There was a rap at the back door of a
New Auburn home where the writer wa
on Wednesday in search of information
regarding a matter of public interest, and
a very small girl entered with a tin pail.
"Marm says," said she, "that she
guessed your wash'll look like time when
it's took in. It's gettin' all dirt and
mud."
The woman made no reply but turned
her attention to the writer.
"And my ma says," continued the
little girl with the pail, ''that she'd think
you'd want to see your close reel; it's all
one sided and your clothes bangs in the
dirt."
'Yes, child," said the lady of the
house.
"And marm says that she wish't me
to say to you that there's a blind up in
your second story that's flappin', and
that your cat's over to our house an' ain't
been fed for a week, an' that your boy
Joe ain't been to school for more'n ten
days, and that if that flour you lent her
is the best you've got she don't see how
you make any bread that's fit to eat and
that she wish't you'd let me have a ball
o' butter if it is good. Marm wanted me
to say, too, that she thinks the shingles
must be leaking water into your upper
chamber on the front side."
"Seems to me," said the woman with
a forced smile, as the child went out)
"that I re got the obhgmest neighbors a
woman ever had." Lewiston Journal.
RICE VERSUS COTTON.
We notice the following telegram ad
dressed to the cotton growers of the
south by Messrs. Dan Talniage's Sods
of this city, and think that it is niott
timely and full of suggestion:
" nerever the culture m cotton is
curtailed we suggest the growth of rice,
It is adapted to either lowland or upland
-as an all round crop, is among the safest
nd most profitable of southern crops
gross results, 840 to 875 per acre; cost of
cultivation, $20 to 835: difference in
outcome due tj character of culti
vatioo or season, ihe consumption
of rioe in this country is increasing an
nually per capita and at far greater ratio
than production to meet its home demand
and were the product increased even ten
fold the surplus could be marketed abroad
at prices which would leave a handsome
margin to planters."
It appears to us that there is little use
to recommend a reduction of the area
heretofore planted in cotton unless at the
same time there be some recommendation
as to a profitable substitute. There can
be no question but what there ought to
be less cotton raised, and the fearful and
unsatisfactory results of the present year
will not be lost if they shall burn into the
mind of every planter the wisdom and
expediency of a diversity of crops. This
lesson is as yet but half learned, and the
sooner that it is fully learned, that by so
much as one raises at home he is inde
pendent of outside extraneous influences.
tne better, it may not be possible to
guarantee prosperity, but a wise diversity
of crops is certainly a guard agains1
adversity, inasmuch as it is rare that
there is an all round failure. Many of
our planter friends are now having i
practical illustration of the folly of put
ting all of their eggs into one basket It
Would seem to us that rice offered a most
profitable outcome, and we believe that
