A prominent truck farmer of Soutb Carolina coast gives the following directions for the cultivation of cabbage for market: Lands should be plowed deep, harrowed and marked out in rows two and a half feet apart. A very necessary precaution is to thoroughly ditch the land so that at no time water will stand on it. A HKorol onnlinofinn nf fflrfillTDr 1Q necessary, Bay fifteen hundred pounds to tbe acre. This fertilizer should consist of a high grade fertilizer, analyzing 8 per cent ammonia, 7 per cent phosphoric acid and 5 percent, potash. It is applied in the marks laid off for the rows and a scooter or bulltongue plow run through it, so as to thoroughly mix it with the soil. Two furrows are . > then thrown together to make a medium sized bed, which is then rolled, to firm the ground, and plants set out on the rows eighteen to twenty inches apart As soon as the, plants are started growing, the field is harrowed with an ironage harrow and dressing of five hundred pounds of fertilizer to the acre is applied in every other row, followed with a subsoil or some other plow which will thoroughly break the feeds until you can see the cracks extending acrossthe same. In about ten days tbe other furrow is treated in exactly the same way. After that the land is kept open by constant work using a piow, narrow, cultivator or some use tool that will not break the soil deeper than two inches. Cultivation should occurjevery week or ten days until the cabbage are headed, or tbe foliage completely covers the ground. Under ordinary oondition crops worked in this way yield an average of one hundred crates of cabbage per acre. ^ m NATURAL HISTORY. gfc? . pfiift-* - w Thlncri Abont Animal* That Fverv body 8honld Be Posted On. The lion is called the king of beasts because be can roar louder and do more bluffing than any other beast with a tail seven feet long. It is believed that a lion who keeps his feet warm, gets to bed at 9 o 'clock and lets champagne alone, may live to reach the age of fifty, but there is nothing certain about it. Until a few years ago, it was supposed his roar came from his throat, and was caused by an attack of bronchitis, but now it has been definitely settled that he carries a calliope, a base drum and a fog horn attached to his royal person to produce the sounds. A lion is a good deal like a prizefighter. He may put up a terrific scrap and astonish everybody, or he may sell out for $25 and lay down to a hyena. An eminent citizen going home at midnight with a jag on would, perhaps' be in less danger if meeting a mule, but this statement should not discourage anyone frnm iatrcinc when he feels like it. Take it all in all, the lion does as well as he can when living, and when dead his skin makes a beautiful rug for the hired girl to trip up on when spread on the library floor. The tiger has never been given a highsounding title. He is simply what he is, and he does the best he can with the capital invested. How and then a tiger has been known to roar, but, as a rule, he keeps his mouth shut and goes in for meat instead of wind. His appetite is his only sorrow. To appease that he is obliged to hunt around for about 100 pounds of freph meat daily, and if he can't come across ? I ifi.v. c :Jjr V. r-:* ' , a cow or an ox he lias to take up witl a Hindoo or an Englishman and picl the bones a lifetle cleaner. If he coul( . only get rid of that appetite, or orde canned beef direct from Chicago, hi: life would be a happy one. His strength and aguity are saia r< 1 be marvellous. He could carry off tin ! fattest woman in Charleston as eas^ as a man could saunter away with : 1 strawberry shortcake, and a profess ional baseball twister might stand anc throw turnips at him all day long ant never come within a rod of him. I is recorded that the tiger never lets gi of his prey wheu he once has hisclaw: on it. This shows him to be a beas with good seuse. Anything or any body that lets go of a good thing whet ho has got the dead-wood on it is lack ing in hair on the top of the head. No one knows to what age a tigei lives. If constantly hunted by Nev York sportsmen, he probably dies o disgust at the age of one hundrec years. The elephant is the largest anima on legs, aud if Nature had knowu hei business she would have given him si: instead of four, and provided him witL a dynamite torpedo at the end of hi: tail. The great beast is like a red headed boy from the country wh< walks three miles in the morniug t< attend a village school. Everybody picks on him and calls him names, an< he would rather get his back up, how ever, things have to hum. In his wi)< state the elephant has nothing to d( but wander through the forest dell and stuff his hide with the best tb< lands affords. In a stale of captivity he is hauled abont by an iron hook fastened into his ear, and made to worl twelvehours per day,union or no union He is also sworn at aud made to step lively, and we cannot blame him if ht now aud then weeps sad tears and sighs over what a good thing he has lost An elephant will use his trunk to lift i sticfc of timber which forty trampi would stand with their hands in pock ets and look at for five or six hours and then turn away from as too heavj for their spinal complaints. When not in hunger the gigantii beast is as docile as a red-headed coot in the kitchen with only green wooc to get dinner with, but when driver to anger .by some one singing, "Ii the Dear Old Summer Time" into hii ear, he pulls up sewers by the root aud tramples baby carriages into th< dust. The elephant has many enemiei besides man, and be never gets ove: two hours' sleep at a time for thinking of them, but he probably gets along a: well as if he had been born a crow ort buzzard. Now and then a seesaw man going home from his club at t late hour has bumped up against ai elephant and got away again, but, ai a rule, it is far safer to try to pick uj a mule's hind foot. It is on record that an elephant ha lived to the age of 230 years, but tba was before doctors and undertaker ^ ' -?- mi oecame SO WICK. mey pivuuuijf JW? along to the age of about 150, and tnei get tired of trying to find out wha Ben Tillman is going to do, and dare out. Natural history says that the whal< is neither a fish nor an animal. Th< only way to locate him then, is to de scribe him as a Chicago beef-packin| house with a tail bolted on. It goei without saying that he is of the sea He has been boss ever since there wai salt water to swim tn, and at this lat day it would be useless to argue hin into playing second fiddle. The only job given the whale whei nature turned him out was to go swim ming ana proviae mmseir wuu une square meal per day, and he i9 stil working the same old racket. As t< the size of a full-grown mammal, i fourteen large elephants were to swal low twentyeight politicians and then get frozen together, head-to-tail, th bulk would be no greater than the It. As a rule, he loafs around, but wher he starts to go anywhere he is in a hur ry and strikes a gait of thirty miles ai hour. If he is after the family docto he runs up to sixty, and dosen't los< his breath over it. If Mr. Ansel or Governor Heyward were on a raft .in mid-ocean, and i whale going at the rate of sixty mile an hour should strike it, the friends o those emiuent and well known gentle men would never hear of them more Left to pursue hib own way and slosl around as he pleases, the whale is no looking for a scrap and spends a goot deal of his time in philosophy. Le some Uncle Reuben from Spartanburg sticks a harpoon into him, however, o some tramp steamship tread on hit tail, and the insulted mouster start out in a whirlwind of fury and wreck three or four orphan asylums before hi cools down. No matter if you have paid $150 fo a stateroom on board an ocean line and have a seat at the captain's tabl and are a winner at poker in th< smoking room, a whale could destroy the steamer with one blow of his tal and make it lonely for you if he wished to. The great mammal is supposed t< live at least five hundred years, but n< one can be sure of this. He is liable t( bang bis head against a rock any day and it is known that now and then when he gets too fresh, the other in habitants of the deep gather in conven tion and make it so hot for him tba he goes into a decline and his dea< body comes ashore at Georgetown.

A bald headed man can't lose anything by trying a new patent hair restorer. ? People may not think you a fool, yet they may not be in a position to deny it. A chauffeur is a man who runs down pedestrains and runs up repair bills. I It's an awful handicap for a girl to have a younger sister who is a real beauty. It's a pity that a miser who has money to burn can't take it with him when he dies. During leap year every eligible young man should be equipped with a chaperon. j A bachelor is known by the company , he keeps and a married man by the clothes his wife wears. The average man's idea of business transaction is one in which he gets the best of the bargain. When you see a boy with curls it's a safe bet that his father isn't the whole thing around the house.

It is not necesary to run the ad next to reading natter, and to attract tne eye from he news features or literary articles >y forcible catch lines and seductive lisplay, to have them read the adverising columns. Mauy are more interested in adverising matter than they are in any tther feature that appears in the perodicals that come into their bands. All advertisers cannot; of course, tftord to ignore the matter of position, it is desirable for a general adveriser, who is usiDg comparatively small pace, that his advertisement should ippear next readiog matter.

The editorial page, in newspapers is sonsidered one of the most important, iut let me tell you that the average :ditorial page is not read by so many jeople, nor is it given such a clo?e eading as are the large ads of the big lepartment stores. People take more nterest in their personal affairs than bey do in Panama, and it is an imjortant matter to them that they ibould learn where they can spend heir money so as to get the most /alue for it. That is the aim of the jood retail advertisers to tell what .hey have to sell, and to tell it in iimh on alliirincr wav aa to nnnvinn.p jeople that their store is thebe9t place n which to spend their money. Did you ever watch a person who lad purchased a magazine: Do so?ten ;o one, he will look through the advertising pages before he begins to read ;he literary matter. In a marjority )f instances, it will be found that he will look over the advertising, even jefore he looks at the pictures in the iterary portions of the magazine. \merlcaus are interested in advertiiing matter?there is no doubt of bat?they will read your advertising, f it is made interesting enough to be eadable. If the article offered is a meritorious >ne, nnd its merits are convincingly let forth, advertising will sell the joods. People are seeking a place to ipend their money, aud will spend it with that merchaut and manufacturer who gives them the best reasons why bey should spend it for their goods.

An advertiser cannot expect to sell lutomobiles to this class of trade, but my article used on the farm, any modirate priced necessity or luxury can be iold to these people if the right method md literature are used. When going after these people, the idvertiser should adopt a more per lotml tone ; he should tell bis story nore at leugth. Since be expect these aeople to order without seeing the roods, be must be explicit, and give ill necessary details. These people 3ave the time to read, to consider, the natter, to talk it over.

The strength required of an average ted team of horses, and the strain od ie horses to draw a heavy load over ones or out of a deep rut, hole, or :er many other avoidable obstacles, often greater than to draw the same ad over a smooth surface flfty yards. It would be small estimate to say a ireless driver strains bin team in that anner twenty times a day. If a driver prevents stJaining his arses twenty times each day he will ive them 1000 yards of unnecessary tilling, and in the 300 working days I the year 300,000 yards, aud in five ears 1,500,000 yards,?yearly 1000 liles. With proper judgment and care llness the driver, at the end of the ve years, will have, in place of a team f weak, overworked, bony horses, a iam of healthy and strong ones. From a business point of view will not pay any horse owner, or driver r teamster to be careful and considerte, and to avoid all unnecessary ;rains onlborses ? And how can humane horse owners etteraid in making their drivers carell and considerate than by supplying lem each montb with a copy of our lonthly paper?--Our Dumb Animals.
