Thn present year has again Illustrated' the fact, that the spring sown crop oaunot bo rnlind on, bht thn.fi the fall crop. If properly prepared for aiid sown early enough, Is almost cer tain. Prepare the land thoroughly to be ready to begin sowing In September. The value of rye as a renovator, a grnin food for stock during the winter months, and an accumulator of Imrans Is not generally fully appreciated. Whllo not as valuable os peas. If sown on the pea stubble It will take bold of the work where the peas left off and continue It through the winter. It is a very hardy crop, and if sown in tho cotton fields, does much to provent the wasting and washing of tho oleauly cultivated soil. BORQHUII may still be planted to advantage. The Early Atubor Is best for the late plant ings. It is exceptionally good for fat tening hogs, and if out before the seeds fully form may be fed with profit to all farm aulnals, only being careful to reg ulate the amount, as like all othor groan foods, it is injurious if givon in unlim ited quantities. PABTTJIIS9 often fall at this season and while the hot, dry weothor may seem sufficient reason to mauy for this failure, very often it is the result of too close grim ing. The stock are turned on day after day indiscriminately, and no thought is given to the foot that any plant will at last fail if Its foliage is continually de stroyed. Tho grass Is given no time to repair the dally damage and the conse quence is, that being eaten off as fast as it tries to put out a fresh growth, It finally gives up the fight and our mid summer postures beoorae brown and bare. It Is here that tho green oropa of sorghum, forage corn, peas, clover come in as a most valuable supplement, and if fed systematically will save the pastures and in the fall the übuudant growth, which has sprung up on them will give the aidmals a good start and save the use Of much of tho stored win ter food. R. T. Nesbitt. Salt to Deitroy rnrasitei In Stock—Grub* In Sheep. Question. — I notioe that my sheep and cattle, the young lambs and calves particularly, arc every year, after being turned ou the pastures, affected with some disease, whioh often causes them to drt*op and in some eases die. I can assign no certain cause for this trouble, the pastures are nbundnut, and there is a stream of pure running water in easy access. Cau you suggest auy cause for this ? Is there auy certain euro for grub in the head of sheep? Answer—We should judge from your description that your cattle need salt. Every pasture, no matter how well manured, or how flourishing, is more or less infested with the germs of parasitical diseases. The eggs or larvae if the parasites are deposited ou tho ~ t - grass and are token into the st :uof uui.siu.s while feed ing fait is ah- ’* !d .-tieal ur an ■ v ■ • '■ '■ *■ i'- .. in jury from their attacks. Salting ouoe or twice a' week will not be suffloient *-** snucJi a nooessitv to animals as to man. ana snouia oe placed whore they cap hnve daily access to it. A lit tle copperas mixed in the salt about twice a mouth in the proportion of one part to ten of salt, has been found ben eficial. Au occasional dose of sulphur is also good. For the grub, prevention is the only sure and paying romodv. If the enttlo are provided with a place where they will bo protected from tho snu during the hot months, they will oscapo in great measure the attacks of the flies. Thick woods or a dark shod will fur nish this protection, and sheep thus sheltered will have almost entire immu nity from grubs In the head. It is well, however, to watch them, both old and young, and once or twice a month syr inge out their nostrils with turpentine and linseed oil, equal parts. An ex perienced sheep man says the best way to do' this is to Insert the syringe three or four inches up the nostril, give a quick syringe and let go tho head nt once. In a short time treat the othor nostril the same way. Tufting the nos trils has also been used with ouooureg ing success. It is better to spend some effort in the use of these preventives, than to wuste our time and strength in endeavoring to remove the grubs after they have obtained a firm foothold.— State Agricultural Department.

Surely the Lord does have compassion upon hi* afflicted people. Several of our young people attend ed the populist ralley at Jsffcrson Saturday. A large crowd attended the preach ing sevioes at Webbs Creek Sunday. Rev. J. F. Goode preached a very interesting sermon. Mr. Newt. Smith decided to be hclpmeto to his wife one day last week. The first thing he did was to apply some fire to a pot of soap, whereupon said application caused said pot to lose the directions of the center of gravity upset itself al-o r three gallon jar nearby.

He did not visit the old haunts of childhood days, or the friends of years past and gone forevor; neither .lid his visit consist in viewing over the old play grounds of youthful days which is very dear to his care-worn heart, uot even retracing the siitu-1 paths so often trod in days past by. But he did travel a road over which he had never traveled before. He yravet sed the streets of a little city for the first time. That city was j Jefferson, Jackson county. It was a trip ever to be remembered, lie was charmed, He was deiighted, He was enthused. He was charmed by tho flowers from the garden of Eden strown along the highway —the beautiful girls. He .vas delighted with the large fields of growing corn which gives promise of | a bountiful supply.

He was enthused over the cotton prospects and the “stubble’’ fields sown in peas. In fact, both works of art and nature seemed to he combined t<> make everything as attractive as possible. We did not go to take part in the populist railey which took place at Jefferson on the day named but only as a spectator. It was estimated that at least two thousand people were on the grounds, but it is safe ifl s ®3’ half were democrats. Speeches were made by Irwin and Muhaffey who spared not tha chastising rod upon the democrats. To show our readers a sample of their abuse an anecdote told by Muhaffey. “Two democrats got together one day j and in the course oftheir conversation they struck the financial question. One says can you tell me what 16 to 1 means in the democratic party?; The other replied, it means 16 fools to one sensible man.” Yi.i soon iu the afternoon we became so disgusted we turned our head Lomov, aid no wiser as to populism pocnines hut having a clearer id; a as to their principle.

Stricken with an Inrnratile Dftaena* ami yet Cured. (Vromihr Argun and l\itrioi t Montpelier , Vi*) Eight years ago Geo. Hutchinson moved from Bradford to Chelsea, Vt., and hough'/ the sawmill at the latter place, lie was known a* one of the strongest men in that section. On Dec. 10,’92 while at work in the mill, he wan struck in the back b j a Hying lMard, which seriously injured him uml incapacitated him for work of any kind. As n result of this, Locomotpr Ataxia set in, (this is a form of paralysis which deprives the patient of all use of his lower limbs.) The Argus 6 c Patriot interviewed Mr. Hutchinson to-day, and his story id here given in his own words. “ My back ached continually and my leg* began to grow numb and to be less and lea* usable. By the 15th of April I could do absolutely nothing and was scarcely able to stand. Mv physicians advised me to go to the Mary Fletcher Hospital at Dtirlioeton, to be treated, aad l took their advice. When 1 left home my friends bade me good-by©, never expecting to see me alive again. The physicians at the hospital told me that my case was a serious one and 1 was coin pleteiy discouraged. i remained at th© hospital seven weeks and took the medicine* which the doctors gave me. I felt better at the hospital an, 1 thought that I was recover ing, nnJ went hon.* coutinu© their treat* ment, which 1 did for two months, ami also had an electric battery under their advice. The improvement, however,did not continue snd I began to give up hope. August Ist, 1895,1 could not get at of my chair without awjisTsuoc, and if i got down upon the floor, I cu!l n t get up alone. About this tim© I chanced to read an acconnt of the wonder ful curative powers of Dr. Williams’ rink Pill-i fr Pale People in cases similar to my jwi). I did not have nnr faith in the Pil.t Sot to ought a trial could do no harm, so I bought some without telling anronr what f wus going to d>. After 1 had been taking them - -m" time ! found that, f r the first in mon*h* 1 was abb* to walk down to th* \hM oflie-, and my neighbor* began to dis* suss the marked improvement in my health. As I continued the medicine I continued •© improve, and soon recommenced work in the mill, at first very lightly, and in* freaking an I was able and a* I gained in health and spirits, and now for the pa*| three months I have been working ten hour* r*r day almost as steadily as 1 ever didL feel well, eat well and sleep as well as I ever did and I hare no min anywhere. ’* The reporter talked with several other gew* tlemen in regard to the case of Mr. Hutchin* v>n, who stated that any statement he might tiako would be entitled to entire credenct.
