Two pa pers a day and tho ueoplo gather at tho poBt oltlco waiting for them. And whon it comoB it'u ail about war afar oft and crimo at homo. Murder, buI oido?, dlvorcca, outrages by nogroos, lynchlngs and tho Atlanta muddlo and Kentucky murdor thrown in as a Bide show. Somo of tho proachera are tak ing a hand in tho gonoral melee and are raising a rackot in tho mono of the Lord. How different la all this from the good old tltuos whon we got the mall only twice a week and were con tent to worship God on Sunday and work on week days and had timo to think and ponder and talk toour neigh bors. Whon two doctors wore enough for tho community and they had but a llttlo Bhop full of modlcino and there wero no drugstores and no patont medicines, and Jim Aloxander anu his brother, Tom, and Gib Wright and Adam Jones uud hiB brother, Krank, and 1, and some othor boys, who aro now dead, never woro sick or took any medicine except Baits or castor oil for green applo colic. What a glorious fellow was Bryant Strickland, whose hearty laugh could be heard across tho town. He diod not long ago and lcfl his hearty laugh with bis boys. And good old Georgo Luster, who ran against Dr. Folton for Gougross. There nover was a hotter boy, nor a better man, nor a hotter friend. 1 loved him and etlll remember how ho and 1 searched ovor tho potato patch to tind Bomo romalns of tho stars that fell In 1833. What a change has como ovor the world, some things for tho better, some for tho worso, and we must take lifo and progress as wo Und it. Pope Bald : " Whatever is, Is right," but old men and old womon can'*, help looking backward and rogrettlng thai some things have passed away. Of course, wo cojoico in the many comforts that invontion has brought to us, but tako it all in all, tho avorage of human happinoss remains about the same as It was Blxty years ago. Wo had more content then, moro love and fowor divorce* and grass widows. Children wero moro obedient tu their parents and thero woro no cigars or cigarettes or Dull Durham tobacco or Coca (Jola or cocaine or hip pocket pistols. Every ' v.'n had one or two saloons where a th. He was played (or tho old sots, but young men did not go there. There was not a young man in our town who ever took a drink of whisky, but nowa days young men consider it manly to smoke and drink, and oven somo of the young women got drunk on the sly and vainly imagine that nobody knows it. Our negro BlaveB wero contented and happy and not an outrage was com mitted (rom tho Potomac to tho Hio Grande. Now thero aro 24,000 of them In the chaingangs of tho Southern States and 4,1U0 of thorn aro in Georgia. Who 1b rcBponBiblo for all this, and the lynchlngs that atill go on i Mis taken philanthropy and unmistaken malignity. If tho South had been lot alone we would havo had gradual em ancipation half a century ago when Henry Clay was its advocate and Henry Clay whlgs wero a power in the South ern Statea. Now wo are taking the back track and are updoing what our enemies havo done, and 1 hope Georgia will follow North Carolina's lead and that Mr. Hardwick will try his bill again at tho next legislature. 1 would amend it a little, but in the main it is right. I would oncourago the negroes vo a better citizenship, both morally aud Intellectually. The county com mlsslonors or tho grand jury should bo authorized to examino and mako a selection of certain moral, industrious negroes and give them tho right of suffrage. Thero aro some in every community that I would trust. Thoro are a do, en or more in Cartersvlllo, and every community has a few. This would create a caste or a social condi tion in the race that would havo a good inlluonco. 1 would trust such men as I'rofoseor Counclll with any political privilege, and thoro arc others. Frank Carpontor is a groat travolcr ?a diligent student and a great writer. It is Interesting to road from his pen tho true condition of tho negro in tho Philippines, flow tho nogro captives are bought and sold, and ho was offered four Ukdly ones for $;>Q by a woman who claimed to be a Mohammedan Christian. Tho boys avcrago ten dol lars and a good looking girl brings from $15 to $20. This trallic hae been going on for a hundred yoars, but for tho last half century has been dull. New England slave ships had to quit the business about that tlmo foi tho Brazil market was overstocked and English vessels woro watching too olosoly. According to history tho last cargo was captured on tho coast of Madagascar in 184b. It was a yunkee craft and v.u.. iittod out in Doston. That Is why Chief Justice Story charged the grand jury that " Doston merchants wore steeped to thoir eye brows in this infamous business." But this is all barred now by tho statute of limitation*. Professor Coun clll believes it was ordained of God for the good of tho negro, even though it was baptized in blood and Inhumanity. "Offenses must needs como, but woo unto them by whom they como." But in some respects tho South is making god progr-.ss. Our manu factures are increasing in ovory Stato, our agriculture is improving and our fruit growing is advancing all along Mm line. The diffusion of knowledge Is spreading from the towns to tho country hamlets and every body takes and reads newspapers. Now if wo can stop these negro tramps who waylay the highways and byways we will havo a good quiot, peaceable country and can sit under our own vines and shade trees and worship Cod according to our own conscionco. Moan niggers are our greatest curse and there are thousands of them, for, as my niggor, Bob, said whon he had served his term in the ohalngang, " dar is somo as moan niggers in do chaingang as dar Is outer dar." That is about tho truth of it. If every niggor wan put in who has been guilty of stealing thoro wouldn't be enough left to get up a ^baptizing or an excursion. ^ Bill Abp. P. S.

Slnoe August Oth when tho tem perature was ninety-one degrees the conditions have boon growing worso. All In all, it is the hottest continuous weather New York has ever experi enced. The local forecaster said that it surpassed tho heat record of is:si. The thermometer reached ninety-tivo at 2 p. m., and registered tho same figures an hour later. This was the offlolal record In the buroau, high above the street, and is several degrees cooler than tho temporaturo on tho streets. While ninety-five was reached on tho . seventh and ninth days of August there was a higher range today and tho ther mometer hardly wavored below the highest figures for many hours.

What a Republican i'apor Thinks Would Happen. A question waa recently addressed by a Republican to the Boston l'ost, and to this tho latter ropllcd with much sincerity, although it has not hitherto boon regarded as a strictly regular Democratic organ : Suppose Bryan wore elected Presi dent, what would happen P What sort of a 1'resident would we have in him ? In tho first place, wo should have a thoroughly honest man in tho White Llouse. This is a fact conceded by Mr. Bryan's political Iocs aa well by his political friends. And it is moro than tho Republicans can aay of every can didate for President put up by their party. Wo should havo a President of tin questioned ability. Mr. Bryan has shown himself a man of parts. Ho is not only a brilliant orator, he has demonstrated his possession of the qualities of statesmanship. Wo should havo a President who la personally unselfish. Mr. Bryan is devoted to principles rather than to the advancement of his individual In t3roats. lie is a broad-minded man. Wo should have for Presldont a man of tact and good humor. Mr. Bryan would enter tho White Uouao without enemies to punlah or grudges to satisfy. Be carries no " knife." And touching the politics and issues on which thla election turna, woahould havo a i'reaidont dovotod to tho Re public aa agalnat the imporlal theory of government; to tho protection of tho intoreats of the great body of tho people aa against monopolistic cabals. Wo should have a President who has pledgod himself to what wo at tho Kast regard as a mistaken theory of finance, but who would be unablo in ; ho four yoara of hla term to put his theory In praetlco In any form. All in all, even from i.ho Republican point of vie .v, there have, hee.ii many candldatea, both Republican and Dem ocratic, whose election to the Presi dency would bo proporly regarded with groator approbnnsion than that of Wil liam Jonnlngs Bryan. 1SRYAN WIIjIj TOUR COUNTRY. Tho Democratic Nominee Will ZVIako Speeches at Various Points. W. J. Bryan'a visit to Chicago has practically resulted In an understand ing that ho will travel almoat as much during tho prewont campaign aa ho did in 18l)(>. Tbo Urat Inclination on his part was to avoid tho making of many speechea thla yoar, but thoro has boon such general proaauro that it is under stood that be ia now inclined to yiold and visit many parts of the country. No posltivo promlaea for participation in tho campaign havo been made for other Statos than New York, but tho probabilities aro that ho will go from that Stato to Maryland, where tuoro appears to bo groat anxiety for his ap pearance Aftor that tlmo he is likely to make a quite general tour of the north Mississippi valley Statos, includ ing Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Minnesota, etc. No authorized statement hap ooon givon out to this oltoct, but the? is no doubt that this is tho present tondoncy ?that, indeed, tho plan is practically decided upon. In New York it is ex pected Mr. Bryan will speak only in tho largor cities. The Silver Republicans originally oxpectod to notify Mr. Bryan of their nomination of him to tho prosldonoy at tho samo time tho Populists make their notification at Topeka, Kas., August 23d, but this purpose haa boon changed. Thoir notification will oomo later and tho probabilitfes are that it will be made, at St. Paul or Minneapolis. Hon. T. M. Patterson, of Denver, will make tbo speech notifying Mr. Bryan of tho Populist nomination at Topeka. There will bo no notification to a vice presidential candidate, as in view of Mr. Towne's deolination the Populists at present have no candidate for that office. IHK KAIIiROAD COMMISSION. Their Po wem And Ouile? Inlorma (Ion From Candidate W. I). May-) n?ii<i. 'ltiu following points uro mado by W. I), Maytiold, candidate for railroad commissioner, In bid speeches : Tho board of railroad commlsslon ora la ono of tho moat important board* in tho Stato. It has control of tho rallroada, telegraph and oxprcua com panies of tho State ; haa powor to reg ulato schedules, mako and alter freight ratet' and help to tlx tho valuation for taxation. The board la of groat im portance to tho pooplo of tho State and could bo of groat bonellt. Tho board la composod of threo mom bora who hold cilice for six yoars, ono to bo elected every two years, and each mombor pots a salary of $1,UU0 por an num. Theao aalartoa aro paid by tho rallroada. The rallroada not only pay tho aalarioa but (urniah the board au oltlco, Htalionory, atampa, fuel, lights, pay tho salary of the clerk and give each member and tho clork a pass ovor all the roads in tho Stato. Tho people elect theso otllcers and tho railroads pay thorn. This is wrong. Tho Stato should pay thorn and tho term ahould ho mado two yaars lnstoad of six and thoy should bo mado to como bofore tho people every two yoara, llko all othor Stato ollicers, and glvo an ac count of their stewardship. This would call forth action. Tho people aro demanding protec tion ovorywhoro from trusts and cor porato power and this Stato should nave a froo and independent board to protect tho people's intorost from on croachment by those corporations. It will bo too lato to lock tho stable door aftor tho horso la gone and I warn tho pooplo to havo this law changed. In this Stato unjust discriminations aro mado by tho railroads in favor of certain towns and cities against others. This is wrong and ahould not bo al lowed. Tho commission has tho power to regulate local rates and could pre vent it. (Jortalns portions of this State are well adapted to fruit growing and truck farming and opportunity should bo given lor development aud exten sion of theso by giving rates which will permit them to bo put on the market on equal terms with fruit and truck grown In other Southorn States. The fruit growers and truck farmers lu tho lowor portion of the Stato can not sell to tho pooplo In tho upper por tion for luck of proper rates. Tho fruit growers und truck farmers of Georgia load and ship to tho North through South Gurollna for a less ralo than our pooplo havo to pay. This Is not right. Somebody got a good rate for Georgia and somebody could got as good a rate for South Carolina. In tho portion of tho Stato whore fruit and vegetables are grown largo quantities might be canned protitably if it could ho put on tho market but tho local ratOB will not pormltour peo ple to compete with outsiders who en joy a bettor rate. Koller mills in this Stato should havo rates which would encourage whoat growing and enable thorn to compote on equal terms with mills out sldo of the Stato. Hut such is not the ease. A roller mill in Augusta has a loss freight to points in South Carolina than a mill in this Stato has to the samo point. So it follows that our roller mills aro at a disadvantage in selling to our own merchants. This is wrong and Is an injustice which should bo remedied. Furniture factories in this State cannot compete with factor ies jutslde of tho Stato in selling to our own morchants for tho reason that tho factories outside of tho State havo bettor ratoe than our factories can get. Tho roault is wo havo no largo furni ture factory in tho Stato. What is true of furniture is true of iron workB, brooms, shoos, wagons, bugglos, soap, rope, canned goods, ag ricultural Implements, and thero is no good reason why wo should not havo good ratoa on all of these. Somo South ern Stato will take tho lead In their manufacture and why not South Caro lina. The uppor portion of South Carolina cannot raiso cotton onough to supply the mills and the mills havo to buy on othor markets. Tho lowor portion of tho Stato raisos far moro cotton than is manufactured there and the mills in the upper portion of tho Stato should bo onabloc to buy from tho lowor por tion. Hut such is not tho caae. Tho rate from tho lowor portion of tho Stato is so high that tho mills aro forced to go to Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi becauso they can buy thoro and ship here cheaper than thoy can buy and ship from tho lowor portion of this State and tho farmers aro forced to Boll thoir cotton at a loss prlco than It ought to bring aud tho cotton is shlppod out of tho Stato and manufac tured olsewhoro. This Is an injustice to tho poople In the iowor portion of tho Stato. Cotton mills shouid bo given tho very boat rate3 for marketing thoir products. Such rates, ? would, with the best ratos for buying, oncourago tho milling business in tho Stato which ovorybody knows is to tho Intorost of tho Stato. Wholesaling In this Stato should bo encouraged instead of discouraged. It is to the Intorost of tho Stato that largo wholosalo storos bo ostabllshod. It would add wealth an:l keop money at homo. Wo havo somo wholesale stores in tho Stato but thoy arc not duo to anything done by the .ailroad commis sion; and havo to labor at a disadvan tage. Wholesale mere! nuts In Savan nah, Augusta, Atlant k, Richmond, Lynchburg, Wllmingtra and Norfolk can Bell to '.the rotall merchants in South Carolina choapor than can tho wbolcsalo morchants of this Stato bo causo thoy havo bettor ratos to points in this State than our wholesale mer chants havo. This is a Bhamo and our raorchantfl should havo roliof which would enable them to compoto on equal terms. Charleston, i'ort Koyal and Georgetown should becomo import and export cities of this Stato. Tho ratos now in force prevent them from ovon competing for tho business which prop erly belongs to thom and drlvos it to Wilmington and Savannah. Thoy aro bo completely " bottlod up " by roason of rates that business is takon from thoir very doors instead of boing able to command that and invito business from othor portions of tho Stato. I doubt If tho parallel of such a wrong can bo found anywhorc. Tho fact is that South Carolina has tho highest froight rates of any South ern Stato except Florida on all com modities except cotton sood. Tho low rato on cotton sood 1b boing followed by cotton soed oil mills in almost every section of tho Stato. Low rates on other commodities would bo fol lowed by factorioa of dllforont kinds. Low ratoB on tobacco would protect and bonotlt certain sections of our State and result in tobacco factories in this Stato. Roosf:vkl.t Wim. CAMPAIGN.?Ac cording to l'orry S.

Previous Information which has been rocolvou horo showed that tbo allied armies took possession of Tung Chow on tbo 12th lust. From that city to Pekln tbo distance is not very great, I not more than a dozen miles. It seems | evident, thoreforo, that tbo armies halted for a tlmo at Tung Chow, prob ably for tho purpose of giving tbo men a rost and to prepare for tho attack on tho capital city In force after waiting I until the rear of tho advancing hosts should arrive at tho front. Possibly also delay was tho resultof negotiations Inaugurated by the Chinese olliclals looking to tho delivery of the ministers with a Chlneso or other escort. If ne gotiations wero attempted tboy must huve failed as tbo army contlnuod on its march and attacked tbu capitul throo days after reaching Tung Chow. Tho olliclals hero wore awaro of the fact that tho stronghold of tbo Boxera was In tho Chinese city and that for the allies to attompt to force tboir way through It into the Tartar city in which the legatlou compounds aro lo cated might moan a great loss of life and possibly a defeat. It was also known that the Imporial troops which have sided with tho Boxers wore many of them In or near tbo Chlneso city and that such of tho artillery and rilio tiro which has been poured into the lega tions bad boon from tbo walla separat ing tho two cities. Those facts evident ly wero communicated toCen. ChalToe and tho other commanding ollicors of tho allies. Itoallzlng theso obstacles it apears the allies decided to attack tho city by the east gate. Thoro aro four entraucos to too city on tho oast, two loading to tho Chinese city aud two to tho Tartar city. Just which of these was solccted as tho attacking point Consul Fowler's dispatch doos not disclose. Contrary to the press roports of today Consul Fowler's dispatch shows that tho attack on the city met with strong resistance. Tho Japanese advance engaged, according to tho un derstanding of the etil dais here, num bered 10,000 men so that tho loss suf fered by them was over 1 percent. No mention is made of the loasos of the forces of tbo other armies but it is pre sumed that it waa In proportion to that sulTored by tbo Japanese. Tho proaidont waa overjoyed on bear ing the newa of the safoty of Mir.lstor Congor and his associates.

The Plauter lias most Favorable re ports from those who have grown the vetch for two years, both for a green forage crop und for bay, and the editor of the magazine lias seen it growing and making a splendid yield of hay after having been put in tho early spring, lie has also seen it make a heavy crop when not seeded until late in the spring. The proper time to sow it is in August, September and October, and should be seeded at the rate of .">() pounds per acre, if sown alone. A better plan is to sow 20 pounds per acre with half a bushel of oats, wheat or rye, as the grain "holds up the crop" and makes it easier to harvest aud to cure into hay. It is a more reliable crop than Ger man or crimson clover, because it is not so easily killed out by hot sun or drought when just started. Its growth during the winter months serves to prevent leaching of the soil, and "adds greatly to the supply of soil nitrogen." At the Alabama Kxperimont Station a special study has been made of the crop, and some interesting facts are report ed. When cut just before blooming the yield of dry hay per acre was .'1,1 17 pounds. When 5 per cent of the blooms showed the yield was :t,70? pounds. When in full bloom the yield was ?,780 pounds. When seed pods formed the yield was 5,403 pounds. The. percentage of protein muscle and llcsh forming food?in the hay is "higher than in any oilier of the leguminous crops, as red clover and eowpeas, and much higher than corn blades or fodder, while in fat produc ing matter it is nearly their equal." Asa fertilizer and improver of land it is of hiffh value. The Alabama Station calculated that the "nitrogen" contained in the vines, stubble and roots from an acre harvested when the plant was in full bloom would be equivalent to that contained in -J,,V71 pounds of cotton seed meal, and that one week later it would he equivalent to 2,S!iO pounds of the meal. The total nitrogen content of the crop in creases with the. stage of maturity. In experiments made in growing corn on plats where cither the entire growth of vetch, the stubbles of vetch, or the entire growth neatly matured, rye had been ploughed under, the yield of corn was 50 per cent greater, and in some instances 100 per cent greater on the. vetch plats than on the rye. plats. There was little difference in the yield of grain on the vetch plats whether the entire plant or only the sluhbhlc and roots were ploughed under. Finally, it is noted, as a hog pasture "nothing better than the sand vetch can be grown, as it conies in early and holds out into the hot summer."? News and ('our'u r. - ?^mtm* ? ?mmm?

Tho greater tho amount of caseinc and of milk sugor in butter, the moio quickly does it become rancid. It does not appear that light and air exercise any direct influence upon the process.

Writing from Aurora, Nob., \V. B. Curtis, correspondent of tho Chicago Record, refers to the great chauges which have taken place in agricultural I methods It) Unit State as a consequence of the introduction of scientific train- I iug by the agricultural colleges as fol- I lows: "There are fewer farms and fewer stores in Nebraska than there were j four years ago, but both are larger and i more profitable. Farming is no longer carried on in a desultory way. It has become an exact sciouco. Business methods have been introduced by use of which men of industry and intelli gence win and the other kind of farm crs lose in the competition. This is true not only here, but all over Ibe West. The agricultural colleges are largely responsible for these conditions. Nowadays, it is as necessary for a farm er to be educated for his occupation as for a lawyer or a doctor, and the degree of bachelor of agriculture is conferred by the universities as well as of arts and medicine. "The State University of Nebraska, for example, is a typical institution and illustrates the demand as well as the appreciation of the people tor learning. It is situated at Lincoln, was founded in 1809, and the brick for the first building were hauled sixty miles from Nebraska City before a railway was opened. A class of two was graduat ed in INT!! and a class of nearly two hundred this summer. There are eighty iusliuctors in tho faculty, 2,000 Btudenl8 Oil the rolls, and an alumni of several thousand, who arc the solid men of the Stale. It ranks with the great institutions of the country, and is especially important because it gives a practical education applicable, to the climate and the soil and other condi tions of the country thai cannot be con trolled. It turns out every year botan ists and husbandmen, agriculturists, ir rigation engineers, veterinarians, hor ticulturists, geologists, chemists and all other classes of culture, who are need ed and scatter over the Stale, devoting their talents and industry to securing the largest returns for the least labor. "You (lud these men everywhere iu Nebraska and many of them upon the farms, where they are engaged in what may be called concentrated and By stein? atic farming. Nebraska is divided ?'v longitudinal lines into different y.oues. The eastern half of the state has a heavy and BuHicient rainfall. The western half is loo dry to make agricul ture sale without irrigation. The easternmost counties are devoted en tirely to farming, the next strip to farming and fattening cattle for the market, the next to farming and ranch ing, placing the most important in dustry lirst, the next to ranching with a little fanning on the side, and the western counties to ranching, with im ported vegetables and butler "Aurora stands in the center of the fattening district. It has a favorite locality where corn and alfalfa?those two great mortgage lifters?grow with equal luxuriance, and is surrounded by what are called "feeding farms," to which lean mountain cattle are brought by railway train and turned into beef. They may properly be called meat factories, for they convert the raw material of the country'?grain, grass and water?-inlobecf, mutton and pork. "The establishments arc conducted upon strictly busbies- and scientific principles. One of tl ? 'feeding farm ers' told mo that seventy-live bushels of corn and a few dollars worth of alfalfa would put from 100 to 500 pounds of beef on the bones of a steer, and that one hog can be fattened upon the leavings of three steers, so that the pork is a clean proUl. A shipbuilder nowadays can tell you exactly how many miles an hour the steamer he is designing can make before the keel is laid. He calculates the resistance of the water, the revolutions of the wheel and the amount of coal consumed, and then by a mathematical process can determine to within a few hours how long it will take her to go from San Francisco to tho Philippines. A scientific fanner at a feeding farm can calculate With almost as much accuracy the amount of food it will take to tit a carload of steers for the market. He has learned at the agricultural colleges how much nitrogen, albuminoids and protein is necessary lo produce 100 pounds of beef, and mixes the food of his cattle accordingly. lie under stands that the amount of nutrition in the >rn and the alfalfa depends upon the iiine when I bey are cut, I hat the amount of crude fiber in a plan) in creases rapidly aller a certain period of growth ami that hay or corn harvest ed before it is quite ripe contains an excess of water which is wasted in feeding. Ills scientific training enables him to solve the secrets of nature ami carry on Iii? operations in tilling the soil and iu fattening the cattle with a mathematical exact ncBS." What is the moral in all this ? W think Farmers' Voice points it ut very clearly as follows: "Scientific agriculture is the only agriculture that will win out in the lace of steadily increasing competition. Kvery young mau in I his country who contemplates ;i life on the farm or in any relation whatever to agriculture should ponder well this fact, with the opening of tho new school year, now near at hand, arrange to outer aiul lit himself for the duties and responsibili ties and the success that surely will 1)0 his if he will but learn and apply his learning to his chosen calling." A curious failure ?f sensitized paper and dry plate8 is reported by Licsc gang. The materials being proven of the usual quality, it was suspected that acetylene, with which experiments were being inaile in the next room, Whs the cause, and this theory was found to be. correct. Neither hydro gen nor coal gas appeared to have the same action. Further experiment made it clear that soino impurity of the acetylene probably phosphoretted hydrogen and not sulphuretted hydro gen ?reduced the silver compounds in the emulsion. Sensitized paper was quickly spoiled by the phosphorus of matches laid near. Calcium carbide, it appears, does not require for its production the in tense heat of the electric furnace, as has been supposed. One English manufacturer obtains it by heating halls of lime and coke iu a gas Maine ; and in another process a mixture of lime and coal Is exposed to the heat of coke burning in oxygen. Iu both cases a special furnace is necessary. Plates of borax and iron Illings, strengthened by a web of iron-wire mesh, are used by M. Cherbonnier, of Paris, for facilitating the welding of two pieces of iron or steel. With those plates the. weld can 1)0 made at a much lower temperature than without thou, and it is niado much more sound. OASTOIIIA. B?ar? the _/} N* Kind You Hate Always Boujjhl Signatur?

In the meantime the product g??c> to Wa8lo. At the present moment, for instance, the trees are laden with fruit of all kinds, and though purchasers stand ready for all the fruit raised, more of it will be wasted than market ed. With the fruit in sight, with the demand urgent, people wildly rush in and want to know if they can estab lish a cannery on live minutes' notice. Whin they discover that this cannot be done, then they fold their hands helplessly.'' The time to establish canneries is | not at the height of the growing BOO sou.

When hogs are comfort able, which can only happen when they are not crowded, they fatten more readily, and the cost is much less. They should keep on green food until the weather becomes cold, as a liberal supply of grain is of no advantage at this season.
