How to Milk.
In Switzerland a milk-maid ge
higher wages it she be gifted with
good voice, as it has been discover!
that a cow will give one-fiftn mo:
milk if soothed during the process i
milking by a pleasing melody. Wi
not some Edgefield milk-lady or mill
gentleman try the Switzerland methc
of extracting cow fluid and report ri
suits to this office. Don't try "after tl
ball is over." It makes cows mad.
Thc Mau and the Hour.
There seems to be a pretty genen
desire among Edgefield reformers t
send ex-Governor Sheppard to ll
Constitutional Convention. All til
signs of the times indicate that th
next political battle in this state wi
not be between reformers and consei
valives, but between democrats an
republicans. Such7 being the eas?
Edgefield cannot, at this juncture, al
ford to do without the counsel and ac
five aid of Gov. Sheppard. Let us a
reformers make no mistakes in thi
matter.
4 Ewe Lambs.
On last Sunday morning an ewe be
longing to Trial justice A. D. Tim
merman of Pleasant Lane, gave birtl
to four ewe lambs, all doing well, ful
of life and vigor. This means tha
j four lambs are better than four cent!
cotton. And this reminds us that Mr
Eldred Addison of Ninety-Six ship
ped to New York recently forty Jamb:
for which he received ten dollar:
apiece.
Another Wrinkle.
Farmers in Alabama are feed
ing their horses and mules on
cotton seed hulls and molasses,
and the stock not only keep up un
der such diet, but get seal fat. At first
they don't like such-feed, but soon g;et
used to it, and eat heartily. You take
a peck of hulls and sprinkle half a pint
of molasses over them. Our informant
says if any one desires to know about
the experiment and will write to Jas.
Trodale, a farmer of Livingston, Ala.,
he will get full particulars. Now. if
we can feed our horses and mules on
cotton seed hulls with a little sorghum
sprinkled over them, perhaps lt will
uolve the five cent cotton problem.
Thc Women's Prayer Meeting
The women of our town still
tinue to hold their weekly pru
meetings every Monday . afternoo:
four o'clock. The next praver-mee
will take place at I he home of Rev
M. Brabham. It is earnestly des
that all the Christian women of
town attend these gatherings. ''WI
two or three are gathered in my ni
there I am in the midst of them."
Alliance Resolution.
At the last meeting of the Edge!
County Alliance the following res<
tion were adopted :
RESOLVED, That it is the sense
the Eagefleld County Alliance, tha
would be to the interest of all cot
raises to make contracts for Comrr
cial Fertilizers on the cotton opt
basis, and also that it would be to
interest-of Fertilizer Companies to
up their goods in cotton sacks so a:
increase the consumption of cot
and thereby enhance the value of
raw material.
Successful Tobacco Culture.
The Aiken Journal and Review sa
"Last year Messrs. Ferrell and M
phy of Winsted, X. C., rented li
from Mr. Johu T. Jeffcoat, in Roc
Grove township in this County, for
purpose of experimenting in tobac
culture. They planted fifteen aci
and their crop averaged 1,000 poul
of good leaf to the acre, which tl
sold at prices ranging f?om 21>? tc
cents per pound. They are so v
pleased with their experiment tl
they intend to go more extensiv?
into the culture of tobacco this ye
They are also offering, so we are
formed, twenty-five dollars an acre
any one who will cultivate tobai
under their directions. This is a g:
opportunity for any one who might
desirous of experimenting in that
rection."
Try Rice.
Will not some Edgefield farmer l
raising rice this year? A good deal
it was made in this county before I
war. It is very easily cultivated a
yields from forty to sixty bushels
the acre, and half a peck will plant
acre. An Aiken county farmer in w
ting to the Augusta Chronicle ab(
this matter says : "I consider upla
rice a flue and profitable grain to gr
-the grain for the table and forage 1
cattle. I select the stiffest land on i
farm for rice culture. It would gr<
equally as well if not better on swai

wide, bedding the land as for cott<

fashioned wooden beater or huller;
I send it to Charleston to be hulled,

A New Wheat.
For a number of years Mr^E. g.Ca
Tflel17*eTIllur or che Rural New Yorke
has been conducting some interestii
experiments in the crossing of rye (
wheat. It is well known that rye wi
grow on poor land, while it requir
richland for wheat. Iiis idea Avas
produce a wheat which would gro
like rye on poor land. Furthermo
these experiments were undertaken
produce a grain that would combii
the hardiness of rye and the desirab
qualities of wheat. One of these ry
wheat hybrids is now being introdu
ed to the public by a New York se<
firm under the name Rural New Yorl
er No. 6. All appearance of rye has di
appeared, except that the culms ju
under the heads are now and agai
downy, as in rye. This downiness <
the stem is variable. Mr. Carmen hi
tried by selection for many years 1
fix it without any approach to succ?s
Of all his rye-wheat, hybrids tl
downy culm is permanent in but on
and that resembles rye in sever', otl
er respects. It is reported that No.
succeeds and produces heavy crops o
poor, thin land where pure whei
could not be successfully or profitabl
grown.
The Tariff Reduction a Reality.
The Tariff reduction on a grea
many woollen goods went into el
feet the first of Januar}', and w
propose to be up with the time.1
and lo give our friends the ful
benefit of this reduction. We hav
decided to sell our immense stocl
of gents', boys', and children'
ready made clothing at a discoun
of 20 per Cent. These goods wer
bought in September upon tin
very best terms and marked ii
plain figures at a low price, an<
uow you can get 20 per cent ol
from the price. A suit that sole
for $15 will now be $12. A sui
that sold for $6 will now bo $4.80
This is a very plain way for ou?
customers to see the tariff reduc
tion and we hope all will give us i
call at once.
