Belayed Information. “Is there a man named Bailey liv ing in this neighborhood?’’ askid a man on horseback of a barefooted urchin standing idly before a cabin in the backwoods. “I dunno,’’ was the reply. “I’ll asl; Jim. Saay, Jim! is there a man named Bailey round hyar any place!” Jim was an older boy, who was playing with a lean yellow dog. “I dunno,” said Jim. “Ask Liz.’’ Liz was a tall, baiefooted girl stand ing in the cabin doorway. “I dunno if there is or if their aint. I’ll ask ma, Mn! There aim no fam’ly named Bailey round hyar, is there ?’’ “Not as I know of. Ask pa.” “Pa! Is there a family named Bai ley round hyar?” “Never lieerd of ’em. Ask yer | gran’ pap.” “Gran’ pap! Is there any Haileys round 1 y.ir ?” A grizzled old man came to the do.jr ind oeeped over the snoulder of i.iz. “Hey?’’ he asked. “Is the a man named Bailey livin’ round liyar? This man on the boss wants to know.” “There used to be,” said gran’ pap, j •‘but j dimno whar he lives now. I’li i ask gran’ ma’am.” And in a moraci tor two he eajtfe | back to the door and called out: “Gran’ ma’am says she thinks lie’s dead, but you ride on to the cabin at the fork of the road, ’bout six miles from hvar, an’ they kin tell you it lie’s and ‘ad or if lie amt, an’ whar he is.” “Rust,” the dread of the cotton grower, can be prevented.

If the word of the New York Journal is to be relied on, a yonng millionaire of that city, a youth of tho rich family of Pbelps-Stokes, is doing some uplift ing of the masses iu his own way. Ho will have the science of cookery and housekeeping taught to wivos and daughters among tenement house dwell ers. Mr. Phelps Stokes says he has dis covered that bad cookery is the under lying cause of nearly all the domestio rows in bumble life. He will bring peace and good temper by the introduc tion of the other kind. Who shall say Mr. Phelps-Stokes is wrong? In a building which was for merly a saloon and danceho-v in a Xew York tenement district the young man has initiated his practical phiiu. • -iropy. For the children there is a kindergarten. For their mothers and older sisters there are classes of cooking and housekeeping. The cooking classes number ten, meet ing at different hours. The cheapest, plainest foods are selected, and their proper preparation is earnestly drilled into the feminine tenement house mind. Object lessons in cleanliness and every detail of household work are given. The Phelps-Stokes theory is that when workingmen go home to palatable, nourishing suppers in an inviting home they will not want to go off and become drunk. The idea is tbe same old one, “feed the animals.” There is a reading room too. What is called the Penny Provident fund 13 connected with the establish ment. It is of the nature of a savings bank, and to this fund may be confided any sum, however small, for safe keep ing. It is interesting to know that the young philanthropist pays his own ex penses as ho goes. WHAT OUR CROPS NEED. Our crops need three main elements, nitrogen, phosphoric acid and potash. Different crops take up these elements in different proportions, but there is no crop that we grow which does not re quire them in greater or less degree. WHAT OUR LANDS NEED. The crying need of most of our lands is humus, that is, decaying vegetable matter, by which we enable the crops to appropriate the three needed chemical elements to the best advantage. HOW SHALL WE OBTAIN THESE? The all important humus must be sup plied from the farm itself in the form of stable manures, composts, by plowing under the various forms of vegetable and animal matter, which accumulate from year to year, and last but not least, by leguminous crops. These, when prop erly managed, perform three important offices. They gather the unused nitro gen fro;: tho air, deposit it in the soil, and also help to unlock the stores of potash and phosphoric acid lying dor mant in most subsoils. They furnish a crop rich in food constituents. When this is taken off the laud, what is left of stubble and roots lays a foundation for ; the humus, whi<?B“ every experienced j farmer knows, is the factor above aii j others which makes successful farming possible. Having by such means ob- ; tained the necessary humus and nitro- 1 gen it rema’ns for us to secure needed potash and phosphoric acid. These may be supplied in part by deep fall plowing, bringing up a little of the subsoil, going deeper each year, and by the frequent and fine pulverization of the soil during cultivation, both of which enable it to hold moisture and thus convert its ele ments to the use of growing ‘crops. If when the leguminous crops are planted they are given the necessary amount of phosphoric acid and potash for their best development, say 200 to 400 pounds to the acre, not only will their nitrogen powers bo increased, but when the stub ble and roots are plowed in, much of these mineral elements will remain and be just in right condition to be. taken up by the following crop. This is the most economical and at the same tune the most profitable plan for our worn soils. Commercial fertilizers, when used ale- * on such lands, act only as a temporary stimulous. The rotatin', vhi. > legu minous crops require, will gradually lead to the diversified farming so much to be desired. Diversified, intensive, rotating •OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT.
