Two serious fires in two days is rather had luck for u cotton mill. The Kesler MfgCo.’a plant, Salisbury, X. C., on Thursday, July 1, had a lire in their iapper and picker room, causing $300 damage, covered by in surance. On Friday, July 2, another blaze broke out, in same place doing about $100 damage. It was only by the hard work of the mill hands on each occasion that the factory was saved. The Roanoke Underwear Co., capi tal $100,Otto, we understand, is the name of the new linn taking over the business of the United Industrial Cn. at Roanoke Rapids, X. C. This is the factory which (’buries Cohen, Petersburg, Va., wrote the Textile Excelsior he had taken control of, and wan buying more machinery therefor, his letter appearing in our issue of June 19. Jus. R. Pugh is treasurer and manager at the factory. As indicated in lust week’s Textile Excelsior r re-organization of the Yadkin Fulls Mfg. Co., Milledgeville, X. C., Is about to take place. Lee 8. Overman, Thoo. F. Klutz and L. li. Clement, of Salisbury, and A. M. Chase, of Philadelphia, representing the creditors and bondholders held a meeting at Milledgeville, last week for the purpose of re-organizing and re-stocking the company and run ning the mill. It contains i(XX) spin dles, and X. R. McGanless is at pres ent receiver of the company. ChttH. A. Davenport, of Boston, Mass., recently visited Piedmont, 8. C., where he was Superintendent of the Piedmont Cotton Mills from May 1.1877. to May 1.1878. The plant then consisted of Mill Xo. 1, running 10,000 spindles and 240 looms. Hav ing been absent for 19 years ho was very much astonished at the improve ment made in that time. He stated, however, that He was not surprised, us he had always believed that the South would eventually absorb the cotton manufacturing interests. The Abbeville (8. C.) Cotton Mills have now their carding and spinning all running and 70 of the Draper looms weaving in good shape. The balance of the looms will he In operation by August 10. This is u complete mill, with l.'i.OOO spindles and 304 looms. The heads of departments are George li. Peck ham, Supt., P. H. Rollman, master mechanic and chief engineer; Win.

Smith, of the Draper Co , is at pres ent at Abbeville, to finish setting up and starting the looms. Gisovei:. July 12.—Crops are look ing fine in this section, although they are about ton daj s later t han last year, hut with continued good seasons there will be a good yield. A heavy rain, wind and hail storm passed over this section Saturday afternoon, doing some damage by washing where land was not terraced, and some report .one damage from the hail. Wheat crops are above the average this year. A Sunday school was organize at Rincy Grove school house a few weeks ago. I iitn glad to report that it is in a flourishing condition, and con tinues to grow in attendance and in terest. Rev. Mr. Bailey, of Cowpens, filled his regular appointment at Antioch on yesterday preaching a very able sermon on “Brotherly Love.” All who attended the picnic at Kings Mountain Rattle ground on the third, held under the auspices of the Antioch Cornet Rand, report an en joyable time. There was plenty there to satisfy the inward man and plenty of cold letnonad* on the ground. The gathering was treated to a speech from Mr. 1 inley, of Yorkville, giving a historic al account i f the battle that was fo ight there over a century ago. I would like to say a fe vj words in regard to the prejudice against the legal profession hinted » uby J. L. S. in last week’s issue. In my opinion it is not the chicanery of the lawyers that causes this hut the faultiness of of the laws. There are too many technicalities that enable crimnuls to excape justice. The right of ap peal is very much abused. There is no reason why the citizens should he called on to bear the expense of from two to four trials of every crimnul that is brought before the bar of jus tice. Every one should have a fair and impartial trial but when they get that there is no reason they should get another. The state should be placed on the same footing in the selection of juries as the crim- nal. Let the bur of the 8tate take hold of this, and formulate a bill or hills that will remedy the evils that ena ble crirnnals to escape justice and press its passage before the Legisla ture, and they will have the hacking of every good citizen, and this preju dice will cease, and society will be elevated, and lynching will he re duced to a minimum.

What manures are best for asparagus where it is difficult to obtain stable manure ia a question oft: ;i asked. It is answered as follows in American Gar dening: What manures are best to use depend*; in wane measure on the condition of the soil itself. If the latter be loose and well tilled w ith humus, we can well get along without stable manure and may put our sole reliance on fertili// rs. But after that comes the the question of the exact state of fertility of the soil. If there be plenty of isitash already in the soil, a good superphosphate would prob ably give good results, and it may be used ;tt the rate of from 2.>0 pouuds ]>er acre upward. In most eases, however, we will have have to apply potash in some form if we desire the best results, and there is nothing better than wood nslu s, or perhaps cottonseed hull ashes. If these cannot be had, muriate of pot ash may be used. Tobacco refuse would also Is* a good thing to shpply the pot- asb. Wood ashes may boused at the rate of 60 to 200 bushels per acre. If nn- leuched, we may add a few hundred IMuinds (and up to half a ton per acre) of bone. If leached, wo simply give a double or treble dos<- of the ashes. The application;; can be made at al most any time of the year. A few hun dred pounds of nitrate of sola jx-r su re might lx* scattered over the l>ed in early spring in order to push the early growth, suid after the cutting season to help the plants to lay up a strong reserve store in their roots for next year’s erop. Wo like to have the rows alsmt five feet apart. It will do, however, if the plants stand 2Lj f '»t apart both ways, al though < veil then we consider 3jc or 4 fe« t better. rori: onames m iawv making. ness of the surface, attention ought to he given to the general appearance of the grade, lu the illustration here re produced from American Gardening are, shown lour views of the same section of a lawn and illustrating the effect of various lawn contours. The upper grade strikes the eve as being uncomely, l>e- cause of the ill shaped finish bestowed on it in construction. It is, moreover, so uneven that it cannot well be k< pt in good order. The second section shows the same lawn nicely graded, as with a level. It affords no variety in its contour, as natural landscape's do, with rare excep tions. The third grade is slightly dish ing, which of all forms for small grass areas is the worst. It is eomparatively characterless, having indeed a depress ing etf'ct on the beholder. In pleasing contrast with this is the stylo at the bot tom, which shows a swelling contour through its center, which at on^e satis- fi' s the eye of good taste. It is a stylo that may well serve as a pattern for the average small “dooryard” lawn. The illustrations refer to laud that is level or nearly so, lit nee might not ap ply to grounds that possess natural un dulations. In the latter ease it is advised that slight unevennesses be reduced, in order to facilitate the use of the mower, especially near the house, but in the main there might be no objection to retaining some natural variations cf the surface. A ruin that must bo adopted in lawn grading is to have a good depth of fer tile surface soil over all parts as finish cd. This may vary from -1 to 8 indies in thickness, according as the lawn is with or without access to hydrant wa ter. If all work up to this stage and also the final plowing, smo< thing, rak ing and rolling, could be done in the fall and the final touches be left until spring, thus securing thorough settling of the soil, the lawn will not lose its shape. In the absence of either over winter settling or of a heavy interven ing rain, if the surface is everywhere thoroughly tramped by horses when the soil is so dry that it will not pack, this Death of Samuel T. Cutting. Our community was startled Tues day evening just before 7 o’clock by the news that Samuel T. Cutting had suddenly expired at his home in West- ville. Mr. Cutting bad heen a sufferer from Bright’s disease for some time, but, was able to be around, and was out the day previous to his death. He was sitting in his chair at the time of his death and passed away quietly. Deceased was one of our host known citizens having been prominent in political and town affairs, and being one of the hoard of registrars for a number of years. He was of an extremely social and jovial disposition, having a joke or story always at command, and could for hours entertain a gathering in a pleasing and interesting mqnner. I or se v, ral years he hud conducted a country grocery store, from which he derivi d a goodly remuneration. Mr. Cutting leaves two daughters. Mrs. George \V. Cady and Miss Martha Cuttting, also a son, who is in busi ness in the South. Funeral services were held at, his late home yesteday, and the remains were interred in Oak Ridge cemetery. —The Soul hbridge Herald. Mr. Cutting was the father of Sup- intemler.t 8. L.

If the ground ca:i be well prepared early in the spring and the need sown at that time, tin: ehunres for securing a g' Od stand of beets are much greater than if the sowing lie delayed until later. One serious difficulty in securing a good ataud of the beets when sown later in the season is, according to a Rural New* York* r correspondent, that the young plants do not become estab lished before the ground becomes so dry that they suffer, if they be not killed entirely from the drought. The Mam moth Long Red and the Yellow Ovoid have proved the most satisfactory with me. The Yellow Globe has not given so great a yield per acre as the varieties limned. Mangels like a deep, rich loam that is quite warm and dry. A dump lowland w ill sometimes produce large yields of mangels of an inferior quality. A Hoop, rich loam in a nigh state of cultivation that is well drained is ad mirably suited for tin* cultivation oi this erop. Wheat by the Campbell Method. '‘Raising wheat by the Campbell method—that is, by drilling and culti vating—aaves a bushel or more i>er acre in set d, as one jx*ek plants the uem, and five jss ks or more are used when sown broadcast.” This statement is made by The Texas Farm and Rauch, w hich also tells the following: “A former of Austin county planted uu acre, in the Brazos Is it tom, drilled, and old wheat growers who saw it wdieu well headed cat said it was the finest they had ever seen, and that it would moke 60 bushels of grain. It was never harvested exempt as gm*n feed, fur there Were no mills there to grind it,” edge;; Ronnr.i), lead: fop.seeding. may answer nearly as well us the other ways. 'A perfect tool for smoothing is a “float,” consisting of two pieces of scantling about 6 feet long, on which are nailed inch boards a foot apart, connecting one scantling with the other 8 feet apart. To add effectiveness the driver stands on it %vhcn passing rough places. Next mark out the walks and drives and the edging of the beds and borders, preparatory to defining all such edges with a line of sods. In the illustration A shows a walk, B B B, a bed and the borders of a lawn ready for seeding, all the edges being this defined. The oper ation is a simple one: First, some sod is eut and rolled; second, a slight de pression about half as deep as the sod is thick is made in the lawn, and here the sod is put in place and thoroughly beaten with the back of a spado to settle the grass roots firmly. Pin< apple* For Market. The fruits ripen generally in May and June, hut are usually gathered and shjp;n*d before fully mature. In gather ing, the fruit of the Spanish variety is usually broken off, while the fancy kinds are eut or broken off, a long stem being left attached, which is cut off smooth after breaking. All possible care .should be taken to avoid bruising. Be fore packing, the fruit is usually taken into t he packing house and "coled. In the fancy sorts some careful packers coat the cut end of the stem with par affin. The crowns are left attached and sold with the fruit. In Florida the fruit is packed in crates of a standard size, 12 by 20 by 3(5 inches. These are known as whole or barrel crates. For the f anoy varieties half crates, 12 by 10 by 36 inches, are generally used. In packing, each fruit is usually wrapped separately in thin paper. Shipping in bulk, which is the usual method in the Lahamas and West Indies, is not practiced in Florida T. MlfctltM. vf* GAKISU* JCOISV18 A JIAUICit' IfrA'lt Maiiufatft iii'cix, mffncsr, m. C'.
