It furnishes food and raiment for man, food for cows, sheep and hogs, and now we are told that horses may be fed most economically on hulls as a substitute for forage. WE are anxious to see the work of organizing P.ize Clubs throughout the county go on. Three clubs were re ported last week and we hope to hear of more soon. In- organizing these clubs the most practical part should not be l.st sight of, that of keeping in view that these clubs should be neigh borhood experiment stations. Not only the largest yield but the largest profit should be the object sought. PREsMENT CLEVELAND has put the question squarely to Congress as to whether the geld reserve be held by the treasury to redeem its notes shall be maintained by the issue of geld bonds. The President has been much abused on account of his sound money ideas but he has now left the matter to Congress. What that body will do no one can with any certainty predict. If they do not do something to settle -thll financial policy of the country with~ themu must rest the responsibility. TaB Nuws AID HERA.Dw has always been interested in the advancement of the educational interests of the county and is anxious to become the medium of commiunication through which the may reach each other in the discus sion of questions pertaining to the advancement of the schools. To. this end we have tendered the School Comn missioner the use of our columlns and hope to have something of interest each week in this line. Already we have had contributions from several teachers, and others are promised. GOmERTOR EvTAis has found that the system of book-keeping used by the - - dispensaries iv not satisfactory and he proposes to look into the matter and reorganize and reconstruct the machin ery of the department. This is proper. It is remembered that no intelligent statement could be gotten out of the published reports during the last cam paign. Charges of fraud were made and as often 'denied but the figures were so mixed that no two account ants could get the same results from them. This is all wrong, and the ad ministration owes it to the public and to themselves to see that a complete system is used. This can easily be done if the selection be submitted to competent accountants. The Gover nor is right and no doubt will have the matter attended to. TsE recent cold snaps have been most destructrive in Florida, the mer cury reaching the lowest point on re cord. Orange trees are nearly all killed and the pine apple interests in a deplorable condition. The cultivation of the latter has recently been pushed far up in the-State and had become an important industry. It is estimated that forty per cent of the pine apple plants were killed by the irst freeze and those left were damaged to such an extent that very little fruit could reasonably be expected. The present cold wave, reported more severe than the first, has probably destroyed the remaining. This is bad news from the sunny land of nlowers whose people have been congratulating them selves upon having felt none of the depression of the hard times. Now, however, they will have to fall in the procession and move on to the doleful term of "Hard Times." A Good schemeo whieh Failed to Carr in The Associate Reformed people of the city are deploring the fact that Rev. Mir. Todd accepted the presidency of the Due West College, as a plan was on foot to establish a college here with him at the head. The Osanva was informed of this two weeks ago, but was not at liberty to mention it. The idea was to rent the college and for Mr. Todd and Miss Lilny Long to< run the schol. Mr. Todd had prolfdied the Due West people to give them an1 answer Thursday, and the other plan j not having come to mnaturity, he ac eepted the offer from Due West.- Char- t lotte Observer.

'he happenings in this section for onetime were rather "tale, flat and uprofitable," and I did not feel iu elled to write you of them fearing hat they wonid fail to interest your eaders, but silence, although "gol en," like "patience" ceases to be a irtue sometimes and duty bids me vite without waiting longer for some hing new or startling to "turn up.' I thought to have one item of newi or your columns, that would be api o enlist attention, that of the only narriage that has taken place here bouts recently, but your reporter ver wide awake, did not wait for m4 o inform him. I refer to the mar iage of B. H. Yarborough to Misi Evelyn Yarborough, by the Rev. J. H iarborough, at the residence of tho )ride's father, Mr. R. T. Yarborough )n the evening of January 9. Tha ounds as if it was "all in the family oes it not?" We are as busy as bees trying. t keep warm for the snows, sleets, rain and blizzards succeed each other si rapidly as scarcely to allow us time tA thaw out. Winter is most assuredl; asserting her strongest characteristic this season, her reign is absolute it deed, and the crackle and glow of i bright wood fire affords us solid com fort just now-is enough to "deligb your heart" as the Irishman said abou the potatoes. Our jower gardens look as if a fir had passed over them. Many of th evergreens appear to have been kile and all are shedding their leaves. Farm work is out of the questio: almost. A few rails have been splil and a few cords of wood cut, betwee the rains and snows. This is the sut and substance of it. The cotton planters are casting side long, wistful glances at the fertilizer lying at the depots, yet fear to invel so largely as usual. They find it har indeed to leave the old beaten trac and plant less cotton. Rev. Mr. Dickson, the newly ai p->inted presiding elder of the Colun bia district, presided to the satisfactio of all at the recent quarterly meetin held here at Shiloh t.,harch. He. doe his official work quickly and thoi oughly, and preaches short, forcibb plain sermons. Mr. Willie Glenn, of Pendleton, C.; Mrs. Dr. Hough and Miss Sall] Chappell, of Honea Path; Miss Kai Hunter and Mr. Schumpert, of Nes berry County, visited friends and reh tives here a short while since. Dr. Jeter has about completed h drug store, and will move in sool I hear that Dr. Douglass, af Santui Union Co., will soon locate at Pea station. They need a resident phys cian there.

FZASTERYILE, Feb. 7.-There wi very little work done in this sectioni January. Hard times and the scarcity of mone is the great cry and hue among tU farmers. Almost everybody seems di spndent on secount of the low pric of cotton and the present depresse condition of business. There will not be quite so muc land cleared this year as there wa last year and the year before. I do not think there will be as muc commercial fertilizers used in this set tion as there has been heretofore. think it is a step in the path that leas to the highway of econemy, for errily believe that if the farmers ha all the money they have paid to guam cmpanies for the last twenty-fiv years they could pay off all the mor1 gages on their property and hav enough left to lay up something for rainy day. The health of the community is ver g.>od. The eats in this section were injure some by the cold weather three c four weeks ago. We are pained to chronicle the recet sad accident which occurred at Fis Dam ferry .on last Monday the 4t inst. While the Rev. Mr. Greshan wife and two children, of Darlingtoi who were crossing Broad River th it broke and Mrs. Gresham and hi twelve-year-old son were drownet Mr. Gresham swam to the bank wit bi little daughter and saved her lift Mr. Gresham was traveling by privat conveyance and was on his wayt Spartanburg County, to accept a ca to preach this year. He stopped i he community a day or t wo an preached a very interesting and hr presive sermon at Beaver Creel Baptist Churchi last Sunday. .His te2 was Matthew, 16th chapter, and 24t] verse. Many friends in this sectioi tender their sympathies in his bereave went, and trust that his loss will b the eternal gain of his beloved wifi nd child, for be well knows tha when the ways of God are most mys *erios and insomprehensible, they ari tofinitely wise. We were pained to bear of the recen leathofMr. Wade Williford, of Winns oro. Mr. Williford had made man' friends throughout the county by hia any acts of kindness and socia ualities, who will very much regre ;o hear of his unitimely death. His nany friends sympathize with the mily in their bereavement. Mr. VYiliford died too soon for his earthly ispirations, but not too soon for his ieavenly felicity.
