Sir. Wm. H. Prendergast, an engineer on the Central railroad, made a remarkable run last Friday. He is in charge of No. 134, an engine made in the Central shops, by Mr. D. D. Arden, the master of machinery, and one of the best that ever steamed over the mils of the corporation. On Friday he was somewhat behind by reason of a mishap, and to make up time h6 let No. 134 out for nil she was worth.

Cotton 111 LuGrnnge, LaGiianoe, October 12.—We have lind cold east winds for three days, and now it is cloudy and rainy. Farmers complain that cotton is seriously injured. The staple sells here nt nine cents. Captain Dick Powell, of Hale Springs, Tenn., and Mr. D1 All farms that are devoted to live stock of some kind have not only improved, hut as a rule a protit is secured. If the stock on the lunjority of farms as now luunnged can he made to return a fair income above expen ses, how much greater the profits may be when the stock is strictly first class is not easily estimated. A few months ago special attention was called to a lot of sheep that had averaged 125 pounds when they reached the market, and yet such weight is really a light one. But the buyers were so accus tomed to receiving shoep weighing lesB than 100 pounds each that the special lot referred to was deemed worthy of mention in all the agricultural journals. The secret of suc cess, therefore, in raising live stock, as a husiueBs, is to keep only the best, discard ing all that do not come up to a certain standard. With swine the farmers have done well. To their credit it moy be said that the best breeds have been generally used, and but few old-fnahioned scruba are now seen as compared with twenty years ago, but al though hundreds of improved cattle and sheep have been introduced into this coun try, the progress of improvement on the farms is slow in comparison to what should be, though the general average i« somewhat better than formerly. The difficulty may be due to the fact that farmers do not look upon their calling as a business; yet it is n business as much as the selling of merchandise or any other avoca tion. But few merchnnta would venture Aldsworth are here buying it. A Handsome Jersey null. Butlek, October 10.—Mr. T. H. Frierson has decided to enter his fine Jersey bull, named Roscoe No. 8091, for premium and sale at the State Fair, October 26th, aired their capital in an enterprise and expect to by Baron of Belmont No. 4821, dam, Pearl succeed without first consulting all the con- of Belmont No. 10439. He is four years old ditions necessary to success, and the first in December, weighs now 1,500. Several and most important duty they would peform an occasional application of lime os a fer tilizer. Some one has inquired how best to re move pollen from brood combs. Let Jibe bees remove it. As your colonies require more combs give them one nr two of these nt a time, placing them between frames of brood, and oh near the entrance as possible, when they will be quickly and thornu|>hly clenued. The bees will convert it into brood. It the pollen is very hard aoak the cornba for awhile before placing them in the hive. Sheep should have shelter to run under at all seasona. They need it during the long cold rains of autumn fully aa much na any other animal on the farm does. They get soaked to the akin during these long rains, and in that condition suffer great discom fort, which always tells on the tlesh and general condition. Sheds for this purpose are easily and cheaply constructed in the pas ture or field, if it is uot convenient to let them up to the stables. The English and Scotch farmers begin to realize that it is fur more profitable for them to raise blooded stock of any of the improv ed breeds than it is to grow crops to feed the people, which can be grown cheaper abroad. Shire and Clyde horses are freely purchased by Americans nt liberal prices, as are also their Shorthorn, Hereford and Polled cattle. So it is in this country; the raising of improved stock pays much better than raising groin. Every farmer should recollect that every weed permitted to go to seed will produce hundreds of more weeds that will reqnire a hundred of times more effort to destroy another year. It ia better to let no weeds go to seed to produce others which rob the soil and prevent the growth of useful plants. What a shame it is to see a good pasture or n good form taken by weeds. Clean, thor ough farming is what is needed in this age of sharp competition among farmers. For a good serviceable fnrra horse—one that will possess size, strength mid activity —a cross of the Percheron with the thorough bred answers well.

The warehousemen of this city have de- tonnined to almndon the custom so long in vogue among them of placing men on the atrecta to buy cotton.

Junt twenty-seven mile* from the claaaie city of Athens, Ga., is situated the thriving little town of Maxey’s, the residence of Mr. Robert Ward, who has just been released from a most perilous predic ament, the particulars of which he has consented to give to the public. He writes as follows: Maxey’s. Oglethorpe county, Ga., July 9tb, 1883.— For twelve or fourteen years I have been a great sufferer from a terrible form of blood poisoning, which ran into the secondary and Anally It was pro* nounced a tertiary form. My head, face and ahoul* ders became almost a maas of corruption, and Anal* ly the disease commenced eating away my skull bones. I became so horribly repulsive that for three years I absolutely refused to letpeople see ms. I used large quantities of the most noted blood remedies and applied to nearly all physicians near me. but my condition continued to grow worse, aud all said that I must surely die. My bones became the seat of excruciating aches and pains: my nlghta were passed in misery: I was reduced in Aesh and aud strength: my kidneys were terribly derauged, and life became a burden to me. I chanced to sea the advertisement of D. B. B. and sent one dollar to W. C. Birchmore k Co.,mer chants of our place, and they procured one bottle It was used with decided benefit, and when eight or ten bottle had been used I was pro nounced sound and well. Hundreds of scars can now be seen on me, look* ing like a man who had been burned and then re stored. My case was well known in this county, aud for the beneAt of others who tusy be similarly af fected , I think it my duty to give these facts to the public, and to extend my heartfelt thanks for valuables remedy. I have been well for over twelve mouths and no return of the disease has oc curred. ROBERT WARD, Maxey’s, Os., July 1, 1885.—We, the undersigned, know Mr. Robert Ward, and take pleasure in saying that the facta above stated by him are true,and that was one of the worst cases of blood poison we ever knew in our county, and that he haa been cured by the use of D.

The affrighted horses were given additional impulse to ■j..i. out when the second shot waa fired.
