KILLED AT THE F?BD* He ia dead, the beautiful youth, . The heart of honor, the. soul of truth, He, tim life and light of us all, Whose vcico was blithe os a bugle call, Whom all eyes followed with one consent The cheer qf whose laugh and who* pleasant word, ?Hushed all murmurs of discontent. Only last night, as we rode along Dowu the dark of the mountain gap, To visit the picket guard at the ford, Little dreaming of any mishap, He was huming the words of some ole song: 'T*o red roses he had on his cap, And another be bore at the point of hit sword." Sadden and swift a whistling ball Came out of the wood, and the void* waa still ; Something I heard in the darkness fall, And for a moment my blood grew still ; I spoke in a whisper, as he who speaks In a room where someone was lying dead: But he made no answer to what I said. We lifted him to his saddle again, And through the mire and the mist and . . the rain Carried him back to the silent camp, And laid b:ra as if asleep on his bed, And I saw'by the light of the surgeon's lamp Two white roses upon Lis cheeks, . And one just over bis heart, blood-red. And I saw in a vision how far and fl<3*t That fatal bullet went speeding forth Till it reached a town in the snnny South, Ti'l it reached a heart that ceased to beat Without a murmur, without a cry ; And a bdl was tolled in that far off town, "or one who had passed from cress to crown .nd the neighbors wondered that she should die. Bermuda Grass on New Ground. Editor* Southern Cultivator and Dixie Farmer : GENTLEMEN-Mr. A. B. F., Carroll county, asks if "Bermuda glass will thrive well on new ground." ? While his question is answered in the usually intelligent manner, I hope I will be pardoned for giving my experience in the matter in ques tion. Last spring I cleared anew ground and brote it once in the usual way, and in February ran rows off thre ? feet apart and dropped a email par cel of Bermuda grass turf, about ev ery three feet and covered it, and pressed it with the-foot in planting The grass rnsde a feeble growth in the spring, as it always does when planted, but ia mid summer it grew luxuriently and has covered the ground beautifully. I had the weeds cut oft the ground in August. My cattleJiad accees to it during sum mer, which was of great advantage as they kept the sprouts from the stumps closely budded, and the stumps on the ground are nearly all dead now on that account. I hive been setting Bermuda grass for five yea^fl^n differpnt Tfftri'ph'pdpf ?rp?"^ LS . and have never had such Tesulta on [ upland aa I have had from'my new . ground. I would suggest that as . many heaps of brueb and trash be burnt upon the ground as possible" and to plant the grass in February or early in March. I am glad to see the spirit manifested that there is, in growing grass, and what little expe rience I have is gladly given to the public for what it is worth. T. J. F. Ranthersville, DeKalb Co., Qa. How to Make Bee-Keeping a Suc cess. To make bee keeping successful the apiarist must have a simple movable frame hive of some kind, and for box honey the brood chamber should no! contain o/er 1400 cobie inches in?ide the frames. All practical apiarists know that to get the best return? from each colony, he must have them in the best possible condition at the time the first honey producing flowers begin to secrete nectar ; but how to get them in this condition is a problem that bothers most all bee keepers. I suppoee all know that bees gather honey, and that the eggs laid by the queen produce bees, con ?pquently the more eggs the queen lays the more bees we get, and the more bees we have the more honey they gather. Therefore if we wish good returns from our bees we must 'see to it that we have good prolific queens, and that they fill the combs n?th-hxoooV U?fora tkft lion ey seaton. commences, so that when the honey harvest cornea, the bees will be oblig ed to place the haney in the boxes. But, how shall we get the comba full of brood ? The plan I follow is : as soon as Spring opens, I examine each hive by liftirg cut the frames, and if the colony is weak the bees are shut to one side of the hive, by means of a division board, so as to keep the necessary heat for brood rearing on as many combs as they can cover. As soon as the queen has filled these combs with eggs I spread them apart, ineerting an empty comb between these occupied with brood, and in four or five days' time the queen will fill this one also. Thus it will be seen that instead of the queen laying her eggs on the outside of the cluster, she lays them in the center of the brood nest, where they should be. , After th? hive is full of brood and bees it does tot make so much difference, as the weather is warm and bees are plenty, so that the queen e?n deposit her eggs anywhere in the hive. As soon as the strongest stocks are full, take a frame of brood just .gnawing out and place it in the weak er oneB, giving the strong one an empty frame filled with comb foun dation, and the bees will soon draw it out for the queen to fill ngain; and so keep on until all are full. When this is accomplished put on boxen, j and if any honey is gathered it must 11 be pat in the boxes. Each box ehou * have a small piece of comb found tion attached to the top, as a start? * to get the bees to work, .more readi io them. If they do not start readi in the boxes, raise one of the brot combs and place it between two eas of boxes. As soon as the first box are filled they ehould be taken c ? before being colored by the bees pas 8 ing over them, and empty ones pi in their places ; thereby causing tl bees to work with renewed vigor I fill ap the vacant epace left whei the full ones were taken out. An thus keep taking out full ones an I putting empty ones in their places ? long as the honey season lasts. Thi in short, is the way I work my be? * to make them pay for their keeping. W.S. Caulhen, in Lancaster Ledge i Cotton Seed Mills. Au Oil Manufacturer's Views on th Value of Cottou Seed as aFertjlizer To the Editor of the News an Courier: In an article in your issu of the 10th ult., headed "Norma Value of Cotton Seed," a i extrae from the report of J. T. Henderson commissioner o? agriculture for thi State of Georgia, to the secretary o State, purports to give the rektiv< manorial values o? cotton seed an< cotton seed meal as determined b] analysis; also, the* rates at which thi .Winer should exchange his seed fo? meal or money, supposed to be de duced from his analyses. If hi; analyses be correct, (and, by compar. ison with others by distinguished chemists now before me, they appeal to bevas nearly so as could be expect ed, when we allow for the great dif ference in the quality of different seeds and meals, the difference in meals being expressed by a difference of five dollars in market value be tween the highest and lowest grades,) his deductions are manifestly incor rect. He gives the money value of cot ton seed, as shown by analyeis, to be worth $15 3?, pnd of meal $43.62, yet he advises the planter not to sell his seed for less than $12 per ton at his depot, though he can buy meal delivered on an average of $27 f>0 per ton. The planter Is advised abo to require 3,000 pounds of meal for fi ton of seed, or not exchange, when his own analysis shows that 637 pounds of meal, delivered, ia the equivalent o? a ton of crude Reed in nanurial value. And it must be remembered, too, hat though the above are relative values, as s?certained by analyses, ictnal experiments by intelligent llantera show that 200 pounds ol ?rime cotton seed meal will produce aore cotton than a ton of seed. Tue eason ie obvions. It is because the deal is in a much more available con dition for plant food than the crude eed, just as in the case of phosphate ock or bones ungroand, they con sic all the fertilizing qualities of the round article, ye?, no map in his senses wouftTTli???^' ol applying tnem a3 manure" without Grst grinding them. If the manurial properties of crude cotton seed which are not available for the crop to which it is first appli ed could be kept in the soil, and not wasted by raine or taken up in the atmosphere, then the relative practi cal values of meal and seed might bs expressed pretty nearly by their relati e values as shown by auai>ees, (say oue of moa! io three of Reed) but every farmer knows that thia cannot be done, air?, as a crude cotton eeed does not give up to the first crop more th?n oce-tbird of its manunal val ne, the remaining two third* ie subject to great waste before it can be made ..vai'able for rncceed>ng LTOpe.

Jo the Editor ot thc News and Mirier : The article in your issue of rebrnary 28, signed "Au Oil Manu acturer," has created some distrust n the part of farmers anticipating he erection of cotton seed oil mills n a small ecale in the country among he cotton plantations. The manu acturer cf machinery tells us that ch n four ton mill we can make 53 74 uet profit a day with oil at 0 rents per gallon and meal at #25 ton at the mill, 6eed costing us $10 er ton. The oil mannt"-.ctnrtr tells *. that the whole matter is ezagger ted and that we cannot realize more ian 32 cents per gallon for the oil, nd probably less than $20 per ton >r the cake. Now the difference is erv great between the two, and we irmers who are clubbing together to ut up oil mille in our section would e glad if these parties would say >mething more on the subject, and ot leave us in doubt ae to which ne is right.
