•Tue Cotton'Plant and Soil Fertil-
~ ity.
The writer has believed for ma-
ftiy years that the cotton plant—or,
in other words, the mnch abused
“cotton crop”—if properly manag
ed, was a great renovator of the
soil—possibly the best renovating
crop in the world taking into con
sideration the fact that the farmer,
after taking a .1 his lint cotton for
market, still has left on his land the
seed, stalks and leaves, and near
ly everything made from the soil
is returned to the soil.
In giving what we take to be
some of the causes why certain
plants enrich the land more than
others, and why cotton more than
the grain crops, let us first take in
to consideration the effect produced
on the soil by the tree. Mention
has been made of the forest tree
fertilizing the land, and that its tea
ching should be followed by the
fjgrmers, to which we agree, for as
with the plant, so also with the
tree, some having tap roots and
others only surface roots, and those,
in each case that have tap roots fer
tilize the soil and the accumula
tions are of great benefit to the
cultivated crop. Being a case in
point we will take the old field pine
though we are unable to say why
the full grown pine trees of the for
est do not act in the same way as
the old field pines in improving the
soil. But the old field pines seem
to be an especial provision of Pro
vidence to reclaim old worn out and
badly washed lands, which it does
to an extent that is unequaled by
anything else known to our section
of the country where the land is
left by itself to rest, nothing at all
being done to it but just to be left
alone for some twenty years more
or less. These pines come on the
land of themselves, and when left
alone they take all over the land,
galled, gullied and all, and will
grow and thrive in the forest,sandy
or red clay gullies; stop washes,,
form new soil or enrich the old
rWhere there is any left to enrich.
"The question is, where and how
does it get fertilizers while growing
on what seems to be sterility itself.
This tree appears to be a very gross
feeder, and sends its roots far and
deep into the sterile and hard earth
and takes up fertilizers that are
deep down too scant and too insolu
ble for any cultivation to reach,
take up or appropriate. Bui this
tree does all this, penetrating deep
and wide, taking up materials to
from a depth of many feet, absorb
ing them away to form leaves and
burs, which is thrown down to rot
jUid become a rich and fertle soil;
this crude matter becoming suf
ficiently soluble to feed cultivated
crops, the land often appearing as
good if not better, than when first
cleared of the original forest that
might have been there for thous
ands of years.
And so it is with the plants, some
have tap roots, such as the clover,
peas and cotton, and some others,
all of which enrich the soil more or
less upon the same principle as the
old field pine, if not to the same ex
tent, being some of them only an
nuals and not such gross feeders
but they all improve the soil, going
deeper than the grain crops do. It
is generally admitted that the clo
vers can yield good crops of hay
and at the same time be improving
the soil; why not the cotton plant,
that returns all back to the soil
again, which is not the case with
the clover? Aniji the case is
worse with the grain crops which
, , , t j. , ..
soil to prevent disturbance by the
wind’s, or by freezing and thawing.
These tips will soon root, and furn
ish good young plants for setting as
early in the spring as the condition
of the ground will admit. Set-in rows
six feet apart in the row. Let but
one cane grow the first year, and
when at the height of twelve to fif
teen inches, pinch back, prevent
the growth of weeds by frequent
stirring of the ground. The second
and each successive year, three or
four canes may be allowed to grow,
and care should he taken that they
are pinched back, say twenty in
ches or a little more. This pinching
back should be done just at the
time the cane attends this height.
There will be but few hearing later
also if the canes are allowed to
grow thirty inches and
then cutback to twenty. The third
and each successive spring, cut the
laterals back to within five or ten
inches of the cane, and at the same
time remove the cane, that bore
the previous year. It is the practice,
with some fruitgrowers, to remove
the canes as soon as the fruit is
gathered; but a well-known Indi
ana grower thinks it better to allow
them to grow until spring that
they may be a stay and protection
to the new grotwh.
Raised on the Farm.
“Born and raised on the farm.” A
boy should thank God for being so
fortunate as to be born and raised on
the farm. There is no place on this
green earth so well adapted to per
fectly develop mind, muscle and
manhood as a farm; there a boy has
the purest air, the freshest and
healthiest food plenty of restricted
exercise, the brightest sunshine,
and the soundest sleep—the very
conditions necessary for the high
est development. Nine-tenths of
all the men who have made their
mark in any business, profession or
prusuit have been born and raised
on the farm; this is not so much be
cause their is better blood on the
farm, but because the surroundings
of farm life are better calculated to
call out what there is in a hoy
and develop a full-grown, healthy,
perfect, self-reliant man.
black gums are putting on their; question in a' comedy is whether the
crimson garments. The sycamores
are turning a green and yellow me
lancholy. The corn fir Ids are brown
and the big ears hang heavily down.
Wild ducks are gathering in the
ponds. The east winds blo^v cool
and damp, and we have evening
and morning fires to drive away
chilly air. We are getting up the
winter’s wood, and will soon go to
the mountain for lightwood. Soon
the corn will have to he gathered
and cribbed—corn that is really
king—for I see that the corn crop is
valued at more money by millions
than any other crop, and this year
we will have sixty million bushels
more than ever before. For three
years past we have suffered from
feeble crops—not enough corn to
lap over into the next crop and
about half crop of cotton. The
farmers have had a ha.*d time and
a good many will not survive it, for
they mortgaged their farms and
the interest has been going on and
the foreclosures are coming and
they will be closed out sooner or
later. There is nothing more piti
ful to me than to see a struggling
man have to give up his home—
the home where he spent the flush
his married life and raised his chil
dren—where his boys worked and
frolicked and his girls cheered the
fireside and received their visitors
and did their houshold work. Such
things have hnpened right under
my eyes and they grieved my heart
and nobody was to blame for the
misfortune. It is always easy for
the more fortunate to say, “well he
was a bad manager—he has nobody
to blame but himself,” It is true,
now as it was when Shakespeare
wrote it that
“Some rise by sin and some by virtue
fall.” ■
marriage will take place or not, and in
a tragedy whether the murder will be
accomplished or not. There will fete a
marriage,’ there will be a murder; this
is the first act. There will be no mar
riage or no murder: this is the second act*
A Dew incident happens, a new manner
of killing or marrying; that is the third
act. An obstacle arises ivhich prevents
the killiDg or marrying;’ that is the fourth
act. This must finish, and so in the
fifth act the marriage or- murder is ar
ranged or accomplished, because every
thing must have an end.

How is it possible that a good

thatj^when used on crops where all

just row and row abdut. How is
this cotton of.sgveral times the size
of the other to make less vegetable
matter and humus than the other
that is so much smaller? Again is
it not presumable that those who
spend their money "so freely for
manures would appreciate the
homemade as much as those who do

How to Catch Yellow Jackets.
The Eatonton Chronicle says:—
Mr. Hiram Moneyham has discov
ered a way to catch yellow jackets.
He took an ordinary fly trap,
bought at Mr.:Hern’« store, knocked
out the bottom, and placed it snug
ly over the nest of yellow jackets.
Some two or three of the bees came
in and began fighting each other.
Tke noise they made brought all
the balance into the conflict. They
continued fighting until every one
waskiiled and the nest^broken up.
He found another nest and set the
fly trap over them as before,’with
the same result, So he continued
until all the yellow jackets in five
nests on his premises had destroyed
themselves.
Plant Orchards.
The season is now at hand for
fruit tree planting in this region.
There are thousands ot farms and
plantations in this State that are
not yet provided with a good fam
ily orchard. This is not as it should
be. No home is complete in all its
comforts and conveniences with
out a goodly supply of good whole
some fruit, this can only be attain
ed by paying more attention to
fruitgrowing. We again urge upon
our farmers to give this matter
their immediate attention. Select
a well-drained eligible and conve
nient place upon your farm, and
sacredly set it apart for an orchard
and then go to work and thorough
ly prepare the soil for planting.
This done, consult your neighbor
ing nurseryman as to varieties and
all that, and meantime give the
professional tree pecidler a “wide—
birth.”—Rural and Workman.
- t ‘ AUsetul Remedy.
Ex-Rev. W. H. H. Murray has
given to the world what he declares
to be a sure remedy for small pox
and scarlet fever. He affirms that
it is “as unfailing as fate.” It is en
dorsed by the best school of medi
cine at Paris, and is harmless when
taken by a well persoi. Dr. Murray
says:
“Here is Hie recipe as I have us
ed it and cured my children of
scarlet fever; here it is as I have
used it to cure small pox, when the
learned physicians said the patient
must die, it cured:
One grain sulphate af zinc; one
grain foxglove (digitalis); half
teaspuonful of sugar; mix with two
teaspoonfuls of water; when
thoroughly mixed add four ounces
of water. Take a spoonful every
hour. Either disease will disap-
apear in 12 hours. For a child
smaller doses according to agt. If
counties would compel their physi
cians to use this there would be no
need of pest-houses.”

The Newnan correspondent of the
Atlanta Constitution gives the fol
lowing account of a cutting scrape
in Coweta county: On last Sunday,
a serious cutting scrape occurred
eight miles north of here, and as
John Barleycorn does not visit this
county, the quarrel began, of course,
about a woman. William Burks, a
single man, and Columbus Hyde*
a married man, lived in the same
neighborhood. With Mr. Hyde lived
his sisterinlaw, with whose beauty
Burks was infatuated. Hyde and
wife objected to the young lady’s
receiving the attention of Burks,
but it seems - that Burks,
and the young lady
gave no heed to their com
mands. On last Sunday while at
church, Hyde and wife were in
formed that the couple were iq
company at the spring near thd
church and so much charmed with
each other that they did not pro
pose coming to the sermon. Mrs.
Hyde started at once to rid her
sister of her companion and bring
her to church, and was followed by
her husband. When they approach
ed the young people, Mrs. Hyde
took her sister by the arm and led
ner from Burks, and as she 1 did- so,
Burks began cursing Hyde. Tji
quarrel began and a hand conflict
ensued. Hyde was severely cut in
several places and is now confined
in bed at home, hut it is thought
that the wounds are not dangerous.
Each party swore out warrants a-
gainst the other. Hyde at once gfftye
a $25 bond to answer the charge of
assault and battery, and on yester
day, after a committal, Burks gave
a $200 bond to answer the charge of
assault with intent to murder. The
entire neighborhood is very much
aroused over the matter, as all
parties were good people and stood
well in the community.
Sweet Potatoes.
Formerly no farmer thought
of harvesting his potatoes until
quite cool weather in the autumn,
but now it is the practice of a large
number of farmers to harvest this
crop as soon as possible after the
potatoes have stopped growing,
lieving to leave them in the ground
injures them, and it is the opinion ol 1
some that if potatoes are dug as
soon as they begin to rot, it win
stop the disease from spreading)
but experiments do not confirm tljn
opinion; it is true by digging the
potatoes that are affected by dis
ease, the svet-rot may be hta meas
ure prevented; but the disease is
Jn the potato, and it will show it
self in a dry rot to an extent that
will render the potato unfit to eat.
As a rule, we have found when the
rot has struck a field of potatoes it
is best to let them remain in the
ground until coni weather, then
those that are unaffected by disease
will remain so; this saves the hand
ling of rotten potatoes, which, to
say the least, is very unpleasant
business.

A Song of Gratitude.
In olden times, Bethesda’s pool
Was famed for healing all diseases;
Once plunged beneath its waters 300I,
Eacli $vil, stain and sickness ceases.
In modern days we find a cure,
Of worthjas rare,^as much deserving;
A remedy safe, quick and sure,
Dr. Richmond's Samaritan Nervine
For Epilepsy, Spasms, Fevers, Colics,
Cramps,
Coughs, Colds, or any kind of Phthysic
Its merit as a leader stamps
It far above all other physics.
It goes at once right to the spot
Where lurks the danger, never swerving
In all the world perhaps there's not
A cure like Dr. Richmond’s Nervine.
As in the blood diseases lie;
Esch'artery, each vein, each curve in;
There’s nothing makes ill humor fly,
Like the Samaritan Xervixc,
For Old or young, for .rich or poor,
AA'hatever class of life you serve in,
To health wide open is the door,
From the Samaritan Nervine.
Then, do you value strength and health,
And think these blessings worth pre
serving,
Better than all Golco nda’s,wealth,
Is Dr. Richmond’s Samaritan Xeryin.
