TELEPHONE FACTS
NO.
THE TELEPHONE ALWAYS READY

telephone company, in order TO provide
prompt and efficient service, must have apparatus
capable OF handling the business as rapidly when
calls arc coming thick and fast as when they are
few and far between. The telephone user receives
the same prompt attention during the busiest hour
OF the day as he does at other times
Providence people make large use of their tcle-
phones, as IS shown by the fact that the average
number OF calls i'll the Providence and East Prov-
dencc exchanges in day is $1,000 OF this total
number OF daily calls All average of 1900 are made
during The busy hour The Providence Tele-
phone Company must be prepared TO handle this
rush OF business without keeping anybody waiting
and must accordingly establish, maintain and oper-
ate plant much larger than would be required if
the number OF calls came at an even rate through
ont the day
he number OF telephone conversations carried
on by Providence people in year mounts far into
the millions. The figures for the last year are
l9,5o57oo and the use of the telephone in Prov
dence is rapidly increasing. The Providence Telc
phone Company in equippng its exchanges must
take into consideration not only the demands made
in the busy hour of the busiest day in the wear with
the present traffic but also the amount of business
which will be handled in the same period in wears
to come.
In considering the cost of providing telephone
service, these arc facts TO be remembered The
OF its patrons on the instant places heavier burdens
telephone company than on any modern
industry.

CLEMSON CAR ATTRACTS MANY SCHOOL
CHILDREN WENT THROUGH TIN.
IERgSTING LECTURES.

K1NGSTREE, February 5:-The
Clemson car came up from George
town on Monday morning and was
sidetracked just north of the station.
All day it was thronged by visitors
who displayed interest in having
the exhibitions explained to them by
the professors in charge.
The party consisted of Prof J \
Harper, professor of agriculture
and director of the experiment sta
ton. Col j S Newman, Prof W S
Morrison and Prof G. S Dosgett.
There were two exhibitions. In
the morning the farmers institute
at the court house attracted more
than = hundred farmers despite Il
day of bad weather.
1t was cold and rainy all day, bnt
many farmers came from distant
points in the country.
Kingstlee has manifested interest
ever since the Car arrived. Many
ladies went through the Car today
and the school children were tax IN
down by grades. This proved far
more satisfactory plan than last
year when they were taken down in
a body, thereby crowding the car

two new STORES.
Mercantile Establishments Of StaCkley
and Courtney about Completed.

Two more mercantile buildings
are about tiaished and ready for oc-
cupancy, viz, those of Messrs L
Stackley and P S Courtney. Mr.
Stackley's building is on the corner
of Main and Academy streets, on
the site of the old wooden structure
where he did business for many years.
The new store, besides being most
advantageously situated, is, in the
opinion Of many, the handsomest mer-
camille establishment in the town.
1t will be remembered that when
Mr. Stackley first put..up this struc-
ture the storm care and leveled it
to the ground, but he pluckily went
to work and put it up again even
better than before. Such is the
spirit of New Kingstree that nothing
can stay its progress. and that is the
true secret of success whether it ap-
ply 10 individual or community.
Mr. P S Courtney is one of our
most popular and enterprising
yoang business men and for push or
energy it would be hald to find his
peer. His new store is next door TO
his present place of business and his
numerous friends are glad TO know
that he will shortly be under his
own roof in the way of q place of
business. He will in the Summer
conduct an "Ice.cream Palace"
and truly from the plans he now has
in mind his place, though not SO
very large, will be palatial in ele-
ganee and comfort.

and study.
The relation of the cognate sciences
to agriculture was taken up and
discussed in detail. Botany was
one Geld and this treated of what
were the plants useful and harmful
to us, End the uses of each. Ento-
mology, or the study of ofiusects, was
also invaluable as pointing out insect
friends and enemies of man; how t.
combat one and cultivate the other.
Chemistry and geology each play
ed important parts as did minerale-
gy and 70 ology.
Farming was not the result Of
chance but the result Of law. Pear
blight came in a definite way and
was caused by bacteria; the farmer
should know how to fight this. Like
wise the San Jose scale shoald be
understood AMI fought out.
He went further and stated that
farmers sheuld study to develop all
the resources which nature had pro-
vided. God had given the world to
man and had given man reason to
understand it and to enjoy it.
This was great lecture on a most
fascinating theme and was of great
value to the community.
At night there was a lecsars on
iudustrial education by Prof. Nor
rison, of the department of history
of Clemson College; a stereoptican
exhibition by Prof Dogge:t and a
talk on beautifying home and
grounds by Col. Newman.
