Grounds for Divorce.

A tourist in the mountains of
Tennessee once had dinner with a
querulous old mountaineer who
yarned about hard times for fifteen
minutes at a stretch. why,
man." said the tourist, you ought
to be able to make lots of money
shipping green corn to the North
ern market" "Yes, 1 orter," was
the sullen reply. ''You have the
land, 1 suppose, and can get the
seed" Eyes, 1 guess So. Then why
don't you go into the speculation?"
No use, stranger" sadly replied
the cracker; "the old woman is too
lazy to do the plowin' and plantin'.'

The Preventive.
Johnston, S. G.

A well-known revivalist whose
work has been principally among
the negroes of a certain section of
the south remembers one service
conducted by him that was not en-
tirely successful. He had had very
poor attendance, and spent much
time in questioning the negroes as
to their reason for not attending.
why were you not at our re-
vival?" he asked one old man,
whom he encountered on the road.
"Oh, I dunno" said the back
ward one.
Don't you ever pray" demand
ed the preacher.
The old man shook his head.
NO." said he; "Icarries a rabbits
foot. ."-Lippincott's Magazine.

Slim Chances for Her.

A missionary, who was making
his way through a backwoods re-
gion, came upon an old woman sit
ting outside cabin. He entered
upon religious talk, and finally
asked her if she didn't know there
was a day of judgment coming.
"Why, no." said the old lady.
Il hadn't heerd O. that. Won't
there be more'n one dayw
mo, my friend; only one day"
was the reply. r.
"Well, then," she mused, i
don't reckon / can get to go, for
we're only got one mule, and John
always has to go everywhere first. :"

educating the public to paying
higher price for cotton goods, in
stead of spending their time, as
they have done, in seeking to put
down the price OF the raw material,
the situation woulG have been fal
more favorable for them. Persist
emily claiming, as most of them
have done, that prices of the raw
material were too high, they con,
vinced the buyers that cotton goods
ought to decline in price, and there
fore the price of the finished article
continued low while economic con-
ditions forced an advance in the
price of raw material. The specula-
tors who were credited with being
responsible for these higher prices
did not create these conditions. They
only took advantage of the situation.
THE Southern Representatives
and Se,ato who united few days
ago in urging southern cotton grow
ers not to sell at less than 13 cents
a pound may be open to some criti-
cism. They have been praying one
way, that is, for higher prices, and
voting another way. In the cam
paign for political capital, which
has been so vigorously worked dur
ing the extra session, some of them
have been doing as much as was
within their power to injure busi-
ness and thus to injure the cotton
grower.
1T is possible that the depression
in business, due in part to much of
this unwise political capital max
ing, will cause the south heavy
loss in its cotton, for if business
were as prosperous as the natural
conditions justify and as it would
be but for the hampering legisla-
ton of the day, even a 100000
bale crop would bring IA or l5
cents a pound. The world needs a
crop as large as that and could
readily absorb it alta price as high
as that.
ITO the extent that the Southern
Representatives who signed the call
to southern farmers to withhold
their cotton, aided in such legisla-
tive activities as were planned not
for the coed of the country, but
merely to make political capital,
they will be responsible for the low
er prices of cotton which southern
farmers may this year have to take.
But, coming back to the question
of the south's producing supply
of cotton sufficient for the worlds
increasing needs, the manufacturers
of the world are vitally interested
in establishing cotton growing on a
basis so profitable as to insure con-
tinued increase in population, for
otherwise we shall most certainly
see a decline in the size of cotton
crops and much higher prices than
we have yet had, with all the at
tendant evils which have harassed
the worlds cotton manufacturing
interests of the late year."

A Discouraging Outlook.

''In the Cumberland Mountains
of East Tennessee" the Honorable
Bob" Taylor says, "a good coon
dog is considered a valuable asset.
"A visitor once asked a native,
Bill Smoon, how many dogs he
had.
81 amt got but five,' said Bill,
dejectedly. Looks like never
kin git a start on dogs agin. 2"

sel OF oats sOwif M growing cotton III
September win produce from three
to four tons of dry hay per acre,
and add fifty per cent to the fertility
of the soil. This crop is cut about
the first Of May giving ample time
for corn or cotton crop.
Last year I planted cotton on
vetch, wheat and oats stubble, that
produced 2,2OO pounds of seed cot
ton per acre. Rye and vetch turn
ed under in March adds wonderful
ly to the crops that followed. This
green humus is a substantial food
for the soil and pays handsomely.
I hope The Advertiser readers will
not construe me as being opposed to
the use of commercial fertilizers. 1
believe in liberal use of them, but
only conformity with barn-lot ma
nure, green rye and vetch, vetch,
wheat and oats, pea vine stubble,
beans or any of the summer or win
ter legumes, turned under at the
proper time deep with the disc plow
if possible.
