Farm Homes.
This old subject is like love: ever new.
Almost every one either has lived in or
hopes to live in a farm home. The very
name is suggestive of a style and quality
of happiness not to be found anywhere
else on earth. It is at last the ideal
home. Here we expect that rest of mind
and contentment of heart which the busy
bustle of the city can never afford.
Sweet, delightful home! When and
where will we find just the home we seek
and long for. The quiet rest, the freedom
from care and worry, the pure air,
the vigorous health, the untrammelled
liberty to think and do just as we feel
like thinking and doing. Why, of course,
we look for this blessed spot "somewhere
in nature's bowers, where trees throw
long shadows, vines run at will, flowers
bloom in rich abandon, birds sing as
God tunes their harps, brooks babble
sweet words of comfort to leaping trout
and darting bream.
Here and here only do we expect to
add our little mite of ornament and training
and developing until the paradise is
complete. Here God and man meet and
harmonize. And out of this harmony
grows contentment and satisfaction un
til we are reaay to ureiiK lorm in songs
of praise and gratitude for life and life's
priveliges. But while all this can be
and often is enbodied and materialized
how often do we find the opposite. How
many farm homes are me::e sheds, only
stopping places. How neglected and unimproved,
nay how often has a lovely
spot been actually marred by the destructive
hand of man. The beautiful
trees have fallen before the ruthless ax e,
the shade all gone, a little hut or cabin
half built never finished; no paint or
whitewash on fence or wall. The gnavring
tooth of time has been given free
range. Dilapidation and decay rule and
run riot, an ugly tumble down fence ad Is
to the unkempt appearance; everything
looks forbidding, nothing inviting. The
owners or tenants care nothing for looks.
By traveling through farm sections you
can always guess at the approach to a
town or city by the brightening up of the
homes. A neat cottage, a painted fence,
a grove, a grass lawn, a flower yard, one
or more of these will tell you a town is
n^-ir nt hand. This should not be true.
The towns should have and enjoy all
these as a small recompense for the loss
of country privileges, but they should by
no means monopolize them. The country
homes should also have them. Have
them in greater abundance and more
ample proportions. Fellow-farmers, remember
that you only pass through this
iife one time, you leave your record day
by day; your greatest work is to rear
such children as will make good citizens,
good neighbors, good Christians. Leave
the world richer in the quality of the man
and woman you leave to honor your
name and cherish your memory. 'You
eaunot do this as you should do it unless
you rear them in a happy home. Many
farmers have money invested in city property,
bank shares and such securities
and yet live in very ugly, uncomfortable
homes. The first investment should be
in a good, neut attractive home, it does
not require much money to have such a
home. A little spent in fruits and flowers
and lawns and walks, groves, fencing and
painting will make a home bright and
attractive to the eye, and a little spent in
good books and uiusical instruments and
furniture will make it restful and cheery
within. These things will help to make
your boys sober and industrious men
and your daughters happy and cheerful
home-keepers. This is a very important
rpa^tef. Tkink over it aud apt upon it \
you are able to do this.
Now will each one who reads this
article dg something to make his home
mors attractive. First thing, give your
wife a few dollars to spend just as* she
wishes. Then consult with her aud befin
to plan some outside improvements,
'he front yard perhaps can be made better
by a little work. LhJ U pff by some
definite plgp^maHqre it with some of the
waste about the back yard or lot: plow
or dig or spade it up thoroughlyplant
some evergreen shrubs and a few lovely
roses and other flowers. All of this will
not cost auythiug except a little thoughtful
work. This will enpotjragc yon" by
taking out door exercise and drink in
health by walking among these flowers.
Then look after the fences and out
houses. One or two dollars for lime
and a brush will get you ready for the
white-washing, The bqys will be delt/\

A few gallons of ready mixed paint will
give them added pleasure as they brighten
up the house. I)o not say you cannot
afford this. If you CNpt'Pt t? live and
raise youf children, this will be the best
money you can ever spend for them.
Even if vou are a renter, you can afford
to do this. It will save doctor's bills and
make your children self-respecting and
proud of home. Very few landlords will
refuse to pay for the material, and you
can afford to do the work.
As I have written the above on farm
homes and two short pieces 011 good
roads, I now wait patiently to hear from
other? Qn the good roads subject. File
out, correspondents; let lis hear from
you. John M. Huxtek.

New County Scheme.
J. M. Patterson, Esq., has completed
the map of the proposed new county of

runs via Averill to Stinson's Bridge 011

the Southern Railway half way between
Fiddle Pond and Kline, striking
the Saltkchatcliie at the mouth of IIcicqles
Creek and following the former to
a point a mile below the Barnwell and
Hampton line, where it turns, striking
the Coosawhatehie three miles from Fairfax,
down that stream to the South Bound
crossing, thence to Martin's Landing and
lip the Savannah to the starting point.
The area within said lines is 42(5 square
miles, of which 93 arc in Hampton and
323 in Barnwell.

HOLDING THE WOLF
BY THE EARS
That's what you arc doing if you ignore
our saving in Buggies, Wagons, Harness,
Whips, etc., as compared with
those of other people. As soon as your
strength gives out or rather you are closed
out, you will sec your disaster. But why
take such chances ? You get no better
goods from others by paying more than
you need pay us. On the contrary, you
are more likelv to get an inferior article,
V A
for we are very particular as to the
material that goes into our
BUGGIES, WAGONS, HARNESS,
etc., while we keep the manufacturer up to the
highest standard of workmanship, below which he .
knows he cannot go. It is not so long since we
opened up business here, but to look at our sales,
you would think we were the only people in this
country selling Buggies, Wagons Harness, etc.
Let us hold the wolf for you.
