Answer. —T4»o greatest income of tho soutii i's derived from cotton and its products, grain and its products, rice, sugar, tobacco, fruit, vegetables and the products of the pine tree. The south has also its stock farms, its man factoring, mining, merchandising, building, transportation and other in¬ terests—bringing into the country about $1,300,000,0000 annually. One principal reason that tho south receives so little benefit from the vast wealth is that sho spends it with almost absolute unre¬ straint on other sections of our own country, and to fill the coffers of for¬ eign nations. With perhaps a few un¬ important exceptions, the south is abso¬ lutely dependent on the outside world Discovered by a Woman. Another great discovery has been made, anj| that too, by u lady in this country. “Disease fastened its clutches upon hei and for Sevan years sho withstood iti severest tests, but her vital organs wer« undermined nnd death seemed imminent. For three months she coughed incessantly, find could not sleep. She finally discover¬ ed a way to recovery, by purchasing of us a Lottie of Dr. King’s New Discovery for Consumption, and was so much relieved on taxing first dose, that she slept all night: and With two bottles, lias been absolutely cured. Her name is Mrs. Luther Lutz. Thus write* W. C. Ham nick ct Co., of Shelby, N. C. Trial bot¬ tles free at Dr. B. J. Reid’s r'-uig store.

Wo pay millions of dollars to outsiders for tho books which wo road and for those which our children study. Lite and fne insurance companies take millions of dollars out of the sooth oach year. Saddest of all, the farmers pay out many additional millions for supplies, which they con d Just ns well rawc at home. Thus the south, which is the most, highly favored section of the Union in natural re¬ sources q,nd in opportunities for acquir WRa i t j 1> pa ys tribute to tho north nn( i we st a6d to every foreign country. Her cotton crop has built up colossal fortunes at the north. Her lumber trade has established foreign companies on a firm basis; the earnings from her immense deposits of iron aud her mar¬ ble and minerals have gone to swell the Two Pointed (Juestions Answored. What is the use in making u hotter article than your competi¬ tor if you can not get a better price for iff A ns—As there is no difference in the price the public will bay only the better, so that while our profits may bo smaller on a sin¬ gle sale they will be much greater in the aggregate.

In a few weeks tho beef will be ready for use. The same method may be pur¬ sued in curing hams and shoulders of hogs. If then you wish to smoko your hams and shoulders tako them out of tho pickle in five weeks, wipe dry and hang up for a day or two before smoking. Thon smoko with corn cob? or hiekory wood for a week or ton days, taking care that tho moat does not got hot while being smoked After smoking, dip tho hams and shoulders for 33 sooouds in boiling The Kidney Complexion.

Here is another receipt for those who like spieo flavored moats: For ovory 100 pounds of meat take 8 pounds salt, !5 pounds of brown sugar (or 1 quart of molasses), 2 ounces of saltpetre. 2^ ounces of cloves and 1 K ounces of black pepper, l’ut these in sufficient water to cover the meat when packed, and boil and ski in carefully; when perfectly oold, pour ever tho meat, that has been packed in a barrel or cask, koeping the moat • Yellow Jaundice Cured, FuflVi ing humanity should be supplied with every means possible for Its re icf.

Question ! imv" an opportunity of bnj ing a Jmr • • »», of damaged corn at a rO(i UGDll J)1 io* is it a safe feed for cat tie and hog •' i i. now that it ih danger ous to feed i » 1» • and mains. Answer I would udvise against the feeding of damage l corn to stock of every description While u little of it, fed tocatti- a:i i hogs along with other food, might hoc prod a™ serious results, it could not, if much damaged, benefit them materially, If cattle or hogs should bo confined and fed exclusively on damaged corn for n considerable length of time. I have no doubt that serious siokic’ss and death wouid result to many of the animals. In addition to this, I am ure that the meat from animals so fed would neither be as pala, table nor wlioiertome as that produced by feeding sound urain. It is a well known fact that the fl -sli of animals is flavored by the food they eat, and an ex jiusive diet of damaged corn must, in my opinion, result in badly flavored, and possibly, unwholesome moat. Of course, the resuits I have suggested would depend a goad deal 011 tho ex tent to which the corn might lie dam aged, and this is not stated in your question, bu. a3 a general proposition rum ra f 8 I ^ ■l^F E *5 El fefijfc WK& 8* nWl E ■ fl ■ I ■ MothersI This wonder- Cou S h f Y,rrt hlI i, s Ule y when muss attacked a by Croup or Whooping- OY ill |J* 25cb.

Just here I will take occasion to no¬ tify you and the other farmers of the state that much damaged corn has been shipped into Georgia from tho west, and those of you who are unfortunately forced to buy western corn should ex¬ amine it carefully before purchasing, and reject, all that is not absolutely sound, otherwise yon cudanger the lives of your horses and mules.—State Agricultural Department.
