A pathetic Enoch Arden ro
nance which occurred in the nor

narrated by the Dnblnnega Signal :
Bill Calloway of this county serv
ed a term in the North Carolina

this county to ttiid his w ife, who
wan Ellen Waters, divorced and
married again. Rill, not satisfied
at thus finding matters, hired on
a farm, and at tho house was a
young woman named Hix. Before
the lapso of two days he made
love to the woman and, getting
her consent to mnrrv Cul him, they
applied to ’Squire Chester and
the uuptiul not was tied at 10
a. m., and at 1 p. m. both the

Mr. \V J MeMichnel is spending
this week among his friends in the
upper portion of Jasper county.
We presume it customary for a
candidate to prospecting spend as much within time
aa boundary possible limits, but opinion bis
our
thadinm of this particular Mr Michael case is that nil

cause his ftiends are too numerous
and he is too loyal to their sacred
trust to be denied nn overwhel
ming majority.
I joined a seining composed party of one \V
evening last week MeMichnel Joe
S Tyner, J S and
E F Adams. We received as a re
ward for onr service a few red

shins and a heup of fun. One of
tho party, who walked up and
down the hanks, amusing fish himself in
with the idea that the were
no danger, offered a reward for
everyone that was caught. At the
end it was soon discovered that
we had exhausted his purse com
pletely, and he offered his note
for the amount due. The note is
good if you can get him to redeem
it, but we will transfer all claims
to any one for another mess

and tho revenue officers doing all
they can to break up illicit distil

breaking the laws of his country.
Then what do you want to do it

You break 11)<• laws of nature

Answeb.—A* yet this crop Is not eat
tiTated »«> ««y great extent. A few

cent years. It withstands hont and cold
and drouth, and wlillo it will giro a fair
crop on poor laud, 1 a ns aro nil other for
age cropi, most profitable ou rich and
well prepared land. It is eaten with
relish by alt furm nntinals, makes
n most desirable ensilage, and is a most
excellent forage plant for soiling pur
poses. On account of its habit of growth
it is difficult to cure as hay. As to time
of sowing, etc., wo quote from tho bul
letin: ‘‘Hairy Vetches may be plauted
from about the middle of August to the
middle of September, or in spring from
the latter part of April until the middlo
<>? May. Sow broadcast at tho rate of a
bushel and a half of seed per aero, or
plant in drills two to four feet apart.
The latter plan will require a smaller
amount of seed. The seed are as yot
expensive, abont $0 a bushel of 60
pounds. When tho seod is put in broad
rust a bushel of oats, rye or wheat
should bo sown at the same time so as
to furnish a support for tho vetches and*
keep the vines off the ground. If it is
so "'* »* flrills in tho P Mt ot Augr
ust it should bo cultivated several rimes
between the rows. It will furnish some
t^age in autumn, and wl.ere the winter
is not too severe it will start to grow
age '**? in i lato " tho autumn and "7 early T*"? spring, ‘ 8 '"I nt
“
fto fwo io<h whea it ia nost
neoded ... At tUo Mississippi experiment
station seed of this crop was sown in
1888. No attention has been given it
and each year its seeds germinate with
tho first full rains, and in favorable sea
sons cover the ground by January 1.
furnishing good grazing until April or
May. If the stock is taken off in March
the plants mature and reseed the ground
freely for the next yenr.
This crop will not flourish on wet
land, it likes a well drained soil. If
sown in the fall it prevents washing
during tho winter. It is to bo fed when
tho vines begin to blossom, and the feed
should nt first be limited until the ani
mals become accustomed to the change
of food. For the best feeding results it
should bo given with course fodder or
bay. ‘'Cul
Howard, in Ids Manual on the
tivation of tho Grasses and Forago
Plants at the South, ” mentions the
winter and summer vetch and
also cue or two native varieties, and
sneaks in ‘commendation of tludr
utc bi.th as a ferage crop, andosanim
prover of the sell—more especially in
there soils too Finely for tho successful
prowth ..... of red clover. A gentleman of .
long experience m its culture, speaks of
tho ordinary votch as one of tho simplest
grasses grown. IIo says that peas do
not excel it as a land improver. It does
not form a sod, is strictly nn amine.',
but if allowed to mature and rlro. its
seed, they lio dormant during tho
hot days of summer; then when
the fall rains begin and the nights be
come longer and cooler, they begin to
germinate and soon cover the ground.
One advantage is that there need bo
only ono seeding, and with proper man
agemont other crops may be made and
taken oil and the vetch will again spring
up spontaneously.—State Agricultural
Department.
rrMprvlnj Sweet Potatoes.
Question. —My sweet the banks. potatoes I have arc
now sprouting in
heard that they ' can bo kept until another
cro ., made. Will you toll me how?
Answer. — In southwest Georgia I
hnve kept them for months in tho fol
lowing manner: Spread on any dry
board floor a layer of cottonseed 4 or 3
inches thick, then npon this them placo touch a
layer of potatoes, not lotting
mid tti'Bt rubbing off the sprouts if any of
have appeared. Thon another layer
cottonseed, and nuother of potatoes, etc.
Of course the cottonseed must bo dry
and must be kept so. Tho potatoes will
shrivel somewhat, bnt will retain their
flavor and sweetness for months.
I have no doubt that cottonseed hulls,
or chaff from any frail), and perhaps
hay, would answer just ns well as tho
whole cottonseed. I think, perhaps,
absolutely dry sand would also an
swer tlie same purpose.—State Agrtcal
tural Department,
To Find tho Iitvo Weight of Animal*.
Question.— method of Can finding you give the live me any weight re
liable of
of animals? I havo no moans prop
erly weighing thorn at home.
Answer.— Tho following we fluff
given by tho "Northwest Farmer:”
Wc havo never tested it, but it is doubt
less approximately correct. Multiply
tho girth in inches just back of the
shoulders, by tho length in inches from
the square of tho buttock to the point
of the shoulder blade, divide this pro
duct by 144, which will give the num
ber of square feet on the surface. If
the girth measures from 8 to 5 feet,
multiply the number of square surface
feet by 16—this wilt give the weight of
the animal. If the girth measure is
from o to 7 feet, multiply by 38. if from
7 to 9 feet, multiply by til. If less thnn
3 feet multiply by 11. Of course the
weight will mty a little according to
quality and time of measurements.-^State the feed just previ
ous to taking tho
