Gratitude.

AS the branches of a tree re-
turn their sap to the root from
whence 1T came as river pours
it's streams to the sea whence
its spring was supplied, so the
heart of a grateful man delights
in returning a benefit received.
He acknowledges his obligation
with cheerfulness he looks on
his benefactor with love and
esteem, and, if to return it be
not in his power, he cherishes
the remembrance of it through
life. The hand of the generous
man is like the clouds of heaven,
which drop upon the earth
fruits, herbage and flowers but
the heart of the ungrateful is
like desert of sand, which
swallows, with greediness, the
showers that fall, buries them
in its bosom, and produces
nothing. The grateful mind
envies not his benefactor, nor
strives to conceal the benefit he
has conferred. Though to OBJ
lige is better than to be obliged ;
though the act of generosity
commands admiration, yet the
humility of gratitude touches
the heart, and is amiable in
the sight of both God and man.

For the Enterprise.
From Van Wyck.

Mr.. EDITOR 1t having been
so long since you have heard from
me that | almost feel like asking
for a new introduction but when
one pauSes and thinks long
enough over the matter they can
very readily see at a glance why
those little free contributions from
the various township correspon.
dents are allowed to lap it is for
the want Of time from their reg
ular business.
Well the rain has ceased and
the farmers are all pushing their
business with all the energy they
are masters of. Much of the land
though has been plowed too wet
and those of our farmers who are
guilty of the charge will rue il
before they get their crops in be-
cause the soil is as sensitive of
wrong treatment as the human is
From what we can see and
gather from our intercourse with
the farmers the acreage in cotton
will be about the same as last
year--the amount of guano used
is about what it was last year.
The small grain crop is not
looking so we'll but the stand,
generally speaking is good and it
may come out and make a fair
crop yet.
We were building big hopes on
the fruit crop but fear the last
little cold snap killed a good deal
OF it. We presume, though, that
the crop of candidates that will
spring up will more than cover any
deficiency, not only in fruit but
any other crop, as this is election
year. This part Of the country
will have a candidate-and, let
them come, 1.-The more the mer-

Cotton Seed, Oil.

The South can produce an al.
most unlimited quantity of this
on, aud the question WIN US Is
how to get good markets for 1t.
Our 100000 bale crop OF cotton
means that 4,500,000 tons of cot
ton seed were produced In the
South last year. Cotton seed as
it comes from the gin yields by
the present methods Is per cent.
ef its weight of crude oil. The
last years cotton crop was capa
BILE, therefore, of yielding $780,
100000 gallons of oil, which at 25
cents a gallon, would be worth
about $4,000, 900. If we had mark
cts for all this oil mills would
soon be established to produce it.
At the present time we have in
the South only about 400 cotton
oil mills, with a capacity of be-
tween 100000 and 100000 tons
of cotton seed per annum.
Probably we are not pressing
out ree.tifths of the seed pro
duced each year. Last years pro
duct of crude oil is said to have
been something over 100000, 900
gallons. The demand for oil has
grown so rapidly In the past
years, we must believe that if
only these restrictions are re
moved it will continue to increase
for some time to come. The world
seems to want to use our cotton
oil if 1T can only get it at our
prices.
Cotton seed is now wholly used
up in manufacture. The products
made from it, besides the oil, are
the cake or meal, used for feed
ing or as fertilizers; the hulls,
used as hay, and the llnters, or
short cotton, which is used in
many ways.
If last years output Of cotton
seed had all been manufactured,
the relative value Of these pro
ducts would have stood about as
follows:
l8O 900 900 gals. crude OIL 25 cts. 1850 OOOO 900
500 900 tons Of meal at 500. ........3 SO 900 900
2 OOO 600 tons OF hulls at az ........ 1000 600
100 900 bales OF linters or short cotton 1000 600
Total ... 4y4 600 900
We see from this that the cot,
ton seed oil is about oue-half of
the value Of all the cotton seed
products.
1t should be remem bered, too,
that cotton oil contains none of
the elements which reduce the
fertility of the soil, and that hav.
ing so many other vegetable oils
and animal fats in this country,
We can easily spare a large part

Of this oil for the foreign trade.
All of our cotton seed meal and
all OF the hulls and all the cotton
had. best be used at home; the
inca! and hulls tn make meats,
butter and cheese for exports
and the cotton to manufacture
into goods for the foreign trade.
We will certainly have much OF
this oil to spare for a long time,
and should therefore do every
thing in our power to build up
the market for it.

The Waterloo Fraud.

It is reported that fraud which
was in vogue at the period of Water
loo has been revived in London in con-
nection with the war. Two city men,
on comparing notes, found that each
had been accosted in a northern su-
burb by middle-aged man with q
Bardolphian nose, who asked to be al
lowed to look at an evening paper.
On scanning the list of wounded he
seemed stricken with grief, and ex-
planned that he had ascertained that
he had lost son belonging to such
and such a regiment. He told piteous
tale of poverty, and said that his wife
was an invalid and that the sad news
would break her heart. Both of the
gentlemen were moved to give the
man few shillings, but they discov-
cred afterward that he had on each oc-
casion pointed out a different name in
the killed list!-Troy Times.

Boers and CRATES.

It is averred that the Beers are
chiefly responsible for the threatened
extinction of the giraffe in South
Africa. The giraffe is hunted for its
skin, which is extraordinarily thick
and tough. Specimens are sometimes
an inch thick, and bullets often fail
to penetrate it. Owing to the tough
ness of its skin, the giraffe can break
it's way through thorny Tickets
which hunters with, horses are unable
to penetrate. The giraffe was former
ly very abundant in South Africa, but
now It has become very scarce there,
and efforts are being made to protect
It by legislation. The Beers have also
practically exterminated the lion IN

HONEY IN A CAVERN.
Unknown Riches Found on a Re-
markable Game Preserve
Novelty Within . Novelty In the
Ozark Mountain in Mis-
sourl-Six Feet Of Solid
HOneyeomb.

A natural cave of honey is the latest
addition to the riches of Col. Moses Z.
Wetmore, of ST. Louis. This cavern OF
honey has just been discovered on Col.
Wetmore's 7,O00-acre game preserve
in the wilds of fancy county, 90 miles
south of Springfield, Mo. 1t is large
cave hidden from view in one OF the
mostisolated spots of the Ozark noun
tain region.
The bees have probably had undis-
puted possession of the cave for many
years, for it appears to be literally
filled with honey, just like hive in a
well-kept apiary. How far into the
side of the mountain this cave ex-
tends is an unsettled question. The
mouth of the cave is about six feet in
diameter and it presents front of
solid honeycomb. While the bees ap-
pear to be of the common species,
they are unusually hostile.
There are few wilder spots on earth
than the Ozark mountains in fancy
county. But few men have had the
bravery to approach the place. The
discovery was made by William Hunt,
who is in charge of Col. Wetmore's
game preserve as keeper. AS soon as
Hunt found the hidden treasure he
communicated with Maj. George H.
Mccain, of Springfield, who is asso-
ciated with Col. Wetmore in the own
ership and management of the pre-
serve. Maj. Mccain made trip to
fancy county to see the novel bee
hive, taking with him party of
Springfield friends. Maj. Mccain
made as thorough an inspection as
the hostility of the bees would permit,
and he is now devising plans for har-
vesting the honey. If this cave is like
the average Ozark mountain cavern,
it is all the way from one to two miles
in length, and if the honey is built
solidly from end to end, there are tons
Of it. The bees may have only woven
a web of honey at the front, or they
may have filled the entire space. This
is a question that will soon be deter
mined. for Maj. Mccain expects to
employ experienced beekeepers and
have thorough exploration. made.
This remarkable beehive is novel
ty within a novelty, for Col. Wet
more's preserve is well worth thou
sand miles of travel to see. The col
onel and his associates have stocked
1000 acres with game. They have
animals, fish and birds of almost
every species, but they have made no
arrangements for bees. Now that ma
ture has supplied that omission the
game preserve is menagerie such as
cannot be found elsewhere. A barbed
