A man who planted the locust for a

The sympathy which exists in bird
life is confined almost wholly to those
of their own kind. We notice that
when a cat or hawk or snake menaces
brood Of young robins none save
robins comes in response to the call for
help; it is the same way with catbirds,
bluejays, crows and sparrows.

Abundant moisture during the sea-

Just as does lack Of it, cyclonic

constant work and the clover. needs

Altogether there are about 250 buff
faloes left in the whole of the United
States. While these, which are nearly
all in captivity and partially domesti-
Gated, will breed to some extent, the
greatest care will have to be exercised
or the bovine which once could be
counted by millions will become utter

Thousands of farmers during the
past four years have changed from
farmers into bankers-that is, they
have their savings (no small sums
either) invested in the stocks of their
home banks-and they are now able
to see the world from the standpoint of
the capitalist as well as the producer,
and thus they are more conservative
than they were when corn sold for 10
cents q bushel.

The first moving machine which we
ever tried to operate was an old Hus-
sey, along in 1855. This was before
the guard for the cutter bar was in
vented, and the cutting arrangement
was made up of two sickle bars work
ing one over the other just exactly like
a pair of shears. These by striking OBJ
structions would become spread, and
then you can guess the rest. AS a d.
version later in the season we had the
old type of the Mccormick reaper,
hand rake. four horses. and all the old
fellows will recall what a promoter
that was of youthful piety.

Now complaint is coming to us that
fields of barley and oats sown in the
spring on which pound or two Of
rape seed were sown with the grain are
likely to be crop failures for the rea-
son that favorable conditions Of wealth.
er have induced too rank a growth Of
the rape and it will be impossible to
cut, bind and save the crop Of grain.
This condition might have been obvi-
ated by delaying the sowing of the
rape until the small grain was up.

ESSENTIALS IN pAIRYING.

There are two fundamental essen
tials in any sort of dairy business,
which apply with just as much force
to the small one COW dairy as to the
large ones, and these are cleanliness
in milking and the immediate cooling
Of the milk so as to extract the animal
heat from 1t. With either one of these
factors in dairying missing, it matters
not how well all the other details may
be looked after, there will be failure to
secure the best results.

Her Promised Doll.

This is the story they tell of a cum
ming little 5-year-old girl whose nurse
had been promising her all summer a
little coon doll when the family
reached the city, If she would be very
good and obedient. This was a de-
lightful promise and the little girl
was as good as little 5-year-old could
be. Then the family came back to the
city little earlier than usual, and
something interesting happened-a
brand-new baby came to the house.
1t was funny, red-faced little Great
ure. which only a loving mother and
experienced nurse could possibly con-
slider beautiful, but 1t was great
thing for the little girl, who had never
before in her short life seen a real
live baby. There is great surprise
for you," said the nurse, taking the
5-year-old upstairs, where the little
new sister way lying snuggled up un-
der a canopy Of muslin and ribbons.
What do you think Of that?' she
continued, lifting the little girl so that
she could see the funny little face on
the white pillow. And the little girl
was much pleased as anyone had ex-
pected that she would be. She gave
the nurse big hug as she cried, 20
nursie, is that my coon doll?"-New

"MIss CHRYsANThEMuMr.
Girl. In Japan and Chin. Named for


Popular Flower.
1t is not at all an unusual thing in
China and Japan to hear a girl called
"Chrysanthemum." 1t is as popular
name as Dorothy or Margaret is here.
When young man calls, he probably
asks whether Miss Chrysanthemun
and Miss Rose are in, quite as natur-
ally as he would on this side Of the
world inquire for Miss Dorothy and
Miss Margaret. A girl named for the
favorite flower OF Japan in that coun-
try is said to adopt that flower as her
especial one for the decoration Of her
dress, for wearing in her hair, and for
Hover gifts when she makes them
Not only does she devote herself to the
chrysanthemum alone, but to that par
ticular shaped and colored one that
especially suits her style. The chrys-
anthemum has SO much individuality
that, in the eyes Of tho artists Japa-
nese maiden 1t would clash most dis
cordantly with the rest of the ensemble
II 1t didn't just suit her type. Dark,
soft shades Of red and deep yellows
are naturally great favorites with the
dark beauties Of the East. Such chrys-
anthemums as we know as the Mrs
Pullman" and the "A. ]. Drexel," dark
yellow and dark red, are more popular
in Chrysanthemum Land than the
wonderful white ivories, such as Tim
othy Eaton or delicate pink "Vivian
Morrell." both 80 popular with fair
haired girls here. 1t is said that no
one knows better than the Japanese
girl that light touch Of adjacent COL
or brings out the color in the COM
plexion better than a mass of deep
color would. Dull pink chrysanthe-
NUNS. that are neither pink nor red,
have the effect of toning up the color
in dark compilations better than clear
pink or decided red would do it. Miss
Chrysanthemum goes into the culi-
nary art also with her flower. She
serves her guests with a tea or bev-
erage made Of its boiled petals, called
"saki. and concocts 4 delicious salad
OF the flowers. From tea to an order
OF chivalry is big jump. But it is
said that SO high place of honor and
Importance does the chrysanthemum
hold in Japan. that simple variety
OF this flower conventionalized is used
as the official seal and crest of the
Emperor. and that the highest order

''rhe people of Orangeburg pull to-
gether. And pulling together is re-
warded with success" These two
constitute the opening sentences of the
report of the fall festival in progress
this week at Orangeburg by the cor
respondent of the State newspaper.
They are simple sentences, but they
contain truth which cannot be too
strongly impressed upon any commu-
nifty. ltwas our pleasure to be at Orange
burg the day this report was sent in
and we can endorse what the cores
pondent says of Orangeburg and the
festival. Not only the men, but the
women, too, were working together, and
had spent their time and their money to
make the affair success and they are
now realizing the fruits of their labor.
The mayor is live and progressive
citizen and SO is the chairman of the
chamber of commerce. They are pub
lie spirited and are willing to do some
thing for their town and their commu-
nifty even if they do not see dollars
dropping back into their pockets imme-
diately as a result of their labors. In
other words they are willing to do
something for the general welfare and
to reap their reward in the general
good which comes to their town and
their community, and by such acts
on the part of public spirited men, and
hope to keep up with the procession
and be in reality progressive town.
EtWe have observed a good many towns
and our conclusion is that as rule a
town keeps pace with the march of
progress in the same proportion as it's
mayor and city authorities are rrogres-
sivc and public spirited. 1t sometimes
happens that town will go ahead i'm
spite of the heads of the town, but that
is the exception.
1t was inspiring to see how the mayor
and the chairman Of the chamber of
commerce worked together at Orange
burg and how the citizens co-operated
with them. The floral parade was one
OF the prettiest we ever saw and the
city was overwhelmed with visitors.
The point we desire to make is that
no town can prosper and grow unless
all the heads of departments and organ
lzatlons work together for its advance
mcnt and then they must have the CO.
operation and support of the people.
There should be business rivalry and
competition, but there should be no
Jealousy and selfishness. We have to
work for the public good sometimes
and get our compensation indirectly by
helping the whole community.
No man has right to take or accent
position of trust in town if he is
gong to be constantly a stumbling
block to the progress and prosperity of
the town and the community.
We want to see Newberry pull TO"
gcther and work for the advancement
of the community We have been
moving along very nicely and have sew
eral manufacturing establishments and
all doing well but we do need a little
more cooperation.
