Mr.. n. J. Smith, Of the firm of
Smith & Scott, had a very
narrow escape last Wednesday
noon. He had gone down with
his horse and buggy to the mill
of Messrs. Griffin & Brooks on
Neuse river and was on his way
back home, coming The road as
best he could with the high water
from the river covering the whole
locality, when he drove into a
deep clay hole near the brick yard
of Messrs. Fl. We'll & Bros. He
had his ten-year-old son with him
in the buggy. AS soon as the
buggy sunk down in the water, he
grabbed his son under his arm
and swan for thirty feet before he
could find the brink Of the hole,
The experience came near proving
too much for the boy, whose head
was under water while Mr. Smith
was swimming out. A colored
man who was standing near by
kept the horse from drowning.

drought, corn on upland should be
given good distance. The distance
may vary with the depth to which the
land has been broken. the amount of
humus present in the soil and the
frequency and thoroughness of culti-
vation. When land is deep broken,
when the soil abounds in humus, and
when the crop is given thorough sur
face cultivation at short intervals.
corn may be given less distance than
when the opposite conditions prevail.
On ordinary land, with ordinary prep
aration and cultivation, each stalk of
corn should have space of Il square
feet apart. That is. if drills are six
feet apart. the hills should be two
feet distant from each other. On the
deep, rich soils. abounding in humus.
less distance may be given, also on
bottom lands. At the north, corn is
planted much thicker than at the
south, because its corn is smaller
stalEed than southern corn. because
as rule its soils are better filed with
humus and are deeper broken. More
over. from the comparative shortness
of its summers the soil does not get
as much heated rs it does at the south.
The small varieties of northern coru
may be planted thicker at the south
than our large varieties. six to eight
square feet being sufficient for them.

Senator Shoup then told of one CT his
frontier experiences. He was by long
odds more experienced scout. and en-
gagged in more battles than Buffalo Bill
ever dreamed of; but he never went out
as a Snowman. and his services are
known only to few of his intimate

waterhole to waterhole, until, after

came over knoll one morning and dis

'The Indians also saw us. and at once

which was granted. The old chief, with
five sub-chiefs. came to meet me. He an
nounced his intention of killing us all.
After vain argument. telling him ! was
merely fulfilling duty. and seeing that
he was inexorable. raised my sabre.
Without looking back, I said: If
wave my sword my men will kill you
and your sub-chiefs. Surrender at
once. and walk inside of my hollow
square,
''rhe old man saw that l had him
sure; and he with his sub-chiefs entered
the hollow square. where they were dis
armed Under my orders he sent out
word that the marauders must be SUR
rendered. and they were brought in.
All of them were roped. and for six days
we marched back to the fort. where
delivered the chief, sub-chiefs and
about 1000 Indian prisoners.
Senator Shoup narrated this bit OF
history modestly, and Senator Mabder-
son said: "Yes, senator. l know that

Senator Shoup ,then told several in
teresting stories about the life OF San
ders on the frontier. There were
troublous times in the sixties, and law
less elements dominated affairs. At
last Sanders, the big, brawny. brave
frontiersman, organized the vigilantes

property was destroyed, horses stolen

mitted Sanders, at the head of his vigi-
lantes. would organize posse comi-

There were no courts, save those which
were held under the auspices of Judge
Lynch; and many an outlaw was thus
tried, and condemned, and executed by
Sanders and his viyilantes. They were
the forerunHers of the federal courts,
marshals and attorneys. Senator Shoup
also said that Sanders was brave SOL
lier of the civil war, and every way
a worthy man of his time.
Referring to the civil war. Senator
Henderson said: 81 always think of the
battle of Shiloh when the war is men

is not pleasant. When we entered that
battle l was the senior captain of my

HERE AND THERE.

We can not expect 4 large yield OF
tubers without Il good growth of vine:
yet. if planted too close cn moist, rich
CT too heavily shaded soil. the foliage
OF potatoes may sometimes develop at
the expense of the crop.
Often il is that the best mixer in
the herd gives the most trouble in
milking. This is due to her high ner-
vous temperament. Always use her
gently. and in time her infirmity will
disappear.
If mineral food clements he scant
and heterogeneous matter IL excess, pO-
tatoes are apt to be most lt.xuriant in
their growth above ground. Especially
should there be a supply Of potash and
phosphoric acid.
Land broken broadcast in fall or
winter and thoroughly narrowed be-
fore planting, forms an ideal seed bed
for corn, and may be made to save q
large amount of labor on account of
its adaptability for the use OF labor
saving implements.
1t is too early in the day to talk
about slowing up ON stock raising.
The United States has not much over
50 sheep for every hundred of popula-
ton, while Australia has 3,00G to the
same number of inhabitants.
Cotton picking has ceased all over
the south: but that don't mean that
all the cotton has been gathered. Thou
sands of bales have been abandoned in
the field to be beaten out by wind and
rain and licked out by cattle. Really,
this looks like over-production. and is
a strong argument in favor of diversi-
flying crops.
I'm cold weather a hot breakfast il

With this exception there is no special
advantage in cooked-over raw feed.
For hot breagfast wheat bran and oats

every winter and have never had rea-
son to change.
The pleasure in poultry work is by
no means to be measured alone by the

Just little better than any ones vol
