Tennessee papers are agitating a prop
osition to change the constitution so as
instead of two. 1t would be wise thing
to do. The unwise provision for a
quadrennial Legislature ought never to
prevail. A Legislature every two years
is seldom enough in these days of
change and to that extent the Alabama
Constitution is a mistake.

SOME FACTS FOR FARMERS

The horse produces about 55 to &C
pounds OF manure daily, the COW Go
to 20 pounds, sheep 3 to 4 pounds
and pigs z to s pounds. The
amount varies according to the feed
used and the age and condition OF
the animal. Rating nitrogen at 10
cents, phosphoric acid at z cents,
and potash at 5 cents, horse manure
is worth $2.25 per ton, COW manure
$3.50, sheep $500 and pig $500.
The droppings (liquid and solid) for
one year from horse would amount
to $40, from "a cow $50, sheep $2.25,
pig $500
A nervous, impatient or cowardly
man had better let the colt breaking

rich milk, which is said to make ex.
cellent cheese, the quantity of milk
averaging about tea-cupful at q
milking.
The reliability aud endurance OF
these animals is remarkable, making
them invaluable for transportation
service. This is proved by the fact
that they have now for several wears
been used to carry the United States
mails on regular routes with the
greatest success and in about half
the time required for dog teams.
They can also be ridden with sad
die, aud travel along contentedly
with a pack load of $50 pounds.
Thus while the original motive in
bringing the reindeer into Alaska
was simply to give the natives a per-
manent food supply, their excellent
adaptation to transportation pur-
poses Especially in view of the dis
covery of large gold deposits on the
streams of those distant Arctic and
sub -Artic regions), has caused them
to become an actual necessity for the
white man as we'll as for the Eskimo.

home. When l saw the splendid ad-
vertlsement that California and Texas

their own magnificent opportunities.

A SENSIBLE LETTER.

The following letter from w. IL
Baylor, the well-known barber OF
fredericksburg, published in the
Nea0s- Leader, is a sensible article:
Your editorial of August 30 con
cernlng utterances Of a Negro paper
published in Richmond, concerning
the Stateboro horror, surely has the
approval of all law-abiding citizens,
white and black. AS colored man
| write this as mark of apprecia-
ton of your able aud sober remarks
L appreciate, especially, the part OF
your editorial which says that such
utterances do not represent the atti.
tude of the respectable colored peo-
pie of this grand old State of Vir.
ginia. The very fact that paper
advising negroes to resort to such
means has been allowed to flourish
In Richmond is sufficient guarantee
of the character of the community
in which it is published. The good
white people of Virginia are not
roasting human beings nor will they
allow it in her borders. can't
imagine why such a piece should
have been written. / know of several
instances where this State has gone
to great expense to protect negro
prisoners.
| have lived North and South and
have long since come to the conclu-
sion that there are no better people
on earth than the white people of
this State. My experience has taught
me that if you do right they will
treat you right.
The idea of advising negroes to
defy law and order!
The only tie that binds us Is the
efforts on the part of law.abiding
whites and law-abiding negroes to
uphold the laws. Break that tie and
a grand commonwealth has been
transformed into q veritable hell.
Thanking you for your kindness,
and hoping you will never have the
cause for such things in future,

WOMAN SAT ON HIS LAP.

For sitting on the lap of man,
Mrs. Mary Walsh, of Camden, N. j.,
was held in $500 bail yesterday.
She weighs more than 500 pounds.
Harry Carle, her victim. weighs ITO
pounds. His friends advised him to
bring a charge of attempted murder,
although believing he could not have
survived had Mrs. Walsh sat much
longer, Carrie said the facts did not
warrant more than a charge of as
sault and battery.
The Justice was undecided wheth-
er sitting on a mans lap constituted
assault, but as Carle insisted that he
was suffering from the effects of his
experience, he decided the case was
one to go to jury.
According to Carle, he tried to pre-
vent Mrs. Walsh's son from making
noise in front Of his house. Later
Mrs. Walsh appeared when he was on
his front step, and threw her 300
pounds into his lap.

HUSBANDS.
A fellow named Slade

a fellow named Slade
Went en- a TRADE
And kicked his wife into the gutter
She riz in her might
And swatted him right
In the eye with pound of soft butter
received a letter the other day
asking me to write an ESSAY on
Husbands" | have never been q
husband. Which accounts for nv
being a single man at this time. II
had ever been husband I'd prob
ably be twins now.
husbands are a peculiar critter
All families have at least one hus
band among them, and husbands are
quite different from married men. A
husband has more authority in his
own home than his wife's mother
A married man can't even call his
pants his own. A married man
sneaks out to the stable to smoke. A
husband stalks into the parlor with
a cobpipe in his mouth and if his
wife objects swats her over the head
with the family Bible.
Husbands were first invented fo,
the amusement of the women folks
Married men were invented for wo.
men to hen-peck. A woman decides
to carry man who will be a hus.
band after the ceremony. She never
lets him know it. Probably she
snubs him two or three times Just
Tor luck. Then first thing you know
the man lays siege to her heart-not
knowing he has 1t already-and after
a proper amount of monkey business
she marries him aud therefore he is
a husband with all the rights of such.
and If he happens to come home earlS
IN the morning with his collar round
his ankle and his stick pin in his
ear, she doesn't send for her ma.
Not her! She puts him to bed and
looks after him, and puts cold towels
on his head and calls him "poor
boy, and such like names. Because
he's a husband.
On the other hand, the young chan
who is some day to become a married
man, gets his eye on woman whom
he would like for wife and in less
time than 1t taxes a politician to
evade an issue he has married her.
And ever after he's married man,
and if he comes home late with a
Jag, he sleeps in the gutter with a
delegation of green lizards, and the
next day her ma comes and camps
on his trail and his life is one grand
triumphal song thereafter sadly out
of tune.-R G. Bob, ia IconOclast.
