Corn Planting.

1t would be a great thing for
South Carolina If the farmers
would resolve to raise the biggest
corn crop ever housed in the
State, in rounding out the closing
year of the nineteenth century
There is every incentive for them
to make such resolve and pu'
it into practice. Taking the farms
altogether, and there was probs
bly, never greater scarcity of
corn in the spring than at the
present time. Fewer farmers have
surplus than was ever known,
and very many of them are buy-
ing corn at high prices. The cribs
are empty, and the stock has been
stinted during the winter months
in many localities. Corn that is
bought from the neighborhood
even is not equal to corn raised
on the farm where the feeding is
done, for somehow there ia q dis
position to dole it out stingily.
while corn brought from the
northwest with heavy freight
tariff on it can never take the
place Of home raised corn. Every
farmer who has ever tried buy
ing corn will acknowledge that
raising his own stock feed every
year far surpasses the other plan,
and if there was naught in it ex
cept the advantage Of and indie.
pendent feeling, the presence of
full corn cribs on farm ought to
rejoice the soul of it's owner.
Corn will be scarce and high for
year to come, and the prudent
man will meet the proba BILE
necessities of his own household
and those of the dumb creatures
around him by planting corn
more largely than ever before.
One thing is certain, whic', ia thaG,
a surplus Of corn, wheat, oats asid
hay on any farm will proveA "a

A Monument to the Catawba In
dians to be Erected by Capt.
$. Il. White.

Referring to the purpose of
Capt. s. E. White to erect at Fort
Mill u monument to commemmo-
rate the Uatawba Indians who
served in the Confederate war,
The State Gays:
Up in York county is the reser.
vation of the last of the once
powerful tribe of Catawba Indi-
ans. When the civil war came on
the Cata W bas stood to the white
people of the south and some of
the braves went into the Confed
crate army and did splendid SER
vice as scouts. The Cataw bas
have never received any reward
and there are indeed butfew who
knew that any of them ever
served the Confederacy. 1t has
now been determined to com
memorate their friendship and
deeds, and, as usual Capt. White
is behind the movement which has
already brought forth its fruit.
Here is what the Fort Mill
Times says of the matter:
LII Fort Mill's historic park
much of virtue and patriotism
has already been cummemorated
by enduring marble. But still an
other monument is to be erected
therein. Capt. S. r. White and
MIR. j. NJ. Spratt, appreciative and
enterprising citizens, have deter
mined to commemorate the the
faithful and lasting friendship of
the Catawba Indlans toward the
white people of this county. The
contract for the erection of the
monument has been awarded
Chester sculptor, and the ceremo-
ny of unveiling it will probably
take place in connection with the
annual memorial exercises of the
local camp of Confederate veter-
ans IN May. The monument will
be erected on suitable elevations,
just to the rear of the Confeder-
ate soldiers monument, will be
about 10 feet In height and sur
mounted by figure of an Indian
with drawn bow and arrow.
On one side of the die will be
represented in relief a buffalo in
his independence on the diverse
side II representation of primitive
life in the forests; and on the
other two sides inscriptions com
memorative of the Catawbans
heroism and good faith.
The motive which prompts the
erection of this monument will
be appreciated by all the white
citizens of our county, as well as
by the remnant of a once power
full tribe Of red men. who live
about eight miles southwest OF
Fort Mill on the west bank OF
Catawba river. 1t is hoped that
large number of both white and
red men will he present at the
nnveiling Of the monument.

fostered belief among the ex-
Confederates that a general fed
Grafton of these camps would
broaden their cherished purposes
so as to include the dissemination
of Southern literature and his
torical truth.
The distinguishing feature of
this reunion will be that, while
the social functions will be on an
elaborate scale, the men who
shouldered the muskets or
manned the guns will be the
guests to be looked after. The
attendance, predicted on that Of

Among these will be the most
prominent men of the South
