There is an opening to a cave at

FOR HANGING HOGS.
^ Practical Arrangement Described
by an pwiio Farmer.
A very ingenious arrangement used
by an enterprising farm butcher for
hanging hogs was originally described
and illustrated in Ohio Farmer. It
would come in very handily on many
farms at this season. Mr. ,T. E. Wing
Brief Mention.
“I would like to preach the gospel of
alfalfa iu the ears of every farmer in
Texas, especially the small farmc-vs. 1
feel sure tha-t it gives more and takes
less than any forage plant that can be.
grown in the state,” says a Texas
farmer.
According to a New York commis
sion man. the finest rice in the world
is grown in Louisiana. The southern
states in this country produce the best
quality of rice with the exception of-
Egypt, which grows as fine an article.
Louisiana alone could produce all that
is necessary for the home consumption
and will probably do so as soon as a
system of irrigation now under way is
completed and in operation.
The planting of rows of sweet corn
is traps for the cotton boil worm is a
well recommended measure of consid
eration wherever the boli worm has
become a pest in cotton.
It is noted as a curious fact by the
horticulturist of the Alabama station
that fruit trees of all kinds bioom later
on tbe coast than they do 100 or 200
miles farther north in the interior.
This season tbe Kieffer flower buds on
the coast were so much less advanced
that quite a portion of them escaped
the freeze and bore fruit.

It is the general opinion of those
who have carefully examined the
peach trees that they were not in
jured by the freeze two weeks ago.
Plums are also said to be all right.
Apple trees have not yet bloomed.
Farmers report that they are fur
ther behind with their work than
they have been for several years at

Rev. W. E. Mumford raised about
iflOO in Sandersviile for the Indus
trial home near Macon.
Last Saturday afternoon while
work was being pushed on the ai te-
sian well the drill suddenly drop
ped fifteen feet, which confirms the
opinion that a cave exists under
Sandersviile.
The drill had reached the depth
of about GO feet. Just before strik
ing the cavity the drill struck a
hard formation of lime rock, proba
bly the roof of the cave. After cut
ting through this rock the drill
went down with a suddenness that
was startling to the workmen and
bystanders. Water rose in the pip
ing to within tbirty-Bix feet of the

A shooting affray occurred near
Metier last Monday night iu which
a couple of young men, Messrs. E.
J. Register and James Hay man,
were the principals and which near
ly resulted fatally to both. The
fighting is said to have been at close
range, and both Register aud Hay-
man are carrying pistol balls
their bodies as a result. Register’s
wound was the most serious; he
naviug been hit in the left breast.
At last reports both parties were
doing well and will recover.
Dr. Sample, assisted by Dr. Mc
Lean and Dr. Rogers, performed a
very delicate aud successful opera
tion upon a negro boy William
Scott, last Wednesday afternoon.
Several years ago Scott received a
blow on his head, crushing in his
skull, from the effects of which his
right arm since been paralyzed.The
operation consisted in removing a
circle from his skull about tbree-
tourths of an inch in diameter, thus
relieving the pressure upon the
brain. The strength has already
begun to return to Scott’s paralyzed
arm, which he can now raise above
his head.

says: It is very cheap and easily made,
and any bright hoy can put it together
in a day. By its use a boy can easily
raise and hang a hog that weighs 400
pounds, and the frame will hold six or
more after being dressed, aud six 400
pound hogs are as many as any or
dinary family ought to kill and eat iu
one year in Ohio.
Fig. 1 shows the side view of the
frame. It is made altogether of oak,
2 by 4 stuff, and the legs are bolted on
so that they are easily taken off to
store or carry about. They are set
staggered, as shown at the end view,
Fig. 2. The large wheel, B, is about
two feet in diameter, and the spindle
on the same axle, C, is four inches, so
that one pound pulled down on the
rope running over B pulls up six pounds
on the rope winding ou the small spin
dle, C. The crank, D, also multiplies
the power about three times, so that
one pound of force supplied to the
crank lifts about 18 pounds theoretic
ally. Of course the friction cuts this
down somewhat, but the heaviest part
of the pig killing is the easiest when
this machine is used. The large wheel,
B, is easily made by sawing out two
disks of hard plank aud putting in
pins around the circle, spacing the
disks about four inches apart and put
ting the circle of pins about four inches
from the circumference.

Oats For tlie Sonth.
The prevailing opinion and experi
ence of southern farmers are that one
of the different strains of Texas Ilust-
proof or Bed Bustproof, as the variety
is variously called, is the most reliable
now cultivated and probably the best
ever introduced into the south. The
Appier oat is a selected strain of the
original Texas Bustproof, the selec
tion having been made with care and
covering a series of years. The vhriety
lias been annually sown on the station
farm for the last ten years. When well
cleaned, a measured (heaped) bushel
will weigh from 35 to 3S pounds. The
variety does not rust.
The Burt oat is an old and well ap
proved early variety, especially adapt
ed for sowing in the spring. If sown
not earlier than Feb. 15 to 20 in middle
Georgia, it will be ready to harvest by
June 1, or in about 100 days.
The Winter Turf, or Virginia Turf, or
Myers’ Turf, all names for one and the
same variety, has not proved a desira
ble oat on the station. It is light and
chaffy, late, nouresistant of rust, so far
as observed, and less prolific than the
Appier and Texas. Indeed the only
point of merit possessed by it is its su
perior hardiness tp resist freezing, yet
it was badly killed, as were all varie
ties, in the winter of 1S94-5. Being nei
ther early, prolific nor proved to be
rustproof, it is not a safe variety.—Di
rector of Georgia Station.
The Bees Paid Best.
Lady Henry Somerset, of temperance
fame, speaking of work carried on at
her industrial farm colony in England,
says: “The bees, however, are really
our most successful venture. They
have already repaid the whole of the
original outlay, and given a profit as
well. This season the eight hives yield
ed 300 pounds of honey, and the colo
nies were increased by swarms from 8
to 11, so that next season' we ought to
gain a very good profit if the season is
favorable.”

A Remarkably
Strong Love Story
Root Grafting.
In root grafting apples the scions are
cut in fail, winter or any time before
the buds swell in spring. Describing
the operation, a writer in American
Gardening says: One-year-old seedlings
are generally employed for stocks, but
sometimes larger roots are used, being
cut in pieces four or five inches long
and a scion set in each piece: Boots are
usually “tongue” or “whip” grafted, the
stock being cut at or just below the
surface of the ground. Cut both stock
and scion alike with a sharp knife, mak
ing a good, smooth, even surface. Then
put the two parts together, taking
MRS. W. H. FELTON.
Mrs. tV. H. Felton, the George Eliot
of the south, has taken charge of a new
department, to be known as “The Coun
try Home.” This distinguished lady is
known far and wide by the power of her
pen, and her ability was recognized dur
ing the world's fair, -when she was ap
pointed to represent Georgia. She has of
late stirred up much enthusiasm by her
letters and speeches on country life and
the means for making it attractive.
ROOT GRAFTING OF APPLES,
great care that the inner bark or cam
bium of the scion comes in direct con
tact with the inner bark of the root,
and tie with raffia to hold in place.
Such a graft made by an experienced
workman need not be waxed, but the
beginner will probably succeed better
if each graft is covered with wax. In
large nurseries root grafting is done
during the winter months. The young
seedlings are dug, the scions cut and
both put into the cellar, where they are
kept cool and moist. They are then
taken to a well lighted workroom, root
grafted, and are planted out iir nursery
rows the following spring.
