While Oldham cannot claim to have
any one of che twenty-five biggest cot
ton mills In England. 1t is the premier
cotton town for all that, since 1t is
pretty safe to say that 1t has more cot
ton mills to the square mile than any
other town In the world. The Oldham
people are peculiar. They are steady
and thrifty while they work. but, bent
on pleasure. they want all they can get.
An oldham family was returning
from the annual holiday at Biackpool.
and one Of the daughters told the
mother that they ought to have stayed

nIah, and Left Handed Plants.

Do you know that there are right
handed and left handed plants? An
English investigator, r. 81. Compton
has thought the matter curious and ir
teresting enough to make 1t the sub
ject Of extended investigation and has
reported on 1t to the Cambridge Philo-
sophical society. He observed eight
varieties of two rowed barley to de-
termine the ratio of rights and lefts,
in the first, leaves of seeds Of different
varieties ard of the various kernels
from the same individual spikes, and
found that among 12.401 seedlings
1881, or IS SO per cent, had the first
leaf twisted to the left. A variety OF
miIlet showed an excess Of left handed
seedlings, as was also the case with
oats. In the case of corn the ratio
was almost unity, and there was APP
parently mo inheritance Of right and
left handedness as notwithstanding

j. A. Coleman, Of the Nineteenth
district, has an article in the Dem
ocrat this week discussing the
drainage question. He seems to
think this question has been ne
elected by the Democrat and
others who discuss questions Of
public interest. This is a big
problem Mr.. Coleman springs on
us. We have known for years
that there we're thousands of acres
Of fine land in the county that
could be made valuable by a pro-
per drainage system. 1t not only
takes money, but big money to do
this and where is it to come from?
We, like Mr.. Coleman, would be
glad to have some one tell US how
it can be done. Our columns are
open to such information.

What we NBeQ

Mr.. Editor, / have seen some
thing about almost everything
else in your very good paper,
but you and the people in gen
eral seem to overlook the most
important thing to the people Of
Carroll county and that is the
drainage of our bottom lands by
cutting canals straight down the
bottoms, touching the bed Of the
creeks as often as possible.
Now, let's see what good this
would be to the people Of Carroll
county9 1t would reclaim thous-
ands of acres of the finest land in
the county that is good for moth
ing now except to furnish firewood
and outside pastures. With this
land drained the county would
blossom like a rose, poverty would
vanish like magic, our barns would
have to be enlarged, corn would
be shipped out by the car load in
place of being shipped in, We
would not be bothered with the
mosquito with his germ-laden bill
to give us malarial fever. We
would get health as we'll as wealth.
People seem to 60 wild about
everything but what is best for
them. Almost every paper you
pick up you see something of the
Memphis-t to- Bristol highway. Now
we are not able to build the Mem
phis-to- Bristol highway, nor any
other highway as to that, and
never will be until we get our bot
tom lands drained. / might say
some people are school crazy.
AS farmers we cannot send our
children to school more than four
months a year until we get more
and better lands to work than We
have now. Get this down in your
day book please so you won't for
get.
Mr.. Editor, don't think / am
against schools, for | am not, but
il living must come first, school
next, then drain our wet lands;
then we will begin to build good
roads or anything else we want.
Perhaps you have formed che con-
clusion that / have a lot Of bottom
land / want drained for nothing
No, | haven't a foot of bottom
land, nor any nearer than one half
mile; but then | could rent bottom
land for corn, seed my hill land
down to clover and thereby get
some benefits.
Will some one kindly tell me
how to get drainage district, get
ting state and federal help9 Will
some one please tell me why we
watch politics SO close and yell our
tbroats sore over the Memphis-to-
Bristol highway. Men, young and
old, can't we get together some
way, somehow, and do something
along this line first; then we will
be able to build roads, for our
taxes will double, we will make
twice as much to sell. and do it
with less work. | would like to
hear from some one better posted
than myself on this subject.
Mr.. Editor, If you want to help
every man, woman and child in
Carroll county and also yourself,
you will give us a little space in
your valuable paper to discuss this
most important question.
