A molasses mill 'is what we Ridge roadites have needed for a considerable time. So I can say, plant your cane, brother farmers; it will come. Old Uncle J. Adam Mayer has promised to establish one along this line, and we know that his word will do to rely upon. This is not a means of advertisement, Mr. Editor, but I would like to say to any one who is in your town, who wants a good, palatable lunch, to call on Mr. J. H. West. We know whereof we Weak. - Well, if we all live we will see what ve do see; but if I was disposed to bet I would bet a few beans that Old Uncle Ben will come out in the railroad case, as usual, on top. We suppose that the Boneyard Asso ciation closed last Monday until next fall. Some from this section went up to witness the closing exercises. * Two months and one week of the hew new year have passed and gone ind scarcely any planting has been done. Some of us farmers have begun to- say, "Did you ever see the like? Further behind than we ever have known ourselves with our farm work." But this is quite a mistake. If you will just call back to the spring of '89 gou will find that we are-not a bit worse behind. now than we were then. So don't fret, farmers, the days are getting longer; I think we will all'get enough before another nine weeks. What a pity, but nevertheless it is a fact, that there will be more commer Pial fertir'zers used this year through put this entire section of country than has been in a naimber of years. More fertilizers, we fear, means more cotton and less other home supplies. If this is the case, fellow-farmers, next fall will come in the same old cry of over production, and we will be left nap ping again with our six cents cotton. But here is one cause for so much more guano being used. The unprecedented rise in the price of cotton seed has caused a great many farmers to ex change them, which they intended to use for manure, for guano. Whether this is a -wise plan or not we are unable to say; but a little experience is the best guide after all, if it doesn't cost too much. Mr. J.?P. Mahon, a local agent of the Farmers' Mutual and Fire Insurance Association, passed through here a few weeks ago, working up an interest in this new' association. Through this company a farmer can get insurance very cheaply. Mr. Mahon said that he would be back through this section in the course of three weeks from the time he left. We have always heard never mind the weather so the wind don't blow. But the wind did blow on Saturday last, and It blew furiously. While we were sitting in the house, there was a puff of wind come along and moved a arg'e work bench some distance, tear ig It to pieces. Some shingles were blown from the roofs of houses; fencing was blown down and some small fruit trees were uprooted. Mr. T. L. B. Epps says his stove chimney was blown down.

Mr. Henry Boyd conducted the little cottage prayer meeting last Sunday night and gave a sound, practical talk in a forceful way. Mr. Joseph Kilgore will conduct the next service. The freeholders interested have pe titioned the Board of County Commis sioners to make Gift street, from Shock ley's corner to Gauntt street, a public road. The petition was granted by the Board at its meeting on Tuesday, and the road will now be worked. The wind blew great guns last Friday night and Saturday was wild and bit te cold. But how grateful we should be that only the expiring breath of the fateful Georgia cyclone reached us after its dreadful work of destruction. Thbe tidings are that several hamlets or villages were swept from existence. In an elemental war man is utterly helpless and dependent upon the Omnipotent who alone is mhighty to sucour and to save. Some of the small er or weaker houses' in Helena trembled under the wares of the wind and a few fences went down.

McCreigbt, of the Darlington Herald, and Miss Sophie M. Brown, daughter of the late.Dr. Thomas C. Brown, of Newberry. DEATRS. Mr. John B. Smeltzer, son of the late Rev. Dr. Smeltzer, died of consump tion in Columbia on Thursday, 2nd instant. He left a wife and one child. Mrs. Lavinia McFall died at her home in Newberry on Wednesday af ternoon, March 1, 1893, aged 52 years. She had been in failing health for some time, but her illness was not con-I sidered serious until a short time.before the end. She was a good Christian woman, an exemplary member of the Baptist Church and died in peace. She leaves a devoted family of children to mourn her death. Hers was a lovely and lovable charac ter. As mother and stepmother she was equally indulgent, affectionateand kind. In her was ever found a thought ful, considerate neighbor and true friend. By her first marriage,with Capt. Jno. M. Kinard, she leaves two sons-Jno. M., Clerk of Court, and Jas. P., a stu dent in Johns Hopkins University; and by her marriage with Capt J. Y. McFall four children-two sons and two daughters-now indeed bereft. Though lost to our sight her memory will live in the hearts of all who came under her gentle influence. - "Blessed the dead who, dying in the Lord, Rest from their labors. That sweet A rest be thine.
