Irani? the Burglars. The probably fatal shooting of bravo and efficient officer of tho lanta police force, while attempting arrest n burglar, is an additional gnment in favor of the proposition which The Times made some time —that burglary should be made crime punishable by death. No ina! takes greater chances than the burglar. When he enters a peaceful habitation to rob tho inmates of their belongings, he is nine times out of ten prepared to make himself liable for the felony of murder. Discovery in the pursuit of his crime almost in- variably results ina killing. The burglar is the bravest, most audacious of criminals. He knows that is either death or arrest, He realizes that in entering a house under the cover of night he is taking his life i„ his hands. Ho nerves himself to the necessity of the occasion. His hand is ever ready ubon the trigger and ibc slightest stir of the f leeper means to him either his own death or that of a victim of his depredations. The next legislature should look carefully into the matter.—Brunswick, Ga., Times. English in France.

Bicjcle Prices Fall, After several years of exorbitantly large profits the manufacturers of bicycles have been compelled to very ! largely reduce their prices.

A few makers saw this some time ago aud put on the market cheaper | 1 machines at very greatly reduced prices which so cut into tho business <>f the hi her priced manufacturers ! that in 1 pure self defense they were compelled to hi<l good-bye to their old high prices. Why should not the same thing oe- aur with type-writing machines? They no doubt cost considerably less to pro- dnee than bicycles, and yet some of them are selling at the ridiculously high price of $100. It is fair to infer that a machine which sells at $50costs ‘‘lose-to SI 5 to manufacture, - if n few large department stores in New York, Boston, Philadelphia Chi- cago, etc., would arrange for large quantities to be manufactured for them by some one outside of a trust the prices would come down to reasonable figures as have those of bicycles.

Atlanta, Ga., loses in her transfer ease. The decision of Judges Newman and McCormick squarely knocked the j city’s claim of power to require trans- fers off its feet. It left it not a leg to stand on, declaring clearly and defi- nitely that not upon a single ground upon which the city Lad based its claim for authority to force transfers was there legat warrant for the action. It went a step further. It made the remark that the power sought to he exercised went to the extreme munici- pal- authority oven under legislative authority. • It is a complete victory for the Con- solidated and thoroughly establishes the fact that the company has the right to i*pinc its own rate of fare i within a certain limit. The decision not only overrules the city’s demurrer, hut goes so far as to emphatically deny the right of tl.o city to pass an ordinance requiring, ! the street railway company to grant I transfers, | Most of the public and many con- | nected with the ease expected that the j decision would be different. It was thought that a special master would be appointed to investigate the case and that the end would not come in pos- sihly two years, but the judges have \ surprised every one with a decision that settles the litigation, so far as j their courts are concerned, definitely, j CHOPPED ; WIFE’S HEAD 0EE.

Where the land is fresh and free from the seeds of foul weeds, fall turnip seed may be sown broadcast from the first of July until the middle of August, depending on the season, and covered with a light smoothing or brush harrow. Prepare the land very carefully and pulverize and compact the seedbed thoroughly. New ground the second year from sod giyes best re¬ sults. The soil is then rich in plant food and in good tilth, A piece of sod ground broken during the 8 um- mer and seeded to wheat in the fall makes an excellent turnip field the following season, after the wheat has been harvested. Ordinarily such land will not jxroduco a sufficient i umber of weeds to interfere with the full de¬ velopment of the turnips. Pour or five pounds of seed to tho acv^svill give about the right stand. In sections of the country where new land is not available, truck patches from which early vegetables have been removed will answer admirably. plowed Ofteu wheat land is as soon ns the gain has been removed and seeded to turnips. Tho ground must be rich, for turnips are gross feeders, but soil containing an excess of vegetable mat¬ ter will cause an excessive growth of tops, to the detriment of root devel¬ opment. A cool, moist climate is very favorable to the growth of turnips and for this reason the seed should be put in late if the season is dry, then most of the growth will take place in fall. While broadcasting answers verv well on new land, the best results are obtained only when sown in rows and cultivated. Have the row's about two feet apart aud the plants anywhere from six to twelve inches apart in the row. Give level culture, keep the land free from weeds and stir the sur- face often. Turnips are a valuable winter feed for sheep and cattle, particularly the former. When fed to milk cows give just after milking. Otherwise the milk may be given an unpleasant odor and the butter an undesirable taint. They must not be fed in excess to any stock but when other succulent feeds cannot be fed, turnips are invaluable, —American Agriculturist. Farming on Cheap Land. The greatest difficulty iu the way of good farming in this country has al¬ ways been that prices of land were so low that those engaged in farming have been tempted to buy more land than they could profitably work, There should always be an amount of work¬ ing capital equal to at least half of what is invested in land. This should be done even though the land bo only partly paid for. It is much better to leave a part of the cost of land put in a mortgage whose interest can be met cve.y year, than to pay all the money down and leave nothing to work the land with. In a great majority of cases it is the floating capital, rather thau that invested in land, which pays the greatest rate of profit, Farmers have been complaining for years that the merchant, who makes ten to twon- ty-five per cent, on his merchantable stock, has the. advantage of them, They are tied to their farms, and like the man holding fast by the wolf’s tail, cannot, their safely, let go, while it takes all energies to simply hold on and prevent the wolf from turning and rending them. On high-priced land near cities most of the high-priced farm stock is kept. It is usually far more profitable than the stock of the merchant, for that, ex¬ cept iu case of a change in the mar* kets, cannot increase in value, aud is much more likely to decrease. The merchant's stock cannot increase in amount ns can that of the breeder. Tc bo sure, the breeder has losses by casualties to animals, but these are fully offset if not more by the bad debts that the merchant accumulates on his ledger. If the breeder manages rightly his stock may be made to in¬ crease with its product thirty to more than one hundred per cent. There is no kind of business so safe from loss, i other this. thau farming, that pays so well j farmers as Why then is it that so many are poor? It is because they trust too much to their laud to sustain them without having the capital to make the best use of it. Most low-priced land is so because it is far from market; that may make such land unsuitable for growing the fancy only breeds of stock that can usually be sold by having those who in- tend purchasing visit the farm and in- speeting stock on the ground. Yet when a farmer is known to have au extra good class of stock he will find ! customers for it, even if they do find it not very convenient to visit and in- j make speet the it. farm There richer is than no surer to way it fur to ] ! use stock-breeding tility is put into purposes. the soil, If the fer- j there need be no fear tbat some means will be j found the for making it profitable.
