PARTY PLATFORMS.


Colonel Watterson of the Louisville
Courier-Journal gives the following as
his views on latter day party platforms
According to modern usage the
party platform is like pudding; it is
not meant for anybody to stand on, but
is to be taken inwardly and digested:
or, like a pOultice, intended to soothe
and put to sleep. Where there are no
doctrinal differences, real or fancied,
the making of a platform is as easy as
lying. 1t is as easy as the making of a
potato custard-just plenty of butter
and eggs and sugar and few potatoes.
Old Dick Thompson knew the trick to
a turn, But, if the winds of doctrine
happen to blow contrariwise, the thing
becomes complicated and difficult, and
where plain cooking would suffice
what the French call chef, an artist,
is wanted in the political kitchen: for
to fabricate out of conflicting interests
and theories a dish that will be &C.
cepted with enthuiasm by the diverse
company ranged on either side of the
table d'hOte-or that will, at the least,
deceive them in the matter of its real

perience and SKILL"

Good Rotation system,

A good rotation system is corn fol-
flowed by wheat, the wheat followed by
COW peas sown broadcast and plowed
in: next year cotton followed by oats,
sown after cotton is gathered, and af-
ter the oats peas again. This rotation
will improve the soils a shorter ro'
tation which is good is cotton followe /
By oats, and oats followed by Mexican
June corn and COW peas combined :;
then wheat followed by COW peas
again. This will build up the soil
faster than the other. When the value
of rotation with cow peas every third
year is thoroughly appreciated there
will be fewer exhausted and abandon
ed farms in the south, and less money
paid for fertilizers Exchange.

A Novel Telephone System.

A cheap fence telephone system for
farmers has been in use in Texas for a
long time. At Midland, on the south
eastern foot of the great "Staked
Plain, large number of outlying cat
tie ranches are connected with the city
telephone system in this manner. Some
of the lines are twenty-five to fifty
miles in length and according to Ole
source of information are even 100
miles long. The distance owing to the
angles are usually twice the airline
length, During ordinary weather they
render perfect service: in damp wealth
er they work rather poorly, owing to
lack of insulation. The practicability
of this plan has been known in that
section for seven or eight years. The
system had It's origin in Australia.

Young spotted him in the north OF Lu-

not been heard of positively since
about Christmas. Possibly he is com

of those Canadian school children, may
be able to deliver his envelope without
serious difficulty. Now, if General
Young will follow the messenger, he
may be able to get line on the Fill

CHANGE IN GEORGIA.
Farmers Using Improved Methods
and Making Money.

Mr.. Eugene 3. Harris, detailing in
the Macon Telegraph his observations
while on hunting trip on Flint river,
said
II was astonished to see the change
that has been made in the methods of
farming in Georgia. | travelled several
miles through the country on foot, and
in every direction as far as the eye
could see, on either side of the road,
was a vast unbroken stretch of green.
| do not believe so much wheat and
oats were ever planted in Georgia.
And [ saw farmhouses that were as
comfortable and cosy in appearance as
are Macon's fashionable residences. In
conversation with gentleman met |
asked him how he got the money he
evidently owned. He told me that he
made every dollar of it on the farm,
that he started life few years ago
without penny and with little educa-
ton. He owns several plantations and
is now on the market for more. From
what [ saw I could not help concluding
he must have been worth 100000, and
he is vet between the ages OF thirty
and forty. He is not an all cotton farm
err. but like his prosperous neighbors
he practices diversifcatiOn. He said
that every year he raised several hun
dred bushels of oats more than he
needs, but that he finds ready mark
ct for them; in fact, he says, they are
lust as merchantable at all times as
cotton, and there IS a great deal more
profit in them. Besides this, he plants
and harvest5 his oats during seasons
when the weather is agreeable, and at
the best cannot injure his stock and
also at time when his stock have
nothing else to do.
II was not down in that country very
long, but during my short stay | saw
enough to convince me that intelligent
farming is profitable. Southern

The Butterhy's Pocket.

The male butterflies have the proud
privilege of pocket, but the pocket Of
a butterfly is wonderfully made. 1t is
really an extension of the under wing
folded back on the upper side, but it is
exquisitely colored and marked like the
upper side, so that it is very hard to
detect, and no one has yet discovered
just how it is opened, although I'M
doubtedly the butterfly can throw it
open while he is flying.
At first glance there seems to be only
white or amber colored silk floss with
in, but examine this with a microscope
and you will find twisted ribbons, slen.
der rods shaped like a shepherds
crook, others jointed bamboolike and
flexible rods and tiny scales of various
sorts and patterns.
1t is known that insects have mar
velously keen scent, and it is believed
that all these odd little objects are per-
fume boxes and that the fragrance so
thrown abroad is a signal call to the
female butterfly, which may be wan
dering about in the air. 1t Is, to say
the least, very interesting guess, and
there is evidence to prove that butter
flies and moths are summoned from
distances by Odors that we would hard
ly notice.-PhiladelnhiG.. Times.
