For Bettor Crops Select Good Seed. The season is at hand when it )> hooves the farmer to w to it that nothing tint the highly apnrrwi'fi variation of h??i?(Ih lie hi>. r'" ? ----- - - . cured for next, v^rs planting. It should be a point to select tho best farm seeds, tlie best vegetables, the beet varieties for the patches. Do not fail, at all events to secure for yourself the ben -tits and : advantages to be derived with little extra cost, without any more work or care, possibly with less work in .gathering and a better price for the staple, cotton seed of the prolific and hardy varieties. There arc arguments in favor of this policy which have existed all along and which are quite sufiieient and even conclusive. The old arguments have boen added to in recent years by the pests and by a competition with progressive neighbors who have abandoned the old habit of sowing indifferent seeds of plants that have run out. Do not pin your chances to the plant of tardy growth. Do not depend upon the small bolls and scant yield, when something better can be had. Srll your common seed to Iho oil mills and buy a better variety. The time gained and the increased yield will pay the extra cost many times over. - ? Intelllgant Horns Training. As men are largely * lie creatures of environment, the home life of a boy is necessarily largely responsible for his character. If ho is p irentless and is left by society to shift for himself, probably to inhabit the haunts of vice and ciime, his criminal education is begun early and is Hpeedily finished. If he is neglected by a shiftless and careless father or mother his footsteps turn irresistibly to the prison door. It is only by intelligent home training, by the proper exorcise of parental authority, by tender 6oliciiude for the physical wants and moral needs of our children, that we can hope to make them good men and women A neglected child is usually a lost child. It imbibes premature ideas; ideas of independence, goes forth into the world before its time and is dazzled by the palaces of sin and the haunts of crime. There is a tendency upon the laity to look upon physicians and surgeons as necessary evils who delight in robbiug us of our purse and serin, but a tlmmrliiful sidorntion arouses u wonder in the mind (in to how any normally intelligent person could be guilty of underestimating the patient research and painstaking work of physicians and surgeons. The tremendous debts the race owes these men for the lessening of the useless sacrifice of human life, the lessening of suffering, the bettering of physical and consequently moral conditions, can rtover be paid in gold?we owe them our highest admiration and our most sincere gratitude?likewise the prompt payment of their quarterly statements whenever within the realms of possibilities. Newspaper renders who have kept track of current events the past year must have been i 111 > pressed by the activity of the war department in teaching the practice as well as the theory of war. The army and the national guard have been engaging in joint maneuvers. and officers of experience are a unit in commending the now departure as a move in the light direction for the welfare of the country. So long as European j countries maintain their nn-Hent I large standing armies it is incumbent upon the United States to be prepared for any emergency, and to do this our army must have the benefit of all the practice possible. The rustics have the happiest .Jot. They work hard, but they have enough,and they are without four aa to the future. They are mutually helpful, their needs are simple, their virtues firm, and the life of the farm gives not only endftranoe and long life, but sound brains, which in time regulates the utfairs of the nation. The city :SWn is never in oontrol of our destinies. The farmer lives above .Statistics.

The Rtate Fair is only one week off and the prospect is that there will be a very largo attendance this year. The fair itself is likely to be hotter than over, an the new fuir grounda and buildings will be used for the first time. These are at least three miles from the old grounds and across thoeity on the opposite side but are much more accessible to the trains for both exhibits and visitors. Persons wishing to ship stock can have it unloaded right at the stalls while it will be possible for a visitor to get out to the grounds on the trolley oars without even going into the city of Columbia nt all. But the Columbia peopla are arranging for street attractions that will draw the crowds to town. The Columbia trades displays the last two years have been alone worth the trip to Columbia to see. As so large a part of the cotton crop has been picked arid the farmers are comparatively free from work, it in reasonable to expect a large attendance at the fair. The prospect is that several counties will have excellent exhibits of their farm products and Commissioner Watson is arranging a State exhibit also. The display of blooded stock and cattle is always interesting and it will be better than ever this year. LETTER TO E. A HARTSELL. FORT MILL, S. O.

All of our Institutions for orphans have agreed to ask the good people of lie State to devote one day in October to the orphans. Young and old, rich and poor alike are are asked to give the proceeds of one day's work to their ! little fatherless brothers and sisters. The day f??r the Thornwell ! Orphanage.

Tho general elections will cost something this year. The appropriations for the commissioners, > managers and'messengers of eler- ! tions is $21,500; and the appropriation for the payment of the publication of notices of election is $2,500. It is possible ami indeed quite probable that this will not be enough, for the notice of election this year will make just about twice as much at it. did two years aao. The notice of state and county elections will make 1,500 words. As these notices must be printed in every county, the cost will be quite heuvy. The fertilizer tax now amounts to $103,570,10 and more money is coming in every day. Last year the income from this source for the entire twelve mouths was only JOH/.MMMO and the money received after October 5lh $0,833,25. All of this money goes to Cleinson college in addition to other appropriations.

The volume of furniture business that has been done this year by Mills & Young Iish been far beyond their expectations. This tirm almost weekly receives largo shipments of furniture and at present. has on hand a larger and handsomer stock of lu.usefuruishiugs than over shown here. The secret to their success in this line is that they buy right, thev advertise I what they buy and make their prices right, consequently they are making things hum. A St. Petersburg despatch of Monday hh>b that after a consultation with the Czar, General Gripponbnrg has decided to mobolize 600,000 additional troops for the war. Manchuria, the despatch asserts, will be abandoned for the present. A Russian note will probably be issued to the powers announcing the Czar's firm intention of continuing the war. A recent decision of the supreme court is to the effect that no whiskey can he seized by the state constables while the hnnds of a common carrier, not even if the carrier is a d my man, delivering the goods to the nghtfuf owner. The goods must first pass into the hands of the owner and be released legally to hiui. This means that the shipments of liquor cannot be seized while in the hands of railroads, steamship companies, or while being delivered to the owners by a ' transfer company or common dray- j man, From the Philippines comes the news thet Second Lieut.
