THERE'S a kind of happy feelin' creeps down in a feller when He's got his punkins gathered and the haymow's full agen; There's hope in all the breezes that come blow*in' from the hill, And you git to kind of thinkin' God is up there somewhere still; What a purty sight the wheat is as it's piled up in the bin! Oh, it's good to be a farmer when the crops Are In! It's lively in the city, and it's very quiet here; There's the hurry and the racket keeps a-goin' all the year; There most every clay's excitin', and they keep it up at night; K '"' Every way a person gazes there is some oncommon sight, And I s'pose it's never lonesome livin' round the haunts of sin. But the city people never have their crops All In. There's many a day of toilin', and there's many an ache and pain. And there's lots and lots of frettin' at the dryness or the rain; There's the weeds and worms and insects that the farmer has to fight. But the good Lord doesn't often fail to pull 'im through all right, . And the sweetest satisfaction that a mortal man can win Sort of hovers round the farmer when the crops Are In. ?Chicago Record-Herald. Lingering Summer Cclds. Don't let a cold run at this season.

No Trotible to Help Search. A -woman stopped at a cloth counter in one of the large department stores recently and asked to De snown some dress patterns suitable for early autumn wear. The salesman began on the lowest row of shelved compartments and pulled out and opened box after box until the counter on either side of him was piled as high as his head with goods. Three times he climbed a ladder to the upper rows and staggered down under a weight of box patterns until, when the woman took a survey of the shelves, but two patterns remained unopened. Then she said, very sweetly: "I don't think I'll buy any today. I'm sorry to have troubled you, but you see I only came in to look for a friend." "No trouble whatever, madam," he replied politely. "Indeed, if you think your friend is in either of the remaining two boxes, I don't mind opening them too."?Philadelphia Times. Stasre Effect.

THE VIEWS OF AN EXPERT. What Has Been Done in Development of Dairying and Stocking Raising. Mr. L. A. Ransom, who is well known in the South on account of his conspicuous work in agricultural matters and his connection with the South Carolina department of agriculture, and now with the Southern Cotton Oil Company, as District Manager, at Atlanta, Ga., in writing about the influence of cotton seed products on the development of dairying in the South, says: "About 1850. a few wealthy and enterprising Southern planters imported some Devon cattle from England. These were turned loose in canebrakes with the native scrubs and allowed to roam over large areas of wooded country, picking up a precarious living on the scant pasturage afforded by the woods freshly burned over by the forest fires in the spring. Although widely scattered and a few in number, the prepotency of this breed W O C? c*r? oryan + t not in yviovixt onciti/-?r>o tVia >* ?.w? ov gtcai niak 111 iiicxnj nuuo unt evidence of this infusion of good blood is still visible in the stock. "No well-to-do planter at that time considered that he had milch cows enough to supply the wants of his family unles he owned at least twenty-five or thirty head. These droves of halfwild and half-famished animals were located towards nightfall by the ringing of a bell hung around the neck of the leader. They#were driven to the cow-pen, sometimes miles from where they were found in the woods, a spasmodic effort was made to extract milk from them, penned up over night, and a second attempt made upon them the next morning. The 'average yield' was about one quart per cow. "The idea of increasing this production by judicious feeding was not thought of. This was the rule, but of course there were notable exceptions. People who did not own unlimited acres of land, and who appreciated milk and butter, took better care of their cows, fed them regularly, and allowed them to pasture during the day on their neighbors' land. This pasturing was more to give them proper exercise, and keep them healthy than to afford them any means of subsistence. To such an extent had the cattle interests of South Carolina in 1880 depreciated that the repairs to the farm fence cost more than the value of the caixie in me aiaie, ana me prooaonuy is that the same was equally true of nearly all the Southern States." Then came the "No Fence Law," which compelled the owners to fence the cattle instead of the crops. This forced the farmers to own good milch cows, or none at all, as it became too expensive to feed poor stock. About this time, or perhaps a little earlier, appeared the "Jersey" on the scene, a breed of cattle as suited to the needs of ihose who were "too poor to own a cow, and too proud to milk a goat." But this beautiful little animal soon demonstrated that she was not a "quitter," and, furthermore, that she "filled a long felt want," and, with proper attention, gave rich returns on her cost and keep, and, like the Irishman's pig that he raised in the cabin with his children, she "paid the rent" as well as the freight. As compared with' the Devon, she was smaller "in statue and gave less milk, but the proportion of cream to water in what she did give, far exceeded that of the Devon, the Durham, and Holstein, and she promptly became the prime favorite of small families and butter-makers. But she could not live without feed, and butter could not be produced profitably on corn meal, wheatbran, or cowpea diet, nor could it be produced at all on what the Jersey could pick up in me puoiuies. Nature, always lavish, but provident, hid away ccal in the earth for ages, only to be uncovered when the world needed it most, pointed the way to the gold fields only when this precious metal was absolutely required for the world's commerce, and covered from sight the phosphate rock of the Carolinas until improvident man had destroyed the fertility of the fields, likewise she held back the material required to make dairying in the South possible and profitable, until conditions were favorable for its use. The advent of the Jersey cow created a demand for a cheap and rich food, which the oil mills supplied with hulls and meal. In a list of fifty of the leading feed materials of the United States, the National Department of Agriculture ranks cotton seed meal first, in feeding value and places the value of cotton seed hulls for the same purpose above the best timothy hay. The use of these products has fully j*istained the department's reports, and dairy farming is fast becoming an industry of importance, and this has been larsrelv the result of the liberal policy of the Southern Cotton Oil Co. of the Carolinas and Georgia, which has headquarters at Columbia, S. C., Atlanta, Ga., Savannah, Ga. and Charlotte, N. C., Goldsboro, N. C., and Augusta. Ga. Around the large cities in the South, dairies are successfully operated, supplying the people with wholesome milk, and rich golden butter from cows fed on hulls and meal. The country mills have accomplished the same thing for the farms and small towns. Around the factory towns the small mills make dairying possible, and profitable, as the demand from the operatives is sufficient to consume all the milk and butter that can be produced, and the use of meal for fertilizing the land, which is sold reasonably by the Southern Cotton Oil Company, has greatly enlarged the area devoted to truck farming of all kinds. Without oil mill products dairying would be impossible in many sections of the South. The abundance, cheapness and convenience of the products has a.ready developed the business to an interesting extent and it is only in its infancy, and its growth will increase rapidly each year with the steady improvement in the grade of milch cows. Oleomargarine conf'ns about forty per cent, milk, and the compound is a wholesome product. The establishment of co-operative factories for its manufacture in the .vi cinitv of oil mills where refined oil can be had would give a tremendous impetus to dairying in the South. Notice.
