Pear BLIGHT.

No certain preventive of blight has yet
been found. II attacks apple trees as we'll
as the pear, but is more destructive on the
latter. Tn leaves and young twigs blacken
and die, and even the larger limbs. II not
checked, 1t will finally kill the tree, or greatly
impair its usefulness. An orchard OF pear
trees In which the blight has been at work
looks as If a fire had gone through It,.
Spraying will prevent some OF the fruit dis
eases, but II cannot be said that any spray
has been found that will remedy this. 1t Is
to be hoped that something will yet be found
10 check It's ravages. 1t is very probable that
there ID a remedy. In the meantime those
who try 10 raise pears must rely on cutting
carefully burning them. But care must be
taken to cut far enough below the blighted
wood 10 be sure and getall the Infected parts.
or the work will be lost. The limbs should
be cut some inches dow from the blackened
part, for 1T is evident that the parasite that
causes the disease is work Ing In that direc-
ton. and may be some distance below the
parts that are already dead. II a solution Of
carbolic acid is prepared, 1t will help TO dip
the knife into this after making each cut. II
Will serve az Il disinfectant TO prevent spread
Ing the disease by the knife.
All trees and plants seem to have enemies
of some kind, and apparently they are on the
increase. In these latter days we must pre-
pare to wage warfare on the Insects and fun
gous diseases. Before the blight came, I do
not remember to have seen any pear trees
that we're diseased. Since II came, there Is
hardly a tree anywhere that has escaped en-
tlrely.

entirely promising at present, because Of the

L~owndesville, June 21st, 1909.
A good rain here Monday eve, but q bad one
in places around, and from the rain above,
Rocky River was again over the low land
crops.
Mrs. D. N. Bourne who had been here with
relatives for about ten days, left for her home
at Sampit on Tuesday.
Miss Meta Allen after a two weeks stay
with relatives In Anderson county came back
Tuesday accompanied by her grandmother,
Mrs. Martha Watson.
Tuesday can, until bettered In one particu-
lar, be known as motor car day, as there we're
five of those modern borse and mule scarers
On Main street at one and the same time.
The cause Of the above number OF machines
being here. was that two OF them were occu-

That the scout cars are blazing a way for an
automobile highway from New York to the
South, which will be Of great benefit to the
cities; yes to the cities. 1t does not matter
about the country, upon which the cities
more or less depend. They are called path
finders, we'll no doubt on their tour they
found some highways in places but little bet
ter than paths, and the trip 80 far was a suc-

WOMEN'S WOES.
AbbevilIe Women are Finding
Relief at Last.

1t does seem that women have more
than a fair share of the aches and
pains that affiict humanity: they must
keep up," must attend to duties in
spite of constantly aching backs, or
headaches, dizzy spells, bearing-down
pains; they must stoop over, when to
stoop means torture. They must walk
and bend and work with racking pains
and many aches from kidney ills.
Kidneys more suffering than
any other organ of the body. Keep
the kidneys we'll and health is easily
maintained. Read Of a remedy for
kidneys only that helps and cures the
kidneys and is endorsed by people in
this locality.
Mrs. V. Griffin, 225 swygart ST.,
Greenwood, s. g., says: II had symp.
toms of kidney trouble for years. The
complaint would generally start with
a dull pain in the small of my back,
soon followed by a languid feeling and
| was tired and worn out nearly all
the time. I was told that Doan's Kid
ney Pills were a good remedy for such
troubles and I procured a box. 1 am
now a great deal better and have nc
hesitation in saying that J. consider
Doan's Kidney Pills to be an excellent
remedy for kidney complaint"

South Dakota continued to hold first
place in production of new wealth per

that the cereal production Of the
states OF Iowa. Minnesota. North Da-
kota and South Dakota, from the
period extending from 1900 to 1908, on
per capita OF population, were: Iowa

The live stock figures for the same
period are; Iowa, $97.5O; Minnesota,

For the year 1908 the cereal pro-
duction per capita Of these states was:
Iowa $3.50: Minnesota 5000; North

OF the seered legs OF a woman in a.

ties are convinced Is a case of MUIR
der. The discovery OF a New Bed
ford newspaper of yesterdays date
with portions of the limbs is regarded
as the most important clue thus far
obtained, indicating possibly the place
of the murder. The authorities to-
night were Of the opinion that the
woman was murdered in New Bed
ford, that the legs were placed In the

BALLINGER ON
ANXIOUS SEAT
is AFRAID PHOSPHATE AND COAL
WILL BE SEIZED BY
MoNoPoLIEs.

San Francisco. Cal, Oct 12.--Secre-
tary OF the Interior Richard A. Bal
linger has issued a statement declar-
ing that the disposition OF the phos-
phate lands Of the Rocky mountain
states presents emergencies calling for
legislation. He says:
"All the known areas of phosphate
lands in the public domain are now
under temporary reservation awaiting
congressional action. Common pru-
dence demands that this fertilizer be
disposed Of with such restrictions as
will require it's domestic use, as far
as possible, in the renewal OF fertility
Of the American farm, rather than
permit Of it's expectation"
Save the Coal Land.
Respecting coal lands he says:
Since 1906, no coal land entries
have been permitted to be made in
Alaska, pending requests upon con-
gress for legislation to prevent the
monopolization of the vast field Of
this valuable deposit lying in this
territory and to secure authority for
permanent reservation for naval pur-
poses. Too much cannot be said in
favor of legislation which will prevent
the absorption of the valuable coal de-
posits by private interests with the
design OF monopolization.'
