GREENvINE, May "a.
Sacred writ tells us that the ways
of the transgressor is hard; taking
that.as a verified fact, the farmers
IN this vicinity RAY be numbered
with the transgi essors, for their
ways this spring have surely been
hard. Plant and plant again has
been the order of the day with the
farmers; never since the first cot
ton seed was planted in Washing
ton county have the planters ex-
perienced so much difficulty in get
ing n sand; so.,e rave planted
cotton three and four times, and in
one or two instances parties have
planted the same land FIVE times !;
the trouble in getting a stand has
no doubt been caued by cold wealth
er in April and a close succession
of heavy beating rains since they
first commenced planting. The
cotton crop is at least 40 days
later than at this date last year.
And to say the least of it the crop
prospect is very gloomy, but it is
an old adage, that the darkest time
fthe night isjust befo. e the dawn
of day. So the farmers generally
console themselves, that there is a
brighter and better day close at
hand. During thunder storm on
Tuesday night, the lightning struck
the steeple on top of tho dome on
the Baptist Church at this place,
the bolt passed down through the
dome, taring the planks off the
dome and damaging one end of the
house; the damage to the building
may be put down at $50. Forum
ately the house was not set on fire.
lightning rods are in demand in
Greenvine. A new postoffiee has
been established in the county and
about 4 miles from this Office call
ed Latimur, and Mr.. H. o. Cor
nitius, appointed post master at
SAID office. His Office will be sup
piled with mail matter through
this Office.
A contract has been let out to
contractors, for the building of
Lutheran chcrch house at Green
vine, which when completed, will
be an ornament to our city, and
reflect credit on its members.
