What Women Can Do in a Southern Garden. Frequent reference has been made in the Field of the returns from a small piece of land in the South, carrying poultry, fruits, vegetables, stock and other lines which can !>e looked after by the women or children of the family. A striking illustration of what can be accomplished in this direction is the experience of Mrs. I. E. Richardson and sister, Miss Lucy Gerard, at Coden, Alabama, on the | Mobile it Ohio Railroad. With their aged mother, these ladies occupy the old Gerard homestead, which has been the family residence for more than f>() years. Thirty eight acres are contained in the home place, of which, hut the minor portion is used in the growing of pecans and tigs, and the raising of poultry and a few head of stock. There is not a man al>out the place. Mrs. Richardson's elevenyear-old son monopolizing all the credit which accrues to the male line of the family. The ladies carry on the place with only such outside help as is necessary at times in the gathering of fruits and nuts. There arc about 150 lig trees on the place, hut the product of some 2"? is employed in the preserving of the fruit, of which Mrs. Richardson estimates a thousand pints can he put up, these selling at $4 per dozen. Five thousand pounds of pecans were gathered last season from oO trees and sold at 10 cents a pound, the nuts being shipped to Mobile. About 100 hens are kept, the figures for March of this year showing that 184 dozen eggs were sold in that month at 20 cents a dozen. The ladies kept an accurate record of their financial transactions and their books show that from about about 7"? hens in lOOo, they not only received S-So in money, hut such additional sums as paid for the feed of the chickens and the keeping of the family horse and cow, all of these besides eggs and poultry for the table. During the past ten years a few head of stock have been raised, and sufficient sales of beef cattle were made to show an annual dividend of 33 1-3 per cent, on the amount invested, without counting the additional sums which have occasionally been realized for stock sold for other purposes. The Gerard homestead, pleasantly situated near the bay shore, is , surrounded by trees, the principal one lutina o?i? CO t O.* in height, whose spreading branches | of about loO feet delightfully shade f the yard and porch of the resilience. . The place is well supplied with ' various fruits, including grapes and f oranges.?The Southern Field for f October. j The Criminal Instinct. f It is natural enough that those 1 who commit crime, and cannot conj1 ceal it, should seek to excuse it. '% Not a few charge their evil acts upon some ancestral taint or tendency which they have inherited, i and cannot resist. We have scrip, tural authority for the statement s that the consequences of the sins of - parents may be entailed upon their posterity to the third and fourth generation; and this is sustained by the facts of human observation and experience. But, does the Y law of heredity, which we must recognize, destroy our voluntary powers, and effect our personal responsibility? If so, then he who simply yields to the inherited tendencies of his nature is not accountable for the acts he commits. To subject liim to trial before a court (1 of justice would be an outrage and 'H a wrong. It will readily Ik1 seen how such a' , theory would strike a fatal blow at * our whole system of criminal jurisprudence. It would leave a community and the members com . posing it at the mercy of a set of >' lawless wrongdoers who claim exemption by virtue of their evil 1 j inheritance. Neither the Bible nor ! the State admits any such extcnua'* j tion of crime. All legal enact' ments that look to the prevention I j and punishment of crime take no I account of any hereditary prompt[?1 ing back of it. It is assumed that everyone has the power to do right : if he so classes, or to abstain from doing, wrong if he so elects.?Kx Final Discharge. Notice is hereby given that J. C. '? j Sheppftrd, Jns.
