Gold and Silver Output.

The report of the Geological Sur
vey on the production o.. gold and
silver in the United States in the
year 1905 has just been made public.
The figures showing the production
of gold and silver in approximate dis
tribution by States and Territories,
are the result of conference and ad-
justment between the Geological
Survey and the Bureau of the Mint,
and are accepted as final by the two
bureaus. The total production. of
gold was 4,265,742 fine ounces, val
ued at $88,1sO,7O0; the total pro-
duction of silver was 56,101, 900 fine
ounces, valued at $s4,221,9 ,976, max
ing an entire total value of 1922, ,402,-
6T6.

an increase of $T,716,000 in value
over the production of 1904, while
the production of silver is decrease
Of 1851, 900 ounces in actual output,

The Finances OF the State.

Comptroller General Jones de-
clared yesterday that as near as he
can figure it the appropriations this
year will exceed the income $780,
444. Had the levy been fixed at s
mills the appropriations would have
been $4,000 in excess of income,
and levy of ST mills would have
left the State hut $6,046 over all
expenses.
Mr.. Jones figures that the apr-c-
priations aggregate 81, 1,454, ,229.79
and his figures are verified by calou-
lations made in the State Treasurer's
office. In eight years the appropria-
tions have increased half million
dollars in round numbers. The in
come has increased, but not so
largely.
The taxable property of the State
is S249,500,000, which, at 4& mills,
will produce a revenue of 81, ,122,750 ;
at mills it would have been $1,247,.
600; at ST mills it would have been
$1,309,S75. This is the ad valorem
tax. The indirect taxes amount to
$151 400, estimated. The total in.
COME this year is $1,274,160 at a a.
mill levy, while the expenses last
year were $4,000 in excess of that
amount and to last years expenses
have been added $4,000.
Last year the Hampton monument
was paid for, the jamestown exposi-
tion appropriation was made and the
general election expenses were met.
None of these things are provided
for in the appropriation act this year.
The increase has been general all
along the line. Mr.. Jones's only
fear is that be may be held responsi.
BILE because he did not give sufficient
suggestion and advice to the General
Assembly. This he endeavored to
do.--Columt' State, February 10.

Negro los Year Old.
fAnderson Mail, February 2o.l

ldhuorbon mai, reoruhfy zV.I ti
An interesting story comes from
Pickens concerning Trimmian Ham
mond, negro, who is claimed to be
the oldest man living in Pickens
county.
Hammond lived in Anderson
county until about three years ago.
According to his statement he is 108
years old. He says he was born on
Three-and- Twenty creek, now in
Anderson county, on the plantation
of Sam Warren, in the year 1899.
Sam Warren was a revolutionary
soldier and lost his leg in that war.
Warren was Hammond's master
until he was sold to Alfred Neal,
father of Col. VIM. A. Neal. Col.
Neal's mother, on her death bed,
requested her son, w. A. Neal, to
provide for Hammond and his
wife during their life time. Ham
mond says Col. Neal is one of the
finest men in the State. 1t is said
by Hammond's neighbors that when
Col. Neal brings the old darkey the
necessaries of life, old man Ham
mond can and does sscut the pigeon
wing to beat the band"
Latter day darkies are not in it
with this old man when it comes to
the double shuttle. He lived in An.
derson county up to three years ago,
when he then removed to Col. Meals
plantation at Pickensville.
A correspondent asked him the
following questions:
"What did you do during the
WARP"
He said /: 81 went to the war with
Lawrence Neal, brother of w. A.
Neal, aud was his body guard. The
principal thing that l did during the
war was to throw up breastworks
and bury the dead. served as. a
Confederate soldier through the
whole war;" &
When asked about his education
he said: "No, l got no education
I'm a slavery niger and was brought
up right. / won't even 60 to their
churches. associate with the white
folks-they come in buggies to see
me. No, sir, it does no good to edu-
cate the negro"
When asked if he ever had any
trouble with any one, he answered
"No, l never was witness, and
never was tried for anything.
always stayed at home and attended
to my own business. That is what
all niggers ought to do"
The old negro bids fair to live for
a number of years yet.

The Pendleton Farmers' Society
met in their Farmers hall and
elected the following officers:
J. G. Stribling, president; B. Har-

secretary and treasurer; Prof. G. l..

lain.
The report Of the president showed
that the society had on its roll only
80 living members out of about I5N
old members. About 80 new men
bers were added to The list and on
eight old members were present.
a reprint of the old history of Thu
society was ordered to be printed
and adding thereto a complete his
tory of the society, including the
names of all its members as we'll as
its record, which is fine, up to its
next meeting, at which time its
membership will include large
number of new names of farmers
between now and its next meeting.
This society owns it's own build
ing, 40x65, with three rooms below
and a large hall for their meeting
above. The rooms below are rented
to the post Office authorities and the
telephone exchange, which brings in
sufficient income to keep up expenses
and have a surplus of several hun
dred dollars in the bank besides.
The names of z. Y. Drake, of Marl-
boro county, South Carolina, Jack
Tindal, of Clarendon county, South
Carolina, the winners of the two
world prizes on corn, and e. Nc
IVec Williamson, the promoter of
the famous Williamson corn stunt
ing method, and Aaron Boggs, a
large farmer near Pendleton, who
never bought bushel of corn, were
elected honorary members of this
society.
This society claims to be the old
est active farmers society in the
United States, having been organ
ICED in 1916.
1t has perhaps the most interest
ing history OF its work in the United
States. A very interesting volume,
112 pages, (the only copy known to
be in existence) is now in possession
of the president of the society, and
was published in 1920. On page %
it is mentioned in an essay by John
L. North in 1915, that "frost oc-

On page 73 is an essay on COW pea
vines, by Joseph D. Gaillard, who
lived near Pendleton; "cows did well
and yielded an abundance of milk,
and / have never had COW stuck
in the mire since have been in this
country" (D In these days COWS
were seldom fed in the winter, oonse.
quently they got poor in the spring
and, not being able to pull out, many
of them were stuck in the swampy

sour grass that we sometimes see in
these places to-day.
