PLENTY Of Cotton.

It is not thought now that any CT
the cotton mills of this State will
have to close down at any time dur
ing the summer. At first when cot
ton was soaring up and many OF the
mills were running on a hand and
mouth basis it was thought that
many of them would have to close
for awhile. Most Of them have re-
covered however, and have placed
contracts for supplies large enough
to run them until next October, the
opening of the cotton season. A
rough estimate places the number of
bales to be used by the three large
cotton mills in Columbia from now
until the fall. at about 16,00l bales.
Contracts have been placed for all of
this and there will not be the slight
est difficulty in securing the cotton.
n Georgia the conditions are prac-
tically the same, but in North Caro-
lima several of the mills have to shut
down.

Manila, via San Francisco, April
27.-In official circles the fear is
gradually becoming prevalent that
the end of the rice harvest season
will see an uprising of greater or less
proportions in several of the prov
inces. Already there is mobiliza-
tion of lawless natives under way in
the incessible hills of Ca7ite prov.
ince. This is believed will be the
lest effort on the part of r casio and
his followers to secure Independence.

SEPTEMBER WHEAT.
The busy season is here. Every one
should be ready for it. Plow stocks,
wheat drills and all farm implements
should be put in good condition, 30
that no time will be lost when they are
needed. The cotton hampers and pick
ing sacks should be secured and cotton
houses cleaned out. The corn cribs
and barns should be everhauled and all
leaks stopped. Pulling fodder will de-
mand first attention. Watch the
weather and meyer let it get wet after
it has begun to cure. Pea vine hay
will be ready for the mower the last of
the month. Various methods of saving
and curing that will be given later.
The first opening of cotton is near the
ground. That should be picked as
soon as it open, for a hard dash of rain
colors it very much. If there is any
stubble of uncultivated land on the
farm, break and harrow two or three
times, 80 as to mix the clay with the
soil. Sow in small grain. Rye or late
varieties of oats may be sown os early
SIS the middle of the month. The early
oats and wheat may be sown in Octo-
Der, but land should be prepared this
month, if there is no crop on it. Grim
son clover should be soWn as early as
possible. Turnips and mustard sown
