C. <* 3m. i^' mwhmI GLOBE DRY I iEET, hare of Your Valued THE SPRING OF PERPETUAL YOUTH Those Who Quaff Its Limpid Waters j Always Have the Bioom of Health. To the Editor of the Dispatch; Leaving the cool shades of Greenville on Monday morning, I proceeded via LaurenB and Spartanburg to the loDg famous Glenn Springs. Here I stopped to rest in the shades of the gigantic oaks that have so long defied summer's storm and winter's blasts, and to drink at the fountain that renews life in both young and old. It was lucky for me that I reached here just ahead of the excursions and secured a boarding place, for so many came in that they seemed to find it difficult to get boarding places. Our whole Southern country is well represented here. The old and the youDg, the sick and the well and the middle aged are here. Many for their health and some for pleasure. The sick drink water, eat all they caD and swap grievances. Those who are here for pleasure eat, drink, crack jokes and take a hand in about everything that comes aloDg. The young make "goo goo eyes" aDd "bill and coo" and parade and eDgagage in all the arts of Cupid. Widows aDd gay giggling girls are plentiful and many acquaintances are formed here that i end in matrimony. i Sunday, the 25th, we attended services at the Presbyterian church, and listened to a most excellent sermon by the Rev. Mr. Beckwortb, a Methodist minister from Barnwell, S. C. i It has rained every day since I i have been here except Sunday, and all crops are spreading themselves. I i don't think I ever saw finer crops of . cotton and corn than are now be- l tween Laurens and Spartanburg, i People from different portions of the State report excellent crops, with few exceptions. A farmer from Colleton 1 county said he has fifty acres of cot- 1 ton in which a man can hide com- , pletely, and one hundred acres of 1 corn that he is sure will make him i thirty bushels per acre. It costs him i about twenty-seven cents per bushel till he gets it housed. He says his cotton costs him fully five cents per pound. It pays him better to raise corn than cotton, and it is his opinion that if our farmers would pay more attention to corn and hay culture, they would soon recover from their present financial embarrassment. Now, on bis cotton he realizes but a small profit, while on his corn he certainly will realize seventy-five per cent. I have heard of similar instances in different portions of the State. Now, while all our farmers cannot do what this man does, cannot they do so proportionately? Pay more attention to corn and hay culture, and it seems they could soon better their conditions. This morning I leave for Asheville, N. C, to spend a few days before going home, and if I see anything that I think would be of interest to your readers, I will give it to you for next week. H.
