Refused Twelve Cents.

Mr.. Rettis Cantelou who has
80 acres Of well-fertilized, we'll
cultivated cotton has refused a
bona fde offer of twelve cents per
pound for his crop, whether it be
fifty or one hundred bales. That
was an exceedingly tempting
offer. The wish being father to the
thought, there are many persons
who firmly believe that cotton will
sell for fifteen cents next fall.
Such fancy price may not be
realized, but unless all signs fail
the producers of cotton will re-
ceive good price next fall.

Barbecue at County Home.

Barbecue at County Home.
For the amount of money avail
able, the inmates of no other
County Home in the state are
treated better than are the in
mates of the County Home of
Edgefeld. Steward Scurry is kind
and patient and thoughtful, pro-
viding always the best for them
that his limited funds will per-
NIT. On tomorrow, the glorious
fourth, Mr.. Scurry will give q
barbecue for the inmates of the
Home and few invited friends.
Everything that is needed for the
barbecue has been raised there on
the farm, so this little feast for
these unfortunate people will not
cost the taxpayers anything. All
honor to Steward Scurry for his
faithfdlness, thoughtfulness and
kindness of heart.

condition of the old quarry which
was worked by the government
was reported to him, and be sta
It'd that if all Of the facts were

matter up with the proper off,

that if the excavation was made

contractors that the government
would have it drained. Mr.. Pat
terson will be furnished with all
necessary data.

Do Cotton squares" Fall?

A number of farmers, among
them being Messrs. R. A. Cochran.
S. A. Brunson, B. Cantelou, P. B.
Day, ]. R. Cantelou and others
had quite al interesting discus
sion on the street on Saturday
morning over the shedding Of the
forms or fruit from cotton. Some
contended that squares" never
shed or fall from the stalk until
after the bloom opens and the boil
forms, while others conterded
that they shed both before and
after the opening of the bloom.
There was such a wide difference
of opinion that the question is
vet unsettled. Who can decide it
for them?

very Beautifnl Home wedding.

very 6ehuLlfu 6Ome Weuu1uS.
An extremely fortunate young
man from the West-sides has taken
from US one ofsour choicest flow
ers. and the only consoletion:left
is that they reside near enough to
make us frequent visits.
On Thursday afternoon, June
9th, Miss Eva Wates and Mr..
George Bussey were married at
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. P. R.
Wates, Rev. G. w. Bussey and
DR.. G. E. Burts officiating. The
beautiful ceremony was witnessed
by the Immediate relatives of the
bride and groom, whose affection
for the happy young couple was
tangibly manifested by the many
beautiful presents that were in
evidence.
After congratulations and good
wishes were showered upon Mr..
and Mrs. Bussey, delightful re-
freshments were served in great
abundance.
Edgeiield very reluctantly gives
up the beautiful and universally
beloved bride. Not only has she
by her sweet spirit, gentle manner
and lovable disposition won the
affections of our people since liv-
ing among US, but her Christian
life and influence have been
force which we shall greatly miss.
However, when we realize that the
force of her life and influence are
needed in the community of her
adopted home, as we'll as here, we
must become reconciled. The peo-
pie of the Falfa section are ex-
tremely fortunate in having her
come to live among them.

Death Of Mrs. George B. Lake.

Death of Mrs. George B. Lake.
On Saturday night, the remains
of the beloved Mrs. Geo. B. Lake
were brought to Edge6eld.
When these dear friends left US
some years ago. there was deep
regret and gloom cast over the
spirit of many friends, and yet
we all hoped that il was g tempo
rary separation. feeling that the
ties that bound US were too strong
to be easily broken. So it was a
great shock to receive the message
that one, the most dearly loved
of all, bad gone away, and in the
flesh would never greet US again
with that sweet smile and cordial
sympathy which characterized
her. Still it is a great comfort and
satisfaction to us to know, that in
her dying hours she still loved US,
and held the soil 80 dear, that she
desired to be laid to rest in Edge
field.
The remains were accompanied
from Tazewell, Va, by Capt. Lake,
Miss Rosa Lake and Felix Lake,
and were carried to the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. Robt. Minis, whence
the casket was conveyed to the
Baptist church on Sunday morn
ing at eleven o'clock. A great num-
ber of relatives, friends, acquain-
tances and others who knew her
not, but for the sake of our be-
loved missionary, were present on
this sad occasion. DR.. Burts hur-
ried home from the union meeting
at Bethany to conduct the services.
Mrs. Lake had been a resident
of Edge6eld town and county for
more than thirty years up to the
removal of the family to Johnston,
Shelbyville, KY, and Tazewell,
Va, about nine years ago. She
was not permitted to have with
her in the dying moments all of
her best beloved. Rev. John Lake
and Mrs. Brockman, known to us
all as Lula, are in far away China,
not yet perhaps knowing of the
sad event. The remaining mem
bers of the family are Calbreath,
Sophie, Clara and Leonora.
Mrs. Lake was one of the hero
ines of earth. Though an invalid
and the mother of large family,
she was full of courage, noble aspi-
rations, and undaunted persever-
ance, never known to falter or
murnur under any dispensation
of Providence, but always un.
wavering, steadfast, imm.,vable,
in being and doing, as the days
went by. Troubles which would
have crushed soma, were but step
ping stones for her,-a noble ex-
ample indeed.
Edgeield never wanted to give
up the Lakes, and we know that
they love Edge6eld above all the
homes of later years. This last
link will but bind them the closer
to us.-that the dust of the devo.
ted mother lies at rest among US.
The thoughts of them all will re-
vert to their native heath until
by and by, as the years roll on,
they. will one by one come to US,
either in the flesh, or to find their
final resting place beside the
friends of other years, in our
garden of Sleep"

Chicken Hen Lays Gourds.

You have doubtless heard of
the goose that laid golden eggs.
Well, Mrs. Maggie Hill has a hen
that lays gourds-not exactly
gourds but eggs shaped like gourds.
Mrs. Hill was in town Saturday
and brought with her an egg that
was shaped like an old-fashioned
gourd. The bowl and handle were
perfectly formed. AS Our friends
Joe Mays and Henry Arthur are
authority upon egg culture, We
will have to ask them to explain
this very freakish freak. The Ad-
vertiser's solution is that this
hen-now become famous-ate
gourd seed which produced gourd.
like eggs. What say you. Messrs
Mays and Arthur?
