ANOTHER CorroN rICEING MACHINE -

in Atlanta which seems to do the work well.
1t passed over the rows taking ont the cotton
and leaving the hollis AMI leaves uninj urcd.
The machine weighs about n thousand
pounds and is drawn by two mules.
We have heard of SO many successful
machines for picking cotton that We begin to
think it is about time few OF them were
travcrSing the cotton fields of Union. The
Atlanta machine. it is claimed can do the
picking of - hands, the Mason claimed the
same, AMI n Northern machine claimed 10 do
better than all of them. We do not pretend
to say that such machine is beyond the
inventive genius of mon, hW. no 10 ,nink
when the Farmers purchase and use them
the pickcrS will have impaired to them two
Of the five human senses, l. e., seeing and
feeling. We would rather see one salts
tactorily at work Oh our friends Joe and
kclton Wheels farms. than hear tell Of one
doing the work we'll, at n big or little en-
position. We PIT the cotton into the gin,
AMI the saws and brush separate the lint
from the s'cd. bit in picking cotton the mn-
chine will have Ia ga II the cotton bolls,
wherever they my he on the stllk, and pick
the lint AMI sccis from the pods.

This should be thecase IA Onion county,
and We hope the present Board Of comm's-

bone strong enough to call for o levy that
will pace this County in as sound and salts
f,ctory financial condition as that Of New

Heretofore, while the people were COM
plnining OF high taxes, our representatives
in the Legislature AMI the County Commis-
sioners have been afraid to adopt the only
measure that would rednce the taxes-thai
Of levying tax, .for one year, sufficient to
wipe out NIL "past indcbtcd cdncss" and leave
money in the Treasury to pay promptly oil
demands as they fell due, which would re-
duce the County expenses from 20 to rs pei

We are confident TINT at least three-fourths
Of the voters Of the County would endorse
such tax if il WAS put TO them to vote Oh

To. day claim against the county could
net be sold for more than 76 cents on The

Round Dining Tables,

Round tables are becoming more and
more established in fashionable favor
as the proper shape for the dinner
board. For some time the small, round
ones have been used at supper parties,
and now the English social season Is
emphasizing the use of the dinner size.
1t is an old fashion revived, and artistic
dinner-givers will welcome It. A table
can be so prettily laid when all the COW
ers radiate from a common center. The
circular boards are decidedly more so
ciable, too. Just as changing a COM
pany from one room to anctheT disturbs
and chills social warmth. SO turning
corner at the table splits the unanimity
of the circle, divides the diners into
groups, and the amalgamation OF talk
is prevented. The change, too, will be
a welcome one to frequent dinnsr-
givers, who of late find their ingenuity
taxed to devise novel floral arrange
mentS. A round table at once demands
quite different laying" from IN sx-
tension board.-N. Y. Times.
