The wonderful loss to farmers brought about by the neglect to prop erly utilize the resources and to em ploy knowledge that is considered in dispensable in other kinds of busi ness is one of the causes of depression in agriculture. This in more particu larly the case in the South than else where, although much has been done within the past ivn years to check this loss. The Sct'thern people arc just beginning to appreciate the advan tages of einplohfg their other re sources than those' of cotton produc tion. In the past'the South has been top largely dependent upon the colored man and the mule. The result has been, and will continue to be, so long as they practice a one-crop system, that they will be subject to periods of discouraging depression. In other words, where the farmer put all of his eggs in one basket and meets with some accident he is confronted by the loss of his entire source of support until nature has time to produce an other crop. Should it fail a second and third time the poor farmer is left in a desperate way. In the South the wonderful resources for feeding the North upon early vegetables have not been utilized as they can be. There has been and will continue to bo a large wastage of products upon tho farm, most particularly in the failure to properly utilize cotton seed and its products. Where favorable terms with tho cotton seed oil mills can bo made it is well enough to sell the excess of cot ton seed and either exchange it cr buy cotton seed meal. The intelligent farmer, with the aid of the experiment station or the officers of the agricul tural college of his State, cm readily figure out whether it is more profita ble to sell and buy or to keep and feed or use as a fertilizer. If the far mer keeps his cotton seed he should at once provide for feeding it to stock. Cheap sheds can bo con structed to properly protect the cattle from the cold rains which are so try ing on stock in the winter, and tho manure carefully preserved in a shed will give the farmer a double profit. In fact, I might say a treble profit. For in this way, by preserving his manure in the form of a compost heap and mixing with it from time to time somo potash and a moderate supply of phosphate, he would save the profit charged by dealers in fertilizers and secure to himself the profit of the cot ton seed as a fertilizer and as a feed stuff. Besides this ho would be ablo to utilize tho hay which is produced in great quantities upon the Southern farms and only needs to be harvested and fed in order to make it profitable. The uee of kainit in a compost heap cannot be too highly recommended, a3 it preserves to the farmer h'is valuable nitrogen an'd serves a3 a preventive of waste upon tho farm. The addition of the acid phosphate makes a com plete manure that is highly satisfac tory for all kinds of crop3 and on almost all kinds of soil. We advise every farmer to do some close figuring and see if he can afford to sell hi3 cot ton seed at ten dollars a ton or ex change it for 723 pounds of cotton seed meal. It will be one of the most pro fitable rainy days' work ha ever did if ho will calculate all of profits and losses and carefully study how he could save several dollars per touby feeding stock and preparing his fertilizers at home. He may find that he is selling his birth right for a mess of pottage when ho parts with his cotton seed at prevail ing rates. Ho may hud that he caa save largely by producing more fertili zers upon the farm and by buying sim ply the potash salts and tho acid phos phate necessary to properly utilize hi3 present wastes. Stop the wastes upon the farm. Uti- ner. Prevent loss to livo stock and ( fertilizers by oxposnro to the weather and cold drenching rains. Avoid in judicious sales of valuable farm pro ducts and the purchase of fertilizers that should be saved upon tho farm. Where fertilizers are bought let them be supplemented to thoso produced upon the farm, and purchase those in gredients necessary to perfect tuo fer tilizer products of tho farm. Avoid wastage of labor by cultivating un profitable lauds and see that all culti vated land is well fertilized. Dr. Joirx A. Mieks, Ex-Director West Virginia Experiment Station.

Bradstreet's weekly trade report for the past week 6ays in part: "General trade throughout the country has pre sented rather more animation owing to colder weather and the approaching holidays. While clothiDg, dry goods, hats, shoes, notions, hardware and fancy groceries have been in a little better demand frpm both jobbers and at retail in the region tributary to Chi cago, St. Louis, Omaha, St. Joseph, St. Paul and Kansas City, the tendency of business has been to slacken. This is noticeable in iron and steel, further de pression in cotton goods, print cloths having made a new low record in price. "The appearance of a better demand for filling-in purposes has had a favor able influence at points in Tennessee and the Gulf States. On the Pacific coast the feature of business is the well-maintained export movement from nearly all ports. The lower price for print cloths is followed by a sharp reaction in wheat and a lower price for Indian corn. Oats are slightly higher and coffee has advanced, in addition to which there remains a long list of sta ples, prices of which are unchanged. The domestic grain trade continues to look with equanamity on the unprece dented large quantities of wheat export ed from both coasts week after week, the continuation of which is an evidence of an appreciation of the relation of supply to demand by the grain trade abroad. "There are250 business failures report ed throughout tho United States this week, compared with 233 last week, 350 in tho first week in December, 1800, 215 in the like week of 1805, 322 in 1894 and as compared with 383 in the correspond ing period of 1893.

Dr. Rutter and his corps of physicians succeeded only after a desperate fight j in checking the outbreak without a fa tality. As it is, some of the patients are . still in a critical condition.
