There was a very small attendance at the Farmers' meeting here on last Thursday, owing to the fact that the I object of the meeting was not generally known and this being a busy sea son with the farmers. The few farmers present, however, had the pleasure of listening to an able presentation of the Farmers' Union by its State President, Hon. O. P. Goodwin, of Laurens. Mr. Riley, of Saluda, also made an address to the people along the line of organization. Gamblers in Jail. t'i' Deputy Sheriff L. C.

Hiller, psstor of St. Stephen's church, exchanged pulpits Sunday with Rev. Kline, pastor of the "Blue" church, in the Fork. Rev. Kline preached a strong and impressive sermon. He is a fine speaker and handled his subject well. The large congregation was delighted; yea, "carried away" with his sermon. Rev. Hiller, 80*we are told, likewise pleased his hearers at the "Blue" church. During the service Miss Caro Efird sang sweetly, and with great effect, "Face to Face." She is possessed with an unusually sweet, clear voice, and her solos never fail to bring expressions of praise from those who | hear her. Fine Plums. Col. D. T. Barr brought to the farmers' mooting last Thursday a limb of plums, not over a foot and a half long, containing about 75 well developed nlnms. The tree from which these plums were taken, was grafted on a cherry stump and Col. Barr calls them the cherry plum. I I The Li j!
