lasting iiuprpfnion iiHn my mind.
Hitting :neYening in his room and enjoy
ing at onoo his ipmint humor and his
fragrant Hnrann, I remark!, "Captain,
one of the old proverbs recites that tliere
is no short road to wealth,' but you hare
found one. Von are still a young man, com
paratively, and are quoted a multi-millionaire."
''"Yes," he said, "and of all the un
true savings some of the proverbs, pop
ularly upposd to embody the wisdom of
the ages, are the mot false and misleading.
Look, lor a moments over the lit of
wealth v men whose fortunes amount to $5(t.-
000 and upward, and point out tome, if you
can, one sintle indiviilual who has not ae
v '- ' '-'s money by some short road to
wealth."
"iue days of man are few, and time Is not
given in this ase of t!je world for men to ac
cumulate much wealth except by means of
special openings, and by tnkingatlvsntagpof
the nigh cuts." "You may be right," 1 Slid,
'but where one man succeeds in reaching his
goal by a cross country road, do not the
many fail" "No," said he, "Didn't I fee
you starting out yesterday by the main road
to the camp on the other side of the moun
tain?" "Yea." I said. "Well." he replied,
'you could have ttken the trail over the
bills, saved pro ably two hours' walking,
and reached the camp in absolute safety and
certaintv, only you did not know of the
trail. It is just so in business, the man that
wants to travid with an ox team and ride in
the wagon, must go by the big road, while
the fellow who goes by the trail will get
there first, an I if there is only one supper to
be had at the station the cross country
traveler is the one who will eat it. Take
my own expt rlcnce, which is simply an il
lustration ot the way every fortune lias been
made. 1 was keeping a lit lie store here an 1
barely 'inakn tongue and buckle meet,'
when I hsd an opportunity to get hoi 1 of a
block of stck in the then infant Comestock
Mi lies. '1 chewed it over" for three days
and deoided to take it in, and that
move lead naturally to all that 1 have done
since, and proved the foundation of my for
tune. I bought more stock, as I had
money ; bought stock iu other good mines,
and before I knew it 1 was well Axed."
"Hut," I said, "prices here arc so high thnt
there is little chance tor a man ot small
means." "Thai's true," he replied, "hut
there are plenty of good properties about
here, and their success is ontv a question of
means and good management. Then, too,
if you want t') do something in mines, 1 will
tall you of a Held where you can do better
than here, and one that in my opinion is the
. best on the American contiiteut. 1 should
have gone myselt to it if 1 had not been so
heavily interested here that I could not get
way. I refer to the gold region of North
Georgia. 'There is the flrt, un I, as 1 said
before, I think the best mining region in this
country." "Why," I said, "is not mere
heard about it?"' "Because,"' he replied,
"planting was the great urjsorbiug industry
of theSouta before the war. 'That region
during the war was the battle ground, and
miners were lorco.i into the West, where, in
the meantime, the centre of the industry
has become ostahli.-hed. In Georgia you
can get hold of mines on the basis of 1100,.
000 that in the West would be worth
million, and to make them success
ful you only neel money to operate
and efficient management. 'There you can
work out doors every day in the year; labor
which is high here is cheap there; fuel and
water are abundant, and the ores generally
in larger bodies, equally as rich or richer
than ours, and the cost ot mining, owing to
the softer walls about the veins and lower
1 wages, is less than one-quarter of the cost

turally I was interested to look up the

stock quoted at b. CO per share in the early
days o. operations told soon alter as high as
1?8 ) per share, and that upwards of HtXl,

holders. To a knowledge of these facts, and a sub.
sequent thorough acquaintance wiih the
(Georgia gold region, lncu my friend, the
Captain, has not overestimated, may ba di
rectly attributed the formation of the At

GALLOWAY AND ANGUS. CATTLE.
There is considerable- difference be
tween Galloway and Angus cattlo,
although both are black and hornless.
The former belong to the west coast of
Scotland, the latter to the east coast and
the neighborhood of the city of Aber
deen, whence they are called sometimes
Aberdeen or Aberdeen-Angus cattlo.
These are finer in form and hair than
the Galloways, which have long, silky
hair and a stouter build. Both are good
beeves, but the Angus are the better
milkers and givo exceedingly rich milk.

THE COW STALL.
Tho cow stall is haviug much atten
tion and ingenuity lavished upou it, but
the horse worries along with the most
objectionable kind of imprisonment in
the narrow quarters where ho is fastened
in a painful manner. A few days ago a
itnblo was burned, and a valuable horse
was slowly roasted to death, because
held by a chain that could not be
loosened or cut. Imprisonment in chains
Is a refinement of cruelty awarded to
pirates and the most atroctouj criminals;
snrl this because of the extreme torment
of it. It breaks the heart of a sagacious
horse and is the cause of thoso unavail
ing protests, the constant kicki ng and
pawing eloquent remonstrance against
the cruelty. Chicago Sun.
BOWISO RYB.
Rye is a crop easily raised and is sub
ject to fewer casualties than wheat and
grows freely on soils thai will not
produce remunerative crops of other
grains. It may often be profitably sown
In tho fall on light soils as a kind ot
supplementary crop which may be used
for winter pasture when the ground is
frozen, aud also be cut for coiling in
eirly spring, when the green stubble
can be turned under as a fertilizer for a
coming crop. On ground well adapted
to the culture of the sweet potato rye is
an excellent crop to precede it, and,
whether pastured or cut for soiling, tho
remains of tho rye when plowed under
will bo of considerable benefit to the
root crop. Then, if equal care is taken
to turn under the sweet potato . vines
alter tne harvesting, successive crops
may be raised with but little fertilizing
material other than what is furnished by
the rye and the potato vines. The
latter contaiu much fertilizing matter,
which, if all saved, will go a good ways
toward making up for what is carried oil
in the tubers. The trouble in such coses
often is that the rye is so promising in
its appearance in the spring that the in
ducement to keep it a few weeks longer
for the grain and straw is too strong to
permit of its being plowed under for
green manure. While the amount of
fertility derived from the green rye
would not bo large, the cost of the seed
would be small, and the seeding would
bs done at a time when farm work is
not pressing. It would therefore seem
that such a use of land at a season when
it would otberwiso be unemployed might
often be advisable.--New York World.
CUTTING OTP THE BLOOMS.
The old fancy thnt cutting oil the
blooms of potatoes will increaso tho
weight and quality of the tubers seems
to have broken out afresh, but careful
experiments made in England aud Swit
zerland disprove this. The theory was
given to the world by a German ex
perimenter, who published the results of
a series of experiments which showed
that a considerable gain in the weight
and quality of the tubers resulted in
cutting off the blooms.
An account of a series of experiments
made by an intelligent Englishman seem
to be so thorough that it is worth while
to give his results. His expetiments ex
tended over a period of three seasons,
with but one variety, Paterson's Vic
toria potaso, a profuse bloomer, and at
that time in general cultivation in Eng
land. In no single year was there any
difference in the quality and weight of
the potato, and the average results
showed that there was no gain derivable
Irom this operation.
Thorough experiments were made In
Switzerlaud to test -the truth of this
theory. The many varieties of potatoes
grown in that country were subjected to
the experiment. The test was carried
through several sea-ions in order to make
the result more accurate. At the close
ol the experiments the conclusion
reached did not corroborate the theory
advanced by the German experimenter.
The Euglishman, after reviewing the
experiments made in Switzerland ami
those by himself, draws this conclusion
"This system, therefore, is of no use to
us while we have our present varieties of
potatoes, no matter what it may be else
where, ana II properly tested it will iu
all probabilities be found to be of little
valuo anywhere. American f armer.

The cost of feeding a thoroughbred

The farmer who raises hogs the flesh
of which is fine will be able to get more

All farmers do not use coal, but those
who do can make good use of the ashes,
It is well known that excellent walks can

them. They correct the acidity of the
pigs stomach, and do a vast amount of
good.
The Berkshires are one of the oldest
breeds in existence, and one of their
drawing cards is a disposition to take on

ABOUT COOKING MEATS.
Tbo orthodox rule for the cooking ot
meat, fish and fowl is to allow a quarter
of an hour to every pound; yot this ro
cipe needs t3 be niixe'd with brains.
Some families like rare, others well-done
meats; again, a joint may be unusually
thick or retnatkably thin. Again, full
grown and mature meats, such as beef
and mutton, are best with the red gravy
oozing from them ; while immature, or
white meats, such as lamb, veal, pork,
etc., are absolutely dangerous unless
done through to the bono. A good rule
is to allow twelve to fifteen minutes, ac
cording to the taste of the family and
the thiciincss of the joint, for the cook
ing of every pound of beef and mutton;
fifteen to eighteen minutes for the cook
ing of every pound of pork, veal, lamb,
bam, bacon, fish and every kind of
fowl.
Accidents happen, however. The
oven may be too hot or too cool, the lire
too slow andwhat not. So a cook
should learn to know by the appearance
of the meat itself when it is sufficiently
cooked. How can this bo donel By
carefully observing the appearance of the
meat around the centre bone or bones.
If the learner bo in doubt, the blade ot a
knife can bo run iu about half an inch
nt the bone, aud the meat slightly raised
and carefully examined for a moment or
two. After one or two trials this will
be found to be an infallible method. It
is quite right that next to the bone beef
and mutton should be red and juicy, but
if the beef be blue or the mutton has
that strange raw look peculiar to mutton
that has just felt the heat of the fire, tho
joint needs a little more cooking-; while
meats should be whito, even to tho bone,
with the exception, perhaps, ot lamb,
which many people prefer with a little
pinky juice oozing through.
Fish Fish is not eatable till the flesh
separates easily from the bones. By
running a knife in a little way, say un
der the fins, so as not to spoil the ap
pearance of the fish, this can be judged
of.
Chops, Steaks or Cutlets An inch
thick mutton chops or steak, put over a
clear fire on a piping hot gridirou, gen
erally takes about ton minutes to cook;
pork chops and veal cutlets a little longer
but the rule oi finding out whether they
are cooked or not by examining the bono
also holds for them.
Turkeys, Chicken and Fowl of all
Kinds Look between the leg and the
body of the fowl, and 'f necessary, slit
the skin a little with a sharp knife, aud
if the flesh there be still raw looking the
bird is not cooked enough.
Salt Meats Salt meats are not so
easily tested as fresh meats, yet even
here look at the bone. Beware of al
lowing the meat to cook so long that it
raises itself from the bones, as it were;
for theu it is what is graphically known
as being "done to mi's." New York
I Recorder.

very important. If you give brandy or

him. The heart has to be kept quiet. You
don't want an increased supply of blood to

THt MALION LIQUOR INPLCCKCK.
The St. Louis Evangelist, in a very sug

"There is not another power in existence

blood. Every day brines wife murders by
drunken husbands; shooting affrays caused

and blood due to liuuor. In 18H1, according
to a high Mcense journal, there were 11-W
murders in this country caused by liquor.
"Two hundred and forty thousand saloon-

There is a marked increase in drunkenness

were clearly due to alcliolic excess. A nie
ical committee is now sitting in London to
devise more effectual means of dealing with
drunkards than treating them as criminals.
Sending them repeateoly to prison has no
reformatory effect. A case is cited ot a wo
man who recently died iu Marylebone work
house, at the age of forty-eighty who bad
been convicted ot drunkenness 2UU times.
It is proposed to put chronic cases under

THE ALCOHOLIC DAN'OKR.
Alcohol is, in an emergency, a conspicuous
factor of dauger to the individual and to the
community. A recent significant recog
nition of this fact occurred at Homestead,
l'enn., at the critical juncture of the contest
between the Pinker ton men and the strikers.
The local officials were confessedly power
less to control, and for the time being tbo
affairs of Homestead wera under the direc
tion of the leaders of the great strike. Thou
sands of workmen were unemployed and
under great excitement. Deadly shots were
tired by the ontestauts on both sides. Dur
ing this great emergency, we are told, the
saloons were ordered closed. tvnen the
military assumed command, and the imme
diate danger of contlict was lessened, the
saloon surveillance was relaxed and the
usual drinking of intoxicants began again.
The exiieriened of our own and other
countries in cholera visitations of former
years, has demonstrated conclusively that
those who use intoxicating beverages are
much more predispose 1 than abstainers to
cholera Infection, and thit it is much more
likely to prove fatal in such cases. It is true
that we are separated from the present
cholora-stricken districts by thoustnds of
miles of water, but between the French
ports and our own there are continuous fer
ries, and they compass the distance, inter
changing passengers and their effects, in i
tingle week. As "la grippe" developed ii
ail countries, so also may ths cholera. The
prudent thing to do is to avoid the con
ditions whicu invite it. One of these con
ditions is alcoholic poisoninr.
It ought not to be necessary to suggest to
thoughtful,, intelligent people at least, that
anything wuich, in a great emergency, as at
riomeetead, must be prohibited as a matter
or public salety. or specially avoided, from
prudential considerations, as In the cholera
epidemic, ou-ht not to tie used at all for
beverage purposas. Neither ought the Stats
to legalize and protect the making and vend
ing, for beverage uset any time, of such a
commodity. National Temperaucs Advo

The head is clearer, the health is better, the

In an attempt to defend the moderate use
of alcoholic stimulants a prominent English
physician readily indicts it, for he says:
"Mix all liquor with fool which shields the
tissues from its contact ani aids its sate dis

that the people of Maine save yearly lu-ire
