In a private note to the Baptist
Courier of last week Rev. M. E. Parrish,
of Johnston, says: "Bro. G. P. White
led to the matrimonial altar last Tues
day evening, October 22, Miss Pauline
Wright. Sile was one of the most
amiable and consecrated young wo
man in our church. The writer offi
ciated. We extend our sincere con
gratulations to this happy couple.
Bro. White is pastor of Dry Creek and
Ebenezer churches, Edgefleld county
He graduated from Forman last June,
and is a young man of ability, and if
spared will be one ol' our most useful
men."
How to Make Greens.
Seme weeks ago we made the state
ment in the ADVKRTISKK that cotton
seed "had crawled up to 12^cts,"
whereupon some one of our readers, a
farmer man, went to the Edgefield oil
mill with seed and demanded that lig
ure for them. The oil mill people
were only paying 10><cts and Jeclined
to buy at 12>?cts. and denied the soft
impeachment that they had offered
any such price as 12>? cents. The far
mer mau got mad and carried his seed
back home. The oil mi'l men were
right for we did not get our figures as
to the price of cotton seed from them,
at the time we published the local, but
from a darkey who was bringing in a
steer load of seed toa man who want
ed them to put in his garden to mike
turnip greens next spriug. The far
mer mau was right, too, because the
cotton seed are worth more than 10)?
cents as a fertilizer. But [if he had
only thought a little he would right,
then and there bantered the oil mill
folks to swap him a ton of cotton-seed
meal for two tons of seed, and they
would have done it and the farmer
man's ton of meal would have been
worh traore, a great deal mor. to him
than the two tons of seed.
