BILL AR Fi .A_rp ?Says Grass is G T?eurxi Atlunla Ca This is thc first bright genial sunny morning that wc have had in three weeks-for twenty-one days it lias rained every day save one. Thc crops are in a bad lix; the corn ami cotton are hidden by grass and weeds, and labor is scarce, for the negroes are wanted in the mines. Most of the wheat has been cut, but how much of it will be saved cannot yet be told. Within my recollection of lifty years I do not recall so much rain in harvest time. According to scripture, it .-ecms to be thc same old story, i'or Solomon sty-, "As rain in harvest so is honor unseemly in a fool." They had to?> much rain and too many fools then just ?ts we <lo now. Maybe Providence sends the rain to try the farmers to make them diligent ami shifty. 1 traveled on thc Hast and West rail road last week for sixty miles and 1 noted some farms that were clean and nice-the corn and cotton chopped out and the wheat shocked in thc field; one of these belonged to a widow, and she and her three girls arid one boy were just finishing the cotton. Mark ham dident write anything about the woman with the hoe, nor the girls, but one of these girls was merry enough to waive her bonnet at some body on the train besides me. .Some farmers sit down and wait for to-mor row's sun to dry off the ground; but to-morrow's sun dident shine, and so they wait till next day. Others slap in every chance ami do something; I know one whe began to cut out bis wheat Monday morning just as soon as Sunday ?was gone-for Sunday was thc day it did not raiu. Ile cut half that night and all day Monday and got through with his thirty aeres, and he says he will make 700 bushels. An other diligent farmer made -IOU bushels last year on twenty acres, and sowed it right away to cowpeas and sold his jicavine hay for more portiere than he got for his v?heat. That is business -and Solomon says, "Sccst thou a man diligent in his business; he shall Bland before kings." I am no braggart, hut let me say that if I had waited for thc rain to quit I would bc singing that old song, "A man of words but not of deeds is like a garden full of weeds." I worked between showers, and sometimes when Mrs. Arn called and called mc to come in out of the rain I pretended I dident hear her, and struck a few more licks for Mr. Markham. I wish you could see my hean arbor-not butter beans, but ihn best and most prolific bean I have ever planted. I had them last year on my corn patch, but they do better on pojes or over a cane arbor. Plant two rows of beans five feet apart, and when they are well up stick them with canes. Lap the small ends of the canes together on the ground, and get your wife or daughters to tie them in three or four places-all of uniform length-then arch them over the heans, and nature will do thc rest. I never aw half as many beans aa hang fron, my vines. Of course, the rains have stimulated the growth of every thing, and it's lucky that vegetables grow upward instead of outward. I planted my potatoes in a trench that was shoveled out and manured with ashes-wood and coal mixed-then covered with piue straw and some earih on that. They are the fi?est I ! ever grew, and come out of the straw almost clean enough to cook without washing. Pine straw is very valuable in a garden and is cheap, costing only 30 cents for a good load. It is a good mulch for strawberries, and I am ex perimenting with it under a few to mato plants; most of them I have trained up to stakes, bat I saw a mar ket garden near Memphis and all thc tomato vines had tumbled over on wheat straw, and made more fruit, though uot su large and One as when stcaked. A garden is a small experi mental farm, and is of as much conse quence and more pleasure, especially if you mix flowers with it. Don't throw away your coal ashes; mixed with wood ashes, they are a fine ferti lizer. Mr. Berckmans says that ashes produce fruit, while stable manure produce? vineaud foliage. Ashes wiii double the quantity of strawberries. Beets generally come up too thick. fri ._ AL._A_J A. i . . - imu ?u?ui uuii auu iiausplitlll, UUl Uli part of the tops, and thc transplants will make the best beets. Just so with celery. But I don't propose to teach old gardeners, for some of them can teach me-my neighbor, Mrs. Fields, is the best gardener I know of, and I am satisfied if I eau keep up with her. I have some of my wonder ful beans planted to poles. The poles art/ from eight to ten feet high, and it interests me to see the bean vines reaching up to find something higher to cling to. The tendrills arc now two or throe feet higher than thc poles, and still reaching up and feel ing around in the air. I am going to S LETTER. retting Ahead ol' the aers. iistitnlion. give tlieuj some fishing poles fifteen feet long to day-wish I had some twenty feet long. They remind mc of .Jack and his bean vine-my children and grandchildren never tire of that good old story. How a poor widow luid a little boy named .lack who was good to his mother, and one day Jack saw an old giant coining. His head was as big as a small barrel, his eyes as big as saucers, his nose as big as my ann, hi? mouth like the end of a big st?.vc pipe and his teeth like iron spoons. Ile came up thc road snort ing lik?' a horse, and was singing, "I smell thc blood ol' an Englishman; Alive or.(lend I must have some." Jack ran in the house to his mother and she pulled up a plank in the Hour and dropped .lack down in thc cellar and put thc plank back, and moved her chair and table ou it, and sat down and went to knitting. Here caine thc old giant, pulling and blow ing like a steamboat. He dident eat anything but little boys, and he peep ed in at thc door and said, "I'm hun gry and I'm hunting for a hoy." .Jack's mother told him she dident have any hoy for him, and to go off, or she would set her big dog on him. Then he walked all ro'Uid thc house and looked down the chimney, for he was as high as a tree, but ho couldeut find Jack. When he went away and was out of sight, Jack's mother took up the plank, and reaching her hand down, she pulled Jack out of thc cel lar. Soon after this a poor old woman came along and begged for something to cat, and Jack and his mother fixed her up a good dinner and some coffee, and the poor woman was so thankful that she gave Jack a bean and told him to plant it and it would grow as high as the sky and have bushels and bushels of beans, and thc vine would grow as h'gh as a tree in one night. So Jack planted it right away, and next morning he went out to see it, and thc top of it was away up yonder and he could see it growing higher and higher. So he thought it would be fun to climb it, and the stems of the leaves were Btrong enough to bold him up like a ?adder, and he kept on climb ing and the bean vine kept on growing so fast that Jack couldcnt catch up with it, and by and by bo got so high he couldcnt see the ground and before long he got- up to the clouds and stepped off on the blue floor of the sky, and looking around at the beauti ful ooa?i?ry he saw a gve&t Esc- house that was built of stone. So bc walked over to it and dident see anybody not a soul-nor a dog nor cat nor horse nor cow, but he beard a great snoring inside and saw bones all around the yard. Then ho peeped in and saw that samo old giant asleep on the floor of thc wide hall. His tongue was hanging out of his mouth and his face was greasy and bloody, for he had been eating somebody and laid down to sleep, and bis snoring shook the house. Jack was awfully scared, and started to run, but he saw an ax near thc door, and he wondered if he could cnt kill that old giaut while be was asleep. So he slipped in on tiptoe and raising up the ax as high as he could, bc brought it down on the old giant's neck, and with one blow cut bis head off. The blood spouted* all over the room and Jack ran away as bard as he could. By and by bo slipp ed back to see, and sure enough ?t\c giant was dead and had stopped kick ing and the blood bad stopped run ning. Jack caught his big head by its long bair and dragged it away off to the bean vine and took it down to his mother, and the folks came to Bee it from all over thc country, and were so proud of little Jack that they gave him clothes and pocket knives and marbles and balls, and ever afterwards called him Jack the Giant Killer. And there has never been another giant in the world since, for he was the last one. Many a time have I got tho children to sleep on that story, for of oourso I vary it and embellish it and tell many things to point a moral and adorn the talo. I have not forgot ten how eagerly I listened to thc lit tle stories my mother used to tell mc when I went to bed, nor how I de voured tho Arabian Nights when 1 grew older. Stories that reward thc good and bring grief to the bad chi! < dren are g rea. helps to raising them; they are kindergartens to the ear anti a comfort to their little minds. I had rather please them with a little storj like this than to fret myself abusing Mark Hanna and his crowd, for little children are nearer heaven than Marl is, according to my opinion.

The position of the farmer - wife, her trials and the means hy which her burdens may be lightened are receiv' ing much of tbe atteution which they deserve. They are discussed at farm ers' meetings, and it is hoped that practical good may ultimately be ac complished. Recently two papers on the subject have been read by women. One was by Mrs. Lucy Cleaver Mch'l roy, of Lebanon, Ky. She was talk ing to the men. She described thc visions of tho wedding day, with its glamor arid brightness, and then said: "After that day of all comes the home-making, the nest-building, and, oh! how it absorbs the farmer's busy young wife 1'rilike her city sister under similar circumstances, she has no constant stream of guests, full of interest and suggestions for the new surroundings; her life is necessarily one of much loneliness, ever her hus band being absent from day to dark. Hut >1K' is happy as she works and sings and dreams of success when the home shall be theirs and ;. -nug bank account will make possible the little luxuries both desire. So she builds her castles in the air. God help her if, as they often do, the airy, fairy building crumbles to dust before her very eyes and sorrow comes to sit amid their ruins and croon over her vanislied hopes. For the lirst few years then: are gay little visits home and to girlhood friends, there are guests to entertain now and then, Sabbaths are always a pleasure-they give husband and wife so much of each other's society-and church going seems i|uite a social dissipation. "Thus time rolls on till the children come, and as the mother's cares in crease the hopes for thc future are mingled with fears, interest in outside tli i ii LT -? are lost, pleasures are dropped one at a time, seeing which the hus b.in? becomes more and more absorbed in money making, until well nigh all else is forgotten. Holiday and feast day for thc rest of thc world pass un noticed; in the isolation of farm life it i-) so easy to forget how others live, and they slowly drop into a rut of dreary monotony. Isn't that true of so many of us? Have we not lived alone on the farm so long as to almost cease caring for things beyond it? Is it not true that this history of a day on the dark side of farm life tells the whole monotonous routine of exist ence? "At thc first gray streak of dawn the wife's pet rooster crows long and loud. Ile does it on purpose to awaken her from her beauty sleep, and is always successful. She has obeyed the summons so often that it has become second nature, and before she realizes it she is out of tho warm blankets, noiselessly trembling into her clothes, lest she awake the sleep ing baby; half clad, her cold fingers still figeting with her brooch, she scampers to the kitchen. Once there a nervous fear that breakfast may be late seizes her, and she rushes about until it is on thc table and the family seated, when she draws her first long breath whilo the blessing is being asked. The breakfast bolted in hot haste and the men off to work, she resumes her hurry, skurries through the dishwashing and kitchen work, hastens through bed-making and house deaning, skims over milk vessels, re frigerators and churning, hurries to thc garden for vegetables, rushes through dinner, makes her fingers fly on the afternoon sewing and scouring, so she may worry through supper at the proper hour, to sink exhausted into a chair at bcd time, too weary to speak or think. "She has not only done the thou sand and one duties that fell to her lot that day, but ?he has done them well,, has slighted nothing, and before falling asleep has thought in utter weariness, 'Oh, if to-morrow might never come!' Bnt it does come, and it is always just tho same to-morrow, the same unceasing routine of labor and rush. Day after day, year after year, nothing but toil, toil, hurry. worry, rush; that is the strange thing about it-the eternal rush. Amid the peace and quiet of the country why not go on peacefully and quietly doing one's duty as it comes? There is but ono solution to the problem, and that is, her work exceeds her tim", and she is constantly trying to cslab lish some sort ot ?fjuilibrium. What doe* the hard, barren existence yield in return for all her efforts? Not happiness; one look io the face of the farm woman of the dark side tells no. Not money; certainly not. Though she is thc hardest worker on the place, this farmer's wife has no bank account of her owu. I will tell you what she gets-her 'vittles and clothes;' that is all, though in nearly every case her husband is well able to grant her rea sonable wishes, and the poor creature never has unreasonable ones. "Hut, thank heaven, ail farmers' wives do not live like this; there is a bright side to this, as to all pictures. Life on a farm ought tobe to a woman thc happiest, most care free of exist ences. What with poultry and bees, with Howers and vegetables, she gets outdoor exercise sufficient to keep her young a long time, and her labors arc all healthy-giving and pleasant. La bor is a necessity and a part of every useful, happy lifo. Woman should share man's toil and hardships in thc same proportion in which she shares his joy and ease, and she usually docs it cheerfully. On a farm it has been a woman's share of thc duties to do the housework and rear thc children, ever since live gathered tig leaves for clothes and raised Cain in the garden of Eden. Certainly work must bc done, but let it bc done cheerily and bravely; do not make life a drudgery. "In contrast to thc farm slave as wc have just seen her, let us have the farm mistress, thc queen of thc beau tiful realm called home, one whom thc Maker, Cod, may look upon, as Ho did at the first, aud say, 'It is very good.' Let us learn to have our farm houses homes, where comfort and good cheer abound, where labor is evenly distributed to all and made a burden to none, where there are books and magazines, where time is bad for reading, music, prayer and all proper effort for higher, better things of life, so that we may grow morally and in tellectually as well as physically. These things attained, and the much vexed question of how to keep the boys on the farm will bc answered once for all." Snake Charmed the Boy. PANA, 111., June 14.-Supervisor Dick Berry was driving home in a wagon to-day with his 4-yeir-old grandson on the seat with'him. Ar riving at home, Mr. Berry got out of the wagon and in a few minutes called to his grandson to get out. Ho re ceived no answer. Looking up, be saw the boy sitting rigid on the seat, with his eyes nx< .1 and distended. He called again, but the boy gave no evidence of hearing him. Becoming alarmed. Mr. Berry went to tho wagon and was horrified to find a rattlesnake coiled on the Soor of the wagon, its head waving to and fro and its glitter ing eyes fixed on the boy, who seemed completely under the snake's control. Mr. Berry's first thought was to grab the boy from bis seat. Something quicker was ncccessary, and, acting on the impulse, be suddenly threw out his left hand, caught the snake by the throat, and held it while with his other hand he took his knife from his pock et, opened it with his teeth and out tho snake's head off. Mr. Berry had the rattle', eight in number, taken from tho snake's tail. Nineteen rat tlesnakes were killed on that farm Sat urday, and ninety-six rattlesnakes have been killed on thc D'Acy lands tiis season. Pufferers from piles and skin dis eases may bo quickly and permanently cured by DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve. Beware of counterfeits.

If any one had predicted, a genera tion ago, that the dashing and dread ed cavalry leader, ''Fighting Joe" Wheeler would live to be a brigadier general in the regular United States army and to command a department with headquarters at Chicago, the prophet would have had a short shrift. Cen. Wheeler himself would prob ably have been the last man to credit any such prediction. The fact that these things have actually taken place is the most tangible proof of '.oe uni fying effect of the Spanish w^r. That war has worked many wonderful and surprising changes in the nation's affairs, but none more gratifying than thc wiping out of traditional enmities between the north and south. With one of thc most determined of all the confederate leaders now au honored department commander in the heart of thc north, there can no longer bc any question that the dead past bas buried its dead issues. Gen. Wheel er's qualities as a soldier and as a man have fairly won for him thc esteem of thc reunited nation, and when be goes into retirement next September he will take with him the enthusiastic good wishes of everybody aud especi ally of Chicagoans.-Chicago Taibune. - The man who lives to please him self will lind that he has a hard mas ter. - To persuade one soul to lead a better life is to leave the world better than you found it. - It is estimated that the number of Germans and their descendants in the United States is 15,000,000.
