(For The Ledger, ns VAN \YY( K ITEMS. ,n, ! M- Mr Editor:?When my last if- communication apj>eared in the Ledger, our people were coined plaining of dust and diy weather, ?r- hut now their complaints are mud and too much water. There is some complaint made against one e<l of our thrifty colored farmers, McC Alexander, connecting him with the great down pour of rain ,v on last Thursday afternoon. On i Wednesday night, Alexander e(j heard a great commotion in his j). fowl house and on examination found n large black chicken snake, ^ dispotching his young fowls. He j soon dispatched his snRkeship, , which wn.s of an unusual size, and 0(| measured seven feet in length. Alexander had often heard that a dend snake of this kind, if hung j up in dry weather would bring , rain. He knew, we needed rain 'aS ! very much and thought it would ir- l j be well to hang up the monster. In a few hours the clouds began >d: n . to collect and before night our of I . . . . . I country was deluged with a very heavy rain, and Alexander says he was uluio-t washed away. His it- 1 . neighbors complain that he ought go f . ~ to have hud more sense than to hang up sin h a large snake, that in - ; . he might have known it would "" , . i;t\e muhi^iii 100 ueuvv :i rain. Now whether Alexander's snake had nnylhihg t*? d<? with bringing r, rain or not ?tin* rain eunio and has been coming mora <>r less 1st . evorv dav and some of the henv I'd ; .

Thev are busy sre | . sowing and planting their stubble e J lands in peas and corn. They are ^ looking after food crops. ^ j Van Wyek is looking forward - to a pleasant time at the dedijj cation of Van Wvck M K Church ,, on 1st Sunday in duly bv Bishop ^ Duncan, and theeonuneneeinent of Van Wyek school on the night ^ of duly eth, which has gotten up an e tertaining program for the . oe--anion.

Presiding Kldcr Campbell was on v? hand and dispatched business in w- his usual dignified manner. The j finances were small, and indicate the scarcity of money at this time of year with our people.
