for it if satisfactory.
This was four or five years ago.
In the meantime we have noted
the experience of others, and
after talking with an Alabama
farmer and getting his experience
we determined to give it trial.
We were discussing the merits
of various farm implements, and
we asked what was the greatest
labor. saving tool ne had on his
farm. "The weeder," he replied,
with emphasis. He said that it
had enabled him TO dispense with
hand-hoeing entirely, except some
hand thinning, and this was re
duced more than half. AS to
grass, he said he had had none
since beginning to use the weed
er.
Our experience corroborates
his, and we unhesitatingly re-
commend its use in the cotton
field as a great labor saver and
grass-destroyer, There are some
soils, however, that are not suit.
able to its use. On very strong
land, and on fresh stumpy land
1t would not work satisfactorily.
On stiff clay soil, in the event of
a packing rain, a steel frame
slant-tooth harrow should be run
In front Of the weeder, going
straight across the rows, and
then follow with the weeder 60
ing diagonally across. This will
stir every particle of the top soil
to depth of half an inch, ex
terminating all grass and weeds
while in the sprout. Should
another rain fall right away, 90

is dry enough 10 get on.
The point is to kill the grass
In the sprout or before it gets
rooted. Keep this up until first
of June, or until its further use
is inexpedient. 1t is the MAY
grass, or the grass that would
come with the cotton, that gives
the farmer trouble. We succeed
ed in keeping the grass d1wn
last year, and we would have
lost our crop but for the harrow
and weeder. We had to do some
hand thinning, but it was quick
ly done.
HOW TO PREPARE FOR wEEDER.
The land should be we'll pre-
pared TO depth Of six to eight
inches, the rows laid off and bed
made with four burrows with
small plow leaving bolt in
middle. Should rain fall, run
slant tooth harrow straight across
rows; if it does not rain, we
would run lenghth wise the rows.
In either case the bed made by
the four furrows will be visible

or three inches deep. We re
commend this because as it is

per acre In reducing the cost of
the cotton crop, is lessening the
cost of cultivation, and this Is a
matter of unusual Importance
just new to most farmers, owing
to the scarcity and high price Of
labor. And we do not hesitate
to say the cost of preparation,
plant ng, and cultivaAen can be
reduced one-third, or even one
half by the intelligent use of inn
proved farm implements.
Instead of one man driving one
mule in the preparation OF the
land forplanting, he should drive
two, or even four. We drive but
two now, but are looking forward
to the time when we expect to
drive four. We are waiting for
our mule colts to get a ii tie old
er. Again, four is almost abso
lutely necessary in heavy soils,
especially where the disc harrow
is brought into use. Mules are
cheaper than men, and most farm
ers could use more work stock
than they now possess, and use
them profitably, though we do
not advise buying them at pre-
vailing prices; they should be
raised on the farm where needed.
The matter of the cost of the
mules keep is not to be consid-
cred I; he will feed himself il we
drive him at the right time.
Haven't you realized the need
of more horse power-just after
harvest, say when peas needed to
be sown and all crops needing
work ? And many a time you
failed to get in the peas and
thereby lost a large amount of
valuable hay, not TO mention the
value they would have been to
the soil. And one man riding a
disc harrow, driving four-in-
hand, could have put in five acres
in day
This is one of the ways toward
which we are working to reduce
the cost Of production. 1t pro
vides for and insures thorough
preparation of the soil, and there
is more ease and pleasure in the
doing for both man and beast.
NO NEED TO HOE COTTON TO KEEP
DOWN GRASS.
What about hand chopping-
how are we to get along without
hoe hands How can expenses
be reduced here ? We say EN-
phatically that in no place can
there be g. greater saving of labor
than in this matter of hand
chopping of the cotton crop. In
fact, the band-hoeing can be en-
tirely eliminated.
How?

 Kelly uppercut Bonner with his left, and the miner fell in a heaD on the rich carpet which covered the floor. He was up at the count of nine. and the men mixed 1t furiously until the bell tinkled.
 Gradually Kelly wore down his man. When Bonner gameiy staggered up for the ninth round it was plain that he was beaten. But Kelly went at him like a mad bull. He knocked Bonner against table. upsetting it and land ing two of the excited clubmen on top of the fallen fighters. Bonner re gained his feet at nine, but the referee stepped between the men and declared Kelly the winner In recognition of his gameness $50 was collected and given to Bonner.
 4 new carpet will be needed in that room; even the pectators' shirt fronts were ensanguined. When they left the clubhouse some looked very much ashamed of tehmselves.

The Commercial Telegraph Union of
America is contemplating strike.
The men are chatting Under the treat
ment accorded them by the big com
panics and are stiffening up their lines
for the impending battle. The two
! big companies, the Western Union
and the Postal, are standing together
and, 1t is said, win practically merge
their business in the event of a strike.
Il was ever thus, and great is the
pity War seems to be nearly nat
awal condition of the race. peace the
exalted exception. Such appears to
be the course of history, such the law
by which the seemingly hal si law of
the survival OF the flttest works out
the upward progress of the race, not
indeed stopping at mankind. but ex-
tending to all life.
The other law, that stands in oppo-
sition TO the struggle for the good OF
self, isthe struggle for the good Of
others. This is the new doctrine, yet
It Is old
Strange as 1t may seem, both to-
gether work out the upward course of
the race Stagnation Is the law of
death, activity the law of life.
But IL does seem hard TO understand
the compensation that comes out OF
these unseemly struggles of labor and
capital. wherein the parties to the
struggle are often among the least OF
the sufferers. 1t is, however. Just so
in war. Those to whom no fault is at
tributed must suffer for the needless
ness of others
There Is very strong corrective in

lines and the principle of peaceful arbi
tration is winning much recognition,

It is the dawn of a higher intellectual
day. II Is the victory Of mind over
passion, the struggle for the good Of
Others, supplanting the struggle for
the good of self AS yet. however,
hand in hand with these march the
grim companion pieces. the struggle
for existence and the onward and up

ators and the companies may find
