FAIR AT TROY.
Exhibits This Year are of Unusual
 Interest.

Troy. Nov. 5.-(special )-Sunday night the long drought was broken by drizzling rain, which lasted good portion of the night. rms was, indeed very comforting, for the very dry weather and excessive dust promised to make the Street Fair, commenelns tnis m4sn- osn- ing. anything but agreeable. But the weather has cleared up, the dust settled, the weather is cool and bracing and the carnival has opened in all of its glory. The most inter- esting feature of the fair is the poultry, stock agricultural. flower and culinary ex- hibits under the general snperyisshi3n of ars .ns tainly the best ever shown in the state There are between seven and eight hundred isiana Tennessee, Alabama and Georgia pr Stephen T.

owner could no longer make q living by his methods has been taken in charge by men who have studied farming and who apply their knowledge, just as a man ap- plies education and information in any other pursuit. Under this new and en- frightened plan the worn-out lands. which were practically worthless generation ago. are now yielding good crops. and richly repaying the farmers for the care and intelligence bestowed on them. Yes, agriculture is not only a noble and a life-g giving occupation, but it is fast be- coming scientific one. The time has passed in this country when the land must supply both the food for the crops and the brains to cultivate them.
 There may still be some parts of the country where the earth 'is here so kind, that just tickle her with a hoe and she laughs with harvest" as Douglas Jer- rold puts it, but those favored regions are scarce and are becoming scarcer. The tillable lands of the States and Territo- ries are all being taken up and put into cultivation, and the farmer who depends on the methods of fifty years ago is bound to fall behind his neighbors who unite industry with science and skill.

INGENIOUS FILLING.
How the California Farmer Protects
 His Fruit from Frost.
Peansonls Magazine.

PedFSOniS NlaedH1iit.
 The commonest and simplest method of protecting fruit is called ''smudg- ing" and consists in raising fog which is dense enough to prevent loss of heat from radiation, and which also will pre- vent the fruit. when chilled at night. from becoming too suddenly heated when the sunrises. for this IS how the fruit is damaged when frost lays hold of 1t. The buring of damp straw or green wood will soon make 8 good fog. At intervals dur ing the night one of the hands on the ranch will have to turn out to see that the fires are kept smoking. Various portagle 'smudges," or smoke raising in struments, are also in use.
 Another popular method Is that or heat ing the air by large number of little fires placed at intervals. The fuel, char coal or coal is often suspended in wire baskets, each holding several pounds.
 In some ranches windbreaks have been put up with great advantage and have caused currents of air to flow where otherwise there would have been stag nant pools such as would certainly cause frost. On one ranch well planted wind breaks protects the trees within about 20 yards.
 In an orchard on a large ranch at Riverside. Gala. the experiment was tried of raising the temperature by turning on steam. The plant consisted or thlrty- five horse power boiler and main pipe, from which. at distances of 40 feet' small pipes branched off at right angles. The temperature was raised three degrees by this agency.
 One of the latest devices for protecting the citrus groves from frost consists of pumping streams of hot water down long troughs running through an orchard. In some citrus groves the fruit IS sprayed with cold water just before the frost ends at daybreak. This prevents the frozen fruit from being spoiled by thawing too rapidly. Some tall ''sprinklers" at the top of 50-foot poles have been erected by one go-ahead ranch owner.
 Another curious and thorough though expensive means of fighting frost has been adopted in the shape or elaborate structures of lath screens, which are erected over the trees. These act much like hothouses would do ,and prevent the cold layers of air from settling around the tender, luscious fruit at night ume,
 The drawback to this method IS US cost, which amounts to something Ike $4OO to the acre. Other methods 10 pro- vide extemporary well ventilated not houses are also in common use. In Florida, for instance, 1t is customary 10 protect the trees with light tents or can vas or of muslin when the weather bureau officials issue warnings Of coming lrosts

ural diet does not disprove that natural. that is to say usual, food is best It only shows that they are aa liable as man or any other creature to morbidity of appetite. From a more scientific standpoint any animal that is we'll devel- oped can extract support for his body out of either the vegetable or. animal king dom. Weight for weight, nuts and peas contain much more of sheer nutriment than any meat. and they are natural enough foods in the sense that they were used by primitive man; but meat Is also natural enough, since man became a hunter early in his savage days. The moral seems to be that meat eating in the first instance was morbid, but has become second nature, and the same de- velopment might quite, well happen in the case of certain animals if circumstances should favor it. Fortunately, however, the discussion of the possibility is mere lY academic.

SCIENTIFIC FARMING.

A writer in a late magazine declares that farming depends nowadays much more on the farmer than on the land" and he states truth which is every day becoming more evident. The time has been, within the memory of many now living. when the tiller of the soil expected the land to do practically all. He planted the richest land he could get and when it began to fail to produce good crops he abandoned it and cleared new field
 Scarcity of land and agricultural edu- cation have combined to banish forever that plan of farming in most parts of the country, and the people are beginning to learn that farming is a science, and that success depends on studying the best methods and applying the latest scientific discoveries. Many an acre of land which had been abandoned because the shiftless

HORIZONS LEAVING THE SOUTH
The Number of Elders in That Section
 Now Greatly Reduced.

Savannah (Ga.) News.
 Savannah will be without a Mormon elder after today. Elder l. w. Clagg or the Church of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints, will leave for Atlanta, and it is not at all likely that any more elders will appear in Savannah for some tune to come.
 Elder Clagg says that he leaves a Sum day School of sixteen Mormons It had been his intention to remain in the city until Christmas but when permission to sell Mormon literature without license was refused by City Council he had to give up.

N it will be the first time in the history or the church that members of mob have been brought to trial for having used the lash on preachers of the Mormon doctrine. It Is not because the elders have not received some very warm re-' ceptions, but because never before hays any of those who were guilty Of the crime been arrested. MT; Clagg says that he has received notice from Att lanta that the Governor did as he prom ised he would, and that several of those engaged in the assault on the two Mor- mons will go to trial in Atlanta, where the prosecutors say they will be able to get justice.
 Strange as it may seem," said Elder Clagg, in nine cases out of ten the mobs are led by ministers. We have no trou- way country places, where the ignorant live, that we are molested. There the people are easily led against us by any minister who chances to take into ms head that we are a menace to the public morals The mob in Hart County, am informed by my brother elder, was led by a minister. self, I had a close call in a Virginia hamlet about two years ago, and the muzzle of a six-shooter was dangerously near my face. On that occasion a min ister took part in the proceeding A gentleman of the cloth and town mag istrate called upon me, and with the re- yolyer under my nose persuaded me 10 leave the neighborhood. That was the only occasion upon which l was ever in- terfered with I am pleased with the showing we have made in savannah, somewhat under difficulties. It is in the country, and not in the city, where we have the trouble, however.

Avoidance of the Issue.

Springfield Republican.
 If the Republican leaders cannot now find 1t in their tender, friendly souls to cross one single overprotected interest even so far as to adopt the generally picayunish reduction of the Kasson treaties, how much better are the recom- mendations of a reciprocity commission likely to fare at their hands? The com mission suggestion is significant simply of a policy of delay and avoidance in the matter. And this is all that the coming session of Congress promises just now The last counsel of President Mo- Kinley will continue, no doubt. to be highly honored to the word. but other wise ignored. Let well enough alone is the answer MT. Hanna and the party in Ohio are making to it.

Governor Toole of Montana declares that the Montana boy has an ambition above teaching school" We do not know of course, just how high the ambition of Montana boys scars, but there are but one or two occupations or professions among the inhabitants of earth which are nobler or of more importance than the teaching of those upon whom the duties and responsibilities of our civilization will soon be laid If those boys prefer to be workers rather than teachers, no one should censure them for their choice, but we may be pardoned for doubting if the Governor used exactly the proper ex- pression in speaking of it.

Speakers are Doing Good Work for New Constitution.

Bay Minette, Nov. 5.-(Special )-There was a very large and enthusiastic crowd at the court house last night to hear speaking on the ratification of the new Constitution. The speakers were Hons. John R. TOmpkins. John w McAlpine, State Solicitor, and F.. M Rob inson. They spoke in the order named. The first two spoke for about forty minutes each and put the question of the adoption tf the seemed almost impossible for a sensible man to oppose it. They were followed by MT Rob- inson, who is a Baldwin County boy by birth, and who is one of the best orators in Ala bama. With his eloquent appeals and straightforward manner of explaining the pro- posed new organic law he held his audience spell-boun for an hour and thirty minutes, closing with an appeal to those who were present attending court from all over the county to go home and work for ratification until the polls close on the l tn.
 Hon, s. c. Jenkins spoke to large audi last night and it is said that he made a number of converts He also addressed the people of Dolive for thirty minutes at noon today.

 The New York Sun and The Nashville Banner have had a spat over the word ''servigrous" The Sheffield Reaper takes a hand and maintains that the word is ''savigrus." the root being the noun "savage," and that the word has changed from "savagerous" to ''savigrus." But The Reaper is really little tender. and concludes:
 We pass it on to The Montgomery Ad- Vertiser, who can do the diversified Vir- ginia dialects generous justice besides entertain The Norfolk Landmark at the same time. :~5--
 The Advertiser declines to get itself mixed up in any discussion of pigeon English, or Virginia English, which The Reaper intimates that the word in ques- tion must be. We prefer to deal in the pure and undefled English, ''as she is wrote" and spoken by scholars in Ala bama. where the best specimens of good language can De found. We like to prod The Landmark occasionally, because it is always good-natured and entertaining. and because We like to stir it up and watch 1t kick. So We pass the word on to The Landmark.
