Our Representatives,?The Neios and Courier had an excellent biographical sketch of each of our Representatives in a recent issue. A man has only to go into politics to learn his own history, and as these gentlemen were all in politics during the recent primary, we presume everybody knows everything about them. We are glad though that the State at large had a chance to read the history of our sterling Representatives, "who have such an honorable record. Baptists in* Convention. ?The State Baptist Convention -which was in session in Columbia several days last week, adjourned on Saturday. It was probably tbe largest Convention held since its organization. Delegates from nearly all sections of the State were in attendance, and it is said was a most enjoyable meeting. The next meet ing will be Held. in sumter on inursday before the first Sunday in December, 1887. The Rev. J. Howard Carpenter, pastor of the Baptist church at this place, was in attendance upon the sessions of the Convention. New Departure in* Mount Zion.? The opening exercises at Mount Zion 1 are now accompanied by music. Under the direction of Prof. Witherow, the students have learned several songs and all sing accompanied by the organ. In addition a small portion of Friday's time is devoted to exercises out of the regular order of things. There is music at times and lectures on various subjects on natural philosophy accompanied with numerous experiments. These lectures are simple and practical and add greatly to the interest of the school, and general the knowledge of the scholars. Postmasters' Convention-.?In accordance with a resolution passed at t;h? convention of third and fourth elass postmasters at Columbia on the inst., requesting the formation of county associations; a?convention o ; the postmasters of Fairfield county is i hereby called to meet at "Winnsboro ion the 9ih day o?

"Cranks."?In almost all large assemblies there are certain persons known to the outside world and their associates as "cranks". Some timesthere is only one, but more frequently there are several who are classed under this head. It is not necessary to the fixistenop nf cnr>h a i fviof via should lack brains, for in many instances they have too many for their 3 A ? - * ' uwu gvuu ana want w snow tnem on. The General Assembly of Sonth Carolina in the past has been no exception to the rnle already laid down. We hope that later developments will not ! show the existence of snch a person in i the present one. i iiiouyt z.ion grounds.?xne trustees i of Mount Zion contemplate'at as early I a day as practicable, leveling ofi the ! grounds !n front of the building. As j the ground stands at present it is anys thing but beautiful, but when the surface shall have been leveled, fenced and grass planted it will present an excellent appearance, Some few J trees will have to be cut and in order to supply their place .it is probable ! that an "Arbor Day" will be instituted j for the special purpose, of supplying, the grounds with trees. When these schemes are accomplished we will have an attractive little park in our midst. Explanation of Weather Signals. White flag means fairor clear weather. Orange flag means local rains. Blue flag meaus general rains. Black triangle flag when placed placed above either of the others means rising temperature; when placed below means falling temperature. White flag with black centre means a cold wave is approaching. These signals mean what changes will take place, if any, within the next twenty-four hours. The dispatch fur the signals can be seen on the Court House door dailj\ James Pagan. I'pTuvn T?rr,F?Mr. "R. D. Bolick. of this county, has been experimenting in the cultivation of upland rice. "When he planted his cotton crop last spring he found a spot of about onequarter of an acre in the middle of one of his cotton fields which was rather swampy. In this spot he planted upland rice at the same time he planted his cotton. He worked it just as he did his cotton crop, and when be harvested his rice he found he bad made about twenty-five bushels in the rough. This, we are intormea, is worth about one dollar and a half per bushel. He thinks that this crop can be grown succesfully on our marshy lands, and that it would pay far better than cotton. Premiums at the State Fair.?Secretary Hollo way has furnished the press the following official statement of the amount paid'in premiums and other awards al the late fair to exmoi- i tors in the several counties and Stales: j Amount of premiums paid to the : counties for the classes in field crops, thoroughbred cattle, grade cattle, horses, mules, sheep and goats, swine, poultry, as follows: Abbeville ?359, Anderson 8363, Chester $424, Charleston S26. Darlington $83, Edgefield $158, Fairfield 8314, Greenville $67, Kershaw $60, Lancaster $9, Laurens $258, Lexington $176, Newberry $40, Orangeburg $5, Oconee $30, Richland > $321, Sumter $85, Union $58, York $25, North Carolina $216, New York $36, Virginia $65; total $3,178. Household, fine art, fruit trees and garden, needle, and fancy, manufacturers, $77-1.50. Fine art, silver medal; mechanical, gold medal; manufacturerg, three diplomas; farm implements, nine diplo mas; mechanical, seventeen dispiomas; plows, five diplomas; total, thirty?four diplomas. From the foregoing statement it will be seen that Fairfield ranks fifth in amount of premiums taken at the. fair. Over one-half of this amount was taken by one gentleman of the county, Mr. Jas Turner, v^hile Mr. John G. Mobley stands as agocd second in carrying off premiums. CA1TW T*4/7TO 4 T*r\ TT/TT WiPtfTV/J. Superannuated vs. Juvenile?"Watchman Spivins." Messrs. Editors: I feel constrained to write a letter in answer to the many inquiries and suggestions made by "W. E." and "Watchman Spivins" on ! farming, improvement of soil and the ; incompetent labor existing in the !j South. T ?ill i-Un f T Viotr A WAttt 'I JL Will 1119b OtatC kuai x. uar g nv ;t made an attempt to bring before the ' people the modus operandi of imprcr- j ing ai>d re-claiming the worn oat and I impoverished lands in this as well as i other counties, of which every land- j owner is cnrsed with his or her share. |; I will admit that I am a juvenile,j; bat if it is not impracticable, I will || give a theory which I hope will not be [ mal a propos to the intelligent and j progressive farmer. A thorough and effective drainage of bottom or low lands; a true ana accurate system 01 j terracing and making of hill-side1 ditches; and the alternate planting of crops. This, with proper, manuring and culture will, in my humble opinion, do as much to improve the soil as the majority of theories advanced by the most scientific agriculturist. I will not go into the minute details of what constitutes a successful or an unsuccessful farmer, or the management and mismanagement of individuals in general. i Good morning, Mr. Spivins; many i fhnnbfl fhr vftnr timplv thftnorhffill [ suggestions on the financial basis of i the agricultural world. I will coincide with you, except on one point, and that is" the labor question. It is not the fault of the laborer if he does not do his duty ; it is his employer's business to control him, and with the proper management h^ will become a good laborer whether it is compatible with him or not. Now, Mr. Spivins, if there is any way on God's green earth to improve the present system of labor, let us hear what it is. This is another de6id eratnm of the day. If we import white labor (as yon" suggest) will that be an ail-healing remedy? Why, no! l^is is most erroneous idea ever invent^ This has been thoroughly tested found to be= the most inefficient lirm labor ever introduced in this sectio? of ^ Southern States. I do not say i^at na born whi'e labor is not practical fc ut I do 6ay emphatically that for?1?ri labor is inadequate to" the faim*n? interest of the "ctvffy" always on 2Sta?r'He can >^bd'0d? bidding, but foreignTk^not give social equality, and if you the it to him there is wrangling, iS^^j result will be that you will have to*?% your neighbor that one of your hands has left j'ou, and you fear that you will lose a portion of"your crop, and that you are in so much trouble you do not know what in the world to do. Not so with the colored farm hand. If you feed and clothe him well he will stay with you "until death do us part", notwithstanding the minor abuses he may receive at your hands. Mr. Spivins, spread a few rays of bright sunsnme on tms subject, and let just a little of their reflection lali in and around old Buckhead. I anticipate a trip to the n .ntains of Hepsadam, where the lion roareth and the wangdoodle monrneth for its first-born. While there I would like to receive a dear little letter from my friend Mr. Spivins. S. D. Goodlette, Buckhead, S. C., 2sov. 26, 18S6. A Department Clerk Gets a Start in Life. "Yes," said Mr. John 31. Manning to a Post reporter at his residence, No. 1106 Ninth st., N. W.. Washington, D. C.
