Is the consumption of . intoxicating
liquors decreasing? This is a question
that commands answers both affirma
tive and negatiye. One day you read
by ooe man's statistics that the drink
bill of the nation is decreasing and ths
next day you read by another man's
statistics that it is increasing. Whetb
er decreasing or increasing there is no
question about the enormous cost to
the country. If what is spent for
drink were put into schools, there
would be no need of extra taxation any
where to raise the money for securing
good schools. The very life of tbo
children of the land cries out against
the traffic and the eyil.
There will be a mid-winter exposi

s)me nice things to say about North
Carolina's exhibit to be given there.
Among other things it says :
"North Carolina is one of the richest
States in the Union, and will make sn
exhibit at Charleston that will cost
from $10,000 to $15,000. The exhibit
is already nearly available, the State
Department of Agriculture having de
voted for years a gieat deal of intelli
gent attention to the establishment of
a State Museum in which is assembled
specimens of , nearly every mineral,
wood, crop and manufactured product
in the State. Mr. Bruner, who has
been engaged in the work of makitg
these collections lor the last 20 years,
and Prof. Holmes, who enjoys a nation
al reputation in his special field, have
aiready gone into the work with en
ergy and enthusiasm and promise that
the North State will make a brilliant
display at Charleston. The Governor
is neartily in sympathy with the enter
prise, a'nd the money for making the
exhibit is available. Philadelphia ana

which they will find it to their interest
to cultiyate. We shall have to work
very hard if South Carolina is not to
be beaten on its own soil by the other,
and in some respects, the greater Car
olina." "A Christian theatre" is what Rev.
Charles M. Sheldon, of Topeka, Kan
sas, author of "In His Steps," thinks
the country ought to haye. It will be
remembered that Mr. Sheldon ahout a
year ago took charge of the Topeka
Capital, a daily paper in Topeka, and
illustrated to the world how he
i
thought Jesus Christ would run a
daily paper. His paper was watched
with scrutiny by the people of the
whole country ; and for our part, beg
ging his pardon for the presumption
in saying it, we could not find any
thing in Mr. Sheldon's .paper much
more. Christ-like than may be found
in The Commonwealth every week,
and in a number of other good, clean,
moral secular papers we know.
As to the theatre, we believe that all
plays and performances that are not
perfectly clean and hightoned ought to
be kept out of all our' playhouses any
way, and we are inclined to believe
witn Dr. Poteat that church members
and others every where can bring this
about by refusing to patronize any
thing but what is such.

Dr. E. M. Poteat, brother of Prof.
W. L. Poteat, ot Wake Forest, thinks
that Mr. Sheldon's idea would make
playhouses of our churches and stimu
late the study of dramatic art in our
theological seminaries. . He concludes
thus : , ' - "

SWEET POTATOES.
HINTS ABOUT THEIR CULTURE.
One of The Best Crops of The South.
Harvie Jordan, in Atlanta Journal.
Sweet potatoes are one of the most
important crops grown on southern
farms, an-l stands second to none m
usefulness among the smaller side crops.
In 1890 Georgia stood a close second to
North Carolina, which held the lead in
potato production at that time. The
census of 1900 will doubtless place this
State ahead ot all others, as the acreage
in sweet potato culture has been large
ly increased in Georgia within the past
ten years. In 1890 the yield of sweet
potatoes in Georgia amounted to
5,616,000 bushels;
New Jersey is the most northerly
State in which this potato can be cul
tivated witn any degree of success.
In Europe the sweet potato is almost
unknown, and there are efforts now be
ing made to ship our sweet potatoes to
England and France to be sold as a
vegetable luxury to the people on the
other side of the Atlantic. It is be
lieved a good export trade could be
built up, and if present efforts are suc
cessful a tremendous impetus will be
given the sweet potato industry in the
South for export trade. The only se
rious trouble now is to get them across
the ocean without damage and to secure
a reasonable rate of water freight.
With a heavy foreign demand, coupled
with good home markets, many farmers
will be able to profitably enlarge their
sweet potato acreage and thereby
cut down unprofitable incieasejd cot
ton acreage. '
making bed for slips.
It is now rather late to discuss the
methods of bedding the tubers to grow
the slips which will be used later on for
transplanting. However, it may be
that some have not yet bedded their
seed potatoes, while others may have
bedded and lost the seed by rotting
and will have to ,re-bed. The plan
which 1 have pursued for many years
has been uni formally successful and '
has always given me slips ready f or
transplanting in from ten to fifteen
days alter bedding. I have never lost
any potatoes by rot, either in tbe hill
during winter, or after bedding out in
the spring. I prefer the hotbed by
first laying of tbe size plot needed
sufficiently large to receive all the po
tatoes to be bedded.
A plot three by six feet is usually
large enough for two bushels. First
enclose tbe space with six inch planks
set up on end and nailed or staked se
curely together at the ends. Take out
the earth on the inside of the enclosure
to a depth of three or four inches and
with a garden fork loosen up the sub
soil six to eight inches deeper. Spread
on a thin layer ot leaves or straw to
assist in future drainage, and on top of
the litter spread manure nicely pulver
ized to a depth of four inches. Level
tbe manure and pack it down firmly,
next covering it with a layer of eoil
from two to three inches in thickness.
It is best to let this stand for 24' hours
before spreading on the potatoes. In
the fall of the year I always select tho
small potatoes for seed and bank them
separately. v
If, however, the seed potatoes are
large they may be split in half, placing
tbe cut side down. Be careful in bed
ding the potatoes not to allow them to
touch each other and put none in the
bed that have decayed ends on them.
Next spread a thia layer of straw oyer
the potatoes to hold them In place
later on when the slips are being drawn.
Lastly cover with rich soil to a depth
of at least two inches and tbe bed is
complete. If rains are not sufficiently
frequent to keep the bed moist water
must be applied, preferably the soap
water from the wash pot, which is
usually convenient at least once a week.
Fresh stable manure for tbe bed is best
and should never be pnt in deeper than
four inches for fear of overheating.
Usually about 2,500 slips can be se
cured from one bushel of seed potatoes
and about two bushels of small pota
toes will furnish enough sets - or slips
for one acre of ground, provided two or
three drawings can be obtained. To
plant an acre from the first drawing
this quantity should be doubled. The
larger the potatoes the greater the
number of bushels required for bedding.
Sometimes the growing vines are
clipped off in the field and transplant
ed and usually good results are obtain
ed, particularly if a patch is wanted of
small potatoes for the pigs in tbe early
falL But it is not advisable to prune
the vines too closely, as it will injure
the yield of the parent plants.

ed makes the heayiest yield of potatoes.
Ordinarily fertile soil properly manured
is preferable to very rich land. Except
in soft sandy soils the land should be
broken deep and close, and harrowed
to a finely pulverized tilth. Particu
larly should this be done with our stiff
olay lands. After good breaking, lay
the rows three to four feet apart with a
long shovel and distribute the fertili
zers. It barnyard manure is used, dis
tribute in the furrows from four to
five tons per acre. If commercial fer
tilizers are to be used a good formula
can be made up of the following :
Cotton seed meal 300 pounds.
Acid phosphate 250 pounds.
Kainit M 300 pounds.
This to be applied to one acre. , The
sweet potato requires, to perfect its
best growth, about twice as much pot
ash as nitrogen, and more nitrogen
than phosphate acid. If we know the
plant food constituents ol any crop we
know best how to fertilize it, and this
can only be properly determined by
practical experiment or analysis. Af
ter the fertilizer has been applied, mix
it well with the soil by plowing in the
furrow a time or two with a small
scooter. With a twister or turn plow
make tbe list,' and on the ridge so
formed set out tie slips. The list
should not be high, because heavier
yields will be made when the potatoes
are cultivated as nearly on a level as
possible. It is preferable to transplant
tbe slips on fresbly plowed ground, and
to transplant in dry weather, pouring a
teacupful of water in the hole made for
tbe slip, rather than wait for a rain.
After a rain the ground is apt to be too
wet, or not sufficiently moist, and H too
wet tbe tramping on clay lands is apt
to injure tbe soil.
planting and cultivating.
The slips should be dropped on tbe
ridge about eighteen inches apart,
certainly not nearer.
One Hand can follow behind with a !
long stick to press the roots in the soil.
Pour a little water in tbe hoie beside
the roots and press tbe earth together
again. In this way two hands can do
the .work rapidly. In two or three
days after planting the middles should
-be-broken and the top soil around tbe
plants knocked off with the hoe.
Plowing and hoeing should be done
often enough to keep the' field and
plants free from weeds and grass.
After tbe first plowing in breaking
the middles all future cultivation
should be shallow. As a rule, sweet
potatoes should be plowed about four
times and hoed twice. If it is not de
sired to fertilize as heavily per acre as
the amounts stated, then reduce the
supply, but endeavor to secure the
proper proportions according to the
formula. In the early fall wa will dk
cus8 the best plans in use for harvest
ing and storing tbe crop. Every
farmer should have at least an acre in
potatoes this year.
Tried to Bunco the Clergymen.
''One morning a maa came to me
with a letter written on stamped paper
and signed with the name of a clergy
man of my church in a town in Massa
chusetts," writes Rer. David M. Steele
of "The Lovers of a Cheerful Giver," in
tbe April Ladies' Home Journal. "His
story, told in great embarrassment, was
that be had run away from home.
According to the letter his aged mother
was dying with grief, and the appeal
ol his rector was to the man to come
come back at once. The minister's
check for eigbt dollars, drawn on a
bank in this same town, was Inclosed
with which to pay car fare. He was
distressed and was anxious to go, but
tie difficulty was he had been in New
York only five days, knew no one, and
could not be identified at any bank.
Would I cash the check? I told him
to come back in a conple of hours, and
meantime I telegraphed inquiries to
the Reverend C . . . . The answer came,
'Do not know any such man.' When
the fellow returned he was arrested,
and In his pocket a neatly. l:ept memo'
rindum book was foun,d containing ihe
name of nearly every clergyman in
Chicago, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Pitts
burg and Philadelphia. This had ben j
his route. On each page of the b xk
there were four columns, headed,
Name, Date, Amount and Remarks,'
and in these were such entries as,
'Reverend R. . . ., $4.00. Got after an
hour's work. 'Reverend S... No

TURNING JjfflfiW p.
Coming from the North and West.
THE OPENING UP OF THE SOUTH.
Lynn Roby Meet ins in Saturday Evening Post.
We are to see in the n9ar future a
graat change In the distribution of im
migrants in this country. For a
quarter of a century the tides have
been flowing to the West and the
Northwest, but great numbers are
henceforth sure to go to the South.
This rich part of our country rich in
the way of minerals and soil has
attracted far more people from other
sections than it has settlers from Eu
rope. Several facts explain tbe rea
son. In tbe first place the trans-coti-linental
railroads have had their agents
busily at work in Europe, and have
operated in connection with the steam
ship companies. The immigrant lb
buying his ticket in Europe generally
bought it to some Western or North
western point. Another thing Was tbe
large number of lynchlngs in the South
which, being reported in European
newspapers, gave the impression that
in the Southern States life was not
secure and property was not protected.
These influences are passing away.
The South itself has for some tinse
been taking steps to show how fake
the general inference is. As a matter
of fact people liye as securely in the
Southern States as in any other section
of the world. Tbe few cases of lynch
ing are horrible, but they do not por
tray the actual conditions of tbe dif.
lerent States of the South.
The industrial branches Have done a
superb service in showing the oppor
tunities open in the South, especially
in the way of manufacturing, and they
are still addibg to their usefulness iu
this direction. But bet of al', probab
ly, in the way of the new influences, is
the coming of practical business men
from Northern and 'Western sections.
Go to a Southern city to-day and ycii
will find these men not only making
money rapidly but taking active part
in the social and political life. Then,
too, the large profits which the cotton
mills and other .factories are making
will attract in greater measure these
who have money to invest and those
who wish to utilize the opportunities.
It is in its way a fine thins: that the
Southerners are to hold a West Indian
Exposition at Charleston, South Caro
lina. There is no purpose, so far as
the managers have expressed themsel
ves, to do anything but to encourage
the commerce of the West India Is
lands to trade with the Southern
States. But when the exhibits are
shown we predict that there will be a
curious.result.
The South will show that it can pro
duce practically everything that tbe
West Indies are railing, and that it
can show manufacturing products
equal to the best of the North.
The exposition at Atlanta years ago
was a success in demonstrating to the
country tbe beginnings of the new life
of the South. Bad management made
the New Orleans Exposition a failure,
but tbe other expositions that followed
it had their meed of prosperity, and it
is quite likely that Charleston will
reap tbe rewards ot its enterprise.
The figures ot the growth of the
South since tbe Civil War seem moie
miracle than tact. In many States
values have increased tenfold ; in some
particular spots a hu ndred and a thous
and fold. There was a time, not many
years ago, when the South received a
setback second only in its disastrous
effects to the Civil WV, and tbat vas
through the outbreak of speculation
and the almost universal exploitation
of laad booms. But all that has gone
The people bave recovered and have
settled down to the normal, and now
the growth is legitimate development,
and thus all who, wanting to change
their abode, have gone there are find
ing out that it is a goodly place, in
habited by goodly people.
