Land plaster, it is stated by those
who cultivate clover, is an excellent
manure for it, especially, for the red
clover. Many persons in our section
are now cultivating it. In the past it
was thought that it could not be cul
tivated to advantage in our section,
but the farmers are finding out that it
can be grown with much profit in our
Southern States. It grows best on
dav loams that possess a reasonable
fertility but by the use of ashes and
gypsum almost any land will make a
good crop, pr^ak up the land well
after applying them. The land should
be deeply broken, using a subsoil
plow. The roots grow deep and if the
soil is hard below, a few inches, the
subsoil plowing is needed to give the
roots a good chance to go deep.
Those, who wish to grow it in our
section, can cultivate it without a
fear of failure. It is rather late now
for a fall sowing as the roots might be
killed by the *oid winter. It may be
sown in the spring with oats.

The great blast at Stone Mountain,
which has been magnified into a sen

The root crops for swine should con
sist of a variety; the farmer should
grow not only beets and turnips for
them, but parsnips and carrots also.
The cheapest pork is that made by se

To preserve goods from moths, do
not use camphor in any' form. Pieces
of tar paper laid in fur boxes and in
closets are a better protection. Five
cents will buy enough to equip all the
packing boxes and closets of a large
house for a year.
More failures in transplanting come
from having soil loosely packed in
and among the roots any' other cause,
No root can take hold of an air space.
Merely tramping the soil on the sur
face after the tree is set is not enough.
If fine soil is w orked among the roots,
and these first w'et to make it adhere,
the tree will almost certainly' live.
Plants as Bad as Weeds.—Many
farmers plant too thickly'. In plant
ing corn, for instance, every corn
plant over and above the requisite
number is just as bad as if it were a
weed. On a small plant in a garden,
where it can be worked and watered
every five days, twice or three times
as much corn can be made to the
same space.
The most remarkable story' ever
told in The Constitution is that print
ed that morning from Ainericus. An
Ohio farm-laborer, having some idle
time on his hands, asked the privilege
of curing the grass in an abandoned
cotton field. He worked six days,
curing twenty-four tons Of bay,
which, at $20 a ton, would bring him
$230 for his share. He has been offer
ed $120 for it on the ground. This is
a lesson over which every' southern
farmer should ponder.—Atlanta Con
stitution.
Germany and France we have seen
it stated, will go more largely into the
cultivation of sugar beets for the pro
duction of beets for making sugar.
To this conclusion they have come,
because, as it is stated, they And this
more profitable than other crops.
Their clim&teg do not admit of the
cultivation of the cane. Sugar ought
to be cheaper here where we make it
from the cane and the returns are so
much greater than from beets. If
their 65 or 70 millions of people can
be supplied with sugar from beets,
that, from the countries using the
cane, ought to be much cheaper than
it is. It is the high price of sugar
that makes them go so largely into
tne beet culture.
Beans as Food.
Washington Evening Star.
The nutritive value of beans is
greater than almost any other article
of food in common use. Considering
their richness, they are probably the
cheapest food we have. In preparing
beans for the table they should first
be well soaked in cold water, then
thrown in boiling w'ater and cooked
of a medium consistency, between a
fluid and a solid, neither too thick nor
too thin. They require some acid
when eaten, and a sufficient amount
of salt to render them palatable.
They may be eaten with potatoes or
other vegetables which contain more
starch and less albumen, rather than
with too much bread or meat.

New Fork Times.
The disease known as scratches
produced by local irritation from any
eause, such as exposure to wet, mud,
or filth, operating upon a disordered
condition of the blood. There is a
contagious form ot the disease pro
duced by a parasitic fungoid growth
which is spread by the spores from a
diseased surface becoming attached
to any wounded part of the foot. A
scratch or cut by a calk on the horse’s
foot may thus be infected by contact
with litter or manure upon" which a
diseased horse has trodden, and the
disorder is olten spread in this manner
in large stables or the stables of hotels
and liverymen. The treatment is
similar in either case. The diseased
•kin should be washed with warm
water and soap and bathed freely
with a saturated solution of hyposul-
phate of soda; or a solution of one
dram of sulphate of zinc in a pint of
water twice a day. An ounce of hy
posulphite of soda should he given

Probably no one thing has caused
such a general revival of trade at
John M. Clark’s Drug Store as their

many free trial bottles of Dr. King’s

Chicago, Sept. 29.—A special from
Ottawa, Ont., published here this
morning says: Word has been received
by the department of mounted police
from the Crow Creek agency of the
Northwest Territory, that the Blood
Indians from that reservation have
gone on the war path and are devasta
ting about there in revenge for the kil-
ing of six of their band recently by the
Gros Ventres. They left their reserva
tion, so the report states, Monday
morning after the war dance and
went South to Hudson, N. W. T.,
where they came on a small settle
ment of whites, some sixteen in num
ber, of whom ten were women and
children. These were all killed and
scalped, the besieging party carrying
off the scalps as trophies on poles.
They then continued on their way to
the Gros Ventres settlement. Along
their track were many farm houses of
settlers. These were all laid in ashes,
and the inhabitants killed and scalp
ed. Not less than one hundred
whites have so far fallen victims to
the red devils’ knives. Among those
killed are two Roman Catholic mis
sionaries at the Crow Foot Agency,
whose bodies are said to have been
terribly mutilated. The whites at the
reservation, including the Indian
agent, have been killed. After leaving
the agency, about thirty miles toward
the American borders, the Crow Feet
met with about sixty Gros Ventres,
and a desperate -fight ensued. The
killed and wounded on each side can
not be estimated correctly, but it is
believed the Crow Feet lost nine killed
and thirty wounded, while over fifty
fell belonging to the Grcss Ventres
tribe. One hundred and fifty ponies
were captured by the attacking party
as well as a large amount of clothing
and ammunition.
It is estimated by the department
that at least $25,000 worth of property
belonging to settlers is being burn
ed and otherwise destroyed, while
the loss of life cannot be ac
curately calculated. Two detach
ments of mounted police have been
ordered to put down the rising, but it
is expected that the whole force, some
1,500 men, will be necessary, as the
Rockies and Canada Sioux will join
in the uprising. Crowfoot, the Chief
of the rebellious tribe, is now on his
way here, and cannot, therefore, be
expected to use his influence to put
down the rising. Hon. P. A. Carren,
Minister of the Militia, will call out a
force of at least 2,000 infantry and
cavelry to go to the scene of trouble
and assist thejmounted police. In the
meantime, until they reach the scene,
hundreds may be sacrificed and any
amount of property destroyed. A
general rising of Indians is feared.
