In the fall Of 1898 a son of Mr.. 7. A
Mcfarland. a prominent merchant of
Live OAK, Suffer Co.. Cal. was taken
with very heavy cold. The pains in
his chest were SO severe that he has
spasms and was threatened with pneu-
monia. His father gave him several
large doses of Chamberldin's Rough Re-
NEEDY which broke up the cough and
cured him. Mr.. Mcfarland says when
ever his children have Group he invaria-
bly, gives them Chamberlain's Cough Re-
NEEDY and it always cures them. He
considers it the best cough remedy in
the market. For sale by T. J. Liable

Our Surplus Corn.

During the meeting of the Lou
isiana State Agriculture Society
at Lafayette we we're informed
that corn delivered on plantations
in that locality was selling at 10
cents per bushel, and that for lack
of markets and storage capacity
thousands of bushels of corn
were then in the field unharves-
ted. On the train coming from
Alexandria to Lafayette we also
learned from a travelling salesman
that he had on that morning con-
'tracted with one merchant at
Alexandria for the delivery at diff
ferent times during the spring sea-
son of 500 barrels of corn meal, to
be- furnished by the Little Rock
{ ARK, } Milling Company at $3.50
per barrel. Now, there is some
thing radically wrong when the
farmer, living less than a hundred
miles from Alexandria, on a line
of railroad making daily trips, has
to sell 224 pounds of corn at 60
cents, and when the Arkansas
man, living hundreds of miles
away, realizes three times as much
for only 200 pounds of meal.
1t seems to me that some enter
prising mill man might grind
some of that surplus corn into
meal, make good meal, sack it in
fifty-pounds sacks, put his name
and brand on the sack, and guar
antee it. Meal put up in that way,
ground from we'll selected corn,
furnished fresh every week or two,
would have no trouble in holding
its own against the kiln-dried ar
ticles. This has been tested in
two different towns in De Soto
parish, with favorable results.
Another plan would be to Sc
cure corn-shelling machine, one
that would shuck, shell, fan and
sack a thousand bushels per day
(such machines can be purchased
at a cost of-not over $3.50, attach
it to the gin or grist mill steam
power, and in this way put the
corn in proper condition for ship
ment to Europe. Merchants of
Lafayette and other towns along
the railroad, it is your duty to
find a market for the product of
the producer. You should take
such steps as will permit that
product to be shipped in mer-
charitable shape, to the best
interest OF yourselves as we'll as
your customers. You now pro-
vide these advantages for some of
the staple crops, namely, cotton,
sugar and rice. Why not assist
in finding a market for our sur
nlnS corn Southarn Farmer

A WEALTHY DOG.

A dog, worth, in his own right,
$4,000, is now being doctored for
consumption at 'Denver, Colorado,
where he has been carried for his
health. He has a trained nurse
and doctor to attend him. This
particular dog, which is doubtless
the richest dog in the world, is a
small fox terrier, and he literally
fell into his good fortune. He was
a waif in the streets of Philadel-
phia, when wealthy native of the
Quaker city named Davis found
him and took him home. That was
some years ago. Davis conceived
great fondness for the terrier,
and he manifested great deal of
affection for Davis. The poor dog
and the rich man got ON together
famously and became inseparable
companions. When Davis fell i'll
the dog seemed to realize that the
illness was of serions nature,
and refused to be comforted. He
neither ate ncr slept while Davis
was sick. Davis was touched by
the devotion of his canine friend.
And when Davis had died and his
will was read it was found that he
had left to the dog a legacy Of
$4,000. No provision was made
for. the disposition of the legacy
in the event of the terriers death.

SATURDAY MARCH %, 1896.

In recent meeting of the b.
vie Horticultural Society in Bel
ton, Texas, an appeal was made to
the people of that town to pro-
mote the success of canning fac
tory which had been established
there. The argument made was
that the business should succeed
right upon its merits, and in addi-
ton to that it was to the interest
of all parties concerned to pro-
mote such factories owing to the
incidental good that they did the
community. This factory was pay
ing the highest prices current,
both for products and labor, and
some of the produce brought to
the factory was not of the first
quality, but to avoid disappoint-
ing the farmers such material was
bought even where it was known
that the results would be unsatis-
factory. Beans, corn, cucumbers
and tomatoes were bought in con-
siderable quantity and notwith-
standing these losses the factory
will pay dividend. They claim
that their success has been such
that they can raise enough garden
truck in that vicinity to run five
more factories Of equal capacity,
and that with their enlarged ex-
perience they can avoid the mis-
takes of the last season. The fac
tory has employed from sixty to
seventy women and children dur
ing nearly half the year, boys of
IL to IA years of age earning D
cents an hour, and women and
larger boys q cents al hour.
These latter have been working
fifteen hours day. The work is
easy, and the laborers merry and
happy. One women, 60 years of
age, is said to earn $3.50 per week,
the easiest, money ever earned in
her life. This particular factory
cost about $4,000. Of which one
half was spent in Bolton in labor
and material used in constructing
the factory, while only $500 was
sent abroad for machinery. This
experience at Bolton should be
very suggestive to the farmers
throughout the gulf States, where
such vast opportunities in the
same direction are numerous.

Women Who Hunt.
From the Now York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
The Sun published a report recently
about Mrs. Bowman Ames, of Blanch-
ard, Maine, who has killed a large
deer and trapped five foxes neal her
home this winter. There are many
women who handle shotguns and RIFLES
quite as well as an ordinary man, and
some considerably better. Every year
large numbers of deer are killed by
women in the Adirondacks. Mrs.
White, the wife of a New York broker,
has killed two deer in the Moose river
district every fall for several years, and
has a six-point buck on her score. Not
very long ago a California woman
gave a panther its quietus with a bullet
from her own rife, and readers Of the
Sun will remember the bear killed by
a girl of eighteen up near the Fulton
chain of lakes in the Adirondacks.
The daughter of a well known Forest
and Stream writer some time ago
killed a mother bear and her cub.
Wildcats and wolves have also been
killed by women experts. Women
who can stop a duck, partridge OF
woodcock in full fight are frequently
met with in the blinds along the coast
or In the alders and spruce thickets in
the back country.
