Notwithstanding the depressed con-
dition of business, there il decided
movement in the direction Of improv-
ed methods. In the scientific world
the greatest strides have been made in
the employment of electricity and
from the great advance made In the
last few yeara it is reasonable to ex-
pect that it will become the great mo-
tor of the world, utilizing the wind
and the streams to generate it. In
agriculture the tendency is to make it
truly Science which by the appllca-
tion of business methods will enlarge
its benefits to mankind. The trend is
to secure the economy of labor, time,
and space in the. culture and handling
of farm products and the feeding OF
the soil and the plant. The Southern
Cultiyator, Atlanta, Ca, for over fifty
years has been laboring to secure a
more enlightened system Of Agricui-
ture. The June number Of the Guilt
vator will contain, in addition 10 its
various well-filled departments cover
ing every detail of effort on the farm,
a prize essay by w. n. Stone, of Geor-
gia, on "Intensive System Of Farming
orthe Best Method of Increasing the
Production Of Crops" The subject is
presented in an able manner, and in
its valuable suggestions on this theme
is worth the price of the paper for one
year.
Other prize essays of equal impor-
tance and value. will be given from
time to time, such as:
The Best Rotation Of Crops for Or
binary Farms, by w. t. stone, Of
Georgia

wheat VS.. Oats.

The wheat crop is good in Edgefield
county but the oat crop is very poor.
Thts reminds us Of the statement we
have seen published that wheat as a
forage crop has superseded oats and
even timothy hay in some sections. A
livery stable man from Kentucky, in
our town last week, remarked, that in
his country farmers had in many in
stances given mp other kinds Of forage
and hay for wheat and that it, wheat,
was considered even better than
timothy, the king of hay crops. He
said the wheat igeut when in the milk
and cured and baled. Some of our best
farmers agree ia this estimate of wheat
FOR bay and will try it rs such the
coming season. DIR. Chris. Williams Of
our suburbs, has experimental al
ready in this line and is enthusiastic
for wheat as against oats for forage
crop, and Chris. knows a good thing
when be sees it and sees it as soon as
any farmer in Ehgefleld county.

In discussing the democratic ways Of
the duke Engltshmen relate the story of
q stranger who desired to see the art
treasures Of Eaton Hall. He met an
elderly man walking about the grounds,
and from his dress, which was a semi
hunting costume and not too new,
Thought the man to be the retainer Of the
duke The stranger asked the man to
show him about the place, which the
person did, pointing out, explaining and
calculating with great patience. The
guide listened to the visitors comments
on the duke and his family with interest
and received with thanks a half sovereign
to requite him for his trouble. The next
day the visitor rode out to the hunt and
in the master of the hounds, who was
also lord lieutenant of the county and
duke of Westminster, he recognized his
guide Of the day before. 1t was sex-
planned by the enthusiastic. countrymen
of the duke that the reason the great
man did not decline the tip given him
BY the visitor was his fear of disconcert-
ing the stranger. It would have been so
utterly out Of character for an English
servant to decline money that the peer
would have been obliged to disclose his
identity to explain his refusal.

Lake Morat in Switzerland, has a

times every ten years. 1t is a pretty
lake. like most Of the sheets Of water in
that picturesque country, and its pecu-

June p, 1476. But the French say it
bushes for the conduct of the Swiss,
Who in that battle gave the Burgundians
no quarter. This year it was redder
than ever and had q sinister appearance
when the setting sun illumined its
waves.
This phenomenon. Of course has its
legend Tho old fishermen Of the lake,
WHO catch enormous fish called silure5
that weigh between % and 40 kilo-
grams, say. when they see the water Of
the lake rcddening, that il is the blood
