A wet spring followed by a dry sum-
mer almost always brings fruitful
year. The damage wrought by a dry
spring is hard to overcome.
Where one has large clover field 1t
is almost imperative that some Of it
must be cut before it is just right in
order to save the last of it in good
4 shape. There are only about three
days when the clover is just right to
e cut and that is when three-fourths Of
the blossoms have turned brown.

The birds and the milliners and the

The man who is not a horseman in a

The plant food in the soil is taken
by the plant or tree by absorption, the
tiny rootlets. which are the mouths of
the plant, sucking their food from the
soil; hence the necessity of so prepar-
ing the soil that the plant may readily
obtain it's food. AS well expect a baby
I. to thrive by feeding it crusts Of bread
and tough meats as to expect plant
to do well with nothing but sclods to
4 feed on.
A friend Of ours owning large farm
has taken the trouble to so smooth
down the highways bordering his farm
that he can run mower over the sides
Of the roadway as easily as he can in
his adjoining meadow. The result Is
that he gets about three tons Of fine
hay-blue grass and clover-about the
middle Of June and does for his farm
what a nice lady does when she puts
, on her collar and ribbons and natty
white apron
It all depends upon the point of view.

DEATH OF REV HENRY G GILLANo
Remains Brought to this County and
inferred at lndiantown.

A telegram conveying the sad tid-
ings of the death of Rev Henry G
Gilland was received by his relatives
here last Saturday. Mr. Gillaud was
born at Blackstock, S c February 8,
1851, and his death occurred at Adir-
ondsck, Warren County, New York,
on Friday. September 25, 1908.
His boyhood was spent at Indiantown
his father being pastor of Indian
town Presbyterian church from 1858
to 1868. Mr. Gilland was graduate
of Southwestern Presbyterian Uni
versity, Clarksville, Tenn., and the
Columbia, sc Theological Seminary.
Was pastor of Indiantown church
from 1881 to 1886, and of Indian
town, Williamsburg and Central
churches from 1886 to 1889. From
1886 to 1892 he was in charge of
Poplar Tent church, Mecklenburg
Presbytery, North Carolina, and
from 1892 to 1898, he was pastor of
the Presbyterian church at Su nmer-
vile, S c, when on account of ill
health he was forced to give up his
active ministerial work and went
North in the hope of recovery. He
leaves a wife and a little boy Of nine
years, living at Newark, N. j., an
aged mother, and one brother,
Hon Thomas NJ Gilland. of our town.
besides a large number of other rel
atives and friends in this county.
The remains were brought South

patient, and as to his mental condl-
tion, it beng developed that the de-
ceased was in clear mental condl-
tion up to the time of his death.
James A Hoyt, assistant editor of
the newspaper, was put on the wit
ness stand, and when he was about
to give the ante-mortem statement OF
Gonzales defendants attorneys OBJ
jected, and a long exhaustive legal
argument was entered upon as to
whether it should be admitted. The
question was whether Gonzales had
any hope of recovery after he was
shot; if so his ante-mortem statement
could not be admitted as evidence.
The lawyers argued at great length
whether from the testimony the de-
ceased had hope or not.
All attorneys on either side made
arguments and finally Judge Gary
said that the declaration of the de-
ceased made to Associate Editor
Hoyt was entitled to be admitted as
testimony.
AS the examination of the witness
would likely take up much time, Il
recess was taken until three o'clock.
