a Word to Chrysanthemum

The time is near at hand for trans
planting chrysanthemums, and it is the
earnest desire Of those who are charged
with the management of the county
fair that the ladies generally in all
parts of the county give the cultivation
of this queen of flowers increased at
tention. The floral department is one
of the most attractive features OF the
fair, and whether it be a success or
failure next fall depends solely upon
the ladies swho grow flowers. Edge
field has an established reputation for
its fine chrysanthemums. Let not this
reputation suffer by the failure to give
the culture of chrysanthemums atten-
ton at the proper time.
The men upon whose shoulders the
burden of the fair rests are looking to
the ladies' to make the floral feature a
success.

Classsand 3. F. 7.

III WAS the writer SpleasuTe ac-
companied BY Prof. j. Il. Breedin
of the s. G. c. l., to spend Sunday
last among the good people of Red
Hill. No preaching service was held
but the attendance upon Sunday
school and Baraca class in the fore
noon and -. Y. p. U. in the after
noon was very large. While Prof.
Ereedin addressed the Baraca boys,
numbering about half a hundred,ou
in. the school building, the writer
enjoyed the privilege of meeting
with the Sunday school in the
church.
Red Hill has the largest country
Sunday school in the county. 1t
meets every Sunday and the aver
age attendance is about 100. Mr.. G.
E.. Quarles is the superintendent
having served in that capacity for
IL years.
Mr.. Charlie Mcdaniel is presi-
dent of the Baraca class, Mr.. Ernest
Quarles is secretary and MI. G. M.
Mellichamp serves the class as teach
er. Several new names were added
Sunday as a result of the helpful
and inspiring talk by Prof. Breedin.
At the conclusion of the morning
exercises, the people returned to
their homes for dinner. Prof. Bree-
din and the writer had the good
fortune to be entertained in a most
gracious manner at the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. Ernest Quarles, where
that exemplary young man, Bache-
lor Mellichamp makes his home.
About $3.50 o'clock the people
from the community, which is
densely settled, re-assembled for the
meeting of the B. Y. P. u, which
was presided over by AIR. Melli-
champ, the fair president, Miss An
ME Mathis, being~on of the lead
Gers in the singing. After a short
talk by Mr.. j. L. Minis, Prof. BE
din, in asmosl effective manner, de.
liyered an address on Christian
service, His every word was re-
ceiyed with rapt attention and we
are confident that lasting benefit
will result.
The savant and the scribe both
spent an exceedingly pleasant day
at Red Hill, and SO cordial was the
hospitality of the people that these
wayfarers were loath to bid them
adieu.

More Live, Stock Needed.

The call for more attention to
live stock in the South is doubly
imperative. First, by reason of
the fact that profits in stock raising
are greater than in any other line
of agriculture, and second, that
this is the only way that we can
build up our Southern soils and
save the ten to twenty million dol
lars now wasted every year by the
application of fertilizers to lands
that cannot probably use it by rea-
son of the lack of humus.-Progres-
sive Farmer.
