Valley and especially the new settlers
who have little capital must first seek
to determine what will bring them the
largest returns from Il comparatively
small outlay. The mining interests Of
Nevada afford an excellent market for
all classes OF food stutfs. Such things
as vegetables and poultry products will
command excellent prices, and the aid
vantage in the proximity to the market
will enable Us to compete very successful
ly with outside producers. And further
more-and this is Il very important
factor-the raising of vegetables and the
keeping OF poultry requires a compare
lively small acreage OF cultivated land.
Ten or even five acres OF land put into
good shape and planted to potatoes and
other vegetables would BRING 4 larger

FARMING
Requires Business Skill and
Scientific Ability to
Succeed.
Accurate Accounts Must Be Kept Of
All Profits and Losses.

Farming in America is in a stage OF
transition. Formerly, men were farm
ers because they grew up as farmers
and either lacked the opportunity OF
the aggressiyeness to strike out into
other lines. But more and more each
year young men are taking up
agriculture as a business, a life work
which affords an opportunity for the
exercise Of the greatest business skill
coupled with scientific ability. The
successful agriculturist must be a keen
But these qualities are nc more requisite
than business ability. And by bust
ness ability is not meant ability to beat
the other fellow in a horse trade, for
often the man who is Il sharp dealer
lacks some OF the more essential
faculties which lead to success. That
nan who allows his machinery to lie
out in the field rather than spend Il
little time and labor to protect it, or
who keeps poor stock that "eat their
heads off, y because such can be bought
for Il few dollars less than we'll bred
animals, is a poor business man and as
a rancher will never make a success.
In the commercial world where com
petition amoung producers is keen, ac-
curate accounts are kept, the cost Of
each product determined to II fraction
OF Il cent and methods devised for
%lessening the eos OF each product and
increasing its value. The manufacturer
must be on the look out for leakage and
when it no longer pays to produce an
article in a certain way he must either
devise a cheaper method or cease the
production of that commodity. Tie

ducer OF wealth, and yet how many in
the United States know definitely

each branch OF their industry has

the men who are making money, who

THE reclamation officials have taken up he matter of finally
determining the status of Indian lands, about which a great deal
has been said of late. Contests have been instituted and sent to
the general land Office at Washinton to be ruled upon. 1t is

ton department that the contests will be successful, fo4s upon the
cases forwarded depends the future of the entire tract, COM

smallest amounts recorded ut any

THE present year promises to produce a bumper crop of all
kinds of farm produce. Fruit will be especially plentiful accord
ing to our informants. Churchill will pour a world of treasure
into the commercial channels of the state, between its mineral

good to us, for the name is synonymous with most every thing

COMES TO A FINISH
AFTER LONG YEARS.
Supreme Court Has Decided
Worthy Case
AND LITIGATION is CONCLUDED
Case Originating in 1890 How End
ed-Over So, 900 is InvoIved-case
Grew Out of Suit Against Security
on Administrator Bond.

The decision of the supreme court
in the Worthy case, rendered yester-
day, brings to an end fifteen years of
litigation and thus disposes of one of
the most stubbornly fought cases ever
originating in Sumter, involving as it
did large amount.
Aud Mr.. B, q. Worthy, as admins
traitor of the estate OF his father, K. l.,
Worthy, is congratulated upon the sue
cessful termination of the suit
The sum of IS, COO was involved IN
this lengthy litigation.
Some time about 1890 Mr.. K L.
Worthy, since deceased, with probably
dozen other friends became security
for the administrator, Ross, upon the
estate of Randolph Battle.
It is said that these securiiies,
among themselves, contributed TO the
payment of debts against the estate,
upon finding that the said estate had
been illegally administered After
some of the heirs became of age the
lawsuit was begun.
They brought suit against the
bondsmen of r )ss on the admin stra-
tors bond, contendipg that said secur
tiles should not be allowed credit for
the debts they had eviously paid
against the Battle estate.
This, 1t appears, was the main issue
to be determined in the suit.
The suit was originated in 1893, and
the heirs therein obtained Judgment
for So, 900 against W. B. Worthy, as
administrator of his father, K L. Wor-
thy, he being the main solvent one of
the securities on the bond.
The case was appealed to the SUI
pHcL4c COuEtg huu uho De6u buEIC6 D6-
fore that tribunal in different formp,
until this final disposition.
The supreme court has just reversed
the decision of the superior court of
Sumter, which sets aside the verdict of
S., 900 against B. Fl. Worthy, admins.
TRAITOR, and also holds that the sums
paid by the securities on the bond
should be properly credited.
When this is done there will be no
liability whatever against the bond Sc
curities. and thus relieves them of any
liability on the bond. Mr.. Worthy was
represented in this lengthy litigation by
Messrs. w. A. Dodson, E. A Hsw-
kins and J, A. Hixon.
The Worthy Case" thus ended,
has been watched with interest through
out it's length of fifteen years.
