but it will be q consolation to you to know
that he is getting every possible care. He
suffers much, but always with great pa

grace to bear the loss Of your son with
resignation. and may you be reunited to

Very sincerely yours

if every young man in the State who
intends to farm could take at least
one winter course at the A. & M. Col

pleased with it, and l also feel sure
that farming would be more profta
bic in this State than it is now. I
assure all who may wish to go to the
College that they will find all of the
instructors ready and willing to do
their part by them. / would advise
every young man who expects to farm

take the winter course, as | believe
that should be the first and best in
vestment for every young man to
make.

Tho Complaint of a Discontented Renter.

or and COTTON IdlI. IL say LILO
farmers belong to a ring is putting
tIa matter in mild form, looking
- i from the poor mans standpoint,
or os the man of means terms it, the
renters view.
And to give this subject truth
fuI airing it is prudent to give few
;IIustrations. In the first place, the
moor man goes to the farmer to rent
few acres of ground. He tells him
his circumstances; he has one horse,
one COW, two pigs-and probably has
neither. but for certainty he has
large family.
Well" the farmer says, 81 have
twenty-five acre field that has grown
ND in sassafras and locusts; if you
will grub it out, re-fence it, and put
if in corn, | will give you one-third
of it. You will put your pigs in the
pen. | will furnish stock to pillow it
I'D and cultivate it, and you can pay
me for the team this fall.
AS for your COW, / haven't the
pasture to spare. so you can sell her
TO me. and | will furnish you provi-
sions to live on while you make a
crop. | will try and spare you one of
nv COWS to milk if you will work in
the wheat harvest and pay me back
the pasture. or if you don't want to
do that, your wife can come and
churn. milk, ETC., and / will give you
all the milk you want"-which ends
this way:
The wife goes to milk: she is in
structed to let calves suck all they
want; then she churns and is told to
rour nearly all the milk in the farm
er's slOp barrel. Hence she goes
home after working a half day, and
takes a gallon of milk to house full
of children. who cry because father
has sold the COW.
The children go to mill for the
farmer; they help feed his stock;
they are continually called into SER
vice every time there is any work to
do; but the farmer never goes into
his pockets to reward them with a
penny.
He and his wife sometimes tell
them they ought to go to Sunday
school and Church, but they never
SO much as ask them if they have
clothes suitable to wear. So the poor
mans family goes to church in their
best clothes, which consists of a pair
of overalls and cotton shirt, the wo-
man in faded calico. On their re-
turn home, the farmers daughter re
marks: Il was ashamed of so-and-so;
they were so shabbily dressed. Why
don't they stay at home? / couldn't
but laugh at Mary's dress; it was
patched and made on the fingers. And
that little boys pants must have been
pair of his papa's trimmed down.
Oh, | was just tickled to death"
Now, how do you suppose the poor
children felt when they went home ?
They were far from happy. There
was load on their hearts-put there
by the heavy weights of slavery i'm
posed on their parents by the we'll
to-dO farmer.
The farmer soliloquizes and tells
other men of his class: II am giving
such and such a renter a splendid
chance"
Another man comes up and joins
IN: DO you let your renters have
stock"
NO, l haven't the pasture to
spare
DO you let them keep fowls"
Yes, oh yes. | let them have a
lew hens, but can't let them have tur-

The committee appointed by the
Florida Legislature to visit and report
the condition of the state asylum for
the insane has returned a sensation
al account, charging that the board in
charge of the institution is response
BILE for deplorable conditions and UNI
pardonable evils in the asylum.
The report declares that the institu-
ton is not a hospital for the insane,
but dumping ground for all kinds of
people, who are maintained at an
enormous expense to the state. No
systematic effort is made by treatment
given TO restore the mentality of the
patients, and the sick have not been
given necessary attention.

Missile Throwers at Philadelphia Not
After the President.

New York, Dec. 81 report in the
throwing of the missile which broke a
window in the presidents train near
North Philadelphia, last Saturday has
been made to Frank L. Sheppard. gen
eraI superintendent of the Pennsylva-
MIA. Mr.. Sheppard said last night:
1.-THE conductor of the train reports
that the missile was a plumb bob. The
missile was thrown through the VIM
dow of the coach near oxford street
just this side of Schuykill river and
within the city limits. It was thrown
from one of the bridges there.
IT is a habit of boys there to throw
stones at passing trains. In this case
one Of them seems to have thrown this
plumb bob. It is hardly possible that
the missile could have been thrown by
any one who had a design against the
president for it would be very difficult
to pick out any special car from the
bridge even were it known in which
one the president sat. We have been
figuring on how to stop the stone
throwing nuisance.
