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.

Mrs. Rainey was bom and raised in Houston county, daughter of Mr. Isaac Taylor, in the upper fifth dis trict, and death brings sorrow to many friends in this county* who sincerely sympathize with the be reaved husband and children. A terrible flood of rain devasta ted a large section of country in 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. by spobt. We guess the outside world thinks Hollinshead dead, but she has only been asleep, and now having woke up refreshed, will tell you'of our do ings. 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.

Several hundred cattle were stifled in the stock yards and on trains. At Dubuque, Iowa. St. Joseph, Mo., and other points in Missouri, the heat was equally in tense. Gen. Cailles, the most formidable Filipino commander since the cap ture of Aguinaldo, surrendered at Santa Cruz last Monday with 650 men an 500 rifles. General Sumner was in command of the U. S. troops.
