gloomy shadow over our town and Trenton

useful and beloved sons, Mr. B. w. Belts,
Jr., who died at his fathers home this
mornieg at 7 o'clock Mr.. Belts was
law graduate Of Washington and lee Uni
versity, Lexington, Va, and began the
practice of law about eight years ago at
Edgefcld Court House, his native County.
In remarkably short time he became one
of the most popular and successful lawyers
at the Edscfield bar. In 1882 he was
unanimously elected County Chairman of
the Democratic Committee, which position
he filled with credit to himself and honor
to the Democracy Of EIgefcld County up
to the time of MS death Many of the
best citizens of the County urged him in
1884 to enter the field as candidate for
State Senator. but he declined to give up
his law practice for 4 pursuit less remuncr-
alive and more annoying. Edgcfeld has
never produced a young mau upon whom
her people looked With greater pride ncr
of whom sEo expected greater achieve

which life has been suspended for several
weeks severed and his noble spirit took
its fight to that abode where all is peace.
In his death Edgc6cld has lost distin-
guishcd lawyer, an honorcd citizen and
faithful worker in the cause of Democracy
An affectionate son and devoted brother,
kind friend, an elegant gentleman, he
maintained that propricty Of conduct which
commanded the love, respect and admira-
tion he so-richly deserved, and with the
dignity and the forttudc of conscious rec

swung open. One-half of the peril over, he
thought. AS he stepped out to cross the
open space up to the main doorway, he
felt his limbs quiver beneath him. Weak

tell. He knew that he was in full view of
the windows of the kitchen, the back Of

SCALES ON TIE FARM.--Thero are
a afarnaars who do not properly estimate
<be eaof being able to weigh ioeurhe
farm whatever may be produced thereon,
especially that portion to be sold. The
dealer in stock, who comes to your farm to
buy, is estimating and weighing daily, and
becomes so expert that he can guess the
weight ofan animal within few pounds.
The majority Of farmers cannot do this.
The dealer is going to buy as cheap as be
can. He asks the farmer his price. The
reply is often made that he does not know
what it is really worth; what will he pay for
it. The reply is, he cannot buy and sell;
you must set the price. If the farmer is
really ignorant of its value the dealer soon
discovers it and acts accordingly.
Last fall bought flock of sheep to
raise early lambs. Not having kept sheep
for years, l was not posted; bat raised
fue lambs. Some buyers were looking at
them, and priced them for the whole lot;
this was claimed to be too high. A few days
later the sheep were yarded, to be shorn
when number ofthe lambs were weighed
The next day one of tn, village butchers
met me and said he was just coming to see
me about those lambs. told him to 90
and look them over; he spent an hour
among them. You found some fine lambs?
Oh, fair, he replied. The first lamb
dropped was on March 20, the majority
after the first Of April. Now, in view of
their age, are they not more than fair?
He admitted that for their age, they were
very good. asked him what some of the
best Of them would weigh. Oh, about
forty five pounds, he repliod 1 smiled,
and asked him if he did not know ..any
better, remarking that it was useless
to beat around the bush, as was posted
on their weight, and that seventy was
nearer the mark than forty-fve. sot my
price, and h. bought them.
The next day met another of tn
village butchers and told him that had a
wether and that, as only wanted to keep
ewes, would sell it. told him S5 was nv
price, in answer to his inquiry. He said
he would give So so, ifa good one, but s5
was out Of the question. He said he would
give DC. per pound, (4I is the present
market price,. At his figures the sheep
was worth $3.50, at the market price $40.
This spring, in selling some grain, I
weighed the last load. The weight at the
warehouse and my weight did not agree;
