The sight that is more suggest
i've of the Easter-tide than any
other we have seen is the west
VINO dow of the Corner Store. Sus-
pended from above are beautiful
Easter bells aud in the window
are cunning little chicks and rab-
bits that seem to be SO playful and
SO natural as to deceive the closest
observer. This window betokens
whnt is within-beautiful Easter
merchandise.

It seems that the men and mules
and horses have not been able to
plant enough cotton go the women
and COWS and cxen have been
pressed into service. The writer
saw n woman ridging cotton land
a few days ago with wooden
stock drawn by.a bull yearling.
The novel sight could not do
otherwise than provoke a smile
but it would have been indeed
refreshing had this plow-woman
and her bull yearling been pre-
pairing for planting corn.
Mr.. J. C. Wise who resides ten
miles south of Edgefeld called
upon the ADVERTISER on Monday
and during our very pleasant COLI
versation told us that be had fifty
or sixty acres of corn from six to
eight inches high that was killed
by the cold Of Sunday night. He
had plowed all Of this corn once
aud some Of it had been four fur
rowed. Besides the risk incurred
in re-plantiug SO late in his sec
tion, Mr.. Wise has lost five or six
bushels of seed corn aud all of the
labor of the first planting and the
subsequent working.
