The American hen is one of our
greatest industries which fact is made
more palpable by recent reports sent
out by government statisticians of the
agricultural department.. These gov
erment experts report 1890, ,o0o, 900
eggs laid during the past year. These
eggs are worth in the market 9144,-
100000. In our own country alone,
there are varieties of fowl on the
farm worth &s5: 794 200. There are
50,000,000 chickens alone, which
produce, in addition to the egg sup
ply, poultry for table purposes worth
S136, O0o: 200, making an annual pro-
duction OF $3.50, 600, 900, or an income
OF 400 per cent on the investment.
From the amount of eggs and fowl
put on the Grenada market it would
seem that our farmers are sadly neg
lecting an industry that will bring
greater results than any other with
the same amount capital invested.
1t will even pay better than II or Is

The corn crop OF this year is esti-
mated at 2,3l3, 600, 600 bushels, which
means cheap corn next year for those
who will have to buy. Fortunately
very few Of our farmers will be buyers
next year, their crop being good. Big
corn crops means big ones of hogs,
and that is equivalent to plenty OF
cheap meat, a thing that our planters
are always glad to hear OF, as many

their plantations. The outlook for

is good. Those down this way are In

An IMPORTANT NATTER,

A question Of great import to the
State of Mississippi and one, which,
from present indications, viii present
itself for consideration to the legisla-
! ture when that body convenes in Jam
uary, is the insurance laws Of the
State. There is little doubt but that
the present laws relative to fire In
surance are unsafe and unsound, aud
need remodeling. It is claimed by
those agitating a general reform in
1re insurance that the valued policy''
law as 1t stands is dangerous, and that
IN actual practice it operates as a
premium on incendiarism. THIS law
provides that the full amount named
In face of the policy shall be paid in
the event Of the destruction by IRE of
the property insured; and It has been
held by the courts that where proper
ty Is insured for halt OF It's value-for
example, $5, 1000 on $40, 900 worth of
property-and is damaged by fire to
the extent OF half Of its value-S5,-
600 as written in the policy-then the
insurance company must pay the en-
tire amount written in the face OF the
policy. In other words the insurance
companies are made to carry the real
risk on $4,000 worth OF property
when they receive in return a premi-
um on but $4,000 worth. In conse-
quence the insurance rates in Missis-
sippi are said to be higher than those
of any State in the union, save that
of Florida. 1t is claimed by those
advocating the repeal of this clause
that there would be fewer fires il the
parties taking out insurance should
be compelled to carry some part of
the risk. If the insurance rates could
be lessened the results would come di-
rectly to the producer for this is taken
into consideration when the price is
made on his cotton.

INDUSTRIAL INDEPENDENCE.

Memphis News
The cotton crop Of the South will,
in its raw state, bring the people of
this section this year 1850, 900, 900,
perhaps. About one-fifth Of the crop
win be manufactured in the Southern
States and the manufactured product,
though consisting Of the coarsest
grades Of yarns and cloths, will add
largely to the value of the crude ma
terial. II the whole Of the crop
could be manufactured here and in
the higher forms 1t would bring us
at least ten times ~ much as we now
obtain and the South would become
the richest region of the world. It
is gratifying to knew that we are ap-
preaching that end steadily and that
We already have as many spindles as
the North.
Without the mills, however, the
cotton crop would soon make our peo-
pie the most opulent Of the Union il
they did not send abroad for their
supplies the greater part OF their COT
ton money. How this custom drains
the South and how it could be RENE
died in thus shown by the Montgomery
Advertiser:
''The truth is that the South is
largely the tenant Of the country and
the laborer for the rest of the world,
We grow a staple which exceeds in
value any other agricultural produc,
exported from the United States, and
we spend most Of the money for
something to eat, drink and wear.
II the half Of that cotton could be
manufactured here, we would be the
richest people on earth. II the South
raised all required food products, it
would be the richest section of the
Union. The half OF that million dol
lars day, il kept at home, would
make the South the most independent
of all countries. Why not keep it:
Why not raise our own food supplies
and make our own cloth and thread:
Why be longer hewers of wood and
drawers Of water for all creation? We
have good climate, unlimited motive
power and can do our own manufac-
turing. We have fertile lands enough
to raise our own supplies, and ought
to do 1t. Is it not time to strike for
economic Independence"

Governor Bates and staff, who visit

courage Of her soldiers, who fell dur
ing the seiRe OF vicksburg, have re-
turned to their home and are loud in
the praise of their initiation into the

1t is evident that as the people Of the
North and South are brought In touch
with each other, closer and more
hospitable relation is invariably the
result.
Gov. Bates, in speaking OF his trip
to Vicksburg, had the following,
among other nice things tosay, which,
was published In the Boston Globe:

turned from an Official trip more en-.
thusiastic than the one which came

can never forget the warmth and sin.

good people OF the South. The ladies'
who accompanied the delegation are
sounding the praises of Vicksburg and
Mississippi as only enthusiastic, hap
py women can. Last Saturday was a
great day for Massachusetts in the
South. The delegates believe that it
will also prove to have been a great
day for Mississippi in the North.
Gov. Bates said yesterday that he
had never received warmer, more
heartfelt greeting in all his life. We
enjoyed it to the fullest extent, that
warm, open, generous hospitality for
which the South has ever been
nOted.'''
