Fair Play Locals.

Fair Play, Oct. 2.-The death an gel has
again visited our community and taken
from the home of F. NJ. Davis loving
vile and mother. Mrs. Davis was Miss
Jane Marett, daughter of Andrew and
| Nancy Marett. deceased. She was born
April 4. 1913, joined the church at
Beaverdam at the early age of II, and
was baptized by the late Rev. Samuel
Isbell. who also performed the marriage
ceremony which united her to Frederick
NJ. Davis on December %, 1870 From
this union issued nine children-seven
sons and two daughters, two of the sons
dying in infancy. Those living are Cray
ton, Clifton, Walter, Cornelius, Mrs. Sa-
vada Davis, Mrs. Beulah Isbell and Miles.
Mrs. Davis was a great sufferer in her
last days, having had several strokes of
| paralysis. But like true Christian, she
was never heard to murmer or complain.
Now there is night of peaceful rest for
the frail body. but the resurrection morn
will soon bring that to an everlasting
end. While for number of years too
feeble to attend the services of the
church regularly, she ever manifested a
keen interest in religious services, and
she has instilled into the hearts of those
left behind n comforting hope that she is
at rest. She sleeps the sleep that knows
no waking The wintry winds may sing
lonely requiem around her silent tomb,
yet she heedS them not Weep not, kind
friends, for your loss is her gain. On
the afternoon of September 15 her body
was laid to rest in the Beaverdam ceme-

THE VALUE OF

WHFNrrigatioo prevails agriculture knows three admirable
" conditions, certainty, abundance, and variety. These
three distinguish the reclaimed tract as a wealth producer from
that which relies for its moisture upon the accidental and capri
cous gift of the sky.
There is a certainty as to the time and season of seed time
and harvest.
Growth being as much at the command of the cultivator as
any other feature OF his work, he arranges it to suit his con
venience and the needs of his crop. The grain, the grasses and
and IN Just such quantities as viii most promote growth and
assure the largest return. There is no more guesswork in the
routine of the farm. Abundance is assured because tie lands
reclaimed by irrigation ART invaribly of = higher quality OF
fertility than the best elsewhere known Rich in all the elements
required by plant life, which have not been leached out by cen.
turtles of drenching, but are carefully embalmed in the very sur.
face layer, they yield their products in extraordinary wealth
Grain yields OF sixty and eighty bushels are not uncommon.
Alfalfa produces from seven TO ten tons of hay per acre, while the
returns from fruit orchards, to which the larger portion of re-
claimed lands has thus far been devoted, may range from two to
i've hundred times that much or more.
Variety may be secured at will, because irrigated land is OF
such intrinsie quality and lies for the most part in a climate so
.benShant that all the products of temperate and semi tropical
countries may be brought forth with success. With much as
sured and with accidents banished, that being misfortune to
farmers elsewhere, the occupant of irrigated land has reasonable
assurance of success i'll his calling.

Tortured Serv,an Soldiers.

VIENNA, Jan. ia trial just con-
cluded at Belgrade has brought to light
hideous forms of punishment practised
habitually upon clumsy Servian con-
scripts. Dashing a pail of boiling
water over the feet is a favorite meth
cd of instruction A sergeant by
name of Georgevics admitted that he
had meted out this torture for years.
1t was proved that bastinado on the
soles of the feet is inflicted nearly
every week. Some soldiers have had
their toenails torn off; the arms of
others are run through with meat
skewers, while some unfortunate
wretches are kept for lengthy periods
suspended by their feet
As a. result of this excessive cruelty
assertions are an everyday occurrence,
and sometimes whole companies cross
the border into Macedonia or Bulgaria.
