COMMUNICATION TIC
FRIEND"

Your advice has been received and
are very thankful to receive it from
one who has had experience, or ct
least, one who has a husband. @.el
Why should a woman who is
married and not ashamed to mention
the fact that she has husband, ad-
wise girls against men because as
she says, they are faithless and un-
true9 &&&ta
If there is only one perfect man
in the world we wish to congratu-
late our friend for having him 90
her husband. If the Worthington

referred to we wish she would i'm
port for us some Lords of Crea-
ton" from tho same place her hus-
band came. %
If you would only request it our
dear friend, 1--WE would try and help
you think of something interesting
enough to keep your husband at
home evenings since, as you say
husbands do not care to spend their
evenings in conversation with their
wives, as before their marriage.
Perhaps, now 1.-The girls'' can give
the married women some advise as
to keeping your husband home
evenings. Perhaps if you would try,
talking about the same things you
did before your marriage he would
be more interested. Tell him how
much you love him, what pretty
black eyes he has, how happy you.
are when with him, how you would
do anything to please him, etc. I
think he would be much more in
terested in this than in being told
that you wish you never had mar
led such worthless fellow as he,
etc.
If, as you say, husbands instead
of staying home with you evenings
are holding the attention of some
other lady. are you curious as to
who your rival is? =
Well, dear friend in closing we
wish to thank you for your interest
in us, and, as to that couple you are.

THE HESSIAN FLY IN MINNIE.
sofa. METHODS OF PRE-
VENTION. -.

IL
VENTION. 49,.
This wheat pest is alarmingly on
the increase in the state. Its pres
ence in a field may be detected,
either before or after Cutting,
by the fact that some or many Of
the stalks are bent over above one
of the lower joints, their heads lying
on the ground. In these stalks,
just above the joints which are
beneath the breaks in the stalks one
can detect by the use of q pen-knife
the puparia or so-called FLAX seed"
which will later turn into the fly.
These flax seeds are not really
within the stalk, but very closly
applied to it within the sheath of the
leaf. If tho farmer does not want
his wheat to suffer next year, these
''flax seed'' must be dest royed as
soon after quitting as possible. The
following are acceptable methods
for accomplishing this.
(1) Burning the stubble when
possible. This is more easily done
if the wheat is cut short, that is,
if long stubbles are left on the field.
~ Flowing the stubble in such
q way that the straw is completely
turned under. This must be done
thoroughly to be effective.
8 All screening and litter about
the threshine machine should be
cleaned up and either fed or burned.
Leave no litter from the threshing
on the field. There is no need, how
ever, of burning the straw pile.
~ Since the fly lays it's eggs, as
a rule, in the same locality where it
emerges from the FLAX seed, ut is
best not to plant wheat on the same
ground two years in succession.
This is still done in some places
aud is practice which should be
stopped. Rotation of crops should
be the rule everywhere. Varieties
of wheat which produce a stout
stalk are the least affected by this
pest.
A more com plete account OF the
life history of this insect will be
pubsihed later in report from this
department.

Worthy Of Imitation.

Mr.. A. M. Long, one Of the most
prosperous and up.to-date farmers OF
the Saluda Valley, was in town last
Thursday, with load Of good things
from the farm, such as nice, fresh
butter, eggs, chickens, potatoes,
home cured hams and bacon. MIR.
Long believes in making more sup
plies than are necessary for home
consumption, and as a consequence
he seldom comes to town but what
he brings some kind Of farm product
to sell. He finds that this pays him
better than to raise all cotton. His
example is worthy of imitation.

The store of VIM. Platt, Columbia,
is growing more popular each day,
because the proprietor allows no
goods to be misrepresented to effect
a sale. The price of dry goods:
notions and millinery is fixed accord

the article is sold on it's merits. Only
standard goods are sold and the pur-
chaser is satisfied that he is getting
a good article at the lowest possible

Special Agent F. P. Boushee has

to have all the petitions acted upon
favorably but some were rejected.

failed to meet the requirements.
