GENERAL IMPROVEMENT
Noted in Different Crops Throughout
The State.

Noted in Different Crops Throughout
The State.
Director Bauer's report for week end
ing Aug. 3, says there appears to have
been a general improvement in CROP
conditions in South Carolina during
the past week and staple as we'll as the
minor crops are exceedingly fine ovel
the western, the north central, and the
northeastern counties, and over the
greater portion of the remainder of the
State. The exceptions are that over
portions of Oconee, Pickens, Laurens,
Union and Spsrtanburg counties more
rain is needed, while in portions OF
Richland, Bamberg, Kershaw, Sumter,
Darlington, Orangeburg and Berkely
there has been an excess of rain to the
injury of crops especially corn and cot
ton.
Laying by of the principal field crops
is nearing completion, and was favored
by the hot dry weather that prevailed
during the greater part of the week.
Old corn is maturing rapidly over
the eastern portions of the State, where
fodder pulling is now quite general.
This portion of the corn crop varies IN
condition with the locality and the soil
and is not likely to be full crop. Late
corn continues promising but neeas
several more good seasons to Keep II
up to present conditions and to insure
the heavy yield that now seems llkely.
Corn is firing" on sandy lands In
Kershaw, BERKELEY and Aiken.
Some bottom-land corn injured early
in the week by high winds, and over
flowed streams in the central counties.
however, comparatively small areas
were affected.
Cotton continues to fruit we'll and to
shed comparatively little. A number
of correspondents report this crop un-
usually fine and more heavily fruited
than is usual at this season. There
were fewer reports this week than last,
of rust, excessive shedding and honey
dew," although these damaging condi-
tions are still widely prevalent, espe-
cially in sections where there
has been an excess OF rain.
Much grass was killed, and lay
ing by made rapid advance. There
are reports of the plant being small but
we'll fruited, and others of the plant
growing too much to weed" at the ex-
pense OF taking on fruit.
Bolls are opening rapidly over the
southeastern counties. Excessive rains
injured cotton in portions of Berkeley
and Darlington, while in Spartanburg
and limited areas elsewhere more rain
is needed. In places the plant has turn
ed yellow and stopped growing. Sea
Island cotton continues to put on fruit
and was greatly benefited by the abun.
dant sunshine of the latter portion OF
the week. -.
The first bale of new cotton for this
season, was shipped from Allendale,
Barnwell county, on August End. In
1895. 5 bales were marketed on July
2S-29th, in 1895 the first on August Goth,
in 1894 the first on August15. Tobacco

pletion, quality good. Curing up fine

the exception of limited localities where

who lives near Pinewood, and who
works for Conductor J. G. McClening-
ham on the log train which plies be-
tween that place and Pinewood, has
been suffering intense agony for about
six weeks with what seemed to be bons

said it was neither felon nor rising,
but seemed to be mash or possibly
splinter had been. run into the finger
ano told Durant to put a poultice on the
finger, which he did, but found no re-
lief. On Tuesday morning Durant's
finger panied him unusually, and upon
taking the poultice off he was horrified
to see the head of worm sticking out
of his finger. He took his knife and
pulled the worm out and carried it to
Capt, McCleningham. 1t looked ex-
actly like wood sawyer and about the
size of the average worm of that kind.
Durant pulled another worm OF the
same kind from his finger and since
then his finger has not panied him near
so much, and to all appearances IS get
ting we'll.
Durant is very much worried about
his hand and thinks he has been
shoodooed. He has lost about %
pounds of flesh and has not worked for
six weeks.

White the Prevailing Color.

White is very much worn this sesG'
son, andwhite gowns of almost any ma
terial, if properly made, are sure to be
a success. White grenadines appear
among the dressy costumes at the
fashionable summer hotels. One un-
usual model has three graduated
hounces of white silk on the skirt.
The bottom one, gathered over an
other of white silk, is the widest, and
each one is finished with a narrow frill
of white glace silk, which is in turn
edged with a tiny ruffle of white chf'
fon. Another pretty gown is OF white
gauze over rose glace silk. Around
the hips few inches below the waist
is one row of cream lace insertion, a
little distance apart, run to the bot
tom of the skirt, both front and back.
The bodice Of gauze is tucked cross
wise; insertion outlines a square at
the neck, from which vertical bands OF
insertion extend to the waist.

Sheriff Jordan had his hands full last
week Strengthening ont sheep trade
for a stock of merchandise in Iowa. The
parties to the trade were ". A. Hoobler,
of this county and j. B. Moore, Of Shell
don, Iowa.
Hoobler went to Sheldon about SIX
weeks ego and made the trade for a
stock OF shoes. The stock inyoiced about
$7CS0 IIoobler was to trade ia SEQ
sheep, two quarter sections of laud and
give mortgage on the stock for $1,000.
When it came to show down hoo obler's
wife would not sign the deed 10 the land.
ohjectipg to u mortgage being placed on
the stock. BY way Of compromise
Moore took out ahout S1.S00 worth Of the
stock to cffse: the land aad Hoobler
gave clear bill of sale OF tho sheep, tho
chattle mortgage for $1,000 OIL stock and
took possession.
Last week Moore and his father-in-law,
J. S. Wheeler, OF Mason City, came out
after the sheep. They drove down to
Hoobler's and proceeded to round up the
herd. To their surprise out came Hoob
ler with his collie dog and refused to
let them have them. Mrs. Hoobler
joined in and for time there was some
lively hustliDg for the possession Of the
flock. In the melee Hoobler threw
Moore onto the ground and tried to pun
mel him, but the old gentleman, Wheeler,
pulled him off and finally both returned
town and left Hoobler and his wife in
possession Of the field. Hoobler Gains,
as we understand it, that tho stock OF
goods was not as represented and came
out to head Moore off from obtaining The
sheep. Moore got possession Of the
sheep by replevin and brought the
flock into town, but found The bunch 242
short. Then lie ran up against a snae
in the way of two mortgages on the
flock for S959.7O and taxes TO the amount
OF nearly $50 more. After two or three
days wrangling Moore rail CT al
claims against the sheep and got posses
sion Of them.

Yes. each year the papers of the state
devote considerable space to the date
when 1t is lawful to kill prairie chickens.
and do good deal Of hellyachipg on
the subject generally. But when the
legislature is in session and the oppor-
tunity offered for the press to accom-
pl;sh something in the way of better
protection for our rapidly diminishing
game, these same newspapers are as
silent as tomb-too confounded busy
grinding their own or some other poll
tlciaD's AK to give tinker's dam for
matters of real Importance to the whole
state. Any newspaper that knows
enough to pound sand into rat hole
ought to be familiar with the fact that
tho only states which have even partial
game protection are those with salaried
game and fish Wardens and that South
Dakota is alone among the western
states without state game warden and
deputies, yet when a measure Of this ma
ture was mentioned at Pierre last winter
from tho Republican press went upa
howl about Populists extravaganza in
creating new offices. 1t will be the
same next time, AMI the next undoubt-
edly. no matter which party happens to
be in control OF legislation, ana ne
change for the better Can be hoped for
in our game lawS and other matters un-
til the people Of Sonth Dakota get less
politics and moro sense. The fact that
Colorado, Montana, Wyoming, Kansas,
Minnesota. Illinois and other states
around us are spending thousands of
dollars annually protecting the fish and
game. valuable food products that they
are. cuts no figure with tho average solon
at Pierre, surfelted with q wisdom that
makes his brain ache, and backed up hy
a press that lives upon the pestilent
