T ii1 is to .be kno\wn as High111and ame time ago it wa-, pu'blished tha.t Mr. Martin and Mr. Mower had bought the William Y. Fair place on the suburbs of Newberry. and had paid $16,000 for it. The impression at that time was that this place was bought for the purpose of erecting a eotten mill, thougth Messrs. Martin and No,wer who made the purchase and paid the money, gave ont no 1-:Aements. The matter- has now ehrystalized and the application for chouter has been made aind the book,, of subscriiption will be open in the inext ten days. a:n the .people of this 1 mmunity wil1 be given the oppor u 1 LI"y. to subscribe to the capital it.ek ,f the Highland Cotton Mill. - The -wo mills which are here, the - Nowbeiry Cotton MiR, and the Mollb I hon Manufa.tri.ng Company, <ich with a capital of $500,000, have been successful .and, well maniged. Th! Newberry Mill, as has been stated several times, was one of the first mills;built in the state to ibe operated exclusive6ly by steam -as the motive power, and at that time was consider ed something of an experiment. The experiment was suecessful from the beginning, and since then, numubers of c.ter mills have been erected, and t are tbeing successfully operated with steam power. W The Mollohon .Manufacturing Com pany makes fine goods, and has been in operation for about eight years, and during that time the pIlant has been doubled. 1 The site selected for the Highland Cotton Mill contains about two hun dred and fifty acres of land, just north of Newberry 'and adjoining the i city through which the C., N. & L. * Railroad runs. It is a healthy loea - tion anld is admirably adapted for a coetton mill. No doubt the capital stock to the Highland Cotton Mill will be promptly subscribed, as the - busine'ss interests of this community I realize the necessity for an increase Sin 'our weekly pay roll. It is un'derstood that Mr. Edward R. Hipp, a large and successful mer hant of this city, and other ibusmness men, who are associated with him, have purehased the Wilson place, very .near the- place (bought for the High land Mill. and containing about one hundred acres, for the purpose of. erectinz a cotton mill. Two more - eotton mills in Newberry 'would add ivery greatly to-the commercial inter Sest c'f this comnmunity. One of them >now is assured, 'and there is very st-ronz. probability that the other one will .be organized in the near future. e .The Herald .and News hopes that the business men of 'this commuinity will come forvard promptly and take Ubis stoek. Everybody should take segne and thus the total capital stock en be easily secuTed right here in Newberry. Meeting Chamber Commerce. The Chamber of Commerce will hold a meeting in the rooms on nex.t STuesday evening at 8 o'clock. All t the members are earnestly requested to be present, as there are several I matters of importance to.the orgamiza - tion, which President Wright desires to bring to their attention. He is therefore very anxious that each and - evey member shall be on -h'an.d .promptly on Tuesday evening at 8.30, o'elock. e Members of Douty and Local Unions .

Knzi.pp. Tli: hraicl of the depa'ment was e establi.-hed 'five years a-o and is for the purpose of tea."Iill'e farme-s fiLt- wlill are all-edy known anl not for the purpo;e of nakinz ex periments. These u(itlemien came to ewerry Saturday m rin from l 1m.ia zn:i after iaking a drive of lx -veral '-nriles in he coujnltr spent the s greater portion of the day at the la Frederiek hotel where they met and it ta:lked with quite a number of onur b: proogressive farmers from all sec- w tions of the county. fi Mr. Barrow is from Lake Charles. i La., and Capt. S-ith is from Tyler, ot Tex.. botlkbeing Souther gentlemen. tjj Mr. Barrow, who is in charge of the at work, has been connected 'ith the fc Tovernment service for several years. ba Tlis i the fifth year that this partic ular branch of the work has been in v; prozress. Last year their' vork "at a: in Texas. Arkansaiw, Alabama, Mis- i: sisippi. and some in Virginia. This ?1 year -t-hey propose to work in Geor- j., ia.~North Carol!ina, and Sotith %Caro- ti: lina. ' ~ m The pl,an is to teach the farmers t! what is already'known and facts that m have already been discovered in ag- m riculture, not by delivering leetures hi to them b-ut by doing aetual work. c Mr. Barrow says that t.heir work M might well be called the National Farmers college. There is this difference, however, e between the ordinary agrienltural e college and -the work -which is pro- c nosed to be done. In .e ordinr:y college the pupil comes -to the .collage t( and learns to work ou;t abstract prob- ti lems. In this work t-he teacher gives a to the ;pupils who are the far'mers of ez the country con-orete *problems which T are already worked out on ;naiure's T blackboard-the fields-and Ithe an were are obtained in ithe iiiost eon viincing form-that -Ef dollars and cents. The lessons 'which are tihus learned by the 'farmer; can ilever be g frgotten because they 'have done the i tigis themn:selves and fthey 'have no :out- of the practicability shd fea- g, sibility of the instructiorn. Mr. Barrow further says- tat dur- e ing this year they had some five thousand demonstrators scattered through tihe states .which they have , worke! who cultivated aibout 20,000 ~ ares. He says that the number of acres which each demonstra.tor is per- 19, mitted -to work under the instruction I , of this department is limited'to from c one to five. They are devoting their t instrution principally to the -enlti- ti vaition of cotton and co-rn which .are the staple crops of this country ainda if the farmers can be made 'success ful growers of these crops they '-will so-on become successful growers of other crops.'C The -plan is to have a st-ate agentq and to divide .the state into'three-Or four distrie.ts, each district to be ina charge of a. district agent, ~nd each a district agent to have from tfourto eight sub-agents, who will go to the different commnties and selleet one live progressive and enteg'prising far mer in each com.munity to demon strate the work b.y the act.ual -doing of what has already been found to ~e sucessful. The idea of Mr. Bar row is to bring the personaI equ-ation ito the work by having it done by the farmer himself. The farmer who is thus selected and consents to de this 'work receiv es personal visits from the agent of the department of the government. Mr. Barrow is now visiting differ ent sections of the state, talking to C farmers and inspecting the soil, witn ~ a view to organizing this -'practica.1 demonstration work in this state. ~ Of course the success 'which a,ccom- ~ anies t:he work wi-li depend la-rgely C upon the interest which the farmers i take in it. It has proved successful C elsewhere and will no doubt be help ful to the farmers of this state.-: There is a necessity for the farm- s ers to adtopt the very best modes of e ccltivation. Another thing which our ,, farmers have greatly neglected is the i selection and improvement of their .t seed. This is also one of the works a which -will be ensphasized by this de- t partent. The farmers of Newberry countyc have been giving considerable atten-t tion to improved agricultuire and Mr.e Barrow wi;ll 'find interested and eageri pupils fo'r his college in this county.( ?CTURES AND MIRRORS.

Capt Smith visited the grave of rozier and this visit revived his re llections of the young Texan and Y led baek incidents of battles and. imp life. Capt. Smith says that the first bat ry left Dallas in August, 1861, after iey had received their guns and uipment. Their first work was to a pture a garrison at San Antonio. 0 hey then proceeded through Indian r erritory to Fort Smith, thence ross Boston Mountion to Southwest [issouri under Gen. Ben MdCol.lough a E tihe Texas Rangers. On account r stopping ait Fort Smith they ar- e .ved too late for the battle of Oak li1 or as the Federals call it Wil m's creek, in which batt-le the Con iderates were commanded by Gens.a eOollough and Price and the Fed- 0 raJs by Gen. Lyon. His Battery wintered on. the headr ~aters of White .river, tan miles the'ast of Fayette, Ark. The next >ring they moved baek and fought te battle of Elk Horn on the~8th and f th of Ap.ril.
