The importance of a good military
company Is best realized only when
the necessity for 1t arises. But In Or
der to be available in necessity, the
soldiers have to do lot Of hard work
in the meantime. They should get all
the announcement the general public
is able to give.
captain Hart of the Jasper Light In
fantry desires the members OF the
company to be on hand by at least .
o'clock Monday morning. He has no.
titled them by postal card to assemble
by 6. 80; but 1t has since developed that
Il will be better for the men to assem-
BILE at o'clock.
The Jasper Light Infantry is doing a
lot of hard work, preparatory to going
into encampment next week. Some OF
the boys feel that they are being treat
ed a little unfairly by being required
to 90 to Columbia every year; but II
Is hoped that none Of them Will hold
back on this account. The command
ing officers fully realize the situation,
and will use their influence to have
the next encampment either by the sea
or close to the mountains. In the
meantime there should be full turn
out at Columbia. -
One thing badly needed throughout
this whole country locality In the towns
as well as in the country is more
paint. Our people have been remiss
on this subject. If we should express
the common sentiment we would say
too economical:" but economical Is
not the word. Failure to paint a new
house is wasteful extravaganza. Fall
ure to repaint an old house Is not much
better. Paint improves the looks OF
any building to which 1t Is applied;
but that Is only a secondary consider
alton. A building will last indefinitely
If kept painted, and where painting Is
neglected 1t will go to decay within
few years. There are hundreds or
homes throughout York county that
have never known the paint brush out
side or In. Their owners, In many
cases, think they are unable to paint.
AS matter of fact they are unable
not to paint.
Mr.. John L. Rainey Of Blairsville was
i'm Yorkville yesterday on business and
in conversation with the reporter spoke
appreciatively Of the work OF the
Southern Cotton association In his
township Most Of our people held
their cotton for 10 cents" he said, land
all who held long enough got their
price. Some sold for seven and eight
cents: but there were not many Of
these, and | believe there will be fewer
next year. The feeling is strong down
in our country that cotton Is worth lO
cents, and that a farmer has only to
hold on long enough to get that price

and by the next encampment the bat
talions may be grouped little differ

company Is in one regiment and the
Barnwell company in another; the
Timmonsville, Darlington, Camden and
Sumter companies are in one regiment
and the Florence and Hartsville COM
panies in another and the Cheraw and
Bennettsville companies In still an
other.
