In slavery days the coarsest cotton goods in which the slaves were dressed were purchased from the north or abroad, as were all the finer goods consumed in the south, as a matter of course. From manu- featuring no cotton goods at all to manufacturing more than it's people consume is a long stride, all of which has been taken since the war, and most of it within the last decade.
 ''UnweIcome as these figures may prove to the cotton manufacturers of the north, they point unerringly to revolution that has come to stay, and it will be the part Of wis dom to face and accept the facts.

 The New Orleans Picayune pays the following beautiful tribute to Miss Winnie Davis, the late "Daugh- ter of the ConfederacY:'
 From one end to the other of this great and level Southland the sad news that Miss Winnie Davis, youngest daughter of the immortal chleftain of the Confederate States, Jefferson Davis, breathed her last at Narragansett Pier, will be read with tear-dimmed eyes and sobbing hearts. For days past the people who knew and loved Jefferson Davis and followed him through all the phases of his memorable and historic career, have watched with eagerness for every note of intelligence from the bedside of the sufferer at Nara gansett Pier-the gentle daughter of the noble hero, the beloved child of the South-sweet and winsome Winnie Davis, who long ago found her true place in the hearts O the defenders of her devoted country, and who as their adopted daughter, had her name sung in camp and bivouac, by mountain and stream, beneath Virginia's sunI.t skies and Louisiana blossoming trees; on Texas plains and Georgia's blood stained batte-ieds. Everywhere from Florida to Missouri, from Tenn essee to Mississippi, the South claimed the daughter of its fearless and devoted leader as it's own, and when he was lald to rest forever on the fields of Richmond, in that his toric capital of the Confectionery, the old veterans renewed their allegi- ance to the widow of Jefferson Davis and his daughter, aud today the grief of the stricken mother and sister, mourning like Rachel for their best beloved, is the grief of the entire South-together the tears of this devoted section miugle with those of the broken-h hearted widow and mother.

in that condition. I would never use

But that is poor plan. One good thing
about rotation is that we get rid OF the
insects that live in the ground after the
crop is taken of. There is not as much
care given to the selection Of seed az
there should be. The potato runs out,
we say. Well, it runs out partly beause
we do not exercise care in the selection
Of seed. Still. under the best of care, il
is better to buy new seed occasionally.

ABOUT BOOKS AND WRITER'S.

Mrs. Annie Hurd Dyer is translating
into Japanese the two novels by james
Lane Allen. entitled "a Kentucky Car
dinal" and aftermath"
Admirers of John Oliver Hobbies and
her stories with long titles will be en-
4 led to purchase "Some Emotions and
Moral" 1.-THE Sinners Comedy" "a
Study in Temptations" and "a Bundle
Of Life" in a uniform edition in the near
future.
II. G. Wells is recasting the "War Of
the Worlds" and very considerable al
terations will be made before it appears
in book form. In addition to extensive
rewriting. four new chapters will be
added. including an account Of the
Martians in their encampment.
The novel called 1.-THE Londoners,"
which Robert Kitchens has lately COM
pleted, is yet another new departure
made by the author of "Flames." from
which book it differs totally. It is said
to deal In not too serious vein with
society in London and at Ascot. It will
probably be issued in the spring.
Some unpublished letters of Robert
Burns are soon to be brought ont in a
volume entitled THE Correspondence
Between Burns and Mrs. Dunlop" The
correspondence contains the poets
