Here is Some Corn Freak. Some weeks ago we called attention to an ear of com grown in this county with grains on it “popped” open, like uuto popcorn. Mayor E. C Hayes goes one better. He has brought in a small iear of corn which is indeed a freak, curiosity and monstrosity all in one breith. The ear is about five inqhes in length, and is well filled out, but each grain on the ear is neatly covered with an individual shuck. There is not an exposed grain on the ear. The whole ear grew in a regulation shuck, besides. This takes the prize, so far. If anybody can beat it, we’d like to know about it.—Bamberg Herald. Fite UoYour Fora • V.i‘ The Best Counties.

O NE of the queerest things about some people is that they will not follow GOOD ADVICE when they KNOW they OUGHT TO. Perhaps we are all more or less that way. All the wise men of all ages have urged their fellow beings to PUT AWAY SOMETHING for a RAINY DAY.
