f ÜBAHM CIXTIKE AT THE SUITH. BY FRANCIS FONTAINE. [Concluded.] MODS OF HAVING HAY. Bjn England, anil also near our I |ra.' cities in America, great care is necessary in order to save hay so n> |to command a ready sale.’ When | cultivated on a large scale here on a l oot'" 11 plantation, much of the ex mEbusc of preparation is dopensed jtjfiih. For example, there is probably not a single “Tedder” in use in Geor gyia. The mode of saving hay depends : chiefly on the weather. We will I gi'e a short description of the usual mode as practised on my plantation, Kotasa guide, but to illustrate the most economical method: One man, with a good team and mower, can cut down about six acres per day on an average. This should remain on the ground, if it does not ruin, until nine o’clock tho following day. He should then takoahorse rkc and he will rake it into "wind rows” in four hours. Raking the hay cut in the afternoon of tho previous day as late in the afternoon as feasi ble, in order to let it cure as much as possible. Three additional hands will, in tho afternoon, throw it in small haycocks with pitch forks. Let it remain thus until cured, and if rain occurs before it is hauled to the rick, or stuck, it should bo uncapped and sun-dried. Usually one hand can look after a large meadow thus. When cured sufficiently, a central location should be selected for tho rick, and one hand with a male and rope can drag these shocks to the rick Las fast as three hands can stack it. No wagon is necessary. If it is in tended to store tile hay in a barn, it will bo necessary to haul with a wag on ; in which case about twice as much time will be consumed. The rick should be inpiieil with wheat straw, and a straw rope passed over and ar<>und it in order to se •are it from being overt iirowu by tho winds. For clover, we believe that six acres is enough to form one rick, as it is liable to become moldy and damaged if placed in large hulks, unless mix ed with other I my. No further cost is incurred until if is packed for mar ket. Except in the nighborhood of cities, it is necessary to pack it and haul to market or to depot. The hay is also usually kept over until Spring in order to insure a good price and rapid sale. It should be transported to tho depot whenever it is necessary to go there after goods or freight for plantation use, the cost of trans portation being materially reduced in this manner. The average price in Atlanta since the war has been $!) pm ton; se wo are justified in valu ing hay at S2O tier ton on the planta tion. In lower Georgia cities it is Worth $lO more per ton than in At lanta. Considering tho above ns a fair esti mate, our account will be : DEBIT#. iTu 1 hand ant team 1 day mowing.

Thu Chicago Times sold twenty thousand extra copies on t he strength of the editor’s going to jail.

Miss Anna Semiues, daughter of Raphael Homines, was married at Memphis on the sth, to Mr. C. B. Bryan of that city. Bishop (Quintan! performed the ceremony, which took place beneath the large Confederate tlag presented to Se mines by the la dies of London, while commanding the Alabama. - An Arkansas youth came to his father, and said: “Dad, they ain’t knives enuff to sot the table.” Dad— “Whar’s big butch, little butch, the case, cob-handle, granny’s knife, and the one I handled yesterday. Thar’s enuff to sot any gentleman’s table, without you’ve lost um.” Newspaper Advertising. Newspaper advertising is now rec ognized by business men, having faith in their own wares, as the most effective means of securing, for their goods a wide recognition of their merits. Newspaper advertising impels in quiry, and when the article offered is of good quality and at a fair price, tlio natural results is increased sales, i Newspaper advertising is a perma nent addition to the reputation of the goods advertised, because it is a permanent influence always at work in their interest. Newspaper advertising is the most energetic and vigilant of salesmen; addressing thousands each day, al ways in the advertiser’s interest, and ceaselessly at work seeking custom ers from all classes. Newspaper advertising promotes trade, for even in the dullest times advertiser’s secure by far the largest share of what is being done.— I John Manning. RANKIN HOUSE. Columbus, Georgia, MRS. F. M.
