Many instances^are recorded where
orchards and vineyards have
failed to produce fruic until bees
were brought into the neighborhood.
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, and
some kinds, such as strawberries,
plums, and cherries, will hardly bear
without the presence of bees.

Wheat vs. Oats.
Tbe wheat crop is good in Edgefield
county but the ost crop is very poor.
This reminds us of the statemerit we
have seen published tbst whest as a
forage crop bas superseded oafs and
even timothy hay in some sections. A
livery stable man from Kentucky, in
our town last week, remarked, that in
bis country Farmers badin many in
stances gi vee np other kinds of forage
and hay for wheat sr d that it, wheat,
was considered even better tbsn
timothy, the king of bsy er?os. He
asid the wheat s cut wben in the milk
and cured srid .isled. Some of our best
farmot-s agree in this estimate of wheat
for bay snd will try it ss such the
coming sesson. Mr. Chris. Wi I Jiu.ns of
our suburbs ta? experimented al
ready in this line snd is enthusiastic
for whest 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 Ebgefleld county.

You can't get rich on hope; you

that doesn't keep the lire going. The
way to get rich is to save money ; and
the way to save money is to trade at

\ Notwithstanding the depressed con
? dit ion of business, there i ; a decided
j movement in the direction of improv
ed methods. In the scientific world
the greatest strides have been made in
the employment of electricity and
from the great advance made in the
last few yeara it is reasonable to ex<
peet that 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 which by the applica
tion of business methods will enlarge
its benefits to maukind. 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 .lune number of the Culti
vator will contain, in addition to its
various well-filled departments cover
ing every detail of effort on the farm,
a prize essay by W. T. Stoue, of Geor
gia/on "intensive System of Farming
or-the Best Method of Increasing trbe
Production of Crops." The subject is
presented in an able manner, and in
its valuable suggestions on this theme
is worth the price of the paper for one j ]
year.
Other prize essays of equal impor
tance and value will be given from
time to time, such as :

Mr. Tillman Declines.
To THE PUBLIC : I sincerely
thank the good friends who kind
ly nominated me for the State
Senate and if I did nut'have some
important business on hand which
will necessitate an extended ah
sence from the State at an early
dste, I might run the race with ?
flattering prospect of success.
But being unable 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 tondered me
their support.

The Edgefield Rangers Re-or

at Meriwether Hall
July 2nd.
DEAR ADVERTISER : Cuba must
be free! but however all' right it
may be, we have nothing to do
with it. Let us busy ?.urselves
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. Ino.
A. Butler. At the organization
Capt. Butler was again called to
the command. Walter Cheatham,
another old Ranger, was elected
Ut Lieut, with J. B. Shaw and
Thos. H. Briggs second lieuten
int& SeveraH old members aro to
be found in ranks, and the drill
shows they have not forgotten
their cuuniug.
The company has dee ded to
:all attention to their existence
hy giving a big barbecue, picnic,
?nd dance on the second ot* J.uly
it the Meriwether Hall, and the
public is earvestly advised to be
jrestnt. Things ?ire never done
jy halves in the Meriwether pre
;iuct, aud they wor t be this time.
3o come everybody, come regard
?es of the weather, come Cuba or

Edit?r Advertiser : If we do not
jet free silver at Chicago, it is our
luty to bolt. This is so apparent,
hat it seems a waste of tim? to
;alk about it. It is hardly heces
<ary to prove a self-evident propo
rtion. You enter into co-partner
?hi;p* with A and B. iou soon find
;hat thalr methods, if persisted* in,
will . run the business into the
ground. Ycu remonstrate with
;bem, and try to get them to pur
sue a different policy, but they re
fuse. Huve you not the undenia
o\e right to withdraw from the
5rm, and to form a co-partnership
(vith C and D, who are prospering,
iud in whose methods you have
?onfidence? I dare any one to de
ny that. We now have a political
jo-partnership with Mr. Yankee,
vho is running our business, and
ve propose to withdraw f ?om the
irm, and to form a co-partuer
?hip with Mr. Western Man, whom
ve consider more honest and reli
ible. Is }hore any harm in that?
But I have another illustration,
ind a better one still. You are a
nember of an orthodox church.
?erhap8 you helped to organize it.
't was organized for the purpose of
vorshiping God. You go into a
Conference of the church, and find
i majority in favor of repudiating
he worship of God, and in favor
)f worshipping the devil. You
>ick up your hat and start out. A
mod brother comes to you aud
jays; "Sinceyou came into this
Conference, you are bouud by its
ictiou. Don't you believe in ma
tority rule ? Stay with us and
ivor8hip the devil about four years,
md it may be by that time we will
jave things our way again !" If I
nistake not, .you would look him
jtraight in the eye an t say:'"Ei
;h?r you are a fool, or you take me
for one !" and you would continue
rour progress toward the door.
