• a • AGRICULTURAL. 4- rARM WORK FOR FEBRUARY. The business now begins to demand *ll the energies cf the farmer wbo would lay a deep and broad foundation for a successful year’s work. While he can not loreee what manner of seasons are iti the future, he does know that the spring and summer uiH be either wet dry, or “s"a- -liable.” It i.i wise therefore to provide, m far as possible, against either •ztreme. It takes but ordinary skill to produce a good crop w hen circumstances are favorable, but it requires skill, ot high order, and sound judgment, to di: J count the ordinary drawbaeks in rho v a ot unfavorable weather. It is often said that a crop well planted is half made, and it is substantially true. But right planting involves good preparation, judi cious manuring, and careful selection of seeds, as well as the skillful execution of the mere details of the operation of putting the seed into the earth. It is a safe rule to adjust relative areas with reference to an ordinary average season, so that with such season, an abundance of provisions will be made. It is sometimes said that a farmer ought to plant an area in corn that will produt a an abundant supply even under the moat adverse circumstances. We think this a rather strong statement. There have been years in the experience of many when, if the result could have been cer tainly foreseeu from the beg ruling, it would have been better to have planted no corn at all; when the whole area of the farm would have sufficed to produce no more than an abundance. The better rule is to prepare the land and space the plants as if a dry season was in prospect. Then, if a good crop year should follow, nothing will have been lost by such precaution, while if drouth prevail the additional labor of preparation, etc., w ill be repaid tanfold. February is probably the best month for sowing spring oats. Only seed of early maturing varieties should be sown. The Burt oat, though of light weight per measured bushel, is much earlier than any well known variety, and will proba bly yield as great weight per acre as oth er kinds. It pays well to seed heavily and manure liberally. A crop that is expected to go through all stages of vege tation and growth in the short period of throe or four months, must be liberally stimulated and fed. If commercial fer tilizers be used, see that it contains a good percentage of potash and ammonia, in readily soluble form. Phosphoric acid, of course, is also requisite, but potash and ammonia seem to lie dominants. Cot ton seed meal furnishes an excellent source of ammonia, as it is quick enough in action and yet not liable to be leached out by heavy rains. The latter part of tin* month is a favorable time for the ap plication of a top dressing on fall sown small grain. For this purpose some high ly soluble salt of ammonia, or a nitrate, must he more efficacious than cotton seed meal, which is hardly quick enough when merely strewn on the surface. YY r e have little doubt of the propriety of al ways dividing the fertilizer intended for small grain into two doses, one in the fall at seeding, or within a few weeks, the other in February. Will some one try a top dressing of kainit on oats this spring and report results? In the Southern portion of the South ern world, February is the time for plant ing the thopical cane. Indeed it may be pi Hired earli* —it is planted at the time of harvesting „he previous crop in some sections— -but u may not be safely deferred The specific manure for sugar cane is tm dou'i: iiy pho-iphorlc ar:d; next, potash a - nl tin!’ A good suporpme.phate mixed wi ll k'tinit in the proportion of 1,500 pounds of the, former 500 of the latter, will usually give good results. Sugar cane is a heavy feeder, producing an im mense amount, of stalk ami blades, and must, be liberally supplied with food. One thousand pounds of the above formula would be a moderate application per acre. 11 has often oi eured to us that a crop like this, occupying the entire sea son of growth, should have two or more successive doses of fertilizer during its growth. ■frt-tfjb connection we will state that we were pleased with an experiment onee tried of planting sugar cane and early rose potatoes in alternate,three foot rows. The potatoes made a tine crop, and coining oil in the hitter part of June, did not seriously interfere with the oane. which would also have succeeded finely, but tor the exceedingly dr/ summer anil fall which succeeded. Of course the potatoes were heavily manured, as well as the cane, and the latter received the benefit ot such portions of the manure as had not been appropriated by the former. The plan of close succession—overlap ping of crops on the same ground, if judi ciously practiced, is worthy of trial, in connection with intensive fanning. It is the universal practice with the most suc cessful market gardeners; and what is in tensive farming but the methods of the gardener applied to the held, and to field crops ? The importance of securing, by pur chase or selection, the best seeds of all Crops for planting, is not likely to be overestimated. Indeed farmers gener ally do not give much attention to this matter. Avery small increase per acre, in quality and quantity, as the result of better seed, would, in the aggregate of the crop, more than pay for any reason able outlay of money in the purchase of seed, or care in selection. Let seed be ready before the hurry of planting time. Alter tVbuary has passed few changes are made in the plan of the crop. Let the very best judgment be exercised in providing tor an abundance of provisions and home luxuries, while it is yet time. It a tanner cannot so order his operations as to make cotton for less than a cost ot 0 cents per pound he had better not plant any. If his corn is to cost him as much to make it as the market value " hen made, let him plant no corn. And so oil with other crops. It is simply folly to plant with no prospect of reaping. It is hardly less w ise to spend more in labor, money and self-denial, to make a crop than it wil’ be worth. The Atlanta Constitution, In a long article relating to B. B. 8., of that city, says : The Blood Balm Company started one year ago with $!-*.OO, but to-day the hU'iness cannot be bought for $50,000,00!

Again in 18i>4, when we were in posses sion of Atlanta, Ga.. I saw familiarly a great number of gentlemen of that State, with whom I convers* J freely. They 3poke openlv and unreserveJly of th° tyranny of me Confederate authorities in Richmond, and of Mr. GayDpa ticular’v. He was the head of the government,ihe commander-in-chief of the armies. H - character was an element in the problem of the war for putting down the rebellion, in which at the time I wss an Important factor. The cost of the war was then a roa*t a r of intense interest t< Mr. Lincoln, M■. Stanton, Mr. Cl ase wid othe ers in Washington. On the loth ot September, 1874, I telegraphed to Gener al Hallei k. in Washington: “Governor Brown has disbanded his militia to gather the corn and sorgum of the State. 1 have reason to believe he and Stephens want to visit me, and have sent them a hearty invitation.” Two days af ! ter I received from President Lincoln this dispatch: I feel great interest in the subject of your dispatch, mentioning corn and sor ghum and the contemplated visitto you.” On the same day I answered him by tele j gram : “I will keep the department ful j ly advised of all developments connected with the subject in which you feel inter ested. Mr. Wright, former member of Congress from Rome, Ga., and Mr. King, of Marietta, are now going between Governor Brown and myself. I have said to them that some of the people of Georgia are engaged in rebellion, begun in error and perpetuated in pride; but that Georgia can now save, herself from the devastations of war, preparing for her only by withdrawing her quota of the Confederate army and aiding me to ex pel Hood from the borders of the State; in which event, instead of devastating the land as we progress, I will keep our men to the high roads and commons and pay for the corn and meat we need.” THU INTER STATE COMMERCE BILL. As passed by the Senate, the inter-Stat# commerce bill provides for a commission to be composed of nine members, one from each judicial circuit of the United States, to hold office for six years, except that of those first appointed,three shall hold office for two years only and three others for four years only. Vacancies are to be tilled by the President. Not more than live of the commissioners shall belong to one political party. The duties of the commission are defined to be to exercise the powers and duties granted by the bill pertaining to the methods and regulating the operation ot all transpor tation companies engaged in inter-State commerce, and to take into consideration and investigate all the various questions relating to commerce between States, and especially the matter r transportation (so far as may be necessary to establish a just system of regulations for the govern ment of the same). The salary of the commissioners is fixed at $7,500 and they are authorized to appoint a secretary at $3,500, alt necessary traveling expenses to be paid by the government, and the witnesses summoned before the commis sion are to be paid the usual fees. The commission has power to sand for persons and papers, to administer oaths, and to require the production of all books, papers, contracts and documents, or properly certified abstracts thereof, re lating to matters under consideration. It is authorized to require inter-State transportation companies to furnish an nual re] > nformatio as to th ir fi ncial condii on, the cost -f th -ir property, the number and salaries of employes, etc. It -lia.ll report annual ly to the S< .efarv of the Interior. The commissioners shall, during the first year, investigate and report on the sub ject of maximum and minimum charges, pooling, “watering” of stocks, and un just. discrimination, etc. The bitl being in its present form a substitute for the House bill, it now goes to the House of Representatives for concurrence or non-concurrence. Mary was a buxom country lass, and her father was an upright deacon in the Methodist church of a Conn* cticut village Mary’s plan of joining the boys and girls in a nutting party was frustrated by the unexpected arrival of a number of the “breathren” on their way to conference, and Maty had to stay at home and get dinner for her father’s clerical guests. Her already ruffled temper was increased by the reverend visitors themselves, who sat about the stove and in the way'. One of the good ministers noticed her wrath ful impatience, and desiring to rebuke the sinful manifestation, said sternly; “Mary, what do you think will be your occupation in bell?” “Pretty much the same as it is on earth,” she replied; “cooking for Methodist ministers.” — Elevated Railway Journal.

It seems tliat a young lady of Atlanta had been reported as dead, but it came to the ears of the Atlauta Journal that she was still alive, and being on the alert for news, a reporter was scut to the residence to learn all the facts. Miss Belle Dunaway, \vh had been pronounced dead, met him at the door, stoutly denying that she was dead. She said: “For four years, rheumatism and neuralgia have resisted physicians and. all other treatment My muscles seemed to di. my flesh shrank away, my joints were swollen,painful and large, lost my appetite, was reduced to (50 pounds in weight and for months, was expected to die. 1 commenced the use of B.
