A South Carolinian asks some ques-
tions in regard to the manuring Of tho
cotton crop. He says that they have
got into the practice in his section Of
using 700 pounds broadcast Of q mixture
Of 500 pounds cottonseed meal, 1850
pounds of acid phosphate and $50
pounds kainit to make a ton. W. +.
Massey answers his questions in the
Texas Farm and Ranch. He says:
While this is heavy fertilizing SO far
rs mere quantity goes, it is defective,
we think, in the proportions Of the in
gradients used. II the potash was in the
form, of the muriate, it would be better,
for as in tthat case each acre would get
nearly 80 pounds of actual potash,
while with the kainit there would be
only about one-fourth that much, IA guam
tity that is not sufficient for the amount
of phosphoric acid applied. Then, too,
we doubt the profit in such u heavy APP
~plication directly to the cotton crop. 1t
would he far, more profitable To use half
of the mixture of acid phosphate and
kainit on the pea crop preceding the
cotton crop aud to vary the proportion
so as to make, il kainit is used, the
mixture of equal parts of kainit and

termination of the seed. Then apply
the remainder Of the mixture of acid

In his speech before the reichstag
the emperor of Germany declares he
has not hesitated to pledge his only
brother to the preservation of his en-

Artemus Ward was during our war,
when he declared he was willing to sac

TELEGRAPH POLE FOR A SHOP
A Harness Dealer Who Is Doing a
Rushing Business In the Mid
die of West Street.

A telegraph pole in West street, New
York, Is utilized as store, says the Sun
OF that city. The pole stands In the
middle Of the street, not far from Ganse-
WORT market. The stock of the "store"
consists Of harness and saddler's hard
ware. These articles are hung upon
Iron spikes driven in the pole. The pro-
prietor, who is also clerk, cashier and
"barker," carries some Of the stock on
his person. Lighter weight articles are
around his neck; currycombs, brushes
and other articles are in his pockets.
He holds bunch of whips under one
arm and carries one lash in his hand.
He circles about his ''store," crying his
wares to the passers by. There are few
streets in New York where there is as
much teaming as in West street, and
most of the trade thatcomes to the tele-
graph pole is from Transfers.
what does he do when it rains 2"
That is always the question Of those
who notice the odd place of business.
The proprietor shifts his stock across
the street to place which he patron
ICES and his patronage pays the rent.
But he does not shut up shop on rainy
days. Having stored the bulk of hts
stock he goes on soliciting jaunt
among the shops, carrying few "side
lines" like commercial agents of the
more pretentious class, and these are
salable anywhere.

L 4 l.

Gold democrats appear to have gone
where the wicked cease from troub-
ling and the weary are at rest.
Silence has fallen upon the camp OF
the assistant republicans. Such a
silence as is kept in the presence of
death. If there are any gold demo-
Gratis yet numbered among the living
their voices are not heard, their in
fiuence is no longer felt.
This is as it should be. Democracy
was defined by the national demo
cratic convention held in Chicago in
1896 1t pronounced itself as in favor
of the money of the constitution, It
called for the reconciliation Of sill
yer by the United States Independent
of any other nation, and it demand
ed the opening of the mints to the
free coinage of silver and gold ct the
ratio of % to 1.
This demand was approved by the
vote of 100000 democrats, and it
was opposed by vote of 10000 So
called gold democrats. Where are
those recalcitrants now?
They have gone to that bourne
from whence no traveller returns.

TO HASTEN HIS DEPARTURE.
Maj. Gen. Otis VIII Leave for Manila
Not Later Than the Middle
of the Week.

San Francisco, Cal, July o. Mai.
Gen. Otis will hasten his departure for
Manila in accordance with instructions
from Washington. He may go on either
the Peru or the City of Puebla, which
are expected to sail not later than the
middle of next week, without waiting
for the other vessels now being pre-
pared for use as transports. On reach
Ing Manila Gen. Otis will probably as
sumo command of all the troops In the
field, leaving Gen. Merritt free to take
charge of his duties as governor gem
eral. 1t is stated that Brig. Gen. H. G.
Otis will accompany the major general,
and that Gen. Miller will assume COM
mand of the troops remaining here.
The Eighth California regiment is like
ly to be sent to Honolulu to garrison
that city. 1t can be prepared for such
service in few days and its departure
would not weaken the Philippine expe-
dictionary force now here. The choice
lies between this regiment and the
Sixth California supplemented by the
Washington volunteers. The arrival of
10 recruits from Kansas will more than
I'LL the signal corps, and it will likely
go with the next expedition
The Utah troops hive received their
final equipments, but are still short FL
horses. Strict orders have been issued
for the sanitary improvement of Camp
Merritt.

nificent gratnity to banks. 1t will be
made to appear that the country is
prosperous, and that the peoples
pockets are so fnll OF money that the
American people demanded this legis-
lation to afford them an investment
for their surplus funds, and that
Congress was moved to the iniquity
of this vicious measure in response to
the popular demand instead of acting
as servants and employees of the banks
and the money power
If the bonds were to be awarded to
the highest bidders and competitive
bids invited, the bonds would in the
main go into the same hands that
will get them under the present plan,
but they would pay from fifteen to
twenty millions more for them; there
for the present bond deal of the Re-
publican party under the guise of a
patriotic measure and war neces-
sity, is an infamous measure to enrich
those already rich and to still further
plumber the taxpayer.
The Republican party is acting the
part of highwaymen, holding up the
taxpayers in the interests of the
money power and the banks. The
popular loan gauze is thin. The
people can see through it, and honest |
men will condemn any party guilty
of such acts. Silver Knight Watch

My supreme social effort has been
accomplished, and am nothing but a
wrungout rag left to tell the tale

the Ladies' Home Journal in her series
OF letters giving her experiences in
Washington. I'm tired enough to go
to bed by the time breakfast is over.
Do you suppose am catching laziness?
It's in the air. By the supreme effort |
mean my cabinet dinner, the last one
of this season, ard the first state affair
to follow Lent and Easter. There is no
set time nor rule governing these din
ners. This year the cabinet ladies got
together and decided to divide the
honor equally among them, half of our
number entertaining each year, conse-
quently I will only give two cabinet
dinners during the administration.
Everything went off smoothly owing
to Lem and d good caterer. The truth
Is, Lyde, the servants make or mar an
administration. Tariff and currency
are Of Importance, but good domestic
service Is necessity. If L were lobby
