Nearly every other atvtion of the

to get a art of the new comers not
only accouuted for the present
labor famine iu that section, but in
many other way a, he aaid, had
lawn disadvantageous to the United
Htatea. The kind of labor the
South needed, he said, wan a de
tillable question.
"I think it is generally ronred

must have more labor iu the South,

go elsewhere, and there ia much
force in the miggcHtion. It ia also
auggented that the wage scale is
higher in the West thau in the
South and that the wage earner
doca not leave higher for lower
wages. It ia true farm wagea are
somen hat higher iu the eat than
iu the South, tiecause we do not
and cannot, for physical reasons,
employ on our lauds and in our
crops aa much machinery a they
do, and because for other reasons
our farm laltor ia not aa eflicieut,
but this comparison of wage acalea
ia not the true text, nor ia it fair to
the South, because, w hile the wage
system obtains in the Went, it ia
not the system iu the Mouth, eioept
to a very limited extent The sys
tem el most universally in practice
in the South ia what ia known as
the share plan. The lard cwuer
furnishes the land, house to live iu
and fuel, horse to cultivate crop
and fissl for him, farming imple
meiita and seed; the tenant dooa
the work and has one half of rropa,
or, if the landlord furnishes) only
laud, house and fuel, the tenant
gets two thirds rrota, and iu some
sections three fourths of the cotton.
"A tenant farmer under this
plan with the aunie industry, fru
gality, and an equal amount of
work will, I believe, ordinarily
earn more iu the South than he
could under the wage system iu the
Went. Jn a good year he would
earn much more and iu the truck
ing regions he would earn many
time nun e, to say uothiug of en
joying a large degree of Independ
ence, with this great additional ad
vantage that in a few years lie can
have laid aside enough to buy a
farm for one-tenth of what it would
coat iu the Weal. Neither need he
fear the btigliear of negro competi
tion, because it would not be a com
petition between wage earner at

lie the same competition that he, in

if hia farm were located in any

Cy Watson on Capital Punishment
Mr. J. ('. McNeil, the brilliant
erne and prose pis-t of. the Char
lotte Observer, had a la.y dav talk
with Cy Watson the other day and
says of it :
Mr. Watson lieheves that iu
fifty years there will not lie any
more capital punishment iu the
hi ted Slates. From the time just
before the American devolution,
when ordinary thieves were drawn
and quartered and their quarters
tacked up on trees by the highway,
wlieu every circuit judge came
home to boast of the numlcr of
men he had had hanged on his
ride, he traced punishment of hu
mauity in our laws to the present
line, when capital piiuishmeiit fol

repulsive and brutal as possible.
hanging (lis uo good to the
community. In a fortnight after
the event it is virtually forgotten
and seldom referred to. It deters
nobody from crime.
"But if you take the murderer
and put him into a dungeon with
grating tin high, it will lie us it
a ghost were abroad. Whoever
paMHca by will be awed. He will
go home to his family and talk it,
saying, 'Just to think of that poor
fellow down in that dungeon! lie
never is MWiuitted to see the face
or hear the voice of a human being
beaidc his keeper. Sunlight and
rain, the seasons, the kindly goasip
of men and womeu, they are all
one to him and all a vain desire.
It ia death iu life.' They will not
forget that criminal in a fortnight,
uor as long as he lives."
No, they wouldn't forget him
in a fortnight, but in nUiiit six
mouths they would tie so sorry for
hliu that they would, every son of
'em, sign a petition to get him par
done I, and some lawyer would
take it to the governor and, with
tears in his eyes, tell what a good

There is no reason why the far
mer who have plenty of gran
range should not keep geese aud
increase their incomes at a very
little cost. Nearly every farmer has
some outlying land near hi build
ing, which could lie utilised to
good advantage by devoting it to
goose culture.
Profits in Raising Qeese.
The only time you have to fewl
any gram is in winter, and then
very little is required to keep them
in good breeding condition. Fi-ed
a little oats, cut clover hav, fishier
oyster shells, and plenty of water
and a little corn at night on very
cold day, and your gecae w ill Is
iu the best of condition when the
breeding season oieus.
The price of geene is alsiut It
ceut per miiiiii1, aud from that 01
to '.0 cents, according to quality
Those that are known as Mongrel
geese demand the higher price.
The Mongrel gec are the result of
crossing the w lid Canada gtsise with
the All lean. This produce a line,
large and highly - llavorcd table
fowl, and thi variety of geese
bring the highest price when
proiierly raised and uicely present
ed for table.
Raising the Goslings.
(ieese will lay Irom fifteen to
thirty eggs in a season. It is ill
wav better to allow the goose to
hatch her owu egg. When then
are more eggs than she can well
cover, they can be hatched under
chicken hens, setting the lieu the
same time the goose is set and turn
ing over the goHliiigs to the goose
us soon as hatched and let her care
for them, as they will do uo good
with a hen for a mother.
Itoiled rice aud hominy are good
feed for young gosling. Hut never
feed them whole corn of any kind.
Ihe food should all lie mixed or
mash food, not wet but crumbly,
with Iota of vegetables boiled ami

How the Beef Trust Controls Trade

'Suppose you are paying an ear

of "The (lreatet Trust in the

II the drover accepts the oiler, well

walks his way serene he doe not

uiotto.
"And behind him moves the
buyer for Swift & Co., and he goes
languidly among the offering, and
nothing he sees suits him. And if
the drover become insistent and
will not let go without a bid,
Swift's mail bids, but it is at just
the same price as Armour's, al
ways the same. And after him may
come the head buyer for Morris,
and he is ol the mind of Swift's
man, exactly the same. And alter
him may come the head buyer for
the National Tacking Company.

Fattening for flarket.
When fattening time comes the
young geese that are intended for
market should lie confined in very
close quarters, with good shelter,
and fel liberally on fattening foods
of all kind. A good diet to start
them with is oat uieal mixed with
water or milk; after this some bar
ley ineiil or buckwheat meal may
be added to the oats. Small Irish
potatoes, or anything iu the vege
table line, can be boiled and fed.
All these mash fiKsl should lie fed
warm, but not hot. And only feed
enough to fill them, leaving none
in the vessel.
Buy an Incubator.
So much for geese; now a word
on another subject
With the aid of a good incuba
tor, it is possible to bring forth a
greater nuiulier of chickens with
les worry thau is required to look
after fifteen to twenty setting hens.
The advantages of using an incu
bator are many; it is ready to "set"
whenever needed; don't have to
wait until it gets "broody," It
will do the work of dozens of hen
in hatching, and isn't half the
trouble. It starts the chickens oil'
free from lice and consequently has
advantage here over hutching with
hens. The incubator is inili.-qten-sable
to those who want to hatch
chickens for market and make it a
paying busiuca. Two gallons of
oil will run a JiKI-egg machine
through the twenty-one days of in
cubation, and another gallon will
run the brooder until chicks are
largo enough to do without heat at
light. The greatest advantage
are having your chicks free from
lice, and having an entire brood of
one or two hundred entirely under
your control.
Value of Bones for Feeding Poultry.
A great many people who are
raising poultry, either for profit or
home consumption, apear to have
overlooked the great feeding value
of boues, either green or dry. No
matter whether the fowls are eon
fined or. not, they are sure to lie
benefited with a moderate quantity,
way three ounces per beu a week,
aud epecially in winter and at

Why Suffer from Rheumatism?
Why mtfur from rheumatism when one
application of Chamberlaia'tPainllalm
will relieve the pain? The quick relief
which ttiis liniment affords makes rest

worth many times its cost, Many who
have used it hoping only for a short
rebel from suffering have been happi
ly surprised to find that after awhile
tlie relief became permanent. Mrt.V.
