Senator McLaubin, of South
Carolina, is the toast of the poli
tician.f just now. He has recent¬
ly come out best man by about
12,000 votes in a triangular pri¬
mary for his seat in congress.
Irby and Evans were each in one
of the angles, and it seems that
they wfre literally cornered.
The southern part of the Gulf
states are all but panic stricken
over a death from yellow fever in
New Orleans. The fever came
from-Ocean Springs, Miss., and a
rigid quarantine has been institut¬
ed in the towns along the coast.
It is fortunate that this dread dis¬
ease has delayed its appearance
until late in the hot season, for it

any system that will give us good
roads. Nothing else will add so
much to the advancement of civil¬
ization, and the want of easy
passage over the county will re¬
tard her progress more than any¬
thing else. Examples of each are
found in Rome and Mexico. Rome
would never have been more than
a petty kingdom had she not real¬
ized the importance of ready com¬
munication. She started at the
base of the hill ou which her cap
itol stood, aud in all needful di¬
rections built highways to the ut¬
most bounds of her empire. The
Via Flaminia led to the north,
the Via Latina to the south, Via
Appia to the northeast, aud mauy
others. These great roads were
extended through every country
she conquered until they become
the mighty arms of Rome that
grasped in their embrace the en¬
tire world, as it was then known.
Many of them remain until this
day as valuable turnpikes in Aus¬
tria, Switzerland, France, Germa¬
ny, Spain and the countries of
Western Asia.
Mexico, on the other haud, un¬
til recent years, remained in a
very rude state of civilization
simply because she had no means
of communication. She has some
railroads now, but they cannot
take the place dirt roads. The
paths over which the pack animals
havd traveled for centuries have
worn down until the rider can
scarcely be seen above the gully.
These fijl with water aud travel is
necessarily very slow, and that
country will ever remain where
' she is until her roads are improved.
In view of these facts does it
not behoove us in this day of en¬
lightenment, to consider carefully
what heathen Rome could appre¬
ciate more than 2,000 years ago?
Distance is measured by the ef¬
fort required to cover it. If our
--roads are good our buggies, wag¬
ons and carts will last much long¬
er; our horses and mules live a
longer time, and business trans¬
acted with ease and facility.
Twenty miles will be reduced to
twelve, twelve to eight, *iglit to
three, and then you are in towu.

"Yellow*” In Peach Tree..
Question. — Is there any renjedy
known for the '"yellows” in peach trees?
Answer.—V ery many efforts have
been made to cure this apparently mys¬
terious and most destructive disease,
but all without avail. Even the cause
of the disease has not yet been deter¬
mined with certainty. We do know
that it is highly contagions, and liable
to attack the most vigorous trees of any
age, especially when in bloom. It is
also kno wn to be hereditary. The only
plan so far used successfully for fighting
this disease is to cut down and burn the
tree, root and branch. By this beroio
treatment the disease may at least be
held in check. Good care and thorough
cultivation appear to render the trees
less liable to attack, though they by no
means secure immunity from it. This
disease is very common is the orchards
qf the east and north, bnt as has
done but little ba#m in Georgia. Want

SATING THE CORN CROP.
We cannot believe that farmers will
persist in wasting such a large part of
their corn orop, as has been the univer¬

they are cornstalks convinced is that the alleged fan¬
value of no "fake” or
ciful picture of impractical "book farm¬
ers,” but a simple, clear fact, which has
been abuudantly proven. and "Seeing is
believing,” however, each man can
prove for hi-iself whether it be true or
false. Even at the far south, where the
climate would seem a serious drawback,
the plan of cutting down and curing
the whole stalk i*s been tried most sue
cessfuily. Let each man at the south
but experiment in this matter with a
few rows of his corn crop and fhe

the stalks should be-cut off quite close
to the ground. A man with a sharp hoe
can Boon learn to cut four or five acres
in the morning. The stalks should not
be allowed to lie on the ground over
night, as the heavy dews usual at this

160 to 200. or even 800 stalks, according
to size, may be safely put in eaoh shock.
The shocks should be allowed to stand
in the field until perfectly cured—any
where from three to six weeks. As Boon

they are needed into half inch lengths,

bad much experience in shocking and
saving his corn crop, says it will facili¬
tate tne work if the following of scantling plan 1x5 is
adopted: Take a piece Sharpen at
