PASTURES.
Nothing, perhaps, will be of more
benefit to the south than good pas
turage. This should lx; made and
taken care of as well as other crops.
The 1 test plan for pasture building
would be to practice a rotation for
two or more pastures on the same
farm, and change the cows from one
to the other at intervals of several
weeks apart, so that the grasses will
have time to grow from a good root
system. The good root system will
mean much for the permanent pas
ture. In building a pasture, a good
preparation of the soil is necessary;
also the ground should have lx-en
cultivated the year before in some
kind of crop that has kept down
weeds, in order that there may lx
few weed seeds to come up to crowd
out the pasture grasses. The best
grasses in the south for pasture are
the Bermuda, blue grass, cow peas,
sorghum and peanuts. In planting
Bermuda grass, thoroughly pulver
ize the soil, laying ofT the rows three
or four feet apart as for corn; put in
fertilizer, then set a large bunch of
Bermuda every three or four feet
This hunch will send out runner
and soon cover the entire ground.
Cow peas and sorghum should lx
sown broadcast and pastured of! in
the fall of the year, as the first peas
begin to come ripe. Peanuts should
b<‘ cultivated and pastured to th
hogs. Rape and oats make a good
winter pasture for hogs and stock
Clovers,vetches and alfalfas are also
good. —Union News.

doesn’t bring about the results tluu
it ought to. It has been tried f>i

t'O Vet the test be whether a man vo

Toe Alabama editor is correct,
comments the Columbus Enquirer
Sun, that paper further saying:
“The Democratic primary should
be for Democrats only. This is as
sound doctrine in Georgia as it is in
Alabama. The man who votes
other than the Democratic ticket
in the general election should have
no part in the Democratic primary.
To allow such a man to participate
is unfair and unjust to the Demo
crats who stick to their party.”

SULLY’S PROPOSITION.
We have again and again called
attention to the fact that the price
of cotton is dangerously near the
cost of production. One of the ele
ments entering into this cost is the
enhanced price which the cotton
grower pays for supplies, fertilizers
and money. Making a crop on
credit, he becomes a slave to his
creditor and is compelled to sell at
the pleasure of his creditor. If the
creditor is a factor, the debtor can
not even prevent the sale, provided
he is in debt for advances to the
factor. Mr. Bully’s proposition,
broadly stated, is to establish ware
houses where the cotton may be
stored and for which negotiable
warehouse receipts may be issued.
There is nottiing novel in the prop
osition. If $50,000,000 is sub
scribed as capital, the first great
condition is fulfilled, for the basis
of the proposition must be the ab
solute responsibility of the ware
house company. These warehouses,
properly and economically con
structed, can be so located in refer
ence to carriers as to minimize
expense of handling and reduce to
the lowest limit the charges for
compressing and insurance. The
warehouse receipts should be strictly
negotiable. No defense ought to be
permitted to avail against them;
they should stand for the cotton
Bueli negotiable receipts would be
as nearly perfect security for loans
as could be devised. The cotton
growers should at least give < arnest
consideration to the plan of Mr-
Bully —The Guidon.
Perfectly frank.
Here is, at least, one frank obit
uary notice which is going the
rounds: -
lie was uu-honest man in every
business transaction in which he
entered. He was always ready to
accommodate anyone in need who
would abide exactly by the terms of
the contract, but he had no time
for enjoying life as it is enjoyed by
most people. He will he remem
bered by those who knew him as a
slave to work and a martyr to the
greed for more money; a man who
could have contributed liberally to
ward making the world better for
the fact that he had lived in it —
but he did not.”
They Needed That Light.
In a little town in northern
Pennsylvania there is a fire depart
ment in which the citizens take a
great pride, composed, as it is,
wholly of volunteers. Late in April
a fire broke out at midnight. When
the departm ntcame upon the scene
only one lantern could be found.
The smoke was pouring out of the
building, but no flames appeared,
and it was wry dark.
Fiannlly, a tongue of flame shot
out of one corner of the structure
and the crowd cheered as the men
at the nozzle directed a stream of
water toward it. At this crisis the
excited captain shouted:
“Ihy, there, Bill! Be careful
what you do! Keep the water off
that blaze! Don’t you see that’s
the only light we’ve got to put the
fire out by?”
Too Rough.
A traveler in the dining car of a
Georgia railroad had ordered fried
eggs for breakfast.
“Can’tgiveyo’ fried aigs, boss,”
the negro waitor informed him,
“Lessen yo’ want to wait till we
stops.”
“Why, how is that?”
“Well, de cook he says de road’s
so rough dat every time he tries to
fry aigs dev scrambles.”
Lots of men and things seem
easy until you try to do them.
