The Hunting Season. ^ The timo for shooting birds will soon l>e here again. Almost every year there arc & few persons who have no regard for the 1 laws of the land so lonjr as such laws stand v ~J? ""'i ,?? !? nhuiuiirn \v)?.) OetWWeu Uieill turn men v/>. j? - go out ahead of the season and kill young birds, sometimes before they are quite grown. This is openly unfair to the hunter who has respect for the law and refuses to go out until the season opens. There are very few, if any, in Abbeville who break this law. In fact it is not safe for them to do so. There are hunters who' watch jealously and they are going to see to it that no one gets the start of them if they g can help it. Again there are the members boi of the Audobon Society who will report ess any infraction of the bird, fish, or game Pe laws. And, too, there is the County game poi warden who will prosecute any one who th< dares break these laws. 1 It Is a pleasure for the citizens of the opi County to know that the fish laws for aft Abbeville were strictly obeyed during last eni Summer. The law now requires a closed sot season from Thursday to Sunday inclusive mi on which no seins are allowed in the bu streams. So far as we know there were I no infractions of this law last summer. br< We have not heard of any one ahead of wo the shooting season this year. Last year set there were a few. No man has the right ha or privelege to breakfthis law any more du than he has to break any other law, and wi any one who breaks it should be punished, in and he will be punished if reported. coi It is such a temptation to slip out ahead coi of ever}' one else and Kill the birds before ne they have ever heard the report of a gun, coi but It is unlawful and wrong. There will mi be less of it this year than there was last m( year. coi \ ? mi Frank Clinkscales, Esq., was in Elberton eh on Wednesday and in Greenwood on ga Thursday, on professional business.

["his crop without plow or hoe, except to in the fnrrow for the seed grain and j erward to break the middles. He was jiei thusiastic in describing the size of the suri tie and the length of the ear, and in our ]-jn nds eye we saw visions of great cribs j0(.] rsting with the staff of life. pal le exprssed great regret at not having sat, lught a complete ear to show us, and we 0i(j iuld have been glad to see it, as he -j ;med to have worked a miracle or to yie ve made an important discovery in pro- ()f cing the healthy homo sowed grain, tich is free from tne danger that lurks res the meal that ii made from Western res rn. We all know thstjthe native grown CC)g in never kills us with Pallrgra. Mr. Pen- j 11*6 success made us feel that Abbeville ^he jnty at least was safe from the fatal colJ ilady that afflicts so many eaters of ial that is ground from musty Western we) rn. It was after we began to eat the ^ isty meal or after we began to feed our imj ickens on "chopped feed" and then be- ^hi n to eat the chickens, which fowls are id to be after eating musty chopped food anj cellent and sure purveyors to the hum- nei fnmily of the dreaded Pellagra. tjlc VIr.

When we asked how many acres of corn planted in this way, he said he had not 1 arge field and when pushed as to the M res he finally knocked all our hopes into pi 'cocked hat" by saying that he thought had the twentieth part of one acre, rhe only trouble with Mr. Pennell's plan TH that it was not couductcd on a larger , ale. wj Next year we hope that he may plant a jQ L.
