Oats anil Oat Meal.
BTP. WYATT AIK EX.
I’erhaps the State of South Caroli-i
na never harvested such a crop of
oats as she will this year. Alter long
experience in the oat sowing, and
continued effort to procure a sort of
oat that would yield a good crop and
be proof against rust or b'ast, our
farmers seem to have at last discov
ered the article in the valuable red
oat, now so extensively grown
throughout the State. VI hat a boon
that little grain has been to the farming
interest of the State, few men can
conceive who have not watched its
introduction and general cultivation
with a sort of experimental interest.
Its presence as a staple crop sug
gests some moral reflections. It has
come in our poverty like a special
jrovidencc. To depend upon grow
ing corn to feed the beasts of burth
en, and so much of the human race
as sojourn on South Carolina soil,
would entail npon our farmers an
endless poverty, and perhaps want
and starvation to plough animals.—
But just in the nick of time comes
’he red oats to save us from indus
trial failure, and to secure for us po
litical independence: for we believe
the truthfulness of the assertion we
heard made not long since by a dis
tinguished lawyer of the back coun
try, that “red oats whipped the fight
in 1870.” For, said he, when the
red shirt, at the proper signal, un
hitched his traces, mountrd his steed
and threw the half bushel sack of
red oats behind him, he meant busi
ness, and business with him meant
political victory. And how many
hundreds, yea thonsands, of such he
roes did we see in 1876? Let their
epitaphs be engraved npon the grate
ful memories of a disenthralled peo
ple.
We heard another man say, (and
he was a practical farmer, and a suc
cessful one, too) that in South Caro
lina we can raise oats at ten cents
per bushel. While we think this
somewhat extravagant, we are pre
pared to believe any man in South
Carolina can grow a bushel of oats
almost as cheaply as he can a peck
of corn, and wc again assert, as we
have often asserted before, that three
bushels of oats are equal to ten bush
els of corn in maintaining plough ani
Dials. The . why is it that we d<
not export oats from South Carolina
no one can tell, except that the far
mers have not yet become weaned
off from their policies.
But we have said that we arc
growing this year an immense croi
of oats. Then ihe next question is.
what will we do with them when
harvested and threshed? Will we
glut the market and almost give
them away, as ,we have done occa.
sionallv heretofore ? We hope not.—
If properly fed to any and all kinds
of animals they can be made to pay
better than by selling them upon a
crowded market.
A fine market might be opened
even for home consumption if our
millers would introduce the proper
machinery for grinding them. Our
farmers and the negroes in the conn
try would laugh at any man who
would advise them to eat their own
oats, and yet there is nothing more
wholesome; and today there are
men in South Carolina who eat, as a
portion of their daily food, oatmeal
porridge, but send all the way to Bal
timore cr New York to get the oat
meal out of which it is made. There
can be little doubt but that if boiled
oatmeal were to become a prevailing
breakfast and supper dish, we would
require more raiik, 3nd this would
require more cattle, and more cattle
means more fresh meat, and more
fresh meat means less bacon. and
less bacon means better general
health, and bet‘ft health more hap.
piness. So just cee what might fol
low eating oatmeal.
We clip the fallowing ftr>m a
Northern exchange:
“Fur the past f-.rty years, 53 ' $ an
Englishman, I have my breakfast off
a piut of oatmed porridge, with
very rare exceptions, and nothing
else, fasting f.>r four hour? if erward j
If, however, I take any oth<r form of j
breakfast, I find myself vrrr hungrv \
before the next meal, which is never!
the case when 1 hare had rrv por
ridge. I feel assured it' workingmen
and their families would but take a
basin of oatmeal and mlk porridge
night and morning, with such other
food as they can procure in the intere
val, we would have a hea’thier race
of men and women than now exists.
A few years ago I had a Devonshir
girl living with me as a servant. The
girl was w lling enough to work, but
had not the s amina to perform it.—
This I found, on questioning her,
arose from the deficient and ill ad
vised diet on which she had been
reared. Sl-.e shortly began to take
her porridge night and morning, and
this, with a daily mid-day meal ot
of mea', enabled her to perform her
duties with ease. It is surprising
how much nutrition is contained in
this cheap, wholesome food."
Oats do not con'ain a great deal
of posphatic matter, and therefore
are not commended as a bone-pro
ducing food, but inasmuch as almost
ail the food we eat supplies the nec
essary phosphates for the growth of
the skeleton, there is more necessity
to have our diet composed of such
substances as produce flesh, fat and
muscles, and oats contain a supera
bundance of these elements.
Travel where we will north of the
Potomac or Ohio, and we find oat
meal and milk, or sugar a favorite
breakfast dish. The grains of oats
are ground sufficiently' to rub off the
bran, and perhaps crack the grain.—
Incondition they are boiled and eaten
like hominy with milk or sugar. We
hope our farmers will test the palata
bleness of this dish during the sum
mer and let us hear from them. It
is anew dish to most of them, but it
it proves to be'wholesome and palata
ble, why should it not be introduced
here as it has been elsewhere ?
We clip the followidg from anoth
er exchange:
“Oatmeal, now found on almost
every gentleman's breakfast table,
was, a few yeaes ago, used exclusive
ly by the Scotch and Irish. I)r.
Johnson, who, in his hatred of the
Scotch, lost no opportunity of saying
a bitter word against them, defined
oats as in Scotland food for Scoth
mcn; but in England food for hors
es.”
“Yes," answered an indignant
Scotchmen, “where can you find such
men as in Scotland; or such horses
as in England?”
AVe have heard of a shrewd old
Scotch mother who used to make her
family cat oatmeal first, saving:
“The brain who eats the most por
ritch will get the most meat after it.”
But the brain who grained the prize
always found himself too full to enjoy
the meat.
It is mentioned in a most charm
ing hook, “The Life and Letters of
Lord Macaulay,” that Carlyle, catch
ug a sight of Macaulay’s face in re
pose, remarked, “Well, any one can
see that you are an honest, good
sort of a fellow, made out of oat
meal.”
If oatmeal can “make” such men as
Wal'er Scott. Dr. Chalmers and Lord
Macaulay, we may well heap high
the porridge dish, and bribe our chil
dren to eat of it. One thing we do
know, that it is far better for the
blood and brain than cake, confec
tions, and tho scores of delicacies on
which many pale little pet are fed by
their foolishly fond mothers.
“The Queen’s Own,” a regiment of
almost giants, recruited from the
Scottish Highlands, are, as Carlyle
sa ; d of Macauly, “made of the oat
meal." So buys who want height,
and brealth, and muscle, and gills
who want rosy cheeks arid physical
vigor, should turn fr- tn hot bread
and other ind;gestibies, to this food j
for “Scotchmenand horses.”— Chatks- j

A Responsive Chord. •
Rev J William Jcces, in an address
before the National Sunday School
Convention, Atlanta, Georgia, related
the following incident:
“Iu the early spring of 1562, when
the Confederate and Federal arnaie g
were confronting each other on the
opposite hills of Stafford and Spottsyl
vauia, two bands chanced on even
ing, at the came hour, to begin to dis
course sweet music on either bauk of
the river. A large crowd of the sol
diers of both armies gaihored tolis’en
to the music, the friendly pickets not
interfering and soon the ban-la began
to auswer each other First, the
oar.d on the northern hank weuld
jhy “Star Spangled B.nner," “Rail
Columbia,”'' or gome other national
air, and at ita conclusion the 'boys in
tW would chetr most lustily. And
hia the band on the Southern bauk
would regpend with ‘ Dixie.' or Bou
nie Blue Flag,” or some other South
ern melody, and the ‘boys in gtay,
would attest their approbation with an
‘old Confederate yell.” But present
ly one of the hands struck tip, ui
sweet aod p'aintive notes which were
wafted across the beautiful Rappah
annock, and were caught up at once
by the other band and swelled into a
grand anthem which touched every
heat f, “Home, Sweet Home!” At
tlie cone!usisn of this piece there went
up a simultaneous shout from both
sides of the river- cheer followed
cheer, and these hills, which lad so
recently resounded With hostile guns,
eclueil and re-echoed the glad ac
claim. A chord had linen struck re
sponsive to w Lioh the hearts of ene
mies—then—could oeat in unison;
and, on both sides of the river,

GROCERS.
IT IS POOR POLICY
For any retail merchant to sell Inferior
goods because lie can make
more money on them.
Instead of trying to find the cheapast
that can bo bought, he should always
select TUII BEST In the market.
We know of no business anywhere, in the
city or country, that would not sooner become
permanently established, and in the long run
pay better, by handling only fair and honest
goods. To be sure, custom may for a while
be allured by low prices into the purchase
of iuferior and adulterated articles; many
even tako up with short weight and other
swindling; but time rights all these
things, and nothing is more certain than that
HONESTY SS THE BEST POLiCY
MET DO BUSINESS
TO MAKE MONEY!
The surest way to accomplish this is to
bui.d up a permanent trade.
This can it te nil; toe
if inferior pals are si.
Tt is only by keeping the Vest r.rlklts of their
kind, even if they do not pry tha largest
tiniiu/fuan, profit, that a permanent business
is buiit up. Keep the best soup, the best
starch, the best spices, the best baking powder,
and so on through the whole list. We have
known a grocer to lose a customer whose
trade was worth a hundred and fifty dollars
a year clear profit to him, ju t because ho
would not supply a baking powder that was
demanded by the best trade.

tho ladies of Georgia where Bea Foam has
been introduced, are noted for making better
bread, biscuit, corn cakes, and other cookery
than can bo found anywhere else, and they
give Sea Foam the credit, and won’t use au/
other baking preparation. And it is not to be
wondered ct, either, for Sea Foam
NEVER FAILS

Mora than half the complaints of bad Gour
