Burke Uounty’s Fnrms
From Augusta we went to \yay-
nesboro, the county seat., of Burke
county, and one of the leading agri
cultural counties in .the State. Thj
claim wa^ advanced that this county-
held thw world’s record for the pro- -
Ruction .of the greatest number of
bale* af cotton in a year... *Thik wii
(took with a train of salt for we re-
jmemhereH Orangeburg and -Spartan
burg counties in South Carolina, but
iwe never saw a more promising out-
jlook for a maximum yield than we
saw in the-county ,of Burke., named
!for the noted Irish patriot and ■
I orator. I
The boll weevil is jnst making hi*
advent this year into this county,
but the people there seem to be
'possessed of the insane idea that lit
tle damage will be done,, and they
'are going to suffer as a consequence.
