animal Cotton Statement:
“Under tlie present system of devot
ing so much laud to cotton there Is
danper of over production, and boun
tiful cropu may thus be made a source
of mlHfortune rather than beoeiir. On
'the other hand If planters would rnise
lots cotton and wpuld make at home
the praln, corn ami.,provisions they
now buy, their cotton would btiop a
better price and tbe money received
for It would lemxln in tbe South. The
'dShntb would soon become tbe richest
ootintry In tbe world, for the sums re
ceived for tbe cotton crop are VHbt, al
most beyond comprehension. Year af
ter year tbe crop sells for hundreds of
inillioiM of doiiars, and yet year after
..phwtera remain borrower* of
money at high rate* of Interest, owing
to their present system of maturing
cotton almost exclusively.”—News aud

Browngvillo, Pa , sixf^ years ago \v:i*
(lie *eeiM> of a ngint comical occiirrcncc.
At llm period reierred In the mnnnpgrs
of a rase truck pabli,sited a notice of a
niilo lieat race on a particular day ‘‘free
for gnythrhp with fonrlcp* that Wl l»if -
on,” for » pttrso of #100. A farmer
tuireied Hays had n ImH was in tho
habit df rilling to mill with hi** b; g if
corn, md the idea occurred tu niarot cn-
tcrinp hi* bull 4i-e *ai7l nothing of Ida
iutetuion, hut quietly conunenmi train
ing the bull by riding him. aroantl tho
track bn moonlight, ni^hta. In this nion-
ncr the bull got the hung of th« irack
pretty well and would keep on the right
course. He rotlo the bull with Hpur* and
when they wore applied he would bellow
li'Lduful y.
*1)n the day of iho raco Hays rode to
ti e. taco ground “on horseback” on Ids
hull. Instoad of a Kiddle ho bad u dried
ox*hide, nnd inatend of a whip he car
ried a tin horn. He rode to tlie judges'
Httind aud offered tu enter his bulk but
ihe owners of the lipn-os objected. Hays
appealed to tbe terms *f notice, insisting,
lliat hisbuU had “ftrar lcgAand hair on,’’
and therefore he had a right to enter.— ;
After a good ded of cussio' ” <jn the
(lart of horse owners and considerable
“fusdu’ " on tho part of tho judges it
was decided that the buM hud a right to
rum, and was nccordtrigTy cutcrcd.
When the time for s: in ting arrived the
bull and the horses took their places.—
When tho signal was given Hays gave a
blast with his horn aud sunk his spurs
into the bu:|, which butinded fifl'and the
dried yx hide, flapping up nnd down and
tattling at every jump, made such a
noUe as was never before heard on a
race course. .The horses all immediate
ly flew the truck, and none could be
brought back in time to on vn their da*-}-**'
lance. The purs* went to Hh)s. whose
boil had run round the course, and a
great deal of hard swearing was done by
the horse owners. They contended that
they laid been swindled, and that if it
hadn’t been for Hayr-'s horn-arid ox hide
the thing wouldn’t have turned out as it
did.
Hays tohllhc indignant horsemen that
his bull could bent their liorse* utiy way,
and if they would put up 8100 against
the purse he had-won-he wt trhl Hrke ofi
the nx hide, throw away hi*tin hnrn and
run n lair race, which proposition nu*
eagerly accepted. T ^
Tho bull and the horses were again at
their starting post, and the ninment the
signal was given Hays gave the bull a
touch of hi* spurs and t Re bud give a
tremendous "bellow. The hors**, re
membering the dreadful sound, thought
all tlic^rcst wascmiug as before, and
away they went again, in spite ofall the
cxeii^ous of their riders, while lluvs gal
loped his b.ill around the track aud won
the money. •
