You must help the Liver a bit, and the best heiper is the Old Friend, SUM¬ MONS Liver regulator, the red z. 1 Mr. C. Himrod, of Lancaster, Ohio, says: “Simmons liver regulator broke a case of Malarial Fever of three years’ standing for me, and less than one bottle did the business. 1 shall use it when in need, and recommend it.” Be sure that you get it. Always look fo • the RF.D Z on the package. And don’t forget the word REGULATOR. It is SlAF MONS LIVER REGULATOR, and there is only one, and every one who takes it is sure to be benefited. THE BENEFIT IS ALL IN THE REMEDY. Take it also for Biliousness and Sick Headache ; both are caused by a sluggish Liver. • J. H. Zeilin & Co., Philadelphia. The rolcckUi.

Congress proposes to priate $100,000,000 poses, This looks very much like business. If war comes the money ques¬ tion will be settled and millions of currency will circulate for the benefit of all interested. The yankec colony in Wilcox countv is flourishing. Many families have moved in and many more are going in. How can England a fiord to fight our government? Large portions of her supply of meats, bread and cotton will be cut off. It is said that 700,000 Irish of America have organized into a a society, the object of which is to assist in liberating down trodden Ireland from British rule. Senator Hill has introduced a bill to remove the disabilities of Confederate soldiers. Ah! the valor, bravery and military skill of the “boys in givy” may be needed! Queen Victoria is now in her old ago and has had for over fif¬ ty years a peaceful and glorious rein. What a pity for her king¬ dom to be disturbed with a war at this time! Two weeks ago some Demo¬ crats, all Republicans aud ulists had but little use Cleveland : but this week Dem¬ ocrats, Republicans aud Popu¬ lists endorse him. The Covington Enterprise s:ivs " sale of m o which he gets a royalty of one dollar each. We read that the bale is 127,000. If England acts wisely she will agree to arbitration of the Venezuelan matter. War with the United States means to us the acquisition of Canada ana also Cuba in due time. Christmas will soon be here ; the old yeai’ is drawing to a close and the new will soon be usher ed in. 1896 will doubtless be a year memorable m the political history of this country. 1896 is leap year, If war is declared against England Cleve¬ land will again leap into the presidency with 0 : 1 c bound. ^Al¬ ready a great man lie will be¬ come one of the greatest Ameri¬ ca ever produced. Some people have peculiar ideas as to bow the birth of Christ should be celebrated. We refer to those who employ the yule tide in drunkeness, etc. Intemperance at any time is to be deplored, and the more so during the coming sacred sea¬ son. Beaman! When Bayard went abroad as representative of this govern¬ ment he gave up no rights or privileges as an American citi— zen. If he had a right to criti cisb this government or people here, he has that right any¬ where in the world. Those who wouldimpeach or censure should look well to their own speeches and documents. The President’s special mes¬ sage upon the Venezuela affair is a clear, strong statement of the and . his . well ,, expressed - , case, words carry no uncertain sound. England must take back and agree to arbitration or else face the music. We hope the ques¬ tion can and will be settled sat¬ isfactorily to all concerned rath than that the country shall be plunged intc war, which, when begun, might involve the whole world, for every government is interested in the permanent set¬ tlement of the Monroe doctrine. The report of the principal keeper of the penitentiary re¬ veals the fact that as the negro has advanced in education so has increased the percentage of crime among the colored race. We might inquire whether it is because of education or the re¬ sult of the degenerating in the morals of the whole country? Is it not true that as education advances with the white people there are more crimes committed than in former days? Yet we are not ready to say that this state of things is because of ed¬ ucation. In this day we find high handed wickedness crop¬ ping out from the degraded and educated alike, or in other and better words, from the ignorant and educated alike. Mrs. Anna Gage, wife of Ei Beputy 1). S. ''.

I will have to force water 800 to 1,000 feet distance to a height of from 60 to 75 feet. Which is best to use, a hydraulic ram, a wind¬ mill or a steam engine? How can I place my tanks to sprinkle from eight to ten acres? F. N., Demorest, Ga. Answer. —This question, apparently so simple, involves the consideration of so many conditions that we would not undertake to answer it unless we bad had more experience than is just now usual at the south. This question of irrigation requires not only to be stud¬ ied carefully, but to be practically de¬ veloped, before one can discuss it intel¬ ligently. In the.firsfc place, the amount of water required by our ordinary crops, that is the amount which must be taken up by their roots, the only way in which the plants can appro¬ priate it to properly nourish them from the time the seeds sprout until the crops are matured, is equal to a depth of 1 foot over the entire soil covered by each crop. This is the average require¬ ment, on a medium soil, well cultivated. If the crop is very highly manured, a still greater amount is needed. By ref¬ erence to No. 82 in the present number, you will observe that there are many important points to be considered, be¬ sides the mere collecting of the neces¬ sary amount of water. Wo are just in the A B C's of the the science of irriga¬ tion, which belongs to the highest de¬ velopment of agriculture, and can only be successfully operated on the most valuable lands and under the direction of the most skillful management.
