Newberry, "kin t'row de NOS
"Ned still does whatever ditehing
there is to do around the plantation,
and in addition he makes about one
bale Of cotton a year. He will not
touch a plow. He prepares his land
and cultivates his cotton. with hoe.
He seems to regard plows as some
thing unholy. In fact, while Ned has.
Lived in America during the lifetime
Of more than two generations, he has
not yet been completely civilized.
While he has led peaeeable life, be
still retains many of the elements of
his original savage nature, and his
broken English is yet hard to under
stand.
"Ned has been married a number
Of times, his last marriage occurring
only few years ago. On that oe-
casion Ned thought he had won a
prize in the lottery Of life, and before
the marriage his mind was consider
ably .tro6bled as to the make Of his
wedding clothes. He walked to New
berry and told his troubles to Mr..
Kinard. Mr.. Kinard told him that
he thought the appropriate dress for
a ditchsr would be pair Of over
alls, and Ned eagerly consented for
his sole masser" to make the pur-
chase for him. Mr.. Kinard pres
ented hmm, with his compliments, a
suit of the gaudiest overalls be- could
find, and a high white beaver. In
this wedding suit, and with white
preacher TO perform the ceremony,
because Ned, who must have been Of
royal blood in Africa, would not be
married by negro, he was Joined to
his last wife for better or for worse.
His last wife is now dead and Ned IS
again a widower.
"Ned lives in cabin by himself
and is happy. The abolition OF slav-
cry in mo wise changed the manner
of his Living. For the Kinard FAM
ily his heart holds the same loyalty,
and from them he receives the same
a attention., as in the days of the Old
South.
"Ned's age was recorded in the
old Kinard family Bible, which was
burned in the fire which destroyed
Mr. Kinard's residence on March 29,
of this year. This date was authen-
tic and would make Ned 105 years
old this coming month. Aside from
the date, however, members of the
family by tracing the family record
back to the date when Ned was pur-
chased, can approximate his age. and
it would appear that this is correct.

To the People Of Newberry:
Consider with me the following
statement. The present income Of

more mills for the same purpose. IT
you do, you will have an income OF
$1180000, the two additional mills
yielding $45O0O0 on an assessed val
uation Of $2,346,597. Thcrc can lie
no question about that, notwithstand-
ing the statement Of the Newberry
Observer that your maintenance fund
will be $l3430.00 when the two mills
are voted.
Is $118O0.0O needed to run your
schools? That is tto only question
involved in voting this extra two

ing little room to take care of ali in

FLAX, raised but little outside of Da-
kota, will hereafter hover around the

hence local linen mills will make. the
t1ax straw worth several dollars a
ton; wheat, in view of the rapid in
crease Of home consumption, will
each year be ever increasing in price,
and straw, now wasted, may next sea-
son !be converted into pulp and manu-
featured into lumber-and Dakota S
wheat fields are of world wide fame.
Corn is raised with fair success. Not
long since We met big 800 Ib. Doc
Bruse-and Loo. farms on Ia propor-
tionately large scale owing to old
Pfiefers ranch of thousand azores,
with a sixty acre Illinoi corn field
this season that matured forty bush
els Of yellow dent to the acre.
BY the way, the farm is equipped
with twenty mich COWS; raises a hun
dred hogs yearly on skim milk oil
meal and corn, and two manure
spreaders keep corn field productive.
Next year We will plant one hundred
acres of corn. Then too, we get
abundant yields of ,tHbers and garden
stuff and small fruit. What better
could you 'want?. Can you buy for

Baked Men.

Workers in porcelain factories are
literally baked. but by some miracle
they remain sufficiently UNDERGONE to
live. At least If they are not quite
baked they endure a stronger heat
than that which browns the Sunday
sirloin. The furnaces wherein porce-
lain is finished are kept at the fiercest
heat used in any industry A chain
of workmen, their heads and bodies
swathed in freproof garments, take
the finished pieces from the fire one at
time and pass them to the cooling
room. The man at the head Of this
chain-he who stands nearest the fur.
nace-can only work in five minute
shifts. In his interims of rest he lies
on a mattress drinking glass after
glass of ice water from the hands Of
small boy. At lunchtime all about
the chain Of men steaks grill.-Phila-
