the following program arranged:
Sir day. May the bth, instead of

thought best for the reason that

the time, and that a number of
nur people will doubtless attend
the memorial exercises at York
villo on th 10th. The people will

Things Political.
Notwithstanding the fact that !
the primary for the nomination of
pounty candidatea is very nearly
four months off, the voters are al- !
ready talking of the chnnces of
pueeess of the different candidates
eo far announced. The race in
which in oat intercut is likely to '
geutre is that for clerk of the court.
Messrs. W. It. VVylie, ?T. A. Tate,
fl. R. Logan, ?T. A. Ncely and #J. C, j
Wilhorn are the announced candi- '
dates up to the present time. '
Whether the lists will fye augment- '
pd by otjier entries remains to be
peen. In this township one hears
more talk of the candidacy of
Messrs. Wylie and Tate. the. latter
V*oii?>? a repident of this place at
present. These two gentlemen
imposed each other in the election
four years ago and Mr. VVylie won
out by a small maj >rity. It appears
that tliey are the leading |
candidates locally so far, hut not a
few have been heard to express a
preference for Mr. Logan and his
friends say tlint lie will continue
t?? gain strength until the day of
tho primary and oontidently ex- {
}>reHR the opinion that he will at ,
cMbt be in the second primary. i
The nomination of \V. D. Ornm

The grounds upon which Mr.

EngHsh Sparrow Pest.
The many residents who indulge
in the i uteres ting fad of kitchen
gard? ning are making complaint
of tin* depredations of Knglish
sparrows. It has been the experience
of many amateur gaideners
that as soon as the tender vegetables
appear above the ground,
these feathered pests swoop down
upon 111 o garden in Hocks and de- ,
vour tne leaves and shoots, greatly
retarding the growth of the plant !
or killing it. A man in Charlotte, i
1 A f M /\ ? ?
H?-corning 10 rue uiwcrver, lias i
devised h unique method of get
ting the best of the sparrows. Ordinary
ran dolls have been dressed
in loud-colored raiment and placed
at intervale in the garden, supp >rted
by slicks. Another Church
Birect device is a network of string
tied to sticks. over the young veg
etables. A Colleges reetgardener
has erected in his patch small pafier
windmills which revolve rapid- j i
y the greater part of the time and i
are supposed to frighten the pests
away. All of these devices are
said to possess merit and are really
worth something to the amateur
gardener, for tlie English sparrow I
11MB beo me the greatest nuisance
with which they have to contend. I

Letter to L. A. Harris.
Fort Mill, S. C.
Dear Sir: "It costs as much to put- >
rm poor paint as good?a common say- j
ing and true?it costs much more to
put-on poor paint; more gallons.
Poor paint is paint and barytes or
paint and sand or paint and lime or 1
paint and chalk or paint and benzine or
paint and water; these are the usual;
cheats; there are others.
It takes mork gallons of paint-and acheat
than of honest paint; and the cost ,
rf the labor of painting is so much a
gallon?one gallon cosis as much as an- j
?iunr, ior liiixir.
This is tho way to reckon your costs
for this your., hut how about next year?
Paint Devon, and next, year costs
nothing; year after next the same; and
tlie same for si veral years.
Paint anything else, and your costs
recur according to what you paint-with.
Some of the mixtures wear one year;
whip two; some three.
It costs twice, three times, four times
five times, as much to paint with a
cheat as to paint with Devoo.
