Farmers Should Take Eeod.

Farmers should not fail to take
ccgnizance of the fact that many
of the largest cotton mills over
.he country have either closed
down temporarily or are only run
ming on half time. The reason for
their action is the lack Of demand
for tie manufactured goods.
Should this curtailment of pro-
duction continue for any great
length of time it will mean that g
considerable portion of the cotton
crop of 1907 will not be manufec-
tured when the crop soon to be
planted is ready for market. A
surplus of raw cotton in the ware
houses next fall will give the
abears" tangible excuse for de-
pressing the price. Therefore, it
.behooves farmers to reduce the
contemplated cotton acreage and
produce as many of the everyday
necessities at home as possible
Panlcs may come and panics may
90, but the farmer who raises bis
bread aud meat at homo Will &c
on prospering forever.

Grafton Highly CompIinonted.

In writing of the State prelimi-
merry oratorical contest that was
held at the South Carolina Uni.
verslty last week. The State had
the following to say of the oralon
of Mr.. j. G. Sheppard, Jr.:
j. C. Sheppard of the Euphra-
dian society had an unusual sub
iect, "Somehow Good" and band
led this in an excellent manner,
both as to his delivery and as TO
the subject matter OF his speech
He showed that it was within the
power of all to do some good Ill
the world, that sits told US that
we see only the larger of thn COM
cts and stars. So it is in the
world. Even those who do not
shine so bright may do a world
of, good" Mr.. Sheppard's oration
was highly complimented.

Mays, and then 10 the right,
leaving the Old Stage Road, and
go by Gary place, crossing the
Old Plank Road between Walter
Miller's and Bar place; thence
around by Rock Quarry to inter
sect Weaver Road at F G. Smiths;
thence to j., DeLoach's thence
leaving Weaver Road, taking the

Eseefield to be Distributing Point.

A very small portion of the
teeming millions cf the STANDARD
Oil Company will soon be inveat-
ed in Edgefield. AT the meeting OF
the town council on Thursday last
the Standard OIL Company made
application for permission to erect
storage tank. engine or pump
house, and shed for delivery wag-
ons, etc, OH the property of the
railroad near the site of the old
depot. The permit was readily
granted. 1t is presumably the
purpose of the company to supply
Trenton, Johnston and other
neightoring towns from ita Edge
field station. Consumers are hope
full that by shipping oil to this
place in bulk, eliminating sec
ond shipping and handling,
the company will make q reduc-
ton in prices.

In the matter of disastrous fires
Edge6eld has been singularly for.
tunate for two years or more.
While other towns have had busi-
ness blocks and residence sections
devoured by flames, we have es-
capped entirely. Not knowing, how
ever, what a day or night may
bring forth, the town council has
recently had the chemical engine
5overhauled and repaired at con-
siderable cost, 80 as to be in readi-
ness whenever an alarm is sound.
