In some sections of the county the stand of cotton was so poor that far mers have ploughed it up and planted over, some of the land in cotton and some in corn. Flour has gone up at least $1.40 per barrel since April. Everything in fact has advanced in price, there being a general improvement in the business outlook. Capt. George Lake, Capt. Thos. W.

She was buried at Bethel Bap tist church, in Newberry County. May 15,1895. -Newberry Observer It is the general desire on the part of all factions in Edgelield county, so far as we can gather, that Governor Sheppard should be one of . the delegates to the constitutional convention. We do not know Gov ernor Sheppard's sentiments, inten tions or desires in this matter, but do not think he would decine to ac cept an election to this body if prac tically unanimous, as we know it would be, especially as it could be made the meaus of cementing our peo ple once more in the bonds of a fraternal-political union. Let us get together. A Happy Ending. OTTKRVII.LK, VA,-"For fifteen years I was a great sufferer from Dyspepsia, and nothing relieved me until I tried Simmons Liver Regulator.

PJDITOR: The farmers have taken advantage of good weather, the horse and plows are doing good service. There is to be Childrens Day at Zoar, on Sal ur day before the sec oud Sunday in Jul}'. We had some of the Higgins Ferry boys and girls in our midst Monday. Come again Miss Joe wc will gladly welcome you. There were twenty-three dollars of missionary money collected at Zoar on last Sunday. Miss Mamie Bouknight is still teaching the Zoar school, she will continue to teach through June and July. The young people around here have gone to travelling in ox carts, that certainly looks like rough roads, or busy horses.

Young and handsome Willie Crouch, has bought, him a new buggy, that looks like riding Miss Mamie o'ten. Croquet is all the go now, tho young people play at Colemans every Saturday afternoon-. Some of our boys visit Richard son vii le very often, there must be some attraction up there. The people, of Butler church have bought them a new organ. Miss Mattie Forrest whoso ill ness wo mentioned in our last, ie now much better. The report that* Mr. Wilber Ri kard was accidentally killed is quite a mistake, he passed through these parts last week. FARMER GIRL. Denny's, S. C. Irish Potatoes. The North Carolina Experiment station gives the following rules for making a second crop of Irish po tatoes : The potatoes from which it is desired to grow *he second crop should be allowed to romain where they grew till perfectly ripe and tho tops are dead. If they are se lected from the culls in digging the partly matured crop for ship ping, there will be much uncer tainty as to their sprouting. When, the tops are dead take them up and allow them to remain a day or so exposed to the light until they turn greenish. Then spread them in any convenient place on tho ground and cover with pine or other straw. Sprinkle the straw and thereafter never allow it to got dry all through. Prepare the land as for the ear ly crop except that the fertiliza tion need not be so heavy, and run out the rows by going twice in a furrow with a turn-plow and clean out the furrow full six inches deep. As the potatoes under the straw begin to start tho eyes, which will be from the first to the mid dle of August, plant them in the cleop furrow.? but cover th^in not mop- thu i: an inch over the inp of tho tabers until thegrenn ieuves begin to grow. Then gradually fill iii the soil to Wvm :;s they grow, until it ia level. The after ni! ture musl be us level <'?s poi?? i ble and im hilling should be dun", the object al Ibis reason nf the ye*r being to prevent the drying out of tho soil. The potatoes will sprout curlier if, before bedding them underilla straw, a small pk-ce is clipped off one end and rejecled. No further cutting should be done when planting. The planting should all be done by the middle of August. This crop will gron green until tho fro.?! cuts the tops down, mid their immaturity pre vents their sprouting before plant ing time, so that when they grow it is with the strong growth of thc terminal hud, which gives then: a great advantage over the northern potatoes, that have baen long oui of thc ground and have had the sprouts rubbed off them in the cellar. At the election in Panesviile 5o7 women voted and they elected both their candidates. When the old parties held their conventions they snubbed the women and nomina ted thc m^n for ollie0. This rous ed the ladies to action and they went to work and snowed the men under so deep thal they will not be heard ol' politically again. They got ?ut carriages and gather ed in the ladies from all parts of the town.-Ashtabula (0.) News. A No AV Whiskey Cure. The Greenville Reflector reports a new cure for drunkenness. A man bailly under the influence of whiskey applied t>> a merchant of that town for something to relieve his bad feeling. The merchant gave :i dose of common epsom sails and the intoxicated fellow drank it and staggered off. About twen ty minutes later he was seen to pass the store apparently perfectly sobpr. Impressed by this the mer chant tri< d the sall? on a second drunken man, who reported that soon after taking it all effect of HIP whisk? y left him.
