Wheat through this section is reported as being unusually good. A fair crop of fall oats was made, but spring oats were almost a failure. Mr. J M. Reeves, formally of Laurens County, S. C., but now of Elberton, Ga., who is considered one o? the finest pen men in the South, is now teaching pen manship to a large and interesting class at the high school building.

Well, Mr. Editor, I guess you have about forgotten ''Old Uncle Vade,ie," as he bas been silent in the press for a long while, but not quite so in the cotton field. After many weeks of hot, dry weather we were fortunate enough to get a shower of rain, which was heartily welcomed by all. The crops are looking fine, considering the amount of rain sines they have been planted. The farmers are plowing their corn for tba last time, and cotton is almost ready to bloom. June peaches are getting ri pp. Come out, Mr. Editor, aud help us eat them, (WU,) Last tbird Sunday was regular preach ing day at Prospect,, and as usual, there was a large crowd.

We all hope Oscar will soon be able to return. Mr. Lee Sanders has also been qnite low with fever. We are all glad to learn he ia better now. Miss Clalr? Browne has returned home from Winthrop College. Several youngster* went fishing on the river last Monday evening. They didn't catch any fish I think they fished more on dry land than in the river. They re port a nice time. That's all right. But we do solemnly ask them, if they can't catch any fieb, will they please bold in their "gas" coming back and don't wake up everybody on the road. Ask some of the Prospect boys whose carriage is the center of attraction. Wheat threshing ls now about over, and from reports everybody made a good crop.

BETHEL BAPTIST CHURCH, June ll, 1898. Whereas, it bath pleased the Lord to re move fr m us by death, which occurred May 31st, Rev. Baxter Hays, who for a period of forty-five years bas been a faith ful minister of the gospel. He labored among us as only a servant of God could d<-, giving bis own life in service for oth ers, preaching tbe gospel to all classes, he sought to help all and to offend none. Truly be sought the people and not their pasm?n-?; and whereas, we feel that in his death the ministry bas lost an earnest, faithful lab rer, the church a safe guide ? nd the world a shining light. In this IM t. 8 thel) church bis name will be car ried into the next generation; our chil dren will hear of bis thirty years service be.ro and h during his earnest appeals to sinners, many resolved to turn to the Lord Eternity alone will reveal the val ue of his work.

OUR five years' experience with the DEERING IDEAL BALL BEARING MOWERS ha3 convinced us, as well as hundreds of the beet farmers in Andersou County, that they are most appropriately named-that they are ideal in light draft, in strength, in durability and in ability to ile perfect work. Perlect as were the Deering Machines last year, we know that they are still better improved and strengthened for the harvest of 1898. Re member that they are the only Mowers on the market that can start from a stop, in any crop, without backing. Every Deering Mower sold is an adver tisement for us, and is the means of us selling another. Can our competitors say that ? Remember, one thorn of experience is worth a whole wilderness of warning.
