Hitherto Unrelated Story Of Genera
Arthur's Nearly Fatal illness on
Dispatch Boat After Paying
Visit to Savannah.

The people OF the United States
have hitherto never known how nag
rowly they escaped double presiden-
tial tragedy between the years 1881
and 1888 OF course the assassination
OF President Garfield was world
moving event But there was time,
a night in April, 1883. when for a few
hours the danger was grave that Presi-
dent Chester A. Arthur. who succeeded
Garfield, would fail TO respond to med
ical treatment. Had the apprehension
of his physician proved correct. then
for the first time I'm our history the
duties OF the Office Of president would
have devolved upon the president pro
tempore of the United States senate.
In April, 1883, President Arthur was
invited TO visit Florida. When the
citizens OF Savannah learned that he
would on that excursion approach as
close to Savannah as the mouth of
the river. they urged him with much
cordiality and earnestness to become
a guest OF the city. The president felt
that he could not refuse so cordial an
invitation. He reached Savannah on

when late seeding is necessary. the
rate of seeding should be somewhat
increased.
From 21a to 3 bushels of Red Rust
proof or Culberson and 2 to 21a BUSH

proper rates of seeding for the colder
portions of the winter-oat belt. When
the crop is to be used for pasture or
hay somewhat heavier seeding is ad-
visable than where it is grown for
grain. When used as a nurse crop
for grasses or clover, or when grown
with crimson clover or vetch, less
seed should be used than when oats
are grown alone.

about the weirdest and most lawless
community then existing anywhere on

lawless from carrying things on with

Why Eiihu 3. Washbvrne, President
Grants First Secretary Of state,
Resigned in Two Weeks 70 Be-
come Minister to France.

No comprehensive history OF either
Lincoln or Grant could be written
without the appearance many times OF
the name of Elihu B. Washburne. He
was one of Lincoln's closest friends
All through the movement that result
ed In Lincoln's nomination for and
election to the presidency he was in
intimate touch with Lincoln. When
Lincoln slipped quietly into Washing
ton for the Inauguration, Washburne
and William II. Seward were the two
men who met him at the railroad sta
ton and conducted him to his hotel:
and all through the war Washburne's
counsel was sought by the president
1t was due to Washburns's recon-
mendations that Lincoln nominated
Colonel U. s. Grant to be a brigadier
general. and many other times
throughout the war Grant had reason
to feel grateful for the friendship and
good onices Of Washburne, who repre-
sented the Galena Cnl.) district In
congress from 1886 to 1869.
After Grant had become president
elect. and when he was turning over
in his mind the composition of his
cabinet, he fixed at once upon two
men for places in It, One was Elihu
b. Washburne for secretary of state.
and the other was Gen. Jacob ID. Cox
of Ohio. for secretary of the interior.
He felt sure that Washburne, espe-
cially. would be pleased to be called
to the premier cabinet position. but to
Grants surprise this shortly turned
out to be not the case.
II appreciate greatly the honor you
have in mind to bestow upon me-"
was Washburne's reply when Grant
offered him the state department, but
/ should rather serve as minister TO
France. The situation in that empire
has been intensely interesting to me
for some time. | am sure that excit-
ing times await France. and | would
like to witness them at first hand as
our minister at the French court"
Thereupon Grant intimated strongly
to Mr.. Washburne that personally he
would greatly prefer TO have his
friend remain I'm this country in
charge of the diplomatic business of
the government; and he reminded Mr..
Washburne of the great prestige and
honor attached to the position of sec

0PEN-FURR0vv
Georgia Experiment Station De-
Wses Dat Seeding Method.


United States Department OF Agricul-
ture)
The Georgia experiment station .
aumber of years ago devised what is
known a. the open-furrow method Of
seeding oats BY this method the
seed IL sown in drills from 16 to -
inches apart, the ordinary single-row
planter or a specially devised drill BE-
ing used for the purpose. II desired. .
drill with fertilizer attachment may
be used and the fertilizer distributed
IN the burrows with the seed.
The seed is sown in drills or fur
rows several inches deep. SO that the
roots and crowns of the plants are 2
or inches below the surface The
rains and alternate freezing and thaw-
ing partially fill these burrows, but the
plants are still left well below the sur
face. Running the drills across the
usual direction of the winter winds Is
recommended by the Georgia station
as an additional protection, as the
slight wall of earth prevents the full
plants. Thus. II the coolest winter
winds are ordinarily from the north
west, the drills should run northeast
and southwest.
In a four-year test at the Alabama
station the open-furrow method of
seeding was compared with broadcast
seeding. The average yield for the
broadcast plats was 242 bushels to
the acre, while the plats drilled In
deep burrows yielded PA bushels
Drilled plats in which the burrows
were filled after seeding averaged 26.7
bushels. This station recommends the
open-furrow method on well-drained
land; on wet or very level land water
may stand in the burrows long enough
TO injure the crop.
The rate of seeding usually recon-
mended for Red Rustproof and SINH
lar varieties of oats when sown with
the open-furrow drill is bushels to
the acre. When sown with the ordi-
nary drill 21a bushels is about the
proper rate. Broadcast seeding re-
quires still more seed. from to 4
bushels being necessary. AS the Win
stools more than the Red Rustproof,
II may be seeded at a lower rate, from
1k to 2 bushels when drilled or 2h
bushels when sown broadcast. In the
northern portion of the winter-oat
area. where the danger from winter
