Bermuda Grass. ;
Mr. FnrroR: You were greatly inter?
ested last year in my cultivation of
lucerne and Bermuda grass. I have
mowed three crops from my one and one
fifth acres this season to the 19th July,
getting in all thirty wagon loads. The
lasu load I had weighed to ascertain the'
yield. > 1 sold it readily on the streets'^
$1.50por 100 pounds. Taking the weight
of this load as an average, and it was
below rather than above, and the rate at
which it was sold, I have already bar
vested from 10,000 to 12,000 pounds good
hay, worth over $160. The cost of har
vestingr including hire -of mower, will
not exceed an outlay of $10: ..cost, of
production, thirty wagon loads; of bare
yard manure; home made,' broad-casted
over the plot last winter, worth say $25.
I harvested five -crops from tho same
piece of ground last year.
How does this compare with cotton
raising,? Northern .hay, you., know,..is

~~.The Cnlturo of Tobacco.
Mr.^Editor ^ As it has. .heen some
Itime'sincejl noticed anj-Word $f-encour?
agement on the culture of tobacco, Z will
give the readers of your paper some dots
"on"the "subject of the filthy weed, as it
may be of some benefit in the future to
those whose intention it may bo to go
into the business. ' For the past three
years it has been a question among our
farmers whother wc could grow tobacco
successfully in our- State, or whether it
would bo profitable if grown. Notwith?
standing all. that lias been said about
tobacco; very littleof it has oeen planted
in our County. If we doubt it growing
:successfnlly, how will we know until we
try it? If' we doubt there being any
mvney in it, how will we know until we
have given it a fair trial ? \Ve have a
risk to run fa any crop we grow, and this
year has been very risky on all crops,
especially the cotton crop, which, at
present,' looks very discouraging to its
r . ..ter. Yet cotton is the great king,
-aud it is useless to say we will lay it
down and try to make money out of any?
thing else. Wo think there is money in
cotton - simply because wc use to make
monkey-by growing it; But there is no
money in it now, as it costs what it will
bring to make it. There is no money in
anything that costs its value to make it.
I have laid the rusty-bladed cotton hoe
aside, and am cultivating 3,185 plants of
tobacco. My rows are. 3J by 4 feet. The
Spring , having been favorable on all
plants, X had little or no trouble to secure
a stand by the 10th of Jane. I am well
pleased with the cultivation of it. I
plowed it with a cotton sweep-twice and
hoed it one lime. I found it very easy
to manage up to Jane, tbat'heing the
month for the horned worm to make its
appearance. Since then I have gone
over the. plants twice a week, and now
consider myself somewhat an expert in
the- worm-killing business.. I am now
succoring and toppi?g. I find tho suc?
coring equal to the worming, which is
very - constant,' but not very hard work.
I would ither cultivate tobacco than
cotton. T'do not know-how much ray
crop will bring en the market.
Give us a tobacco factory at Anderson,
and let every farmer in tho County plant
a'fialf acre in the v-oed, and we will
-soon be convinced that it is a money
crop.- Tobacco has built towns and cities
in Virginia and North Carolina. It will
do the same thing here. D, H. G.
Dibbling Cotton.
. This mode of planting cotton is resort?
ed to on account of bad seed; and bad.
seasons. About twenty-five years ago
was the first and last lime I bad to resort
to this mode of planting. The former
time, was on account of- fine seed, to make. J
them go as far as possible. I then: could
not understand the reason of so bad a
stand?seed, season aod mode of plant?
ing being good.. This season having
Slanted defective seed, and the season
eing the worst I remember, I had to
resort to dibbling in order u> save the
litlTe that come up. Ten hands were em?
ployed a day and a half opening, drop?
ping and covering. The work was very
well done. The result was a complete
failure. Perhaps there are not 500
stalks thus planted now standing. I havo
heard of others who met with the same
result.. Now, it is of importance to know
tohy? thd sejed will not come. I have
thought a great deal about it, and the re
suit of my thoughts is this: The holes
for the reception of seed are made with
the corner of a hoe: ? Ten or fifteen seed
are deposited in the bottom of this small
space; the seeds ar6 piled one upon the
other and the earth surrounds them as a
whole not coming in contact with each.
One separately; as it should, to effect per?
fect, germination. The result is that if
they do so germinate it is imperfect, and
the plants are puny. And even if they
survive, they are almost sure to die after
they are thinned.
The plants all being jammed together,
the surplus ones cannot be taken out
without lacerating the roots of the one
left. The mechanical obstruction of one
seed to. the other on account of being
massed together, prevents the germination
and the necessary laceration of the roots
in thinning are the causes, I think, of
the above result and I am sure I shall
never dibble again, and would advise
others never to do it. '
There are now being manufactured
cotton -planters to space cotton, but tbey
will bo objectionable for same reasons.

What tSrcw From a Negro's Foot.

It was rather an amusing incident that
first brought to the attention of a truck
farmer, of Charleston, S. O., tb? impor?
tance; of firming the soil. It seems, that
a gentleman'o? color, having the consti?
tutional weaknesii "for chickens peculiar
to..some of his race, got into a henroost
aud. helped, himself bountifully. In
?evading; the high-road, he struck a -bee*'|
line through a newly sown .turnip field,
where he left tracks that led'to his detec?
tion. But these tracks did more. They
?hbjwedi. io Squire Buncombe^, whose
chickens had suffered,, that wherever the
foot of the- colored citizen had fallen,
there he had a "stand" of turnips, arid
nowhere else'(for they had been loosely
sown 'and the weather was dry). The
lesson was heeded and has been worth
tens of thousands of dollars to the farm?
ers of South Carolina, who, it Beems,
were never before sufficiently alive to the
importance of firming the soil until'the
unfortunate negro showed him the way,.

THE OPEN DRAW.
"Now, promise me, Royal? Please
promise!"
Grace Arden looked up into her lover's
face with wistful blue eyes and cheeks
stained with faint crimson.
Royal Meriam looked at her with the
laugh of conscious superiority.
"What nonsense, Grace! As if there
were any real danger ?"
"There is always danger, Royal, in your
business, and with?with that habit 1"
s 'iHabit>.>Grajpe ? - Now you are going r.
'little'-' too -far.- ? I don't drink any more
than , other men.' It is not a confirmed
"ha?it with me and never will be."
"Good-by, Royal!"
"You won't kiss me ? You are vexed ?"
"Only sorry, Royal. Because I know
that papa will never let me marry a man
who drinks I"
Royal Meriam turned on his heel, and
he strode away, muttering something
about "narrow-minded old fools, who
expected every one to be cut after their
own pattern."
But he had walked only a little distance
wheri the cloud cleared away from his
face, and the old, careless, good-natured
smile once more came back.
"Dear little Gracie 1" he said to him?
self. "Perhaps she's right, after all. I
believe I am getting to be moro fond of
a stray glass than I ought to be, but of
course there's no danger. A man can
always control himself. Still I'll go back
to-morrow and make peace-with the little
blue eyed kitten, and if she wants me to
promise, why I'll promise."
The "Shepherd's Arms" was an unpre
tendiug little village hostelry through
whose drawn red curtains the evening
lights shone cheerily, and Royal Meri
am's boon companions welcomed him,
uproarously.
"You're .coming to the end of your
rope,'old fellow," said one. "The super?
intendent, is going to strike everybody
that drinks' a social glass off from 'the
list. Says it aiu't business-like?can't
afford to run any risks."
"I don't know what tho world's coming
to, for my part," said another, looking
into the bowl of his short black pipe.
"A man might as well be a slave and
done with it."
"I've heard something of it before,"
said"Meriam,.carelessly. "I don't know
but what it is a wise enough regulation,
on the whole. But there's one thing cer?
tain: I'll drink the superintendent's
health to night, if I never do again."
A general laugh echoed this assertion
of Royal Meriam; and in the hour or
two that followed poor Grace Arden's
piteous request, Grace Arden's tear
brimming blue eyes were entirely forgot
.: v- ? - ?- * ??
I "Drunkv^I drunk 1 i Never was more
sober in my'life. Yes, yes, I know it's
time to start, and here I am fresh as a
cricket."
... Royal Meriam swuug himself to his
place on the glittering, fire-throated lo?
comotive with the careless ease and light?
ness of a mountaineer.
. "Go ahead," he called out..
' The depot-master looked curiously at
him.
"You:mhy not: be drunk,5' said he, soito
voce, "but you have been drinking, my
fine fellow and you'll get reported at.
headquarters before the world is twenty
four hours older."
So saying he drew a little leather mem?
orandum-book' out-of his vest pocket,
and wrote down the words, "Meriam,
engineer, Flying Dart," upon it, with the
slow, mechanical ' accuracy of one who
corisidersin his own mind."
Meriam fully believed in his own as-,
sertion that ho was not drunk*. He bad
been .drinking a good deal, but then he
knew his head could stand more than the
average 1>Fbrains. He felt a sort of
lightness?a jocular, content?as he sat
there at his post'. The lights along the'
road sparkled more prominently than
usual; the stars seemed to shino with
unwonted .^brightness/and" once or -twice*
he/chught himself huskily, answering
some one who bad not spoken.
All of a sudden he grew sleepy?his
brain seemed to become confused.
"All right," said.he?"all? right L I'll
back the Flying Daft against any engine
on the road. Why, she couldn't go
wrong if she, was. to try. ?Are we?are
we'far frbin trie draw-bridge?"
The fireman suddenly started to hin
feet, with a hoarse, gasping cry.
"The signal ?" shouted he. "The red
light! Stop her, for God's sake! Sound
down breaks! We are on the bridge, and
the draw is open!"
In less than a second the mist and
drowsiness; and:the fatal lethargy, seemed
to clear away from the engineer's brain,
and he bad fully comprehended the awful
terror of their position?tho express train
rushing at dizzy speed toward the yawn?
ing gulf, beneath "which lay the black
river.
The signal I And he had not seen it.
Mechan.cally he sounded the whistle,
sharp and shrill?two brief, unearthly
shrieks?and then sprang out into the
darkness, through which- the red light
streamed like an eye of sullen fire.
He had done what he could to save the
fated train, and he gsasped blindly at the
one- chance in five hundred for his own
life.
Ho sprang, and striking, .against tho
beams, lost all consciousness in the in?
stant that tho train skimmed by him, its
long array of lights gleaming and vanish?
ing, and faces here and there looking out
of the windows, all unconscious that they
were going to Death!
* * * ?? * # --
A bleak December day, with the snow
flakes clicking against the window-panes,
a wood fire crackling on the hearth, and
Grace Arden's light figure coming and
going like a little br^wn-robed Sister of
Charity?Royal Meriam's eyes vaguely
took in these things, lying among his
pillows, before he remembered?
Remembered! Remembered, that he
was an outcast among men?a murderer.
"Grace," he gasped, "tell me. How
came I here ? How was T saved ?"
"They found you on * j bridge, dear.
Hush ! You must not ta;g much. You
are very weak and feeble. You were
quite unconscious, and terribly bruised."
"And?the train? Was .it totally
wrecked ?"
"It wasn't wrecked at all," said Grace,
with brighted face. "For tho draw was
notvopen.". , >Oi:
"Not open ?"
"No; it had been, but was just closed
again, and the men had not yet taken
down the-open signal when the express
rushed on without any warning whatever.
They stopped it on the other side and
missed yo?."
"No one was killed then ?'.' he shudder?
ed, feeling as if a mountain of horror
was lifted from his breast. ?
"No one.", j .
"Grace," he whispered, hoarsely, draw?
ing hor ;down to him.- "I: was?drunk.
If that train had been wrecked the blood
of all those helpless passengers, men,
women and children, would nave been
on my head. God be thanked that He
has not punished me as I deserve." *
Royal Meriam, a prematurely old and
crippled man, lived to atbue for all the
faults and follies of his youth. He never
re-entered the old profession?he had
nerve enough for that, he was wont to
say, even if they would kave trusted him
again; but he*worked'hard and honestly
for his bread, with Grace his wife stand?
ing .loyally by his side. And never in

Isaac and Rebekah,
That is a beautiful story of Isaac and
?ebekah as recorded in the Bib!e; Then
the other of Jacob serviog seven years
for his heart's idol and being cheated by
his father-in-law Lab?n, at the end of his
long courtship, which, according, to the
record, "seemed unto him but a few days."
There is none of the marry in haste and
repent at leisure about that union.
Where is the young man of this modern
time who will serve father-in-law seven
years.for his Rachel, and, after, having
the older sister Huldah put off on him ;
will plow, sow and reap, milk the cows
and feed the hogs three years more for
another one? Talk about mother in-law !
Why, all the black deeds of all the
mothers-in-law of the present tirao do not
equal the outrage of Laban.
But to return to Isaac. There is some?
thing peculiarly touching in his case.
His wooing by proxy was a risky venture.
Suppose the servant who was sent on this
erraud had palmed himself off as the
principal in the transaction?the party
of the first part you know; what might
have beenthe result? But this servant
was the oldest trusted Borvant of Abraham
?a man who "feared God"?which was
the assurance of his fidelity and that the
interest of his young master was safe in
his care. He was neither Congregational,
Methodist nor Baptist; but ho feared God,
that was sufficient.
, Isaac had got to be about 40 years of
age and it'was timo foriiim to marry ;
though in our time of life with half the
bachelors it is timo to die. But Isaac
had spent most of his time in the open
air. We don't learn that he drank poor
whiskey, or smoke and chewed tobacco.
I do not think he belonged to any club, or
that ho ever saw a latch key. No, he
went to bed with the chickens and rose
with the sparrows. We hear of his going
out in the field to meditate at "eventido,"
but it could not have been much after
sundown, for be was able to see Rebekah
coming on a camel. Besides, this wa?
an extra occasion, when some variation
from the routine of his usual quiet way
of life might be tolerated.
Isaac was about to change the whole
course of his life, and most men in his
situation would desire, or at least would
do well to meditate at eventide. Ho was
interested to know what kind of a woman
the servant would bring him for a wife.
If he had seen the girls around him,
frizzed, banged and bustled, or arrayed
in the abominations of modern fashions,
? as a sensible man he would have made
up his mind that if the proposed Mrs.
Isaac would come to him in that way to
send her right back to her respected pa?
rents, But Rebekah was none such, She
was innocent, fair and modest, too; for
we learn that she took a veil and covered
her face when about to meet her future
husband. Then there is another good
thing recorded?Isaac loved her "and
was comforted after his mother's death."
Isaac was wise in not marrying before
the death of his mother. Of all the bad
positions in which a young wife can be
placed, that of being brought to the house
of her husband's parents is one of the
worst. Isaac brought his wife into Sa?
rah's tent, but Sarah was no longer there,
else I doubt if Mr. and'Mrs. Isaac could
have passed an hundred and twenty years
without some blot of a family quarrel to
disfigure this otherwise clear record of
connubial felicity.
And now young man, don't marry un?
til you can bring your Rebekah into your
own tent. No matter if your tent is made
of five-cent muslin; better that than to
begin life in a place with the old folks.
? I do not know all that may be human
nature, but I have learned by experience
and observation, that female nature can?
not be kind to a son's wife. I could cite
many cases in point ; one where not
twenty-four hours ago the young husband
died. The mother and sister, engrossed
in ' their own selfish sorrow, leave the
girl-widow alone with her infant and her
deeper sorrow, as much a stranger in
"Sarah's tent" as she would be if among
entire strangers.
The innuendoes, the insinuations, the
open accusations that?"if my son had
not married as he did?if. b? had not
overworked to support a wife?if \o had
not been neglected, he would have beeu
living to-day!" v
Snch unjust remarks may be caused by
spleen or indigestion ; but they wound
just as deeply all the same.
Isaac did not marry to gratify a passing
fancy, but for a'worthy purpose, Sweet
sixteen did not captivate him by the arts
of the modern drawing room. Rebekah
was a working girl?not a fashionable
doll. She was well fitted to be the help?
mate of an honest, independent working
man. . When. Isaac took her to be his
wife he did not tie around his neck a
bundle of weak' nerves, artificial wants
and pampered caprices, or a distorted
anatomy. No; he locked arms . with
physical, and mental perfection, 03 near
as that can bo found on earth, and 120
years of comfort and felicity followed as
the natural result.
Young man,.study the life and charac?
ter of Isaac. Young woman imitate the
graces of Rebekah; then both of you go
and do likewise.

Often neglect and delay in giving
proper attention to their children who
have become unhealthy. Place your
sickly daughter upon the use of B. B. B.
as a tonic and general regulator; give it
to your weak and feeble children ; pre?
scribe it to your husband aud sous as a
general tonic and appetizer before break?
fast, and they will never have any use
for whiskey bitters.
BEAUTIFUL COMPLEXION.
Thousands of single aud married ladies
are using various cosmetics, in order to
improve their complexion, and to hide
the many faults and imperfections of the
face-, neck and hands. These local appli?
cations arc only temporary, and leave the
skin in a worse condition.
An internal preparation is now being
used, operating through the blood, which
renders the skinas smooth and soft as an
infant'3, and imparting a beautiful ala?
baster complexion so much admired by
the elite. The remedy casts off all im?
purities, from the blood, removes all
bumps, blotches and splotches from the
face, neck and hands, and tinges tho
cheek with the roseate hues of nature.
Tbe article alluded to is B. B. B., a
blood purifier and general family tonic,
ivhich never fails to give entire satisfac?
tion. No female should fail to use it.
To be beautiful, you must be healthy,
and to be healthy you should use B. B. B.
WONDERFUL ULCERS.
Atlanta, Ga., June 8,1S35.
In 1878 there came on my hand what
was thought to b9 a carbuncle, which ran
its course several months, broke, and
finally healed. The next spring knots,
or nodes, came on my arms, which were
thought to be rheumatic, and I took gal?
lons of medicine from the best physicians
in Cuthbert, Ga., where I then resided.
About this time my left limb below the
knee commenced swelling at a fearful
rate, and finally came to a head and
broke. Both arms were sore, and I could
hardly bear my weight standing, and
kardly know how I managed to live
through it all. About this time we
moved from Cuthbert to Atlanta. I
began to despair of ever getting well;
the sore on my limb was a regular eating
ulcer, now about three inches in length,
two inches in width, seeming to be down
to tbe bone, and discharging about a
cupful of pus (matter) per day: my arms
still ruuning,.my sleep disturbed, and I
sometimes thought I would lose my rea?
son. A friend called on me one day, Mr.
A. J. VanDuzee, rind recommended B.
B. B., and was certain it would cure me.
Iii a short time I got my son to get me
two bottles, and I saw the improvement
from the very fir3t. I have uow taken 8
or 9 bottles, and my arms are entirely
well, and the large ulcer on my limb has
healed. I now feel like a new person,
thanks to your noble remedy, B. B. B.

SEWING MACHINE
PARLOR.
npiIE Ladies of Anderson and surround
-A. ing Counties are respectfully invi?
ted to call at my newly arranged Sewing
Machine Parlor, and examine the merits
of the various leading Machines for which
I am pole Agent in this and several other
Counties in Upper Carolina. I guarantee
one and all polito and careful attention.
?The justly celebrated New Home is
still our favorite. It is simple, strong,
swift and sure, doing the widest range ol
work, and equipped with all the latest im?
proved Attachments.
The Domestic ia certainly a Star of
no small magnitude, and is celebrated for
its light and noiseless ruuning, and its
handsome appearance.
The peerless While is KING, and is
highly appreciated by all who use them,
for lightness, simplicity and handsome
finish.
The EtoyaJ St. Johu ic certainly
the ACCOMMODATING Machine of the
day, as you can do beautiful and substan
tial work, by running either way, without
getting out of adjustment or breaking
. stitches.
These are the LEADERS, but I also sell
several other makes of Machines, and all
at low figures and on reasonable terms.
The Latest Eovelty in way of a
Sewing Machine Attachment is the P. Byrne
Spring Motor. The complete operation of
a Sewing Macliino with this Motor is so
simple and easy that a child, or the most
delicate lady can use it. Can be applied to
any Sewing Machine, and is loudly prais?
ed by all who see its operation. Will run
from 10 to 1,000 stitches per minute, at the
will of the operator. I have exclusive sale
of this Motor for the upper portion of
South Carolina. Can bo seen in operation
at any time at either of my Sewing Ma
chinc'Parlors.
