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

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."

Dkpaktmknt on Aumcur.TunR, Atlanta, Ga., Sept, 3, 18115. 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 The late August rains have greatly lutcrforodwith tho work of preparation, which is unfortunate, as this work has more influence on tho yield of these crops than, perhaps, all other condi lions combined, lortilization notes cep ted; lor, without thorough and deep proparatiou no fertilizer can perform its lull mission, and much valuable and costly plant food is thus wasted. Last month v/o dwolt somewhat at length on the preparation, fertilization and sowing of these crops, and we will only reiterate here time, on the oarli ness these and thoroughness jgitli which details are attended to, depends success or failure. Ic is not yet too late to push this work of preparation, and tho recent rains have left the land in fine condition to do the work very SiullL EL,8 Jw’.t “o«,““ 1 SSSVSS ^ ; j, 1 Jh , , I K b6 T'Tf W.

Archer, M. D., iii Bo. Oxford St., Brooklyn, N. Y. “ Our physicians in the children’s depart¬ ment have spoken highly of their experi¬ ence in their outside practice with Castoria, 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 favor upon it.” United Hospital and Dispensary, Boston, Mass.

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, FALL PLOWING. w. would „„ ,1„ importance Of deep fall plowing on the stiff, clay lands of the state-of thoroughly break >«* *<* «■* though notadvisa b ie to bring too much to the surface, a little will not hurt.

S “ 7 saving of our corn crop. • Porha P s farmers aroaware that b b v our P^sent wasteful plan of pull - “, 1S tb ® cora aud A ud ieavla 8 tUe ? talk 111 the beld * ,0 or aeariy ^ ths ralua of the eutiru pro- ducTTs Wasluu. 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.
