We have heard good farmers say that fall oats will never fail if you sow them the latter part of August as the first of September. This is a salvation crop and onr farmers should go to work and put in a good crop this season. They always come in at con¬ venient times, and if you have plenty of oats next year with your present corn crop you will have little cost in makiug another crop. Snake Bite Cure. In case some of our readers may happen to be snake bitten some time, we give the following which is said to be a never failing remedy to cure a snake 1 ite: Take the green moss from the north-side of an oak tiee and make a tea from it aud let the bitten person rub the bite with anJ drink of it, and it is said to never fail. It is said also to be good for poison oak breakingout. It is simple but would be worth try¬ ing. >—• —< Triplets With Teeth.

Meadows has something more than a good crop to make him happy. Sharon will furnish more jurors this court than any other town same size this side Mason and Dixon line. The continued damp weather ha* prevented fruit dryers, and the test way to get the benefit of tho peach crop is to put it in meat by feeding them to hogs. Dr. C. S.

A Gathering of Clever People Thursday of Last Week. We return thanks to the Misses An¬ derson, their father, Mr. E. I, and others for a cordial invitation (which wo accepted of course) to attend on the above occasion. The day opened up brightly end a good crowd assembled on tho grounds around tho beautiful spring of Mr. IS. I. Anderson, where the neighborhood had thrown in to an old-fashion bar becne. They had on the pit eleven carcasses and as the assembly began to gather the aroma from tho’ cooking meats weeded its way through the pretty, slanting grovo surrounding the spring, until all appetites were fully w j, e ttoil. Nice seats were prepared th cr0WI , W as not the least fail¬ gued, amt noil tneie there were were no no speauers sneakers to 10 “keep them spell bound,” but every ,„Jy felt at homo ami acted way. There were several pretty young ladies present and the young men and olil bachelors had a good time chatting while the older people had conversa¬ tions on the general topics of the day and the time was well filled up to tho dinner hour. At that time a corps of men were selected to wait on tho table and all the ladies were gathered around the first table and they were well fed while all the gentlemen stood back and saw it well done. After they were fully satisfied tho gents were brought forward, and we must say that they were uncommonly well filled. We were in a position to seo and know what they eat. Dr. Kent. John Ilixon. Dr. Standi ver, Mr. Win. Lauham, and many others wo might mention, exhibited samples of tho good appetites that tho rich climate of this.section can afford. When il is known that Messrs. John Overton, Pope Mitchell, Tom Coldough, Mr. Jarrell and others did the cooking it is no wonder that tho meats were so much relished. Those gentlemeiFknow how to prepare, bar¬ becue and generally “!lx-up” a piece of meat and make it suit all. * The meats were cooked in excellent stylo. Wo return thanks to Mrs. Overton and others for courtesies extended us while around that festive table, We enjoyed tho whole affair very much. After dinner a game of ball was playsd between Bothany and the Rough and Touglr club, a collection^ of old players. The game, at the end of the fifth inning was against Bethany, but the other club refusing to nlay longer the game was given to Bethany fi to 0. We long to be with those wholesoul ed people again.
