The Mai 1011 c ?rre-ponJeut of the j News an 1 Courier wriie-s quite ?j thoughtful letter to tint new paper or J tobacco r&ioing in Mati->n County j No tobacco is raided in Fail Geld, but some of the tboushu expres e<1 by this correspondent should be impressed on farmera generally. Besides if it can be shown that Marion C >untv farmers { have made money by planting tobacco, ] it may infl lence FairfHd farmers Jo j imitate thempn so far as the ioSkcco farmer has succeeded, ami avoid Wi< mistakes. All farmers do not get the behest price* for their tobacco becanse pc me are more experienced and expert ti an ethers aad all do not pnt the a'lie quality of tobacco on tin mirke-. "Mu:h of the tobacco," says the correspondent, l"has been made by men who never planted tobacco before this year, and some of it doe? not show up in color as well as it should." "Mos^ of the better grades are being made by experienced men. Still, some of the new men are making a very fine quality of leaf." He then proceeds to give an instance of what can be done in raising the ctop: "Mr. Floyd has been offered $950 for his crop of tobacco in his pack hon6e al home, and has declined the effer. He say8 he has paid out for labor only $2 50, all the other"work being done by hitaself and: family." Of ourse, it is not every man who can. or will, do Lis own labor, but as the conespondent-suggests ntbere is more money in tobacco than any other crop for the* farmer who can manage it without too mich hired labor." "It is the boon of the man with a large family (o support." 7 Tha observation that we desire es-pecia'ly to direct attention to is that ' not a few farmers, who are in a po sition to know whereof they speak, say that there is danger that tobacco in this county (Marion) will soon be as great king as cotton," and "already with some farmer* all other crops are being neglected for the sake of tobacco." This single crop mania has dethroned king cotton, and the throne will crumble nnder tobacco if the same policy is pursned. It is strange that, though, ordinary common sense should teach one that it is exceedingly dangerous to rely on one single crop, yet farmers will persistently do it- A diversified crop minimizes los3 by drought or otber cause, for the very obvious reason that the chances for success in one or more of several crops is better than in one. Failure in all kinds of crops is rare. Some cot ton, Borne tooaceo, some wneat, some oats, and some of other kinds is much better policy than all of one kind. Overproduction is not apt to occur under snch a system, and a success i i one or more is practically certain. GREEN WOOD'S TROUBLES. The citizen? of Greenwood have gone vigorously to work to bring about peace and good order in the couutv. It is not an ordinary case of lynching that the good people ofGreenwood have united to remedy. Not depending on the officers of the law the mass meeting appointed an investigating committee to find out exactly what was at the bottom of the trouble. The committee reported, according to the correspondent of the News and Courior, "that while it wa* all the outgrowth of the Phoenix riot, it had no direct connection with it." "The several whipping.1?, at as many different times and places, were probab'y due to as many cau3e3." The causes, as found by the committee, illustrate how far lawlessness will go when once started. "The first case was that of a negro wh), it wa9 reported, was organizing a plot against Pbceoix, and one, who, it was thought, took part in the uprising last fall.1' Granting ?hat there wa3 some excuse for this, note bow easy it was for the lawless to 6nd another victim. So that "the second was found to be a personal matter between ? a white man and negro." The coanaitr?e find that there is 6ome evidence to show that the pur pose is "to frighten the negroes away so that white renters could get the lands cheap." "The committee found also some differences and friction among white neighbors, which were conducive to the state of anarchy among renegade white men." No counij in the State should envy Greenwood in her lawlessness, and it is hoped tb'it her bsst citizens will succeed in putting a stop to it. A Mother Tells How She Saved Her Little Daughter's Life. I am the mother of eight children and have had a great deal of experience with medicines. Last sammer my little daughter had the dysentery in its worst form. We thought she would die. I tried everything I could think of, but nothing seemed to do her any good. I saw by an adverti-ement in our paper that Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy whs highly recommended and sent and got a bottle at o^ce. It proved to be one of the very best medicine* we ever had in the house It saved tn<- little daughters life. I am anxious for ever}' mother t) know what an excellent medicine it is.

His beautiful wife, very much embarrassed, had to say, c:Mercv, to forget the bread," Now, don't forget tbe staff of life. I am s^rry to see so little interest taken in the school by male teachers; 't ore may judge by tbe attendance, for it is the male teacher who must take charge of the rougher class and regulate them. Tiie boys who are mean at sixteen aud sometimes earlier must bo tempered with the rod. Every educated'man knows the lifijience between a female aud a iqjiI.' teacher.
