Correspondence of the Democratic Advocate
FLoREsvILLE, WILSON Co., Sept. %.
We are now in the midst of the cotton har-
vesting and marketing season. Near fifty
bales-about 500 pounds per bale-are being
ginned here daily. The crop will be light
owing TO the drought in August We only
got stingy b-inch rain fall during that blaz-
ing clear month, and the temperature pranced
around from 1902 to 1862 during many hours
Of nearly every day of said month. We en-
dure such temperature with but little discom-
fort. As the summer sun sets, the tempera
ture soon falls 200 to 800 aud breeze far
into the night makes sleeping delightful.
The cotton seed oil mill here is turning out
700 to 500 gallons of oil every "a hours, run
ming day and night. The owners are rectity
ing part of their oil for culinary purposes.
Many prefer it to lard and is much cheaper.
Pure, sweet, clean, digestible, vegetable oil;
ugh drive that burned hog out of the lard
can.
Our Mexican population held rousing
celebration here ON the 10th instant, the an
niversary of their severance from Spanish
sovereignty.
Within sight and easy cannon shot of our
court house stands the remains of Spanish
rock church erected over 200 years ago by
that strange nation of pious priests and per
severing explorers. Not another landmark
in this locality antedating this century.
BY the way, it occurs to a lot ofus down here
that our Uncle Samuel is stretching the
American eagle awfully. But perhaps Em
peror William wants herd of Philippine ne
groes for postmasters in South Carolina. Ii
he does, giving twenty million dollars for a
little shooting match over there might be CON
sidered cheap by some people.
During the season, some 90 or 90 ear loads
of watermelons-big fat ones, weighing so To
20 pounds-were raised aud shipped from tins
market; but that enterprise was strang!ed IN
its infancy by the heavy freight charges,
some shipments being au actual loss.
A broom factory has lately been added to
the enterprises of our town.
The weather this month has been d,vgrsl
fed and very pleasant; temperature ranging
from Cos to 500. At this hour. 3 a. M, ~.

scription, that it is the most perfect pre-

prepares the way for baby's advent, giving

establishes such a condition of health that
nervousness, anxiety and morning sickness
are unknown With this condition comes
healthy flow of nourishment for the child,
which enables the mother to crafty the
fondest instinct of maternity.

Plans for the American naval exhibit al
the Paris Exposition next year are being
rapidly formulated by the officers selected
by Secretary Long to make the necessary
arrangements.
Lieut.. Homer G. Poundstone has d.
rect charge Of making the preparations
and will be in charge Of the exhibit at the
exposition. Lieutenant Commander Baker
who has been named as an aide to Com
missioner General Peck, will assist Lieu
tenant Poundstone.
It is the intention of Secretary Long to
send an exhibit to Paris which will be- IN
every way representative and credit to
this Government. The present plans in
clude the sending of many exhibits repre-
sentative of Americas prowess on the sea
and typical of her present progress in the
science of naval architecture.
Lieutenant Poundstone has held several
conferences with Secretary Long, the
heads of the different bureaus, and Com
missioner General Peck, and has done
much toward securing a nucleus for the
exhibit. The plans have not as yet been
completed, but much satisfactory progress
has been made. 1t has been definitely de-
cided that the Bureau of Construction and
Repair will send as the principal share all
the models of war vessels Of the new navy
now exhibited in glass cases in the cor
ridors on the first and second floors Of the
War, State, and Navy Building. The mod
els to be sent will include those of the
battleship Alabama and class, the Texas
and class, the Charleston, the Maine, the
Boston, the Newark. the Wilmington and
class, the Wheeling and class, the Nash
VILE the Bancroft, the Katahdin, the
Vesuvius, the Petrol, the Yorktown, the
Annapolis, and the Miantonomoh.
The models cost from IS. 900 for the bat
tleship class down to about 81 900 for the
gunboat type. The greatest care will be
observed in packing them, and only experts
will be employed in making them ready
for transportation.
The boxes used In sending them to the
Omaha Exposition are now at the navy
yard and the models will be removed to
the yard in the glass cases and prepared
for shipment there.
In addition to- the models the bureau will
send model of the drydocks. that have
been built at League Island navy yard.
Cramps ship yards, Newport News, and the
Union Iron Works at San Francisco. Many
of the more interesting relics in the mu-
scum at the navy yard will also be sent.
The equipment Of the sailors and marines
during the various stages of the navy's de-
velopmept from its early days to the pres
ent time. will be shown and live tars rep
resentative of our present strength will be
on hand for the double purpose of watch
ing the collection and forming part Of the
exhibit themselves. y,.5r,
Orders have already been issued assign
ing the cruiser Prairie to the work OF
transporting the exhibit to French waters.
1t is probable that she will sail early next
spring.
Lieutenant Poundstone, who is now in
Chicago, is expected to return to the city
in a short time.
