smt Ul Fields— B ist Crops,
hnve striven for years to con-
I vines our people that the true system
I ^farming in this section is to culti-
I vale only a small “wage, but culti-
|' te t | ia t well, having a diversity of
'• ro ps, etc. In furtherance of this idea
| V e have given the experience of dif
ferent persons right here in Glynn, to
J H1VV . what ft single acre of ground will
vield ill one year’s time. Below we
give 11 few more figures. Wr. Wra.
Turner has gathered and sold this
mouth $50 worth of Irish potatoes
one-quarter acre of ground. Ha
,)„w hits the same in corn, which will,
with fair seasons, yield him six bush
els and will be worth about $6 00. Be
fore that corn is harvested he propos
es planting sweet potatoes on the
same piece of ground. Allowing
t . ur yield, only, he is good for fifty
bushels, which will be worth $25 00
Thus we show a vield of $81.00 from
one-quarter acre of land.
Below we append a few hints from
the pen of that wide-awake farmer of
Pierce county. John If. Shaw, to the
Importer. He is a live farmer, and
whnt he knows, he knows. He says:
From my small experience I find
that small farms are the profitable
ones. I find that our lands are only
a foundation and our fertilizer is the
lever, and if the lever is diligently
managed on that firm foundation we
can prize out of mother earth 100 per
cent profit on the expense of running
the farm each year. Our climate is
so arranged that we ean sow and reap
even .lay in the year, and for health-
fnlness it cannot be surpassed, there-
f..re wi- can afford to make such land
mil b. the supply of artificial means.
\\\. have in our midst thousands of
wild weeds, swamp muck, straw,
leaves, trash of various kinds that we
cau collect together to help out in onr
senni supply of nome-i’uade fertilizers,
ami if mere were as much effort made
in that direction as there is in trying
to secure commercial fertilizers aud
pay fur i hem out of the crop to save
the home from being sold for the
debt, w- would all soon learn to make
better crops, and under much easier
circumstances, live happier ana be
more independent. A farmer who
owes for fertilizers ie compelled to sell
his orup for less than it is worth in
order m raise the money in time to
pay the debt, whereas, if ho owed
nothing ho could store his crop aud
sell when he pleased and to whom he
pleased, and have time to watch the
marl.. ■ mil to attend to the timnage-
mcm ,,f Ids fanning interest without
having Ins mind taxed with frequent
duns and his slumbers disturbed by
dr. . ns of interest, bearing notes, cov
er.d uy a mortgage on all his earthly
possessions. Those are facts not dis
cover-d by me, but facts that have
been printed in books, and published
by you ami other newspaper proprie
tors and editors ever since I can rec
ollect, and up to this time there is not
more Ilian one farmer in every ten
that practices their teachings.
N«»w invention* *.
Our townstiian Iioseudo Torras, be-
sides his other qualifications, is quite
an inventive genius. We were shown
bv linn this week two drawings from
in.- L'ai.-iit office, the one descriptive
,v hie preserver or rntt, mid llie
.liner tiew pendulum scales, mvellt-
<i n. uimsclt. Both are excellent ili-
veniions, and, to our mind, the life
pr.-s. rver or raft is especially so. It
is so arranged as to occupy but little
space when not in Use, but, when
wanted, is easily extended to full
length by turning loose a spiral
spring which is coiled in each cylin
der. The raft, when extended, looks
like the ordinary life raft such as
most steamers carry. Its advantages,
however, are that it can be compressed
into smaller space when not wanted,
aud is provided with vessels for food
and water, one being in each of the
cylinders. We trust Mr. Torras will
realize heavy sales from these new
and useful inventions.

THE FAIR.
Now tha
Fairhasb
ie question of a spring
finally settled and the
committees gone to work in good
earnest, we call upon our citizens,
both white and colored, to respond to
the request of the President for ex
hibits. Remember few pfM&tMr oc
cupy the attention of the public more
than your own town. The eyes of a
very large number are turned on
Brunswick just now, and such being
the case, let us, ns citizens, both of
town and county, show whnt we are
and what we can do. Let county
pride ride over any little piques you
may have because the judges did not
do you justice at some past Fair.—
Those things will happen sometimes.
Let there be a rousing display in veg
etable and market garden line, for, af
ter all, these are what will take the eye
of those seeking a home among us.—
Read over the premium list to Le
found in this issue, and see what you
have to offer. Never mind what oth
er people are going to exhibit—wheth
er you think they can surpass yours
or not, make your own exhibit and
leave the result to the future.
The; officers of the Agricultural So
ciety issue the following address,
which we hope will be heeded:
We announce a portion of the pre
miums and committees to-dav, and
shall complete the list in next issue*
of the Advertises and Appeal. The
public will see that a Fair is deter
mined upon, and now the absorbing
topic will be, shait tbe i Fair be a suc
cess ? This ik for the public—and es-
cially the citizeus of Glynn county
and Brunswick—to say. As far as
the officers, members and committees
of the society are concerned, they will
do their whole duty, and will the pub
lio—the people—come up to the work,
nnd by their cordinl support, in pre
paring exhibits and other methods,
make the Fair of 1882 a glorious suc
cess, reflecting honor and credit upon
our city by the sen. This will be de
cided on the 24th, 25th and 2Cth of
May.

Onr public schools will close on the
12th of May for the summer. The
examination of the classes will occu
py the lust week of the school, during
which lime tin- patrons of Hie school
are invited and expected to visit the
schools and see what progress their
children have made. On Friday
uiglit, the 12th of May, the children
of the white school, aided by their
friends, will give a public entertain
ment at L’arioso Hall, the proceeds
of which will be devoted to the pur
chase of a library for the school. In
view of this particular feature we
trust thnt the hall will on that night
be filled to the very door. Let us eu-

The up-country people are already
beginning *, to come to spend their
summers with us.
St. Simons Mills turned out one
humfria'&yl ! ten -th£&hd
lumber last Wednesday.
Passengers from the interior, com
ing hero to tap ,.tbe main line of
steamers, are highly delighted at our
climate aud sea breezes.
Jim Gould is a success. He has
for several years worn the belt of the
champion hunter, having killed more
deer and wild cats than any man on
the Island. Last year he raised bet
tor, larger and sweeter melons “than
any other man,” and more of them.—
This season he comes to the front
with the largest Irish potatoes, and
more to the acre. The beauty of it is
they are nice, sweet, meally and lus
cious to the taste.
The repairing corps of the sixth
district, United States lighthouse de
partment, have been at St. Simons
light for the past three weeks. With
point and mortar, brick and lumber,
lime, pluck, energy ah4 good .ts^te,
Captain Haynes, in charge, has won
derfully transformed the appearance
of the premises. Messrs. Asbell and
Keaton boast of having the neatest
“light” in ithe district.
“Him foot sharp like de razor," said
Trim Henderson, a well-known negro
man on the Island, as he was return
ing from market not long since, when
he espied what be tbongbt was a crip
pled hawk in the bushes. Trim
thought to capture him, and stepped
cautiously behind him. No sooner
had Trim grabbed him with both
bands than the hawk buried bis claws
in Trim’s hands to full depth. Here
Mr. Darkey was in a dilemma—both
hands fastened. It is said that ne
cessity is the mother of invention,
aud old Trim proved himself equal to
the emergency. In a remarkably
short space he had gnawed off both
feet of the bitwk, thus loosing his
hands. If not a wiser, Trim certaiuly
went home a sadder and sorer man..
The study of the wind is more
suited to a monthly magazine or sci
entific work, Imt we believe the read
ers ol the Advebtiskii and Appeal are
as intelligent a class as any who read
scientific monthlies, and, whilst we
don't intend to lie prolix, we cannot,
see why every thiuking reader would
not like to read about a subject that
interests him as vitally ns the wind.
This study leads us very far into the
wonderful and the beautiful, the
scientists say, uiito the solution of
simple nnd satisfactory laws. This
latter may be so—doubtless it does, or
savants aud meteorologists would not
so uunounce. To the common mind,
however, this is not so clear. For the
present we give one iusiauce. The
scientists say “the wind is never prop
agated in a straight line;” “meeting
the salient points of the earth's sur
face, contact with other masses of air
causes eddies, which perform all soi ls
of gyrutious,” aud hence, “to bo ns
truthless as a weather cock” is Imt
another name for “an unstablo per
son." This all sounds nice on paper,
but it rather strikes ns that if scien
tists would deal less in theory, uud be
more practical, their utterances would
bo more acceptable to the men of
common Beuse. It is onr private
opinion that if a scientist had been so
unfortunate as to hnve been exposed
to the winds sweeping over St. Si
mons on the 8th of October, 1880,
and 27th of August, 1881, or oven the
gale last week, he would have lieen
considered sadly off his meutul bear
ings to have begun to theorize about
eddies, Cyclones, deflections from
straight lines,” etc. When ‘ pipiug
load” the wind was taking a straight
shoot at about forty to sixty knots to
the hour, defying all human power or
rules for its government.
