The Yorkville Enquirer Is discussing
with its CORRESPONDENTS, big trees. We
believe the largest found In York
county was seventeen feet in circum-
ference. Mr.. Luther Bradley. who Is
cutting the big poplars on the Steven
son land and laying down the logs at
the depot in Due West, can give bet
ter record than this. One Of these
poplars measured twenty-three feet In
circumference. Mr.. Bradley was COM
pelled to erect platform on each side
of the tree after 1t was cut down, IN
order to saw off the cuts. Mr.; Brad
ley says this is the biggest tree he
has found in either the states Of Geor-
gia or South Carolina. This timber
is to be shipped to Germany.
