CoKEsDURY, S. c., July 80, 1895.
Four weeks ago Mr.. A. e. Norris, the
we'll known insurance man from Cokes-
bury, 8. C., after ap illness of five months,
left his sick bed and went to Chester, 8. c i,
to receive treatment at the Hospital of DR..
S M. Devaga, of that city. After e1ami-
nation that skillful surgeon found that
bis system was thoroughly septic. It was
determined that two dangerous and delicate
operations were the only means for relief,
and these were most skillfully performed,
and have proven wonderfully successful.
Mr. Norris returned home last Friday, the
Goth ult., much improved in every way,
and says he feels like new man. lie
gives glowing accounts Of his visit to
Chester, and of the magnificent treatment
he received at the Devaga Hospital.
For several days after the operations
recovery seemed almost impossible, but
the able and dexterious manner in which
DR.. Devaga treated the complicated dis
ease, and the care and constant attention
be daily administered soon proved most
effective and for two weeks past Mr.. Nor
ris has been improving rapidly, and il
now returned to his family and work in
good health and feeling, he says, better
than be has in ten years. There are scoi es
of friends all over the State who will re-

The saluda baptist Association.

Mr. EDITOR: This organization held
its annual session with the Meals Creek
Church, beginning Tuesday, July Both.
and lasted three days. 1t was probably
the largest attended meeting the Associa-
ton has ever held. We have heard the
crowd variously estimated at from three
to FIVE thousand persons on Wednesday:
The people OF that community opened
their homes and hearts, and we have never
seen such ample provision of both food
and water, for man and beast, as was there.
This was not confined to members OF that
church only; but members OF other
churches, other denominations, and some
who are not church mem bers at all, COM
bined to make the stay Of all who attended
pleasant, which they did. We wish we
could attend an Association of this kind
at Meals Greek every year.

Health of the City of Anderson
OFFICE OF BOARD OF HEALTH,

ANDERSON, .. ", aug. q, 1870.
Mr.. Editor: In view of the many re-
ports in reference to the health of the city
of Anderson at the present time, and as
such reports cannot be sustained by care
ful investigation, ask that you, as it is a
matter of public interest, allow me through
the medium of your paper to CO. = vet any
reports in variance to what is her. stated.
Each ply sician In the city, at meeting
held by the Board OF Health, on the 9Th
inst has made written report, as request
ed by the B Board, and we find that there is
now ten cases of malarial fever and two
cases of typhoid fever, none of which are
of malignant type.
Reports had for month July from tho
undertakers of the city are as follows, and
by examining reports of physicians we find
death to have been caused by diseases ap-
pended to each
l-Colored-Heart and Kidney.
1-Colored-Inhammation bowels.
1-White-
1-White-Typkoid fever.
1-White-Child Commissions.
So, with population of at least 5000
any ordinary observer can see that the per
centage of death as compared with popula-
tion is very small, and that we are not as
badly afflicted as some would probably
have US be.
These fevers as spoken of are not con
fined to. the city, but the surrounding
country has its share. Our city, dare
say, is in as good sanitary condition as
anv city or town its size in the State.
Hoping the above may set aside any
fears entertained by any visitors or any
one else, Yours.
J. o. WILH1TE, M. D.,
Secretary Board Health,
City of Anderson.

Mellette dispatch, 2l: The irrigated

Mellette dispatch. u: The irrigated
wheat on III. F. Hunters farm averaged
thirty-four bushels per acre, weighed
sixty-two pounds to the bushel and
graded mo. l hard" The field was irri.
gated only once June l5-when it was
given about six inches of swater. An
adjoining field which was not irrigated,
and which was treated the same in every
respect only went sixteen bushels per
acre-less than half. Sixteen bushels is
an exceedingly heavy yield for unirri-
gated wheat but few fields are going
twelve bushels to the acre in this
vicinity. Both fields were planted to
fife and u bushel was drilled to the
acre. Experiments here show that IA
bushe and Il peck should be sown on
irrigated ground, when will be done
next year. The irrigated wheat stood
over five feet in height while the other
was about two and one a half. The irri-
gated wheat was not affected by hot
winds as the moisture tempers the at
mosphere ever the field. On the John
A. Salzer seed company's plat the
following varieties of wheat were tested:
April, red spring, White Chatf, Assini-
bcia Fife and Marvel. OF these Red
Spring wheat and Asiniboia Fife we're
the best, the latter very much the best
