Weather Hints for ApriL We have had no occasion, np to date (Mar. 22), tov question the correctness W of-the weather predictions of Rev. Irl R? Hicks, of St. Louis, Mo., which ap? peared in each issue of the Soatbern ;C ~ Cultivator during the present year. We ; ; - have not endorsed, nor do we now en? dorse?; advance, bis predictions; we simply- -give them ta onr readers for g > what they; are worth ; and so far as we ^?re personally concerned they are worth much in the light -of the past, which shows that for thirteen months he has made no mistake of any importance. POT April he makes these predictions : A disturbing astronomical cause is central on April 1?, the period will end about the 4th, cool weather and frost for several days will follow. From - the, 11th to 17th of April showers will abound, with ? heavy storm possible % daring 'danger days ' The heaviest storms of the-month may he certainly - expected daring the period beginning about the 22d and "ending the 28th. j . Expect the phenomena to' vary in char- ! act er, according to the general progress j of the season, from South to North. All storms, of whatever character, at Mis time, will be hard. Make a note of this. Frost will follow. See. .-: The predictions of Rev. Mr. Hicks are confined simply to 'storm periods;1 he <k>es not deal in fair weather, as will be seen by reference io his monthly publi? cation, Word and Works, which we einb with the' Cultivator at $150. for j ?? ? both. He predicts storm currents, and W? byn?s predictions the people are put on their "guard to watch for-the approach of destructive, storms, cyclones, etc. Blizzards at the West and North and tropical-storms at the Sooth haye been life". " quite severe this year, and according io his forecasts we are to have plenty . more. Also, we are to keep a sharp lookoat for an occasional heavy frost. In his March predictions Rev. Mr. Hick? ss vs : 'About the 8th a storm period of marked energy and violence will begin, lasting until about the 18th. Heavy snow all over the North, turning "$f to-destructive sleet. Rain and general tropical storms southward." How ter- j riMe* these predictions were realized . can he seen by reference to the daily WC- j?unjals of March 13th, in which are \ : detailed the particulars of one of the most destructive snow, sleet and rain :><-: storms ever known in New York, by which the entire, traSc and transporta? tion Business of that great city was suspended. In Washington, Baltimore, Boston and other cities it was quite as bad. It s wept the country, with more Jv * or less severity, from Delawar? to Maine. - Later on^we have this prediction for March : 'About the 39th, prepare for next .danger period; it will last from the-l?th to 24?h or 25th. Daring these -Vernal - Equinoctial periods, ag? gravated by the growing Jovian Period, unusual activity may be expected in Meteorological phenomena." How fearfully this prediction was carried out the people of Georgia need not to be told*, as the terrible cyclones and thun - der storms of the 19th, 20th and 21stv are fresh in their memories. Up to this period many of our friends bad bees somewhat skeptical of the predic-j lions of Rev. Mr. Hicks, but we had I watched him carefully for a whole year j (in which he made co failure) before we published a single word in regard to his Storm Chart. With bis consent, we began its publication in-the January Cultivator, and while many of our ex? changes have copied from us and given \ due credit, not a few have entirely ignored this plain duty. As the Chart is copyrighted and published by us nuder special arrangement with the author, we think the Southern Cultiva? tor fairly entitled to proper credit. We fully tested the predictions of 1887 be? fore using those cf. 18S8, and believe! we have done cur readers and the gen- j eral public great service thereby.- j Atlanta, Ga.f Soutliern Cultivator. \ ' A Voice from Oracgeburg. President McBryde, cf the Sonta Carolina College made a two-hours sneech before the Partners' Association of Orangebcrg County, wbicb met on j the 1st. But, as ?ill be seen; it cid j not have the e?ect of converting any of | the Orar.geb?rg farmers to the Uoiver-] sity-annex sc be OJ e. Hear the. r?solu- i tiens which the association adopted, -j with bat a single dissenting voice, just ? after the conclusion of the speech. They j arc arc as follows : We, the- farmers of Orangeburg County, in convention assen., bi ed, be? lieving that the introduction of a more progressive and cc?nomical mode of j farming is thc only remedy fjr depr<-s- j sion of the agricultura] interest of our j State, and convinced that the same can j only be realized by the education of our j yootb in the science of agriculture, and j experience of the past having demon- ? tte J that such knowledge cannot bc j ired in an institution devoted to j mixed literary and agricultural sources ; j therefore, be it resolved. 1. That we reiterate our conviction j that a separate agricultural ZS? me? chanical college is imperatively de? manded, ia our State, ano wc piedge ourselves to a continuance of our most earnest efforts to establish the same. 2. That we regard the recommenda? tion of the board of trasteos of the South Carolina University for the en? largement of the annex as an acknowl? edgment of the correctness of the charge j of inefficiency of that adjunct of the io- j strutton, and we refer to their report of J nine students taking an agricultural j course out of an attendance of 1G5 as j ^onSrmatory of our opinion. 3. That the action of the legislature in enlarging the annex and increasing j the appropriation therefor was a useless j expenditure, and we predict for the j new school a repetition of the ignoble failure of the old. ---???-<'?

The Farmers' Trust The farmers of Texas have got up a combine worthy of note all over the Union. They have organized a stock company with unlimited capital-that is more money is offered than can be at present used-to^rect exchanges, ware? houses and manufactories for the sale of cotton and its manufacture, and-the manufacture of all kinds of agricultural implements. ? The several hundred acres north of Dallas, known as the Cole fair grounds, have been purchased and are being put in .order for the re? ception of machinery for making plows, hoes, rakes, buckets, harness and many totter articles, as well as a cotton factory with 20,000 spindles. A cotton ex? change and warehouse is being erected in the heart of the eity, where, perhaps, half of the crop of the State will be sold by sample. It is expected that this im mense organization will lead to a dicta? tion of prices to some extent, at least, and if the alliances of other cotton States can be brought to^co-operate with Texas, it is thought perfectly practica? ble to raise the price to fifteen or twen? ty-five cents per pound. The hackers of the movement say it is high time cot? ton plasters were going into a trust, and it only needs an initiation and an opportunity for such a movement to be everywhere^accepted with an avidity that would astonish the world and 'make Home howl.'
