As will be seen from a card from
Major J. H Counts, published else-
where, that it has been
advisable to postpone the good roads
meeting which was announced to
take place on August lst, until the
20 h of that month. The only reason
assigned for the change of dates is
that Senator Tlllmar,. who has be,n
Invited, could not be present on the
day first set for the meeting. We
are OF the opinion that the change in
dates is illadvised and a mistake.
However desirable it might be to
have Senator Tillman with US and to
get the benefit of his experience and
advice, yet the question is fraught
with such tremendous issues affect
ing the interest of the county that it
is almost fatal, to postpone the dis
cussion Of good roads longer. The
time for delay has passed and the
time for action has come and al tie
grave responsibilities Of advs need
and enlightened citizenship are press

dltions coofront us to day, we either
have to improve our roads or lie
wiped from the map as a county,

Judson Hall took the gun, and, ex-
amining it, said it was not loaded, so
he says. 10 some wsy Edwards
gained possession of it and ran across
the fields unmolested because his op-
ponent was physically exhausted.
Thursday about l a. m. a posse in
search of George Edwards went to
the house of Dennis Head, in Aiken
c,uotv, known pal of Edwards, snd,
Up ID being refused admittance, broke
open the door and dragged out
Dennis and a negro boy about Is
years of age. The negroes were told
that no harm was intended and if
they would keep quiet the white men
would search the house and leave
them alone. As precaution against
treschery, Head was bound and
placed in buggy. Head asked the
men to let the boy bring out his
clothes 30 that be could dress. The
men allowed the boy to go into the
house to get the clothes and when be
came back they told him to toss the
bundle to Head in the buggy. The
boy did 80, and the bundle struck the
wheel and revolver fell out. Az
soon as the boy saw that his plan had
miscarried he ran. The men then
killed Head, who had tumbled out of

his pistol on the ground.

Willie Hall Killed.

A deplorable tragedy occurred in
this county last Thursday, near Chin
quepin creek, which is the line which
separates Lexington from Aiken
county, in which one white man,
Willie Hall, lost bis life and his
brother, Judson Hall was severely
beaten by surley and saucy negro
named George Edwards. As a direct
sequence of this murder spothar ne
gro named Dennis Head was slain by
parties unknown. The scene of these
tragadies, which followed each other
in quick succession was in a
very sparsely settled portion Of
Aiken and Lexington counties,
near the dividing line. AS is, usual
with crimes of tais character, there
are many accounts of the unfortunate
affair and many rumors are sfoat,
many of which are founded on mere
opinion and unfounded by the facts
in the case, while others ba7e just
enough of the element of truth in
them to give them credence But,
however, the main facts agree to the
following: Willie Hall, white man,
kept store in Aiken county, just
across the Lexington ine; he was
also postmaster. George Edwards is
a violent, turbulent negro, and has
figured in several difficulties, with
white people theresbouts. He and
young Hall, had some words on a
previous occasion about some store
account and were not on friendly
terms. Hall bad repeatedly warned
Edwards to stay away from his store:
that he did not care to have him come
on his premises. On Wednesday,
the fatal afternoon, Edwards went to
Halls store armed with q shot gnu,
and requested Willie Hall to exchsne
some tobacco tags, which he had for
some article suitable for present
Hall said: ''you have got that gun
for me-" The negro made some i'm
pudens reply and going our OF the
store, halted on the bridge which
spans Chinquepin creek, and fred bis
gun in the air. he then left that
vicinity, coming o7.r into Lexington
county and went to house occupied
by negroes, distanced from the store
about three quarters of mile, Willie
Hall had ample pre vocation on seve-
raj previous occasions to chastise
Edwards bat desistei for the sake OF
peace. On this afterooon, however
he concluded that forbealaoee had
ceased to be vtr u and it was time
for him to use drastic methods to
secure peace and safety for himself

There is no more trouble in Matching
turkey eggs in incubators than other
eggs, but up to this time little success
ers. Neither pheasant nor turkey
chicks seem to do as well in breeders
as with hens. We hear of some doing
well with turkeys in Breeders, but we
have not up to this time met with any
one who felt warranted in continuing
the brooder method for poults.
The young turkeys probably do as
we'll in brooders as young chicks up to
a certain age, but after ten days or two
weeks they will feel the demand for
more natural conditions. Most of those
that we have known to try the poults
in breeders have put few of them in
brooder with young chicks. Young
chicks and young turkeys never do well
together. With hens, if in the same
brood with the same mother, they fare
badly. When running together with
separate mothers they do not do so
well as when kept well apart If
young turkeys alone were put into
brooders they might dc. better than we
think they would, but I. should not adj
wise risking TOO many, and as soon as
the turkeys In the brooder are large
enough to run about get them on the
ground part Of each day.
Young turkeys do better the nearer
to their natural state they are raised.
Coddling and too much care of an IN
natural kind count against them. They
must be kept clean, dry, comfortable,
and allowed as much liberty as the
weather viii permit. After six weeks
of age they should have almost abso-
lutte freedom.-Cor. Country Gentle

Timely work.

Now is good time to trim up fence
rows and to burn the brush piles in or
der to destroy the breeding places OF
rabbits, insects and weeds.
Cuttings of gooseberries and currants
may be taken. Use only the wood OF
the current years growth, making the
cuttings about foot long Strip off
the leaves if they have not already
fallen, tie the cuttings in large bundles
and bury them in cold cellar or in a
sandy, well drained knoll, OF If the
cutting bed is well prepared and well
drained they may be planted immedi-
ately, the bed being well mulched upon
the approach of winter.
September and October are good
months in which to set orchards, pro-
vided the ground is well prepared and
well drained and is not too much ex-
posed to sweeping winds. Wet lands
should never be set in the fall, and
such lands are not fit for orchards.
Strawberries may still be set; also
bush fruits.

RAISING YOUNG PoULTs.
How to Feed and Care For Baby
Turkeys.

How to Feed and Care For Baby
Turkeys.
The feeding of young turkeys and
will give my methods:
In the first place I take them from
the nest as soon as hatched. as there is
danger of their being trampled to
death by the mother hen. l either
wrap them in flannel and put them by
the kitchen fire or heat a brooder till it
is from 50 to 100 degrees under the
hover and tuck them away to dry at
their leisure. The main thing is to fur
nish sufficient heat without drafts for
the wee babies making their first essay
into a new and untried existence.
leave the last one or two under the
ben, so she will accept the whole brood
later on. When all are thoroughly
dried they may be given to the mother.
Some sort of a pen or coop should be
provided, roomy enough for the mother
and poults to be confined in rainy
weather. A triangular run of boards
twelve inches high should be placed
in front where the poults can run on
sunny days. The mother will not leave
them, and when they can fly over this
Enclosure they are strong enough to go
about with the hen. The coop should
be shut at night to keep out providers,
and also to keep the little turkeys from
going into the wet grass in the morn
ing. The pen should be moved to a
fresh place quite often to insure clean
liness Another method is to build a
rail pen, with boards around the sides
to keep the slippery little fellows in.
Boards, overlapping to shed rain, cover
the top. The trouble with this ar
rangement is the amount of work in
volyed in tearing it down and building
it up in another spot often enough to
insure the health of the poults. A large
store box may be utilized for the coop
in the method first spoken of, and it
can easily be changed from place to
place as necessity arises
To this coop or pen the mother tur-
key may be taught to bring her brood
at night This is easily done by al
ways feeding them when they come up.
They should be shut in, so that they
can be kept housed until the grass is
d, and when it rains keep them in
Il entire day. This care should be
continued until they are six weeks old.

way, provided one is not prepared to
adopt the plan of the second cut, max

favorable comments are made by our
friends on these silo plans, but they
fear the expense and seek something
cheaper than the stable about the silo
All are agreeing on the matter of
more protection from cold, especially
those who have small silos of the stave

extra bill of expense for the supposed
necessary way to climb up the silo and

such cases room has been accessible in

is now we do well to carefully consider
our plans before we begin work. An
