Personal Mention. Mr. Editor: I see my lirst escaped the waste basket, and I will give you the news of our section in a short letter today. We j have had good rains lately, and the farners, as a rule, are pretty well up vith their work. Some few are not juite through "chopping" cotton yet, hut I think it will all be j "clapped" in two or three days, j "Clop" is the proper name for the way cotton is butchered now by the | _... i i * * jivmgi- juie nana, in onten tunes, I coton was hoed, but now it is; chojped, but somehow they man- j ageto make a lot of cotton. Corn phuting is completed, and we have ' fin* stands on the low grounds. 1 \ seethat the price of cotton is going | dom, and no wonder, when we thiik of the enormous crop that ha:been planted, and the favorable sping for working the crop. I am glril to say we have some few in oui section who diversify their crcfc. I know a few men who mae good money selling vegetables, frins and melons at Whitmire. I ha) in mind just now, Messrs. Roert and Willie Wilson, and Mr. C.V. T. Willard near Black {lock. Tly have something to sell all alag>during the year. They don't h?e to depend on cotton solely. 'he crop of blackberries is unusally fine this year, and in a day ortwo blackberry pies will be in orer. 'he health of our community is god now, but I am afraid blackbtries and plums will change the pigramme somewhat. Speaking of cut planting and the stand, 1 wald like you to see 'some corn lad prepared by thorough, deep baking with two muloe and then throughly harrowed right behind tl breaking with a tongueless disc h*row, and laid off with a middle "uster" and two mules. Then wen the corn was planted a long bl-tongue plow was run deep dvn in the bottom of that "bust" furrow, the corn dropped in tere and covered with two furrows. 1 just simply puts corn land or < ton land in fine fix. The stand < "jorn on this land is as neaT per- ' * M as I evor saw. J. I).
