Castoria is Dr. Samuel Pitcher’s prescription for Infants
and. Children. It < contains neither Opium, Morphine nor
other Narcotic substance. It is a harmless substitute
for Paregoric, Drops, Soothing' Syrups, and Castor Oil.
It is Pleasant. Its guarantee is thirty years’ use by
Millions of Mothers. Castoria destroys Worms and allays
feverishness. Castoria prevents vomiting Sour Curd,
cures Diarrhoea and Wind Colic. Castoria relieves
teething troubles, cures constipation and flatulency.
Castoria assimilates the food, regulates the stomach
and bowels, giving healthy and natural sleep. Cas¬
toria is the Children’s Panacea—the Mother’s Friend.

"Castoria is an excellent medicine for chil¬
dren. Mothers have repeatedly told me of its
good effect upon their children.”
Dr. G. C. Osgood,
Lowell. Mass.

" Castoria is the best remedy for children of
which i am acquainted. I hope the day is not
far distant when mothers will consider the
real interest of their children, and use Castoria
inslead of the various quack nostrums which
are destroying their loved ones, 1>y forcing
opium, morphine, soothing syrup and other
hurtful agents down their throats, thereby
sending them to premature graves."

The farmer’s fall campaign opens
with tho month of September. After
the comparative leisure of August, ho
should start iu with renewed energy
r.ud with brain and muscles nerved for
the task ho settles down to the steady
work of gathering in tho crops, and
getting tho fall grains and grasses prop¬
erly seodod.
GRAINS AND GRASSES

which is unfortunate, as this work has
more influence on tho yield of these
crops than, perhaps, all other condi
lions combined, lortilization notes

proparatiou no fertilizer can perform

costly plant food is thus wasted.

and sowing of these crops, and we will
only reiterate here time, on the oarli

“ Our physicians in the children’s depart¬

and although we only have among our
medical supplies what is known as regular
products, yet we are free to confess that the
merits of Castoria has won us to look with

COTTON.
As the cotton opens the pickers
should keep up with it. Early picked
and clean cotton commands a better
price than where the sample is in¬
jured by beating rains, or stained
from tho weather, Attention has
already been repeatedly called to the
condition in which our American
cotton reaches European ports. The
eastern cotton growers set us an ex¬
ample in this respect which, if we
would imitate, would moan thousands
of dollars to us. The Indian and Egyp¬
tian grower sends his cotton to market
in neat, compact bales, well covered;
ours is ragged and unsightly, and often
enough of the contents of each bale is
wasted in transit to pay for any addi¬
tional care and expense which might be
necessary to put it np in better market¬
able shape.
Tho actual per cent deducted, because
of our careless methods, when the price
of our staple is fixed in Liverpool,would
be an astonishing revelation to the ma¬
jority of farmers.
WHEAT
need not be sown until October and the
time should be regulated, as far as we
can judge, to about ten days before the
first frost usually comes. Wherever
wheat is to be sown, the use of lime
cannot bo too highly estimated. Its
office is to bring into available condition
much of the mineral plant food locked
np in the soil and otherwise unavaila
bie. It also sets free nitrogen, by pro
znoting the earlier decay of vegetable
matter. The growth of the wheat is
thus pushed forward more rapidly—an
important consideration—because wo
wish it to be well started before the
Winter sets in.
The land for wheat should bo plowed
deeply and then allowed harrowed^ to settle before
the surface is finely and the
seed put iu. This should be done at a
depth of three or four inches, the soil
being made as fine as possible,

This has not only been proven by ana¬
lysis, bnt by experiments in feeding.
The stains are troublesome to handle,
and cannot be profitably used in their
present, shape for feed, In the manure
pile they decompose so slowly as to be
very undesirable for bedding, therefore,
under ordinary conditions, it is not sur¬
prising that the farmer leaves them
standing in r.he Held, and if they prove
very unmanageable when tiie crop
preparation begins, they are often piled
and burned?
It is not necessary to state that a
waste of nearly one fourth the returns
in any other business would swamp it
in the first few years. One, and the
principal reason that the stalks have
not heretofore been more thoroughly
utilized, is that we have had no ma¬
chine for overcoming tiie difficulties of
handling the entire corn product to ad¬
vantage. Bnt, as is usually the case,
when the necessity arises the ma¬
ehinery is evolved fro in the over active
brain of the inventor, and a machine is
now on the market which cuts or shreds
the stalk, fodder and shuck in such i
manner as to give the ver ' best fodder,
and the waste forms a most desirable
bedding, which is easily converted into
manure. Those who have tested it
pronounce it practical. It therefore
rests with the farmer to save his corn
crop uct* in such shape that the entire prod¬
stalk, leaves, shuck and grain can
be utilized. This is, of course, as yet a
new departure in southern farming. If
a farmer does not wish to subject his
whole corn crop to an untried process,
let. him give it a trial on at least a part
of it. Some farmers through the state
are making a test with the present
year’s crop. Let each one resolve that
another year he will make the experi¬
ment. The corn should be cut off at
the root, the stalks placed in well built
shocks arid tied around the top with
binders’ twine. After they are cured
they are taken to the barn where, if the
shredding machine is used, no part is
wasted. The problem for us to solve
just now is as to the very best method
of saving the corn by this process, the
machine will do the rest.
The outlook seems to be favorable to
a better price for cotton, and if the
crop can be marketed to meet the de¬
mands of the trade rather than the in¬
dividual obligations of farmers, no
doubt the price can be sustained; but
if afarmer’s notes fall due. he has no al¬
ternative, and thus much cotton is often
forced on the market at a time when it
is not needed by the spinners, and the
consequence is lower prices.
There are so many qualifying condi¬
tions surrounding this whole question,
that it is difficult to advise intelligent¬
ly; at last, each individual must care¬
fully weigh every attendant circum¬
stance and decide for himself.
