rine.t Tobacco In che world.

Some OF the finest tobacco i'm the
world to-day is grown in the Philip
pines. As is the case with everything
there, however the land remains un-
cultivated for lack of working capital.
Millions are 10 be made by raising to-
bacco. Maize and rice are readily
raised, but, so far, merely for home
consumption. The excellent quality
of these products proves conclusively
that the latent possibilities of the is
lands are practically without limit.
Cacao (chocolate) Is another native
product which may lie raised upon this
rich soil with n minimum amount Of
cultivation. IL is difficult TO realize
how handicapped all these native in
dustries are for the lack OF machinery.
The greater part Of the rice gathered
in the Philippines, in fact, practically
all of il, is taken out by hand. The
same primitive methods obtain in
other industries in all parts OF the
islands. And these conditions are
due TO poverty, nothing else, for the
natives are naturally progressive and
take kindly TO the use OF new ma
chinery.-- Washington Star.

Wonderful Success.

The Palmetto Collegiate Institute,
which has been successfully managed
BY Prof. O. D. Seay for the past
several years, closed it's session last
week in a very prosperous condition.
Besides the large number of day
scholars, there were forty-fve board
ing students in attendance. This is
perhaps the largest school in the
county, and on account OF it's eff ,
cheney and thoroughness OF work,
grows more and more in popularity.
The attendance during the session
which has just closed has been 80
large and satisfactory that the trus-
tees are seriously considering the
proposition to either enlarge the
present building or erect larger
and more convenient one on more
elaborate plan and equip it with
modern appliances, 80 as to facilitate
the work of the teachers and make
it more efficient than it has even
been in the past. One or the other
of the two suggestions will certainly
be adopted before the beginning OF
the nsxt session.

Heavy Rainfall.

Last Monday this vicinity was
visited by the haviest rain storm that
the oldest inhabitsnt ever saw. 1t
was a genuine gully washer, stump
litter and trash mover. It seemed
for awhile that the bottom had
dropped out of the clouds and this
old world was to witness the second
edition Of Nosh's Flood. But the
rainbow promised allayed our fesrs
and We fell to sleep as peacefully as
q babe upon it's mothers breast.
No damage was done by the down
pour of water, however except OF a
minor nature caused by washing
gullies through the gardens and
fields.
Mr.. P. Il. Corley was the heaviest
loser, as far as we have heard. The
dam in Muller's bottom, on depot
street, which he had just completed
at heavy expense, was broken and
a large gap washed away.
The weave room and engine room
at the factory was submerged and the
factory had to shut down for portion
of yesterday.
