WE are in favor of white suprem acy, but we are also of opinion that elections should be honestly condacted.

We do not un ler stand the workings of the nu.h talked of "ississippi Pan," but it it pl.ices the result of ths electi.,m en:lely in the hands of the election officers we should be opposed t it. .THE Ligi,lature of Maisachuset:s has sent a comnmittee of its members South for the purpose of stu l inJ the causes of the removal of New Ensland capital to the Piedmont region. The committee will return Riser if sadder mei. The reason is th-it the Piedmont region is more suitable in every way for the investment of capi-al than New England. The climate and- natural resources of the Iliedmont escarpmnen t are among the finest on the globe, and the close-fisted investors of the North -are beginning to find it out. We should not be surprised to hear that the members of the Massachusetts comniittee had conclud-nl to come down themselves. Paov BAILEY, of Cornwell Univer sity, has been .makIng some very in *teresting experiments in the effect of electric light on growing plants. His i~dea was to substittite electric light for sunlight at night. The conclusion~s reached were that different p!ants be haved differently under the electric light influence. Lettuce matured two weeks earlier and spinach electrically grown was seeding when that grown *by sunlight alone was forming large leaves with indications of seeding. The experiments suffice to show how wide a field lies before the gardeber of the future in respect of his business in bringing to his aid the electric rays in producing early growths of certain *plants. THE Young Men's Business League, of Charleston, has distributed reprints of an article of R. H. Edmnonds, editor of the Manwuacurers' Record, written his paper urging the planting of corn by Southern farmers. The League says: "The souncla.ense of this article ** sboilld'iipress the importance of corn raising du'ring this year and| all years to come upon our farmera."| A copy of the circular has bceen sent THE NEw#e AND hERALD and we print it hoping the farmers of Fairfield may realiza "the sound sense of the arti-| cle." The total production of corn in the United States in 1894 was 1,212,000,000 bushels, a decrease of over 400,000,000 bushels as compared with 1898, and a decrease of 850,000,000 bushels as comn pared with 1891. Fortunately the South had a large crop this year, or otherwise it would have had to pur chase its corn at a very high figure, be-| cause of the great shortage. As the average crop of the United States for some years has been about 1,700,000, 000 bushels, the production of the last two years is over 500,000,000 bushels. short of the average. The country will therefore enter opon the next crop year with a very small stock of corn on hand-so small, indeed, that even should we hare another 2,000,000,000 bushel crop, as in 1891, it would re quite all of this enormous yield to make up for the deficiency of the last t wo 3 ears. Even should such a crop as this be produced, prices would probably still be high, because of the decrease in 1894. Another small crop. following the one of last year would necessarily mean exorbitant prices for corn. Because of these facts it becerne, miore imperative than ever before that the Sont~h should increa'e its cornt acreage this year. The South's large crop last yerar w'z due more to a heavy yield per acre thant to a large increa-e itn acreage. If this section is to main - tain its independence of the West so far as corn is concerned, every cffn t should be made to urge uponi farme the import ance of panting a larg- r acreage this year th~an ever betore. With a bile corn crop the Siouth is bet ter prepared to stand low priced cot toln than it couid in any other way. It behooree every trade organ zateie u in the South, an'd every business man individually, as well as th ' pre s, to' persistently er rt all possible influence to encouratte an increase of acrease in corn and o:her food suppli. If trte-vigorous. work or ate pre s 5 tetive personal co-operation of bank !rs, business men and all others who ieal with farmers, it will be possible o secure an increase of 25 or more me. cent in the acreage devoted to corn Li,.1 fjxistuffs compared with last year. The vital interest which the entire Sonth h .s in the increase of its grain production', which a!so means an in :rease in the supply ot provisions, prompts the Manufacturers' Record to ress this matter upon the attention of -ver; man in the bo:li.

E're asked at least a thousand times, But never met with one that knew What the Katy's did. rhe Katys did, all say they did, Cunning and sly they must have been, No listening ears have ever heard. Or prying eves have ever seen, What the Katys did. Did they steal hearts? All say they did; Stole them by the hundred, too; Made playthings of them for awhile, Some say thats wh t the Katys do, Yes, the Katys do. Yes, Katy did, I'll tell the truth, Some h w she sole my heart away, And when I asked for recompense, She smiled and gave her own for pay. That's what Katy did. Yes, Katy did, and so did I; We both said yes, she's by my side I'll hold my precious jewel fast For Katy did is now my bride. Yes, Katy is my bride. The girls are all sweet Katy-dids, Full of love and cunning too, What would earth be without their smiles? Say men and boys what would you do Without a Katy-did? N-ow, boys, stir up, try and get A Katv-did such as I won, You'll gain the greatest joy in life, God's best gift beneath the sun, A loving wife. Buckhead, S. C.
