Atlanta, Aug. J, 18U7.
The heavy rains during the latter
part of July have, in some sections of
tue state, worked injury to the bottom
land corn, and iu some cases have
broken over terraces and ditches, but
they came iu time to save tlie upiaud
corn, which was beginning to suffer se
verely from protracted drouth, and also
to greatly benefit every growing thing
"We have just returned from a rather
extended tour through the state and
there has rarely been a finer prospect
for bountiful crops than is promised the
present \ year. Almost without excep
turn, where \ a mail has u aa given rritra.i his hw per- npr
*oual , attention to ins business, , and i Jias.
farmed rati.,..ally, he is now about to
reap the harvest of his skill and Intel
ligeuce. It is only where the ruinous
tenant system prevails, where the owner
has trusted his interests to unreliable
and inuiffereiit renters, that we mark
evidences of neglect and of haphazard
farm methods. It is in such localities
that the results of careless preparatiou,
of injudicious manuring, of hasty plaut
iug and slipshod cultivation, are appar¬
ent in the stunted corn stalks, which
huve not had sufficient depth of well
brokeu soil in which to send down their
roots in search of food, and where
meagre supply of surface fertilizer has
been long since exhausted. The cotton
fields, too, give evidence of mistaken j
methods and crop starvation in the puny ,
plants whioh cover acres and acres of
the hard run lauds. It is also ou such
rented and neglected farms that another no
preparation is being made for
year. The wheat and oat stubble fields,
if such crops have been harvested, are
standing as when the grain was taken
t>ff. uo efforit having been made to plow
iu a orop of peas, that great renovator
of our worn lands. On these fields the
■weeds and bushes now hold full sway,
taking up the fertility of the laud, per¬
fecting seeds whioh will soon bo sent
broadcast on their missions of mischief,
end forming u mass of roots, steins and
brush, which will greatly hinder tho
subsequent preparation of the land for
other crops, it is too often the case,
even ou otherwise well conducted
farms, that this habit of turning over
the stubble fields to the dominion of
weeds and bushes until the spring
preparations begiu, has been allowed to
go on from year to year. No oue neg¬
lect gives the farmer greater trouble, or
results, as indicated above, iu more
actual waste of fertility. Where this
has been allowed and the laud is now
covered with a rank growth of weeds
and bushes, a good plan is to run the
mower over tho fields before the seeds
mature, but after they begiu to form,
leaving the mass of decaying vegetable
mutter just where it falls when cut.
It will act as a beneficial mulch to the
laud during the blazing, hot days of
lute summer, and will add something
of humus-making material when turuod
under in preparatiou for other crops. In
killing larger bushes and sprouts the
mattock should be used, and one blow
now is worth a half dozen struck iu the
spring. August is distinctively the
month for doing this work.

August is a month of comparative
leisure from the heavier faun work.
The grain crops have been harvested,
the corn “laid by,” and the cotton

THE FINISHING TOUCH,
Buw an American Art Student Electrified
a Berlin Audience.
i • It is probable that the youug
American who entertained a Berlin
audience unexpectedly one evening
half a dozen years ago may have set
up a studio of his own - somewhere
in thin country, and if he has I'll
guarantee that he entertains well, ♦t
said aa artist at the Lotos club one
night last week. “1 was iu Berlin
doing a little painting at the time,
and I fell in with a little colon}’ of
Americans who made my stay very
pleasant, i
“We dropped in to see a variety
show one evening at theReichs hal
len. The star performer was a light¬
ning sketch artist who figured ou
the hill as ‘professor, ’ He was a
tail, long hatred , man, with arms
that reached almost to his kuces. A
i arge ease l held liis canvases, and
rapi<1 i t y with which he worked
greatly pleased his audience. His rT .
arms worked like a windmill, and as
he swung them the paint flow off
his brush in a steady stream. The
result pp the cqnvfta didM t resemble
anything until, with a quick spit
spat qf the brush, he put a touch hero
and a touch there, and, behold, a
picture! The picture wasn’t a work
of art, to he siiro; but, then, the
spectators were by no means crit¬
ical. As the proteHSor’s anus new
around and his brush whacked the
canvas,-turning out new pictures in
less than half H minute, tile eiltliU
increased. The professor sat
down to test. A well diuosed young
man, very evidently an American,
called out in very shaky German:
“ ‘Oh vu, juuicsoui, orofessor vou areslowand mosiun «uu
your pjoturos are bad,
Cqiuu up ami try ono your^eU,
« V°U think su,’ vopitod the profess
or auaoringly.
“ ‘All right, ’ said the young man,
and while the rest of the spectators
were shouting and laughing at the
invitation he climbed up ou the
stage and took possession of the
‘ paints 1 and easel ,
‘*Tr l, wis was annarent <tppave.il that liKti he UO know
something about painting from tho
ease with which he handled his
brush. After two or three prelim¬
inary motions to limber up liis arms
he turned and bowed low to the au
dience in the professor s best mau
per. Tlie caricature was ajqireciat

1 he stood aside and the canvas on
whioll lie had been working was ex
, 1 * there wa8 si]e nce for a mo
j merit, and then came a storm f
jeers, in which even the professor
I joined. The cauvaa was merely a
blotch. Noi oven the wildest imagi¬
nation could trace any suggestion
of a picture on it.
“The American looked pained at
his greeting and then turned toward
his canvas. A surprised expression
pame over his face. That couldn’t
b« liis picture. The spectators were
j still jeering him when, as if if wtr fi
1 a second thought, he sprang to tho
easel and turned the canvas bottom
side up. The jeers were changed to
, cheers. Tho canvas now bore an ex
^client landscape, with no detail left
out. There wore trees, a stream, an
old Dutch house, and in the back¬
ground several cows. It had been
painted coarsely, but it was effective
an j far superior to anything that
the professor had turned out. While
tp e spectators were laughing at the
young American's ready wit he
sprang off the stage and, accompa¬
nied by several friends, left tlie ball.

Century Old I’iuno.
Landlord Carey J. King of the
Hotel Safford has quito a eurio. ity
in the way of an obi piano, says tha
Portsmouth (O.) Times. Mr. Kinj}
says tiiat it is probably the oldest
piano in this country. It is the
piiqa-rty of Ins wife and came into
the FRissession of her family away
back in the closing years of the
eighteenth century, when it was
purchased of the family of Govern¬
or John Sevier of Tennessee for the
Treat-grandmother of Mrs. King.
The piano was made for GoY'ernof
Sevier by J. btowart of Baltimore,
the governor presenting it to his
wife. It is a quaint old instrument,
finely finished off in mahogany, and
doubtless could tell many a roman
tie tale of the olden times if per
chance it were gifted with the pow
er of spet-ch. The piano is very low
end lias Hiveu legs, lhe keyboard
is smaller than that of the pianot
of today, covering only five octaves.
