e. A. Russell is building large barn
for the storing Of provender and tho shell
| tar Of stock, vehicles and tools. The
Yankee when be removes to a new home,
on the farna, builds barn the first thing,
iftheie Is not one already built. No man
can succeed on the farm without e good
barn and stables. Felix Reggs is the con-
tractor for the rev barn, assisted BY his
brother, Hamilton Boggs. like their
prototype, James Hall, they push their
work fton the beginning to the end. We
predict for our young friends most sue.
cessful career as carpantsrs. They are
prompt energetic ahd competent.

After completing large and commodlous
dwelling, he hos Since turned hss atten-
tion to The building OF good tenant.houses
for his renters, and this summer has put
np q new cotton house and gin near bis
house, where be can more easily supsrvie
all the machinery connected With hist
class GIN, Doubtless he will be hbsrally
patronised, and he now proposes to attach
TO his gin cottoh seed oil mill, which
would be source of profit to himself, and
a convenience to the neighborhod. It is
\ still an open question with farmers as to
whether the raw cotton seed, used as
fertilizer or the cotton seed meal, is the
best. It would be bad policy for the far
mers to sell off tho farm this valuable fer
tiliser without ali equivalent iii theluse Of
cotton seed meal. By patient expert
ment and investigation, all these ques-
tions are fastening to proper solution,
and the oil mill will be an efficient instru-
mentality ia solving the problem.
Rev. r. C. Lyon, of the Methodist
Church, has recently closed series of
tent meetings at tire different Churches in
his Circuit with marked success. Ono
hundred and twsnty additions TO the
membership of those Churches have been
the tangible resui.s, with much benefit to
the spiritual growth of Gods children in
these several Churc.. ss. Whatever may
| be thought of the extreme views of some
of the Holiness men, as to living without
sin, yet We must concede that great spir-
itual benefit has been achieved at these
| tent meetings. We have sometimes
thought that this was one of the means of
reaching the outlying masses of people,
hence the remarkable effects of such meet
| lings. That denomination OF Christians
that soonest an beet reaches that class Of
people, will soonest wear the palm of
greatest gains for the Master.
The hum Of the cotton gin is being
heard on all sides. The toll has been re-.
duced to the twentieth If the gihner hauls,
or the twenty-fifth If the producer hauls
his own cotton In the South the cotton
| picking season is the gala season with the
farmers. especially the white children and
the little darkies. They seem to rejoice
in the handling of the feecy staple.
The Alliance seems to be growing in
favor with the farmers every day. This
organisation seems to be adapted to the
necessities of the farmer in every aspect of
the case. By combination the farmers
have learned they can not only protect
themselves against extortion, but they
hope to be able, in the near future, to fix
q reasonable price upon their products,
and to obtain 1t. This is practical, COM
mon sense end. business like.
