Potash Is Essential for Pecans.

]. L. A, Savannah, Ca: Our re-
marks in last weeks issue in replying
to Charles H.. regarding pecans, will
not bear the construction that you
have put upon them. If you had read
more carefully you would have seen
that our remarks applied to the Solu-
ton of Potash, according to certain
method. So that this very essential
element (potash) is in the soil natur-
ally, or is put there through the means
of kainit or other potash salts or cot
ton seed hull ashes that is all sufficient
We repeat that it is not essential to APP
ply it as a solution in the manner de-
scribed. That plan may be very good,
but experience has shown that it is not
essential to observe that particular
plan. We trust that j. l.. A. now I'M
derstands us. Potash is essential.

Cow Pens to the Last.

The COW pea is the sheet anchor of
Florida husbandry, says Florida pa
per. Florida soil may not produce one
250-pound pumpkin, like the prairie
states and California, but it produces
four pumpkins in year, and together
they will weigh $50 pounds, if not more.
One of those four pumpkins is COW
peas. And we are far from certain
that four pumpkins distributed
throughout the year are not better than
one enormously large one once a year.
Probably one of the greatest reasons
why COW peas have not been grown to
a greater extent for the dried peas has
been the destruction wrought by the
weevil. But since the discovery of the
efficacy of bissulphide of carbon as
grain preserver, it should be the en-
deavor of the thrifty farmer to grow
more COW peas than heretofore.
The COW peas is one of the most valu-
able crops we can produce. 1t is one
of the richest milk prodcers with
which we are acquainted, independent
of it's excellence as human food.
Though most varieties are too rank to
suit a refined taste when cooked alone.
yet when moderated with other ingre-
dients in the celebrated Southern dish,
Hopping John" IL becomes a relish
able as we'll as most nourishing food
for people performing outdoor labor.
The cow peas is one of those inlper-
ishable standbys of the Southern peo-
pie; which are like corn or sweet pota-
toes-always of standard value. Cow
peas are always as good as goli. They
are seldom worth less than 81 bushel.
often $I50 or 81. Among farmers who
know and appreciate a good Southern
living, COW peas are in request as a
feed for producing the richest, creamy
milk. Many consider that rice flour is
the best Matchmaking feed, but ground
peas are better, and there is no dan
ger of producing with these the in
furious results sometimes brought
about by cotton seed meal
In slavery days in the great cotton
growing states cow peas were extern
sively grown as a food for slaves. No
self-respecting negro would eat cow
peas to-day, If his means would allow
him to purchase anything more aristo-
cratic; but this must not deter White
people of common sense from employ
ing this most nutritious food product,
with the refinement of preparation
above mentioned. In our hot climate
the COW pea is much more approprl-
ate as a considerable part of the regi-
men than an unbroken diet of pork
pork three times a day, pork NIL me
time pork winter and summer. More
than that, analysis has shown that
peas and beans are really more nour-
ishing to a laboring man than any
meat except pork. Dried peas on an
average of eight analyses, showed l,6o5

RELIC OF KETTLE CREEK.

The Washington Chapter of the
Daughters of the American Revolu-
tion has received an interesting relic in
the shane of a cannon ball found on
the old battlefield of Kettle Creek, a
few miles from the town. 1t was do
mated by Mr.. w. NJ. Poss. whose faith
er found the relic on the old battle
ground more than twenty years ago. 1t
proves that artillery was used in the
battle and that considerable prepara-
ton must have been made by the Brit
ish for their march through Georgia.
An examination of the ball itself is in
teresting. 1t shows plainly that it
was nodded by hand. In size 1t is
about 2lz inches in diameter and not
more than one-third as large or as
heavy as those used by Sherman on
his march through Georgia. The
Washington Chapter Of the Daughters
of the Revolution has purchased the
old battle ground of Kettle Creek and
will soon erect on the spot a modest
monument in memory of those who
fought there more than a century ago.

A LESSON N vNIon,s,.

All signs now point to a settlement of
the steel workers strike by the operation
of the mills with non-union men The
mill owners boldly state that they will
no longer treat with the unions but
that union men can come back to work
If they will come as individuals. If the
great body of strikers We're heartily in
sympathy with the strike this policy of
the mill owners would be ineffective but
1t has been demonstrated by the action
of the Chicago men that the strike is
contention between mill owners and un-
ion leaders, not between the operators
and their men. There was no conten-
ton either as to wages or number of
hours but simply as to the right of the
unions to demand that none but union
men be allowed to work in the mills and
IN order to enforce this demand the I'M
ion leaders ordered a strike in viola
ton of an expressed agreement with
the mill owners that they would not
strike SO long as the present wage scale
was maintained. Wages and the num-
Der of hours called day are about the
only issues that interest the steel work
er himself, hence the grounds fo- per-
sistent rumors that the men not
in sympathy with the action of their
unions are ready to return to work on
the old terms even tho the union hence
forth be ignored by the mill owner
The whole struggle has been very
unfortunate one from the beginning. A
strike ordered to crafty the ambitions
