?The disturbance in Mexico is not

things their way in Congress.
Tut:UK is never nothing to gain by
trading one good man for an ther.
. It isn't, question of what you
thing ?r what I tiling but what
the I'Koi'le think.

Tin: l-ft policy we have ever seen I
exercised is that; of letting well J
enough ai'me. " ?
I)ox't ever .condemn a man ft*
that he has pot had a sufficient
chance to do
_Tiie people seem to waul to elect 1
the I". S. Senators by the vote of liie'M
people, why not let therii do it? |i

The world is full 'of people who J
think that if it don't turn exactly in I
accord with "their ideas the whole I
universe is wrung. 11
Tiie bluest mistake the South i
> i
has tver made in its political career j'
is iu ctangiug her representatives iu j 1
Congress ami Senate so often. j i
If tlieie is-auyttung ?r should up.-! I
bold it is our churches and ourjj

better Louisburg. 11
Thk.ke is always a loss connected j;
with a change of one official for ano- j,

cally wrong with the official. Ex- ,

Cultivation of CottonWe
are in receipt of the follow-1
ing letter from Mr. C\ K. Hudson,
which may be of interest to many
of our readers:
We take it for granted that land
where cotton sliould*be coming up
by this time has had a real deep and
thorough plowing and some harrowing
the same day to pulverize the
clods and make a good seed bed.
This is important. Xo\v for the
cultivation of the crop, we contend
that there are no impliments better
or more economical than good,
round toothed weed ere or other form
of light harrow. Dtr^m?t wait for
the seed to come up to start the
work. Go by conditions of the soik ;
After ewry go oil rain, or i.t leaSi (
n .? seyeu or ten days, the we?d?T
should be run over voung plants.
The fingers or teeth of these imple-j
mep/s work in among the plants and 1
thus get rid"of weeds and grass that j
would-later have to be gotten out!
by expensive band-hoeing. Such
implements furthermore are Ceo-1
Domical because a man and a mule^
can easi. v cultivate from ten to twelve
iicres t^r day with them. On a|
lighter sandier soil a weeder should
be used. On heavier or clay soils |
seine form of spike toothed harrow
is ectsary. Usually it is better to [
slant the teeth backward just slightly.!
These implements lunv h? run Avor i
both the- corn and cotton from tu g i
to four times or until the plants are
Several inches high. Many farmers
believe that the Mnpieuieuts will!
root up-or destroy the young plants, !
but such is nut the ca-e.
With these implements, as with,
jther tilings, there is always the i
proper and best time to use them.:
Very often we see fanners place!
rocks or chunks on their harrows or j
sveu ride upon them, in order to |
force them into the ground. This
ihows a great lack of intelligence. *
If run immediately .after a rain, as f
should be done, the impliment* will j
lo the work properly without any
heights on theru. If weights have i
:o be used it shows, that the farmer v
las waited too long after the J
rain to run tliern. Under such 1,
sonditions thj implements not do {
nuch good. By that time a crust*
:ias toriued on the land which shows
hat a great deal of the moisture lias
ilready evaporated, the voting
?ra^s lias- -e*3*Te through and lias
gotten a hold on the sod so that
ffhiie some ot it is rooted .up, the
j&lancdi* cultivated and teally grows
ill the .faster.
What we should, do to dislodge
th'j sprouting seed m the soil before
they ey?r slr-w themselves
ibove t;:?e ground. T h isTfc iHe-*.!111
