ROTATION OF CROPS.
The Course Successfully Pursued at the
Georgia Experiment Station.

The Course Successfully Pursued at the
Georgia Experiment Station.
At the Georgia experiment station
the following system has been pursued
with substantially beneficial results:
The corn land of the previous year is
sown in oats, fertiling with highly
ammoniated fertilizer. The oats, when
cut, are followed Immediately by COW
peas, in the drill or broadcast, giving
about 200 pounds acid phosphate and
100 pounds kainit to the acre. The
peas are cut for hay, or part may be
picked, or, II preferred, all pasturcd.
just before, or soon after, q
killing frost, the pea stubble is turned
under with two-horse plow. In the
spring, this is fertilized and planted IN
cotton, and the following year this cot
ton land should be put in corn. by
this plan one-third of the land for the
main crops is each year devoted to
small grain and peas, one-third to cot
ton, one third to corn. The smaller
crops--that is, potatoes, forage crops,
vegetables, melons, orchards, ETC.
should together occupy space about
equal to one OF the main crops. Prac-
tically farm of 100 acres should be di-
vided about as follows: Small grain
and peas, 20 acres; cotton, 20 acres;
corn, 20 acres; permanent pasture, 20
acres; minor crops, that is, orchards,
vineyards, truck, garden and forage,
peanuts, potatoes, melons, chufas, etc.,
20ncres,
Immediately connected with the
proper order in which the different
crops should follow each other, is the
area to be allotted to each. The pros
perity and comparative independence
of the generality of farmers at this
date, is largely due to their conserva-
tive stand on this question the past
year. Throughout the south, except
rare instances, barns and storehouses
are we'll allsd. and though the price OF
cotton has been somewhat disappoint.

Catching Whales by Nets.

In New Zealand, where the old-fash-
ioned methods in use in most other
whale fisheries have been abandoned
in favor of nets, which are now used for
the capture in those waters of these
leviathans of the sea, the nets are made
of two-inch MANILA rope and are so
constructed that galvanized iron rings
take the place of the knots in the ordi-
nary nets. The mesh is six-foot one,
md the ropes forming it are spliced
into the rings. The nets are made in
nix sections, each ten fathoms square,
with two tcn-gallon barrels as floats
to each section. When setting the net
the sections are joined together with
line just strong enough to bear the or.
dinary strain to which they are liable
to be subjected, so that when whale
gets meshed he tears away the section
in which he is fast. While he is trying
to get rid Of the net the whaleboats,
which are always waiting, dart along.

Within the past few years very great
improvements have been made in spec.
tacles. Formerly when one desired to
see objects long way off, one pair OF
glasses was necessary, and to read or
examine objects close at hand another
kind was required. Latterly, glasses
are made in two sections, the upper be-
ing for distance and the lower portion
for nearby work. The lower halves
are set into the upper in nearly half
circle. This enables the wearer to use
the eyes directly in front and toward
the sides. Glasses cut in half, in
straight pieces, are much less agreea-
bic than those with the curved lower
sections. The use Of glasses is becom-
ing so general that it is no unusual
thing to see scores of children in school
wearing them. The Importance OF
properly fitted glasses cannot be over
estimated. Eminent authorities de-
clare that many cases of nervousness,
nervous prostration, insomnia, gem
eral breaking up Of the health and in
sanity are directly traceable to lift
ting glasses. This being the case, 1t
behooves those who wear these nee
essary aids to see that they are exactly
suited to their peculiar condition.-N.

ANTARCTIC ICE.
Il Differs Considerably from That OF the
Northern Regions.

Northern Regions.
The difference in the formation OF
Arctic and Antarctic ice, rs is well
known, is very great. While the north
ern bergs mostly consist OF large ice
mass running up into numberless tow
ers and arches resembling the noun
tain peaks which surround the glaciers
from which they were torn, the Ant
arctic berg arc solid masses of floating
ice, with perpendicular walls, and an
unbroken plateau on the top.
All showed plainly whether theywere
broken from the large southerly bar
rier or discharged from the glaciers OF
Victoria Land. All the barrier bergs
had very distinct blue lines across their
walls, indicating the annual growth by
snowfall. These lines were, of course,
not to be found on the glacier ice. The
latter also showed more likeness TO the
northern ice than did the former. The
peaks and towers of the Arctic icebergs
are supposed to be formed by the in
fuence of ocean currents wearing away
the softer part of the ice-mass under
water, until the natural law of grayita-
tion forces 1t to upset.
But why have the Antarctic iccbergs
a different appearance? 1t is certain
that in the Antarctic waters there are
nlso currents. Yet even icebergs that
have gone as far north as the south OF
New Zealand have all maintained the
marks of their Antarctic origin. | can
not see any other reason for this dis
similarity between the bergs OF the
north and those of the south but that
the Arctic icebergs, as rule, must pass
through cimes which in temperature
rapidly change from one extreme to
another, and the icebergs take much
longer time in floating southwark than
do the Antarctic icebcrgs in advancing
northward, and thus, as a rule, the
northern icebergs exist much longer
than those of the Antarctic-C. H.

broke out again. "Whats this? La
