One of the soldiers, as the girls passed him, besought them to have the charity to bring him a little water, adding that he was very ill, and that it would be as much as his life was worth to go and fetch it himself. They walked on much offended at the man presuming to speak to them, all but the young Englishwoman, whose compassion was moved, and who, leaving her procured some water, and broght it to the soldier. He begged her to tell him her name and place of abode; and this she did. When she rejoined her companions, some blamed, and otherfridiculed her attention to a common soldier; but they soon had reason to 'lament that they had nvt been equally compassionate for the grateful soldier contrived, on the night of the massalre, to save this voung Englishwoman, while all the other Inhabitants of the house dwelt 4r were 4 killed.

The Progressive Farmer. Everv day we get letters asking for a fertilizer formula for cotton or corn or tobacco or potatoes or some' other crop. Sometimes the inquirer tell us that his land is red or gray or black, sandy or swampy; sometimes be does not even mention the soil, as if it were a matter of no impor tance. Thousands of farmers seem to depend on the fertilizer bag, instead of on the soil, to make their crops. Now.

we are always ready and glad to answer any farming question; and with our staff au thorities to whom we can refer such questions, we are able to give the most practical and help ful answers. But no man can tell what tertilizer is needed on a soil which he has never seen and of whiqh he has only the most general knowledge. That is our first text, and our second is closely related to it. The first essential of goad farming is the upbuilding of the soil, and any system of farming which depends on purchased fertilizers rather than the fertility of the land is bound to keep the, farm-; ers poor. i I telligently used.

Ahci the man who thinks he needs nothing ex cept: so manv pounds or a certain grade of fertilizer to make profi table crops, is not using them in telligently. Until southern grow legumes teed stock, save manure, and their lands covered during the winter, they must expect to sell their crops as soon as they are made for what ever they will bring, simply be cause they are too poor to hold them for profitable prices. With proper methods the man who must depend on a crop that is yet unmade for the credit necessary to furnish him a living would be the rare exception in the South. As Professor Massev and other writers have often said, with a proper system of rotation, enough live stock to consume the cottonseed meal and the forage produced on the farm, and decent care for the land, we could raise cotton for a thousand years and have our soils constantly increasing in fertility. If you are tired of feeling yourself at the mercy of the cotton exchanges or the Tobacco Trust, of having to sell your crop for less than it cost to make it, of struggling each year to make ends meet, why not start right now at this beginning or another crop season to make a change? Plant cowpeas or soy beans, get some hogs of improved breeding and raise lyour own meat, save all the manure you can, next fall sow begin, in fact, to improve your soil so that vou can place your dependence for a crop and a living in it, and not in the few tons of fertilizer which you must buy cn credit.
