Many instances are recorded where orchards and vineyards have failed to produce fruit until bee? were brought into the neighbor hood. All kinds of fruit will yield much larger crops of more perfect fruit in localities where there are bees than where there are no bees kept, andi some kinds, such as strawberries, plums, and cherries, will hardly bear without the presence of bees.

The conjunction of these two items, of children und sorghum, ?ray not appear to be relevant, but it is, all the same. Fating Mules and Horses. If you do not learn to ride the bicy cle this year, you never will, the why is that something else will supersede this vehicle in publi . .'uvor, a horse Jess three wheeled carriage for in stance, tiny little things that will run live miles with a pint of kerosene as motive power. And when that time arrives what will we do with the horses , and mules, eat em? Yes, eat 'em, in fact we have been eating 'em for the Kat twenty years as canoed roast cf. Wheat TS. Oats. Tbe wheat crop is good in Edgefield county but the oat crop is very poor. This reminds us of the statement we have seen published that wheat as a forage crop has superseded oats and even timothy hay in some sections. A livery stable mao from Kentucky, in our town last w?ek, remarked, that in his country farmers had in many in stances given np other kiods of forage and hay for whe.tt and that it, wheat, was consid?r?e even better than timothy, the king of bay crops. He said the wheat in cut when in the milk and cured and biJed. Some of our best farmers agree in this estimate of wheat for b*y and will try it ts such the coming seiisoo. Hr. Chris. Williams of our suburbs, ha.? experimented al ready in this lina and is enthusiastic for wheat as against oats for a forage crop, and Chris, knows a good thing when be sees it and sees it as soon as any farmer in Eli ge field county. If roar best girl retases you. don't foe disheartened. Get a new Buggy and Harneas of Ramsey & Bland, and try again-with some other girl.

Lynch's. ?m Cherry ripe at the Luray. When you ne?d a bottle of Pure Rye Whiskey for Medicinal purposes, ask at your Dispensary for the genuine and original Bakers Pure Rye Whis key, E. Walter's & Co. propritors. Hope Doesn't Enrich. You can't get rich on hope; you may hope all day that someone will come along and saw your wood, but that doesn't keep the tire going. The way to get rich is to save money ; and the* way to save money is to trade at Ramsey & Eland's. Leading Onward and Upward. Notwithstanding the depressed con dition of business, there h a decided movement tn the direction of improv ed methods. In the scientific world the greatest strideii have been made In the employment of electricity and from the great advance made in the last few yeara it is reasonable to ex pect t kr.i it will become the great mo tor of the world, utilizing the wind and the streams to generate it. In agriculture the tendency is to make it truly a Science whick by the applica tion of business methods will enlarge its benefits to mankind. The trend is to secure the economy of labor, time, and space in the, culture and handling of farm products and the feeding of the soil and the plant. The Southern Cultivator, Atlanta, Ga., for over fifty years has been laboring to secure a more enlightened system of Agricul ture. The June number of the Culti vator will contain, in addition to its various well-fllled departments ?over ing every detail of effort on the farm, a prize essay by VV. T. Stone, of Geor gia, on "Intensive System of Farming or-the Best Method of Increasing the Production of Crops." The subject is presented in an abie manner, and in its valuable suggestions on this theme is worth the price of the paper for one year. Ocher prize essays of equal impor tance and value will be given from time to time, such as : The Best Rotation of Crops for Or- I di nary Farms, by W. T. Stone, of Georgia ? Successful Dairy Farming in the South, by M. Allison, of South Caro lina. The Cultivation of Grapes, by Jud. Pierce, of Alabama. The Home and Fireside, by Mrs. G. A. Marsh, of North Carolina. Other excellent papers on the same topios will also be given.

To THE PUBLIC: I sincerely thank the good friends who kind ly nominated me for the State Senate and if I did not have some important business on hand which will necessitate an extended ab sence from the State at an early d<ite, I might run the race with a nattering prospect of success. But being uuable to mako a thorough canvass of the county and for still other r?sous entirely satisfactory to myself, I decline the nomination. I am deeply grateful to those who have in per son and by letter tendered me their support. Re ^ct fully, MES H. TILLMAN. The Edgefiek hungers Re-or ganized.-J Barbecue at Meriwa :er Hall July ?nd. DEAR ADVERTISER : Cuba must be free! but however all- right it mav be, we have nothing to do with it. Let us busy Luvselves with graver and more important matters. There was organized or rather re-organized, atCheatham's Store in Meriwether, in March last, that one time illustrious troop of horse-the ''Edgefield Rangers." All Edgefield knew the Rangers under the leadership of Capt. Jno. A. Butler. At the organization Capt. Butler waa again called to the command. Walter Cheatham, another old Ranger, was elected 1st Lieut, with J. B. Shaw and Thos. H. Briggs second lieuten ants. Several old members are to ? be found in ranks, and the drill ! shows they have noe forgotten tl-vir cunning. The company bas dee ded to : call attentiou to their existence by giving a big barbecue, picnic, 1 and dance on the secoud of July 1 at the Meriwether Hall, and the 1 public is earvestly advised to be present. Things are never done by halves in the Meriwether pre cinct, and they wont be this time. So come everybody, come regard- 1 less of the weather, come Cuba or no Cuba, come and laugh and go home and you will live longer. SECRETARY. < Mr. Mette Tries the Case. INTRODUCES His OWN WITNESSES, SELECTS HIS OWN JURY, SITS AS JUDGE IN HIS OWN CASE AND, AS ?. i A MATTER OF FACT IF NOT OF LAW, CONVICTS THE PREACHER. ] i Editor Advertiser : If we do not get free silver at Chicago, it is our duty to bolt. This is so apparent, that it seems a waste of tim? to ? talk about >t. It is hardly neces sary to prove a self-evident propo- 1 Bitiou. You enter into co-partner ship with A and B. You soon find < that their methods, if persiste? in, will . run the business into the ground. You remonstrate with ; them, and try to get them to pur- < sue a different policy, but they re- ' fuse. Heve you not the uudeuia- ; ble right to withdraw from the firm, and to form a co-partnership , with C and D, who are prospering, and in whose methods you have confidence? I dare any one to de ny that. We now have a political : co-partnership with Mr. Yankee, who is running our business, and we propo3e to withdraw f.-om the firm, and to form a co-partner ship with Mr. Western Man, whom we consider more honest and reli able. Is jhere any harm in that? But I have another illustration, 1 and a better one still. You are a member of au orthodox church. Perhaps you helped to organize it. It was organized for the purpose of worshiping God. You go into a Conference of the church, and fiud 1 a majority in favor of repudiating the worship of God, ?.nd in favor of worshipping the devil. You pick up your hat and start out. A good brother comes to you and says: "Since you came into this Conference, you are bouud by its action. Don't you believe in ma jority rule ? Stay with us and worship the devil about four years, and it may be by that time we will have things our way again !" If I mistake not, .you would look him straight in the eye au I say:'"-Ei ther you are a fool, or you take me for one!" and you would continue your progress toward the door. Politically speaking, the mug- 1 wumps are the only decent, res- 1 pectable people in the country. If it were not for the mugwumps, the < political party in powei would al- ; ways be in power, unless the other i party conld raise the most chil- i dren. ( JOHN A. METTE. Trenton, S. C. Children's Day at Bethel. MR. EDITOR: Please allow me to make mention of childrens day held with Bethel church la?t Sat urday. We had a very pleasaut oc casion of it, the children did re markably weil with their pieces. Miss Janie Quattlebaum deserves special mention for her excellent piece entitled "only a dream. We had a host of candidates with us, and had the pleasure of listening to Mr. Simkins and Mr. Evans. They gave us some good, sound ad vice. In going home some of the mothers got their babies mixed and got about half way fcome before they found out their mistake. Only one thing camed the day not tobe ono of unalloyed pleas ure and enjoyment to all, and that was au aocideut which happened to Mrs. Carrie Clegg and two of her children.
