OOXHO TO PASTTTHH.
Let down the ban for Brindle,
For bonny Bon and and Nell,
The pretty, icft-ered creature*,
With eaoh a tluklln* bell.
VTe hear the rlpplinv muslo
That faint and fainter «rows
Beyond the purling brooklet
And pan the sweet wild rose.
Knee-deep in long, lush clover
The dainty things will stay.
And browse and dream for hours
This lovely summer day.
The while.our merry laddie
And little sunburnt lasa,
Like trloksomo colts In pasture
▲re tumbling on the (tass.
When drift the twilight shadows
Across the cherry tops,
And ilng the hermit-thrushes
Bweet vespers in the copse,
Then, near and nearer sounding,
The tinkling bells will come,
And little lad and lassie
Muy "call the cattle homo."
The gentle-stopping Brindle
And bonny Meas and Nell,
Full-uddered, take tlio pathway
Across tho dimpling doll.
And when tho ample larmstoad
Is hushed beneath tho stars,
Tho bolls will sleep In * lonco
Behind tho sheltering bars,

Long Leaf Pine for Cotton Bagglngr.
Commissioner Colman or the United
States department of agriculture, in reply
jfo Francis I. Palmer, of New York, in re-
" gard to tho use of the leaves of the lontj-
leaved pine (in place ol jute) for cotton bag-
ging, says:
I have your letter ol yestorday, asking, on
behalf of your irlends, if a sufficiency of
leaves of the long-leaved pine can be gath-
ered to bag the cotton crop (in lieu of jute)
without material injury to tho forests.
You can readily judge of this yourself
when you remember that tho long-leaved
pine covers areas in tho southern part of
the Atlantic forest region, measured by
more than 100.000 square miles. For in-
stance, North Carolina has an area of about
15,000 square miles, South Carolina about
7,000, Georgia 10,000, Alabama 14,000. the
eastern gulf region 40,000. Louisiana and
Texas also have largo areas, and there is a
large region o I long-leaved pine west of the
^Mississippi.
These immense areas, as you aro aware,
arc annually invaded for timber aud naval
stores (rosin and turpentine) to an extent
which, in the aggregate, lar exceeds the
common belief; and it is fairly probabio
that tho leaves of the trees felled for these
purposes will be utilized for the uew bag-
ging Industry, in preference to standing
timber, as being more aceesslble nnd cheap-
ly gathered than to penetrate the dense tor-
est growth lor deioliation.
Your fears, based on tlio allegation that
tho leaves of the young trees only must be
picked for the purpose, do not appear to be
well founded; tor such a necessity is not
yet an established fact, and may never be,
Inasmuch as the fatally ot pines drop their
leaves every third year, and tho new leaves
which lollow are precisely similar to those
of young trees, except it may be in their
length.
To sum up all existing conditions, I think
you may safely assure your friends that
forest experts do not share your icurs of
the effect on forests of this new iudustry,
nnd that, while they consider the long-
leaved pdne us doomed to ultimate disap-
pearance ns u forest contingent.yet they do
notcontemplato tliat such result will be ac-
celerated by tho use of tlio loaves for bag-
ging cotton, nor as much of a factor in linal
deforestation as the timber and tiavai store
uses.
Mixed Farmirifr.
A cattleman In conversation with a News
man yesterday remarked that the farmer
who gives his attention to one crop or
raises one kind of animal is (mdoue If that
particular crop fails or that particular
branch of stock raising is overtaken by
calamity or suffer a lull in price. But tho
farmer who raises u variety ol crops or
several kinds of animals has several chances,
aid can stand without great loss a failure
or temporary shrinkage iu the valuo of any
one of them, for it is seldom or never the
cuse that there is a failure ot all crops or a
decline in the prico of all animals at the
same time. When cattle are down horses
are up—in fact horses are nearly always up.
When the cholera comes along and i he bogs
are dying like sheep, sheep and wool are
liable to be on a boom, at Jeast they are in
nowise affected by hog cholera. Or to mix
them, if corn is cheap and cattlo high, the
corn can be marketed lor u good pries by
feeding it to the cattle. In fact the farmer
with several irons in the Uro, is at but lit-
tle more expense than the farmer who
stages his all on one crop, or one branch of
livo stock raising, and then ho is hedged
against a failure or temporary dlminslon in
any particular direction. For thoso rea-
sons a country engaged in mixed agricul-
ture is always surer of uniform prosperity
than u section that raises but one product.
The depression in cattle values has Injured
the country that is dovoted exclusively to
cuttle raising to an extent almost border-
ing on ruination, whereas, if the people of
j the same section had been engaged in
mixed farming, the damage resulting from
a shrinkage of cuttle values would have
been coullrmed to a singlo branch or their
industry, and reduced in importance pre-
cisely in the proportion that a single branch
bore to all the branches. The prosperity
of Texas will therefore be Increased as the
big ranches are cut tip Into larms and
mixed agriculture takes the place of cattle
raising.—Dalla News.
As Intelligent Sheep.
Several years ago I wos at home with my
father and mother ; we bad a very cunning
sheep among a larje flock. The Intelli-
gence of the sheep was shown by mauy in-
genious tricks, one of which I mention.
Father hurl a large barn, and on one sido
was a shed in which we kept sheep. In tho
side of ihe barn next to the shed there was
a large ont-bln in which we had severul
hundred bushels of oats. At various times
when we were not at the barn, we eould
hear a very peculiar noise—knock, knock,
knock—in the shed. AVe did not pay any
attention to It at first; but as the strange
knock, knock, knock continued, wc began
to wodcr what it could be. So we tried
In various ways to And out, but failed in
every attempt
One morning about 4 o'clock, father
aroso, and hearing the noise in rapid suc-
cession, act about solving tbe mystery, and,
to tbe satisfaction of all, suoceeded. He
walked very carefully and slowly to tbe
barn, stooped down and peeped under the
door before the sheep was aware of it.
He M* the sheep referred to, which bad
long horns, standing beside the oat-bin,
with lts tounge m a spoon shape placed un-
derneath a knot-hole, while It would ham.
inertbe plank with its horns and thus
causo tbe oats to run out. On examination
we found it had poured out several bushels.

vocate.
V. 8. Secretary ot Agriculture.
Regarding tbe appointment of a secretary
of agricultura tbe Western ltural says: We
could suggest a good many good men, but
we do not train with the particular class of
men who will likely furnish the secretary.
Tbe Rural has no objection to the creation
of tho office. What It objects to Is the
seeming belief iu some quarters that all we
neod is a secretary of agriculture. Tbe
secretary of agriculture will do as well as
the same man would do as commissioner of
agriculture, with the same sympathy aud
support from the government, and no bet-
ter. If that point is admitted, we havo no
further controversy with anybody. The
present commissioner of agriculture has
done as well as uuy living man could do,
with the same support. The agricultural
department, as a whole, has been well man-
aged under Mr. Colman.
Working for Fun.
A farmer at Hood river shipped sixty
sacks of potatoes weighing about 100
pounds each to this city a few days ago.
The potatoes sold here for forty cents per
hundred, the top price. The freight was
twenty cents per 100, the drayage two cents
for the Backs, commission two cents, which
with six cents for the Backs, consumed the
entire proceeds ol tho sale, leaving the
farmer not a cent for his seed, the labor of
planting, cultivating, harvesting and ship-
ping, which, as anyone knows who has
hoed, dug and picked up potatoes, is no
trilling matter. This is not right, and
whether tho wrong is in tho railroad com-
pany charging >-¡16 por ton for freight, or in
the potatoes bringing such a low price, is
what is puzzling the poor farmer. It is
pretty tough to work all summer and alter
sending one's crop to market not get a cent
lor It aud have no potatoes either,—Orego-
uittu.
Poor Land and Oood Stock.
Wo are asked by a southern correspond-
ent to advise bim us to what breed of cat-
tle ho shall adopt upon a worn-out farm,
lie liuB just purchased tho farm, and he pro-
poses to go into stock raising to bring it
up. At present ho says tho laud is very
poor. To begin with, our correspondent
must remember that ho cannot cxpect to
keep any breed up to stundard or to make
it prolltable, without plenty of food. If
bis land.will not furnish enough food, and
he does not propose to buy food, he had
better not go into the business of breeding
pure bred cattle. No farm should have
more stock than it can keep well and easily.
It does not make much difference which
breed he selects, provided he selects ouly a
number that the farm will keep well. We
should advise as liberal fertilizing as ha can
afford, and especially tho use of green fer-
tilizers, particularly clover. If the farm
will not support a pure bred animal so as to
keep it up to standard, wo honestly think
that our correspondent has found aplace
whore the scrub would do better than a
thorough-bred. However, if wo were iu
his place, wo should keep good cattle—few
or many us he likes—and buy food for them.
A ton of buy led to good cows will pay at
the pail and pay iu the manure.—Western
Rural.
Barbed-Wirj Fence Wounds.
The barbod-wiro fence is the lie phis ultra
of fences. The jagged little stool thorn is
too high for tlio horse, too strong (or tho
bull, and can easily be made hog-tight. The
irrepressible mule will pause before lie at-
tempts to pass the limits which it imposes.
lJut the farmer, who rejoices in the secu-
rity which the fence affords, soon learns if
every rose has its thorn, tlio barbed-wire
fence has also, when his tavorito thorough-
bred has come in rudo contact with it. The
cruel knives have lacoruted the flesh of the
borkc, and at tho same time torn a hole in
the purse of the owner as well. How at
onco to haul those two rents is a question of
the fanner. Ordinary liniments and salves
are generally too severe, even when tho lat-
ter is plentifully mixed with lard.
A preparation consisting of one part tur-
pentine and two parti lard will soothe the
wound and keep away flies. Deep cuts
can bo healed thus without leaving a scar.
But if the animal is not In good condition,
blood-poisoning may ensue and death fol-
low. I'ine tar applied to the parts affected
will also keep away liles; but It has a ten-
dency to harden the bare flesh and render
it more painful. A salve made of bitter
sweet, and a little pino tur mixed with it,
will heal tho wound and keep away Dies.
Ordinary cuts oil barbed wire fence,
when the amtnial Is In good health, will of
ton heal rapidly without any application
whatever, provided thg files are kept away.
I will give a simple remedy, which will not
only keep away insects, but will drive out
maggots from «ounds where they aro
found, and heal them rapidly. Takothe in
side bark of the elder, and boil in lard un-
til a strong salve is made. Add a little tar.
Apply plentifully, and ns frequently as nec-
essary, and unless the wound Is extremely
severe, it will soon heal.—Prairie Farmer.
Editorial Expression.
Mr. J. JC. Ellis, editor of tho Pari* Nows,
says: •'! have given Uass & Bro's Chicken
Cholera Cure a thorough trial. It is cer-
tainly a sure preventative, and will also
! cure chickens that are sick, If tbey arc not
! almost dead. I have tried many other pre-
I vcntaiives. nnd cures for cholera among
' chickens, but tiiis is the only one that ever
! gave ron any satisfaction. I cheerfully
; recommend it to nil who want a certain
preventative of cholera among fowls."
Horticultural Brevities.
A writer in tbe Florida Farmer and
¡ Fruit Grower recommends tbe Peen-to
•took lor propagating finer varieties of
peaebea, being better adapted to a sandy
soil and hot climate. The idea atrlkea ua
favorably.
Mr. Jame* L. Norm and, of Markavllle,
La., aaya of tbe Japan blood: It la tbe ear-
liest peach known. In quality It la first
rate: tbe fleah red to tbe centre. Thia and
the Muir (a peach noted for Ita excellent
quality), tbe Burke, celebrated for Ua size
and beauty, are undoubtedly great acquisi-
tions to our llat of southern Iruita.
Peaebea, pluma, nectarines and other va-
rietieaof atone fruits may be grown suc-
cessfully In the ben yard when they will be
an utter failure In a neglected orchard.
This is a valuable bint to farmers who
would like to grow a sufficient quantity ol
fruit for family uae and at tbe aame time
keep tbe bona within bounda. Tbe drop-
pings will fertilize tbe ground, while tbe
poultry will keep the surface free of grass,
also destroy the curcullo or other vermin
which prey upon the tree aud atiug tbe
fruit.
There can be no question that so fur as
tho Leconte and Mariana plum are con-
cerned, even if the fruit wore entirely
worthless (which is not, being of fair
quality), that their introduction Into tbe
southern states for stocks alone is for
the benefit of our people to tho extent of
many hundred thousand dollars, llelng so
easily growu from cuttings, any farmer
who has sufficient intelligence to learn how
to bud may easily supply himself wl'h va-
rieties ol choice fruits of that class at a
minimum price. Any reputable nursery-
man will sell buds and grafts guaranteed
true to name at low prlceB (which can be
sont by mail), hence there can be n > excuso
for not being supplied with the choicest
varieties of fruit except through sheer la-
ziness.
Special Notice to the Order at Large.
The Exchange has several hundred
boxes containing lifty pounds each of first-
class evaporated dried apples. These goods
are from last year's slock, but just as nice
as over, only they arc stained a little on the
edges. That is to say, they are not as
white as fresher apples, but not as dark as
dried quarters and halves. They aro iu
every way as good, and tho Exchange íb
anxious that tliey should be sold at onco
and oilers thum at a burga!u of $4.&0 per
box, F. o. B., at Dallas or Bclton. Let the
brotherhood In the sub-Alliances throw in,
aud scud for a box, uud help us get rid ol
this stock nt once.

Avoid the harsh, irritating, griping com-
pounds so often sold as purgative medicine,
and correct the irregularities of the bowels
by the uso of Ayer's Cathartic Pills. They
are Invaluable us a family medicino.
A passenger on u train from Now York
the other day stopped from tho overheated
car to the platiurm and tilled his lungs with
fresh, pure air. "Ah," he exclaimed, "Isn't
this exhilarating?" "No," returned the
laconic brakeman, "this is Berlin."—Hart-
ford Couraut.
A single bottle of Ayer's Sursaparilla will
establish the merits of this medicino as a
blood purifier. Many thousands of people
are yearly cured of chronic diseases by tho
faithful uso of this remedy. It is uiiequaled
for the cure of scrofula.
Some timo ago a teacher on answering a
knock at the school door, found one ol her
pupils wrapped up to protect her from the
ruin. "Teacher, mother says I needn't
come to school to-day, 'euuse it rains," and
down stairs tho little maid lied like a fright-
ened deer.—Albany Journal.
There is no more friiiilul source ol disease
than vitiated bloid, Jt involves every or-
gan and function or tho body, and if not
immediately corrected by the use of Ayer's
Sitrsupurlila, sooner or later leads to fatal
results. Be warned in lime.
An unpropitiouB moment—llaud (who
has answered the door-bell herself)—George,
you must not come Into this house to-night.

George (tragically)—Oh, Maud, ray dar-
ling ! What serpent has entered our Edon
to wreck our happiness t Speak, girl,
speak!
Maud (teariul)—Futher has just como
homo with tbo gas bill.—Lowell Citizen.
Tho combination of ingredients lound In
Ayer's Pills renders them tonic and cura-
tivo ns well as cathartic. For this reason
they are the best medicino for peoplo of
costive habit, as they restore the natural
action ol tho bowels, without debilitating.
