WINNSBORO, S. C.
Wednesday, November 25, : : loifl

\Yk publish today a letter from Mr.
L. T. Wilds which gives :i very interesting
account of the planting, curing
and cultivation of tobacco, which crop .
has proven very remunerative in some '
sections of the State. What Mr. [
Wilds le'ld our readers today is of
special interest just at this time when j
fanners are beginning to turn away
from cotton in the hope of finding'
some crop which will make them more
money. Again it i? the pioneers wKo
reap the benefit of n?-\v crops for after
a crop has become an established stuple
the: e is danger ot over-production as
with cotton at }>re.-?-nt. A great deal'
of money has been made in Darlington !
and Florence out of tobacco ami we j
hope some of our people will j ive it a
trial also. We understand Mr. Wilds ,
will plant about ten acres next year. We '
wish hitn success.
Fairfield at tlie Fair.
Xo county took a more conspicuous j
part at the State Fair than i airfield j
aud a lesson should be taught our j
people by the number of premiums j
tha* were taken by Fairfield. In j
nearly erery department Fairfield j
carried off a prize, in the raising of!
line cattle, she had r.o equal. Messrs. I
John G. Moblev and J. B. Turner j
.. _ both had most excellent herds of the :
finest blooded cows. They have shown j
that Fairfield is equal to the West for i
the breeding and raising of fine stock- J
In the ladies7 department our county j
took her full share.
Eren at the races Fairfield held her j
own.
In the poultry department. Fairfield j
was not behind her sister counties.
In field crops antl garden products., j
Fail field was superior to any, we!
doubt not that had the judges based I
their decision solely on this, and not :
include manufactured articles, Fair-1
Held would have earned the first prize i
of two hundred and fifty dollars in-1
stead of the second of one hundred!
and fifty.
We should hare been glad to have j
seen the White Oak Cannery take a j
premium. It would have been ex-!
ceedingly gratifying for our two can- j
neries to have taken both first and I
second premiums. However, that was j
not done. Of the Ladies Cannery the I
Xcws and Courier had the following to '
^ j
say, in its issue of the 16th inst:
Everybody in the State, we are sure, j
was pleased to see the announcement j
that the Ladle's Canning Company, of j
Winn&boro had received the first!
premium for their "displav of canned I
fruits and vegetables." After the de- j
scripticn that was published a few j
weeks ago, of the character of their j
work and the fine quality of their j
products, their triumph is not at all j
surprising, and there is no reason lo j
doubt that it was won by the merits ot j
the exhibit and not through the gai- i
lantry of the iudges. Their success, it
is to be hoped, wii! encourage othe
women in other parts of the State io
imitate their enterprise and organize
similar industries for their personal j
profit. There is plenty of room in the'
field, and the awards of premiums to j
women for other manufactured pro- j
~? ehrrfrtffTTousehoJd use show both the j
variety of articles to which they can !
bring to their preparation on a larger
scale.
This Trill certainly gire the cannery i
a uood advertisement. The record j
made by Fairlield is a good one, and j
should encourage our people.
In Xew ?lands.
Mr. Mortion may be a very clever
gentleman and his intentions may have ;
been good, but we lost faith in hi?
capacity for building the Cape Fear |
ir?d Cincinnati Kail road some time !
ago. Several things ixduced u? to be-'
liere that the road would never be1
completed by Mr. Morton. lie repre-1
senied himself to be the vice-president j
of the company which proposed to
construct the road. The baud of the
president seems never to have appeared
in the project. Nobody connected j
- with the company ever said or did j
an\thing about the road but Vice- j
President Morton. lie guaranteed j
everything. He seemed the only i
mouth-piece that the company had as
far as we could tell down here. He j
frequently said that his engineers we.e !
in the field. Sometimes it would be j
reported that they were at Camden,!
again at Greenville, at another time at ,
South-port, but inquiry proved that1
they were in the field nowhere. At
any rate they have never readied ;
Winnsboro. Mr. Morton came to
Wiunsboro. He talked and talked.
lie assured a speedy completion of tlie j
road. He boomed and he bio wed. j
Still no initial steps were taken, except
that he did write to the Clerk of the i
Court asking what his fee would be
tor recording a mortgage, and actually
had it recorded. He came down a
second time. This time he said some-j
thing about the railroads and a great i
deal about immigrants. He appeared
tobemoie enthusiastic on the immi-i
gration scheme than the rail rood
scheme. Yet mo railroad has been j
built and no immigrants have come.
It is refreshing and gratifying, to j
say the least of it, to learn from the j
Wilmington Messenger and the South- j
I port Ltdyr that sosiebodv else has j

OI'EXIMG Tilt: COLUMBIA C'iJSAL. I
Columbia, i?. C , Xov. 21.?Special:
To-day at noon, while the cannon were
booming, the bells were ringing and
the steam whistles were blowing1, the
flood gate* of the canal were opened,
and the tawny tide poured in. Mayor
McMaster, who. ten years uw.-, had
been selected to throw the first spade
full of dirt under the renewed euternrisi*.
midertaken br the citv after the
state hail abandoned it. turned the
wheels on this occasion. aided by Mr?.
Gould, daughter of Engineer Holley,
and by his own granddaughter, little
Jessie McKay. Hundreds, or rather
thousands, had gone to the locks at
the head of the canal three miles above
Gerrais street bridge, utilizing all the
hacks iu town, t couple of trains on
the Greenville road, and their own
legs. After prayer by the Kev. Mr.
Elwell, Mayor M (-Master made a very
eloquent speech of several minutes in
length, and the water was let in amid
general applause. Several boats were
in the bed of the canal w ith their crews
waiting for the flow, and as it came
down, they breasted it and after a
somewhat irregulai .-ourse, but wi hout
any shipreck. succeeded in getting
to the end iu somewhat more than a
half hour. When the water is fairly
in, the canal will be a beautiful sheet
of water for boating. The principal
members of the Syndicate who have
bargained fer the canal were present
and are represented as being well
pleased with their bargain.
Thus ends the lirst a-t in a drama
that began at least tweutv-five years
ago in The survey of the water power
by the late Dr. John LfCohte. The
/if H?r? oonol t r\
Ilg&l aci WW IMCplil V'X IHV V/UIIUI !?/
Governor Sprague, of lthodc Island, at
that time thought to be one of the
richest mew ia the United States, but
who shortly afterwards broke all to
pieces, took to hard drinking and is
said to hare chased lfoscoe Conkling
avrar from his summer home. Canonchet,
because of jealousy. His estate
went into the hands of trustees, and
may be there yet. The canal went
along with the rest and was locked up
a long time. Then it was gotten away
by the promise of oOO horsepower of
water to Sullivan Fenner, trustee of
the Sprague estate. Then Thompson
and Nagle appeared on the scene as
developers of the power, secured the
property on condition of spending so
much money in a given time. They
disappointed the people again. Then
the State undertook to develope the
power itself, with the aid of the penitentiary;
but an issue in politics was
badly needed about that time, and the
work was stopped after several years
of contest in the Legislature. Next
we find the State abandoning the
work, and giving it to Columbia, and
Columbia developing the canal herself,
through the levy of taxes and the issue
of bonds. The freshet destroyed some
work and necessitated the issuance of
more bonds, aud the people began to
be restive. The question of selling
the power was mooted, but there was
strong opposition to it until the announcement
that an unexpected find
of rock in tbe bottom of the ditch
would require the additional outlay of
25.0(X> dollars, when the authorities
and the people apparently got "rattled",
and in spite of a sort of option
given to certain other parties, the trustees
and aldermen sold the whole
thing to a party that offered just about
enough to let the city out. As the
State gave a handsome piece of property
to the City for nothing, and as
the City simply gets back iier cash
outlay, it follows that the new owners j
have received a great bargain.
It is hoped that they will appreciate !
the bargain they have made, and will
develop? the property at once. One
factory started on the banks of the
canal will be worth very much more
than the money value. It will show
confidence, and lead to other investment?.

The piatit t>'. d should be |i\puivd
and planted fn-in the .Middle o;
December to the Middle of Kobr.san
but the sooner l!:e better, so thai
plants may be obtained as ni lv a*
possible after the lo:h of April or
after all danger of fro*t is past. The
most general method pursued although j
I see thut some aio successful i:i
growing the plants in hot beds in their
ifardetss, is to jro in the woods, select
a moist place with southern exposure,
thirty square yards will be enough to
furnish plants lor four or o acies, bun
thoroughly with brush or legs for
three or four h^urs, until all genus ot
vegitation in the soil are destroyed.

the soil. The be > i> now ready for
seeding. For the amouni of la:id
above stated mix from three lourths to
.t table spoon lull of seed with a?hes
and to have the plants regular, divide
the seed and sow hall one way and hall
the other way over the bed. After
sowing go over and [ramp the seed in
thoroughly with the feet or a hoe or
roller ami then put on a good topdressing
of tine stable manure if this
can be obtained without g ?ss seed in
it, if not, some strongly ummonUted
ft-rtiliz.'r, or fowl house manure will
do. This top dressing is done lor ilie
thtee-fold purpose of warmth, moisture,
and rettilitv. The seed are now
>own. The next thing is to protect
them from frost and insects, by placing
j 10 inch planks edgewa\s around the
bed, and stakes at convenien: distaucei
through the middle of the same, and
C'-ver the entire bed with plant b-d

should be set from 'i to feet apart
iu the row according t<? fertility of

is 4aid that the plants are ea<y to live,
and require very little water when set
in dry weather. Where land is free
from rocks, stumps, etc.. the transplanter
is used which expedites the
work very much, enabling ' > hands to
set from 5 to 7 acres per day. The
transplanter is palled by two mules,
and a cask, which holds about O'l
gallons of water, is carried on it which
is so arranged that when each pant is

water. The machine costs about j
In cultivating the soil should always
| be worked to and never from the
plants. Narrow singletrees should be
used to prevent the breaking of the
tender leaves; the plowing should be
fast and thorough, as the plants soon
become too large for the plow to pass j
through, and the winding up of the
j work is done with the hoe. When the

time fur topping litis arrived. This is
a delicate task and requires somo ex-j
perience and common sense, to be
done right, for some plants may be J
vigorous, healthy and able to mature
from 12 to IS leaves while others may J
not be able to mature more than ten. !
j If the stalks are topped tuo low the j
leaves become coarse and rouuh, and;
if topped to? high they lack character
and body. After topping the -talks,
require suckering about ' > times, and
some worm and sucker the plants at
the same time. The worm is the same
that we sometimes see on the tomato
plant, with a long horn on one end, j
and is propagated from the egg laid :
by the large butter fly we often see |
flying around the Jamestown weed
flowers in the early summer evenings, i
Cobalt mixed with sweetened water is I
used to destroy these flics, a drop or
two of the mixture being placed in
each blossom. The fly makes its appearance
just about sunset, and as
soou as a beak is inserted in a flower
containing the cobalt, the fly falls and
dies at once, but despite this precaution
a great many eggs are deposited
on the leaves, which have to be looked
after. Some pay lu cents pernunureu
for the worms, and some have a lot of
children hired by the day with some
one to overlook them. Turkeys
also arc said to bo a great help in getting
rid of the worms.
In curing, the old method of cutting
the stalks is now becoming obsolete,
and instead hands go into the lield as
soon as the bottom leaves begin to
ripen, and break them, placing them
in small piles, others follow with
baskets made for the purpose and
carry them direct to the tobacco burn
where they are strung 011 wire that
project 4 <. r ") inches on each side of
sticks made for the purpose, from to
4 feet long and containing from 'i to
10 wires each. Six to seven leaves are
strung on each side of the stick? to
each wire. All of this work can be
done by women and children, who get
40 cents ]>er hundred sticks for the :j
foot. and 00 cents fur the 1 fo >t stick>.
The sticks arc carried at once into the
curing barns and lmng in there on the
frame work arranged for thai purpose.
Thus the leaves arc gathered as they
ripen without the necessity of gathering
a single green leaf. This process
is continued from week to week, until
all the leaves are gathered The product
from *> acres can be cured in one
barn as 1 have before stated, the leaves
ripening so that the barns can be tilled
say from Monday morning to Tnesdav.
12 o'clock or later ami the lire.s started
that night F.nd kept up until the leave*
are cured, and the barns are emptied
the latter part of the week, avid ready
for tilling again. The cheapest barns,
and those in general use in other tobacco
growing State?, any fanner can
construct with his own laborers, and
they are said to cure as good tobacco
as the most expensive. They are mftd^
