—Rocky Branch, Jarrett’s Academy.
Lost Stand etc. But a few Sundays ago
while listening to Mr. D. C. Roberts
deliver a Sunday school lecture, he gave
our place anew name. He said he call
ed it Southern Africa. We pause for a
moment and wonder wiy he gave the
above name. Is it because he thinks it
a place of heathens and barbarians, or
is it because he lives here? We would
like to know if any one ever heard it
called such a name until he moved in
theoommunicy? We would like for him
to explain why and how he came to give
I his barbarous and savage name to an
enlightened, christianized and civilized
place as Rook Branch and Lost Stand.
We think the name given by Mr. Rob
erts a reflection on the good people here
and demands an explanation.

E. E. B. BILL
OTHOSCHTON
Writes Another Letter to
The Farmers.
1 wish to say to the editor of The
Economist that I want his paper 12
months and longer as I like to read it,
like his style of editing a paper and
will do all I can to extend its circulation
in my section.
Now, Mr Farmer, what is the policy
to adopt to advance prices of our pro
ducts?
First, it is to stop using guano and
stop these cotton notes due to the gu
ano companies of about four million
bags of cotton that you sell them when
you sign these notes every year at half
value of the cotton, which in all pro
ability these guano companies have
sold to the factories at reduced prices
and perhaps have drawn money on them
and have it to operate on in summer time
when money is scarce with us farmers.
Also lets try and raise our corn,
wheat, meat and all our supplies at
home and not be forcsd to sell at these
low prices. I used guauo for about sev
en years and saw that I was going dowu
hill a little every year and getting lower
prices for my products. I had these notes
to meet aud had to force my cotton on
the market at a low price to meet them.
I quit guano and have been getting on
a great deal better ever since. I run a
one horse farm and made about six bags
of cotton last year ou about ten acres
of land without any manure or guauo.
It takes work aud laud to make cotton,
aud work at. the right time. I believe
we farmers have given the guano
companies in the last 23 years enough
of our products to buy all the farms at
S2O per acre, aud what is our loss is
gain to others.
We have uuder the present system
grown poorer every year. Lets change
this hard living to better living and cut
off these low priced products and stiarks
who aro getting all we make aud learn
to appreciate what is keeping us all

COMPLICATION-
Thomas Jefferson Was Not Born
on April 13th, the Day Set for
His Birthday Dinners.
There will be many dinners in honor
of Thomas Jefferson, April 13th Ye*
he was not born on that day. He w#
born on April 2d, 1743, old style, tr
owing to the new style of time comp o '
tation beginning with the introduction
of the Gregoriau Calendar, 1752, a
which time the Equinox had retrograd
ed eleven days since the Council of V l '
in A. D. 325, when the festival of Easter
was established and the equinox oc
curred on March 21, the dates of anni
versaries originating prior to Pope
goiy’s Calendar are determined by ar ‘
ding eleven days, hence Thomas
fersou’s birthday is properly observe
on April 13th. This interesting f

pages. That newspaper offers to sen -‘
