THE ANNUAL TREAT Sy the W. T. C. U. to the Band of Hope Noble Generosity of Hon. Geo. S. Mower. The temperaace Band of Hope cele )rated its anniversary yesterday after ioon. The spacious hall was beautifully lecorated with evergreen and flowers; be large portrait of Mrs. C. Mower, rho was for a long time president of he society, was wreathed in evergreen, ind a large white ribbon bow, the )adge of the, ociety, was placed on one xorner of the frame of the portrait. The programme was a very interest ng one, each of t:.e children taking >art in it, doing thEmselves credit. The following is the programme: 1st. Singing by all the children. 2nd. Scripture reading by the Presi lent, Mrs. Sophia Redus. 3d. Prayer by Rev. G. A. Wright. 4th. Singing by choir, "Glorious bat le ground." 5th. Recitation by five children, 'Which is best." 6th.

P. &icClintock. 9th. Solo and chorus, "Throw out the ife line." 10th. Distribution of presents. Rev. E. P. McClintock's address was very Interesting, among other things of nterest, he told the children of Mr. ,eo. S. Mower's interest in the work or temperance; how he had given and urnished the nice hall in which they itld their meetings, of his kindness in aving the portrait of his mother, their ormer president, made for their ball, and also his kindness in furnishing the noney necessary to carry on this great and good work, and for giving them uch nice treats as he does every year n the shape of such beautiful books nad delightful confections. Mr. McClintock's address 'was lis ened to with marked attention hroughout. It was very interesting odeed. We have no doubt that this society, o ably conducted by Mrs. Mower, and ince her death by Mrs. Redus, will ventually accomplish a great deal of ood to the whole of our community.

It was rumored here that during the neeting of the District Alliance last veek at Newberry that several caucuses vere held en political matters, and hat some conclusions were reached a-s o whom Mr. Latimer was to give his fluence for postmasters at Newberry nd Prosperity. No doubt these mat ers were talked over with Mr. Lati nr, and those who are wanting the >aces, or at least some of them, made :nown their wishes to him and tried o mpress him with their needs and fit ess for the positions. The Herald and ses does not believe any conclusion ras reached. Mr. Latimer told us that two things specially wonld-be cdnsidered by him a his recommendations for such posi-. ions and in the use of whatever infiu ce he might have. First and foremost in the appli ant would be his fitness for the 'lace and his ability to fill it nd his acceptability to the people ihom he would serve. And then the eeds of the auplicant, other things eing considered. In other words if a isabled Confederate soldier who was ompetent and efficient and acceptable hould be an applicant, he would give uch a one his endorsement. As yet he oes not know who all will be appli ants and of course canuot make up his aind before hand. Judging from this osition of Mr. Latimer we should say at no conclusion had yet been reached y him. He has in his possession already a umber of applications for the post ifice at Newberry, and some from ersons who live several miles from be postoffice. None of the applicants need yet des air, for there is still hope. F00D NEWS FORS GARDENERS.

DEAR SIR-According to promise send you herewith result of my expel ment with your fertilizer on one acre corn: In winter I broadcast 100 bushels cotton seed and turned it under; first May bedded out land and put in wat furrow compost of 400 pou:nds of yo1 Acid Phosphate, 30 bushels cotton see with some rough lot manure, ridgir on this. On 21st of May split this ridi and dropped the corn six to ten inch4 and put in the drill 200 pounds of yol Alkaline Guano. When corn was abo hand high I ran around the corn; tl rain set in and continued about eigl weeks. Between showers I went. with plow and put in two more ft rows, adding in drill 200 pouuds mnc of Alkaline Guano; at last of the w season I put two furrows in the mnidd with heel-sweep, running shallo After this eight weeks of wet weath we had a protracted dry spell for eig weeks, with no rain except one Jig] shower. The corn fired up where had been holding too much water the wet season. I do not know how much fodder got-it was a great deal. I gatbered the corn and measur every ear of it. I measured eighty-foi bushels. When I set out in the Sprir I wanted to make 100 bushels on os acre, and with the manure used at good work and good seasons, I cou have made my 100 bushels.' The way the season was the Is manuring did no good. Eight weel of wet weather, with only six;furrow and they put in too wet, I made eight; four bushels. The cost of manure, guano, cott< seed and labor all was $32.80. I had fourteen acres of corn plant< besides, and not manured as well. gathered 555 bushels. My cotton cr< was poor; will not quite average a ba to the acre. Yours truly, W. T. WALTON. NOCTICE. OFFI CE OF SCHOOL Co313MISsIONER. N EwBER RY, S. C., Jar. 24, 1893.
