AIKEN, S. C. t OCT. 16. 1891. GRASS AS A FARM CFOP. Its Importance in the Farm notation Fully Set Forth. The valne of grass as a farm crop ought not to be wholly estimated from its use as a fodder plant for grazing or hating, says the agricultural editor of the New York World. Primarily it is chiefly valued as furnishing animal food, and from the ease with which it may be grown with a minimum amount of cul tivation it is well worthy of all the at tention and care that can be bestowed upon it in the selection of varieties and study of their adaptability to the dif ferent climates and varying soils. One of the advantages of a grass crop is the large proportion always gathered by animals themselves, without the inter vention of harvesting labor and harvest ing machinery. Another is that the harvesting and storing away of a portion as hay is a process that insures its pres ervation in the best form at a small cost and with the least amount of loss. Pasture and hay grasses and clovers should therefore not only be leading farm crops, but special care should be taken to grow them on land where, from the peculiar nature of the soil, they can be made the most profitable crops such soils can produce. It will readily -occur to any farmer that rough and hilly lands of small acreage value are to be pre ferred for pasturage to rich, arable soils: not because the latter would not yield the most grass, but because the grass' the former may be made to yield will be almost clear gain, and the richer land can also be put to a more profitable use than pasturage. Notwith standing all that has been said in favor of feeding soiling crops raised on rich lands, in lieu of pasturage, the fact still remains that our animals are chiefly raised and brought to maturity on pas turage, and that most farms, whether large or small, have poidions better adapted to grass than to grains and veg etables. Again, grass is an improver and notan impoverisher of soils, and for this reason, in connection with its intrinsic value as animal food, should enter into farm cul tivation far more extensively than it does. If the wornout lands of the country, wherever they may be, are ever again to be classed as having any con siderable value, the renovating agent must be grass. A few years of intelli gent and systematic cultivation of the grasses best adapted to them, along with the raising of sheep, it is believed would again restore to usefulness arl make salable many farms now looked upon as having little or no value. Experiments in Fig Feeding. It is well known that cora is the chief fattening food for pigs in a large part of the United States. Experiments which were made during three yfears are report ed in full by the Illinois station, showing the feeding value for pigs of corn, of corn arf^^s, of grass alone, the compara- of soaked and dry corn, the value of ^Toppings from cattle and of apple poma.P® in feeding pigs. In eight trials in whicN^ n alon ' 3 was fed > from salt and var >' in S in weight from 65 to 290 pomauSt-.kept in pens or small lots without grass, ga^ at the rate of from 10.46 pounds to 14.73 pounds per bushel, the average gain be ing 12.36 pounds per bushel of shelled corn. The rate of gain for food eaten and the food eaten in proportion to weight decreased after four or six weeks' feeding with corn only. There seemed to be no constant relation between the weight of the pigs or the season of the year and the food eaten or the gains made. In four trials, pigs fed all they would eat of shelled corn, with blue grass pas ture, gained at the rate of 12.04 pounds per bushel of corn. Pigs under like con dition, except that they were fed but half as much corn, gained at the rate of 12.03 pounds per bushel. Pigs in dry lots fed shelled corn gained at the rate of 10.52 pounds per bushel. In no case did pigs make satisfactory gains after six or eight weeks’ feeding on corn alone. In two trials pigs fed soaked corn ate more and gained more than those fed on dry corn, but the difference was not great. Two pigs in a two acre pasture lot with three yearling steers were fed corn, and gained in twenty-four weeks 195 pounds. In a second trial under like conditions two pigs gained 231 pounds in thirty-one weeks; the gain in neither case being huge. A trial of apple pomace as food for pigs resulted unsatisfactorily; the pomace kept well, but the pigs ate but little of it. A short experiment made it so evident that it is unprofitable to confine pigs to a grass diet solely that further trials in that direction were not made. • - i ■ ■ ■ — Green Hone for Poultry. A subject much discussed among poultrymen at present is whether it is profitable to feed green bone. A Massa chusetts poultryman writing in Farm- Poultry expresses himself very emphat ically that it is. He says: “I selected a pen of 100 Brahma hens, procured a bone cutter and went to work. The re sult was, my number of eggs was in creased more than half, the 100 hens laying only a few short of 1,800 eggs dur ing the month of February, 1891, thus proving that the bone as an egg producer alone was invaluable. But in order to find whether the only advantage was in the increase of eggs I concluded to test the matter still further, and placed some of the eggs mentioned in an incubator directly beside others where no bone had been fed. The result there was equally as favorable. Many of the eggs where no bone had been fed proved infertile, while others started and died at all stages. But not so where the bone had done its work. Ninety per cent, of the eggs brought out strong chicks. 1 have tried green bone to my entire satisfac tion, and feel that I can recommend it to ethers.'* Bueklen's Arnica Salve.

Another Sub-Treasury Discussion The Farmers’ Alliance of Hampton County met on Friday and extended invitations to Congressman George D. Tillman, of the 2d South Carolina dis trict, and to Congressman Watson, «f the 10th Georgia district, to visit Hampton at some near day in the fu ture, the time to be decided on bv the honorable gentlemen, to discuss the sub-treasury bill in joint debate. Congressman Tillman is opposed to the sub-treasury scheme, while Con gressman Watson is a strong advocate of the measure. It is said that Con gressman Tillman is anxious to dis cuss the sub-treasury with Watson, and will, it is expected, accept the in vitation of the Hampton Alliance. If the invitation is accepted by both parties a lively discussion may be ex pected. Government Bands in the South. Manufacturers Record. Commissioner Carter has made his official report on the operations of the geueral land office during the last fiscal year. In the list of public lands at the disposition of his office are the following areas in the South. Acres. Alabama 947,310 Arkansas 4,998,398 Florida 3,468,381 Louisiana 1,243,118 Mississippi 1,201,280 Total 11,858,489 Here are a total of eleven and three quarter million acres of land belong ing to the people of the United States all of which are open to purchase at goverriment rates, and many of which are covered with valuable limber or are susceptible of the highest cultiva tion. A few weeks ago the country wit nessed the extraordinary rush for lands in the two new counties of Ok lahoma. In that rush of homeseekers were several thousand Southern ne groes. According to all accounts that country is entirely unsuited to such settlers. They have been induced to go there because they have a strong desire to be land owners, and because self-created leaders of their color have for their own ambitious ends, wished to plant large colonies of their race there. That there is a class of philanthro pists who are working according to their best lights for the independ ence and the elevation of the South ern negroes, all must concede. Un fortunately for them, and for the race they would benefit, they have not yet learned to understand those in whos behalf they are honestly interests f, instead of encouragj eniiiVgmes sas or to Oklahoma, cise a wise liberality, purchase suita ble government lands in the Gulf States in large tracts, cut them up in to farms of suitable size and sell them on long time to those freedmeu whose thrift and industry w r ere a guarantee that they would eventually pay for them, no money would be wasted, much suffering and disappointment would he averted, and the object at which they professedly aim would be accomplished. The South as a whole would he benefitted by such a practical philanthropy, and would cordially support it from its inception. Xo Need for an Extra Session. Ex-Judge J. J. Maher, who has in charge the recodification of the laws of South C irolina, was in Columbia on Saturday. He does not think that the work will be completed In time for the next Legislature. He has, however, made great nrogj^ss with the undertaking. One of the difficul ties ot the work is the proper classifi cations of the laws as they exist. Judge Maher is so arranging the parts and titles that the subject and matter will be homogeneous. It is not at all likely that there w ill he an extra session, or that the regular ses sion of the Legislature will be extend ed to have the new code read.

How d<i snakes climb? is a ques tion whicl\ has been frequently asked. Many havW thought that the accom plish the feibt by w rapping themselves ' about the trwe and following a spiral course upward. Several years ago, a story went tpe rounds of the papers to the efleefiffhat two wood-choppers, having fellled a large oak tree several feet in diaxneter and very tall, found iu its top iwo common black snakes. After pilndering lor some time the men arrived at the conclusion that one snaka bud taken hold of the oth er’s tail, and thus by co-operation they bad lieen enabled to clasp the trunk, au(i by circling about it had ascended to the top. Whatever probability may have at tached to this conclusion has recently been dispelled by the observation of two young (naturalists while hauling fire-wood from the forest. A black fiiake measuring, perhaps, a trifle ovef.” six feet was found cling ing to the side of a small tree, around which it c.>uld have wrapped itself nearly twic^e, had it wished to do so. Instead ofjthis the snake passed right and left atishort distance*, catching the folds aiding its under parts over and behiuifl the slightly projecting roughnesses of hark. As the snake rested only five or six A feet off' the! ground, one of the young men grasperi its tail, to test its climb ing qualities, but so great was the force with wJiich it pulled upward that it proveff a difficult task to hold it. Finally, becoming annoyed at this ill treatment, ttie snake reached down threatening at the offencing hand, and hising its hold fell to the ground. It kvas borne home in tri umph, but V 119 afterwurd returned uninjured to/the f.nest. Catarrh is'.ui the blood.

In most diseases, cure depends upon the promptness with which remedies are administered. If the remedy be taken when symptoms of disease first mani fest themselves and before the normal strength of the body is greatly impaired, the complaint may often be checked and cured in the beginning, the sufferer thus escaping sickness of perhaps a fatal character. This is especially true of com plaints to which the young are liable. First symptoms are often neglected, simply because no effective remedy happens to be at hand, and it is not until the disease has gained consider able headway that means are taken to arrest its course. Alas, how frequently these means prove too late! Every household, therefore — and, for that matter, every individual — should he provided with a few simple remedies for the common complaints to which all are exposed. As no complaints are more common than those of the throat und lungs, a safe and efficacious ano- iyue should always be within reach. We have been impelled to make these cautionary remarks by happening to notice in a recent paper the case of a child w'ho would, undoubtedly, have died of croup had there not been in the house part of a bottle of Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral. The following incident re lated by the father of the little one, should certainly impress every parent with the necessity of being forearmed for a similar emergency: — “ One of my children had croup. The case was attended by our physician, and was supposed to be well under con trol. One night I was startled hy the child’s hard breathing, and on going to his bedside found him strangling. He had nearly ceased to breathe. Realiz ing that the child’s alarming condition had become possible in spite of the med icines already administered, I reasoned that such remedies would be of no avail. Having part of a bottle of Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral in the house, I gave the child three doses, at short intervals, and anxiously waited results. From the moment the Pectoral was given, the child’s breathing grew easier, and in a short time he was sleeping quietly anil breathing naturally. The child is alive and well to-day, and I do not hesitate to say that Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral saved his life.” AIKEN INSTITUTE. rpHE exercises of the above school JL will begin on the 14th day of September next, und will continue tor forty weeks.
