For Bettor Crops Select Good Seed.
The season is at hand when it

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.

Thi State Fair.
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.

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.
