A Circular Barn with sllo.

F. H. King, writing to Rural New
Yorker, says: The circular barn with a
silo in the center described in report
of the Wisconsin station) is a thorough
ly practical structure. There is no rea-
son why the frame of the silo itself Will
not last as long as any other part of the
frame of the barn. The silo is so plan
ned and built that the dampness of the
ensilage never reaches the studding,
which are practically and continuously
as dry as any other portion of the barn
frame. This being true there is no dan
ger from rotting There are now in
Wisconsin seven of these circular barns
and one at Mill Point, n Y, built aft
er the plan of the one referred to, each
with silo in the center.

MACEDONIA.
A Land Where the Moslems 'cNeed 1T AIr
and Generally Get 1t.


A Christian cannot hope to earn com
potency in Macedonia, whatever his trade
or profession-not If he wero as avaricious
as Harpagon and as abstemious as Timon
of Athens. If tho possession of wealth by
Christians were politically unobjectionabe
and it is considered to be anything but
this-it would be utterly impossible on
other grounds. The impecunious pashas,
begs, kaimakams and kadis, with whom
the country is crowded, are like the greedy
but insolvcnt Christian sectarian who,
when the head of his community placed a
bag of money before him-the proceeds OF
a charitable cOlleCtion-and said, "Broth.
er, take from this bag what you need, " re-
Piled Brother l sorely need it all
They are Unsuitable.
The land in Macedonia cannot. on tho
whole, be termed FERTILE but there are dis
tricts-the Pelagonian plain, for example
which need hardly to be scratched with
a pillow to cause them to bring forth album
dant harvests. Now, wherever there is a
strip of land which repays tilling thus
generously, it is invariably taken posses
sion of by Turks. The ways and means
are various and criminal, but the risks are
nil l could name several such desirable
properties which were suddenly rendered
so undesirable by the brigands that the
Christians were glad to part with them for
a nominal sum, so as to escape with their
bare lives. Thirty-five villages of the fer
tile Prespa district belong entirely to Mos
lens, while the Christians are either in
solvent ispolltshars, or farm laborers-
that is to say, serfs bound down to the
glebe. In the Pelagonian district four
fifths of the 1870 villages belong to the
true believers '-Contemporary Review.

MERE-MENTION.

When Mr.. Bryan signified his intention
to visit Toledo, Ohio, he was informed
that he could not get the use of hall in
which to speak. He was not worried by
the information but said he would speak
in the open air. '.'''''''The machinery OF
the engine that makes the ascent Of Pixies
Peak. broke last Sunday and the engine
almost fell down the mountain. The
engineer and fireman had jumped before
it was too late. and nobody was hurt. '''''
There is another story in circulation to
the effect that the European powers have
again told the sultan of Turkey that the
Armenian massacres must stop; but it is
not thought that there will be any serious
interference. ':'.... John r. Mclean will
probably be candidate for the United
States senate to succeed John Sher-
man. ''...""Mr. Bryan has determined to

Crimson Glover.

THIS annual variety of Glover, which
l. we have been selling so largely for
several years, is now acknowledged as the
farmers best friend.
FIRST-Because it will improve land
more cheaply and quickly than by any
other means.
Craze during the winter months when the
land would be idle and laying out, q
crop which can be cut for green food In
the early spring, or for hay in the late
spring and leave the ground improved and
in nice order for corn, and the land very
much improved.
THIRD-The nitrogen which the
plant absorbs from the air and stores in the
roots and plant is the dearest fertilizer to
buy, but obtained through this quick
growing plant at very small cost, 1t ID
ready in the soil to be assimilated by the
next crop.
FOURTH-It will grow well on sandy
soil any good soil is suitable to 1t. Should
he sown broadcast at the rate Of 15 pounds
per acre, anytime from the first of Au-
gust to the first Of November. Best to
sow early as can an cpMsnEg yi5gn{a GtnVER fsyTgs
plowed under is worth as much as thickly
spread barnyard manure"
We hope our farmers will give this Clo-
YER q trial and bring up York county's
worn out lands to high state of cultiva-
ton. The feed made will three times pay
the expense and your land Is improved:
We have the CRIMSON CLOVER seed
on hands, and hope to have a good de-
mand for it this season.
Yours to improve land,

STRAUSS SHOWS
WHICH way
The WIND IS BLOWING.

The "leaves are beginning to
turn,' and the broom sage is
ripening. 1t will be only a few
days more before the gentle
breezes will be coquetting with
the "broom straws," which to
an ordinarily intelligent observer
will indicate the direction in
which the wind is blowing.
1t is also only a very few days
before "My Grand Closing Out
Summer Slaughter Sale"' will
come to an end, and my great
stock of Fall and Winter Goods,
in fact the largest stock I ever
handled, will have commenced
coming in, consisting of the most
elaborate line of Ladies' Dress
Goods that I have ever handled,
besides mammoth stock of Mems
Clothing, Hats, Shoes, Shirts,
Collars and Cravats, and in fact
everything that you could ex-
pect to find in a great store like
mine.
Another thing that I would
like to impress upon your mind,
and that is that I ain not going
to follow, but LEAD COMPET-
ITORS. In fact am not going
to recognize competition at all.
I have bought, and am going to
buy more goods, for all of which
I pay the cash. These goods are
mine and I do not propose to
ask other merchants at what
price 1 shall sell them; but on
the contrary I shall give them
away if l see fit. Whose busi-
ness would it be?
If you want Towels of any,
kind, 60 see Strauss. He is
closing them out at great bar
gains.
Summer Dress Goods cut to

prices. I will not recognize COM

purchaser visit my store during

ROCK HILL HAPPENINGS.

Back From Europe-The Crops-Evans and
Earle-The Enquirer's Election News
Rock Hill Graded School.
Correspondence Of the Yorkville Enquirer.
ROCK HILL, August 3l.-Mr. George
White Witherspoon is home again after
trip to Europe. He not only enjoyed
his experience; but was much benefited
thereby.
The last annex of the Rock Hill buggy
company is showing up we'll. When this
is completed, the idea of the company is
to complete an average of from 10 to 10
buggies each day.
We are having, very probably, exactly
the same experience in crops that other
sections of our state now have, but 1t is
novel to see 30 much cotton in August. 1t
looks now, as if the entire crop would be
ready for market by October lst.
For month, the Sabbath school of the
First Presbyterian church has not met,
owing to the fear of diptheria. This has
abated and the school assembled yester-
day morning to prepare for work.
There is no doubt as to the feelings Of
most of our citizens in regard to the last
primary for the U. 8. senatorship. The
defeat of Evans is taken for sign that the
method of campaigning so successful Of
late years must be changed. There can
be no doubt that he was defeated by the
votes of his former supporters and who
would have supported him again had he
placed himself on high plane in the late
campaign. It is hoped that we will new
or have another such campaign, where
abuse is given instead Of argument, and
vociferation instead Of explanation.
1t seems that The EN- oUIRER is entitled
to the blue ribbon among the newspapers
as the best gatherer of election reports.
The result of the election in York county
was known fully the next morning after
the election, a result due to the efforts Of
The ENQUIRER, and one not attained
elsewhere in the state.
The next session of the Rock Hill
Graded school will begin Tuesday, Sep
tember Is. The term has been shortened
from 20 to So weeks. The following is the
teaching force: Messrs. E. w. Hall and
P. Hollis, Misses M. B. Lide, s. Fannie

granddaughter suffered for six months
with a wasting diarrhoea, due no doubt
to indigestion. For three Of the latter
months of illness she had the attention Of
physicians without receiving any benefit
from their treatment. On a Sunday after
noon got in my buggy and rode down
to Yorkville and got from you (Kuyken-
daD a bottle of your Anti-Ferment. We
commenced giving it to her Immediately.
In two days we saw change for the bet
ter. She continued to improve finely and
is now we'll. Anti-Ferment did it, and
one bottle cured her."

FUNNY TALK THIS.
What The Herald Has to Say About tn,
Electfon

What The Herald Has to Say About tn
Election.
Rock Hill Herald Saturday.
The result of the election in thi
county shows what harmful influence
the county division issue has had-no
in respect to the officials selected, but
the prejudice it has aroused unneces'
sarily and which we fear will be last
ing. For this unfortunate condition il
is believed here that few men al
Yorkville are responsible.
We understand there was great re-
ioicing there among the men who op'
pose Rock Hill and Eastern York when
the result was known. But, while we
lament the feelings of unfriendliness
toward our city and community, made
manifest by the result, we are not at
all dispirited or disheartened. At the
proper time that report which some of
the gentlemen Of the county tried to
extort from Mr.. Elder and that has
disturbed their peaceful dreams for
sometime, will be made public, and
we repeat now what We have had oc-
casion to say before, that it is no secret
here that we expect to organize a
county on the "eastern side" sometime
in the future. We think we know
some things we are sure the agitators
do not know, and when the proper
time comes for US 10 move, We shall do
80 confident we will succeed.
The election of an adverse legisla-
tive delegation cannot defeat our
plans-"the schemes of the conspira-
tors''-as we are amply protected by
the constitution, whose requirements
we know we must comply with beyond
cavil.
This precinct sustained Messrs. Ell
der and Edwards literally, not because
they were the chosen candidates of
Rock Hill and Eastern York, but be-
cause they were prosecuted most un-
righteously on our account, and since
they are the equals in intelligence and
character of any of the candidates for
the same offices, we would have been
ingrates not to have done 80. But we
did not draw the line there, for Rock
Hill especially gave Mr.. deLoach and
Mr.. Witherspoon each large vote, and
really the support the former received
here saved him from defeat. We are
glad of this and our people are glad,
because we esteem Mr.. deLoach as
worthy young man of ability. Did
Yorkville treat us as well? Let the
cold figures answer.
