TO the Editors Of the HGratd aEd udL
Allow me, through the columns OF
your paper, and without egOtism, /
think one OF the best papers in the
state, to make one or two suggestions.
First, the more we associate together,
the stronger the ties of friendship-the
free Interchange of ideas, the more bene-
fits TO be derived; and each one who de-
sires the prosperity of himself and
neighbor, can better be enabled to adj
vance that interest by euItiVatiug So
cial feeling and devising means by which
each are to be benefited. l notice for
the first time, the directors of our cOun~
ty fair have published a programme for a
spring fair on the Goth inst. This is tho
right move in the right way, and should
be encouraged. Let everybody attend,
It is only one day,and all who can bring
a horse, COW, sheep or calf, if you get
beat, all right you learn something.
Who can doubt the great improvements
in every kind OF stock, since tbs first
fair in Msury county-to say nothing
of the social enjoyments. Then We say
success to their undertaking, and show
our appreciation OF their efforts by at
tending. NlIlZEN

FOUNTAIN CREEK ITEMS.

Mr.. John Wilson, who lives about
three miles from this place, met with
sad accident a few days ago. His horse
fell with him and broke one OF his ribs,
besides hurting him otherwise; being an
old man, he could not take care OF him
self in the fall as well as If he had been
younger.
Mr.. J. b. Crazy is the most success
full sweet potato raiser in this neigh
borhood. BE raises from two to four
hundred bushels every year. People
come ten and fifteen miles IL the spring
to buy their seed from him. de never
sells them for less than two dollars per
buSheI. This year he is going to raise
slips to sell; he beded out thirty~hVe
bushels. He thinks he can make more
money raising slips than he can to sell
the potatoes. His slips will be 81
per thousand. Raising potatoes is like
making money. An old proverb says:
"any fool can make money but 1t takes
a wise man to save it," Most any man
can raise them, but very few put them
away so as to save them through the
winter. Mr.. Gracy's plan is this: he
has good warm, dry cellar, when he
puts his potatoes away, he has them
perfectly dry and mixes dry sand all
through them and then covers them
sufficiently deep to prevent them from
freezing. Potatoes when piled up go
through sweat, ana TUG uFy sdnu oO-
serbs this moisture.
w. G. Martin, one of the best farmers
in the country, has recently purchased
and introduced on his farm walking
cultiVator." This is the first that has
been brought to this community. Mr..
Martin keeps UP with the times IN Ag-
ricultural implements and gets the best
in the market.
If one is to Judge by the action OF the
county court the first Midday in May,
by reducing the school tax from five
cents on the hundred dollars to one mill,
the preamble and resolution that
were adopted by the cOlored convention
that recently assembled in the city of
Nashville, is the law of the land. They
have certainly acted hastily in the mat
ter. Is our county court more afraid of
a colored convention headed by a few
fanatical negroes, encouraged probably
by their white brethren, than they are
OF the same element in Congress, the
supreme law making power of the
land2 Would it not be time enough fore
the county court to pursue the coursl
she has, when Congress passes the Civil
Rights bill, giving the cOiored popuia
lation the same privileges in all our pub
lie institutions that whites have? Let the
Justices of the county think seriously
or this matter until the first Mon lay in
June, aa5 then come together and put
the tax back TO Eve cents, Of it will not
be two latey and let our public schools
go on.
