A woman farmer down in Ala'
bama writes thus to her country
'paper:
‘‘This year # you know hns been
no year for a test on our farm, but
in spite of evey drawback I have
made about thirteen bales ot cotton,
four and one-half barrels ot syrup,
400 bushels of fine potatoes, pea
nuts by the wagonful and other
things too numerous to mention.
The potatoes were made on less
than an acre of land, the syrup—
180 gallons-.on huif un acre, a
quarter of an acre netting $*7
worth of syrup."
Nothing of the pessimst or cal
amity howled about this womun
farmer. She should serve as an
example to some men farmers who
are waiting for prosperity through
the be-it-enacted method. Ot
course this woman had advantages.
She has escaped drawbacks which
ads to some white men’s burdens.
No waste of valuable time on poli
tical haranguei; no drums at the
corner groggery; no whittlings of
pine boxes in front of a country
store; no fingerings with the loun
gers at the postoffice to lament over
hard times; no idling of time in
town or the court house; no loun
ging around the station to see the
trains go by. She escaped these
onerous duties and therefore
had more time to devote to her
farm and household work. This
of course gives her a great advan
tage over the gentlemen farmers
who deem it u pleasure, if not a
duty, to shoot squirrels in the morn
ing, hunt rabbits in the afternoon
and read the Silver Watchman in
the evening. It was our purpose
to commend this female furmer,
but come to think of it, she has set
a bad precedent. She is out of
her sphere. She hns wondered be
yond her orbit. No woman has a
right to. make a success of farming
while so many men are failures in
the business.

good than all the medicines I ever used.
They have also kept my wite in excellent
health for years. She says Electric Bit
ters are just splendid for female troubles ;
that they are a grand tonic and invigora-
