regarding the result of
the recent election.
This is more than irksome to Secre-
talies Smith, Herbert and Carlisle,
whose hot southern bloed boils at the
criticisms passed upon the president
and the charge from one promt-
nent Democratic leader after another
throughout the country that the presi.
dent is responsible for the general aud
overwhelming defeat of the Democ-
racy. To those with whom they feel
they can talk they are eloquent 10 the
defense of the president, maintaining g
that the responsibility for the party 5
disaster is due to the bad lea iership
and bad faith of the Democrats In con.
gress, particularly in the senate.
A gentleman connected with the ad-
ministration and very close to Mr.
Cleveland, said that MIR. Cleveland
cared nothing for what the politicians
chose to say, because he knew that the
people did not blame him for the failure
to carry out their verdict at the polls
in 1892, and that their reb1ke this year
was not intended for him, but for the
men who bad refused to follow his
leadership. and whom he himself was
forced to rebuke for their failure to
obey the mandate of the electors.
Mr.. Cleveland, he said. felt mere
than ever that he was the president oil
the people, and that he owed nothing
to the politicians, and that If they have
been shipwrecked after refusing to fol-
low the course he was ordered to sal!
by the people, it did not reflect upon
him, and could in no manner iDjure
him in the esteem of the great plass OF
American voters.
