turned in to feed on the peas, while
a good crop of hay is harvested be-
fore the late frosts.
Soil Adapted to Broom Corn Raising.
Broom corn has not been cultivated
extensively, because the ordinary
crops have occupied the farmers up
to the present. But it is evident that
corn region as any in the State,
Counties north OF Alexander county
consider the broom corn crop the
most profitable one raised, and five
to six hundred pounds of brush to
the acre is estimated a fair produc-
ton Recent market quotations show
broom corn TO be worth nearly 5000
ton.
Ideal Place For Small Farmer.
Beyond doubt it is the place Tor
the small farmer. The adaptablity
of the soil for the growing Of truck
crops and the convenience of the
great market centers-Cairo, StLouis
Chicago, Memphis, Cincinnati and
Louisville-make it so.
Two crops of Potatoes a Season.
Potatoes are raised for an early
and late crop. The soil turns out q
clean tuber, free from rot and grub
and consequently the crop is in great
demand in the early markets Of the
, North The production is from 29t
| to 300 bushels to the acre, and two
crops may be raised, and often are
raised, on the same land In one sea
son.
Grasses Of all Kinds, including Alfaif;
Thrive Here
Timothy, blue grass, red-top ant
clover and alfalfa thrive in the coun
try. Alfalfa has become great ia
vorite. 1t produces heavy crops OF

The Single Star Flag.

The lone star Of Texas has fol
many years Afforded a subject inter
esting alike to the romantic poet
and the student of American history.
and concerning it many conflicting
statements have been made.
The first Congress Of the. Republic
of Texas met on Oct. 8, 1886. and
during the session adopted nag
and a national seal, which are those
now in use by the State Of Texas
The flag is of red, white. and blue
with a single five-pointed star Of
white. The seal Is star surrounded
by a wreath Of laurel and oak leaves
This was not the first lone star
flag" that was flung to the breeze In
Texas, however. In May, 1885. Mrs
Sarah A. Dawson, Of Harrisburg
Texas, presented very similar flag
to a company organized at that place
and commanded by Andrew Robin
son, and that banner few in the fore
front Of many of the flercest fights
for Texan liberty.
Many dauntless hearts In other
States heard the first Texan 6uele,
blowing. and Georgia in particular
hurried her sons to the war for in.
dependence. At Macon, Ca. on Nov.
II, 1888, battalion was organized
under the command of William Ward
and by the goth of the same month
1t was at Columbus, Ca, on its way
to the front. At the latter city the
command was presented with a
plain white silk flag bearing a single
fve-pointed azure star, by Miss
Troutman, of Knoxville, Ga. Ward,
the gallant leader OF this little band,
persisted at the massacrt Of Goliad.
and the battalion fell to the last
man.-New York Times.

NapoIeon's Poor Idea Of Women.

Napoleon was as cranky about
women as George Bernard Shaw, the
caustic unbeliever who says man
proposes but woman disposes. A new
book on the Little Corporal makes it
plain it cost him no pang to cast of
Josephine. We read that Napoleon
said: Women are at the bottom OF
every intrigue. They ought to be
kept to their household duties; they
should be forbidden to appear in pub
lie unless they wear wells and black
attire" Evidently II Napoleon were
alive today he would have no pa
tience with the belligerent suffra-
gettes. But that Is not the worst.
I'VE don't understand woman at all,
We western peoples" said Napoleon.
I'VE have ruined everything by treat
ing women too we'll. and we have
committed the great mistake OF plac-
ing them almost on level with our
selves. The eastern races display
far more wisdom and sense OF the
fitness OF things. They have declar-
ed women to be strictly mans prop.
erty, and. as matter OF fact, ma
ture has created them to be our
slaves. II is only by reason of our
perverted view OF things that they
dare to lay claim to any sovereignty
over us. They abuse certain advan-
tages they possess to seduce us and
then to tyrannize over us. For one
woman who inspires US with worthy
ideas there are hundred who cause
us to make fools OF ourselves" It
seems that experience cut pretty
deep In this great mans case.-New

Tho Criminal Arm.

According to DIR. Lombroso, the
criminal is a creature whose charac'
teristics approach those of the an
thropoid ape. One of the chief points
In the chimpanzee, the gorilla and
the rest is the enormous length OF
their arms, all of them having. arms
which reach below the knee. There
fore we should expect the criminal to
be distinguished by the length Of his
arm, and the question being one OF
some interest, DR.. Charles Perrier, a
french medical man, undertook to
examine into it. He conducted his
investigations in the provincial pris-
on at Mines, and has just published
some very curious results. He dis
covered that the great majority OF
prisoners have arms which are rath-
er shorter than those of the rest OF
the population, a fact which seems
completely to upset the theory OF DR..
Lombroso. But the objection was
made that criminals are Of all sorts
and kinds, and that some distinction
must be made between them. DR..
Perrier therefore classified his sub.
jects, and found that the ordinary
criminal, whose offences against the
state are those of cunning. usually
has short arms, but that murderers
and those who commit crimes OF
violence have arms which approx
mate to those Of the ordinary man
1t would seem, therefore, that the
criminal is short armed, and moi
long armed man. 1t is curious
fact that coiners have remarkably
short arms.-LOndon Globe.
