HERBERT.-MAMIE, aged eight years,
daughter of Mr.. and MIS-. John Herbert. Of
Magnolia, died on Friday, July rs, of diph-
liberia.
Her death was a shock to the community,
as she was thought to be recovering, but she
was taken with IL relapse and died very sud-
denly. Just two week before her death she,
with several other little girls. were celebrating
the sixth birthday of Grace Skillman, little
playmate, at the home of the latter, and SEEM
ed to be as bright and merry as any of the
party. That night she was res less, her parents
attributipg il TO the excitement of the day, but
she gradually grew worse, and in Il few days
was found to be suffering FROM uiphtheria.
Little Manic possessed Il bright, che erful dis
position, which enGcared her to all who knew
her. She wGS faVoritc with her playmates,
and will be missed in the public and Sunday
schools and in the entire ncighbOrhGOd. but by
none so sadly as the fond parents and loving
brother. NO one can think of Mamie without
remembering her pleasant face. 1t seems bard
that we should have to give her up, but q cd, in
His infinite wisdom, knows what is best for
each Of us. We know she is safe, for He said
suffer little children to come unto me, and
forbid them not, for of such is the kingdom Of
heaven"
In that beautiful place he has gone to prepare
For all who are washed and forgiven;
a nd many dear children are gathered there,
For of such is the kingdom of heaven

Sorghum and Cow Peas.

LAUREL, Md, Aug. AT meeting of one
of the Montgomery county oranges on August
2, DIR. Staber, of Brighton, gave an account OF
some experiments he has been conducting on
II large scale, which ought to be of interest TO
many Hartford farmers
He finds that TN hiliy land, with light, thin
soil, he raise Il larger crop of sorghum and
COW peas sowcd together than of anything else
that he can plant. The two do better together
than either alone, and the sorghum stands dry
weather much better than corn. The sorghum
is more easily cured than corn fodder, and
cattle eat it even better. He sowS his crop in
June, as both plants require hot weather.
He Sows the COW pea in his fields OF sugar
corn ut the last working and gets rank growth
for September pasture.
The cow pea is extensively sown in the section
lying south of the b. Il U. Railroad, west of
Baltimore, as Il fertiliZing crop rs well as fCr
feed. The seed is sOwed iu June and cutting on
it for green feed can begin IN from 4 to weeks
If turned under i'll September rye is sowed
tina is turned under in the spring, lime applied
sometimes and land, so poor before as to be
entirely bare of vegetation, will then produce
good crops. If cut for hay, to 3 tons pei
acre are secured, and il seems to be equal
to the best clover hay. The secret of the won
derful value OF the COW pea as Il land renovation
is the fact that it is the most extensive all
feeder known to this climate.
Some Hartford farmers who tried this plant 8
years ago, failed because they planted it toe
early. lt should not be planted before the
middle of May. +. A. Is.
