January There a greater range in temperature between day and night at this season than in summer the mercury sometimes falling during darkness to 65 degrees on the coast and ten degrees lower in the highest alti tudes Sixtyfive degrees means really cold weather to the Puerto Rican and the American who has lived on the islaad for a few months does not disdain to envelop his linenclad person in a light over cdat The difference between the temperature in open sunlight and dense shade is so marked that Itis actually dangerous to seekshelter from the sun when overheated in the shade of tree or jungle pneumonia is commonly produced in this way and many of the pulmon ary compajuts in the island may be traced to injudicious cooling off beneath umbrageous natural arbors A bit of superstition exists in the minds of the untutored na tives to the effect that certain large trees which form bowers of shade exhale poisonous noxious vapors and that those who unwittingly or foolishly rest beneath them die with frightful pains in the chest and back the true explanation being of course that acute onges tion is superinduced Haleys Hill News During the sunshiny days ol last week our hustling

Policy Those who from a partisan standpoint haVe found fault with PteldcntMcklUlefbecause he did not in the beginning of our recent wars assume the role of a sorcerer pretend to foresee the course and result of impending events and outline and announce a pet personal scheme proposed to meet all emergencies and contingencies in these thrilling scenes of civilizations progress come unsought upon the Republicthat they might ridicule his mistakes and laugh at his presumptionwilSI probably be in a by the announcement of a wise and pacific policy just now given out as a brief stalement of the at titude of the administration upon the gpban and Phillipine prob lemsThis is the policy briefly statet in a special dispatch from Wash ington i To deal with Gee Gomez for lb disbandment of the Cuban army ignorha- the socalled Cuban Assembly 2 To withdraw United States troops a fast as possible from the localities pacified in Cuba under horns rule 3 To administer to the hostile but deluded followers of Agninaldo by force of arms a lesson expected to teach them the folility of further resistance to the United States 4 Having restored order from M nla to Malolos then to proceed by the aid o commissions and conferences with the mor enlightened Filipinos to map out a pro gramme for the future which will be aCt cepted by the Filipinos and be communicated to Congress early next session False Prophets Confounded The question of money circulation is none the less interesting these days even if the logic of events has effectually silenced all but the most blatant of the ialse prophets who in recent political campaigns have predicted the dir est calamities upon the country under the existing gold standard The figures of the Treasury Department for the year ending March ist continue to confirm and strengthen the sound money men in their advocacy of the standard Speaking of this Brad struts says An increase of over fzbobopooo in the total amount of money in circulation and of over ts per bead of population as com parsd with the corresponding dale a year ago indicate a very remarkable expansion indeed in the volume of the circulating medium for a period of twelve months Tlshowing is of a nature to confound the financial theorists who prophesied a contraction of the circulating medium as the result of the maintenance of the existing gold standard What seems to be shown by the statistics is that when there is no question as to what the standard is and the value of currency remains nndis turbo by speculations as to what may be the result of new legislative enactments it flows in abundance in the ordinary chin eels of exchange In this condition the United States has remained for the last two years and one of the retails may be seen in the unchecked enlargement of the circu hung medium Yet in the face of facts that cannot be refuted Democratic con- ventions are held and in the absence of any hopeful issue upon which to base a national campaign t they continue to ratify the Chicago platform with Its proven false financial theory and all its other enormities How long will Democratic leaders presume upon and disgrace the intelligence the rank and file of their party They cannot hope tor justification with the intelli gent clement of the party but is sues are scarce just now on their side of the house and there must be an issu- eFarmers Institute Lecture on Potato Culture The first thing to do is to select a piece of land lying in clover sod Plow from six to eight inches deep according to the fertility of the soil Thoroughly pulverize with harrows the seed bed and strikeout the rows about three feet apart Cut the potatoes iu such pieces as to have one eye to each piece and plant one piece in place and about sixteen inches apart in the rows covering four inches deep The best seed potato i are those which have been kept from sprouting until planting time as the first sprouts have the most vitality and will produce earlier and larger and more potatoes than the second and the second growth after the first sprouts have been subbed oft will yield next earlier larger and better tubers than the third as each growth exhausts a certaittamount of strength and detracts from its productive value The time to plant potatoes is to get them in the ground as early in the spring as possible so that their growth may be finished before the hot summer weather arrives For the late crop plant so that the growth and maturity may be after the hot season is over and during early autumn No other fertilizer is required if a good clover sod is turned under Th clover while growing large quantities of nitrogen from the atmosphere and stores it around the roots which when inverted In the bottom of the furrow yield the fertilizer so necessary to the production of potatoes After the potatoes arc planted stir the surface every few days even after the sprouts appear through the ground using a two horse harrow for that purpose Then keep the weeder or cultivator or whcclhar row going continually and prevent the weeds from starting If tlii weather should be very dry sti the soil frequently even when not weedy which makes the top into a mulch and prevents the evapora tion of moisture from beneath Portions of the same field which ought to yield equally under simi lar treatment have demonstrated by subjecting one to the above mentioned and the other to the old method of waiting for the weeds to grow J1nd for tfie rain to come that the former caused the spitelin failure On the acreage de Jaborsavingg pends the desirability of having sing and harvesting the crop The small farmer who raises but two or three acres of potatoes an nually could not afford to purchase an expensive planter or digger while one who cultivates each year from thirty to sixty acres is justified to buy them To culti annuallyemost man ner requires the use of a planter and a digger and bushel boxes save handling the potatoes twice The method of frequently stirring the soil during drouth to prevent injury to the growing crop from lack of moisture is based on the theory of capillary attraction If a glass tube one inch in diam eter and open at both ends Is placed perpendicularly in a vessel of water it will be seen that the water inside of the tube stands higher than without Reducing the size of the tube increases the height of the fluid inside of it The moisture in the soil rises to countItinuous arrangement of the mole cules ol earth in such form as to permit it Consequently when the surface is disturbed in cultivating the continuity of the tubes is broken at the depth reached b the implement the rise of the moisture temporarily ceases and the more frequent the disturbance t the less opportunity is afforded for new formation of avenues for its escape The potato crop is followed by wheat with which grain clover is sown The next year after the wheat is harvested the clover is cut for hay The second growth is allowed to fall and turned under with the sod for the following po tato crop Clover hay when judiciously fed to horses and cattle is a balanced ration and they require very little grain One hundred and fifty bushels per acre is a minimum crop of potatoes When soil and season suits the yield should be two hundred and fifty wTw y J NEIGHS AND BRAYS lj OF THE 1 h ft9 ED1lp91I Hark from the Toombj j

swallowed his wrath and as he swallowed the alleged bam in subsequent Installments he meditated revenge on Cozart who was then laughing outside his sleeves at outwitting the man of razors But all things come to him who waits One day soon after a Urge pane of glass in the front of Toys shop was accidentally broken Now while this was a panefal accident it seemed for awhile to be a bless lug In disguise as it afforded the luckless barber an opportunity to get even with Ihe bam dealer Looking out of his shop Toy saw Cozart just starting to Madisonviila and calling to him requested him to

very calmly told him that be lately paid that amount for a socalled country ham and would also like to have his money back and so the matter stood for several days Every time Cozart mentioned money Toy discussed bams and it looked mightily like the knight of the razor held both bowers and the ace on the man of sandwiches Finally Toy told Lee that he would shave the account out with him although be was not in the habit of shaving notes Now as Cozart has attained middle age and his face is as smooth as a clean washed turnip it seemed that if shaving was hIs only show he was a long ways from his money But all this while be was thinking and he bad evolved a scheme which worked like greased lightning No he said I wont shave it out with you but I will tell you what I will do If you dont pay

public and excited the apprehension of the populaceThe two mentioned responded to the suggestions made jn the interest of public safety and went home The third however with his face very much swollen concludedhc had passed the dan ger point and declared his intention of promenading the streets until he got ready to do otherwise As the Marshals appeals were without effect that official reported to the Board of Health That body gave him their unanimous backing and1 armed with authority he took charge of the man with the mumps whom he found standing in a crowd and isolated him in the city jail A

lines in any given course Again it is advisa ble to separate the dark tobacco district in the western part of the State from the Burley district of portionLikewise the counties in the eastern and

sowingbeingportion of the month The early sown wheat attained a growth that promised to withstand any weather subjectedThisat this date early wheat is generally reported in excellent condition Late sown wheat was barely above ground at the advent of winter and the severe weather it has encoun tered both in the early and latter parts of winter has left it in a con dition that may be aptly described as a blue prospect Whole fields now appear without a vestige of growth above grpund and while a few correspondents venture the opinion that the roots are uninjured it will take some weeks of warm growing weather to develop the full extent of damage As a rule there was an ample covering of snow during the extreme cold weather of February but falling as itdid on an almost solid sheet of ice the benign effects of the protection was in a measure lost Hasjany cause ing the winter If so state cause II resulted in replies from 115 corres pondents of which number ninety seven state that wheat suffered from freeze and eighteen say it has not been appreciably damaged during the winter Heavy rains particularly in the western section is another source of ho inconsiderable damage The condition for the State as a whole compared with average years is 80 which isa loss of 14 points since December 1st For the three preceding years the condition on March ist was as follows 1898 92 1897 88 and 1896 88 The three sections separately show the following average condition as of this date Western 70 central 85 and eastern 88 The per cent of crop of 1898 still in the hands of farmers is esti mated

1898 the average price was goc and March ist 1897 the price was 84C CORN Estimates on the percentage of corn crop of 1898 still in farmers hands give the amount at 42 percent On March ist 1898 the per entof crop of preceding year in hands of farmers was 44 LIVE STOCK The trying effects of Unusually severe winter on live stock has to some extent been mitigated by the abundance of feed Still among i young stock and stock unprovided with shelter the loss has been heavy and the suffering intense The heaviest loss has been with lambs and young pigs Some correspondents estimate the loss of tbecropReupon the farmers the economy of providing ample shelter for stock during the months of bad weather The condition of the various classes of live stock averages as follows Horses 94 cattle 90

BegInning March IS Comment by Rev S II Doyle TOPIC Fellowship In Christian ncrrloo Neh Iv G 1023 The rebuilding of the wall of Jerusa lem may be taken as an illustration of tho life of tbo church in this world Wo may toe Illustrated in it many of the essential elements of successful church work not least of which is the necessity of fellowship in service cooperation In work division of labor How splendidly tho necessity and efficiency of hearty cooperation in Christian work is hero illustrated Every class had a work to do and overy ono did it in harmony with every other ono and tbo re sult was that the wall joined together completed in overy part rose before them in spite of thoimmeussness of the task and tho enemies without who con stantly threatened them Some were builders some were burden bearers some wero guards and the princes stood behind and directed the workI Every man had his place and every mnn stood in it and performed his duty DndI success was the result Such a splendid result could only havo been achieved by tho heartiest cooperation and fellow ship Wo may bo taught hero some lessons in Christian fellowship 1 Fellowship in Christian service is Scriptural This is one Scriptural illus tration and many others could bo cited Christ sent His apostles and disciples out two by two upon their preaching tours thus giving His sanction and ap proval of fellowship in Christian work After Christ had ascended the apostles usually followed the same plan Chris tianity teaches fellowship in prnyerI fellowship in burden bearing as well as fellowship in service 2 Fellowship in Christian service gives strength and encouragement The Jews woro strong because they wero united They held tholrcnemiesat bay They overcame almost insurmountable obstacles They accomplished wonders and all because unitedly they did the work Two are stronger than one When the heart of ono fails a word or act of encouragement from tho other strength ens it and thus from fellowship comes increased strength both against enemies without and discouragements within 3 Fellowship in Christian service is efficient It is so especially gives on opportunity for till to do thatI which they aro best able to do All havo not been given tho name gifts Somo in Nehomlahs timo could build some could carry burdens somo could direct some could guard and when all these qualities wero combined success ful vork was accomplished It Is the eamo today Somo are strong others weak some can sing others can pray somo can teach others can carry bur dens separated all would bo weak rind ineffective but united in harmony and In Christian fellowship and wisely di rected nil become a mighty power fur goof Lot us sea the wisdom and power of fellowship in servIce The church la the body of

the inheritance promised to Abraham and his seed Independent fI Roquefort Cheese Roquefort cheese the delight- of modern epicures is made ofa mixture of goat and sheep milk says the Philadelphia Evening Telegraph The reputation of this cheese extends luck into dim antiquity and Pliny mentioned it in his writings It is made chiefly from the milk of Larzid goats and sheep and in the records in France it is stated that in the year 1866 250 000 sheep and goats out of a flock of 400000 gave enough milk for the making of 715000 pounds of cheeseIn the manufacture of Roquefort cheese the sheep and goats are milked in the evening after their return from the pastures and after they have been allowed to rest for an hour or so rhe evenings milk is heated almost to the boiling point and then is set aside In the morning it is skimmed heated to 98 degrees and mixed with the mornings milk for coagulation The curd is well kneaded with the hands and pressed in layers into t molds with perforated bottoms A thin layer of mouldy bread is put between each layer of curd The object of this is to hasten the ripening of the cheese byt supplying the germ of the green mold peculiar to cheese The bread used for this purpose is made before the preceeding Christmas of about equal parts of sum mer and winter barley with plentyc of sour dough and some vinegar When mouldy enough it is ground and sifted moistened with water and kept from the air until used in making the cheese The curd remains jn the molds for three or four days Then they are taken to the market in Roque fort where they are sold tothe dir ferent makers af Roquefort cheese These manufacturers continue the ripeningof the cheeses by placing them in the very damp caves which abound in the precipitous walls of the limestone hills which almost completely surround the villageThe cheeses are left in the caves sometimes more than a month during which time salt and brine arc rubbed into them and they are pricked frequently with long needles to let the salt penetrate into them and also to accelerate the process of moldering Plans Approved It is learned upon good authority that Superintendent Martin of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad who has just returned from a trip to company headquarters at Louisville has succeeded in getting his plans approved for making changes and improvements in the railroadS yards etc at
