AW OLD BALE OF COTTON

It Was Kept for Generations But Was
kinaliy Sold

The Augusta. Ga, Evening
‘News says there was recently sold
‘Gn that city what was probably
the oldest bale of cotton in the
world. The cotton was grown in
Laurens county, 8. C., in 1834 by
an old man by the name of Watts,
The cotton, though old, was
snowy white and not the least
tinged with yellow. It was a
curiosity to the cotton men of to-
day and «tracted considerable
attention. The bale was of usuai
size aud was packed in a coarse,
home-made cloth, woven from
old rags into asheet. The ties
which held the bale together were
made from grape yines and were
as bard and taut as rawhide

went.

thongs. The cotton has been in
the family ever since it was made
and dumped from the cotton
press into the yard. It was then
taken into the old barn, where it
bas been safe sheltered from the
weather for more than sixty vears.
Mr. Watts, though fairly a rich
planter, refused to sell the cotton
at any price. Qld man Watts,
after his erop was ginned and
baled, in 1824, set one bale aside
from the entire lot, saying to his
gon at the time: “Il may bea
poor man when 1 come to die,
and in case I am I want that bale
of cotton (pointing to that par-
ticular bale) sold and the proceeds
used to defray my funeral ex-
penses.” The years rolled by, he
continued to add to his wealth,
and when he had lived liis alloted
time he was pretty well tixed in
this world’s goods, and the cotton
was left unsold. Some time be-
fore Watts’ demise he took oc-
cusion to rewark to his son that
in case the cotton was not used,
to keep 1t in the family, guarding
96 carefully, and not to sell under
any circumstances except for fun-
ral. expenses....The. bale was
“more careful'y watched by him
than his father. Mr. Watts, Jr.
Was industrious and when he
_erossed over the river it was not
. Piatra li to dispose of it to pay
the expenses of the funeral. Be-
fore the young man died he made
a wil! to.his sister and in thac wil|
it was his’ éxpressed wish that

_ $he precious bale be disposed of | .
_ only for the purpose ot obtaining
“money to ‘pay her funeral’ ex-
penses, if it be necessary. When

dle or a scythe, and knew enough
to sow avd plant and reap at the
proper season, could farm. All
there was to do was to plant corp
and sow wheat and grass seed,
harvest and market them. The
animals that were bred did not
amount to much, anvhow. In the
East, the local butcher would
come around aud buy the calves,
and, a8 & Gow was a cow, it did
not make any difference how long
she lived. The business was
dead easy, as far as management
It was then al] work and
no management; but now the
management is the principal
thing. The farmer must think,

‘and think hard. He finds it nec-

essary to diversify his crops more
than ever, and heis ofien ata
loss to decide in what direction
to doit. Hehas brains to com-
pete with, both on and off the
farm. Bogus butters, cotton seed
oil, lard, and adultsrations of |‘
every one of his products that
can be adulterated, are placed
side by side with his productions
in the market; and it is no use
for him to grumble about it.
While he 1s grumbling the other
fellows get the money. He must
not grumble but think ard plan.
He must recognize the fact thai
agricultural pursuits, like other
lines of business, have their com-
plications, and that nothing on
earth but the exercise of the gray
matter in his head will unrayel
them.—Farmer’s Voice.

 

Tobacco as a Disinfectant.

ene ner

Tobacco has long been claimcd
by its devotees to be a most effi-
cient disinfectant, but defenders
of the smoking havit, says Har-
per’s Weekly, fail to make use of
the most powerful argument in
its favor. Hitherto the most that
has been claimed in favor of
smoking was a certain subtile,
beneficial effect on the digestion
and a soothing effect on the
nerves.

It has been learned recently,
from the report of investigation

the epidemic of cholera at Ham-
burg, that cholera microbes could
not exist inthe mouths of smok-
ers.

There were no living bacteria,
after 24 hours, in cigars made up

cholera germs to the cubic inch.
There were no traces of microbes
to be found in any of the cigars
manufactured at Hambure in
the time of the epidemic. The
microbes die in a half or two
hours exposure to the smoke of
Brazil, Sumatra or Havana toe
bacco.

The smoke of any cigar kills
the microbes. Experiments show
that in five minutes after begin-
ning to smoke the microbes ip
the mouth are killed. Ano her
fact established is that none of
the persons employed in the to-
bacco factories at Hamburg cons
tract ohalers.

THE HONEST FARMER.

He Is Simple and Unsuspecting, But Scoops
the Piano Drummer.

“Talk all you want to about the
bunco steerers and other sharpers. of
the metropolis,” remarked a drummer
the other evening at a downtown hotel
to a Star reporter, “but some of the
sharpest of the sharps are to be found
in the country. Out among the fields
and lambs ard sheep and other inno-
cent things, don’t you know.”

“That’s because you don’t expect to
find such sharpness among the rurals,”
explained the reporter, who was born
and raised in the country, and didn’t
like to see his fellow-countrymen li-
beled.

“Expecting it or not,” insisted the
drummer, “the sharpness is there, just
the same, and it is just assharp. For
instance,” and the drummer fixed him-
self for a longer heat, “some years ago,
when I was a drummer in pianos, ['l!
tell you what an experience Thad. Our
house was one of the big ones, with an
advertisement in every newspaper in
the country,and the way we sold pianos
was a caution to snakes.”

“Also a tip to alleged business men
who don’t advertise,” interrupted the
reporter.

“Your ‘also’ is sustained,” said the
drummer, and proceeded: “As I was

saying, we sold pianos right and left,

and, as might be expected, we picked
up a bad customer at frequent inter-
vals. One of these had got a $300 piano
on a small spot cash payment, bal-
ance monthly, on the strength of a
farm we thought was his, also on his
general reputation, which up to this
time had been as good as anybody’s in
the community.”

“Like Eve's in the garden?” ventured
the reporter.

“Exactly,” smiled the drummer. “If
the devil had not tempted that hitherto
exemplary female she would have come
through in good shape, and just so with
our customer. <A $300 piano was more
than he could stand, and he went down
before it. After his first payment he
failed to respond, and we waited as
long as was our practice, and then sent
mail to him to return the piano, as per |
contract. In due time the piano box,
in as geod trim as when we sent it.
came back, and we put it in stock. A
month later it was shipped to another
customer, and we heard from it soon
to the effect that there wasn’t any
piano there, but that the box was filled
with pieces of wood and iron of about
the piano’s weight, and wedged solidly
into the box. Ordinarily we would not
have been so careless, but we were
rushing things, and had to neglect de-
tails. Now we had to make up for
that neglect, and went after our bunco
friend in the country. He lived 200
miles away, and at a short distance
from the small town to which we had
shipped the piano, which was on the
railroad. Well, I got there one morn-
ing about 11 o’clock, and, tackling the
first driver I saw, I asked him if he
could take me to Jim Peters’ place. He
was a nice, honest-appearing sort of a
chap, and he told me Jim had moved
to another place, about 20 miles away,
and that I could only get there by driv-
ing over five miles to another road and
go ahead on that to Jim’s station. I
paid him a dollar to drive me over, and
he told me, as I had never seen Mr.
Peters, to ask anybody,and he would be
pointed out, as everybody knew him.
The station where he caught the train
was only a crossing, and my driver
flagged the accommodation, the con-
ductor nodding familiarly to him as J
gotaboard. As the train moved off my
driver drove briskly away, and when

the conductor came around ten minutes
later, I asked him if he knew Jim
Peters, and he almost toppled over on
me in his surprise. ‘Why-—why,’ he
stammered, ‘that was Jim Peters driv-
ing you’ Then it occurred to me that
the piano card on my satchel had given
me away, and Mr. Peters had done the
rest. We tried to get the piano again,’
continued the drummer, ‘‘but we lost
all trace of it, and finally gave it up,
and Mr. Peters, I presume, went with
it.’—Washington Star.

MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS.

—The oldest national flag in the
world is that of Denmark, which has
been in use since the year 1219.

 

—Among the éarliest specimens of| »§
alphabetical: writing are the ‘inscrip-| ="

tions given on the monument of King
Eshmurnnezer, which rival in impor-
tance the Moabitic inscription of King
Mesha.

—The oldest Jewish alphabet is sup-
posed by some scholars to have been an
adaptation of the Egyptian ideographs.
Its earliest use in a monument is sup-
posed to be the Siloam inscription at
Jerusalem.

—Astronomers calculate that the
surface of the earth contains 31,625,625
square miles, of which 23,814,121 are
water and 7,811,504 are land, the water
thus covering about seven-tenths of the
earth’s surface.

—Size for size, a thread of spider silk
is decidedly tougher than a bar of steel.
An ordinary thread will bear a weight
of three grains. This is just about 50
per cent. stronger than a steel thread of
the same thickness.

—Italy has 48 per cent. illiterate peo-
ple; France and Belgium about 15 per
cent. In Hungary the illiterates num-
ber 43 per cent.; in Austria, 39 per cent.,
and in Ireland 21 per cent. In India
only 11,000,000 people out of 250,000,000
can read and write.

--The 72 races inhabiting the world
communicate with each other in 3,004
different tongues, and confess to about
1,000 religions. The number of men
and women is very nearly equal, the
average longevity of both sexes being
only 38 years, about one-third of the
population dying before the age of 17.

—Jeroslaf I. of Russia had no teeth,
having lost these valuable adjuncts to
happiness by a blow from a Turkish
mace. An English traveler in this
country says it was commorly reported
that the king’s chewing was done by,
the queen, who masticated all the royal
food and transferred it from her mouth
to his majesty’s with a spoon.
