Trees are felled by electricity in the
great forests of Galicia. For cutting
comparatively soft wood the tool is in
the form of an auger, which is mounted
on carriage, and is moved to and fro
and revolyed at the same time by a
small electric motor. AS the cut deep
ems, wedges are inserted TO prevent the
rift from closing, and when the tree is
nearly cut through an AK or hand saw
is used TO finish the work. In this way
trees are felled very rapidly and with
very little labor.

A Good FertlIIrer.

A very cheap and easy way to pre-.
pare bones 10 supply as fertilizer is by
the use of ashes. Break the bones as
small as possible. Then cover the bot
tom OF barrel or box with few inches
of ashes, then put in layer of bones,
and so on until the receptacle is filled.
The time required for the decomposi-
ton OF the bones depends upon the
strength of the ashes. the size of the
bones, and the amount OF moisture in
the mixture. The mixture should be
made quite damp by pouring water on
IL, but not enough water should be
used as TO cause II 70 drain. Hardwood
ashes which have not been exposed TO
the weather are best for reducing
bones.

and proper demands against the County, and
still haye a surplus on hand. This, we be-
lieve; is the first time In the history of the
County that the expenses have been kept
within the amount raised by the regular
levy. The retiring Commissioners. R. a..
Armstrong, w. A. Lanier and J. NJ. Major
have earned the we'll done of the people OF
Abbeville County, and we have no doubt a
grateful public will award them just and de-
served praise. The success In bringing the de-.
slrable result was largely due to their intelli-
gent and faithful Clerk Mr.. r. E. Cox. No
man has ever served the board and the peo
pie more faithfully or more efficiently than
he has done. Mr.. Cox. as Trial Justice, has
had much reason to study the laws Of his
country. Having a good judicial mind, and
q liking for the law he makes most excel
lent Trial Justice, and We would not be sur
prfsed II the people, after having found him
faithful In small things, should at some fu-
ture day call him up higher. The people will
yet require him TO serve them in higher
aud more lucrative position. His high Ill
tegrity will justify them In doing go.

2. That no county in this State should be al
lowed great number OF Senators than every
other county is allowed. We have seen The
statement in print that Charleston is the only
county In the United States which has two
Senators.
g. Instead OF cutting up the counties into
small sections, allow every county two Sena-
tors, and forbid "that any new coun-
ties shall not be formed or erected within the
Jurisdiction OF any other county; nor any
other county>be formed by the junction OF
two or more counties, or parts Of counties,
without the consenrof the people OF the coun-
ties concerned as we'll as OF the Leglslature;' -
that consent to be ascertained by popular
vote of all the people living in the counties
which 1t is proposed to mutilate. This is
substantially the provision Of the Constitu.
tion OF the United States in reference to the

with equal force to the formation OF new
counties In State. 1t is just and fair.
