JOHN 23. PEOPLES & CO. .31 Which is King-Grass or Com2 This question ia just now revived in our mind by a lettter from an esteemed subscriber, in which he uses the expres? sion, "Grass is king." Located, as he is, in the heart of the tobacco belt of Vir? ginia, we at first were somewhat startled by Buch a bold and progressive utterance. For a long time in that locality, and possibly it is true with most farmers, tobacco was the ruling agricultural sov? ereign, whilst grass, in the shape of clover, on a few small lots, was, and is now, made to pay homage to its king. Looking, however, over the whole of our great country, and viewing the sub? ject in all its aspects, it will be seen that our friend is right, and that farmers who acknowledge the fact and practice on it, will profit by it. Grass clothes, the fields with verdure, affords grazing "to the cat? tle on a thousand hills/' makes the hay for their winter food, whilst they in turn digest it, and return it back to the land for its improvement; its sod, in decay, yields the vegetable matter which feeds the crops; its roots sink deep and bring to the surface mineral substances of value to plant growth, and its blades absorb the nitrogen and carbon of the atmosphere to promote and sustain their own growth, then turn them over to the seil'for crops which are to follow. It will be instructive to look at the money value of the leading farm crops as given in the last published annual report of the United States* department of agri? culture :' Corn,.$635,674,610 Wheat,. 275,820,390 Barley,. 32,867,696 Oats,.;. 179,681,860 Rye,. 12,594,820 Cotton,..'.. 269,889,812 Tobacco,. 43,265,598 Potatoes. 78,173,403 Hay,. 389,752,873 It will.be admitted, we think, that the value of grass for pasturage, and in other ways mentioned, is fully as much as its commercial value in hay, so that by doubling the last figures in the table, we have the sum of ?779,505,756, or a total annual value above corn of $143,831,126. Which, then, is king ? A great agricul? tural truth is laconically asserted in the adage, "Without grass, no cattle; with? out cattle, no manure, no crops." Spring time has now arrived, and with it farmers should sow as much grass seed as possible. To this end, wheat fields should -have attention. If the land has been packed by winter rains,', run over the wheat a sharp, two-horse harrow, following up the harrowing closely by sowing one gallon and a half of clover seed and one peck of timothy, or a bushel and a half of orchard grass on each acre. The harrow does not injure the wheat, but will make a good seed-bed for the grass seeds, which will be. sufficiently covered by the first gentle rain.. If the land is light and puffy, sow the grass seeds, and follow with an iron field roller, which will greatly benefit, and at the same time sufficiently. cover the seeds. Ab a general rule, either of these operations is best done in our State about the middle of March, and propor? tionately sooner, farther south, this being the time winter freezings are over, and the wheat is ready to commence its spring growth. _ The best catch, of grass h frequently secured by sowing with spring oats. After the oats have been sown, and neatly harrowed in, sow the grass seeds on the fresh lands, and lightly brush them in, or depend for a covering by the first rain. Grass will take best if the oats are sown only moderately thick ?say,, not more than fire pecks to the acre; and according to our general theory of seeding, the crop of oats will not be lessened thereby, but may be increased. As soon as the wheat and oats are reaped, and while Btill in shocks on the fields, the young grass will be greatly benefitted by sowing broad cast on each acre a bushel and a half of plaster, and if the farmer can afford it, 200 pounds of soluble phosphate, but by all means the piaster. No permanent improvement of our 1 southern lands will take place until farmers become fully sensible of the fact that there must be a proper system of rotation of crops, in which grass shall have a fixed and prominent position.? Southern Planter. A Happy Couple. A married and experienced friend tells us that a man should always be a little bigger than his wife, and a little older, a little stronger, and a little bit ? more in love with her tban she is with him. A woman should always be a little younger, and a little prettier, and a little more considerate than her husband. He should bestow upon her all his worldly goods, and she should take care of them. He may owe her every care and tender? ness that affection may prompt; but pecuniary indebtedness to her will become a burden. Better live on a crust that he earns tban a fortune that she has brought him. Neither must be jealous or give the other cause for jealousy. Neither must encourage sentimental friendships with the opposite Bex. Perfect confidence in each other, and reticence concerning their mutual affairs, even to members of | their own families, is a first necessity. A wife should dress herself becomingly whenever she expects to meet her hus? band's eye. The man should not grow slovenly even at home. . Fault-finding, long arguments, or scoldings, end the happiness that begins in kisses and love-making. Sisters and brothers may quarrel and "make it up." Lovers are lovers no longer after such disturbances occur, and married people who are not lovers are bound by red-hot chains. If a man admires his wife most in striped calico, she is silly not to wear it. ? A candle has recently been brought out which extinguishes itself after it has burnt for an hour. This it does by means of a tiny extinguisher of tin which is fastened in wax by wires, and which effectually performs its task. It is only necessary to remove this dimimutive extinguisher when its work is done; and the candle is again ready to burn another hour. The use of such a candle in schools and nurseries particularly, could hardly fail to prove beneficial. Eucklen's Arnica Salve.

"I killed a buzzard this raornirjg," re? marked an old engineer of the Georgia road to a reporter the other afternoon. "Bather strange game to be hunting with a locomotive. How did it happen ?" "A dog or something had been killed the day before, and the buzzard was so, interested in the carcass that he didn't take any notice of me until I got right upon him, and he was knocked into the ditch. I hit him a pretty hard lick and I guess it killed him." "Isn't it an unusual occurrence to run over birds and the like ?" ho asked "Oh, no, not at all; we frequently kill partridges, doves, and sparrows without number. Sometimes a whole bevy of chickens are ground up at a time. Although all kinds of poultry are run over from time to time, 1 believe guineas are smartest in getting out of the way. When a flock of them is encountered on a track they usually sfrike out in a run directly ahead of you, sticking to the track until you get right upon them, and then dart off to one side. If one gets off the rest follows. I never knew it to fail. If you get one of them you get the whole flock." "How is it with other animals? I guess you have run over nearly every kind in your time ?" "Yes, I reckon I have," said the engi? neer thoughtfully, a shadow passing over his kindly face as be finished the sentence. "I suppose I have run over nearly every? thing, from a man down to a toad. "One day I was running at a high speed, considerably behind time. ?Tust as I turned a curve, a colored man seated on a load of wood and driving a mule was crossing the track ahead of me. Al? though he had ample time to get over, I involuntarily shut off the steam and threw on the brakes. It was too late, however. The poor fellow became fright? ened and struck his mule a blow with a switch, and the stubborn animal came to a dead stop right in his tracks. The man was paralyzed with fear and unable to move. The next instant I struck the wagon and knocked it into a thousand pieces, carrying. the unfortunate man more than thirty yards before I could stop. Tbe mule plodded on the road as unconcernedly as though he were still attached to his load and nothing had happened. "But, speaking of animals," continued the engineer, "sheep seem to have less sense tban anything else. If a- flock of them should happen to be grazing near the track when a train comes along, and they don't manage to get in tbe way of it, it wouldn't be their fault. I have killed as many as a dozen at a time. We don't kill many nowadays, though, be? cause there are very few in the country. "Goats are just the opposite. I have never killed more than one or two. They are smart enough to get out of the way from tbe time they are two days old. Let one be in the way of an approaching engine, and when he wants to get off the track that is just what hie does, and with? out any foolishness, either. If he should happen to be in a cut he starts right up the bank, and gets there, too. "While running a freight one night I ran into a drove of about a dozen horses. It was quite dark, and I could see them only when I would get close upon them. With their characteristic stupidity under such circumstances the frightened ani? mals made straight ahead of me at the top of their speed. I suppose I ran them in this way for several miles, some? times stopping entirely to let them get out of the way, but whenever I reached a descending grade I would be upon them again. At last they were caught and two of them killed before the rest got off the track. "A good-many hogs and cattle are also killed on the track. Of course, these all have to be paid for, and there is some? thing remarkable in the fact that only Jerseys, Berkshires and the like are so unfortunate as to get in tbe way. When? ever a cow does get off the track and out of danger we have no reason to feel gratified, because we know she is only a scrub and of no value any way.?Atlanta Constitution. How Girls can Make Themselves Agreeable* Little girls who wish to bo agreeable most remember that as a rule it is ill-bred to act in a sullen or churlish manner, to say spiteful things, to ridicule tbe aged or deformed, to talk and laugh so loudly as to attract notice in public, to be petulan^ to find fault with a gift, and to complain about the weather or anything else una? voidable that happens to be particularly disagreeable. ? Girls try always to be natural, to forget self, to be gracious towards every* one, to cultivate an amiable disposition, and try to add to the happiness of others. If possible learn to walk in an easy and graceful manner without mincing or tak? ing steps too long. Learn to use your hands, and do not sit in company with your arms tightly folded, as though they were nr?f. intended for present use. Conversation requires gestures at times. If asked- to sing or play, comply at once, if it is in your power to do so. Be scrupulously neat in dress, and see that your room is always in order. And all such disagree? able habits as picking the nose, ears, or teeth in company, biting or trimming the nails, yawning and appearing bored when any one?particularly an old person?is speaking. Never interrupt any one be? cause he is telling you a tiresome story, You can bear tbe infliction much better than he can endure the wound bis vanity will receive. Always acknowledge an ac? quaintance if worthy of your respect, no matter where he is, or however shabby bis clothes may be. Tbe young girl or boy who has a polite bow, a smile and a pleasant word for every onr, will be blessed with many friends. Above all, learn to be true hearted and bincere. A silly, fickle minded person, with no opinion and principles worth defending or retaining is at best a worthless member of society, and one who will never have much influence for good. He may attain the mere outward polishing of manner, but his mind and soul will never shine. Such politeness may make a fop or "dude" or a "dudine;" but it will never make a true gentleman or lady. Will not our young readers strive to attain the courtsey that begins at the heart's core and not at the lips? It is worth trying.?American Agriculturist. Syrup of Figs Is' Nature's own true laxative.

For sale by Simpson Reid, & Co. A Talk About Tobacco. Mr. G. A. Follin, formerly of Charles? ton but now of the firm of Lockett, Vaughn & Co., tobacco manufacturers of Winston, N. C., is on a visit of a few days to his native city. Mr. Follin has spent almost a lifetime in the tobacco business, and probably knows as much about the weed as any man of bis age. He gave a talk about tobacco to a re? porter for the Newt and Courier yester? day which will doubtless interest tho3eof the readers of the News and Courier who have a present or prospective interest in the future crop of South Carolina. Mr. Follin's firm, 6f which, it may be mentioned in passiDg, he is the "Co," is engaged in the manufacture of plug tobacco. Winston, said Mr. Follin, is a compar? atively new town and is the outcome of the growth of the tobacco interest within the past twelve or fifteen years. It is now one of the largest tobacco manufac? turing centres in the South. It has a splendid climate and is situated in the midst of a rich tobacco-growing country. The population is about 10,000 and there are between thirty and forty tobacco manufactories in the town. Property is valuable and "the Winston .boom" is described as being of the solid, iron bound, come-to stay kind. "There can be no doubt," said Mr. Follin?replying to a suggestion from his interviewer about South Carolina tobacco ?"there can be no doubt that tobacco can be profitably cultivated in South Carolina; but it cannot be done in the twinkling of an eye. The soil required for raising al kinds of tobacco is in abundance all over the State. But the raising of tobacco is by no means the most essential part of tobacco culture. It is the handling and curing of it that gives the plant its value, and the knowl? edge of tbiB cannot be acquired in a day or a month or in a year. If a planter raises a hundred bales of cotton, his work is not finished. Wbat would be the value of the cotton if he did not understand the process of ginning and baling it? So that when a man baa brought his crop of tobacco to maturity his work has just commenced. It is the curing and handling of the leaves that gives tobacco its true value. "I have seen near Winston two tobacco farms. They adjoined each other and were farmed by different men. The owners used the same seed and the con? ditions of cultivation were identical. The Boil was the same and when the plants were ready for stripping, an expert could not detect any material dif? ference-between the two crops as to size, body, texture and cleanliness. And yet the crop of one man brought 50 cents while that of the other brought only 10 cents a pound. This was on account of the curing. ' "The start given to tobacco culture in South Carolina was a start in the right direction, but people must not expect to start right in and make a success of it the first year. There are several things that are essential to profitable tobacco culture. The first of these is to learn how to cure it. Now, there wa3 Mr. F. M. Bogers, Jr., of Darlington, who pub? lished a statement of his crop in the Neves and Courier, or in the weekly News and Courier, I forget which. Mr. Bogers, I am told, got an expert from North Car? olina to cure bis crop, and, therefore, he found it a profitable crop. As soon as the farmers of this State acquire the art of curing their tobacco they will find it a profitable crop. "Then there is another consideration. Where will they market it ? It is neces? sary to have a borne market, as far as the tobacco grower is concerned. A tobacco grower in lower or middle South Carolina can't expect to compete with one in North Carolina who has one hundred or more factories within twenty-five miles of bis farm. There must be a margin for freight, &c. It is like the cotton ques? tion. For years cotton farmers of the South bad to send their cotton to the Northern and Eastern mills. Cotton culture bad achieved its highest point when the Southern mills were establish? ed, and now we have a market at home. So with tobacco. Our firm has been asked if we would establish a manufac? tory at Columbia or Charleston. Mani? festly the first requisite for the establish? ment of a tobacco factory is to have the material at band. And I may say that just as Boon as the cultivation and curing of. tobacco shall have reached such a point that enough tobacco is grown to furnish the raw material, tobacco facto: ries will soon Bpring up in all parts of the State. "In the meantime?those that are in earnest about the raising of tobacco should continue. They must learn the art of curing, and I should think that this could be accomplished at a compar? atively -trifling cost to the producer, The State Agricultural Department could manage - it very well, I should think, by means of the experimental sta? tions. They should not only grow tobacco at these stations, but they should secure the services of a number of expert tobacco-curers, and, if necessary, send these around to any farmer who has a crop of tobacco and instruct him in tho art of curiog his crop. "If this is not practicable?and I don't see why it is not?a number of farmers in a certain locality might plant each a certain acreage in tobacco and then com? bine and send for an expert who could teach them the drying process. The expense to each would be comparatively light. "The tobacco so raised can very readily find a market, although it would per? haps not bring as high a price as the North Carolina tobacco, because of the added cost of transportation. But as soon as the quantity of good tobacco raised in the State assumed proportions that would warrant it, tobacco factories would be established, and a home market created."?News and Courier. Home Love and Sympathy. The years of childhood and boyhood are, as it were, a sort of prophetic recital of the years of manhood. They consti? tute the little stage on which, with puny powers, we unconsciously reherse the scenes of after life. The boy has in him the seeds of good and the seeds of evil; which will prove the stronger? No one can tell. But to a large extent it depends upon the effects of love and sympathy at home. The presence of these may call into life the best growths of the soul, and the absence of them may I raise up the noxious miasm as that poi? son the whole human heart. The First Symptoms Of all Lung diseases are much tho same: fovcrishncss, loss of appetite, soro throat, pains in tho chest and back, headache, etc. In a few daj-s you may bo well, or, on tho other hand, you may bo down with Pneumonia or " galloping Consumption."

Wbat is this Disease that is Coming Upon Us? - ? like a thief at night it steals fn upon us unawares. The pa? tients have pains about the chest and sides, and sometimes in the back They feel dull and sleepy; the mouth has a ?bad taste, especially in the morning. A sort of sticky slime collect* about the teeth. The appetite is poor; There is a feeling like a heavy load on the stomach; sometimes a faint, all gone sensation at the pit of the stomach which food does not satisfy. The eyes are sunken, the hands and feet become cold and clammy. After a while a cough sets in, at first dry, but after a few months it is attend? ed with a greenish-colored ex? pectoration. The patient feels tired all the while, and sleep does not seem to afford any rest After a time he becomes nervous, irritable and gloomy, and has evil forebodings. There is a giddiness, a sort of whirl? ing sensation in the head when rising up suddenly. The bow? els become costive; the skin is dry and hot at times; the blood becomes thick and stagnant; the whites of the eyes become tinged with yellow; the urine is scanty and high colored, de? positing a sediment after stand? ing. There is frequently a spitting up of the food, some tunes with a sour taste and sometimes with a sweetish taste; this is frequently at? tended with palpitation of the heart; the vision becomes im? paired, with spots before the ayes; there is a feeling of great prostration and weakness. All of these symptoms are in turn present. It is thought that ' nearly one-third of our popu? lation has this disease in seme of its varied f ormS; It has been found that phy? sicians have mistaken the cause * of this disease. Some have treated it for a liver complaint, others for kidney disease, etc., etc., but none of these kinds of treatment have been attended with success; for it is really constipation and dyspepsia. It is also fo?nd that Shaker Ex-" tract of Roots, or Mother Sei gel's Curative Syrup, when properly prepared will remove this disease in all its stages. Care must be taken, however, to secure the genuine article, IT WILL SELL .BETTER THAN COTTON. Mr. John C. Hemptinstall, of Chulafirmee, Cleburn Co., Ala., writes: "My wife has been so -much benefited by Shaker Extract of Roots or SeigeVs Syrup that she says she would rather be without part of her food than without the medicine.
