BUCKWHEAT FOR PROFIT.
How This Crop Ought to Be Cultivated
and Harvested.
It is a popular idea that buckwheat
may be easily grown and is profita
ble under careless methods of culture.
Henry Stewart, one of our most pro
gressive farmers, takes exception to this
opinion. Writing to The Country Gen
tleman he says: No other crop requires
better soil, better seed and more thor
ough culture than this for the best re
sults, and under poor culture it is no
more profitable than wheat or corn or
potatoes, either of which will give some
return under adverse circumstances if
the season be at all favorable. When
this crop is grown under as careful cul
ture as is given to oats it yields on an
average nearly twice as many bushels
per acre, and one-half more weight per
bushel. A sod is the best ground for it,
and thoroughly good harrowing before
and after seeding, with good plowing,
are all indispensable for a good yield.
This crop requires peculiar manage
ment in the harvesting. It cannot be
stacked or put in the barn, but must be
thrashed from the field and the grain
cleaned up from the chaff as soon as it
is thrashed. If thrashed with a machine
the concave should be taken out and re
placed with a smooth plank, which an
swers every purpose with this easily
thrashed grain, the pedicels or stems of
which are very weak and easily broken.
On this account the grain must be cut in
the early morning and late afternoon,
while the pedicles are moist and less
brittle; otherwise the loss of grain is
large. The grain lies in the swath a few
days, and when the straw is dry enough
it is raked and set up in loose gavels
which interlock by the branchy stems
sufficiently to hold together, and the
grain and straw dry better in this shape.
The hauling should be done on a dry,
windy day, and to save shelled grain
sheets should be spread on the wagon
rack. A dry, windy day should also be
chosen for the thrashing and also for the
grinding, for the flour made in damp
weather will not keep well. There is no
other grain so absorbent of moisture as
this, and consequently care is to be taken
all through to prevent the heating of it
under all conditions.
Mr. Stewart considers buckwheat
worth more than oats for feeding and
better than corn. When ground with
rye or oats it is the very best food for
sows with young pigs, and it makes ex
cellent and cheap pork from fattened
pigs. It is as good a food for sheep and
horses and mules and also for cows kept
for milk; the sole exception made is for
making butter, which is deficient in
flavor and color.
Tests of
-Mr
A Fair Agitator Who Is Attacking the
Customs of Centuries.
Kageama Hidde is probably the most re
markable woman in Japan. She is hardly
27 years old, of medium height and f&aJt-
less figure, and has great, soulful eyes that
are calculated to make all hearts of male
Japs palpitate violent responses to their
glances. The hearts of male Japs, how
ever, have little interest for Kageama
Hidde. She considers love and matrimony
to be matters of secondary importance in
her busy life, and values men above wom
en only as more powerful instruments in
the accomplishment of her one purpose,
the democratising of Japan, for Kageama
Hidde is a radical of the radicals, an agi
tator of agitators, a kind of Japanese
Louise Michel. She is the leader of the
radical party that is shaking the aged in
stltations of the mikado’s empire, ami
from her home in Osaka superintends the
organisation of her followers and the
spreading of the propaganda.
What do Kageama Hidde and her people
wish? How do they try to induce others
to wish the same? How do they intend to
get what they wish ? Kageama Hidde re
cently answered these questions with her
own pretty, painted Japanese lips.
“We desire no central government, but
self government. The organization of the
party is difficult. As we may not conduct
it openly, we conduct it in secrecy. Most
of our people are so far behind the tim£M
that we consider it best to proceed step by
step. The end of it all will be communism
or something of the kind. Of the radical
movement we know nothing, because our
papers are not allowed to print anything
about it. Our own views, too, may not be
printed here. As the law neglects to for
bid the reading of oar works, however, we
print abroad as many papers as our limited
means allow, bring them here, and dis
tribute them among the masses. We are
sorry for the Russian nihilists. Louise
Michel’s name Is familiar to us, but wc
know too little about her views to say
whether we Indorse them or not.
Most Japanese have very antiquated
ideas. Nevertheless we must labor with
them if we are to revolutionize our polit
ical system, and we most move forward
little by little. Thus we conducted our
agitation for a parliament, the advocacy of
which was once a penal offense. Now we
have the parliament we ask for more.
We are founding associations or groups
for the elevation of the masses and the
undermining of the aristocracy. We are
calling for a government by the people, in
which the lower classes will also partici
pate. We wish equal rights for all, and
we look for the supporters of this move
ment naturally among the working peo
ple. They must be won at any price. A
small part of the Japanese people is very
radical, bat only a small part. I am found;
ing schools in which women are educated
practically. Our party is called the Lib
erty party, and our organization is known
as the group system. The present system
of government is bound to be upset by us,
bat how soon I cannot say.”
Kageama Hidde is a schoolmistress by
profession. She has already been punished
by imprisonment for expressing her radi
cal opinions. She is worshiped by the
mass of people among whom she elec
tioneers, not only for her kindness and
cleverness but also for her hnmllity and
simplicity of dress. Her hair Is combed
straight from her forehead, and lies in a
plain twist on the back of her head. Her
underskirt is of unadorned dark silk, her
overskirt is of unadorned silk of a slightly
lighter shade, and the cloth on her head is
unembroidered and white.— New York

Uncle George Has His Innings.
A large number of persons and
many newspapers of this State were
a few 3’ears ago bitter in their denun
ciations of Uncle George Tillman be
cause be opposed some measures and
men then very popular and favored
by the then “dominant element.”
Time has brought its revenge, as us
ual. The same persons and newspa
pers who assailed Uncle George so
savagely are looking to him now as
a deliverer. The same steady, fear
less qualities that made him go
against the powers that were stay
with him now when lie is battling
against what looks to be the strong
and popular side.
An independent, plain speaking,
hard hitting, (earless man may be un
comfortable sometimes when he is
against us, but he comes in mighty
well in an emergency.
We observe that a good many gen
tlemen who used to regard Uncle
Geoige as nearly out sidethe party
pale and describe him in terms very
far from complimentary are carefully
keeping out of the hard aud doubtful
fight now being fought in this State.
Uncle George, W. L. Mauldin and
Senator Butler seem to he having their
side of the struggle to themselves so
far as work on the stump goes. We
hope that when this sub-treasury
scheme has been beaten and forsaken
and the people look back upon it as a
disordered dream, there will be re
membrance of the fact that it was a
real and pressing danger aud that in
Soutli Carolina the three men we
have named were foremost in stand
ing out to fight it.—Greenville News.
