L. JOYNER.<lb /><lb />We frequently hear farmers say that<lb />if tobacco should go down in price to<lb />6 or 7 cents per pound they would be<lb />forced to go back into the cultivation of<lb />cotton or some other crop and leave off<lb />tobacco entirely. Now while we are<lb />not an advocate of growii.g large crops<lb />of poor tobacco, but rather small crops<lb />of superior quality, yet letTs look at the<lb /><lb />tween tobacco and cotton"tokacco at<lb />7 cents ard cotton at 7 cents.<lb /><lb />We have consulted a number of prac-<lb />tical farmers and they say they can<lb />grow and house an acre of tobacco for<lb />from $25 to $35.00. Now on en<lb />average say it costs $30.00 an acre to<lb />grow and save it,and on this acre you<lb />get from 500 to 1000 pounds, say on<lb />average of only 600 pounds and it will<lb />average that the county over. You<lb />sell this 600 pounds of tobacco at 7 cts:<lb />apo und and realize $42 for the acre:<lb />Now as we have taken 2 minimum av.<lb />erage on the acre of tobacco we will ap-<lb />ply the same rule to the acre of cotton.<lb />We will assume that the cotton land of<lb />Pitt county will average a half bale to<lb /><lb />the acre or 225 pounds of cotton which<lb />fat 7 cts. a pound is $15.75.<lb /><lb />So you<lb />can plainly see that the profit on an<lb />acre of tobacco above all actual expense<lb />and cost is nearly equal to the entire<lb />gross amount of an acre in cotton.<lb /><lb />As to the cost of growing and saving<lb />un acre or cotton we have not consider-<lb />ed that at all. We shall leave the<lb />reader to make his own calculation.<lb /><lb />Every year since Greenville has had<lb />a market the entire sales<lb />averaged, including scrap,<lb /><lb />have<lb />over 10<lb />cents a pound. Now when we con-<lb />sider that the average cost of handling<lb />an acre of tobacco is $30 and that the<lb />average weight is 600 pounds and that<lb />the « verage price has been say only 10<lb />cents, you see that on an average the<lb />farmers of Pitt county have realized a<lb />net profit of at least $30 for every<lb />acre of " tobacco the<lb />county. Of course every man that<lb />bas planted tobacco has not made<lb />money out of it. Some have lost<lb />heavily, but more have lost as they<lb />would have done had the county been<lb /><lb />grown in<lb /><lb />upon a single cotton basis. There are<lb />as a matter of course exceptions to<lb />thee figures, for instance we know of<lb />several farmers who say that to grow<lb />ant handle an acre of tobacco cost<lb />them every ceut of $40. There are<lb />others who even say it costs more than<lb />that figure. This ot, course depends<lb />upon the amount of fertilizer used and<lb />usually it is the man Who uses heavy<lb />applications of manure that gets the<lb />most money out of tobacco while we<lb />believe that too much fertilizer is fre-<lb />quently used and as this item is one. of<lb />the vhief sources of expense it is one in<lb />the use of which great care, and judg-<lb />~thént should be used ia order to get the<lb />most satisfactory results,<lb /><lb />detect sory<lb /><lb />figures and make some comparisons be-|<lb /><lb />The principal work He the St. Loui | :<lb />r| Convention to-day was, the adoption of |<lb />platform, ~There was much diseus- ;<lb /><lb />sion over cig Gonbeidl plank.<lb /><lb />ee en tt na om<lb /><lb />ee ee<lb /><lb />We show the grandest assortment of Fancy<lb />Cheviot Business Suits ever brought to Green~<lb /><lb />ville.<lb />terns and fabrics in ultra fashionable styles.<lb />Beautiful broken plaids, indistinct plaida, neat<lb />pin checks. fancy Clay weaves, silk mintures pin<lb />dots"the colorings, cut and the make all of<lb />the latest merchant. tailor kind"the price of<lb /><lb />which is very low down.<lb />A nice line of Straw Hats<lb /><lb />ATS! still left to select from.

M.

The hams are placed in a large<lb />tray of fine Liverpool salt, and the flesh<lb />surface is sprinkled with finely ground<lb />crude saltpetet until the hams are as<lb />white as. though covered with a moder-<lb />ate frost"or use three or four pounds<lb /><lb />and pounds of green hams.<lb /><lb />2.

Now<lb />pack the hams in bulk, but not in piles<lb />more than three feet high. In ordinary<lb />weather the hams should remain thus<lb />for three days.<lb />3. Then break and re-salt with fine<lb />galt. ~The hams thus salted should re-<lb />main in salt one day for cach pound exch<lb />ham weighs.<lb />4, Next you wash with tepid water<lb />until the hams are thoroughly cleaned,<lb />and after partially drying rub the entire<lb />surface with finely ground blackpepper.<lb />5, Now the hams should be hung in<lb /><lb />5 The Big Mili Fauure in Georgia.<lb /><lb />The Eagle &amp; Phenix mills, at Col.<lb />abla, Ga., went into the hands of<lb />receivers inst Saturday. The indebt-<lb />edness of the mills is $1,121,000.. It<lb />is the largest manufacturing enterprise<lb />in the South and its weekly pay roll to<lb />hands is $5,500. When Sherman<lb />passed through Georgia.on his march<lb />to the sea he applied the torch to this<lb />property and left it in ruins, When<lb />the war closed the owners deeided to re-<lb />build, and instead of one mill they put<lb />up two, and since then the property<lb />has been known as the Eagle &amp; Phe.<lb />nix mills,<lb /><lb />The petition for the receivers re-<lb />cites the tact that on Feb. 17, 1873, the<lb />Eagle &amp; Phenix Manufacturing Com-<lb />pany was granted permission by the<lb />legislatue to operate a savings bank in<lb />connection with their other business,<lb />and began operating accordingly. More<lb />than $1,000,000 was deposited in this<lb />department and among the depositors<lb />It iz alleged that<lb />none of this, money was used for<lb /><lb />were the petitioners.<lb /><lb />luan purposes as is usual with savings<lb />banks, but that it all went to build ad-<lb />ditional mills and increase the facilities<lb />of the Eagie &amp; Phwnix company.

"<lb /><lb />Large Teeth Indicate a Broad Tempera-<lb />ment and Small Ones Show a Mentality<lb />of the Minute Order"An In-<lb />teresting Study.<lb /><lb />| Have you ever thought that you may<lb /><lb />_ ;tell.a personTs character long after his<lb /><lb />death, when his body has decayed and<lb />there is nothing left but a few bones?<lb />Probably you have not, but it is quite<lb />possible, for character may be judged<lb />by the teeth.<lb /><lb />in one important respect, character<lb />reading by means of the teeth is more<lb />reliable than that by means of the<lb />hands, lips, nose, eyes, feet or other<lb />parts of the body, valuable as they may<lb />Seem in some particulars. Jt has been<lb />'said that a manTs mode of inner life,<lb />the working of his conscien ve, will leave<lb />scme visible trace, some riuterial in-<lb />~fluence on lis general appentuace, thus,<lb />lin a mc usure, thwarting oo. vriginal<lb /><lb />design of vature.

No<lb />habit of thought will bave uny influence<lb />whatever in their shape and character.<lb />As far as concerns them Mrs. Nature<lb />has laid her plans with a determination<lb />that they shall not be modified.<lb /><lb />Phrenologists have not agreed upon<lb />~any stated set of rules for judging a<lb />| personTs character from an inspection<lb />~of his teeth. The best that they pretend<lb />ito do is to arrive at a general estimate.<lb />This is not as satisfactory from the<lb />point of view of completeness and<lb />minuteness as the methods of reading<lb />tharacter by means of other parts of<lb />ithe body; but it has its advantages in<lb />its increased reliability. By a careful<lb />examination of the teeth it may be<lb />definitely announced whether or nota<lb />person is a coward or high-spirited,<lb />weak or strong-minded, slovenly or<lb />punctilious. This determination will<lb />reveal the character as it was at birth"<lb />the native character. There are thou-<lb />sands of cases where individuals have<lb />olived down nature,� so to speak, dnd<lb />have evolved an artificial character of<lb />one sort from a natural character of<lb />the opposite sort. This, provided the<lb />change has been from a poorer to a<lb />better character, is highly commend-<lb />able, and is a strong argument against<lb />the doctrine that has recently been<lb /><lb />P| promulgated, to the effect that mast<lb /><lb />criminals should be excused because<lb />they were born with criminal instincts,<lb />and couldn't help it.<lb /><lb />eAnd yet, after all, when you are deal-<lb />ing with a man you will be better sat-<lb />isfied to know his real, than his artificial<lb /><lb />| character, and 80 you may know it only<lb /><lb />yy an examination of his teeth. This<lb />examination will usually have to be<lb />couducted covertly, as it is not likely<lb />that the general run ef persons whom<lb />you meet will lend themselves to a<lb />minute investigation of their dental<lb />arrangement.<lb /><lb />You may start out with the general<lb /><lb />smallness, and big teeth mean bigness.<lb />It makes not much difference to what<lb />qualities you apply these terms. A<lb />man with small, short teeth can hardly<lb />| be concerned in anything big"be it<lb />| charity, or crime, nobleness or deviltry.<lb />His temperament is of the minute order;<lb />his compass is limited. If engaged in<lb />business, he will work on a basis of<lb />hundreds, when a man with large teeth<lb />would be dealing with thousands. If<lb />he engages in crime, he would be far<lb />more apt to steal coppers from a news-<lb />boy than to explode a bank safe.<lb /><lb />On the other hand, a man with large<lb />teeth is a man who gves into things<lb />on a big scale. His mind, like the law,<lb />does not care for trifles, onon minima<lb />curat.� If he is charitable, he is gen-<lb />erous to a fault, and will be dividing his<lb />last penny with a needy friend, while<lb />the small-toothed man would hedge on<lb />his charitable instincts as soon as he<lb />saw that they were beginning to cause<lb />him the slightest inconvenience. The<lb />inan with the big teeth, if a criminal,<lb />would revel in holding up trains and<lb />in robbing them single-bamded "- in<lb />picking the pockets of the chief of po-<lb />lice, and in administering knock-out<lb />drops to the commissioners. Bigness<lb />is his watchward.<lb /><lb />But it is possible to read by means of<lb />the teeth finer shades of charaeter than<lb />imnerely those of bigness and littleness,<lb />We may also note insipidity, courage,<lb />heedlessness, ferocity, ideality and<lb />other qualities. If you will examine the<lb />accompanying sketches you will observe<lb />many types that are no doubt familiar.<lb /><lb />You will find it of interest to com-<lb />pare some of these teeth with those of<lb />animals, and to speculate as to whether<lb /><lb />ilarity of character, Canine and feline<lb />teeth are remarkable for their point-<lb />odness, being larger at the base than<lb />at the tip. This characteristic may be<lb />observed in some human teeth, and<lb />there are those who say that it denotes<lb />the possession of canine or feline ~in-<lb />stincts, ~<lb />Teeth which are separated by a gap<lb />/ denote, usually, a heedless, thought-<lb />less, or even slovenly character. On<lb />the other hand, teeth which are close<lb />together denote alertness of the mind.<lb /><lb />Whether this alertness js directed to-'<lb /><lb />broad statement that small teeth mean.<lb /><lb />a similarity in this respect means a sim- }<lb /><lb />ward great or small things depends<lb />upon the size of the teeth. When the<lb />teeth slant in one direction, as is rare-<lb />iy the case, they indicate insipidity.<lb /><lb />Fim:nness, courage and rat executive<lb />ability are indicated by teeth which are<lb />of larve size, set evenly in the gums,<lb />ane pe~~'b!y slightly protruding. Small<lb />teeth which point inward denote oppo-<lb />site qualities "N. Y.
