Chari.ekton, S. C., July 6.—All that sec
tion of country lying along the line of the
Booth Cnrolinn railway, between Midway,
in Barnwell county, and Aiken, maybe
called the Rarden spot of South Carolina.
The land is fertile and easily cultivated, Is
abundantly watered by never-failing
'streams and is settled by Industrious, en
ergetic and intelligent people. On either
ride of the railway track welJ-kept farms,
neatly-trimmed vineyards and teeming
orchards stretch away as far as the oye can
reach. The Newn and Courier of this date
contains the following interesting article
on the subject of
GROWING MELONS FOR MARKET.
About fonr years ago a few of the farm
ers or Barnwell county began to plant
watermelons “for market.” The cultivation
of the crop was so easy and the profits so
large that the aereage was increased, bet
ter methods were employed, improved
varieties of seed used and closer economics
practiced, until now the growing of melons
for shipment to northern and western
cities has become an established industry.
In 1884 three thousand acres were planted
in watermelons. Owing to certain unfavor
able conditions of the seasons and the mar
kets t lie returns on the crops were not so
large as had been expected, and the melon-
growers were somewhat discouraged. The
acreage in 18H5 was considerably
reduced. not more than 2318
neris having been planted in melons,
The profits on t ho cron last year were so
large and the demand so well sustained
throughout tlie season that there have
been more than five thousand acres planted
in melons this year. The condition of tin-
crop is promising, although the heavy
rains in June, it is believed by some of t In-
growers, will greatly decrease the yield.
The early rains in June caused many of
the first melons to tall off the vines, and
the heavy showers with the cool weather
which prevailed during a part of the
month will probably damage the
second crop of melons or cause them
to “shed." The vines, however, appear to
lie strong and healthy, and with favorable
weather until the middle of July tin-
crop will doubtless be the largest and
most remunerative ever grown. The
acreage planted in melons as reported is as
follows: At Williston 1100 acres, at White
Pond 875 acres, at KIko 171 acres, at Black-
ville <150 acres, at Barnwell and along the
line of the Barnwell railroad 500 acres, at
Aiken 250 acres, at Graham's 185 acres, at
Lee’s 135 acres, at Reynold’s 182 acres, at
Windsor 150 acres, at Montmorcnei 350
acres, at Bambcry 125 acres, at Midway 30
acres, making a total of 5000 acres. It is
^estimated that with favorable seasons each
acre will yield at least 500 melons and that
the total crop grown in Barnwell and
Aiken counties tills year for shipment to
outside markets will amount to 2,500,0(H)
melons or 2000 ear loads of 1250 melons
each.
MERKETING THE MELONS.
The Barnwell melon is considered by
many eonnoisseurcs to be the best melon
ever sold in this market- surpassing in
flavor and edible qualities even tne famous
“rattlesnake.” The melons are of the
“Kolb Gem” variety. They have a thin
but very tough rind, and easily stand ship
ment to distant markets. The “meat” of
this melon is generally red and the flavor
delicious. It is said to command a better
price than any other melon, and is steadily
growing in popular favor, as the politi
cians say. It Is expected that the first
shipments will be made this year during
the present week, although it is feared the
heavy rains of the past three weeks may
delay the bulk of the crop.
With its usual enterprise the Houth Caro
lina railway company has made the most
complete arrangements for the prompt
and early forwarding of the crop to mar
ket. Side tracks have been built at all im
portant points along the line of road and
within convenient reach of the largest
melon fields. A special agent will lie en
trusted with the duty of loading and for
warding tlie crop so that the least possible
time shall lie lost between the gathering of
the melons and their arrival at the various
points to which they will be shipped. It is
expected that three steamships will leave
Charleston for New York every week dur
ing the shipping season, which will make
close connection with the melon trains on
the South Carolina railway. The melon
cars will run down to the railway wharf
■where the melons will he transferred to
the steamers and stowed away between
decks. Bach carload of melons will lie
placed in separate pens or bins on the
steamers so as to insure their proper de
livery in New York.
For the western markets the melons will
be forwarded from tile shipping points
every evening for Augusta, where the
melon ears will tie transferred to the Geor
gia railroad. The train will reach Atlanta
at half-past 7 o’clock the next morning af
ter shipment, and will arrive in Chattanoo
ga at half-past 7 o’clock in the evening,
about twenty-four hours after the time of
shipment. At Chattanooga the melon ears
will be divided among tile connecting rail
roads for the West, and will lie promptly
forwarded to their destination.
Special facilities will also lie provided for
tilt- shipment of melons to Columbia. Cam
den and to all points on the Charlotte, Co
lumbia and Augusta, and on the Columbia
and Greenville railroads. As a further
convenience for the melon growers tele
graph offices will be opened at l-llko and
White I’ond, by which means daily reports
as to tin-condition of the markets can lie
received. In a word, the shipping arrange
ments have been made so perfect that the
cantankerous editor of tM“ Indianapolis
Journal and the polished blade of the
Hartford Courant may eat luscious, red-
hearted watermelons grown on South Car
olina soil at the same time that the domes
tics of the white house at Washington are
indulging in the same delicious southern
luxury.
THE PROFITS ON MELONS.
As already stated, it is expected that at
least 2.500,000 melons will tie grown in
Barnwell and Aiken counties this ye ir.
These melons will, of course, vary greatly
ill size and price, but with a reasonably
active market it is estimated that tile crop
will lie worth about $l>0,(!00. it costs about
two cents apiece to raise melons for mar
ket. An intelligent and enterprising
farmer at Black'.i’.le told me the otln-r day
that if lie could sell all his melons at five
cents apiece he would make a fortune. At
four cents apiece, all round, the profit on
the crop is large, and at three cents apiece
money can be made. Last year lie made
$20 an acre on his crop, of which
amount $12 was clear profit. His
expenses for working the crop,
and for fertilizers and nil other items
amounted to $8 an acre. He
says that there is more money.in growing
melons than in raising cotton. At Willis-
ton an old melon grower, a pioneer in the
business, said that he had received last
year as much as $1.50 for one ear load of
melons, and that his receipts on about
forty car loads of melons sent to market
( averaged about $55 a carload. His profits
on melon growing amounted to $15 an
acre. He strongly believes that there is
more money in melons than in cotton, and
that the actual cost of raising cotton
amounts to 7 or 7: cents a pound. Taking
the lowest estimate given of tile profits on
melon-growing, and the farmers of Barn
well, and -Aiken will make $ lOjIUN) clear
on the crop of the present year. The suc
cess of melon-growing is tin strongest
argument that could be used in behalf of
diversifying our agricultural industries.
I A BRIDAL COUPLE'S TOUR.

Now, what’s the use of it? When a
couple gel married and go off on a bridal ,
tour whv so misbehave themselves as to lie ,
“spotted" by every man, woman and child
on the train for “fresh fish?” How silly
the thing must appear to them when they
look back after a period of six months!
Are we fools when in love, and are we
idiots when we marry ?
The couple I have in mind had a seat in
the middle of the ear. She was his’n and
he was hers. All the tomfoolery of court
ship days was over. The preacher had
made them one, and her father would n<5 t
’ longer set the dog on him or place torpe
does around th i gate. She didn't show the i
least disposition to jump out of the car
window, but all of a sudden he grabbed
her by the paw. She grabbed back. Then
he leaned over at an angle of 45 degrees,
and she fell toward him. It was a very
i uncomfortable position, but they main
tained it with scarcely any change for
hours. Her hat got skewed around almost
hindside before, but she would not release
her clutch for fear he'd go through the
roof. His collar wilted and his necktie
worked around under his ear, but if he’d
let go her paw she’d think he was mad.
“Darling!' 1 said he in a bullfrog whisper,
“doesn’t it seem funny?”
“I can’t realize it,” she answered, as she
raked one of her back hairpins across his
nose.
“AH mine?”
“Yes, love.v.”
“Never get mad?”
“Never, sweety.”
Tlie man on tlie seat behind them folded
u]i the paper, picked up his grip, and
changed to a seat a toss the aisle. As lie
sat down a motherly-looking woman in
quired:
“Are they married?”
“I think so, madam.”
“And can nothing be done to stop it?"
“1 think not.”
For two or three minutes the newly wed
ded were silent.
“Darling !" she suddenly sighed.
“What is it, my angel?”
“Darling!”
“What is it? If any base hyena has
(lurid localise you a moment's unhappi
ness I'll murder him. I’oint out the ani
mal !”
“It isn’t tlint.”
“Then what ?”
“I’m—I'm afraid you'll In—lie mad."
‘•No, I won't. How could I he mad at
you ? What is it, Dolly?”
“Why. I wish you'd wipe the sweat out
of that left ear. Now, you love me just the
same, don’t you ?"
“(If course.”
“And you ain’t mad ?”
“Why, no. There, now- who cares who's
looking? It’s nobody's business anyhow !’’
There was another interval of silence,
during which she tried to remember
whether they were engaged the week be
fore her fattier gave funry the hoot or
whether it was the next Sunday after.
“Henwy ?”
"What, angel ?”
“Are we weally married?”
“Yes, love.”
“ And you love me?”
“ With all my heart.”
“ And you ain’t mad?”
“ No, dearest.”
“ Then I’m so happy ! Henry, squeeze
my hand,"
He squoze. We held an indignation
meeting mid appointed a commit tee to see
if something could not be done; but he
squoze the harder.
Three or four women got together and
passed a resolution to the effect that if a
railroad company could not protect its
passengers tne legislature should he ap
pealed to, but tlml couple had u death-
grip oil each other and wouldn’t let go.
The baggageman came in when sent for,
but he said he was helpless. He knewjust
how we must feel, but the rond wasn't to
blame. The conductor came back to the
car and asked us not to lay it lip against
him. He was a poor man. had been out of
a job several months, and this was his first
run.
Well, the long and short of the matter
was that eighteen or twenty of us rode 150
miles with that panorama, but such a
thing willlnever happen again—never. Wo
shook hands on that, and agreed we'd
walk first.
