Bill Arp on Farm 1115;.
It/s a wonder to me that everybody
don't go to farming. Lawyers and I
doctors have to sit about town and j
play checkers, and talk politics and j
~ wait for somebody to quarrel or fight,
or get sick; clerks and book-keepers j
figure and multiply and count until i
they get to counting stars, and the i
flies on the ceiling, and the peas in the
dish, and the flowers on the papering;
the jeweler sits bv his window all the
year round, working 0:1 little wheels,
and the mechanic strikes the same kind
of a lick every day. These people do I
not belong to themselves; they are all I
penned up like convicts in a chain j
gang; they can't take a day nor an
hour for recreation, for they are the
servants of their employers. There is
no profession that gives a man such
freedom, such latitude and such a
variety of employment as farming.
There's no monotony upon the farm.
There's something new every day, and
the changing work brings into action
every muscle in the human frame. "We
plow and hoe, and harrow and sow,
and gather it in at harvest time. We
lnol- fhp hnrcps and cows, the
pigs and sows, and the nuns and the I
Jambs, and the chickens and the tur-!
keys and gee?e. We en: our own
wood, and raise our own bread and
meat, and don't have to be stingy of it
like city folks. A friend, who visited
us not long ago, wrote back from the
tnvvn rhat. his orate doesn't seeni bi<r?ror
thai; the crown of his hat since he sat
by our great big friendly fire-place.
I may be mistaken, butj it seems to
me a little higher grade s>f happiness
to look oqt upon the green - fields of
wheat and the leafing trees and blue
mountains in the distance and hear the
dove cooing to her mate, and the whippoorwill
sing a welcome to the night,
and hunt flowers and bubby blossoms
with the children, and make whistles
for ?em and hear 'em blow, and see em
get after a iumpin' frog or a garter
snake, and hens' nests, and paddle in
the branch and get. dirty and wet all
over, and watch their penitent and
subdued expression when they go
home, as Mrs. Arp looks at 'ein with
amusement and exclaims: "Mercy on
me; did ever a poor mother have such
a set! Will I ever get done making
clothes! Put these on right clean this
morning, and nut another clean rag in
the house! Go get me a switch, right
straight, go! 1 will not stand it!"
But she will stand it and they know it
?especially if 1 remark: "Yes, they
ought to be whipped." That saves
?em, and by the time the switch comes
the tempest is over and some dry
clothes are found, and if there is any
cake in the house they gee it. Blessed
mother! fortunate children! What
would they do without her? Why her
very scolding is music in their tender
ears. Fm thankful that there are some
things that corner in the domestic circle
that Wall Street cannot buy nor
monev king's dem*ess. ? Michigan

Green Manuring.
A system of green mauring has been
practiced from very early periods.
The ancient Romans plowed in lucerne
or alfalfa, and many modern agriculturists
practice the* same thing. In
Europe a regular system of green manuring
is followed by all practical agriculturists.
They use white lupine,.
the bean, vetch, borage,, spmy, turnip
vines, buckwheat, rye, winter tares,
clover, sea-weed, and many other
plants. Th'eS plow in the plants when ,
the flower jtrsi- begins to. open. But j
few of the above-mentioned [Wantshare
been cultivated in this country with
success. We -have used the potato
f A*\t> / V* crraflf-on/l Kaon
ivuo any* jLii3uy} ut^u ,
turnip fops, and our cultivated 'mustard,
on a -$fl}all...scale1 and can sav we !
were well pleased with, the renlt. The 1
lops should be buried in the middle of
the rows when, the'potatoes are dug.
It takes a little time to- dig potatoes
when you stop-to-bury the tops, but
we beiieve it pays. We have also experimented
with the pea, green corn,
crab grass and weeds of various kinds,
and find that all improve the soil wonderfully
when buried in the green state.
There is a diversity of opinion among
practical men of the South as to the
mode of applying green manures.
Some think green plants used for this
purpose should be left 011 the ground
to decay, instead of plowing in. We
are deciedly in favor of plowing in the
green plant. If the plant is buried - in
the green state, more of the .vegetable
or organic part ot it is saved. When
a green plant is permitted to decay in
the open air, it passes more or less into
carbonic acid, which escapes into the
air and is lost to the farmer. It is contended
by some that all our green j
plants used for manure should decay
on the ground in the open air, as tins
. is following nature. We admit that it
is in imitation of nature, but nature is
more bountiful, and able to diffuse
carbonic acid throughout the atmosphere,
for all natural plants to feed
upon. Not so with the agriculturist;
he is confined to a small area of land,
and should rftb nature,.if possible, of
all the carbonic acid that is in his
green plants used for manure, ' by
plowing them under in the green state.
When a plant is buried under the surface,
this formation of carbonic acid
proceeds slowlv, and other compounds
preparatory to the final change into
carbonic acid and water are produced
in greater quantity and linger i:i the
soil. Thns the fanner, by burying
green vegetabTe matter in hi? land,
actually saves a portion of tin? vegetable
food of plants which would oiherwise
be lost. In some of the Northern
States; the clover is never cut, but is
plowed in as the only manure; in
other parts the first is cut' and the
second plowed in. Corn is sown upon
land at the rate of from luur to six I
bnshels per acre, and two or three i
snch crops turned under during' the
summer,and then followed by an oaisor
wheat crop. The cow pea is the clover
of the South; in other words, the peais
to the South what clover is to the
North. Every fanner in the South
should cultivate the pea for forage and j
greeu manure.
We have already stated that we have
experimented with the pea for mauurial
purposes. This was our mode:
We planted a small crop of corn in
rows 4? feet apart. Just before "laying
by" the com, we ran between the
rows "with a shovel plow, and in this
fnriv-vTTr eriTt-pr? o rntv nf* Yipfic 'Phis
was followed with a double shovel,
laying by the corn and leaving the
land nearly level. When the corn was
gathered we buried the peas from one
end of the rows to the other, running
the two furrows to the row. In the
following spring we burst out the
middles and planted corn in the beds
where the peas had been buried, opening
and covering with a bull tongue
plow. The crop of corn that followed
was much better than the preceding, j
* knrra I
JL iici c iiw*T ^ LTOCU L\yyj ui up vi
corn raised on this piece of land since,
and the effects of the green manuring
are still to be seen. On another piece
of land, containing two acres, we
sowed five bushels of what is known
as the "creeper" pea, broadcast. In
the fall, just before frost, we ;arned
the vines under and let the land remain
undisturbed until the 20th of the
following March, at which time it was
broken broadcast and sown in oats.
Although so late in the season, we
never made a better crop of oats.
After the oats were cut a good deal of
grass and weeds sprang up, which was
Elso plowed under in the fall. The ]
next year this piece of ground was
planted in corn, and the heavy yield
showed conclusively the power and A
influence of green vegetable matter
when properly applied to the soil. "We
are ot the opinion that the soil is now A
richer in vegetable matter than it was
before the first crop was planted oij it,
ior uie reason lu.u pernaps uneefourths
of nil the organic matter we
buried in the soil with those crops of c
peas, weeds and grass was derived ^
from the air.
When vegetable matter is plowed in *
it is more generally diffused through t
tbe soil, and it is believed by some >
practical farmers that a green .crop
properly buried will enrich ihe soil as
much as the droppings of cattle from s
a quantity of green food three times

Mr. D. E. Gaskin, a weil known cit- 1
izen of that village, writes under the i
date of December 22d: ?
Soon after my marriage, abont four 1
years ago, my wife was stricken with t
some trouble peculi.u* to her sex, 1
which broke down her general health, j
In this condition she was soon after
attacked with Inflammatory Rheuma- 1
tism of such a severe type that it made \
her a cz*ipple. She was reduced in ^
flesh to sixty-five pounds,- and came j
very near- losing her life. She was ?
attended by three good physicians i
who treated her with some benefit, t
but the swelling in her joint's never J
left her. Last summer the Hhenma- ^
tism returned in a still morr? sevorp J
and painful form which seemed to defy \
the skill of ail the doctor?. She would c
go frantic with pain, and would lie i
and scream all day. A friend of mine t
who is an engineer on the Brunswick i
& Albany Railroad, suggested that I i
should u=e Swift's Specific (S. S. S.), e
which I did. After she had taken one f
small bottle she was up and nble to t
walk all over the house, and after c
taking the six bottles she is able to t
do any kind of house work: the swell- t
ing has gone, all the pain has left her,
and she is in better health than she i
ever was. The treatment before using I
the Swift's Specific cost me between t
$350 to $400, and the six bottles of c
S. S. S. cost me six dollars.
It is certainly the most wonderful c
medicine and the best blood purifier c
in the world. The proprietors should ?
let the world know about it.
Note?The S. S. S. Company wish
to caution purchasers in regard to the c
numerous imitations of their goods. \
Some carry the lie on the face, pnr- 1
porting to be vegetable remedies; 1
when, in fact, they are really strong

Of course, it is too soon to make,
)redictions as to the result of the Ex- [
>osition, so lar as the material interest j
>f the State is concerned, but some i
>euefits are already apparent. In a {
feueral way, I may say that the South:rn
exhibits have enthused the Southsrn
people and astounded the people
>f other sections of the Union. The j
Exposition has undoubtedlv fully
_ ?4.u~
icmonsuaieu me nupuriumv ui wu
south over any other section of the
:onntrv in natural resources. The
>euu(iful exhibits of the Northwestern
states are composed chiefly of cereal
productions, the Pacific States and
territories of minerals, the Northern
md Eastern States of manufactured
jroclucts and machines, showing the
nventive genius of these energetic
jeople^ while the Southern States cxlibit
everything that is shown iu the
>ther States and ,iriany things that are
iot exhibited in' those States. The
nineral exhibits of "North Carolina,
Georgia, Alabama, Virginia and Teulessee
are equal to those of California,'
\rizona, Colorado, Dakota or New
Vlexico. The grain exhibits of South
Jarolina, Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas
md Kentucky are as complete__and
ittractive as those of Minnesota, Ji.au;as,
Nebraska, Iowa or Illinois. The
imber exhibits of any of the Southern
states are . not surpassed by. those of
my of the great lumber States, of the
Jnion. The exhibits of
MANUFACTURED PRODUCTS
n the Southern States' departments
urnish conclusive proof that the Northsrn
and Eastern States no longer enjoy
i monopoly in that direction. The
argest exhibits of agricultural ma:hinerv
are made by Kentucky manufacturers,
while Machinery llali conains
numerous evidences of the ingenuity
of Southern mechanics. So
hat in all the principal departments of
.he Exposition the South is competing
successfully with any part of the
Jnion. In the special exhibits the
south is far ahead. Louisiana sugar
s as superior to the Minnesota product
is is possible for one article to surpass
mother in excellence. Louisiana salt
s practically without a rival. South
Carolina rice heads the list. Florida
iefeated California in the contest for
premiums for citron fruits. Jforth
Carolina golden leaf tobacco is unequalled.
Tenuessee marble is the
richest and most beautiful at the Exposition,
with the possible exception of
:he North Carolina flesh-colored specinens.
Alabama iron is as superior as
t is abundant, and her iron deposits
md coal fields are inexhaustible. Ar.-aneoc
<snrl Parnlinn. make t.hfi
nost varied and extensive display of
raits, apples, peaches, pears and
jrapes of any States in the Union.
The sea island cotton of South Caroina
is not even approximately approached
by the staple g'-own anyvhere
else in the world, while the
phosphates of our State command the
ittention of the scientist, the man of
:oramerce, and expecially the agriculurist.
If the exhibits of all the other
states were grouped together they
vonld then be considerablv below the
southern States in the variety of their
productions. These facts "have, of
;ourse, impressed uiemseives upon an
intelligent and observant visitors to
he Exposition, and it is certainly
eusonable to suppose will give a great
mpetus to the development of Sonthsrn
resources. The commissioners
roin the South are enthusiastic over
he prospect, ana are unanimous in the
>pinion that their States will be imnensely
benefited by their exhibits in
he near future.
Corning down to particulars, it is
lard to say what immediate good has
>een dope, but I uiav mention some
hings of probable profit to South Carilinft
Some few weeks siuce the Japanese
:ominissioner called at the South Car>lina
department for information regarding
the
PHOSPHATE ROCK
>f the State. He said that he was a
neraber of the Japanese bureau of
ndustry and, under a commission from
hat bureau, had been for two years in
Liou'.'.on investigating the manufacture
tnd use of commercial manures. In
lis investigation he had found allusions
o the South Carolina phosphate de)osits,
but the information he had beeu
ible to obtain was very meagre. He
jxamined the rock 011 exhibition in the
State department and the chemicals
ised in its manufacture. He found
hat fish scrap was one of the ingredi:iits
used for ammoniating purposes,
od he at o::ce expressed the opinion
hat as there are millions of tons of it
11 Japan it might be transported to
South Carolina and exchanged for
ibosphate rock, and if such an arrahgenent
could be made it would open a
nleiidid market for the rock and de
elop an industry of considerable
nagnitude. He returned to bis own
ixhibit and brought the commission
wo samples of the scrap alluded to
Chis was sent to Professor Chazal,. the
;hemist of the department of agriculure,
who analyzed it and reported
hat its commercial value was about
!o per cent, higher than' the scrap
iow used by the manufacturers of
fertilizers. This was communicated to
he Japanese commissioner and he exiresseu
the belief that while this chemcal
test showed the superiority of the
lupanese article, it could be laid
lown in Charleston at a much lower
>rice than the manufacturers now pay.
Ie subsequently informed me that he
lad communicated these facts to his
Government, and hoped to have all the
nformation necessary to enable him to
iecide whether or not it is practicable
o-i-establish the business he desire-.

ally. Allusion 'to the matter was
nade in an editorial in one of the
ocal papers and met the eye of a.
Jorjnan who wafe-Visiting the Exposiioir.
He was so interested in it that
le called at the South Carolina de-'
>artment to examine the phosphate .
sxhibit. He said he was interested in
nainit deposit in Germany, and he
aw no reason why a similar arrangenent
could not be made for the ex:hauge
of kainit for phosphate rock,
ie obtained such information as he
lesired and promised to call again, or
:orrespond with manufacturers and
ninprs A Mississinni nlanter who
tad never used commercial manures
nformed me that he would order thirty
ons of South Carolina fertilizers this
eason, and was induced to do so by
he exhibit. A gentleman who owns
wo large orange groves said that
limself and many other owners of
rroves, who had heretofore used
Northern fertilizers, would hereafter
ise nothing but the Carolina products,
kn owner of one of the largest sugar
plantations near New Orleans said:
that lie used about two hundred tons I
of fertilizers every season, and nearly
.all of it was manufactured in the
North, but hereafter he thought he
would buy largely of the South Carolina
manufacturers. The Florida commissioner
was presented with a quantity
of the South Carolina fertilizer,
shipped to New Orleans for distribubution,
and it was used on his orange
groves,, and he reports that the results
have been sa. satisfactory that he is
sure many of the owners of groves in
Florida wfll use'it another year. Many
^farmers from the Western Stales who
have never used commercial manures
of any kind arc anxious to make sotne
experiments with them, and it is possible
that sorue orders may be received
from tliern, aiid if the introduction of
these fertilizers is satisfactory it will
be followed by a large business. The
South Carolina fertilizer exhibit has
given such a boom to this industry
that manufacturers all over the Union
will be benefited, but of course not to
the same extent as our own companies.
THE WOOD EXHIBIT
has attracted almost as much attention
as the phosphate display. Lumbermen
from all sections of the country
have visited the Exposition and have
been pleased with the exhibits from all
the Southern States. In the South
Carolina department there are about
140 specimens of native woods, all of
merchantable size, and they attract
much attention. Inquiries relating to
the-timber resources of tfie State have
been frequently made, and these invest
iirations will no doubt result in a
.rapid development of the lumber industry
at no distant day. The exhibit
of manufactured goods and the maps
of the water powers of the State have I
attracted attention to the advantages
afforded by the State for factories of
.every description, and this should result
in bringing capital here for investment
in such enterprises. The
varied agricultural productions of the
State illustrated by the exhibit have
given a correct impression regarding
our agricultural capabilities, and the
interest that has been shown by visitors
in this division convince me that
it will be the means of inducing an
influx of
PROSPEROUS SMALL FARMERS
from the Northwestern States and
elsewhere to South Carolina. The
display of ores and building stones
will, 1 am satisfied, cause the development
of our resources in that direction.
Our special exhibits, rice, naval stores
and fish, have been of immense benefit
to the State in showing the variety of
our productions and our natural
wealth, while the exhibit of birds and
animals from the Charleston Museum
has not been excelled in the quality of
the specimens even by the spleudid
displays of the Smithsonian Institute,
and have not been equalled by that of
any State.
South Carolina has never been more
favorably before the people of the
world than she is to-dav. and I do not
exaggerate the
IMPORTANCE OF THE EXHIBIT
when I say that the good impressions
regarding the resources of the State
are in a large measure due to the
stand we have taken at the Exposition.
Some of the States could have remained
away from New Orleans and not
have been greatly injnred by their
absence, but South Carolina has been
so long and so persistently misrepresented
that it was absolutely necessary
for our State to disabuse the public
mind of the impressions that have been
created by these false statements. I
do not hesitate to say that this has \
been accomplised and that hereafter j
we will stand before, the country in |
our nroner Dosition. But frreaL as the
good may be that our State has derived
iu this way, the greatest benefit
has been in the knowledge of our resources
that the exhibit has given our
own people. Old South Carolinians
who left the State years ago visit the
department at New Orleans and are
astonished at the variety, quantity and
quality of the exhibit: Our own
people are little less surprised, and
they leave the Exposition with a higher
regard for their homes than they
ever entertained before. They examine
the products of the other States,
and then their own and they realize
that South Carolina offers them every
opportunity for the acquirement of
wealth or the delights of a home that
any other section does, and they return
to the State with the determination
to develop her resources and to
spend 'their lives upon her soil. If
therefore, we waive all the possible
benefits to come to the State from
outside, we have been
AMPLY REPAID
for all expenditures on the exhibit by
the elevation of-t.he Statein the mind?
of her own citizen's.'/Ibu addTtipiv- to
this, peopfeitr
assistingfthe department .in tl^e colfet:tion
of these specimens has given'then*
a better understanding - of- 4he- varied"
resources of the State, .and this will"
result in a better system of agriculture'
and the development of new ideas^.
and this will, in itself, go a -long way
in the advancement of" the material
progress of the State.

seeking an opening in the ice and for
?ixty h >nrs his vessel was snrrounded
by iceliflas and icebergs of enormous
size. He had for companions in peril
the Allan steamer Caspian and a considerable

He estimates that the icebergs were
many thousands in number and says
there is 110 record or tradition of such
quantities of ice so far from the polar

From time immemorial, no one will pretend

a LEGAL KISS implies ACTION on both
parties: but when a lady simply consents
to be kissed without action of r.er lips, it
constitutes only a PASSIVE kiss?a sweet
deprived t>f its nectar.
Snugly ensconsed within a mess-embowered

of America, says tliat while a passenger from
New York on board a ship going around Cape1 .
Horn, in the early days of emigration to California,
he learned that one of the officers of
the vessel had cured himself, during the voyage,
of an obstinate disease by the use of
Ajer's Sarsaparilla.
Siuco then Sir. Lelaxd has recommended
Ayer's Sarsaparilla in many similsjcases,
and lie has never yet heard of its failure
to effect a radical cure.
Some years ago one of Mr. Lelaitd's farm
laborers bruised his leg. Oraig to the bad
state of his blood, an ugly scrofulous swelling
/iv lumn o r/*/1 /vn fho ininr??rl IfmK "Hor.
rio]e itching of the skin, with burning and
darting pair.s through the lump, made lifo
almost intolerable. The leg became enormously
enlarged, and running ulcers formed,
discharging great quantities of extremely
offensive matter. No treatment was of any
avail until the man, by Mr. Lelasd's direction,
was supplied with Ayee's Sabsapahill
a, which allayed the pain and irritation,
healed the sores, removed the swelling, and
completely restored the limb to use. *
Mr. Lelaxd has personally used
Ayer's Sarsaparilla
for Rheumatism, with entire success; and,
after careful observation, declares that, in
his belief, there i3 no mediciue in the world
equal to it for the cure or^Liver Disorders,
Gout, the effects of high living, Salt
Rheum, Sores, Eruptions, and all tho
-various forms of blood diseases.
"We have Mr. Lelaxd's permission to invito
all who may desire farther-evidence in regard
to the extraordinary curative powers of
Ayek'3 Sarsapakilla to see him personally
either at bis mammoth Ocean Hotel,
Long Branch, or at the popular Leland Hotel,
Broadway, 27th and 28th Streets, New York.
Mr. Iceland's extensive knowledge of tho
good done by this unequalled eradicator of
blood poisons enables him to give inquirers
much-valuable information.
