This country needs clover and other grasses and we should pay more attention to pastures. Last Monday we had a call Irom Mr. T, Vosburgh, of Mexioo, Pa., who Is disposing of samples of seed clover to our people. He gave the agricultural editors of the vltlage seed to sow an acre or two, and we intend to ' have aclover patch. It Is said tuat clover ou the red hills of North Carolina was the salvation of that State a few years ago, when the crops were > short. If the old North State flourishes on ' clover, why should South Carolina cattle suffer the pangs of hunger. New Store In Abbeville. 1 - Mr. O. P.
