THE PROJECTED RAILROAD.

There is much talk about the
building Of a railroad from Flor
ence to Georgetown in the near
future, and from what We can
hear in a general way there is
more than mere talk in the rumor.
Such a road, on an air line, wonld
seem 10 strike about Docks, RHEIMS,
Black Mingo and Rollins, cutting
off a triangular section in the
North eastern part of this county.
We are glad to herr this talk of
an additional railroad in the coun.
ty. We are in for anything in the
way of progress that can be Of
benefit to our people, and we be-
lieve this railroad would be ben
eft.
1t seems 10 us, however, that
the proper line for the road would
be from Cades to Georgetown. BY
this route, about twice as much Of
the county would derive advantage
from it, and the cost of grading
would be much less, as the old
road bed might be used. If he road
is built, however, We will not
quarrel over the route. Either
way would be a great help to
people who have never enjoyed
the conveniences of railroad.
1t is only a question of time
when this road will be constructed
and we hope the time is near at
hand.

TRUCK GROWING.

AS the time approaches when
the old yearls drawing to close
and the advent of another seed
time is near at hand, the mind Of
the farmer naturally turns towards
the question of what can be most
profitably produced on his lands.
A few years ago a good many OF
our farmers turned their attention
toward tobacco culture. and ii was
thought that at last there was an
avenue Of escape from the thral-
dom of King Cotton. Experience
has demonstrated the fact tina,
only a certain class OF our lands
will produce tobacco profitaLIy;
and although many farmers have
grown it successfully, others, on
account of unsuitable soil, improp-
er curing or mismanagemenl in
some way, have become discour-
aged and are more devoted
slaves of cotton than ever.
No argument is needed TO con-
vince the farmer that he who sticks
to cotton exclusively will 90 from
bad to worse.
Now the problem is, what can
be profitably raised in this county;
and its solution, We think, lies in
the growing Of fruit and vegetables
for market. There is scarcely a
foot Of arabic land in the county
that will not, with proper atten-
ton, make a lair yield of vegelab
les. Small fruits flourish in a
soil and climate the finest in the
world, many growing wild in the
woods and fields. Only a few
acres will produce an abundance,
and The expense invol, el is much
less than that required in raising
cotton.
Many Of our people have recog-
nized the advantage oftruck- grow
ing over cotton farming, and have
already gone into that business.
By that means hundreds of dol
lars were brought into the county
last year, and at time, too, when
the average cotton farmer, having
spent all Of his money on his half
grown crop, coulj scarcely raise
