OPY?IGHT,
i!E CENT?BV CCLJ
I was at work In my littlo don at Tho
Evoning Appeal oflloo. Tho paper had
Just gone t? press, but I was hurrying
to finish before going homo u "spociul"
for tho uoxt (lay's issue.
Through my open door I conld seo
the dingy dosks of tho so railed cdi
torial room, must of thorn vacated now,
pud from tin; farthest comer came tho
flrono of a proofreader. Glancing at
Ibis familiar sccuo, I Btoppcd my writ
lug a moment as my uy< ? rested on his
copyholder. Instead of the rough young
hobbledehoy who usually Oiled that
placo, there sat tho most young girlliko
of young girls, making a sunshine in
the grimy pluce. six- had soft liudit
brown hair drawn smoothly back into
jthedeccntest of little knots She turned
[toward mo tho neatest of tittle profiles,
and sho devoted horself to her eopy with
the gentlest bond of her huh II head.
Just us 1 was idly recalling Hie fact
tiiat old Martin, the pt oof reader, had
ouee confided to mo his desire to g< t
tins position for a daughter of his.
Bontley, tho "star" reporter of Tho
'Appeal, came striding in and toward
Uie.
"Spare men minute from tin tariff?"
he questioned, standing in my door
way, pushing his silk hat to tho back
of his red bead with one hand and rest
ling tho otiier, which held a lighted
cigar, against the door fromo.
When I had declared my willingness
(to lay nsido for a time those political
{labors with which it pleased Mr. Bent
ley to Imagine mo always occupied, bo
ttook off hin hat and laid it with Iiis
sugar OU the steam heater outside, came
(in and seated himself astride my vacant
chair and for a moment stared at 1110
in sllonce over tho back of it.
When he spoke, he said: "I'm going
|to nsk a favor of you. Miss Addington,
end I wish by a largo majority that it
was you going to ask one of me. Oh,
yes, I know, you're a mighty nice,
Ipleasant. accommodating littlo girl?
Ithat's aside from my wanting somu
Khlng out of you just now?but you
don't have it tiny too soft down hero,
anyhow, and now I'm going to ask you
?I'm ashamed of myself. But? well,
let me open with tho curtain music,
nnd work up to tho last farewell by de
grees. Tho beginning is"?ho stopped,
waited an instant, got up and turned
his chair around, sat down properly and
took up his sentence again as if ho had
never dropped it?"that I'm in lovo
iwith and want to marry that littlo
nimini plmini, whito faced girl of old
Martin's out there"?then relaxing a
littlo from tho uncommon seriousness
with which this was said -"and I'd
give $100 to be able, without arousing
suspicion, to got hold of that seat that
Culvert lias there by her. That ain't
sentiment, '1 would Iworonglovo upon
that hand'kind of business; it's pure
science. That desk is tho strategic key
to tho whole campaign. I'm not in
with Calvort, we've bcou bating each
other COO long forme to ho able to work
np an intimacy with him now just pre
vious to asking him to give me his desk,
and Ic would be too thin, anyhow.
There is no way to get that desk?here
comes tho climax" Bontloy stopped
and looked at mo dopreeatingly, appeal*
lngly. I was amused to see that ho
could command such an expression?
"unless"-?ho stopped again, scowled
and drew a long breath in burlesqno of
ibis own discomfort and his resolution,
Und, as ho would havo said, took tho
[plunge?"you'd bo so angel white as to
jlet him come in here. He's boon Want
ing to do that this long time, not alto
Igethor because of his secret desire to bo
[near j-ou, but ho thinks it would bo
nice to bo in bore away from the lower
orders, and convenient to the eneyclo
ipediaa that ho gets Iiis littlo pieces out
jof."
Tho Appeal's limited library was in
|tho room I occupied. Expression of my
willingness to share my seclusion with
(Mr. Culvert did not still Bontley's de
sire fnriher to explain and justify hini
BClf.
"You see," ho went on, "I'vo got
the campaign all planned out, though I
can't explain it in a word. I'm perfect
ly willing to explain it, however. I'm
oven willing to admit that it would bo
a pleasure to mo to do eo. I'm too old
and tongh to talk about this kind of
thing to a man, but there's a ?enaiblo
diminution of a dangerous pressure in
lotting oil to you a littlo."
I shall utterly fail in giving any idea
of Bentley unless I am ublo to convoy
an impression of tho personal uncon
sciousness that characterized his con
versation. Ho expressed himself in tho
way that was easiest to him?that is
to say, hb much as possible by estab
lished formulas intelligently applied,
Bonietimes slang, sometimes quotations
that became clang in his mouth?but,
though he often felt tho humor of his
own ideas, his verbal clothing of them
roroly enough attracted his attention.
Ho turned u look at once gravo and
quiz/deal through tho door and upon
[the copy holder.
"Nothing's going to change mo nho.it
Wanting that littlo piece of propriety
lout there hut getting her." ho ro
puarked.
"No, not altogether quite ho snddon
as you might think," ho Haid whon I
expressed my interest in tho speed with
which ho had discovered bis ntontiona.
"Sho wus hero lust month for i wook,
when you wero off doing tho Woman's
convention. I haven't ever got her out
of my head since. It wiis sudden
enough, and I'm hit hard enough. I'm
going to put my system to work now
for all it's worth." Ho turned back to
mo, bitched ids chair half around, ho
thnt the distracting picture in tho other
room Was out of bin range of vision,
nnd went on:
"You'vo hoard that there is a right
nnd a wrong way of doing evoryth'ng.
Well, my system 1h tho ono right way
of going courting -when you'ro court
ing a woman, that is. I'm BOrfy it's
not fitted to bo more use to you. I'vo
got faith in it. or I'd im"? Ho shook
his head slowly in n manner significant
of n Most uncertain frame of mind.
"You can seo with half an cyo," ho
continued in a moment, "that that lit
tlo thing there hasn't beon put through
any mill that would make her think?
put her on tho lookout to get married.
Sho isn't that kind anyhow. That's
why?ono why- I want her, nnd of
courso that's tho very reason I ain't
likely to got her. This world's run that
way."
Bontloy gazed far out of tho window,
his upright red hair looking even moro
astonlsherl ttfnh nnnal as tho cc?unto>
nanco it surmounted took on an uncom
monly .grim expression. Then, without
tue-vm Iii- head, ho brought his eyes
back to mine, looking at mo sidowiso
with ; n turn of something of his usual
twinkle, ti twinkle in < clip.su, and de
olnred:
"It the system I'm asking yon to
pay tribute to. I'm frco to confess,
Mi . A . lington" hero a faint, incred
ible si/de of embarrassment soemod to
cross iJentley's countenance?"that I
novcr truly loved before, hut yet"?
Dcutli ? lilted and knitted his brows as
bo scratched his head witli ono finger
und looked silently at mo.
t w i e< untrained to say, "Why, yes,
Mr. B< ntley. 'hut yet' " ?
"Bgg-'/actly," lie answered heartily.
"You are the sort of person I like to
talk to Well, now. my system is appli
cable in dealing with any young lady
whose good will you wish to gain?
whoso good will yam wish to gain,"
Bentli v ri punted, brightening with on
joymont of the follcity of this phrase.
'?I've had it in shupo pretty nearly
ever si neu my coming out sociable at
Cranberry Center. Not with unvarying
Buccoss 1 don't say that, hut it's dono

1 always have had?that is. but now
the sight of that white inouso out there
takes all the starch out of mo. Curious,
isn't it. though 1 don't supposo"?
"I think, Mr. Beutley," 1 interrupt
ed, "that you are talking against timo
to put oil telling mo what your sy?tem
!iH"
"Gut there every time, dou'tyou?'
Bald Beutley, admiringly. Thon lixing
j a queer look upon me, in which again
appeared that amazing Suggestion of
Bhyneas, ho said slowly:
"Hang around and say nothing.
Hung around industriously" ? pauso?
"and sity nothing, till more or less ur
gently invited to. Yon press tho button
and we do tho rest. These directions
uro capable of 50 different adjustments
to suit the most complicated case."
Beutley was speaking those last bou
tonces half abstractedly and watching
my lace anxiously.
As tiie mystic significance of this
formula penetrated my brniu I was
moved to mirth -mirth that was not
lessened by the fact that I was visited
by a sudden illuminated vision of tho
system's possible workings iu practice
?a vision which at once convinced mo
of its value.
1 wiped my ey es and gavo my hand
to Beutley, assuring him that I holloved
he was master of a great secret.
"Yon do really','" he broko forth
eagerly and seriously. "Say, Miss Ad
dingtoii, you wouldn't guy a fellow in
my fix now. would yon? That's only
the opening of tho campaign, but that'll
the great critical period, don't you
think? That's tho merit of the system.
It attacks tho opposing sex (opposing
box?not bad. is ItV) through their curi
osity. See .' And they quit being eo all
fired opposing early. Generally you
can count on 'em to become helpful
pretty soon - helpful in sumo degree.
Thon's the time for tho next move. I'm
i not much at explaining these psycho
logies phenomena, but tho system's all
[ right. '.Thjs conviction is arrived nt
1 through a priori reasoning and is con
! firmed by subsequent observation.' '
Beutley stood Up as he delivered this
lust sentence and looked down upon me
with a pleasant combination of ead uj#
peal and humorous patronago. Ho was
quoting from my maiden editorial, a
document that laid idled him with mys
terious mirth.
I began to arran o my papers for de
parture, Muauiing J inj in tho meanwhile
of my good will toward his enterprise,
] That seemed tho right word for it.
Ho npologized for taking so much of
i my timo and yet further explained his
needs and plans?as, for instance, hia
??scheme ' for letting Culvert know
that tho way was clear for him to
change his desk while ho was standing
feeling for a match and I was putting
on my hat and coat.
"Yon see," he said finally, barring
my way a moment at tho open door,
"it is hopeless for mo to try to hung
around in Hoboken. That's whero old
Mai tin lives. I uou't say I'm bock?.
Anything hut IT. ooken. But there it Is.
It is perfectl; clear that, however I

Dent ley picked up his hut und Ida

head ind the other in Ids moutli, just
AR h? Kavn inti wliat won in spirit a
courteous, grateful little, nod of furo
well.
old Martin's little girl still bent her
pretty lo ad studiously ovor hor copy
without a buirbrondth's variation of
attitude.
Culvert had just como in and scutud
bimself in scowling introspective preoc
cupation at Iiis desk.
That was the last I saw of tho ofilco
for three months. On the way homo,
through tho untimely movement of a
car, I sprained my ankle, and for a
weary while was confined to tho honso.
In a few days, however, I bogan
work again, writing as I lay on a sofa
and dopouding on messenger hoys and
visits of mingled business and condo
lence from other members of tho staff
to keep mo in touch with tho ofilco.
I had been at home perhaps a month
wlmn one dny Mr. Maloney, n gentlo- j
man who had tilled by turns many dif
ferent positions in The Appeal ofllce,
each, as a rule, being less Important
than the last, was ushered in. Mho joy
of gossip lighted np bis oleary blue oyes.
"And how are you, Miss Addington 1"
ho began. Ho had a charming touch of
brogue. "And indeed it's enough to
make the old one himself sorry for yon
to see what a good timo you got ont of
the worst of occasions. That is a bit of
a paradox, you aro saying, and so is
every other truo thing that over was
remarked in this topsy turvy world, and
yon aro the one that's got tho philo
sophical head on your ehouldors to find
that ont long ago without waiting for
on observant old blind moln liko me to
tell you. Yce, I'm nn Illustration?al
low mo." Maloney_snakily stooped to
pick up my pen. "I can servo aa an il
luHtrutioti when you write your cele
brated treatise on tbo paradoxical, And
now don't interrupt uio for the space of
a minute You're a sad chatterbox,
Miss Addington."
lie stopped and laid an unuianicnred
forefinger against his grizzled temple.
"I'm preparing tho way to a graceful
transition. 1 would bo tel'ing you some
thing tlint is for your amusement. I
sin UU observant old mole, I was Bay

Buy tbore uro other blind moles that 1
bave discovered all that, but I'm about |
to toll you that that big bruto Bontley
is In love with that old proofreader's
little girl, and none in the ofllco knows 1
it but me and him, and it's ten to ono '
1 know it best! Yes. euro, 1 thought 1
you'd bo gruteful to mo for a littlo di
version like that. It's not every day
yon can see or even hear what a brass
monkey's like when it's in lovo. Its ex
pel ii nee much more resembles that of a
white man than you would over imag- i
inc. and that's the truth. No, he's not
trying, as ho would say himself?worHO
luck to him? lie's not just trying to
mash her; lie's in lovo, I'm telling you,
and Iiis feelings uro not dissimilar to
those depicted by Tom Moore and other
po. ts that the hoiking ignoramus never
heard of. and there is the paradoxical
for you. Me bald spot was biggor than
n trade dollar beforo I could havo be
lieved such a contradiction possible, bo
think what 00 inexplicable surprise It
must tie to him, that basnomoro powor
of ratiocination than mo blackthorn
there. I have been industriously gath
ering the evidence for days, till mo con
viction was complete, beforo I'd como
to toll you.
"Well, now, the first 1 noticed was
the way ho went white and red when
she came to speak to him about his copy
one day. It tills me with rage to think
of that ; it does indeed. To think of him
having the additional impudence to ex
hibit a capacity for changing color like
a girl!"
Malonoy staid an hour and I am
sure missed an assignment, telling mo
wi*h infinite relish of detail all the ins
und outs of Bontley's maneuvers.
"He used to write exceptionally clear
copy, you know," said he. "lie has no
more education than me pet cat, but
he can write liko a grocer's clerk, nnd
ho used to do it. I'vo edited his copy
for -11 bo makes such big money. When
old Sheffield was managing, ho used to
cull on mo to help him out when ha
was incapacitated with drink. Ho said
?but it's no matter what ho said; his
betters have said more. But I've edited
Bcntloy's copy when it was clear as

looks littlo better than your own, bog
ging your pardon. That makes business
now and again with the proofreader,
you understand, and soiuoho"' he's
hocus pocused things till it seems an if
Martin read nearly all his stuff, but
I've not found out how ho uiar igos
that." Maloney added tho lust sentence
in u tone ol apologetic regret.
"Does tho littlo girl notice all this,
do you think?" I nskod.
"Indeed and I wish you wore down
there to sei yoursolf. How can I teilt

the old ono himself can make out uoth
iug about them. And Beutlcy's Hly,

derstand him, though. How should over
an Irishman comprehend tho way of
the likes of him with his brass and his
Blynessf Why doesn't ho go at it like a
man am] display to all the world that
bo's in lovo up to his cms and bo's
proud of it? That's what a woman
likes, be she old or be she young."
Overweighted as I was with Bent
ley's scent, I was tempted to edgo
upon it by discussing this point, and I
said that undoubtedly a woman was
apt to like that kind of tribute, but 1
was not sure that it always followed
that it made her like the man equally.
"And it' he can give her what shu
likes, ought not ho to he satisfied, I
say, and if she does not liko him so ar
dently isn't there tho loss chance that
ho'll marry her, to the sorrow of both of
'em ?"
I told Malonoy that he made my head
oclie, and he went away, pledging mo
to secrecy about Bentloy. Nevertheless
I was not wholly surprised when tho
next visitor from the ofiico quoted Ma
loney as authority for the news that
Mr. Bentley "was making that is, hu
was paying attention, not exactly pay
ing attention, but.Mr. Maloney thought
ho was going to pay attention to that
Miss .Martin."
This visitor was tho managing ed
itor's typewriter, an elderly young wo
man, not bad looking, tint with a con
strained miiuner, grayish hair and a
denn lying desire for human intercourse
that should be labeled intellectual, or,
n her own phrase, to be sociable and
Improve herself with literary people,
literary people being, in her opinion,
any who earned a living by the use or
abuse of tho written symbols of lan
guage.
"Mr. Maloney says that Mr. Bentley
is that ho cures about her," she said
tentatively, sitting uncomfortably on
the edge of her chair.
I conquered the inevitable throb of
resentment that I felt at the discovery,
faintly expected though it was, that
Maloney was just as confidential with
the typewriter as with me. As I had
felt myself rarely gracious in appreciat
ing Mnhonoy's ont at elbows charm nnd
hud credited him with a becoming sense
of my kindness, this required nil in
stant's communion with my higher
self, and then 1 was rewarded by a de
lighted perception of how utterly liko
Maloney it was to lapse into intimate
conversation with any petticoated ob
ject within his orbit. The appeal that
these storied garments would always
make to him was now ro-enforced, too,
by that false.sense of masculine dignity
which makes mon slow to gossip of
familiar personalities with one another,
liven Maloney felt constrained for u
time to give his really interesting and
curious news only to the patronized sex,
though, to do the staff of Tho Appeal
justice, tho time soon came when the
artificial ico was brokon and Bcntloy's
hojies, fears und prospects seemed to
occupy them night and day, to tho
manifest gain in color, vivacity nnd
value of tboir conversation.

Leguminous plants do that with an ex

The article is entitled, "The pro
blem of increasing human energy."
The author considers humanity en
masse as a physical body, whose
effectiveness or total energy may he
computed by the physical formula at
at otic-half Ihe product of the mass by
the square of the velocity.
Mr. Tosla says there are three way s
ol increasing the sum of human energy.
The fust is to increase its "mass" the
second is io reduce the retarding force
or friction, and the Ihbd is lo incici si
the impelling force.
Taking up Ihe llrsi ?i tLesi: bca U,
he. says:
"Thcie arc two way s <,i indenting
tho mass of mankind; liisl by aiding
ami maintaining those forces and con
ditions which lends io increase it, and
reducing those which ten i to diminish
it. The mass will be increased by
careful littet 11 loll lo health, by sub
stantial food, !>'? moderulioii, by re
gularity of habits, by the promotion of
marriage, by conscientious attention to
the childicn, and generally slated b)
the observance of all the many pre
cepts of religion tuel hygiene.
'?Everything against the teachings
of religion and hygiene lends to de
crease the mass. Whisky, wine, leu,
coffee, tobacco, ami such siumiluals
arc responsible lor shortening the
lives of many and ought to be used
with moderation, Hut I do not think
that rigorous measures ..! suppression
of habits followed through many gen
orations are commendable. Ii is wiser
to preach moderation than abstinence.
Wo have become accustomed to these
stimulants, ami if such reforms arc lo
be effected, they must be slow ami
gradual. Those who uro devoting
their energies lo such ends could make
IhemSOlveS fat' more useful by lUI'llillg
their efforts toward pioviding pure
water.
"For every person who perishes
from the use of a stimulant, at least
a thousand die. from the consequences
of drinking impure water. Tho germs
of destruction it conveys are all the
more terrible as they perform their
fatal work uupoiceived. They seal
our doom while WO live und enjoy.
The majoiity of people arc so careless
in drinking water and the consequences
arc so disastrous, that a philanthropist
can scarcely use his efforts hotter than
by endeavoring to enlighten those who
are. thus injuring themselves."
The retarding forces are war, ignor
ance, insanity ami imbecility. To re
duce these is to Increase the muh of
human energy. Knlighti nni'-nl is
velocity, and if the children born into
the world are "of higher velocity"
than their parents, ihe energy of the
race is increased, etc.
There should he a qualification just
here. There are kinds of education
that reduce energy. To increase
energy it must he practical.
Iiis remarks on war as a roinrding
force are striking, lion is (he mosl
USOlul material of civilization. That '
used in war is about 00 per cent, of
that USCd for all of the purposes. De
duct it Iroin the effcclivo force of iron
ill Civilization ami VOU have, only 40
per cent. left.
On the contrary, if ihe destructive
or retarding force of (ho iron used in
warfare be turned to useful account
and added to the effective iron of civil
ization, ihe result will ho an effective
force of 100 percent.?four limes that
now enjoyed by the race tit the same
expense. -?
When it conies to the. means of ston
ping war, Mr. Tcsla's ideas are (anlas
lie. He proposes lo make machines
that will act like automatons, whclher
?Iriven through the air or uodel the
walcr. They are to DO Controlled by
some kind of electrical impulse an
alogous to sound waves ami seul with
out wires with the air as the medium
of communication.
He goes to the length of spying these
machines can he developed to a still
higher typo which will act for itself,
directing its motions according lo
surroundings?practically acting like
a human being when left on duty with
a certain amount of discretion.
Tho problem of increasing force
starts with the sun?tho source of all
tho forces in operation on oarth. Un

In regard to communications with

Tho most satisfactory piogress is be
ing made with the preliminary work for
the South Carolina, 1 nter-State and
Wist Indian Exposition to be held in
Charleston, Docctubcr 1st, 11)01 to
May 1st, 11102. More than .fI 17,000
has a 1 read} been raised in Charleston
for the project and the executive com
in.tire, is now extending its inlluuncc
! ami usefulness by appointing members
in the various counties of the Stale, lo
j serve witli them, ami thus make it
duly, as II should hi- a stale enter
prise. The qUC8tion has been asked
i why should the people of the Stale be
I particular!) interested? and this can
! be answered in a dozen wa\s. The
, history "of expositions in this ami for
l eign countries has been, that not only
was the city where the big show was
held bonolited, but the entire sur
rounding country has almost immedi
ately shown signs of improvement.
I The exposition, with only the pro
ducts of Charleston shown would not
I be of special service to South Carolina.
I hut even a Charleston affair should be
patronized ami approved by the people
of the Slate. This exposition, how
ever, is intended ami will show to the
world the weallb ami resources of this
splendid State of South Carolina.
The Textile I'alace which will be the
"main building" ami which will show
a cotton seed ami the result from it,
will Intoicsl thousands of men who arc
looking for investment and looking for
homes. They will not wish to settle
in Charleston to plant cotton or to
build cotton mills there. The man
who is interested in the splendid
forestry exhibit will hardly expect to
make a home in Charleston and fell
trolley poles. The mining engineer
and pl'O&pcdor will llnd little interest
in assaying Belgian blocks in the
streets id' Charleston, and the tobacco
grower from Connecticut who sees the
line opportunity for transferring his
work to a more fertile soil where the
winter is not nine months long und

THE MERCANTILE SIDE OF
FARMING.
This has. been too much overlooked. I
We have heeu accustomed to think I
that others should run that for us. We 1
have boon BO much engrossed in pro- j
ducing thai we have not given hh much
thought 10 selling as wc should have '
done. There are so many sharp traders
in every line, ready to manage that for
us, thai wc have quietly submitted to
their management. Of course they
looked after their own interest.
The result is that all we make is
consumed and yet wo remain poor.
More than this, every class is mak
ing more money out iff our produce
than we make.
sr.l.UNO COTTON.
Take this, the most important money
producing crop wc grow. We have
given more thought to this than any
other. Ami how does this stand?
Everybody gets better pay than the
producer.
The picker gels good wages for
picking. The ginnor gels good pay
for ginning. Tlie. bagging ami tie
men get immense profits furnishing
the covering. The warehouse mull
get good profits weighing and storing.
Many of them have accumulated large
fortunes in this business. The iiistir
ance companies make very huge money
from every crop. The sampler and
Street or wagon buyer make good
wages. The diaytnen get handsome
pay. Tho railroad ami ship companies
make larger profits than on any other
class of freight. The compress men
gel immensely rich, "squeezing" Ihe
badly packed hales, The larger buyers
start in business with little, or no
money ami gel lo be millionaires.
Hankers get handsome profits, furnish
ing llio cash and paying the hills. The
manufacturers double their capital and
pay largo dividends. Lastly, hut most
ly, tin- speculators a vast army of
sharp traders and schemers, who deal
in cotton in sight and out of sight, and
gamble in options lo the ruin ami hurt
of thousands of honest men oft* n roll
in wealth when they should be toiling
in chains. Thus wc sec these filtern
classes of men all making profits,
sometimes immense forllllics, and
many others incidentally gulling a good
living while we often sell at less than
the cost of production.
Take ihu manufactured goods nnd
follow Hi em back to the consumer,
und tho man who grows the cotton
i.-, a very liberal consumer, und lind
nhuosl us many proIiis attached. Wo
sell a pound of cotton for from six to
eight cents and sew on our buttons
with Hi read that wo pay o dollar per
pound for. None of these people are
to blame lor making what they can ami
do. They arc only looking out lor
self interest. Hut we are lo Maine for
selling them our cotton without lirsl
gelling a protll for ourselves.
iron CAN rn.s m. don k.
First we must own the cotton. We
ean llCVOr control lite sale of a mort
gaged crop, or a crop made upon
pro\ isions bought on time. We must
raise our own supplies, and own the
cotton. This has been often said.
But we have not yet learned whal ii
really means.
'1 hen we must distribute the sale
through the twelve months. By doing
this we will avoid the numerous go
bet weens and get nearer to the manu
factories. In this way wo ean get
what our COltoU is worth to the manu
fncllircr. We can ihus slop the forced
sale we have been making. We can
avoid the annual glut of warehouses,
railroads ami money markets.
When we have done this we can
have a voice in the price. We have a
practical monopoly of glowing this
great ami essential crop of American
COtlOll. Wo lose all tin immense ad
vantage for want of business methods
in sidling.
When we gel in this shape many of
us, when we found a cotton crop Oil
band for which we could not got a
satisfactory price, we could hold it and
quit making cotton, and give our at
tention to something else until tin
price was satisfactory. Of course this
means a great revolution in our meth
ods. But that is just what we need
and must h ive if we are ever to gel
fair prices for farm products.
OTIIKIt CHOPS
Whal we have .aid about cotton is
equally true of many other crops. The
seed of tho collou is another illustra
tion. Most of us sold our seed this
past season for about fourteen cents
per bushel or less. A few who held
on got twenty live cents to thirty
live. All could jusi as well hive got
ten twenty-live cents if we had waited.
CottOll seed are worth twenty-live
cents to us. They are worth OVCI Hint
to the oil mill men. Why should we
sell them al fourteen cents ?
Wo sell llii! seed al less than one
half cent per pound, and the. hoy the
Oll back in lard at eight cents per
pound, the meal at over one ci nl per
pound for feed and manure, a id the
hulls at nearly one cent, and the Hill
brings from three to four cents.
It is tune we studied the mercantile
side of Inrmitlg more. We have no
light to make Upon any honorable
business or any honest business man.
But we have a great light Oil hand for
i self-defense and belli r methods ill
I selling our farm produce.
Wo might extend Uns article in
(lellnitoly, hui wo hopo this will help
lo awaken farmers tu its importance.
We must continue the line of luvest!?
gation, begun at l.a Grange ami en
larged ami emphasized at the conven
tion at Macon, Georgia. We must
tree ourselves from the domination of
the compress men, the roumllap hale
trust; the bagging and tie trust; the
option market gambling trust ; the cot
ton seed oil trust, the fertilizer trust,
and every other trust.

MAGNITUDE OF THE PEANUT I
CHOP.
Scientific A(noricr.ii.
Tho peanut nop of 1800 is nearly
1 ,(iii(i,ti(iii bushols heavier thau tho crop
Of the proieding year. The total crop
will, it is the aught, reach near 4,500,
000 bushels Of 22 pounds each. The
hulk ol the crop is produced in Tennes
see, Vilgilliuuud North Carolina. It
is not generally known that the Ameri
can ylold constitutes hut a small pro*!
portion of the peanut crop ol the world; :
the exportation from Africa and India
In Europe is uoarly 100,000,000 pounds
annually, half ol which goes Io Mar
seilles to he made into oil. Tin- run
ning variety i* a typical American pea
nut, says the Kvcning Post, from which
wc derive, our information. Its vines
are huge, with spreading branches
growing tlitt on the ground. The pod8
are large and white. There arc many
IllO'O varieties grown. The so-called
Spanish nuts arc used principally
by confectioners. They have I
small, round kernels, and are
very line. The crop averages annually
I."?0,000 bags of 110 pounds each. It is
only within recent years that pea
nuts have been shelled by machinery.
With the increase of their production
machines have been taking the place
of the old slow-going methods.
To grow peanuts successfully re
quires a calcnroous soil without too
much lime, and under such conditions
the yield runs from '10 to 40 bushels
per acre. There are about 20 peanut
factories in America ami the capital i
required for starting a mill is small. ]
Olio factory handles live tons ol pea
nuts daily, producing 23u gallons of re
fund oil, 170 gallons of crude oil,
080 pounds of flour and meal and .'!,.
800 pounds of slock food. An extensive
grower does not take the trouble to
separate peanuts front the vines and
dirt when he has dug his crop, but
sends everything to the factory. They
arc put into the mill, vines, dill and
all, and arc then placed into a hopper
and led into a revolving cy linder which
cleans them by Motion, the diit, loaves
and vines being taken out by a suction
pipe. The nuts remain in the cylinder
ami they arc fed out upon a revolving
slat-table, the 8lalS resting upon can
vas, from which negro women pick out
those, ol the lirsl glide which are
known ns44fancy," The selected nuts
are fed Irani the (aide into chutes, and
thou into bags. The remainder are
run user a second revolving slat table,
fed into chides and packed into bags
labeled "extras." Four grades are
sorted, the lirsl three being sold to
dealers and the fourth lo confectioners
for making burnt almonds und cheap
candies. America docs o heavy ex
port business to Ktiropo in peanuts.
Foreigners do not eat them as Ameri
cans do, but grind them into meal.
They also make oil of them which is
resold (o Americans as olive oil. The
nuts arc very rich in oil, 40 per cent,
of the shelled nut being oil. After
the oil is extracted the cake which re
mains is sold for $!J0 a ton in Germany
and led to cattle and sheep. Peanut
butler is one of the latest uses ol the
peanut. It is made by grinding the
nut very line ami reducing the mass
to a pasty substance, a portion at least
of the oil being removed. Salt is ad
ded as flavoring.
The rubber substitute discovered by
an Italian in Central Mexico is obtain
ed from a shrub called yule ami other
names by the Indians and botacanically
known ns Synalhcrcoons-Moxlcanns,
This shrub grows rapidly and aluidd
lilltly, reaches a height of about three
feel and may be easily cultivated.
While it docs not yield a milky juice,
pounding and maceration in napthn or
other hydrocarbon solvent extract gum
j amounting to as much as 40 per cent,
of the plant's weight. This gum har
dens only to a viscid, sticky mass that
has the valuable propeities of rubber,
may be vulcanized perfectly,and is su
perior to most rubber in its freedom
from mechanical impurities. The
plant may be treated either in a green
or a dry state. As prepared, the gum
contains a residual portion of the sol
vent, and the composition, hailed as
"the twentieth century gum," is
claimed to offer a saving ill the cost of
reproducing the plant, in exportation,
in purifying materials, in fuel, in ma
chinery, and in time.
Albinism and melanism were remark
ably illustrated in a collection of birds
shown the other day to the Uiitbh Or
nithologists' club. ' Albinism is an ab
normally light coloration duo to lack
of pigment, and melanism is a darken
ing ol normally light-colored animals
by an excess of pigment. Several
hundred specimens represented the
Trlng Museum, said to contain a
greater number of these bird rarities
thai) any other single collection.
Among the most curie..: specimens
were a belted kingfisher, totally
while curlew, some pied hawfinches, a
penguin, in which the plumage usually
black was grey, and a Wn.XWiug in
winch the dark plumage was replaced
by while, while lhe. usual red and yel
low remained. Much inteicsl was
aroused by a molanislic wood-cock,
while it was declared that a great snipe
Willi spotted plumage on the upper
sin lace might easily have passe?I lor a
new speeies.
The future steam engine, in the
opinion of Mr. ('has. T. I'or lor, is to
depend upon mechanical draft instead
of chimney draft-. At a late meeting
of tho American Society of Mechanical
Engineers, he staled thai the new en
gineering has established that the
boiler furnace shall lie independent of
natural draft, effectually consuming its
smoke, and burning two or more limes
as much coal as il could do under nat
ural draft alone, and yet sending off
the gases at a low temperature ; the
heiler being a steam generator, a su
