GREEN FOOD FOR STOCK.

In summer the pasture is severely
taxed, not to provide for a large
herd, but also make growth when the
land has not been supplied with plant
food in the form of manure or fertil-
izer. Some farmers relieve the pas
ture from close and constant cropping
by growing some kind of green crop,
such as sweet corn, oats or COW peas,
the plants are young in order to take
them off the pasture long auough to
give the grass a start. AS the crops
so grown can be used at any stage it
requires but a short time to provide
such green food for the stock. But
little labor is required, the land being
stirred with dice cultivator and the
seed broadcasted and the land then
rolled. The cost of such a temporary
crop is but little while the rest that is
given the pasture will be of great SER
vice to the plants. If there is danger
from trampling of the green food it
may be cut and fed to COWS. a mix
ture of oats aud peas, broadcasted to-
gether, has long been used by some
farmers, but any kind of green crop
will answer, as the object is to take
the COWS off the pasture and at the
same time provide a substitute for
grass in manner not to diminish the
yield of milk by the COWS.
When the days are warm and dry
there is constant loss of moisture by
evaporation. This evaporation occurs
not only from the plants, which give
off moisture but also from the surface
of the ground. 1t has been estimated
that over two thirds of a pound of
water per square foot is lost from the
soil during dry weather. When the
top surface is loosened it becomes a
covering of dirt, and lessons the loss
OF moisture. The importance of pre-
venting the escape of moisture may
be shown by the fact that in order to
produce one ton of hay on one acre
$50 tons of water are used equal to
nearly inches of rainfall. To save
moisture first pillow the land to depth
that may be permitted without throw
ing the subsoil to the surface, allow
no,weeds and keep the surface soil
always lose and fine. Philadelphia

This hour just take one look to the past
and see what it has been, and take one
look to the future and see what it
threatens to be. You can afford to lose
your health, you can afford to lose your
property, you can afford to lose your
reputation, but you cannot afford to lose
your soul. That bright, cleaning, glori-
Gus, precious, eternal possession you
must carry aloft in the day when the
earth burns up and the heavens burst
You see from my subject that when
man gets into the safety and peace of
the gospel he does not demean himself
There is nothing in religion that leads
to meanness or unmanliness. The Cos
pei of Jesus Christ only asks you to
climb as Jonathan did-climb toward
God, climb toward heaven, climb into
the sunshine Of God S favor. To become
Christian is not to go meanly down;
it is to come gloriously up-up into the
communion Of saints; up into the peace
that passeth all understanding; up into
the companionship of angels. He lives
upward; he dies upward.
Oh, then, accept the wholesale invi-
tation which I make this day to all the
people! Come up from between your
invalidism and financial embarrass-

bereavements and your restitution.
Come up from between a wasted life

A Cheerful View.


Nearly every southern city J
have been in is growing and de-
yeIoping. The clearing house re
turns show a great volume of busi-
ness and railroad earnings are lar
ger. In many sections of the
south is springing up an active de-
mand for farm lands at prices
much in advance of prices a
couple of years ago. Nearly all
the corporate interest | know OF
seem to have had a iairly good
year and earned a reasonably good
interest on capital.
They could not have done this
unless there had been to some eX-
tent some Improvement in the con-
dition of the country at large. As
to city real estate | do not believe
we will have for a long time, il
ever, prices which prevailed when
the Sherman law was in operation.
Injection OF about 5o0,00O,OOO a
year of silver into the currency OF
the country, naturally produced
some initiation and inflated values.
The man who sits down now and
expects to realize the prices OBJ
tanned then, except in special cases,
is likely to be disappointed; but
there will come a time, and | think
it is coming very soon, when real
estate will sell for as much as it Is
worth. IS. NJ. Inman in Atlanta

THE RIVER,

While the conservative and ex-
perienced still say that we are not
vet out of the woods, the prospect
for escape from high water this
spring is very good. A falling
river at the middle of February
is very unusual and encouraging
situation indeed, and the indica-
tions are that unless sudden and
most unexpected food sweeps down
within the next few weeks the
volume of water In the river will
be sufficiently reduced to admit

A NOBLE CAUSE.


spreading influence of the work of
the Kings Daughters is as crafty
ing to the noble women to whom
it owes it existence as to the com
munity generally.
The yearly report recently pub
lished in THE TINES shows the re-
suits achieved during the past
twelve months-results which, II
year before, appeared almost i'm
possible of accomplishment. But
the Kings Daughters do not rest
satisfied with the achievement,
great as it is.
Their present determination is
TO enlarge their hospital building
ard add to the facilities they pc
sess for aiding the unfortuuate.
To this end the building com
mittee is now at work on plans for
the proposed enlargement Of the
building, and the circle have been
greatly encouraged in their work
by the liberal and unsolicited dor
nations which have already been
made by those who know the
projects which they have in hand.
In one case a cash donation of 500
was received, and others raising
the sum to 5000, with which the
building fund is to be started. 1t
is not doubted that the public,
when aware that their contribu-
tions are to be used for such pur-
pose, will promptly respond, and
in very short time the capacity
of the hospital building will be in
creased to the desired extent. In
addition to the efforts now being
made by the regular circle, the
Rosebuds, an auxiliary association
composed of young girls, have
determined to add children 8
ward to the present hospital build
ing, and all their efforts are now
made with that end in view. Find
ing it absolutely necessary'to have
some one in regular and constant
charge of the hospital, the Kings
Daughters have secured the SER
vices of a trained nurse, who will
! 10 placed in charge of the building
and will make her home in it; and
who while devoting her services
chiefly to the patients of the hos
pital, will also be free to give her
services in private houses, in cases
where they may be needed,
She is most highly recommended
by DR.. Maury, of memphis, anc
her presence will be valuable
acquisition both the hospital anc
the city.
In order to secure the salary Of
this nurse the circle is endeavorine
| to secure new or honorary members
to the number of 100. Many, bott
men and women, have already iion
ed. each member paying yea y
dues of $500, and in some case
more, according to the ability anC
disposition. The work of the AZ
sociation had its rise in small be
gilnings, but, as is well known

WHAT THE CHINESE THINK.

The Literary Digest, in trans
lation from tho Frankfurtel
Zeltung, gives the following inter
esting Chinese view of the situ-
alton, being the opinions of a dis
tinguished Chinaman of Shanghai
eve are always told that the
countries of the foreign devils are
grand and rich, but that cannoJ
be true, else what dothey ell come
here forg 1t is here that they
grow rich. But you cannot civil
ize them; they are beyond redemp-
tion. They Will live weeks and
months without touching a mouth
full Of rice, but they eat the flesh
of bullocks and sheepin enormous
quantities. That is why they
smell so badly; they smell like
sheep themselves.
Every day they take a bath tc
rid themselves Of theil disagree
able odors, bat they do not sue
ceed. Nor do they eat their meat
cooked in small pieces 1t is car
ried into the room in large chunks,
often half raw, and then they
cut and slash and tear it apart.
They eat with knives and prongs.
IT makes civilized being perfect
lv nervous. One fancies himself
in the presence of sword swallow
ers. The opium poison, which
they have brought us, they do not
use themselves, but they take
enormous quantities of whis&ey
and champagne. The latter is
very good. They know what is
good, the rascals. 1t is because
they eat and drink so much that
they never rest. A sensible civil
lied person does nothing without
due consideration; but the bar
barians hurry with everything.
Their anger, however, is only a
fire of straw. If you wait long
enough they get tired of being
angry. 1 worked for two Of them.
The one we used to call the Crazy
Flea because he WAS always
jumping about; the other we
named the wooden Gun, because
he never went OF, though he wAf
always at full cock.
They certainly do not know how
to amuse themselves. You never
see them enjoy themselves by sit
ting quietly upon their ancestor
grave. They jump around snt
kick balls as if they were paid tt
do it. Again, you will ind then
making long tramps into tho
country; but that is probably re-
ligious duty, for when they traml
they wave sticks in the air, no
body knows why. They have nj
sense Of dignity, for they may b'
