Good Advice.
The Easley Democrat says:
''Don't plant more than IL acres
to the horse this year in cotton,
and plant at least 20 acres in corn /;
md also raise at least two litters
of pigs of the finest breed of hogs

Snow Years.

speaking of the big SHOWS of this
winter, told us on Monday, that in
1850 the snow fell 1S
inches deep on a level, and that
year was an extraordinarily good
crop year. "Snow years are good
years." seems to be a tradition of
long standing among farmers and
one which has a broad basis of
truth for it's underpining.

Two Kinds of Sauce.
Mr.. Jas. B. Adams, who lives
three miles the other side of Choty,
and has to pass through that cele-
brated region coming to and going
rom orr town. says that Che Cho.
Farians, each and every one of
them, are preparing to go into the
hands of a receiver. Not that they
are strapped, or want to evade, or
avoid the payment of their debts,
but they want to test Judge Simon
TONS decision in the railroad cases.
They wish to see if Simonton will
give them the same sauce he gave
TO the South. Carolina Railroad, a
sauce which keeps that road from
paying it's State and county taxes.
