"WHY THE ADMINISTRATION
- IS SO SROW.
Pctmaster General Vilas says
there are no less than one hundred
: Presidential cases upon his table
awaiting final action. Many of
them might have been disposed of
- long ago, if the friends of the vari-
4npplicant - would jlecido who
they want appointed. One delega
' tion will come along and speak in
. the highest terms of a certain appli
cant, and almost before the first del-
gation is out of the building, anoth
er delegation will call in reference
to the same office and present the
name of another applicant, who ap
pears to be equally as well endors
ed as the first named, applicant. It
is not unnatural for the postmaster
general to become slightly confused
as to, the . merits of the contesting
applicants. Before he has had an
opportunity to make an examina
tion of the case, he receives a com
munication from one of the delega
tions requesting that no action be
taken in the matter until they are
given another hearing. - As a mat-
; ter of course the case is often held
up to await further developments.
, In the mean time the friends of the
two aspirants for the coveted post
mastership flood the official mail
other with all kinds nf misripmpnn.
jors, and protesting against an ap
pointment being made. These con
troversies consume much ' valuable
time, and often delay an appoint

the Administration is accused of
moving too slowly.

Wrioueek xfeoy ud determining

iri 1 different1 sections: The same
suggestions, we submit to the con
sideration ."of the; Agricultural De
partment of thin State. '
Says-tbrAa and (Courier: . .
"We have no , idea that it is nec
essary or desirable to establish ex
perimental. farms -which ; shall be
owned or rented by the Department,
and . superintended bv persons
whom it employs. There ; is i
simpler and cheaper plan than this
The Departinent can select planters
who have a reputation for practical
as well as scientific larniing, ana in
vite one of these in each of the dif
ferent sections of the State, to plant
an acrs of land - in tobacco and an
acre in cotton and grain. The Da
nartment can have the soil analyzed
at ihedifferent stations, so that the
proper fertilizers can be applied.
At small expense, the department
cari furnish 'the fertilizers and seed,
and prescribe, if; considered neces
sarv, the. manner of cultivation.
The important conditions are that
the planters who undertake the ex
periments shall be men of intelli
gence and knowledge, wno will turn
to good account the information
given them, and report carefully
the result of their action. The
three acres cultivated at each station
should, if possible, be side by side,
so that those visiting the station
can readily inspect the crops. At
the end of the season, and when the
crop3 have been marketed, the com
parative value will be known, and
i i -it i mi
mucn vaiuaoie lmormauon wii
have been obtained.
It is probable that ten experimen
tal stations would be sufficient; and
we doubt that the expense to the
Agricultural Department-would ex
ceed two or three thousand dollars,
This is a trifling sum in comparison
with the advantages which can be
expected to be derived from the
plan. It will not be difficult to
limit the outlay to the amount de
signated, but, if the means can be
obtained, it will probably be found
advisable to defray the whole. ex
pense of cultivating the experimen'
tal acres, and in this e?ent the Agri
cultural Department can re-imburse
itself from the proceeds oi the ex
perimental crops, giving any sur
plus, after the payment of the ex
penses, to the planters themselves
in return for their pains in superin
tending the stations. .
Ife jsto be hoped, that the Agricul
turaiPepartment will consider the
matter favorably. It'is aa import
ant, in our opinion,-as any project
which the Department has adopted;
and it is not much to ask that
about a tenth part of the revenues
of the Agricultural Department
shall .be laid out, in the way de
scribed, for the collection of prac
tical information and the propaga
tion of knowledge among the farmers
of South Carolina." t

SHAKY.
THE ZIG-ZAG METHODS
EMPLOYED BY MER-
CENAR.Y MEN.
It is a notable fact that the people of Atlanta
and elsewhere are beginning to be thoroughly
convinced that worthless compounds become
"shaky" at all new innovations, while an hon
est preparation never fears opposition. We do
not propose to ''wipe out" others, as the field
for operation ia large, and we accord to one
and all the same privileges we enjoy. We are
not so far lost to bhsiness principles as to de
nounce any other remedy as a fraud, or imita
tion, or as. containing a vegetable poison, the
effects of which are horrible to contemplate.
The alarm need net be. sounded, for there is
ample roonj for alJL declining anti-potash, pine-
top slop-water compounds.
If one bottle of B. B. B. is more valuable in
effects than half a dozen of any other prepara
tion, we wont get mad about it. If ten bottles
of B. B. B. cures a case ef blood poison which
others could not cure at all, it only proves that
B. B. B. is far the best medicine.
20.000 bottles
of B. B. B. have been sold to parties living in
side the corporation ofAtlanta since it was
started two years ago!
Why this wonderful sale-of a new remedy in
so short a time with so little advertising?
It must be confessed that it is because B. B.
B- has proven itself to possess merit in the cure
of blood, skin and kidney diseases. Hundreds
of home certificates attest the fact of our claim
that in Atlanta and many other points B. B. B
are "on top," and will stay there. Many per
sons desire to know how the B. B. B. acts on
the system. By entering the circulation, it
modifies the vitiated blood globules, increases
the red corpuscles, antagonizes all poison, vi
talizes and regenerates the flagging forces, fur
nishes the pabulum for rich, new blood, elimi
nates all poison through the secretions, and in
creases the appetite, while by its wonderful ac
tion upon the pores of the skin, the kidneys,
liver and glandular system, all effete and im
pure matter ia speedily conducted from the
body, leaving the blood pure, fresh and heal
thy. .'"
By its magical alterative powers, B. B. B. un
loads the blood of ail impurities, unlocks the
liver,' arouses all secretions, restores nature to
its normal condition, unclonds the troubled
brain, clears and beautifies the complexion,
cheers the despondent, strengthens the feeble,
calms the disturbed nerves, and induces quiet
and peaceful slumbers. It has been in use over
twenty-five years as a private prescription in
the south. ...
It is no far-fetched, foreign-found or dream
discovered subterranean wonder, but is a scien
tific and happy combination of recognized veg
etable blood poison agents, effected after many
years of constant use and . experiment in the
treatment of .thousands of some of the most
appalling cases of scrofulous, syphilitic and cu
taneous blood poisons ever known in the state,
resulting in complete and unparalleled cures of
pronounced incurable cases.

- From the Old Dominion,
I have been a sufferer for many years from
Catarrh and Blood Taint. Atter the applica
tion of all the known remedies for such diseases,
I found mjBelf last summer on tie very verge
of the grave. Nothing seemed to do me any
good. As a last resort I commenced taking 8.
8. 8 and have taken in all 18 bottles. . Before
I had finished the second bottle I felt a decided
improvement, and am to-day enjoying most ex
cellent health better than for many years.' I
take great pleasure, therefore, in recommend
ing Swift's Specino for these diseases. .

Swamp Malaria Conquered. -
I have been using swift's Specific in my fam
ily for the past two years as an antidote for
malaria also as a blood purifier, with the most
satisfactory results. I live on the banks of the
Ouchita river, in. what ia called the swamp
country. Myself and family enjoy as good or
even better health than the average people who
live in the hill country. ; I am confident that 8.
8. 8. has banished the malarial poison from our
systems. and eonsexuently given us good health.
use it at intervals during the spring and sum

poison, and it invariably drives it out.

The engineer of the Water Works reportg this morning that he has completed a 34
hcur'n fst of the Jellico Mountain Coal. The test is as follows :
Water pumped, 2787,200 gallons; Coal consumed, 12,900 poiindo; water pumped to
100 pounds of coal, 21,606 gallons; water preasure maintained through test, 140 pounds;
head, in feet, 323 to which the water was pumped; total number of pounds raised
323 feet, 2225,737,6; million pounds raised one foot wilh 100 pounds coal, 75,079.122,
which is more than the builders guaranteed the engines to do with the best coal. Mr.
Terry reports only 760 pounds ashes taken out, and no clinker and that the fires were
not cleaned during the whole 24 hours. - From the result of the' above test I must pro
nounce the J. M. an excellent steam coal. Respectfully, -
W. G. RICHARDS, Supt. Water Works.
N. B. 8incetLe above test another has been made in which 28,7735 gallons water were
raised to 100 pounds of coal, instead of 21,606 in the first test. This shows an increase of over
7000 gallons over any other coal, a fact of itself worthy of note. ' W. Q. B.', Snpt.
