THE questions discussed are sc
paramount interest to the great
body of farmers. The speakers
provided at each Institute are men
qualified by experience and study
to handle intelligently and help
fully the subjects selected for dis
cussion. These subjects will EN-
brace eventually, the whole range
of agricultural science and prac-
tice. Our agriculture languishes
to-day because of our neglect of
our soils, and of our methods, not
only as to fertilization, ~but as to
preparation, rotation and tillage.
The elements of fertility, origi-
nally in superabundance, have, by
our short-sighted methods, been
heavily drawn upon, and to large
degree exhausted from our once
fertile fields. Our cotton crop,
our main stay, is made largely on
credit, and is thus forced on the
market in such heavy amounts at
the opening of the season, as to
depress and demoralize prices to a
ruinous degree. All these ques-
tions and others, demand our ear
nest, thoughtful consideration.
In every other avenue of trade and
industry prices are advancing and
the outlook is hopeful. 1t is only
the price of cotton, the great
money crop of the south, the
powerful lever, which moves our
business world, which remains de-
pressed. Shall we stand idly by
and see our great industry crushed
and paralyzed, because of our neg
lect to discover thV causes, which
have brought about thesSsdistress-
ing results ? Shall we not rather
meet together and by discussing
these important questions find the
remedy for at least some of the
evils which Cypress us to-day ?
This and every other movement
having for it's object the improve
ment of our lands, and the most
remunerative production of crops,
should be most carefully studied
/ The first Farmers Institute will be
held in Marietta on Saturday, the
I'd of September. A reference tc
the programme printed elsewhere,
will give some idea as to it's plan
and objects. We hope that farm
ers generally will come out and
encourage us by their presence and
counsel, remembering that sin q
multitude of counsellors there is
wisdom. ;"

TO make an cutlery, and he left the
room.
Witness testified that DR.. Stathers
subsequently made declarations of
love for her, demonstrated with her
for her treatment Of him, charged her
with ingratitude, reminded her that
she was friendless, save him, and
made further improper proposals.
On one occasion in January she said
he offered to send her TO Parkersburg,
and TO give her a business education
If SHE WOULD BE HIS PET
until the first of June. He gave her
until that afternoon to decide and up
on meeting with refusal, told her he
would again make her an attendant.
/ said ! would rather work in
somebody's kitchen than submit. f"
She expected, she said. to be discharg
ed upon two occasions.
Mrs. Sommeryille's explanation Of
her fatty contradictory statements
concerning DIR. Stathers created a SEN
sation. She testified that while she
was sick DR.. Stathers brought the
written statement which he asked her
TO copy and sign, telling her it would
save her from notoriety. She was
helpless and did not know what to do.
She consulted Dr. Perry, Of the insti-
tuition, and he advised her to comply
and to state 10 the board that she had
done so under Influence, land the
board would readily see where the in
fluenee came in.
With reference to her affidavit she
said DR.. Snyder advised her to make
it, but that no promises had been
made and no pressure brought to bear
upon her.
Mrs Sommerville was asked about
report that she attempted suicide a
few days ago. She denied that she
had taken poison, but said that she
was told her picture would be in the
paper, and she said, ~ can't stand
that: | would Kill myself before |
would see it,.
Al this point the cross-examination
commenced, and Mr.. McGary's ques-
tion attacking the character of the
witness provoked an earnest and aerl-
monious argument as to the admissi-
bility of this line of evidence
On account Of the legal points en-
volved, the board adjourned until to-
morrow morning without passing up
on the matter.

ingenious mind have conceived; some
thing that does not merely represent
a bank account, but thought, care, and
the qualities that money cannot buy;
something out-of-the-way and I'M
dreamed of, and as sure as anything
can be sure to be without a duplicate
among the gifts. Such present is
worth more to the builders of the new
home, the founders of the new family,
than any Of the costly things that
they could buy themselves, and it not
only stands for that for which, in a
way, gold has no purchasing power,
for the long affection and preparation
but for the effort in which there is a
certain touch of the genius that evokes
wonders from the hidden and unfore-
seen.
But, after all, what do they care for

trouble in the world, go forward to-

Seeing another friend without an UNI
brella he invited him in out of the
wet, saying, ''There is plenty of room

he now had complete protection, as
he had to move the umbrella to the TO

IN CHOOSING WEDDING GIFTS.

For those in moderate circum-
stances, if the giver has money
enough, it is usually not difficult to
provide a present that shall be useful
and welcome and valuable. And for
those with whom we have sufficient
intimacy our knowledge of their tastes
and our freedom in consulting them
again make the matter easy. But
when it becomes necessary to make a
bridal gift to those Of whose tastes
we are uncertain, or to those who are
SO wealthy that they already have al
most everything the heart can wish,
who have silver and gold and jewels,
houses and lands, then the task be-
comes more involved, and really a
good deal more interesting.
To such persons a gift that simply
shows the expenditure Of money is
unnecessary and unwise; and if you
have not a superiority of money, and
they know it, it places you in fool
ish light. For a gift to such people
the world-that is, our corner Of it
has to be ransacked, and something
has to be found, curious or beautiful
or original and unusual, that only
research could have turned up or an

ODD OPTICAL PHENOMENON.
Can be Seen Frequently at the Delta
of the Nile.

The green ray" an optical phenom-
enon which has been made the foun-
dation of a story by Jules Verne, is a
fash Of greenish light seen as the limb
Of the sun rises or sets under certain
conditions of the atmosphere. The
sea horizon is good for observing it, but
the effect is occasionally seen in Alps
or other mountains, and, according to
Plot Bey in paper to the Academic
des Sciences, Paris, it is often to be OBJ
served in Egypt, from the point Of the
Delta to Alexandria or Suez, either at
rise or set of sun. The ray is dis
tinctly visible, and always of an emer-
aid green, which is brighter as a rule
at sunrise than at sunset. At sunset
when the eye can follow the effect bet
ter, the ray sometimes appears longer
and ultimately takes a blue tinge.
preceding the green ray at sunrise,
for example, by William Calf, near he
ruins of Memphis, not far from the
stepped pyramid of Saggarah. He even
thinks the ancient Egyptians were ia
miliar with it, because in monuments
of the fifth dynasty and others the sign
of ''Kha," representing the rising sun
has the outer streak of blue color and
the two inner streaks are green. Their
writings also speak of the greenness Of
the sun on rising, and they liken it 10
an emerald. 1t is evident from all
this that the "green ray is an object
i've, not subjective, Phenomenon, and
that the horizon of the sea has nothing
to do with it. Nevertheless, the state
of the atmosphere evidently has to do
with it, and that of Egypt, ordinarily
pure, seems to have much, for the ray
