Dry weather has passed away and plenty of rain has fallen and crop are greatly inproved. General green will claim the farmers' attention foi awhile now. Wheat harvest is in full blast witb ordinary 3ield of grain while only P light crop was sown. Dr. G. E. Robinson has been quit< sick for several days.

Pardons, jr., telegraph oporatoi at Flo ,ery Branch, Ga., were muci in evidence here Sunday. Miiss Aanio WVatte, music teachei of Orangeburg, is at the Browvn House for awhile giving music los sons. For the past few days the railroad has been the wvorst crippled since it has been built, so far vs running trains are concerned, owing to the great flood in Spartanburg county. Liberty has circulated a petitior for subscription to the Gainesvilh sufferers and a collection wvas taker at the Baptist church Sunday. T wo aged negro women died here last week, Martha Ellis, aged 80 ani Minnie Jones, not quite so old. WVe had a little over two inches ol rain) last- Fi iday nligh. t, while placei near here report moderate rains, bul good seasons. About one-half of the c.,ton croj has just come up to a stand. C. Mr. Editor: There is a very im. portant problem p)resenting itself tc the farmers of the upper p~art of the state to solve, which is, how shaull the bottom lands (as they aroealled) be saved from the destructive overflo)wl It is voiry evident that the conistant cultivation of the hillsides in cotton is filling up theo streams with sand and causing very mnany acres of the low lands to become so wet that they are being abandoned for corn. Jusi after the war the Twvelve Mile Rivet bottoms were noted for large yieldi of corn por acre. Cotton cultivatior being a clean and late cultivation during a heavy rain causes the dirn to flow in thle streams faster thai they can carry ol' the washings the result is overflowing the bottorr lands. There mnu~t be a remedy applied quickly or cease planting the botton lands in corn, and if the bottom landi are given up for producing corn that means they are unfit for grass for stock. An animal will not eat vege. eation that has overflowvn with dirt, The present system of terracing haE proved insufficient to hold the wvater onl tile hills of this country. After giving tis matter some thought it has occured to your corre spondent that it would be beneficeoni to the lowv lands if every land ownei wasl required by law to allow a strij of land adjoining his bottom lands to grow uip, as we say in this country, allowv a strip 50 yards wide paralell with thn bottom from the edge of the bottom lands to be cultivated or pas tuned so that t~he vegetation and rooti of the timber would restore the rapid flow of soil an~d water from the fields then the creeks and rivers could car ry oft' the water very nearly as rapid. ly as it flows in. To :r.ake the l aw effective a heavy penalty would have to lg attached for its violation. Some thing must be done before it is tot late. Those directly interested should seriously consider this mattei and furnish some ef'ective remedy, The plan I have suggested may noQ be possible, J. H. NEWTON.
