Monroe last Friday evening and tk, ‘ time pleasantly in music, 'collations and games "till a late hour when the entertainment was concluded by the serving of iee cream, sherbet and cake by the hostess. The occasion was intended for a surprise for their daughter, Miss Lillian Reid, who returned that afternoon from College Park, where she had been at school for several months. The guests present, were: Misses Manlie Morgan, Clyde Melton, Annie Norwood, Anna Snow, Immogene Dyches, Alice Mitchell, Nettie Dean, Louise Herndon; Mesdames Lee Pittman. Lizzie Shepherd, Abbeville; Misses Laura Jenkins, Ora and Nel lie Welch, Fitzgerald: Messrs. G. W. Holzendorf, Forest Glen; Dr. J. M. Horne, George Fuller, Sibbie; John .V. King, Rochelle; Fred Grantham, Oscar Snow, Jimmie Story, Lewter Rea. Homer Reid, Joe Little, L. J. Whitehurst and Lee Pittman. On The Right Track. Mr. R. A. Wilson, of Reidsfield, is truly an up-to-date farmer us well as a successful mill man. He is harvesting his oat crop now and in spite of the drouth which nas cut it down to half a crop, he will get 1000 pounds per acre. The oats are cut as they begin to ripen and are thor oughly cured, then baled, straw and all. They are put up into 100 10 s bales and sold at $1.00 per hundred. He states that he has demand for all he has at this price, ilis oat crop of fifty acres will, in this way, net ..him $1100.00. A close calculation shows a total cost of seed, fertilizing sowing, reaping and baling to be less than $4.00 per acre. This leaves a net profit of $6.00 per acre. This is not all, as fast as the oats are taken off the land it is planted in corn and .peas. In this way lie get two full crops'or more from the same land this year. It will be remembered that Mr. Wilson gath ered five crops from the same piece of land in 1893. If all would pattern after this method of farming and raise plenty of feed stuffs and less cotton this would be an independent country, indeed. Sunday Behoof Class Picnic. Miss Mamie Morgan's S. S. class, together with a number of invited guests, picnicked at Poor Kobin Springs last Saturday, Fishing, boat riding and bathing were the principle pastimes of the day. One of the party, a gentleman, immortal ized himself by jumping into the spring with so much force as to shiver a rock near the bottom of the spring. The only damage that was done was to the rock and to the spring, the shivered portion of the rock rolled into the mouth of the spring and prevented it from boiling any more. It didn’t hurt the young mans head. Late in the afternoon the party embarked the steamer City of llawkiusville and took a run a few miles down the river. On the way down the boat lodged on two or three logs consuming some time in getting itself clear. This and sever al other little happenings along the way went far toward making the trip an eventful as well us a delightful one. The Protracted Meeting.
