Wych Hazel. Not Witch Hazel.

The correct name for Hamamelis vir-
ginica is not witch hazel, but wych
hazel Our plant has no connection
with tie magic of the water hunter.
The blackthorn of England, Prunus
spinosa, was the wood used in these
divinat.ons. or whatever these super
stitious practices may be termed. Ha-
Eel had a icry wide meaning in the
olden times aid the elm as we'll as
the nut now known as such was hazel.
One Of these elms, now known as u
mus montana, was the favOrite wood
for making wyches, or provision
chests, and was therefore known as
the wych hazel In the present day it
is the wych elm. Our hamamelis re-
ceived from the early settlers the name
Of wych hazel from the resemblance
Of the leaves to those of the wych ha-
Eel or elm of the old world. Language
reformers imagining that wych should
be spelled witch are responsible for the
confusion. Wych hazel is the correct
term for our plant.

MANNING THE YARDS.
A Naval Ceremony That Is Not What
1t Used to Be.

In the old navy. when United States
ships were actually ships with yards,
the bos'n's mates call, "All hands
cheer shipr' was followed by a much
more picturesque ceremony than is
possible now, when the vessels of the
navy are fitted with but single yard
and that only used for signaling AT
the word of command MAN the
yardsw there was an amount of aero
battle scurying on the main decks OF
the old ships that was calculated to
make the ship visitor hold his breath,
the thing looked so dangerous. The
men forward in bluejacket uniform
would fairly leap up the rope ladders,
and almost by the time the echoes Of
the command had died away every
yard on each mast would support
scores of men and boys, all standing
erect, most of them only held up by
the crossed arms Of the men beside.
them, This representation of cross
was held by all of the men, and it
was their business to stand thus with
absolute statuesqueness. Then the
command Cheer shipv would be
bawled out on deck by the chief bos'n's
mate, and there would be a yell from
cathead to miZZen that couldn't help
but warm the blood of everybody with
in hearing of it. When the men
manned the yards with all sail except
topsails and stunsails set, such pic
ture was really beautiful, the mems
uniforms of blue standing out in sap
phire-like contrast to the cameo white
ness of the shrouds. This was cere-
mony on all formal occasions, such as
the visit aboard the old ships OF dis
tinguished men, And "Man the
yardsr' and .Cheer ship" were COM
mands always given when one of the
old clippers of the United States navy
was either departing for or arriving
from foreign station.

TO MASTER THE SHEET.
What You Must Learn if You Want
to Be a Sailor.

to Be Sailor.
One thing you have to learn before
you can write sailor after your name,
and that is to master sail. Brute
force is of no account. To use brute
force with a sail is like employing
it to capture an elephant or run down
an untamed steed. Mastering sail
is a game of strategy. fnesse, di-
plomacy, fattery, persuasion and per-
severance, with fierce energy flashed
in at the right instant You must
know your sail Sails are not all alike.
What will work with jib will fail if
applied to a mainsail or tOpsail.
When once a man has become
skilled at this game he can do more
at it than three lubbers. I've seen
three men tackle a jib and come back
on the head baffled and beaten after
fifteen minute fight, and then fell
low not quarter their combined
weight go out and conquer the sail,
binding it captive in ten minutes.
A sail master has five hands-two on
his arms, two on his legs, and his
teeth. Besides, he has knees, his ell
bows, the grip of his thighs. his neck,
and his whole body. He must be an
octopus, boa constructor and a
monkey, combining with their quail
ties the patience of an OK, the quick
ness of a tiger and the subtlety of a
fox.-T. f. Day in the Outing Maya

HISTORY OF TIE UNION.
ORGANIZATION Eas Had Marvellous
Growth Since 1908.

Anderson. July 25.-The Farmers
Cooperative and Educational Union,
or the Farmers Union. as it is called
for short is worthy Of short story
of that order in this state.
The union is only four years old
and was organized in Texas in 1908,
and its growth has been marvellous.
It has attempted to profit by the
mistakes Of the Alliance and other
farmers organizations, and to build
on a better foundation. The mud sill
of the organization is cooperation in
buying and selling, and among its
tenets is mutual help to members Of
the Union, to promote better methods
Of farming and an improvement Of
farm Life.
The union is organized in % states,
and the South Carolina branch was
organized three years ago. 1t requires
5000 members to secure a state or
ganization, and the South Carolina
organization was only instituted last
year. Anderson county is the strong
hold Of the union for this state-the
first union in South Carolina, being
Septus Union No. !, with T. T. Wake
field president. The union now claims
10000 members in South Carolina, all
located above Columbia. They have no
organization in the low country.
The Farmers Union is a secret or
der, and usually holds monthly meet
ings. The dues are nominal,' only 90
cents per year for all purposes. There
are the national union, state unions
county unions and local unions. All
matters Of legislation of the order
has to 90 through all these channels
before it can be determined, and a
majority rule prevails OF all questions.
In addition to regular officers. such

STATE FARMERS UNION MEETS
Organization Growing Rapidly-20,.
600 Members rs-Resolutions
Adopted.

The annual meeting Of the South
Carolina Farmers Union was called
al Greenwood on Thursday morning
by State President O. p. Goodwin, OF
Laurens. President Goodwin, after
rappins the meeting to order, an
nounced that an address Of welcome
to the delegates and other attending
farmers would be made by Mayor
Kenneth Baker. Mayor Baker most
cordially and happily welcomed the
delegates to Greenwood and inter-
spersed his remarks with timely sug-
gestions and appropriate remarks,
which elected much applause. Plesi-
dent Goodwin then introduced Hon.
J. Bolton Watson, Of Anderson. Mr..
Watson made good, sound, practical
talk on the workings Of the Union
while responding to the address Of
welcome by Mayor Baker.
Twenty-one counties were represen-
ted at the opening. Eight hundred de-
legates were in attendance and more
were coming in. The organization
claims a membership of $4,000 in
South Carolina. At twenty minutes
to IL the meeting went into execu-
tive session. The committee on Gre
dentials was as follows:
J. B. ONeall Holloway, Of New
berry: S. J. Clark, Lexington; 7. c..
Anderson. Greenwood; F. H. Foster,
Greenville, and L. 4. Mahaffey, of
Anderson:
National President C. S. Barrett,
of Atwater, Ca, addressed the meet
ing at 8 o'clock for period of two
hours.
Among other things he said the I'm
ion was now more harmonious than
any old farmers organization had
ever been in the south before. The
average growth Of the union is now
over 5000 members a day. Some
days it reaches five or six thousand
new members. The enrolled member
ship now is over one and half mil
lion. None Of the state organizations
haze any debts and there is more or
less money in the treasury Of every
state organization. The national
treasurer has considerable money to
his credit.
One of the most important things
in connection with this Farmers Un-
ion is the talk now current that the
organization is affiliated with the
American Federation of Labor. Much
has been said about this matter OF
affiliation with the general federation
and the attitude Of many good and
conservative men on the outside has
been undecided toward the organiza-
ton, pending a statement Of its posi-
ton. President Barrett was asked
this question: 'FIs the Farmers Edu-
cational and Cooperative Union afh-
lated with the American Federation
Of Labor?" The answer was "no"
and in his address to the meeting
here he cautioned the members to "go
slow about afiliating with any organ
ization.'' He further said: "Why
should we affiliate when the Farmers
Union is now strong enough and pow
erful enough to accomplish anything
that it warts to that is just and
right?"
