The Anderson Grange.


The dinner party given OIL last Saturday
by Hon. B. +. Crayton to the Anderson
Grange and some invited guests, was most
pleasant and enjoyable occasion. About
forty persons from different sections of the
County were present, and spent conside-
rable portion of the day in the examination
OF the crops, farming arrangements and
stock belonging to their host, and all pres
ent were not only interested but profited by
their observations. All of the crops upon
the place are well advanced. showing thor
ough preparation and skillful cultivation.
The oat and corn crops, taken as whole,
were decidedly ahead Of anything We have
seen in the County, and the cotton crop is
among the best. After spenting some time
in this very entertaining review, the party
returned to the house, where bountiful
and tempting repast awaited, and was most
heartily partaken of by them. Mr.. G. F.
Tolly presided over the meal, and at its
conclusion insisted that the feast should be
followed by all address from the host, on
the ground that one good turn deserves
another. The demand was generally Sec
onded, and Col. Crayton responded in
brief and appropriate manner, confining
himself to agricultural matters, showing
the progress made in Anderson County, and
the interest he had taken in that progress.
He referred to the Grange and its work,
commencing its social features most highly,
and closing with the hope that all present
had spent pleasant day, and that others
would be called on for short addresses. In
accordance with the last suggestion several
others were called for and briefly responded,
after which the party adjourned to the
splendid spring near the residence, whore
the remainder of the evening was passed in
conversation until the party dispersed for
their respective homes.

A New Effort of the Y. NJ. c. A.

At the late meeting of the State Convcn-
ton of the Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton. the State was divided into six districts,
and q resident chairman appointed for each
district, whose duty it is to interest Chris
tian people in the work of the Associations.
Mr.. Fl. G. Scudday, of this place, is the
chairman of the fifth district, which is
composed of Anderson, oconec and Pick
ems Counties, A better appointment could
not have been made, as Mr.. Scudday is an
earnest and most Jealous worker, and is
thoroughly posted as to the needs and re-
ouirements necessary to make the work OF
the Associations more efficient and effective.
One of the duties Of the chairmen will be
to hold district meeting once year in
each of their districts.

A Matter Of Interest to Farmers and Me-
chanicS.

10
chanics.
At the last regular session of the Legisla-
ture an Act was passed creating on Agri-
cultural Department, and Col. A. P. Butler
was elected Commissioner of the Depart
ment. This action on the part of our law
makers was an important recognition Of the
rights of the agricultural classes, and as it
was more for the development Of the agri-
cultural and mechanical resources OF the
State than for any other interests that the
Department was created, it is sincerely
hoped that all farmers and mechanics par
ticularly will Co operate with the Commits
sioner in his efforts to make the Depart
ment credit to the State and farmers and
mechanics alike.
From a circular recently issued by the
Commissioner, We make the following ex-
tracts:
We will soon have, at the rooms of the
Commissioner in Columbia, cases or apart
ments for each County, and it is our desire
to exhibit the products of every County
and we request that every citizen will feel
that this circular is directed especially to
him and aid the Department by all means
in his power. The Commissioner will neg
lect nothing that will advance the agrieul-
tural and mechanical industries Of the State,
and he confidently relies upon the people
to sustain him.
We desire to have samples of the products
of every County. They will be carefully
erranped in the proper cases and plainly
marked with the name Of County and con-
tributor. We want specimens Of wheat,
corn, oats, peas, rye, barley, rice, buck
wheat, fax, peanuts, tobacco, cotton, mil
let, clover and grasses, dried fruit, chufas,
molasses, wines, woods minerals, stone,
marble, any article used for agricultural or
mechanical purposes manufactured in the
State native birds, insects, and, in short,
anything and everything that will show the
wealth Of the County, aid and encourage
home manufactures and prove interesting to
visitors.
The importance of having such an ex-
hibit at the capitol is apparent. 1t will be
our best advertisement in showing our Won
derful resources, and more can be learned
in this way, by strangers seeking informa-
ton, in q day than in years travel. 1t
will be fine medium of exchange, pur-
chase or sale of seeds to our own people,
and in learning more Of our capabilities. l
earnestly appeal to you to aid me in this
great work by sending any article for exhi-
bition that you think would be at all inter
esting. They should be plainly marked
and addressed to A. P. Butler, Commits
sioner of Agriculture, Columbia, S. G.
The Department will pay all expenses OF
shipping.
