Information to Wheat Growers.

Mr. Lem Wise, a progressive
farmer of No. 8 Township has an
experience in growing wheat and
improving land which is worth
recording. Three years ago he
roWcd 6 | , acres ordinary land
in wheat following the wheat with
peas. He cut the peas, which
were sown broadcast. He kept it
up three years. The first made
80 bushels of wheat; the next 81
l~2 bushels; the next this year,
between - and so bushels. He
did not use any fertilizers-not
even cotton seed. The sowing of
the peas broadcast was all that he
did to increase the productivcness
% his land. He kept no account
OF his pea vine hay the first two
years, but the last year his hay
brought him over SIS. 1t seems
to lis that thi, experience should
put farmers to thinking. New

Curing Pea Vines.

The following letter to Solicitor
Henry on the best method of cur
ing pea vine hay is taken from
The Chester Lantern, and is wei
worth saving by our farmers
Mr.. j X Henry, Chester, S. =.
DEAR SIR: My process for
curing pea vine hay is as follows ::
Let the peas pc sown when they
may, they should be allowed to
yellow up, say two or three feet
from the ground, owing to kind
of peas, as some do not vine so
long as others. Let some of the
pods get ripe. then begin now
ing in the morning when the dew
has dried off At noon the next
day, if there has been no rain on
them, | then begin raking, haul.
ing and packing them in rail pens,
built in fields, barn lot, or whcr-
ever you choose, rails ten feet or
longer il you like, build as high
as you wish. put from seven to
ten two horse loads to Il pen. 49,
Tramp them down as you put
them in as tight as they can he
by a heavyweight man. Tramp
them very tight around the edges.
Then top them up with hay or
straw, letting it extend out over
the rails so as to prevent any leak.
ing whatever from the top.
In from three to five days YOU
will find the peas will be very hot.
50 hot they will smoke equal to
volcano and become very wet with
sweat. At this stage many per
sons would be tempted to throw
down their pens to air their hay,
but this is just the thing that
should not be done, as letting the
air to them spoils them. just let
them smoke: no danger of spon>
taneous combustion, or at least it
has never taken place with me in
my three years experience. Last
year | packed my barn full with
equal results to that of the rall
pen. BE sure to put them up
without dew or rain on them and
cover so there would be no leak
age. This is my process and has
been for three years and | am
now feeding some of the finest hay
/ ever saw.
Some of our people say cut peas
in the new or light of the moon
and they will keep better.
A, Now, as to following peas with
wheat, that is the very best thing
to do to grow wheat. Plant your |
peas in time for them to mature.
take them of for hay, turn your |
land shallow, owing to soil, red |

Blount, of Mcintosh county,
wired Governor Gambler today
for more soldiers for the riot at
Darieu. He also asked for more
carbines and ammunition.
The carbincs were sent by eX
press, and the ammunition will 90
by special messenger this after
noon. Col Lawton has been
placed in command of the situa
ton.
CAUSE OF TROUBLE.
The trouble was begun by the
arrest of Henry DcIagel, who was
charged with committing an as
sault on white woman. An at
tempt was made to carry him to
the Savannah Jail for safe keeping
when his sons resisted. They
gathered a mob and the militia
was called upon to disperse them.
Deputies Townsend and Hopkins
on Thursday night attempted to
arrest John Delagel, when he
killed Townsend and wounded
Hopkins. The negroes since that
time have been securing reinforce
ments from all parts of Mcintosh
and Liberty counties.
STILL MORE TROOPS.
Atlanta, Ga, Aug 26.-It is
stated here that one thousand me-
groes are under arms in Mcintosh
county. The Fourth regiment
has been ordered under arms.
MAY ATTACK TONIGHT.
Darien, Aug 26-The negroes
are in and around the Delagel
cabin and are surrounded by
about $50 of their race. The
special trains did not leave for the
swamps this morning as was ex-
pected. One train, however, was
dispatched to Sapelo bridge,
where n crowd of negroes had as
sembled and threatened to burn
the bridge and the town. The
cour; house has been pressed into
service as barracks.
At l O'Clock it is reported that
the negroes, hearing of the de-
parture of the cavalry, have
Ct h cred and will march into
Darien tonight, Col Lawton and
Capt Grayson are confident and
expect the arrival of the militia
to cause scattering of the ne
groes, and that the arrest of the
negroes will be an easy matter.

OF the happiest of the gray-haired
women who extended congratulations.
She was one of the strongest women
in the home physically, until last Win

grip. Since that time she had been UNI
able to leave her room because of
weakness, except on occasions when
she believed her presence was desired.
Miss Farnum was a native of Barre.

eight children to pass away. Her father
was a resident of Uxbridge for many
years, and her mother was born in
Dudley, giving the Farnum family
many relatives in the county. She has
one relative in this city, F. w. South
wick a granddaughter.
Her recollection of Worcester in ITS
early days was bright, and she often
told of seeing Gen. Lafayette, Daniel
Webster. Louis Kossuth, William
Thackeray, Charles Dickens and other
celebrities. The building of the first
railroad was always a matter fresh in
Miss Farnum's memory.
