WZ H#UH=
SECRETARY Gage. Che Morpkedite pol.
itician. commingling in his political
cree. the doctrines Of DemoefRt, Be
publican and Mugwump, said in a re.
cent speech that we DO not want money
for moneys sake, but Tor what money
viii buy. Is that soG Well what
does Gage want to buyl Il II apala'
tia1 home9 He has that. Il Il the
best that the market viii supply for
his tablet He buys that. il il fine
raiment3 He has that. Ia it the
pleasures Of life as We estimate pleas.
uresG He enjoys all these. Still he
has money left and hangs onto it. It
we want money for only what money
will buy, why do Rockefeller, the
Goulds, the Vanderbiltss and scores OF
other mathematics keep close clutch Of
millions upon millions more than even
reckless extravaganza could spend.
Nj. Gage either knows that he is talk.
ing nonsense or else he is an idiot.
Men want money for the sake of mon.
ey. They are willing to starve widows
and children to get it simply for the
sake of possessing it. They are ready
to crush small enterprises. throw thou
sands out Of employment, rob the far
mer and everybody else, and even com.
NIT crime to secure money which
they cannot use, except for the pur-
poses Of tyranny over those who have
not so much money as they have.
Gage is the Morton of the present
cabinet. His mouth is never shut.
He talks like q windmill when he is
awake and shores when he is asleep,
and all that he says and his snoring
have a gold metallic ring. The other
cabinet officers seens to be attending
to. the business Of their Offices, but
Gage is going up and down the land,
like q roaring lion, talking to every
audience that will cit still and listen
to him. Every administration seems
fated to have q wind bag in it. Nor,
ton was in Cleveland's and Gage is in
McKinIey's, and the time may come

Two q OF EARNING.

By looking carefully over q rural
ODmmunlty we see that not all farmers
and their families are abridged in
needed leisure and time for social
pleasure. This Is because there are
two agricultural classes living side by
side. One represents the man who
drives his work, has little to complain
OF, and the other, one who lets his work
drive him and who isalWays bitterly
complaining. The farmer who does
not 'get along belongs to the latter
class. He makes many unnecessary
trips to town, and golden hours fit by
which he lounges. He does not start
60 hoe his corn or potatoes until the
weeds are choking them, and the grass
Rhis meadow is past its prime before
e ID cut. His work Is proverbially ten
days behind hand from seeding time
tn harvest, and his crops sufsr in
consequences. This man takes his leia-
ure &C the wrong time, right &C critical
periods in the cultivation and harvest
ing OF his crops
His more wise and consequently
more successful agricultural agricul
tufA brother pursues an opposite
course. He meets half way natures
Efforts 30 help him, and keeps his
work well Inn hand and under his con-
troll. The care of his crops and stock
always receives first consideration, be-
cause they represents ais lfviDg-his
bank account. While his negligent
brother is making those unnecessary
and prolonged visits GO town he ia inn
proving the golden moments by q brisk,
industrious and alert policy, which
win keep the cultivation Of his farm 80
thoroughly in hand that. he viii have,
besides plenty Of leisure for sufficient
social enjoyment with his family and
friends, time to read the best jYurnaIs,
and also to indulge with his family in
occasional days Of recreation. Thus q
farmer, by proper management, may
enjoy as much or more leisure than q
man in any other line Of business, and
at the same time reap substantial
prohts-provided his hours or days of
leisure r chosen at the right time

CHEAP PORK PRODUCTION.

Correspondence Of the Progressive Farmer,
Alabama Station Bulletin No. 80 tells
OF tests Of peanuts, COW peas and sweet
potatoes as economical feeds for the
production of pork. The animals fed
varied in age from pige just weaned to
half grown shoats, being all young,
growing stock. UnIeached hard wood
ashes and salt were kept within reach
and were freely used by these pigs.
The experiment began September 8,
1897, and ended February 19, 1895.
Following are the results obtained
Spanish peanuts, when harvested by
young pigs, were converted into pork
worth, at 8 cents per pound, S1s "a per
acre Of peanuts, when all conditions
were favorable.
This piece Of poor sandy upland,
which gave q return OF over S1s per
acre i'm peanut pork, would not have
produced with same fertilizers over 200
pounds of lint cotton per acre, worth
$40 TO S12. The expense of cultivating
these peanuts was much less than the
cost Of q similar area in cotton. b1os

stand Of plants, the value Of the pork
