Favors Acting in Time.

A brother in Sumter county, South
Carolina, writes in reference to the
state meeting of the union that it ap-
pears to be very necessary to have
such a meeting. Some of our trou-
bles are due to proerastination. We
wait until the cotton crop is made
before trying to finance it. Whereas,
if we would finance our farms on a
conservative basis for the first eight
months of the year more than half
the battle would be won, and the cot
ton crop would finance itself Our
local unions need to be made live
farmers clubs, where the second
aries of farm management will occupy
as large part of the discussions as
cooperation in buying and selling.

Sunshine in the Dairy Stable.

A farmer, whose cattle have always
been kept in stable on the north side
of the barn, we'll lighted and ventilat-
ed, had occasion to enlarge his stable
building the extension with a south
ern exposure, into which the direct
rays of the sun were permitted to
enter with no obstruction. He discov-
cred by accident, what he subsequent
ly demonstrated by repeated expert
ence, that the same creature in the
sunlight took on flesh more readily,
ate less and produced more than when
kept in the stable where the direct
sunlight never entered. Lore than
this, he proved conclusively that crea-
lures suffering with various diseases,
or reduced physical condition from di-
vers causes, recovered more readily
when afforded the energizing intiu-
ences of the sunshine,

If sheep of certsin breeding meet
your ideals you had better obtain as
much of that, blood as possible and
then continue along the same line.
If pedigree is of no value, why have
the worlds best breeders practiced
line breeding? They value it highly
because sheep whose sires and dams
are of a certain trype will produce
lambs with the same desirable char
acteristics. Although registered, GER
tain individuals may have a short
pedigree, their ancestors are practi-
cally unknown, and if with undesir-
able characteristics same will be in
evidence among the lambs sooner or
later. Although there are exceptions
to all laws of breeding, to be rea-
sonably sure of the best results you
should know that your purchases
have high class ancestors.

Sentiment should begin to crystal
lie in some plan to sell cotton on net
weight so that the farmer will not
lose more than at present for bagging
and ties. AS it now stands the tare
taken off the weight of each bale is
thirty pounds in European countries,
and twenty-five pounds in England,
while the actual weight of bagging
and ties is seldom over 21 pounds,
but often under that figure. The re-
duction to twenty-five pounds tare by
the English spinners last year was
brought about through the efforts OF
the Farmers Union and has resulted
in great saving to the cotton farm
ers, but the majority of the American
cotton is sold on the Continent and
hence the necessity for extending the
change to European spinners-

SOUTHERN
AGRICULTURE
The Prosperity Steam Roller.

Can anybody doubt that America is
to enjoy almost uninterrupted pros
perity when the achievements of the
farm are carefully considered? The
product of the farms for last year
alone is big enough to buy all the
railroads in the country.
The pessimist may say that one
year of good crop is not enough upon
which to base prophecies of good
times. Well, then take the last nine
years. In that time the farms have
turned off products worth $4,000, ,00O,-
O00-a sum so vast that it can only
be understood after careful analysis.
But it was enough to have kept the
prosperity wheels going around at a
rate never before witnessed in this
or any other country. And they are
still going. Crops this year will sell
for more money than ever before in
any one year.
The prices of farm products have
steadily advanced and last year
brought an average of eight per cent
more than in 1891, when they were
at the highest notch ever known.
The farmer of today kn3ws how to
make the land yield larger and bet
ter crops than ever before and our
agricultural wealth, which is the
basis of our prosperity, will grow in
long upward leaps.
Our prosperity will be permanent.
There will be little temporary OBJ
stacles like the bank shark scare last
fall, but the big steam roller of good
times will move on, fattening them
into obscurity without stopping long
enough to be seriously noticed.
And the farm is behind it all the
time.-American Farm World.

slouchy kingdom Though the in
jured bachelor could not know Of al
the changes taking place, still he fell

They really enjoyed the nursing
and their patient particularly appre
ciated having Miss Alice near, for hel
touch was delightfully."- soft. So, even
when the physician came, it was Miss
Alice who bandaged the arm. after II
was dressed.

When able to be around again II
was difficult to break an acquired
habit, so it happened that Mr.. Will.
liams went over morning and evening
for Miss Alice to attend to his arm.
One morning he did not come; in
stead the servant appeared with note
for Miss Alice, who read 1t with
alarm:
Il shall call this evening to sue fol
my damages. If it is not rendered me
an afraid must proceed to extreme
measures"
Miss Alice cried the better part OF
the day after the receipt Of the note
and Miss Lucinda for once was not
practical, so cried some also.
At seven that evening the door bell
rang and Miss Lucinda admitted Mr.
Williams and showed him into the par.
lor where Alice sat, openly fearful.
"Take a seat" she whispered
He sat down facing her, and took
her limp hand.
BLESS my SOUL" he cried; whats
the matter?"
Nothing" she exclaimed, and burst
into sobs.
81 wish you'd cry for me-" said the
bachelor huskily.
"Oh," she moaned, 1--WE can't pay
those damages, Mr.. Williams"
well, if you can't" said he, "can
you do something else? Can you ac'
cept the worn-out old valentine that
was thrown at your gate about a
month ago? Not worth picking up,
perhaps, old-fashioned and full OF
flaws, but most loving valentine"
With her cheek against the band
aged arm, Miss Alice cried some more
but there were smiles shining
through.

About Fertilizers.

A few simple fertilizer maxims> are
so important that they should be
fixed in the mind. Per cent is only
another way for saying parts in 100.
Fertilizers may be direct or indirect
in action. The former contains need
ed plant food, the latter enables the
plant to get food from soil or air.
Lime is not plant food under common
conditions; it corrects a bad condi.
ton of soil-sourness- and unlocks
soil materials. Sulphate of iron (cop.
peras), sulphate of copper (blue
stone), sulphate OF n,agnesia Epson
salts), and sulphate of lime (gyp.
sum), are among these indirect fer.

Miss Alice turned the hose on her
sidewalk to wash away the ashes.
All night long, however, the wind rose,
and the fourteenth of February dawned
bitter cold, and the water used for
washing off the ashes froze.
Miss Lucinda was in the kitchen
sitting ashes to resprinkle the pave
ment, when she heard her sister
shrek. Lucinda rushed to open the
front door, and saw Alice on her
knees in the street supporting the
husky shoulders of Williams, who was
shouting Justify: "This is your work!
Nice, isn't it? Always knew your con-
founded neatness would cost me my
life"
Alice could only sob in reply.
"Tll sue you for this, all right" he
beloved
BY this time Lucinda had ap-
preached, and now spoke authoritative
ly: "Well, it is plain you must be
carried into your house and doctor
sent for at once" Reckoning to the
bachelors man servant, who hovered
near, she instructed him how to assist
the injured man without causing I'M
necessary pain.
When Williams had been laid on a
disordered bed, Miss Lucinda made
him as comfortable as possible before
the arrival of the doctor. The Berry
girls set to work preparing bandages.
The doctor came, set the arm, ex-
pressed approval of all that had been
done, and left.
Williams heard this commendation
Of the maiden sisters, and after some
thought said:
IF you bring me through without
crippling me, will let you off as light
ly as possible"
This unexpected generosity over
joyed the ladies'. They took their reg

The King sent jewels dazzling rare
Unto the royal Princess fair.
Without smile or praise of gem,
She bade her maid recover them.
The deep blue eyes grew wistful, dim;
The Princess dreamt of one-of him
Nay, not the King or titled kin,
But of whom to think 'twere sin.
A simple couplet. sweet and true.
On card entwined with ribbons blue,
Unto his lass the plowboy sent;
Far, far into the night she bent,
In happiness to read again
The poets loving tender strain;
Again, again, she kissed each line,
Each letter of her valentine
