Blue Jay Kills a Baby.

Charles Haines, the baby son of III.
j. Haines, of Urbana, Ia, was
pecked about the head and face so
viciously by a blue jay, which at
tackled him while he was playing,
that his death resulted. The child
fought desperately to drive the bird
away and was almost exhausted
when his mother reached his side.
The bird then attacked her, but was
driven off. Blood poisoning resulted
from the wounds on the child's head.

Half a Billion Dollars In Hay.

Last year the product of our 3d.
100000 acres of hay fields and mea-
dows was 60,531,617 tons of hay,
having value to the farmers of
$516,000,000 in round numbers, saws
Farming. Is this sufficient cause to
congratulate ourselves? Let us look
little farther into the dry subject
of statistics. Through the greatest
producing States it was considered a
good year. The average yield was
one one.half tons per acre and
the average price $3.50 ton. Com
parisons between widely separated
States cannot be fairly made. For
instance, the high average price of
$16 per ton in Rhode Island is not
due to the superiority of the hay
there, but the fact that the local sup
ply satisfies but small fraction of
the market demand; whereas, the
low average price of 81 per ton in
South Dakota does not indicate in
ferior hay, but that the local market
is 80 fully supplied that the price
falls nearly, if not quite, to the
actual cost of production. All this
is very good for averages, but what
is more to the point is how much
does it cost to produce a ton of good
hay in the various States, and how
may we improve the quality and in
crease the profits?

Asthma sufferers Should Know Ihls.

Foley's Honey and Tar has cured many
GASES of asthma that were considered
hopeless. Mrs. Adolph Buesing, 7O1
West Third street, Davenport, Iowa,
writes: "A severe cold contracted twelve
years ago was neglected until 1T finally
grew into asthma. The best medical
skill available could not give me more
than temporary relief. Foley's Honey
and Tar was recommended and one fifty
cent bottle entirely cured me of asthma
which had been growing on me for
twelve years. If had taken it at the
start would have been saved years of
suffering" DR.. j. w. Bell.

Cotton Tree Latest Thing Out

Washington, July 23.-The cot.
ton industry of the world may be
revolutionized by a cotton tree, ipdi-
genous to India, says j. r. Spence,
of Deese, India, in communication
to the London Commercial Inteh,-
gencer.
MIR. Spence claims to have discov-
cred and propagated tree that will
produce annually from five to ten
pounds of clean cotton, superior both
in classification and staple to the
American cotton, and equal in classi-
fication to Egyptian cotton.
He further asserts that he has
planted more than 5000 trees to the
acre. Even the first years yield
from the young trees. says Mr..
Spence, averages from 400 to 500
pounds per acre, which is above the
average of Egypt.
Ii commenting upon the cotton
tree, Mr.. Spence is quoted as saying !:
cit is an astonishing fact that the
value of this trees product has not
up to this time been discovered by
any one in the cotton trade, notwith.
standing the fact that the tree has
been known to exist since the time
OF the mutiny, and probably for hun
dreds of years previously. The only
uses to which the cotton which it
produces has 80 far been put are the
manufacture of wicks for lamps in
Hindu temples and the stuAing of
beds and pillows. After carefully
examining it, unhesitatlngly ex-
press the opinion that it possibly
would ultimately revolutionize the
cotton cultivation of India.
81 sent samples to Bombay and
Liverpool, where experts in the for
,mer city classed it as sfine,' white in
color, staple II to II inches long,
and said it would spin up to COS. In
the latter city it was olassed super.
fine' color, white staple, 1 8-l6 TO II
inches in length, and valued at I to
Sd per pound above the price of
'middling' American.
cit will be seen that if one third
the cotton growing area of India
were planted with this tree, the re.
suit of the second year would be a
crop far in excess of that of this
country and America put together"

Gus MOODY Killed.

We notice from the Barnwell People
that Mr.. Augustus Moody was shot by Mr..
James Diamond in Great Cypress town
ship, Barnwell county, on Wednesday,
February 21st. Moody lived until Friday
night, March 2nd, at which time he died
at his home in the above named town
ship. An inquest was held the next
morning, and Mr. Diamond went to Barn.
we'll and surrendered to the sheriff. The
shooting was done with pistol, but none
of the details are given.
Mr.. Diamond was tried at court in
Barnwell last week, being in Jail only a
few days, and was acquitted, the Solicitor
consenting to verdict of not guilty. So
from this Diamond must have been atso-
lutely justifable in shooting Moody.
Moody was well known in Bamberg,
as he lived here at various times during
the past few years. He was continually
in some trouble or other, and was a great
fighter, especially when drinking. he
was about fifty years old.

Pickinr Partners By Toys,

No wonder the present social season
In New York Is called one Of caprice
and novelty, for even methods Of &C.
lecting partners at dinners and dances
have taken new turn, says the New
York Press. One hostess keen Tor
newer things" hit upon the idea OF IN
Producing mechanical toys as dinner
favors. But nrst they had to do duty
in another way. They were set In mo-
ton by the different women guests
and made their way In all directions.
When a toy touched the foot Of man
he became the partner of the sender.
There may have been heartburnings
when these tactless messengers selected
partners "all wrong" as some OF the
guests said, but the plan formed an
amusing deviation from routine.
