Edgefield Advertiser WEDNESDAY, MAR. 6, 1895. L0GAL2 BREVITIES. The breath of spring! Jonquils are blooming. Read adv: rtised letters this week. Dispenser Davis went to Columbia last week. Don't fail to planta good crop of Irish potatoes. Court is in session. If guilty, "sesso," and if not guilty, "sesso." lion. W. J. Talbert and family will beat their home in Parksville some time this week. Mrs. Anna Kidson, of Trenton, has recently taken cliarge of the Senn ho tel at Graniteville. The plows have started at last. Hope springs eternal in the human breast, and it is well that it does. What would editors have to write about in these "no news" days were it not for the weather and the oats? The office of registration was open ed on Monday of this week and will remain open for ten consecutive days. Senator M. C. Butler and family are expected home in a few days from Washington. Two young nuiles aud a milch cow, for sale, cheap. E. J. XORRIS. You can ride away from the blues and leave dull care behind if you own a buggy. If you don't, let Ramsey & Bland sell you one. County Auditor Epton, of Spartan burg, has his batter-cakes made with one-third cotton-seed meal, and says they are fine. The last issue of the Cotton Plant contains an excellent picture of Hon. W. J. Talbert accompanied by a short biographical sketch. Married, at the residence of the bride's father, by Rev. W. H. Kneece, on Feb. 24th, Mr. Yancy Holston, of Monetta, and Miss Ida Johnston. Greenwood has seven men and cor porations liable to the income tax. YT ow many has Edgefield? Not many now but wait until blackberries are ripe. By the nev railroad schedule trains leave Edgefieid at 9:15 a. m., and ar rive at 7 p. m. The midday trains ar rive and depart as hitherto. Presiding Elder Dickson will preach at Harmony on next; Saturday and Sunday the 9th and 10th of March; at Spanns on Sunday and Monday the 10th and 11th. Mr. K.L. Fox has just received a handsome line of ladies hairpins and belt buckles etc., beautiful in design and in great variety. Married, at the residence of Mr. J"uther"?Xlief, Edge/lehl?'comity, by the Rev. Sbearou3e, Mr. E. B. Luther, of Prosperity, and 3iiss Myra L. Wat son of Edgefield. Three cotton factories are in pro cess of construction in Greenville county, one at Pelzer, Spartanburg county, one at Gaffney, one at Bath, one at Laurens and so on and so forth. Married, on Wednesday evening February 27th, at the hom? of the bride's parents, by Dr. L. R. Gwalt iiey, Mr. Braxton Bragg Jones and Miss Lillie Jones, both of Edgefieid. Mr. Hays has just received another carload of MULKS, fine ones, at the reg ular old hard time figures. Take a look at them before you purchase. Rev. G. n. Burton, of Troy, will move back to McCormick this sum mer. Mr. J. M. Dorn, of the same place, will remove to his Domville planta tion. There will be a total eclipse of the moon next Sunday night, March 10th. The moon will cuter the earth's shad ow about eight o'clock and pass out of it a few minutes before one o'clock. We have heard of but one objection to a cotton factory, and that objection was from a farmer who lives near such a factory. He said '-the factory folks paid such good pricvs for eggs that he could'nt get any to nat." His wife sold 'em all. The village of Langley has sixteen hundred inhabitaris, the whole popula tion brought there by the factory. This shows what a factory would do for Edgefield-double the population at the least calculation. The Augusta Evening News thinks the prospect good for at least a half cr j y of oats, but we think even a half crop not within the range of the pos sibilities, unless it be the result of spring sowing. The young people of the Antioch section are invited to meet at the church on Sunday afternoon to con sider the matter of organizing a liter ary club. The county board of commissioners ia requested to meet at Edgefield on Tuesday next to make arrangements to borrow money to pay court ex penses. See notice in another column. The front window in the Methodist church at Abbeville is to be over twenty-one feet high, of stained glass. The principal figure in the window will be a life-sized picture of Jesus Christ bearing in his arm a young lamb. The window will cost some thing over three hundred and fifty .dollars. There are more than three hundred -varieties of Indian corn, "according to the Encyclopaedia Britannica, which differ more among themselves than Any other cereal." But this same E. B. says that corn meal does not make good bread, which shows that the dis tinguished and scholarly editors and compilers of this great work don't .know as much about corn bread as ~"the poorest and most ignorant ne .gfro in Edgefield County. Now that we've thawed out, let rejoice that we are still here, althouj somewhat nipped. Let us also obsen as one of l he consequences of the In period of phenomenal cold, th prices at Ramsey & Bland's have n shared in the general rise, but as her tofore, remain below zero. ' \ great many farmers in this cou; ty will not use a pound of commerci fertilizers this year, making a virti of necessity they say "its no count 1 how." We believe they are right, b they ought to have said so when th? were able to buy it. Mr. Pugh Jones, night-watchman the Edgefield Oil Mill, has kindly sei us a large and savory pone of brer made of cotton-seed meal. It WJ made with cotton-seed meal, butte milk, soda, and salt. All subscribei to the ADVERTISER paying up durin court will be given a smell and a bit provided the bread holds out. Jno. H. Carpenter of the Vauclu; section came up to Edgefield on Moi day of this week, "looking" as he sai "for the Democratic party bi could'nt find it." John says he wi and is yet a Mart Gary red-shii Democrat, that he is too poor to buy ( flannel, but is going to dye an. ol homespun shirt with pokebeiry juic and be a red-shirter once more befoi he dies We regret to note the death of M: M.

But ton conducting the funeral services It is indeed sad, the removal of such bright young man, just upon th threshold ol'a life promising so niue] usefulness, but -Greenwood Journal.

Something Curious. The Yorkville Yeoman tells of a wonderful peavme of this year's growth brought to that ollice last Wednesday. "It was ?58 inches long and 2>4 inches in diameter at its larg est part, a beet like root, proportion ately shaped and will six small branch roo;s. Nine distinct vines had grown from it, and from these vines a hand ful of pears had been gathered. The owner says that it has been living, to his knowledge, for two years, and that the vines died down during the win ter and sprouted out the next spring. It must have derived most of its nour ishment from the subsoil, as there was very little topsoil of a sandy, decom posed granite character. This is a cu riosity to us as it is to the gentleman on whose place it grew, and we would like to know if anybody else ever saw or heard of anything of ttie kind. Now, what the ordinary farmer will want to know is if the ordinary pea is such a good renovator of old and worn out soils, how much better is the pea now brought to their notice by The Yeoman, and we in turn want to say, if the poorest land in South Carolina will produce peas with that what a grand future the State must have be fore her!"

We secure patents und to induce people to keep track of their bright deat= wo offer a prize of one hun ired dollars to be paid on the first )f every month to the person who iubmits tons the most meritorious uventi m during the preceding south.

The idea of being able to invent something strikes most people as )eing very, difficult,; this delusion he Company wishes to dispel. It s tho ?imple things and small in rentions that make the greatest imouut of money, aud the complex mes are seldom profitable. Al nost everybody, at some time or mothar, conceives an idea, which, f patented, would probably bc vorth lo him a fortune. Unfortu nately such ideas are usually dis nissed without thought. Thft-sim )le inventions like the car v, vhich could be easily slid i lown without breaking tb ?enger's back, the sauce pa jollar button, the nut loc : . : lottie stopper, the snow t-.. . . ire things that almost everyone! ?ees some way of improving upon, ind it is these kind of inventions hat bring the greatest returns to ?he author. The prize we offer will be paid it the end of each mouth, whether he application has been acted ipon by the Patent Office or not. Every competitor must apply for i patent on his invention through is, and whether he secures the ?rize or not, the inventor will have i valuable present.
