, duccd these wonderful crops are South
Carolinians and the fourth is a Gcor-
gian. Thcy are: l.. J. Drake, Of
Marlboro; j. Smelling, Of Barnwcll;
X. 7. Gillespie, Of York, and W. l..
Peek, Of Rock Dale County, Ga.
For this lrizc, as ! said, there were
many competitors from all sections Of
this great country, and the crops Of
the forty five leading farmers are Of
record, being seventeen from thc
Northern States and fourteen each
from West and South. And the aver
age Of the Northern States is 81 bush
els per acre, Of the average value Of
SCI for feeding.
OF the Western States the yield
was an average of 81 bushels Of the
feeding value Of SCI.
OF the cotton producing States the
average yield was 81 bushels Of the
feeding value Of ST.
And, as above stated, Of these four
teen cotton planters, four are South
Carolina and Georgia men, the four
highest and three of the highest four
are South Carolina men.
Hence the South Carolina farmer
who buys corn from Western grower
is paying for an article indispensable
in his business a higher price to anoth-
cr farmer one thousand miles distant
than he can produce that article at
himself. Worse than that, he is buy
ing from the Western farmer, with
freight and commission charges add
ed, what it costs the Westerner more
| to produce on his own farm than it
would cost the Carolina farmer to make
on his own field.
Honestly, is there not "more hope
of fool" than Of such farmer
The brilliant orator and statesman,
James G. Blaire, said: "Corn will
yet be the spinal column oe the ma
tion's agriculture. If that be true,
and think it is, the South can never
ill the prominent part in the nation 8
material prosperity and granduer
which she is entitled to claim until
she makes corn along with cotton, q
staple and stable crop. Then it will
be seen that while cotton will Auctu-
ate in value, sometimes paying hand
some profit and at other times not
fetching the cost of production, corn
will always pay splendid dividend, +,
paying best at those times when cot
ton is worth least. Corn is the safest
and surest crop that in this region Of
summer heat and droughts farmer
can plant.
The drought sthat cuts tho corn
crop short always Injuries the cotton
crop more; that is to say, when JUS
tice has been shown the corn in pre-
paration and cultivation Of the land.
Ina this argument for corn, having
quoted the statesman, James G.
Blaine, l will close by adding the
testimony of the experienced and long
serving sheriff Of Barnwell County
and Confederate Veteran, Capt. j. II.
Creech: II have never been called on
- sell out any farmer who sold ooru." ;"

THE CUT MUST BE RIGHT.
An Old Tailor's Opinion Regarding
Sermons as Well as
Clothes.

William Dean Howells was at Oxford,
where an honorary degree had been con-
ferred upon him. He was walking down
High street with an aged fellow of Brase-
nose college, relates London exchange.
The talk turned to the passing Of one
literary school and the rise Of another,
and the Oxford man said:
II am reminded of an old clergyman
l used to know in Woodstock.
'He was very old. The only person
in his parish of equal age with him was
a tailor, and the tailor and he were great
friends. They often called on each
other.
well, one evening the clergyman sat
in the tailor's shop. He was quiet and
thoughtful. He gazed into the fire in
silence for long time. Finally he said
with sigh:
james, I can't tell why It Is that our
congregation is getting smaller and
smaller. 1 am sure preach as well as
ever did, and l must have gathered a
great deal of wisdom and experience
since I first came among you"
'"Ah, sir said the tailor, sadly, old
parsons nowadays are like old tailors.
am sure sew as well as ever l did, and
my cloth is the same, or better, but it,

BEAUTY OF GOOD NATURE.
Many an Otherwise Plain Face Is Re
deemed by Its Expression
Of Good Will.

Now, that girl was absolutely wrong.
Good nature does not mean any of those
things. 1t means happy, sunshiny ma
ture, doing kindly little services for 9TH
ers, obliging, ready to do more than your
share OF work-no crossness or peevish-
ness, says the Detroit Free Press.
Oh, it's a great blessing, the quality
Of good nature.
1t does not mean that you are in the
slightest degree weak, but it does usual
ly mean that you put self in the back
ground, doing for others much that they.
taking advantage Of your good nature,
will not take the trouble to do for you.
II you have ever lived with peevish
or sulky person, you can appreciate the
blessing of living with good-natured
one.
Peevishness is sometimes the result
OF poor health, suffering has warped
the entire nature until nothing is good
or lovely In the eyes of the unhappy suf-
ferer.
But sulkiness is purely the result Of
brooding over real or fancied wrongs,
making yourself and everyone else un-
happy
The misery of living with sulky per-
son is untold
The good-natured person will, Of
course, always be imposed upon to a
certain degree, but you can be good
naturally firm and make q stand when
you think the selfish ones are pushing
you too hard
Good nature is a great beautifier.
Many an otherwise plain face is re-
deemed by its expression of good will
toward all mankind.
Men are always anxious to meet a
pretty girl, but if they find that her
beauty is only on the surface they very
quickly tire of her.
Beauty is very fine as a luxury, but
for steady, everyday use sweetness OF
disposition Is much more satisfactory
And don't imagine that because a girl
is good natured she has no other charms.
Cultivate good nature-it is invalu-
able all through life.

FALL AND WINTER FiNERY.
Items of Dress That Will Attract the
Attention of Fashions
Devotees.

The high crowned velvet hat, accord
ing to Parision advices, will be the
leader for fall and winter.
Ostrich feathers will reign supreme
for hat trimming, and Prince of Wales
tips will be revived.
High draped belts Of taffeta, lOuisine
and liberty silk are worn with fetching
summer gowns.
An extreme Partisan fancy is the
wearing of a short, semi-loose crimson
jacket with a white costume.
Louisine and net ribbons are much
worn with silk gowns, and sashes OF
figured chiffon or organdy are worn with
alI-white frocks of plain organdy or
batiste.
Tucked yoke blouses are in great
demand in both London and Paris, but
this style is only suitable for the softer
fabrics, such as India linon and mus
lin, crabe de chine or the thinner fou-
lard silks.
Walking skirts just clear the ground
or are from an inch to two inches above
it, according to becomingness and use
fulness The hip yoke Is still used with
a narrow front panel.
