A PRESCRIPTION.

DIR. Robert J. Gatling. a North Oaio-
Imam BY birth, the inventor OF the tal-
line "1n. saws that he has done more
10 make peace between nations than any
man living. His fdea is that the eating
.un and other wholesale notwithstanding
inventions have made war so terrible
that it is avcrted whenever 1t can be
safely lone.
The action Of Congress in appropriate
in. fifty million dollars to get ready Tor
war is another method Of preventing
bostilities. It shows the united sentl-
nent of the country in favor Of main
tanning national honor, and the posses
SION of the ammunition of war. Con
rress seems to act on d large scale upon
the same view that Frank Stanton takes
in his short poem when he writes:
1--WE talk o peace, an never cease
The fires o war ter stitlc,
But the way ter keep the world III peace
Is lest ter cock ger rifle.
"OId War talks loud in ever crowd
Been that way sencc we knoWcd her;
But IF you'd keep her still an coWcd,
jest cock yer old brecch-loader.'

less than ten years ago Mr.. Ecrrcc

industry has been almost wholly devcl-

Until the last few years, there were

WAR Talk AND CROPS.

While all hope that war will be avert
ed, every thoughtful man must ap-
p~rcciatc that the conditions favor hostill-
ties before the year is out.
If there is war. the demand for wheat,
corn, rice. meat, beef. potatoes and ali
other products of the farm will he 80
great that the price for everything -
eat will go up, and if the war SHOULD last
long the price of bread and meat will 80
up to very high prices.
In view Of this possibility. it is the
part Of wisdom for farmers to curtaiI
their crops of tobacco and cotton and
plant every acre Of land they can cult
vatc i'll what supports man and beast.
If there should be war their crops vii
make them rich; if peace remains I'm.
food and the farmers will live we'll al
home.
With war. the price of cotton and to.
bacco would most surely go down JUS
as b~rcadstuff and meats would go I'D.
Moral: Plant plenty of hog and homi
ny,
Nothing emits Il worse odor than 4 fal
