1t ia a science, the study of Al
life time, in which you may|
exhaust yourself, but never
your subject. 1t is contest, a
duel or a melee, calling for
courage, skill, strategy and
self control. 1t is a test of
temper. a trial of honor, a
rewealer of character. lt affords
the chance to play the man and
act the gentleman.
1t means going into Gods
out-of- doors. getting close to
nature, fresh air, exercise, a
sweeping away of mental cob
webs, genuine recreation and
of the tired tissues 1t is cure
for care, an antidote to worry.
It includes companionship with

bales are consumed in the cotton
mills in our southern states, and
Az rest. about 10000. 900 bales,
n shipped 10 other places, a
laree amount Of it abroad. We
should endeavor TO increase the
humber Of cotton mills IN the
south and by degrees get into
the manufacture Of the higher
Masses of cotton goods, so that
All cotton manufacturers may
be- represented in the spindles
of the south. At least 1000, 600
bales % that which is exported
should bee kept for home manu-
facture as near TO the point of
production as business cOnsid-
erations will permit. Moreover,
we must increase the production
of our cotton fields We will
have 20 introduce n s G
farming. such as is pursued on
ihe farms of Europe. and IN
that manner the output of ouI
agricultural regions can be
very greatly increased. Al
