In many parts of France heavy machinery is run by ariosi in wed power. The deeper the well, the greater the pressure. A well at Gre- neile has a pressure of six pounds to the square inch, and the water :s so hot that it is ■sod for heating the hospitals in tho vicin.ty. The S ock Quickly Profitable pig is emphatically the poor titan’s friend, though it should be supplemented by tiie cow. .More meat can be made from the pig with the same feed than with any other animal. Besides, pigs breed so rapidly that even a small stock is quickly increased, and it is an animal that is always saleable at some thing near its market value. Flour in Bran. Experienced feeders have learned that the bran having tho largest amount of th ur in it does not make '.he beHt food for stock. This flour is mainly starch, anil is what peopl. largely live on, but the shrewd feeder ef stock wants something better for his animals. Spring wheat bran has a larger proportion of * nitrogen matter than that from Winter wheat, and, though many do not know the fact, it is the most valuable for feeding. The Ripening of Fruit. It is said by those who have tried it that a dressing of potash in available form is an ex cellent application for grapes and other fruits in seasons when ripening is delayed. The difficulty is in forming the seeds where con siderable amounts of potaah are needed. If this is supplied the ripening goes on apace. Another ail vantage of potash manures forfruit is that they do not stimulate excessive growth of wood, as barnyard and stable manures of ten do to tiie lessening of fruit production. Feeding Bran With Meal. Experienced breeders know that fattening animals forced too fast become cloyed, and not only do not receive full benefit from their food, but it becomes clogged in their stomachs, and actually does harm rather than good. It is a well ascertained fact that only the parti cles of food brought in contact with saliva are digested, ami in whole grain or grain meal this food is too compact to allow tho saliva to penetrate it. .Just here is where a small amount of bran is s?> beneficial. It is light and porous, serving in Winter much the same purpose that fresh grass does in Summer. Ail feeders know that a little meal given to fa- tening animals at grass has a wonderful ef fect. ‘ The green herbage is not only nutritious - .rfq.i to oc itertclent in potash for any crop, and this deficiency is apt to be one reason why oilier manures do not produce full effects. But in the orchard there is apt to lie lack of available potash whatever the char acter of the soil. The seeds of fruit require potash for their development, and failure to provide it is one reason why the crop falls off or becomes mildewed before maturing. Vine dressers in France often use no manure for their vineyards except potash. They burn all the trimmings from the vines and return the ashes to the soil. In this country if any fertilizer is to applied to the vineyard’ potash is likely to be the last thought of. Old apple orchards always need more potash, and this should be applied with other manure. Hence the great value of ashes—a valuable fertilizer, which, on most farms, is thrown away as waste. Tho Pig ns a Mixer. The pig's usefulness as a mixer, turner Rnd finer of the manure heap need only be alluded to. There seems to be a value given to ma nure worked over by pigs, which neither the theory of the philosopher nor the crucible of the chemist, can account for. Vet it is posi tively (here. Florida Oranges Against tho World. Advices from tho orange markets are to the effect that—notwithstanding the glut of Cali fornia ar.d Mi diterranean fruit—the great want of the people is fresh, juicy, Florida oranges. Even russets command fancy prices, and strictly fiqe fruit brings from .?6 60 to §8.50 per box. Of course the supply is very limited; but the fact that the inquiry is so great, while tiie markets are full of other fruit, is very grat ifying to Floridians. ' Stay on the Farm. There is a great deal or truth in the sub joined article, taken from the Texarkana (Ark.) Independent. There is no life more in dependent than that of a farmer; and there is no pursuit in life that affords such complete, pleasant and healthful exercise for all the physical powers and mental faculties of man than the intelligent cultivation of tiie soil. Says the Independent: The professions are crowded, are over stocked. Too many young men want to study law or medicine, and many a good farmer is spoiled to make a very poor lawyer or doctor. The mercantile business, too, is overdone. Too many young men are leaving good situa tions on the farm to hunt for less profitable places behind the counter. The agricultural interests of the country are being neglected, and young men have taken up the delusive idea that distinction can only be obtained in the Btudy of law, medicine or mercantile pur suits. They have foolishly concluded that eveiy farmer is a clod-hopper. Not so. There is no pursuit so honorable, nor is any man so independent as the industrious, sober and at tentive farmer. It is the grandest calling of them all. Lawyers, doctors, merchants, and “all else,” are dependent upon the success of the farmer. It is a high and noble calling, and wo regret to see so many worthy young men flocking to the towns, and Boon acquiring habits which will injure their lives and detract from their usefulness to society. Young men, if you would be prosperous and happy, stay on tho farm, nake it a science, study it, learn tiie history of plants and seeds. It is suscept ible of study, as much so as law or medicine. Some of the loftiest intellects known to history were farmers, and Many of our greatest states men rose from the plow handies. Remember these facts, young men; and remember, too, that an industrious, Bober farmer always com mands the respect and confidence of the bal ance of the world. Farmers and Railroads. The attitude of the farmers of the country towards tho railroads is truly and well defined in the following which is found in the “Decla ration of Principles’’ of The Patrons of Hus bandry. The subject is now more prominent ly before the public than ever before: "We wage no aggressive warfaro against any other interests whatever. On the contra ry, all our acts ard all our efforts, so far as business is concerned, are not only for the benefit of the producer and consumer, but also for all other interests that tend to bring these two parties into speedy and economical con tact. Hence we hold that transportation com panies of every kind are necessary to our suc cess, that their interests are intimately con nected with our interests, and harmonious ac tion is mutually advantageous, keeping in view tiie first sentence of our Declaration of Princi ples of Action, that “Individual happiness de pends upon general prosperity. * * We are not enemies of railtoads • » nor of any corporation that will advance our industrial interests. * « We are opposed to such spirit and management of any corporation or enterprise as tends to oppress the people and rob them of their just profits. We are not en emies of capital, but we oppose the tyranny of monopolies. * * We desire proper equal ity, equity and fairness; protection for the weak; restraint upon the s rong; iu short, justly distributed burdens and justly distributed power. These are American ideas, the very essence of American independence, and to ad vocate the contrary is unworthy of the sons and daughters of ait American Republic.” Texas Farmers In Earnest. The following letter to the Timcs-Democrat from the Secretary of the National Farmers’ Alliance and Co-Operative Union explains itself: Natioxai. Faiimbb’s Ali.ianck ash Co-Or j kuative Uniox of Ameuica, ( Waco, Tex., March, 28, 1887. To the Editor of the Times-Ilemocrat: I see in the Dallas News of the 21st, copied from your paper, an editorial suiting that there App es and Apple Trees. The following brief, but well-considered ar ticle, with the above caption, is contriouted to the Lynchburg (Va.), Virginian, by its ag- ticultural editor. The apple can be profitably cultivated iu almost every part of the Union; but it can he raised in the greatest' profusion aid iu the highest perieuuyu plcted, careful attention to the trees, and in the selection and preparation of tho fruit for market, the region mentioned can compete with any other in every respect. Following is the Virginians’ article: Will it pay to grow apples for market, doubtless a question which, in these limes unprofitable farm products, many a man debating with himself. It is a question, toe, that needs careful consideration before the irrepressible fruit agent comes round and in sists, will heniil-he, that it shall be answered in the affirmative. If one were to draw a con clusion from the experience of the winter of the winter of 188(5, when, iu the New England slates and along the Hudson an enormous crop of apples was in many instances left hanging on the trees or lying on the ground, bi.cause it would not pay for the picking, and when it was asserted iu the agricultural press that not a few orchards had been or would be cut down one might decide that something elso wouid be a more desirable investment. On the other hand, the experience of the win ter just past, during which apples were com paratively scarce and high, would incline to the opposite conclusion. The truth is that the supply of apples, like that of all other produc tions, is in some years far more abundantthau the demand, aud consequently low prices ob tain, but in off years and on an aver age, they are at least fairly remuner ative. 1 hen it is to be considered I comparing them with cereal or other crops, that once in full bearing they do not re- | quire any labor or expense in cult vation the only outlay being in picking and marketing. Besides there are other uses to which they can frequently be put—in converting them into cider or vinegar, or feeding them lo swine— when the market is such as not to admit of shipping. We are persuaded, however that there is no season in which, if the proper va rieties have been selected and such as are adapted to the market for which they are de stined, and if the finest and largest specimens only are sent, they will not pay a reasonable profit. If, though, you are not going to plant the trees on the best soil you have; if you are not going to give them thorough care and cul tivation till they are of a bearing age; if you intend leaving them iu grass and weeds un kempt and uutnmmed, to be browsed upon by horses and cattle, tell the agent to pais you by, that you can pasture your stock on some thing cheaper than apple trees. The time has gone by when apples could be planted on bieak and stony hillsides, without regard to exposure or moisture. The climatic conditions have changed to such an extent that too much care cannot be exercised in the selection of a loca tion. Even in as flat a country as Illinois B. F. Johnson, a noted agriculturist of that State has for some years contended that orchar is oil the higher locations are dying out from expos ure and want of moisture, that his observa tions have convinced him that trees on the lands even where the water stands, are the longest lived, and the most vigorous and productive.

De- Witt Talmage, I). 1)., read from the book of Proverbs some lessons about honest thrift. He then gave out the hymn beginning— The strife will not be long— This day the uoise of battle, The next the victor’s song. The boy choir chanted an opening and clos ing selection. Dr. Talmage’s discourse was entitled “Behind tiie counter, or, trials and encouragements of salesmen and saleswomen.” lie took the two following passages as his text: “And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Tbyatira, which worshipped God, heard us; whoso heart the Lord opened.’’—Acts xvi; 14. “Siestthou a man diligent iu bis business? He shall stand before kings.’’—Proverbs xxii; 2'J. The preacher said: The first passage introduces to you Lydia, a Christian merchantess. Her business is to deal in purple cloths or silks. She is not giggling nonentity, but a practical woman, not ashamed to work for her living. All the other women of Philippi and Thyatira have been forgotton; but God lias made immortal in our text Lydia, tbe Christian saleswoman. The other text shows you a man with a head, and hand, and heart, and foot all busy toiling on up until ho gains a princely success. “Seest thou a man diligent iu his business? He shall stand before kings?’’ Great encour agement in those two passages for men and women who will he busy, but no solace for I hose who are waiting for good luck to show them, at the foot of the rainbow, a casket of buried gold. It is folly for anybody in this world to wait for something to turn up. It will turn down. The law of thrift is as inexorable as the law of the tides. Fortune, the magician, may wave her arm in that direction until cas tles and palaces come; but she will, after awhile, invert the same wand, and all the splendors will vanish into thin air. There are certain styles of behavior which lead to use- excuse me.’’ He may flush up and swear, bat may as well say that yon merchants who have female clerks in your stores ought to treat them with great courtesy and kindness. When they are not positively engaged, let them ait down. In England and the United States physicians have protested against the habit of compelling the womanly clerks in the stores to stand when it was not necessary for them to stand. Therefore, I add to the protest of phy sicians the protest of the Christian church, and in the name of good health, and that God who has made the womanly constitution more delicate than man’s, I demand that you let her sit down. The second counsel I have to give to the clerks who are here to-day, is that you seek out what are the lawful regulations of your establishment and then submit to them. Every well ordered bouse has its usages. In mili tary life, on ship’s declf, in coinnercial life, there must be order and discipline. Those people who do not learn how to obey, will never know how to command. I will tell you what young man will reach ruin, financial and moral—it is the young man who thrusts his thnmb into his vest and says: “Nobody shall dictate to me; I sm my own master; I will not submit to the regulations of the house.” Be tween an establishment in which all the em ployees are under thorough discipline and tho establishment in which the employees do about as they choose, is the difference be.twceu suc cess and failure—between rapid accumulation an<l utter bankruptcy. Do not come to tho store ten minutes after tho time. Be there within two seconds after. Do not think any thing too insignificant to do well. Do not say: “It’s only just once.” From the most impor tant tram action iu commerce down to the particular style in which you tie a string around a bundle, obey orders. Do not get easily disgusted. While others in the store may lounge, or fret, or complain, you go with ready hands, and cheerful face, and contented spirit to your work. When the bugle sounds, ttie good so dier asks no questions, but shoul ders Ids knapsack, fills his canteen and listens for tiie command of “March!” Do not get tiie idea that your interests and those of your em ployer are antagonistic. His success will be your honor. His embarrassment wiii be your dismay. Exposo none of the frailties of tho firm. Tell no store secrets. Do not blab. Rebuff those persons who come to find out from clerks what ought never to be kpown outside the store. Do not bo among thoso young men who take on a mysterious air when something is said against the firm that employs them; as much as to say: “I could tell you some things if I would, but I wou’t.” Do not be among those who imagine they can build themselves up by pulling somebody else down. Be not ashamed to be subaltern. Again: I counsel clerks in this house to searcli out what are the unlawful and dishon est demands of an establishment, and resist them. In the six thousand years that have passed, there lias never been an occasion when it was one’s duty to sin against God. It is never right to do wrong. If the head men of the firm expect of you dishonesty, disappoint them. “O,” you may say, “I should lose my place then.” Better lose your place than lose your soul. But you will not lose your place. Christian heroism is always honored. You go to the head maa of your store, and say: “Sir, I want to serve you; I want to oblige you; it is from no lack of industry on my part, but this tiling Beems to me to be wrong, and it is a sin against my conscience, it is a sin against God, and I beg yon, sir, to fulness, honor and permanent success, and there are certain styles of behavior which lead to dust, dishonor and moral default. I would like to fire the ambition of young people. I have no sympathy with those who would pre pare young folks for life by whittling down their expectations. That man or woman will be worth nothing to church or state who be gins life cowed down. Tiie business of Chris tianity is net to quench, but to direct human ambition. Then fore it is that I come out this morning and utter words of encouragement to those who are occupied as clerks in the stores, and shops, and banking houses of the country. You say, “Why select one class, and talk to one specially this morning?” For the same reason that a surgeon does not open the door of a hospital and through in a bushel of pre scriptions, saying: “Come, now, and get your medicine.” lie first feels the pulse, watches the symptoms, and then prescribes fir that particular case. <io to-day I must be specific. Tbe people in tTspudience who are clerks are class. They belong to a ns of thousands who are in circumstan :es which will k them for l,me ami for nol an exceptior great company of tliis country, am - / either make or I ’‘tcnii* v IaJaouI' have already achii and a Christian their passpart to their trials. I ha' he will cool down, and lie will have more ad miration for you than for those who submit to his evil dictation; and while they sink, you will rise. Do not, because of seeming tempo rary advantage, give up your character, young man. Under God, that is the only thing you have to build on. Give up that, you givo up everything. That employer asks a young man to hurt himself for time and eternity, who ex pects him to mako a wrong entry, or change an invoice, or say foods cost so much when they cost less, or impose upon the verdancy of a customer, or misrepresent a stylo of fabric. How dare he demand of you anything so inso lent? There is one style of temptation that comes on a great many of our clerks, and that is up on those who are engaged in what is called “drumming.” Now, that occupation is just as honorable as any other, if it be conducted in accord with one’s conscience. In this day, when there are so many rivalries in business, all our commercial establishments ought to have men abroad who are seeking out for op- Tfiure can be uo portumties of merchandise, objeciion to that. But there are profaesed Christian merchants iu the week-night praycr- ile very slow to acknoyvl- I meeting who have clerks abroad in New York, - Cfaris«Ln Ue ^S :e ' “ l ° e £teal t<5Wfi; ,,r,1 " rVr ' ^manliness which will fie , . *^ al town, in orderlo secure their cus- Ymb Jr n‘n 8t °M' Jh , ere are iu • torC8 in New l ork aud Brooklyn, drawers in which there yourself to be s gentleman or lady. Remem ber, that if tbe prices are high and your parse is lean, that is no fault of the clerks. And if you have ar son or a daughter amid those per plexities of commercial life, and euch a one comes home all worn oat, be lenient-, and know that the martyr at the stake no more certainly needs the grace of God than onr young people amid the seven times heated as- pera ions of a clerk’s life. Then there are all the trials which come to clerks from the treatment of inconsiderate employers. There are professed Christian men in this city who have no more regard for their clerks than they have for the scales on which the sugars are weighed. A clerk is no more than.so much store furniture. No considera tion for their rights or their interests. Not one word of encouragement from sunrise to sunset, nor from January to December. But when any thing goes wrong—a streak of dust on the counter, or a box with the cover off— thunder showers of scolding. Men im perious, capricious, cranky toward their clerks—their whole manner as much as to say: “All the interest 1 have in you is to tee what I can get out of you.” Then there are all tbe trials of incompetent wages. Some of you remember when the war broke out, and all merchandise went up, aud merchants were made millionaires in six months by tbe simple rise in the value of goods. Did the clerk get advantage of that rise? Sometimes, not always. I satv estates gathered in those times, over which the curse of God has hung ever since. The cry of un paid men anil women in those stores reached the Lord of Sabaoth, and the indignation of God has been around those establishments ever since, rumbling in tbe carriage wheels, flashing in the chandeliers, glowing from the crimson upholstery, thundering in the long roll of the ton-pin alley. Much men may build up palaces of merchandise heaven high, but after awhile a disaster will come along, and will put one hand on this pillar and one hand on that pillar, and throw itself forward until down will come the whole structure, crushing the worshipers as grapes are mashed in a wine press. Then there are boys in establishments who are ruined—in prosperous establishments— ruined by their lack of compensation. Iu how many prosperous stores it has been for tbe last twenty years that boys wore given just enough money to learn them how to steal! Some were seized upon by tbe police. Tho vast majority of instances were not known. The head of tho firm asked: “Where is George now?” "O, he isn’t here any more.” A lad might better starve to death on a blasted heath than take one cent from his employer. Woe be to that employer who unnecessarily puts a j temptation in & boy’s way. There have been great establishments in tbeso cities building marble palaces, their owners dying worth mil lions, and millions, and millions, who made a vast amount of their estate out of the blood, and music, and nerve of half-paid clerks. Such men as—well, I will not mention any name. Bui I mean men who have gathered up vast estates at tiie expense of the people who were ground under their heel. “O,” say such merchants, “if you don’t like it here, then go and get a better place.” As much as to say: “I’ve got you in my grip, aud I mean to hold you; you can’t get any other place.” O, what a contrast we see between such men and those Christian merchants of Brooklyn and New York who to-day are sympathetic with their clerks—when they pay the salary acting in this way: “This salary that I give you is not all my interest in you. You are an immortal man; you are an immortal woman; I as interested in your present and your ever lasting welfare; I want yon to understand that if I am a little higher up in this store, I am beside you in Christian sympathy.” Go back forty years to Arthur Tappen’s store in New York—a man whose worst enemies never ques tioned his honesty. Every morning he brought all the clerks, and the accountants, and tho weighers into n room for devotion. They sang. They prayed. They exhorted. On Monday morning the clerks were asked where they bad attended church on tiie previous day, and what the sermons were about. It must have sounded strangely, that voice of praise along the streets where the devotees of mam mon were counting their golden beads. You say Arthur Tappeu failed. Yes, he was un fortunate, like a great many good men; but I understand he met all his obliga tions before be left this world, and I know Uailroab*. RAILROAD TIME TABLE.

A Suspicious Character. A prominent Austin politician woke up his colored man a few nights ago and told him to search the house, as lie was sure there was a burglar on the premises. The nan hunted the house all over and reported as follows: “Colonel, I lias hunted from top to bottom, and ef dar is any ’spishous character, ’ceptin’ you in de house, I can’t find him.” “What we learn with pleasure we never for get.”—Alfred Mcrcicr. Tho following is a case in point. “I paid out hundreds of dollars without receiving any benefit,” says Mrs. Emily Iihoads, of McBrides, Mich. “I had female complaints, especially ‘dragging-down,’ for over six years.

F’or instance, a great war comes. The manufactories are closed. The people go off to battle. The price of goods runs up. A customer comes in to a store. Goods have gone up. “How much is that worth?” “A dollar.” “A dollar! Outrageous! A dollar!” Why, who is to blame for the fact that it has got to be a dol lar?
