Fine Wheat,
F Mr W, L. Reagin, who lives,
about one and:# hail miles from
this place, brought to our office
last Saturday two iinp stalks of
wheat, which he had taken from
his oat field. (me stalk was the
beared variety, and coutajned 85
well matured heads, and the
other was the common red; wheat
with 25 heads.
This demonstrates the fact
that wheat can be grown suc
cessfully in this section of the
country. This wheat had no
fertilizer under it at all, and we
dare say, it is as sing as you will
see in middle or north Gecrgla.
Sow wheat, farmers, so wheat.
And less we forget it, sow some
velvet beans also. This ig the
best forage in the world.
| The farmers of this county
could be the most independent
people in, the world, if they only
would be. But, you will never
be ingepéndent solong as you
plant moxe co‘gtox;, than you do
corn, wheat, sweet-potatoes and
sugarcane. Let these last arti
cles be your main crop, and your
cotton your surplus crop, then
you will have money to deposit
each fall in the bank, instead of
many of you,being forged to re
pew notes.
Closing Exercises. !
" The latter part of last week
was, indeed « busy time with
both teachers and pupils of eur
public school. Theclosing exer
cises began on Thursday night,
with the first, second and thied
grades. The little fellows de
monstrated that they had been
well trained sos this occusion, and
did exceedingly well in perform
ing theii respective parts.
Friday night the fourth, fifth
and sixth grades entertained the
large audience presence. The
music—both vocal and instrimen
tal—was very fine, and we think
that every one present enjoyed it
very much from the way they
cheered thé performers. j
On Saturday night the pupils
of Prof. Bennett’s yoom occupied
the stage. These were of the
eight, nineth #nd tenth grades.
They had on for the night a gen
vine play, entitled A Suit for
B
While we were inable toattend
this last performance, we have
heard notfilhg but words' of
praise for thos¢ who took part
in this play. | w
The building was packed every
night. ‘lhe closing exercises of
our public school was a grand
auccess in every particular, and
teachers and pupils are to be
highly complimented upon giving
the pattons, and the public at
large, such excellent perform
ances.
