Not the least puzzling dilemma
pertaining to farming is that* which
a town farmer in Houston encoun
tered this season.
He bought half a bushel of extra
prolific cotton seed for his brag
patch; He manured the patch heav
ily with ordinary cotton seed. When
planting time came the fine seed
were drilled in just over the manur
ing seed. For a while there was
much anxiety about the seed com-
ing up. Finally there was a nice
stand of cotton, and it was “chopped
out.” Then more came up, until it
seemed that not only the choice
seed, but those used as manure, were
coming up to make a crop. The di
lemma changed, and to this hour
that anxious farmer doesn’t know
what kind of cotton is growing in
his brag patch.
He has this consolation, however,
the cotton is of fair size, flourishing,
and is comparatively free of grass.
BY THE JUDGE.
Death of Mrs. Henry Rainey.
Hawkinsville Dispatch.
“Mrs. Fannie Rainey, wife of Mr.
H. T. Rainey, died at her home in
this place Sunday afternoon, June
16th, about six o’clock. Mrs. Rai
ney was in her usual good health
until Friday evening last, when she
was seized with a fainting spell and
fell out of a window at her home.
She was hurt internally by the fall,
though it was not thought she was
seriously injured till the next day,
when infiamation set in and quickly
ended her earthly existence in spite
of all thatrcould be done for her by
the attending physicians, Drs. Fred
erick and Jelks. The announce
ment of her death was a great shock
to the community and carried sad-,
ness to the hearts of many friends,
for she was a good woman and held
in high regard by all who knew her.
She was a member of the Methodist
church and it is believed by those
who knew her best that she lived
the life of a true Christian and was
fully prepared to go when the time
came. She leaves a husband, two
daughters and one son, who have
the sympathy of the community in
their bereavement.
“Rev. J. W. Domingos, her pas
tor, conducted the funeral services
at her home at 2:30 o’clock, Monday
afternoon, and the interment follow
ed in Orange Hill cemetery, Rev.
Dr. Simms assisting in the services
at the grave.”
Just now we are having a hot
time in the old town. With grass
by day and mosquitoes by night, we'
are net in a proper frame of mind
to serve the Lord and love our
nieghbors as ourself.
Most of the crops in this section
have had a bad case of the “June
sweat,” but have recovered suffi
ciently to be about.
From observation and hearsay, I
am of the opinion that every pound
of cotton raised in Houston county
this year will cost at least 8 cents,
and probably sell at 6 or 7.
If there is not some improvement
in our labor system,it is only a ques
tion of a few years when cotton as a
leading crop will be abandoned.
The negroes are getting to be a
peculiar people, jealous of bad
works. Education may improve
him as a citizen, (our courts don’t
show it) but it ruins him as a labor
er.
Tea Cozy For Summer Home.
For the summer home nothing is
prettier for the tea cozy than white
linen, which admits of no end of va
riety in decoration. The rose, flow
er-de-luce, cornflower, thistle or
shamrock, according to the nation
ality of the owner, embroidered on
one side, with the. monogram on the
other, is a favorite mode, says the
New York Tribune. Dainty drawn
or lace work or lace insertions may
be let into one side to form square,
triangular or diamond shaped
spaces, in which the monogram may
be worked. A hemstitched or lace
frill may be used on the edge. Hon-
iton lace covers made by their own
ers are favorites. These are used
over cozies of delicate colored sat
ins.
The grain crop has been harvested,
and the most of it threshed. The
yield of wheat is satisfactory. Mr. J.
O. Sandefur reports the best I have
heard of. 240 bushels on 10 acres.
Miss Etta Sandefur has returned
home after an extended visit to her
sister, Mrs. Andrews, at Roberta.
Mrs. G. E. Woodard is visiting
her parents in Macon.

Hollinshead Items.

in Houston county, daughter of Mr.

many friends in this county* who
sincerely sympathize with the be

A terrible flood of rain devasta

West Virginia, the Pocahontas coal
region, last Saturday. Every species
of property in the valley was practi
cally destroyed, rendering thousands
of people homeless. More than a
hundred people were killed. Only
one house was left in the city cf
Keystone. An appeal for aid has
been issued, which can be sent to
the adjutant general at Charleston,
or any bank at Bluefields.

The farmers have about all their
grain threshed and housed, Messrs.
H. F. and B. F. Murray taking the
lead, the former making 105 bushels
of wheat on five acres, and the latter
making 98 bushels from the same
number of acres.
