The Supreme Court ofthe United

hind its work. The habit of the

case, add unnecessarily much to
their labors, and produces great de

decisions and go on with the busi

The Court of Appeals. Now York,
has decided a very important prin
ciple of taxation. The Legislature
in 1881 imposed a tax on the capital
stock of all telegraph companies
organized under the laws of N. Y.,
or organized in other States and
doing business in N. Y., The Wes
tern Union refused to pay the tax.
The court holds that they must pay
the tax on their entire capital.
It is rather a peculiar fact that
the notables of the land meet on
Sunday to determine the most im
portant business matters. For in
stance, when Grant desired to bor
row *150,000 from Vanderbuilt, he
milled on him and asked for it on
Sunday.
It is a surprising fact that rail

that a few years since cost $-50.
Railroad building is now going on

Feeding Land for Crops.
As the writer enters upon the task
of preparing this article for the
Gazette, he cannot refrain from
offering a word of congratulation to
its readers, over the eno.anous
changes that have taken place in
the past year in the Political,Social
nnd Industrial organizations of the
country; and lie sincerely hopes
that at all times the minds
and talents ofits readersand contri
butors may be actively and con
stantly employed upon the side of
freedom, justice, and intelligence.
As the time of year for the prep
aration of the coming crops is
upon us a few suggestions may not
be amiss, as to the time and man
ner of applying our compost.
It has been the custom of most
farmers to spend much time every
year in January & February pre
paring their compost heaps, to re
main until March or April, then to
be carried to the field and deposited
in the furrows for the coming
crops.
The writer after some experience
with said manner of composting
luis adopted the following mode of
preparing his compost, with good
results: Everyday after the loth
January that the ground will ad
mit of plowing lay off your rows
for cotton with a turning plough
going and coming in the same fur
row to get it sufficiently large <fc
deep to receive the compost. r l hese
furrows scatter your manure, cot
ton seed andacid phosphate, then
throw two furrows on this mixture
with a scooter and let it remain un
til near planting time, when two
turning plough furrows may bo
thrown upon the small list already
made and the middles ploughed
out, the seed bed will be fresh and
ready for planting:
The writer finds the above plan
of putting in compost a decided
advantage over letting it remain
about the lots until the busy sea
sons of; the year are here, to say
nothing’ of the savings by letting
decomposition take place in the
soil where it is most needed.
The largest production witfc the'
least expenditure is the greatest
problem, and is one that the farm
er should study day & night. If
he hires a first class laborer, he feels
the importance of putting a good
axe or hoe orspaede in liis hands,
he appreciates the necessity of pro
viding him with a good mule and
plough that he may property jayi--
pare for and work a, crop. Lu{
does he appreciate the equal if not
greater importance of feeding the.
crops which that hand is to culti
vate?
Readers of the Gazette have you
ever thought on the advantage of
buying a compost distributor "such
as Philpot’s or Kemp’s 11 and hire
ling a first class hand and run a
team the year round gathering
leaves from the forest, bringing in
woods mould, scraping out the
fence corners, spading up muck,
and gathering rich deposits, where
ever they may have accumulated
hauling them directly upon the
land to beturned under?3hould one
week’s work after the above men
tioned plan be put on one acre of
Jmd it would certainly increase
production 100 per- cent. For in
stance an acre of land that would
make half bale of cotton without
fertilizers, would with the above a
mount of work put upon it make
one bale, then think of 50 acres be
ing prepared in the same way in
one year, by the same hand and
team. In conclusion I would say
let thoughtful farmers calculate on
the cost of said compost distribu
tor, hand and team “say yoke of
oxen” and compare it with their
annual guano bills, “remembering
that the virtues of the one are about
exhausted in a single crop, while
the other tends towards permanent
building up of the soil: The cry,
that farming dont pay that comes
up from all over the land will not
be hushed until our lands are made
to produce more per acre.
