Keaioni why the Legislature Should be
Convened.
An Intmltw with the Reprt lenlaUre.
Tbere hai been a good deal laid of lata
concerning tba governor's calling an extra
session of the legislature and meeting
Hon. Juhn II. Cocbrcn yesterday the re
porter plied him with questions which
elicited tho following:
Reporter. Is It your opinion that an ex-
tra session of the eighteenth legislature wil
be called by the governor?
Mr. C I do not see how be can avoid it;
nor do 1 believe be can make his adiu'nia-
ttatlon a success without it.
as an office. The fury of "the1 flames at
this place made quick havoc ana but a
mall amount ol atock was taved. .Then
.ma th imnofiine two-story stone build
tag ot Leon Brlu on the corner of the
streets. occupied up stairs by
a family and to be occu
u hv nimsplt in a lew days for a dry
L-ouda store. Nearly all of ihe contents
were saved. The Kinnebrew flour mill and
Knight's Btore were saved only by the al-
most superhuman efforts of Major Kauktn
and the assistance ot citizens and
boarder.. The Coggin opera-house
atatalv .tni.H structure narrowly escaped
and could not have been saved except for
tba telling work that preserved it.
The cause of the tire is not yet certainly
known. It is strongly suspected to be the
work of an incendiary. It is impossible to
estimate the amount of the loss as yet. The
insurance oo all Is $27800. Had it not been
for the recent rains and the prevailing
calm the whole town must have been di-
atroved no water-works engines or (acui-
ties 'for extinguishing fire being here. Thr
H..iin limn shadowed bv smoke and
tha InLermioeling and blue curly blaze
of the burning liquors accompanied
by the roar of the bre and tbe frequent
clashes of falling buildings made the scene
one of wild magnificence seldom behold.
Tho nnhlio sauare was filled
thin mornine with the rooi-
less stocks of the many
burned out. Merchandise drugs clothing
groceries liquors and furniture were all
together. Numerous wagons have been
hauling goods all day to a more available
place for Btorage. Xne opera-bouse is tall
and barns are now being sought. Those
burned out declare their intention ol
prosecuting business as best they can entil
they can erect buildings on the old ruins.
a i onrt Bintrlnn dHRth was occasioned
by fright at the fire. Mrs. Mury Hall aged
72 was asjlsting in removing goods from
her son's bouse when she fell and passed
intn an atnmiil twooii. The much-beloved
old lady was buried this afternoon and the
family have tbe sympathy of tbe whole
community.
FKKE LAND OWNERSHIP.
Dhntoh Sept. 18.-Editor Herald -The
reply to our review of tho Herald ed-
itorial ol the 23fd ult calls lor a rejoinder
which we confess we feel little prepared o
make depending as we do upon our un-
assistated memory for facts anduthoritie".
We entered the lists in this controversy
with diffidence having waited for some one
more skilled in tbe warfare of logic than
ourself  to become tbe champion ol tbe
landholder yet notwithstanding we feel
ahaahrd at our own temerity with true
idminina nprtinacicv. we are still disposed
to rrv "scissors." We feel however that

fountain of philanthropy from which

years after obtained possession ol this

This It perhaps the earliest record of he-

Abraham and bis nephew Lot agreeing to

in order to secure that property recourse

This is a pretty picture of Jewish social
life in wbioh tbe father naturally and
rightfully dispenses a part of his proprietary

not to be considered in regard to expedi-

ot only a big shell" he continued "but
t's got a powerful big yarn that goes with
it "
The shell was certainly four feet long
large enough to serve as a bath-tub for a
smll boy and must have weighed over two
hundred and fifty pounds as the reporter
could not move it with one hand. It was

J. C. Lively of Senatobia Mississippi
sowed one acre iu millet seed from which
he raised five tons of bay worth $50. Tbe
cost of product! ju lor the same was $10
profit ot $40.
In saving seed for the next year's crop
save the best. Tbis Is true of potatoes.
Tbe little ones may do for the hogs but
save the largest and the best lor seed. -Just
at the time wben eraaB starts erow
lug in the spring; when stock that has been
fed through the winter on dry hay oats and
corn want a change then is whan a good
field of rve nroves of the greatest value.
Tbe Indiana Farmer says: "In Canada
and England tbe raising of root-crops Is an
essential part of sheep husbandry. Heie it
is not so. The reason for this is that we
can raise corn while tbe English and Cana
dlans can not. Corn iodder is an almost
perfect food tor sheep though root-crops
such as turnips rutabaeas etc can be used
with success in countries where corn ran
not be grown profitably."
New oats are not eood feed for horses
They relax the bowels and often if tbe
change from old to new is sudden tbe value
of tbe oat ration is almost entirely lost. As
tbey shrink a good deal in drying the old
oats though nominally dearer are usually
cheaper as well as better ieed.than the new
crop.
All stock that is being prepared for an
early market should be maturing now on
tbe best of everything. Whiter will be
along presently  and it will cost three times
the feed to sustain life and supply heat tbat
it does now. They will fatten now on less
tbau tbey will live on then. Keep the corn
going iLerelore.
Tne D-ory and Farm Journal published
at Wett Liberty Iowa cites as an evidence
oi the growing interest in dairy farming
the fact ot the ranid decline in the number
of beef Cittie shipped from Iowa in the last
three years. Tbat state sold in 1879 $15-
000000 worth ot cattle; in iao $yi'uoouo;
and in 1881 a trifle over $0500000. This it
is claimed is mainly due to the increased
interest in dairying achange that has been
made because it pays.
Sorghum for fattening cattle Is highly re-
commended by Dr. Kedzie.ot tne Michigan
Agricultural college. It has been found by
some wbo have tried it he says to possess
wonderful iattening properties and pro-
duces beet ot very superior quality. But
he adds that tbe torghum must be led can-
tiouslv at first until the cattle become used
to it on account of danger of tbelr eating
too freely of tbe material causingscouring
etc. Tbe seeds of tbe corn are equal iu
value pound for pound to oats or corn
A correspondent of tbe Farmers' Review
has practiced during several winters tbe
plu of keeping apples In dry ssnd poured
into tbe filled barrels after storing in tbe
cellar and finds it a decided improvement
on any other ever tried the fruit remaining
till late spring as crisp and apparently as
fresh as when first garnered. He does like-
wise witb potatoes and usea the same sand
yar alter year.
A western awlnc-breeder crossed a red
male Die unon mixed Berkshire aud Essex
bogs and from the result decided to con-
tinue the practice. The red bog bas an ex-
oentionallv strong constitution and would
doubtless greatly improve upon most other
breeds in the cross. Asiae irom mis tne
breeder savs that the meat was better than
anv other lie bad ever eaten and tbe hoes
grew and fattened aa well as tbe average of
the improved kinds.
We are not ready to recommend tbe cut-
ting of ail timber and iuel in summer but
believe tbat farmers should know wbat tbe
effect upon lumber is when cut at different
seasons. It would seem tbat tbere ia no
way in which the wood or a tree can be re-
lieved of ita saD so thoroucblv and be left
in so sound a condition as wben the sap
goes out through the leaves or through
pores during the season of full leaf.
A scientific authority remarks that facts
collected by Miss Amerod iu Great Britain
prove tnat mere tne aamnne riiien ry in-
sects is in reality enormous. Not less ihau
2000000 will befound set dowu lo aphides
in tbe country wbera tba inhabitants are
devoted to rbe ca'tle-raising industry while
tb ravages annually caused by wire-worms
weevils etc. to wheat barlev. peas been
and tares seem to range between 2 and 3
an a -re.'
An expert suggests tbat a oauo ot tar
noon tha noses ot sheen during the months
ot July and September is an effective pre-
ventive against tb attacks of annoying if
not fatal grubs. "Tbe sheep grub." h says
"is not fatal but verv disagreeable aod
doubtless bas a bad effect on tbe health of
tbe animal if anyone desires to study tbe
subject bo may find tbe grubs in many ot
the heads of tho animuls tilled io the
shambles at later months more or less luiij
developed.'
Whenever bushra of tuckers are teen
growing abont apple or pear trees.you may
know tbat tb orchard doesn't pay and
tbat tba proprietor is a shiftless owner.
Whenever a tree Is covered with scale-bark
lice it is wiser to ask what will restore
health to tb tra than wbat will kill th
lice. A pear tre whose roots are in a damp
undrained soil is the favorite borne ol tbeae
lice and destroy them as w may by liquid
applications or by rubbing aod crashing

speaker "swell behind below tbe knees as

this is wrong." The speaker held tbe pe-
culiar garment up to the astonished gazj of
the reformers and suddenly made another
astonishing discovery. There were Severn 1

Old Methods of Lightning
Young and even middle-aged people ac
customed to the convenience of the modern
luclfer-match. can hardly imagine the time
wben tbe tinder-box wi h its clumsy flint
and eteel and broad brimstone matches was
the only means of procuring a light. Some
neonle were more skillful than others In
striking a light and blowing tbe spark and
match to a name; Dat oiten on a wintry
morning it was weary work with the ser
vant who had to kindle the first fire if tbe
tinner happened to be damp or worn our
or the flint and steel in a temper. Indeed
in many bouses a eushlight waa in some
bedroom or other always burnt so that in
case of sudden illness or any disaster there
might be light ready. The eushlight hav-
ing as its home implies a rush wick about
fifteen inches long and was burnt in a bilge
perforated shade; it was the farthing rush-
iDg which very poor people were said to
use for other purposes than a lilght-light.
The picture of a half-starved seamstress in
her earret would in those days have been
v.'ry incomplete without tbe thin rush can-
dle but its flume was so feeble that 1 can
