One of the points connected with the
great battle of July of Santiago is the
fact that so few shots took effect on the
smokepipes of the Spanish vessels. Out
of some 60 or more shots which struck
the Vizcaya scarcely half a dozen show
on her smokepipes. This is one OF the
evidences OF the effective craftsmanship
of the American sailor, and is in decided
contrast TO the fire of the Soaniards,
which was aimed so high as to arouse
the suspicion that they were shooting at
the bridge.

PROTECT THE IRISH POTATOES.

The striped Colorado potato beetle is
already btisily depositing eggs upon the
vines. In short time these will hatch
and the work of destruction will COM
mence. AS soon as the young beetles
hatch they crawl to. the bud of the plant
and feed first upon the most tender parts,
but if not promptly destroyed will in a
few days eat the leaves from the entire
plant.
The young are so unlike the parent
beetle that they are not recognizable as
her offspring. AS soon as the young
beetles hatch the vines should be
sprinkled with Paris green. Some re-
commend spraying, but as very few
farmers or amateur gardeners possess the
spraying apparatus we recommend the
method which we have practiced success
fully for the last three years. Mix thor
oughly heaping table spoon full of
Paris green with two quarts of -four or
air-slaked lime. Put this into thin
flour sack and tie the mouth of the sack
on the end of stout stick four feet long.
Pass along the rows and shaking the
sack over the vines dust enough of the
mixture upon the plants to give them a
slight whitish appearance. 1t is really
not necessary to dust the poison upon
the vines not affected..by the young bee
ties If rain washes the powder from
the vines re-dust them.

Use THE HARROW MORE.

AT this season of the year there isa
tendency, resulting from the id..evap-
oration under the influence of drying
winds, to the formation Of crust upon
cultivated fields. This is especially true
of lands deficient in humus. 1t is not
always practicable to use the plow to-
destroy the crust The harrow may be
used at an earlier stage of the growth of
the crop than the plow. Indeed it is
often desirable to use it before the
plants vegctate in order to break the
crust formed upon the surface OF the
soil and to admit air, which is necessary
for the vigorous termination of the
seed.
For such use the teeth of the harrow
should be inclined backward at an angle
of as degrees. In this position they
simply pulverize without dragging trash
or seriously cutting the roots of plants.
Any one who will harrow in this way
part of field as soon as practicable af-
ter each rain, leaving the crust to form
upon the balance, will soon be con-
vinced of its efficacy.
During recent visit to some of the
best cotton counties of the. State we saw
many fields sadly in need of the harrow.
The economy of the use of the harrow is
readily understood when we reflect that
two mules and driver, with four Sec
tons of smoothing harrow, will pull
verize space of ten feet III width,
while the man and mule with the small
sweep or side harrow only covers one
foot.

1t consists of a car, the sides Of which
consists of a network of steel bars. III.
bad weather canvass is drawn down over
this network. In warm weather the
ventilation is perfect and yet when locked
into the car the prisoners are perfectly
secure. The guards have a substantial
tent in which stove is placed in very
cold weather. From this stove a pipe
conveying hot al. S passed under the
hunks i'll the car. Mounted upon sub
stantial broad tire wheels the car is
moved along to suit the convenience of
the road-workers. 1t accommodates
twenty-five comfortably. It's cost, COM

develop his invention and reap the re-

CHGFPIEG COTTON.

A machine which will separate the
we'll developed from the inferior cotton
seed is much needed. Owing to the
fact that part of the lint adheres to the
seed Of the upland varieties the scpara-
ton or grading of the seed is very diff
cult. No one thinks Of planting wheat
or corn without careful selection of the
seed, and yet in a crop of such vast inn
portancc as cotton no device has been
invented which will Gull the inferior
seed.
Experiments in which the fully de-
veloped, plump seed were compared
with the smaller ones from the same lot
invariably indicate superiority in gcrmi-
nation of the seed and in the growth Of
the young plants.
Every observant cotton planter has
noticed the difference in the rigor Of diff
fercnt plants from the same lot of seed
and in the same row. This is natural
grading, which may be utilized to some
extent in "chopping' Or reducing the
cotton plants to "stand," but this is
seldom done, the smallest, dwarfed plant
standing an equal chance Of being left
to grow with the most vigorous. If the
proper care is exercised in chopping a
selection of the strongest plants may be
made.
When labor was abundant and cheap
many planters resorted to the practice of
passing rapidly over their crops and
"blocking out" the surplus plants, leav-
ing those not cut out standing in clus-
ters or "blocks." After passing over
the field in this way they would return,
and going over more carefully, thin the
plants in these blocks to one or two in &
place. Under present conditions the hoe
work must be reduced to minimum
and hence the "blocking out" has been
generally abandoned. 1t is now of the
utmost Importance not only that the
cotton be reduced promptly to stand,
but that while chopping every sprig of
grass shall be removed from the drill in
order that all subsequent work may be
done with the heel scrnpe and the cost of
production minimized.
