Col. Nerncr'S Address.
\. S. WEl.crI.

The York County Teachers Asso-
citation met at Yorkvillc on the I'd
of November. Col. j. $. Werner
was introduced by Prof. Thackston
to the Association and delivered an
excellent address on "raxation for
Education.' He believed that the
best educators are the newspapers.
le had them i'm his home for many
years and expected to keep them
there. In the course Of his remarks
he referred to the magnificent re.
sources of the State and brought
statistics to show how favorably this
State could compare with others in
progress, although with :. burden Of
100000 negroes cited around her
neck" lie spoke Of Charleston, the
pride Of South Carolina, and her
noble people in the most nattcring
terms and showed the great assist
ancc she is rendering to the interior
towns. lie then went on to speak
of the great importance of cduca-
ton and various plans pursued in
the State for raising an educational
tax. Advised the judicious use of
this money in getting good teachers
and paying them good salaries. by
means of statistics he showed that
each teacher on an average would
receive $9l and some cents year
which was not enough. The adj
dress was heartily enjoyed by all.

interrogation point after each sen
tencc that asks a question. Fo
seat work request them to ask a
many questions about some obicc
(naming it) as they can. Suppose
you select rat. They can write I.
the rat bad? Is the rat small? and
many others. BY selecting different
nouns, and introducing various ad.
jcctivcs, you can extend this work
almosc indefinitely, without intro,
ducing new words.
Teach the word on. Place the
bell on the desk and ask where it is.
They will answer The bell is on

They will stop Mt the word on, bn-
cause they have not had it before.
Write it for them. In similar
manner teach the word IN. Plenty
of scat work will nuw suggest itself.
Teach a proper name or two: as,
Ann, Nat, John, or some other names
familiar to the children, beginning
each with a capital. Teach the word
h"$. More scat work will suggest
itself. (Ann has bird; The boy
has bat.)
Some teachers claim that before
taking reader, pupils should learn
many more words than have been
given here, but if the teacher has
faithfully followed the method given,
the pupils have had the words SO
many times and in so many different
positions, that they readily rccog-
nizc them as soon rs they see them
Besides this stock of words well
learned, they have learned to think
and to construct sentences of their
own.
Before taking the reader, the
chanyc should be made from SCRIPT
to print. Write on the board some
thing like this: The girl has pan,
and print the same sentence directly
under it. Nearly every pupil will
read the printed sentence correctly
the first trial. Two or three days
will be all the time required to make
the change. The pupils are now
ready for the first reader.
The time for Il recitation during
this chart work should not exceed
ten minutes, or fifteen ut the utmost
H. the conversation about Objects
train pupils to speak pleasantly and
promptly, not with Il drawl.
All sentences should be written
with proper capitals and puntcuation

The Cotton Fields of South Carolina.

WALIAlL.A, S. c., October II, 1889.
-ltvcrybody knows that the staple
product of the Southern States is
cotton and that Sonth Carolina is a
great cotton producing State, but
very few people who have never
seen cotton field can form an idea
OF It's appearance nor appreciate the
magnitude of this great enterprise
without Il careful study Of the facts
and figures that one years labor in
the fields show. In this article I
will cndcavor to present to the read
crs OF the Ne~$ a pen picture Of the
fields as | see them, and then to re-
view some Of the wonderful results
that the figures of last years cotton
crop reveal. The cotton field pre-
scnts an cnti.cly different aspect

as useless, but now oil is extracted
and then the balance is made into
meal. The seeds sell for twnnt,
cents a bushcl.
Now we will consider the annua
product, price, etc.
Last january, 1883, II. ~. Wilson
IL Co., made and estimate that tho
product for 1888 would reach 6,934,-
994 bales, and the actual figures
were G,935,082 bales. A bale is SUP
posed to weigh .t40 pounds and was
worth 81 cents per pound on the
average. Where did this immense
amount of cotton go to? At least
half was used in this country you
say, at first glance, W: auc!: IS mot
the fact. 4,742,735 bales were cx-
ported, and of the remainder the
spinners used 2,2G7, ,OS0 bales in this
country. This left on hand 5G,364
bales of this immense crop, the
largest ever raised but lSS9's crop
will exceed these figures and will
also realize ten cents per pound is
the prediction. The Northern mills
used l,7S9,4S5 bales and the South
ern mills .IS3,G03. In 1SS7-'SS, cot.
ton cloth and fabrics realized 3.G4,
while in 1SSS-'S9 it reached $50 per
100 yards, which is considered good
increase. The Scaports that took
these millions of bales Of cotton are
as follows: New Orleans, 2G.13; ;
Norfolk, 1898; Savannah, 1888 ;
Galveston, $50; Charleston, $50;
while all the Northern ports, incud-
ing New York anG Boston, took but
9.07. From September, 1887, to Sep
tcmber, 1888, 81 ,279 packages Of dry
goods were sent to China, while in
lSSS-'S9 this was incrcasrd to 30
7lo, clearly showing the possibilities
of this great product.
conclusion 1t may be OF interest to
know what the wages arc Of The pick
ers. 80 to IS cents per day is the mu-
niiicicnt reward, but the blacks are
contcntcd and thrive and multiply at Il
remarkable rate. The present popula
ton Of South Carolina is composed of
39l, ,l05 whites and Goa 1872 blacks,
by the census Of 1880, and this ratio
has probably been incrcasd in favor
OF the black race. have referred
to South Carolina because live in
it, but the facts and figures about
the cotton crop refer to the entire
South OF course. The cotton is be-
ing picked now and will continue to
be until December. The frost does
not harm it and the planter prefers
cold nights and warm days, but
breads hard rainstorm, us a storm
of two or three days duration at
this season would injurc it fully ten
per cent. In my next article | will
give you some surprising facts about
the School question in the South and
the Blair bill as it is regarded here.
