Your scribe has been Informed that
six of the mules represented some
thing like fifteen hundred dollars.
Farmer, think of this. We can
raise those mules for half of this
price on the farm and never miss
what we raise them OH. Who will
take the lead and start raising horses
and mules in Williamsburg? We
can raise just as good stock in our
county as can be bought from the
Western states. We can supply
our farmers with stock and also
raise some for sale.

attended banquet at Rosemary on
Tuesday night, January 10, given
by the knights of Pythias, Acme
Lodge, 163. The ladies were also
invited to attend the installation of
officers. We had with us District
Grand Chancellor McSwaln Woods
of Manning. After the installation
exercises supper was served by the
good ladies. We have not words to
to tell or express in proper language
the good things that were there to
benefit the inner man. Every one
present enjoyed the occasion. All
the ladies were delighted with the
installation ceremonies. After sup
per we had a short speech of welcome
by MI Il G TalIevast of Rosemary,
which was responded to by Mr.
Woods. About 2 o'clock
the crowd dispersed and wended
their way homeward, all feeling glad
that they had the opportunity 'f
attending this grand entertainment
We hope that Acme lodge will
continue to grow and that such
occasions will not be for
gotten by her membership and their
friends.
