At this mectiii" Dr. (I. Wyche, of Prosperity, will read a paper on the prevention of diseases. Dr. Wyche hopes to make this paper not simply a technical paper for the information of the professional men, who may be present, but a clear and simple paper, which may be understood and appreciated by t'hc laymen.

Mr. Chappell expects to gather about seventy-live bushels from each acre. I lie Herald and News has a photograph of the field, and hopes to present the picture in one of the issues next week. The truth of the matter is, even the farmers themselves admit, that this year they have one of the best corn crops ever grown in this stale, and in a meat many cases the corn is made and remains only to bo harvested.
