Much 'Grippe and Severe Colds
Farmers are Getting Busy
Wltfr Their CropV-On Ihe Farm
K now and Years Ago A . Delev-
fog Into the tast News Items.
Correspondence of Th RobetnUo,
I hear on all sides complaints
of Grippe and severe colds; near
ly every, family in tho neighbor
hood is 'suffering more or less
from these causes; ' . ,
Col. E. Fi McRae, called by
few moments yesterday on his
way home from Maxton, and. we
were sorry to learn that he, too,
had a case of Grippe, and had
been detained from home several
days on this account He is im
proving,and we hope will soon be
quite well again, but it is an , in
sidious disease, and ready, at
the least imprudence to attack
the patient again and again. ,
. The Col's friends are glad to
see him back again; as he is one
who is missed greatly by the
whole community. .
The farms are beginning to
assume an air or activity, and
the farmers seem to be very well
up with thejr work as a general
thing, small grain is looking well,
and I see, away out on the plan
tations, patches here arid there
larrayed in living green," which
make a cheerful break in the
monotony of the brown and bar
ren land-scape.
In seeing the use of the many
modern and improved farming
implements of the present day,
and compare them withthelimit-
ed quantity and quality of those
used forty years ago.; I wonder
ho 77 our fore-fathers managed to
get along at all,I remember when
every plow, was made in the
"Smithy' and the stocks manu-
actured onthe farm.?Thfe"ot-J
ars for the horses were made ot
shucks.and were the H?htest,attd
most comfortable collars I have
ever see'n,one of these, well made
would last throughout a working
seasop, and the market value
was 25 cents a piece. Some in
genuity was required in the
manufacture of them, and only
certain negroes on the planta
tions could make them, so these
dextrous ones had a kind of mon
opoly on this branch of trade.
They would keep busy at night
during the week, and on Satur
day night would take the fruits
of their labors and peddle them
around on the farms, which could
not furnish a collar maker.
Even the plow lines, acd back
bands were homemade. and I
have spun many a batch o thread
for that pffrpose. I learn to spin
on my mothers little "Scotch
wheel' at which I sat doVn, and
osed.my feet on a pedals turning
the machinery in a manner am
liar to the sewing machine though
J had never seen a sewing ma
chine at that time. I deariy loved
to spin, and see the snp white
rolls(carded by my dear ibother'a
hands) converted into pretty.
soft, strands Uf thread: and this
industry during the waf was a
most imporan one, for e cloth
ingof white, and colore, on the
old plantations depended upon
the wheels and looms. In those
strenuous days, a pretty, new
homespun dress, warf a much
prized by the Southern girl, as a
silken robe would be iMay, and
there was much friendly rivalrj
in the coloring, , and letting up
of these, our -Sunday best. '

woods and bays in seaich of cer
