SOUTH CLINTON.
Mr.. J o. Willard returned to
Wake Forest on the 9Th inst, from
visit to relatives in this commu-
nifty.
South Clinton should return thanks
TO Mr.. 4 +. Johnson for the use of
the whistle at his factory, which an
swers every purpose of q dinner
horn.
Trucking is on n boom in this sec
ton. Some of the things planted
are wiz beans, peas, potatoes, on
ions, cucumbers, tomatoes and straw
berries.
Your correspondent at Wake For
est seems to be very impatient for
June to come so he can pick "big
blues" l am glad to inform said
correspondent that, If no damage is
done by frost, there will be tre-
mendous crop. Most of the land
owners are preparing to ship their
own berries, which, of course, will
be to great advantage. =
MIR. Editor; we are all looking for
ward to the day when the G. F. &
Y. V. Railroad will have trains run
ming on the old bed OF the Clifton &
Point Casweli road, from Clinton to
lngold. We think the stockholders
OF said road would gladly give their
interest to the c. F. & Y. V. Rail-
road if they will only put it in run
ming order. En- Mp
LITTLE COHARIE.
Mr.. EDITOR: AS you solicit cor
respOndence, / have concluded to let
you know that we, in West Little
Coharie, are alive and working stead
lily and mOdesly for our two little
cities, "Autryville" and "Hayne
Station" and for our anticipated
success on our farms.
One of our aspiring farmers finish
ed planting corn Thursday, the 4th,
at 2:2O o'clock sharp. Who can beat
it? Let us hear from Lisbon.
Who is "Snap?" We want to
shake his hand.
All around is heard the hum of
thrift, while our opening nostrils
catch the "spicy breezes" of the
loaded wagons, as its hopeful owner
merily plods his homeward way
with his unpaid for perfume, trust
ing in a miraculous yield of his
mortgaged crop to pay the oblig-
ing(?) mortgage and for his human
! qualifications, which, like his fertili-
ger, come plentifully on time. When
will our people learn to pay as they
go, and cast away that ruinous mort
gage system? If our farmers would
live on their incomes it would make
them more prosperous and cOntented
than all their "Granges" anil "Alli.
ances" have done under the credit
system.
Lest l trespass too much on your
space and the territory of "Plug,''
or the waste basket, I will close
wishing much success to the improv
ed CAUCASIAN and it's enterprisine
editor, and all the "Snaps," "Plugs,'
"Twists'' and "IIittle Brown Jugs
lwhen they hpve no whiskey il
them). | am very truly,
"PLUG, JR."

April fools in this section is nov
in order, but Providence has so smil

ceived one.
