izati7n composed Of some Of the most pros
porous and intelligent farmers of the state,

the initiative in an enterprise that ought
already to have been started Ia ScrIveu.
They suggest an agricultural fair to be
held at SyIvania at " hich shall be displayed
the products of the soil together with the
handiwork of our wives and daughters. 1t
is believed that our farmers will at once
take up the idea aid that we
will, before long, begin 10 make
preparations for county fair that
will be surpassed by nos other in Georgia.
1t would be Of great advantage for US in
attracting others TO our county, ~ stimust~
ing our farmers to vie with each other in
their crops and in bringing them together in
a social way. Scriven county can boast Of
farmers as prosperous as any in the south
and lands that will produce as abundantly
as the famed Mississippi bottoms. And
as for our wives and daughters aud sweet
hesrts-a trip through the county would
convince any one that their preserves, their
jellies and their wines would grace the
table of a king. So, keep your eye on

THE DwARFIsH RACE IN SPAIN.
Enauos With Red Wool for Hair and
Savage Ways.

Savage Ways.
r. G. Huliburton, in London Nature.
In consequence Of evidence that had OBJ
tanned as to the existence Of a dwarf race in
Spain, l wrote to Mr.. MCPHERSON, our con-
sui at Barcelona, and inclose his reply.
There have long been rumOrs Of survtvals
Of a dwarf or a prehistoric race existing in
parts Of Spain, but careful inquiries at
Madrid failed to supply any definite in
formation on the ject. Last summer, on
reading over an old number of KosmOS
Paris, 1881, found brief paragraph re-
ferring to pigmy race having been found
in the province of Corona, Spain, who had
slightly Mongolian eyes, yellow, broad,
square faces, hight from l. 10 meters to l. Is
meters, and red hair.
An Austrian gentleman recently told me
he had seen, in the market place in Sals-
manca, come very under-sized peasants.
with broad faces and mahogany -colored
woody hair.
You will see that these accounts all agree
substantially, and that these dwarfs and
those of Africa are precisely similar
have got deal uf information from an
old Spanish woman who belongs to half
breed nano family, and who says that there
are in such families frequently nanos Tor
"enanos'0 who have red tufts OF wool and
are as small es ordinary small boys. But
these tufts of wool are peculiarly character
istic Of dwarf races nearly everywhere.
shall write more fully as TO my inqui-
ries among hslf-treed nanos, but they are
Of very secondary interest now that we
can find pure racial nanos within easy
reach.
L. is most fortunate that they live in the
valley Of Ribas and the Col de Tosas, with
in little more than half days journey
from Toulouse. Some health seekers or
fOnriatq in tho South pf Erappa NAV mar.
haps feel inclined to pay a visit to these lit.
