THE BIGGEST YIELD,
TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY
BUSHELS OF CORN ON ONE
ACRE.
Columbia,Dee- 4.—f Special.]—A few
days ago the Atlanta Constitution, in
a moment of premature eestacyat beat
ing a South Carolina record of 110 bush
els of corn to the acre, published under
conspicuous head lints the announce
ment that a Georgia farmer had made
130 bushels, 28 pounds to the acre. It
did not take the News and Courier long
to produce a South Carolina farmer
who, this season, made 130 bushels, 50
pounds on one acre.
There is a South Carolina farmer who
has made this year 254 bushels, 49
pounds of corn upon one acre of this
State's unsurpassed soil.
Senator C. S. McCall, of Marlboro,
himself one of the largest and most
successful planters in the State, tells
the News and Courier Bureau that this
yield has been made by Mr. Z.T.Drake,
of Drake’s P. O., in the southern part
of Marlboro county. The Senator
has'not seen the corn measured, but he
saw the crop while it was growing,and
then thought that the yield would be
200 bushels, and he knows the men who
measured the corn and the surveyor
who marked the boundaries of the
acre.
Mr. Drake told him yesterday that
this had been the yield of his prize crop
as measured by the committee, it being
understood, ol couse, than he was com
peting for the $500 prize offered the
farmers of the United States by the
American Agriculturist for the largest
yield of corn on one acre, and the addi
tional prize of $500 offered by the South
Carolina department of agriculture to
the farmers in this State who should
win the American agriculturist’s
prize.
Senator McCall has written to-night
to Mr. Drake urging him to have the
report of the committee published at
once. It is understood that Mr. Drake
put $175 worth of fertilizers upon his
prize acre. The land was a sandy bot
tom of the incomparable Marlboro
type, and the crop was made, it is un
derstood, without irrigation. Mr.
Drake is a thoroughly reliable man and
the report of the committee will verify
his statement to Senator McCall.
Heretofore this county, Richland,has
had the honor of producing the largest
crop of corn on record, Dr. Parker
having made on the outskirts of Co
lumbia, before the war, two hundred
bushels and twelve quarts on one acre.
Now the championship goes to Marl
boro county, for it is hardly creditable
that this enormous yield can he exceed
ed anywhere else in the world.

Kingston, N. Y. Due. 4.-(Special)—
Mrs. Hanna South worth is remembered
at Pine Hill Margaretville and other vil
lages in the Catskills as a dashing yonn
widow.
During the summer’s of 1886 and 1887
she hoarded at Pine Hill at the base of
Summit mountain, «ml also at the Ac-
kerly House at Margaretville. Dueing
her sojourn at the mountain resort she
was considered ohe of the liveliest ladie
in- town and envited by many of her
sex. She was well eq uipped wijh jew
els and fine wearing apparel and \v; s
always in posession of plenty of money
which she spent lavishly.
She appeared to think nothing of
getting up private picuics and excur
sions to points of interest^ charter con
veyances for the transportation of her
aquaintances, hearing the entire ex
pense. She found no difficulty in pro
curing a host of male admirers. Mrs.
South worth was also fond of all man
ner of exciting sport. At a running
race between a pony owned by a Sena
tor Eleishman and a horse known as
“Symond’s mare,” which took place
at Arkvilh*, she bet and lost heavily on
the latter. She did not mourn over her
loss, only saying:
‘I have more to bet and don’t you
forget it.”
At heps, Germans and receptions she
as never found missing. At Pine
Hill sha cloned men’s clothing on sev
eral occasions, as the young men joc
ularly informed her that she made quite
a charming young.swell. During her
stay in the mountains she was frequent
ly visited by a man said to be from
Brooklin, but whether or not it was
Pettus is unknown.

New York, Dec. 3.--Regarding the
proposed consolidation of the Farmer’s
Union and the Knights of Labor, Pres
ident Jones, of the former organization,
telegraphed the Herald from St. Louis,
saying:
‘•Wecan perfect a plan of co-opera
tion if not consolidation. But I see no
reason why we should not consolidate
It is very probable that an arrangement
will be made whereby will co-oper
ate with Knights of Labor, I have no
information that the Knights
of Labor will make over
tures to the Farmers’ Union at this con
vention leading toward a combination
of forces; hut I am advised by Presi
dent Livingston, of the Georgia State
Alliance, that Mr. Powderly will appear
before the convention in advocacy of
the scheme. Personally. I am strongly
in favor of it, and 1 believe I represent
the sentiment of a majority of the farm-
try. The Knights of Labor are power
ful in large cities, while the farmers
and laborers, union embraces the great
bulk of the agricultural population
Each thus has an element of strength*
that the other lacks, and in certain ini
portant movements of vital interest to
both. It would be of the greatest advan
tege to have complete harmony of ac
tion.
