Again this week we are before
the readers of the Entkrprisk
with what news we can gather
from our intercourse with the^
people who make up our community,
but while we have been
pretty closely confined with our
farming interest for the past ten
days we have been lucky enough
to meet our friend Jim in several
of our rambles. We succeeded
in pulling out of him some
items that are worthy our notice
^ for the pages of this letter. Jim
is a sorter of a good fellow any
way and when a man wants to
know or pet a pood honest opinion
of his neighbor wo generally
4 hunt him up.
FARMING AM) FARMKRS.
Yvell they have broken all
past records in preparing the
land and getting their crops in.
About all of the cotton crops is
planted, and in many instances a
pood per cent, of the corn is planted.
Many of our most enterprising
farmers are bepinning to adopt
the intensive plan in the manage
ment of their farms by cutting
down the acreage, manuring
more heavily and diversifying
their crops, and from observation
we find that such have about
solved the great question so often
asked does farming pay ? Answer
unhesitatingly it does.
The small grain crop both
wheat and oats are looking well
and promises a full crop.
S The fruit crop is almost a to
tal failure. Such as apples and
peaches. Smaller fruits, such as
cherries and strawberries are gen
erally good.
Gardens and poultry will both

though, and common people can
manage to make out, while can

i Miss Minnie Massey returned
home a few days ago from a visit
of several weeks among relatives
and friends in York county.
Mr. Dick Fudge and wife spent
some time in Van Wyck the past
week as the guests of Mr. and
Mrs. li. II. Massey. 1
Van Wyck was represented at
11lie annual Falls picnic by the
following representatives: Mr.
J Paul Beckham, Judge and Miss
Pompey Tillman.
Mr. W. R. Tillman sold at one i
time a few days ago 100 pounds!
lard and J 00 pounds homeraised
hams, which demonstrate
that the Southern farmer can 1
have his smoke house in his own 1
yard with a little extra exertion.
The Van Wyck school has re- j
opened at last, and is running on
full time with Miss Thorn as ,
teacher. Miss Thorn comes high- ,

of the school.
The actions of the out going
Board of county commissioners <
on the first Monday in April in
voting themselves pay for that
day, and refusing to pay the
Township commissioners who
was called there for the same
purpose was a little arbitrary in
our estimation, and is condemned i
by all fair minded men.
Messrs. Massey and Tillman ,
have taken in Mr. Jim Smith as '
a co partner in the fish business,
and they are now attending to (
their farms while Jim does the
fishing.

Itlnnd Halm is a conscientiously <
compounded medicine, the result of
forty years' practice by an eminent
physician. It is the best blood purifier
ever offered to the public, and is guaranteed
to cure if given a fair trial. Try
it for all skin and blood diseases, in- i
eluding catarrh and rheumatism in 1
its worst form. One bottle of it con-'
tains mere curative and building-up ,
virtue than a dozen of any other kind.!
l'rice $1.00 per large bottle.
HOW IT ST A N I >S A T 110 M K.
Our retail demand is such that we
buy Hotanic Blood Halm (II. H. B.) in
gross lots. It sells well and gives our,
customers sat isfaetion. < >ur sales have ,
increased 500 per cent, within a few
months. We attribute its rapid sale ;
to its size, price and merit. We are ;
selling four or live bottles of it toj'
(ink of any other preparation of the '
kind. It has failed in no instance to 1
give entire satisfaction. <
