the calvinistic doctrine
(Continued from first page.)
ences from the bible. Will you
hunt them up and read them?
There are two doctrines clearly
taught in the bible: Man s free
agency and God’s foreordination,
and where and how they agree in
God’s economy no one can tell.
In this article I will give a part of
those of God’s sovereignty. If you
will follow me closely you will
see the Calvinists have some
ty solid rocks to stand on.
Homans 8 : 28—“And we know that all things
work together for good to them that love
God, to them who are the called according to
11 is purpose.”
Homans 9: II—"For the children being not
yet born, neither having done any good or
evil, that the purpose of God according to
election might stand, not of wcrks, but of
him that culletb.”
Ephesians 1 : II—“In whom also wo have
obtained an Inheritance, being predestinated
according to the purpose of him who work*
eth all things al ter the counsel of his own
will.”
See also Acts 2: 28; Acts 4: 27-
28; Acts 18 : 48; Rom. 8: 28-80;
Bom. 9: 1J-24; Rom. 11: 24;
Eph. 1 : 6-0; 2 Tim. 1:9; 1 Pe
ter 1: 5.
If those cavilers will read the
quotations I give, they will see
clearly t hat the Calvinists have a
strong ° foundation stone to
I do , not write .... this
on. in a
troverBial spirit., for I think it
very wrong and foolish, as before
said, to cavil about God’s holy
word. It should be studied and
discussed w’ith prayer and fasting.
He that is for the Master cannot

Julien Gordon (Mrs. Van Ren-'
ssolaer Cruger) has used for her
last novel a study New York, New¬
port and Boston life, which prom
jses to be read with wide interest
©d in american fashionable life.
No one knows the society of fash¬
ion better than Mrs, Cruger. From
her girlhood up she has had every
opportunity to observe, and we
have had no American woman of .
more brilliant powers, not only of
reading the human heart, but Ol
putting her impressions in de
lightful fashion. A charmingly
fresh Massachusetts girl is saeri
her youth to the ambition
of a ‘ rich mairiage. Depriveti of
love, she throws herself into the
race for social leadership, aud we
follow for twenty years with ever
increasing interest, the career of
this able and beautiful woman as
she captures outpost after outpost

her base of operations to England
and then attacking the main work

“Yellow#” In Feaoli Tr«-.
Question. — Is there any remedy
known for the “yellows” in peach trees:
Answer. —Very many efforts have
been made to cure this apparently mys¬
terious and most destructive disease,
but all without avail. Even the cause
of the disease has not yet been deter¬
mined with certainty. We do’know
that it is highly contagious, and liable
to attack the most vigorous trees of any
age, especially when in bloom. It is
also known to be hereditary. The only
plan so far used successfully for fighting
this disease is to cut down and burn the
tree, root and branch. By this heroic
treatment the disease may at least be
held in check. Good care and thorough
cultivation appear to render the trees
less liable to attack, though they by no
means secure immunity from it. This
disease is very common in the orchards
of the east and north, but as yet has
done but little harm in Georgia. Want
of proper cultivation, and the work of
the “borer,” will frequently cause
peach trees to appear as though they
had the “yellows,” but the disease is as
yet rare with us, and it should not be
permitted by auy carelessness to obtain
a firm foothold.—State Agricultural De¬
partment,

formation in regard to the best winter
grass to sow for hay. laud. Something that

I take out the stumps and “grubs?”

"°° s I’ 1 "’* >“ oh M c f ims ° n cloTer ;
You not only get from , it a good , crop of
hay, but you enrich your soil at the
game time, aud the clover is ready for
cutting in time to make a crop of
corn or cotton on tho same land.
It is somewhat difficult to cure, as it
matures in April, but that is the only
objection. Break your land as deep as
possible and harrow until it is thor
oughiy pulverized. Apply and plow in
200 P ouuds cotton seed meal, 100
pouuds muriate of potash and 100
pounds acid phosphate. Sow 15 to 20
P° uuds of 80ed aboufc the middle ol
September in your county (Carroll) and
harrow in lightly. By all means take
out the stumps and “grubs” before at
tempting to prepare the laud. By fol
lowing directions you should take off a
.

the ground in excellent condition to
make a fine crop of cotton.—State Agri
cultural Department. „ , ,
Nitrogen In Mannrea.
Question. —Please give me in pounds
the amount of nitrogen potash and
Sref andafso a 1 ton ot stablemanSa
Answer.— In a ton of chicken manure
there are 67 pounds of nitrogen, 41
pounds of potash, aud 48.60 pounds of
phosphoric acid. A ton of well rotted
stable manure contains 11 pounds of
nltrogeiJi ]0 pomids o( potashi aud „
p 0U1 ids phosporic acid. Thus you see that
the chicken manure contains six times
as much nitrogen, four times as much
potash. au ^ eight times as much phos¬
phoric acid as does well rotted horse
manure. Chicken manure being so
valuable, more care should be taken to
save it,—State Agricultural Depart¬
meut.

case of horses and mules. Iu the case
of pea vine hay, it has been demon¬
strated that where it has fermented or
become moist after being stored, salt
petre is formed in sufficient quantities
to produce violent irritation of the kid
neys, and if the feeding iB persisted iu,
death often results. Mouldy hay is also
regarded by experienced feeders as ex
tremely dangerous.—State Agricultural
Department.
Black and Red Rent.
Question.—W ill you give me some
information about the diseases our
farmers call “black rust” aud “red
rust?” Oau they be prevented in any
way?
Answer. —Both of these diseases are
due to physiological causes, aud not to
the attacks of any fungus. The “black
rust” should be called the “yellow leaf
blight,” as iu the first stages of the dis¬
ease the leaves assume a decidedly yel¬
low-spotted or mosaic appearance, and
iu this unhealthy condition they are at¬
tacked by various fungus growths,
which gives the leaves a black appear¬
ance, thus giviug rise to the name
“black rust.” The oauses of the dis¬
ease are not well understood as yet. but
it has been demonstrated tuat the fun¬
gus organisms do not originate the dis¬
ease. and that they only hasten the da

struction of the already diseased plants.
Trials of various fungicides have proved
that the disease cannot be prevented by
their application. Experiments at the
Alabama Station showed a reduction of
the disease where kainifc was U3ed as a
fertilizer. This effect is more pro
nounced in seasons of drouth, followed
by copious raius, than when rains are
frequent enough to keep the soil con¬
tinually moist, aud is doubtless due to
the action of the kaiuit ‘‘in binding
more firmly t^jether the soil particles,
so that ft is more retentive of moisture,
or more able to draw it up from below.”
“Wood ashes aud salt are known to
produce much the sama results in the
soil.” The “red rust,” or “red leaf
blight,” which is so common* on thin
uplands, and so rare on rich or alluvial
soils, is the result simply of impover¬
ished soil, showing particularly a lack
of nitrogen, aud probably of potash and
phosphoric acid also. The remedy for
this is by proper rotation of crops, to
fill your land with humus or vegetable
matter, and then with proper fertilizing
and cultivation you will no longer be
troubled with the “red rust.” Much of
our laud, by continuous planting in
cotton, is exhausted of all linmus, and
only by its restoration first of all can
proper fertilizing aud cultivation be
carried on.—State Agricultural Depart¬
ment.
stock:
The condition of stock is fairly good,
considering how much western corn
(much of it damaged) has been used in
the state this year. There have been a
few cases of glanders reported to the
department, some cholera among hogs
and red water among cattle, but these
reports are fewer than usual this year.
