 The McElhaney.
 It Is an old saying. and true one. that a good hotel Is city's best adver- tisement. Conceding this point, Auburn is certainly placed in a favorable n9n! It is the only hotel in the city. but that does not detract from Its home comforts. There is not a hotel in Eastern Alabama that affords more comfortable surround- ings or better table accommodations. m fact, 1t Is in the latter that the genia! proprietor excels. No one has ever left the inviting tables of this hotel but with the highest praise for its "chef."

storm dangerous points. Some officers
 were thus rash to gratify personal ann

While he was reasonably ambitious ne laid no claims to military genius nor tos brilliant display. but claimed for his com mand all the glory to which its achieve ments entitled 1t. He was found at ms post to do his duty which he did patri- otically and conscientiously. He was good Brigadier- General. Had there been more like him and fewer politicians and dead-beats promoted, as they were through political influence, the Confed- eracy would have come nearer winning It's independence than 1t did.
 After the war he returned to his chosen profession of teaching. in which he had no superior. He was man of most ex- tensive and varied information: He un- dtTstccd politics as political science and true statesmanship. but he never sought office. other than that of professorship or the Presidency of college, In which he was nearly always successful. Such offices were rendered him in number far beyond his ability to All. He was a ge- nial companionatle and attractive gen. tleman. always approachabie and highly but never fanatical; he did more for man. kind than for himself; his efforts were mere for the preparation of others for the useful vacations of life than selfshly to accumulate money and property. His was a useful life and we'll worthy of em- ulation. Wm. F. Perry lived to a ripe old age and served ably. faithfully and cor scientiously his fellow man, his coun- try and his God. All honor to his name for his many noble deeds.

The Use of Limo on Soils.

Probably more general misunder-
standing prevails regarding the use of
lime on soils than any other mineral
element which we apply A good many
still seem to believe that lime is Il ma
nure, and that its application takes the
place of nearly all other fertilizers. The
best way to diSpel this error is to state
at the outset that lime is not manure
or fertilizer and where so used Il Sc
rious mistake is made Lime put on
poor soils is generally waste of time
ard good material Ii never yet inn
proved poor soil unless the land was
Sour or overfed with humus which it
could not well digest
On rich soil however, lime has an
important function to perform, and it
can be made to do it with great sue
cess. Lime is more like a disnfectant
than anything else. One should apply
it to the soil much Ms man would take
some anti-bilious medicine. When the
soil is III danger OF getting congested
and heavy with too much plant food a
dressing of lime might well be applied
to help it. Consequently, we find the
use of lime in connection with clover
excellent. Glover crops add a great
deal of material to the soil, and some
times there is SO much in the land that
lime is essential to help its digestion.
As dressing on clover, lime pro-
duces the best results, especially where
the clover has had heavy stand for
two or more seasons. Land that is fed
heavily every year with barnyard or
green manure will be helped by
dressing of lime Sometimes the soil is
so rich, but congested with unassimi-
lated food, that a dressing of lime for
one season without any fertilizer is the
best thing for IT, Because Of success
ful work in this way some have appar-
entity got the notion that lime is a good
fertilizer. But it is not, and would not
have worked so wen on any other soil
that was not rich in manure to begin
willis. W. Chambers in American

American Coaches in south Africa.

The coaches used in South Africa are
built in the United States-at Concord
Most Of them hold twelve people inside
III rows of three, six people facing and
six back to the mules BY experience
we learned that the two corner seats
back to the mules are most agreeable.
Luggage on these journeys is a consid-
Grafton, as it is charged for at the rate
Of u shilling a pound, but each pas
senger may take Il rug-or blanket"
as they are always called-and a
small basket of food. The great OBJ
ject is to get as much food as possible
into a small space, for when we tray
eled We could only be sure of two
meals-one breakfast and one dinner
during the three days and nights of
continuous travelling
We made inquiries about the outside
places, thinking they might be prefer
able, but some fellow passengers, who
were old hands at such travelling, ex-
planned that when the coach upset the
outside passengers were those TO suf-
fer; the insides come off, as a rule,
with few bruises, the others getting
the broken arms and the like, and this
unbalanced our desire for the open
air. Not that one suffered from want
of air, for the coach has 10 windows at
all; glass would not stand the ioltng
for an hour. There is a tarpaulm that
one may unroll and pull down over the
windows when the rain comes in intoI
erably. The sun one must bear, for if
the tarpaulin is down it is too insuffer-
ably hot. IT. J. w. Davies, in Lippin-
colts.

The Bnver of Reef.

The buyer occupies position of con-
sequence in the stock yards COM
munity. lie is an expert, usually a
man of middle age, who has obtained
his education and technical ability
partly in the packing houses and part
ly on the ranch. An experienced buyer
is likely to receive a salary of $4,000 to
$4,000 a year, and he is worth all Of
that, for on his ability to tell, by
moments inspection. what quality Of
beef will be produced by a steer that
he never before laid eyes on depends
primarily the excellence of the product
issued by his house and hence the in
crease Of its business.
The buyers work is not arduous, and
to all appearance his task is n simple
one. He walks along the fiat board
laid along the top of the fence glanc-
ing keenly at the cattle i'll the different
pens. Some he passes by without q
pause, others he stops to inspect more
closely and occasionally he displays
his interest in group by asking a
question or two of the man in charge.
Long experience enables him at a
glance to distinguish between a grass
fed steer and a coln-fed steer, to de-
eide whether an animal is entitled to
be classed as fancy, good" or com
mon" and to guess within a few
pounds Of an animals exact weight by
glancing at him. The buyer makes
his purchases ION the hoof," paying
the market price ruling for the day
for the grade in which it is decided
each group OF cattle belongs. In few
words the transaction is completed and
the buyers interest in the affair is
ended -Leslie's Monthly

And sail for mystical shore
n the soft-winged shallop Of sleep we glide

That lulls to rest each throbbing woe
Our aching hearts may hide.
And though from afar no beacon CLEANS.
Nor mariner star sheds its guiding beams.
Yet ever the unseen ships go by,
Seeking the haven of dreams.
And when we've entered that haven fair.
The wonders untold that await us therei
Back IN the meadows Of childhood We
roam,
Basking again in the lovelight Of home.
The dear ones we've lost are with us once
more.
Just as We knew them and loved them of

And none ever doubts all is NOT as it seems
While we lnger entranced IN the haven OF

So It seemeth to me that sosoe shadow

And SAL in shallop like that we call sleep

Horses Preferred For cultivating.

Slow horses are sometimes preferred
for cultiyatng. but a fast walking
than the slower one. If horse travels
twenty miles a day and another TWEEN
ty-five miles in the same time for every
working day in the year, the faster
horse will travel 1900 miles more than
the other. When working a large field
Il horse may travel from fifteen to
twenty miles 4 day. and a difference Of
mile or two, when several horses arc
in use, is quite an item in a week
While attention has been given to the
breeding OF fast irotters and runners,
there is room for improvement in the
walking gait of horses.
