A Dastardly Lie.

A report comes that J. Fl. Baker, late
of Enterprise, was shot dead in his land
Office at Wa-Keeney a few days ago. AS
the matter has not been telegraphcd to
the press we consider the rumor false
Enterprise Dickinson Co.. Anti- nonopo''sf.
Nothing could be further from the
truth. Mr. Bakers relations with every
one, as far as we know have been pleas
ant, especially so with the cowboys, some
of whom are reported to have done this
deed.
If business jealousy has prompted this
report, the original reporter cannot be
dealt with too vigorously.

AN HISTORIC HAM.
It Endured in a Back Carrot Twenty
two Years.


From the Chattanooga Times.
During the war DIR. Hezekiah Terrell,
of Maury county, Tennessee, killed and
cured large lot of hogs. 1t was when
rations were scarce with both armies,
and for security he put his hams in can
vass and swung them in the dark attic OF
his residence. From time to time as the
family needs required ham was brought
down and 1t was supposed that the entire
lot had been consumed. This was mis-
take, for on March last, just about the
hour Mr.. Cleveland became President. a
lone ham was accidentally discovered,
which had been swinging in the dark at
tic for twenty-five years. 1t was found
10 be sweet and perfectly sound.
Early in May, on the Goth birthday OF
Mrs. DR.. Terrell, this ham was served at
her anniversary dinner, when children
and grandchildren met around the ances-
trial board and partook of the ancient
ham.
DR.. Terrell is a dyed-in-the-woo Demo
crat, but withal genial gentleman of the
olden time. lie thinks the finding of this
ham-22 years old-presages n good and
bountiful Democratic administration to
the country. 1t will be observed this
ham escaped the foragers aud plumber
hunters OF both armies and came TO light
JUST when the Democrats resumed control
of the government.

Farm Facts.
GEORGIA.

From Marietta 10 Canton the crops
along the road are very fine.
A large acreage of peanuts has been
planted in Cobb county the present sea-
son.
The crops around Mt. Olivet, in Cobb
county, are very fine and growing finer
every day.
Mrs. A. X. Jackson, Of Albany, has
just picked two cabbages weighing re-
spectiyely II and IL pounds.
Wheat is being harvested in Barlow
county. Though ''too thin" 1t is likely to
turn out some better than was hoped.
II. r. Mash, of Albany, is showing a
sample of "white blackberries." They
are OF dark pink color, and different in
flavor from the blackberry, II being more
like that OF the goOseberry. They were
grown in his4garden.
Monday twenty-four empty cars, mostly
Of the ventilated sort, were backed by an
engine to the top OF the grade near Judge
Vason's, on the Arlington extension, near
Albany, and turned adrift. They we're
presumably destined for the melon men
along the line Of the railroad a short dis
lance out from the city.
In Walker county the prospect for corn
is better than IL has been for number Of
wears. II the seasons continue while
Longer as they have been, there will be an
abundant yield. Wheat cutting is In or
der. but only a small amount Will be the
reward OF the planter. The cat prospect
is fair. Cotton is in the grass, aud will
need a week Of pretty weather yet 70 clean

Asa general thing cotton and corn
never looked finer in sumter county at
this season Of the year. The stand Is
very even and the color good. Sumter
county will make more corn this year
than for many years, as the acreage is
large and the stand splendid. The only
complaint from the farmers IL thaso OF too
much grass, occasioned Dy the late rams
but they are generally keeping it under
control.
Farmers from various parts OF Monroe
county report that the oat ana wheat

crops, on being harvested, are proving
TO be better than 1t was expected they
would be, and especially the oats. The
corn crop prospect is very good indeed,
and the crop is growing rapidly under the
frequent showers. In some parts of the
county heavy rains have fallen during the
past week, accompanied In one or two
sections with considerable wind, but no
serious damage has been reported there
from. The young cotton looks healthy, is
growing, and the farmers are working
with vigor to put II in good condition.
A very destructive hail storm passed
through Madison county on June is. 1t
commenced near Daniels ferry, on Broad
river, injured a number of crops, and
almost totally ruined others, while still
others were entirely destroyed John
Moore's entire crop was totally destroyed,
leaving nothing upon the land. He win
plant his whole farm in corn and peas.
III Rowe's crop was also destroyed. He
and his hands are working by the day
wherever they can get work. 5. GholstOn
suffered some loss upon portion of his
farm. The storm passed out of the county
about Flat Shoals, on South river, near
Rev. J. II. Webb's, and continued as far
into Oglethorpe as Sandy Cross, and per-
haps much farther. In Madison county
the track of the storm was about three
miles wide. Hail stones lay piled up
after the storm, the neighbors say, II
inches deep and in drifted places Is
inches. Birds were killed all along the
track, and the land where crops were
growing looks as if it was just plowed up
for planting.

From reliable sources it is learned that
a company of Arizona and California
capitalists have purchased 10000 acres of
the DisstOn lands in Orange county,
which is to be converted into a farm for
raising improved breeds of cattle and
sheep. J. G. Slovin, of Arizona, was the
agent sent here for perfecting the
purchase, he beng himself one Of the
heaviest stockholders. The land is to be
fenced and houses for stockmen, barns
and cattle sheds erected. The men en-.
gagged in the undertaking have their mil
lions, and understand thoroughly the
stock and herding business.
Palatka Herald: Capt. E. r. Mexican
has just returned from Washington,
where he has been for several days on
legal business. While near Washington
city, in Maryland, he captured several
specimens Of the 17-year lOcusts that are
now doing so much damage in that sec
ton. These specimens resemble the ordi-
nary locust in appearance and size,
and from the innocent express
sion on the broad counte-
nance of one of the young ones no one
would think them capable of doing so
much damage. Capt. Mexican also
brought along several twigs from peach
tree, showing how they eat the tender
limbs and deposit their eggs under the
bark. These lOcusts are rare curiosities
in this section, and the box of specimens

make some other point. Judge Thomas
was very patient with him, but as there

judge Thomas became exhausted. AT last
