The Lexington Dispatch. w Wednesday, June 29, 19C4. Nature Study. When study and lessons sre mentioned tbe idea of the school and the teacher is suggested. When one talks to children the parents about the study of nature they do not feel ibafc they have time and opportunity for the work. They seem to forget that they are engaged in it every day. Nature study embraces a knowledge of things as they appear. Get the facte now aDd a knowledge of the laws that regulate all organized and living obiects will come later. Chil dren are always interested in stones, streams and the things hidden under the earth's surface. Teach them to keep their eyes open and to collect specimens and to watch the stratification of clay and rock as it appears in gullies and railway cu*s. Let them turn their eyes upward at l;? aBd learn the names of a few cBteliatioDS. By degrees they will become astronomers before they know ifc. The habits of domestic anim&l9 will form an interesting study. The different ways in which tbey drink water and feed and take their rest j will afford subjects for consideration. Plants and their growth, the leaves, j blades, Sowers and fruit will all prove interesting. Bags and all insects, worms and all creeping things are worth a little investigation. Nature's text book is always open. The pages present fresh and interesting matter ever* morning. The glories of the night are spread out in the beaveDS and clouds and storms, thunder aDd lightning furnish grand panoramas. The evening sud, with the aid of a little vapor gives visions of beauty that transcend the genius of all artists. Let teachers and psrent encourage the children to study these lessons, which will prove a pleasure and not a hateful task. Safeguard the Children. Notwithstanding all that is done by boards of health and charitably inclined persons the death rate among small children is very high during the hot weather of the summer months in the large cities. There is not .probably one case of bowel complaint in a hundred, however, that could not be cured by the timely use of Chamberlain's Colic, Gholeraand Diarrhoea Remedy.

He stated that they were baying best implements and labor Baving machinery and improving their land and making better erope. That brings up this question: Who is the best farmer? It is not the professional man, active or retired, who does fancy farming and raises a bushel of wheat that will cost $1 50 or a 30 cent chicken that will cost 80 cents. The best farmer, of course, has to look to the support of his family in the first place. - In the second place, he must have an eye to the gradual improvement of bis farm. The good farmer seeks to lower the cost of production until he gets it to the minimcm. He does not strivo to make fifteen bales of cotton to the horse at the cost of twenty bales. He also lays up a few dollars as a reserve fund to held out in sickness, drought and unforeseen disasters. By degrees h8 gets his farm in such condition that his neighbors praise him and get valuable lessons from bis methods. He also adds to the comforts of the home every year. He provides liberally i for the education and social enjoyment of his children. He always i gets more money out of his farm j than he puts in. The State Encampment. The State militia will go into camp ! by regiments. The lack of tents sufficient for all the troops render the plan neceBBary. The place selected is Ridgewood in the suburbs of Columbia. The 5rat regiment will more in July 5:h. After one week they will evacuate the camp and another regiment will move in until all have had a good time. It will ; help Columbia and what helps Colombia helps Lexington. So fall in. Uncle Sam foots the bill. ? ifmni immmsoliciior \ f ^ What the Papers in Other Counties Have to Say of Lexington's $ $ Candidate for That Office. $ * $ Running Unopposed From Lexington County. $ Jf Johntson News. ^ The readers of i be News tLi< week have Captain George Btil ^ \ Tiromerman as the first and only candidate who asks for your * \ eufirage as a candidate for Solicitor of the Fifth Judicial Circuit \ ^ to succeed Solicitor Thurmond, who is not a candidate for reelection.
