FARM Notes.
Winter Hauling Of Manure.

Unless manure is under shelter
the sooner it is spread on the fields,
the better. There is so much waste
of manure that is left out exposed
to the teaching caused by rain and
snow and the action of the sun and
wind that manure should not be
allowed to remain out. 1t is the
soluble parts that are of the most
immediate benefit to the growing
plants, and it is this that is the
most readily lost when the manure
is left lying out. The principal adj
vantage in rotting manure before it
is hauled out and spread is that it
is more readily fined, and can be
more thoroughly incorporated with
the soil. 1t is also in a more solu-
BILE condition, and the plants will
derive larger benefit from it. But
it requires time and work properly
to rot the manure before hauling
it out. Besides, there is more risk
of loss than when the manure is
hauled direct to the fields.
1t is not good plan if the health
and thrift of the stock are to be
considered to let manure accumu-
late in the stables or sheds. The
stables must be kept clean during
the Winter, and to do this the ma
nure must be thrown out regularly.
If the manure is to be rotted it
must be taken out of the sheds and
piled up. Then, to prevent it from
heating and burning, it must be
forked and turned over two or
three times while it is rotting. 1t
must be stored under shelter, or
good part of the soluble portions
will be washed out. One of the
principal advantages in hauling out
the manure as fast as tits made,
and spreading it on plowed ground,
is that the rains and snow will car
ry the soluble parts into the soil,
where it will be retained for the use
of the plants. AS ordinarily man
aged there is less loss of valuable
elements where the manure is APP
piled fresh from the stable than if
it is thoroughly rotted before apply
ing.
Manure leached or washed away
in the barnyard is lost, but in the
fields it is retained by the soil. 1t
will require rather longer time
for the manure to rot and all be-
come available when applied fresh
from the stables than if rotted by
piling up, but it will require less
labor, and there will be less waste.
The better and more economical
management is to haul the manure
direct to the fields. and scatter it
where it is wanted. Then it is
there, and no further handling is
necessary.

THE LIGHTS WENT OUT.
The Anderson-Press Libel Suit Stop
ped by a Lightning Flash.

The time in the city court yesterday
was occupied in hearing the libel suit for
damages of Mr. K. F. Anderson, former
master mechanic of the Central railroad,
against the Savannah Press. MIR. Ander-
son was removed from his position as
master mechanic of the Central about a
year ago by Supt, Kline. The Press pub
lished report to the effect that he had
been removed for receiving a bride from
Supt Ford of the South Bound railroad
for giving special attention to the work of
that road, which was then done in the
Central shops. Mr.. Ford was quoted as
authority for the report. AS a result MIR.
Anderson entered suit for $4,000 against
the Press and against Mr. Ford.
Mai. p w. Meldrim represented the
Press and h. r. Richards, Esq, Mr.. An
dersOn.
The principal line of defense announced
by major Meldrim was that the report
was true, and several witnesses were in
troduced in the effort TO prove this. MIR
Richards will endeavor to show through
the Central railroad officials and en-
ployes that a contract existed between
Mr.. Ford and Mr.. Anderson, by
which the latter was TO I'LL the
position of master mechanic of the South
Bound railroad for which he was to re-
celved $50 month, and that the only
money received by him from Mr.. Ford
was in accordance with this contract, and
also that malice existed on the part OF
Mr. Ford toward Mr.. Anderson, and that
the report of Mr.. Anderson's discharge
for bride taking was spread by him for
the pdrpose of iniuring Mr.. Anderson.
The case is an interesting one, and
especially so to the railroad people, to
whom Mr.. Ford and Mr.. Anderson are
both well known. Each sidc seems to
think that il has a strong case. The
hearing will be continued to-day.
IL was put stop TO shortly after
o'clock last night by the sudden going out
OF the electric lights, as a result OF the
heavy flash OF lightning just at that time.

Col Lester has been written to to find

srEvEDoREs ON THEIR MErT1E

They Propose to Put q Stop to the
Loading of Vessels by Captains
Contrary to Law.
The regular stevedores are preparing to
get after the masters of vessels who have
been loading without the Intervention of
a regularly licensed stevedore, as re-
quired by the ordinance, with a sharp
stick.
Several of them called upon Mayor
McDonough yesterday and had confer
ence with him upon the subject. They
advised that their remedy was to put the
offenders on the docket and have the
cases tried under the city ordinances.
The stevedores are required to pay
license of 800 each, and they do not pro-
pose to have their business taken away
from them by unlicensed parties They
refer especially to section 1867 of the city
code, which is as follows:
1T is the true intent and meaning of
the tax and revenue ordinances of the
city, as well as the ordinances in relation
to stevedOres and porters, that every per-
son competent to load and unload vessels
and stow the cargoes of the same, are
stevedores within the meaning of said
ordinances, and as such are subject
and liable to take out license as
residents or nor-residents as the
case may be, and that all persons not
so competent, but engaged in loading, UNI
loading and slowing the cargoes of YES
sells are porters within the true intent
and meaning of said ordinances, and are
liable and subject TO take out badges as
such"
The stevedores announced their inten-
ton of making a case sgainst the captain
of the next vessel loading without a
