FARMERS INSTITUTES
 IN SALT RIVER VALLEY
The Series of Meetings Which Have Been Conducted by Prof. Clothier.

Professor F. W. ClOthier of the Uni versity of Arizona has just closed d series of farmers institutes in the Salt River valley. The locations visited were Liberty. Buckeye. Arlington, Mesa. and Glendale. The subjects dis eussed were Soil Management" How to Secure Early Vegetables How to Milk a Cow and Egyptian Cotton" Owing to the busy season of the year the lectures were not as largely at tended as could be desired but fair average attendance was secured and the audiences, one and all, expressed themselves as having been greatly benefited by the work. The total at tendance at the five places was 137.
 This will probably close the work for the present season but it will be con tinued next fall. Since the 20th of October, 1907, the beginning of the present seasons work. there have been held fifty-five meetings at twenty different places, with a total attend ance of 263S people These meetings

Henry George may forget a good many things but he had a valuable horse he remembered to sell to' Dr. J. C. Norton just in time to save a dead loss. The animal had been good one and look ed pretty good yet save that he had ar ulcer on the shoulder that would not heal He told the veterinarian that much as it pained him to do it he would accept $50 for the horse and the doctor could rub on a little three H. liniment. cure uo the sore and sell the animal for S100.

Demonstration Work Successful.

Mr.. j. M. jenkins, District agent Of
the Farmers Cooperative Demonstra-
ton Work, in speaking of his work this
morning, said hat they now had over
a hundred farmers in Laurens county
who were doing this demonstration
work and that already the good effects
of it were visible. These farmers have
certain plots of land that are being cul-
tivated according to the government
plan and under the direction of the de-
monstration department; these they are
working faithfully, but hat is not all,
they are trying on their other grounds
and by their own methods to Guido the
government plan, thus arousing a
wholesome competition, and rivalry
with themselves. Mr.. Jenkins is high
~ pleased with the result of his work
thus far, and is hoping for vastly bet
ter conditions for the farmers in the
near future.
In another column is an article hand
ed us by Mr.. Jenkins that will be of
special interest to the farmers.

Among the many artists engaged to
sing at the Spartanburg festival was
Mr.. Reed Miller, of Anderson county.
Mr.. Miller is well known here, having
made this his home for a time and hav-
ing at one time sung in the choir of the
First Baptist church here.
The following words of praise by one
of the music critics will be read with in
tereSt by many of the Laurens people
who know Mr.. Miller:
"Rced Miller, tenor, native of Ander-
son, was greeted with a burst of APP
.splausc. 1t was his first appearance in

voice simply charmed the vast audience
of people. The enthusiastic encores he
received was the best evidence of the

Hell at ~Chicamauga.

A. number of Confederate prisoners,
during the Civil War, were detained at
one of the Western military posts I'M
der conditions much less unpleasant than
those to be found in the ordinary mill
tary prison. Most of them appreciated
their comparatively good fortune. One
young fellow, though. could not be
reconciled to association with Yankees
under any circumstances, and took adj
vantage of every opportunity to ex-
press his feelings. He was continually
rubbing it in about the battle of Chick
amauga, which had just been fought
with such disastrous results for the
Union forces.
maybe we didn't eat you up at
Chickamauga!' was the way he gen.
orally greeted a bluecoat.
The Union men, when they could
stand it no longer, reported the matter
to General Grant. Grant summoned
the prisoner.
"See here" said Grant, II under
stand that you are continually insulting
the men here with references to the
battle Of Chickamauga. They have
borne with you long enough, and I'm
going to give you your choice of two
things. You will either take the oath
of allegiance to the United States or
be sent to a Northern prison. Choose
The prisoner vas silent for some time.
"Well." he said at last, in a resigned
tone, 81 reckon, General, I'll take the
oath"
The oath was duly administered.
Turning to Grant, the fellow then
asked, very p~enitently, if he might
speak.
yes" said Grant, indifferently.

"Why, l was just thinkin', General, -
he drawled, "they certainly did give us

In Memory of a Child.

Loving tribute to the memory of little
Sarah Thayer, only daughter of Rev.
w. f.. Thayer, of the First Baptist
church, of Laurens:
On the 18th of April, 1908, as the sun
had rolled behind the great western
hills and the stars as lovely diamonds
lighting up the whole canopy of heaven
the sweet little spirit Of Sarah Thayer
slipped noiselessly away from under the
tears and kisses of father, mother and
loved mes and rode on the first bright
ray that leaped from the home of her
earthly parents and with a great convoy
of angels was borne through the streets
to the lovely beyond. | could almost
see in my finite vision the tears rolling
down the cheeks of the angels as they
stood around the threshold awaiting the
entrance of her pure little spirit as
they heard the dear mother and father
pleading for their child in words char
actcristic of parents love, begging
God to spare their only child. 1t is said
there are no tears in heaven, but Jesus
wept on one OCCASION, and | believe that
as His infinite love swept from heaven
to the bedside of little Sarah, as He
heard the cry Of the mother and loved
ones, He must have wept again. But
God knew best. He had a mission for
her to fill. So, early in the twilight, as
the beautiful bud was sparkling with
dew He plucked it and pinned it on His
bosom with a bright, beautiful star.
And as she is leaving this world she is
saying to loved ones:
'"Thennestle yourhand in your fathers,
And sing, if you can, as you go:
Your song may cheer some one behind
you
Whose courage is sinking low;
And. well, if your lips do culver,
God will love you better 3d."
