The Executive Committee of Pomona
Grange.

at the regular meeting in July, Po-
mona Grange increased the number of
her Executive Committee from three to
seven, and distributed the membership
over her Jurisdiction to facilitate the
means of obtaining correct ind prompt
Information from all parts of the County.
The names of the Committee we have
given in former number of this column.
1t remains to be seen how well the means
are adapted to the ends contemplated.
A meeting was called for the frat Mon
day in August. The old Committee and
one of the new attended. AS there was
not full attendance, no action was taken
towards organizing for business, and the
first Monday in September was appointed
for the next meeting The old Commit
tee, with two of the new attended, and
promptly organized by electing J. w.
Norris Chairman and T. B. Lee Secre-
tary. Several subjects of interest to the
Order were discussed, and the Committee
adjourned to meet on the first Saturday
an September in the Grange Hall. The
old Committee were present and devoted
their attention to such mattero of busi-
ness as demanded prompt action. and
appointed another meeting for saleday
in October next, to be held in J. B.
Watson's store at 10 O'Clock q. m. A
full meeting is desired, and prompt at
tendance will dispatch business.

TO raise forty dollars. Yet how MANY
citizens worth not the half of ten thou
sand dollars now pay twice forty dollars
year in tuition feesS A local tax is the
cheapest means of raising money. Every
one is aware of tho abuse of the local
tax during the days o. Radicalism. But
1t can be so hedged around with restric-
tions as never again to become burden.
The scheme is as follows: Let it be con-
fined 70 those towns in which graded
schools are located. Let the extreme
limit Of the levy be 6xed at say two
mills. Let vote of O majority of those
persons paying taxes Other than poll tao
be required to levy it. The taxpayers
will then have the matter in their own
hands, and cannot be compelled 60 pay
the tax against their will. The restric-
tion of the vote TO certain class is per-
fectiy legitimate. The constitution pro.
vides expressly that no capitation tax,
other than the poll tax, shall be levied.
This local tax is, therefore, to be paid
only by those persons owning property.
And as the poll taA payers are not affec-
ted by the levy Of this extra tax, they
have no right to demand q vote; while,
if the tax is levied, they are benefited
indirectly through the superior advanta-
ges afforded of educating their children.
Since it is much simpler for town to
levy tax of five hundred or thousand
dollars than for the citizens to subscribe
that amount, an earnest effort should be
made to restore this tax with the lim;ta-
tions mentioned above. Thie method is
in vogue in q very largo number of
States.
1t is needless to cry out against the
public schools. They are O fixed fact.
They are cheaper than private schools,
and can be made better. In perfecting
the system, South Carolina will be march.
ing abreast, not only of every other State
in the Union, but Of Germany and other
European nations. No one in casting a
glance over the State and seeing the large
number o. children, born of educated
parents, now growing up in ignorance,
will deny that we are relapsing, an3 that
something must DO done speedily 20 check
this downward career. The garest reme-
dy is the otScnization Of graded schools
in all the towns in Scaih Carolina. MAY
their day be not far distant.

Oats, 7 Peas sssa.s aas Era.

The following remarks taken from the
agricultural department. of the Ms,cs end
Courier, are very suggestive TO our farm
era at this season:
Now is the time to begin to turn over
the land for the small grain crop. or for
the cultivated crop of next year. If your
land has coat of weeds on it, hitch two
mules to turning plough and bury, if
possible, every -veatige, of vegetable mat
teri keep stock ofsof II, and it will mako
no matter NOW copipieteiy your iand is
turned upside down, even though it be
red clay. An excellent opportunity is
now offered our Anderson farmers to ex-
pertinent in this way as they have no
fences, and will not be troubled by ramb-
ling stock on their ploughed land all
winter. Turn your land deep and close
now, and let US know the result next
year.
IL you have peas sown as a iS-tilizer,
gather just enough to save seel lor the
same land next year, and turn under the
balance as soon as the earliest pods are
picked off. Sow this land in oats and
drag the land, leaving the surface smooth
! and even. The reapeis next summer
will tell .yon why shis should be done.
If any half acre of any kind of land,
sandy, grey or RED, he made rich, thor.
oughly rich. and well ploughed, and
then sown in rye, using three pecks of
seed If broadcast, or half bushel if
sow1 in the drill, there can be harvested
from 1t before next June perhaps more
green forage than will be furnished by
any other grain. It is not as valuable as
barley, but is a most welcome food to any
kind of herbivorous animal in the winter
or spring. Rye sown now on fair average
land will mike good calf pasture at a
time when other calf food is very scarce.

SPIRITUALISM IN JAPAN.

Mesmerists and mediums may hide
their diminished heads. There are two
old women in Japan who have the repu-
tation Of doing far more than any electro
biologist has attempted. Near the tenn
pie Ekoin, called the demon Baba, dwells
an old lady who casts out evil spirits
from suffering people and cures them of
all their complaints. When fever is en-
demic she is an important parsonage
and has more work than she can accom-
plish imposed upon her. Another old
woman, rejoicing in the name Of 0shaka-
kababa, is centenarian and very wrink-
led. This lady; when she condescends to
give her aid, swells out to an enormous
size. She says Shaka has entered her
stomach, and making use of her mouth
Shaka, veritable medium, answers all
manner of questions, tells the origin and
cure of sickness, and relates the doings
of the absent and the dead. It is said
that she is visited by all ranks Of people
Of both sexes and allages.
