be pleased to learn that his great
grandfather, Mr.. Littleton A.
Brooks, was a prominent citizen of

Edgefeld last Friday Mr.. Feather
stone received a letter from Rev. S.

erstone's) great grandfather was a
deacon of that church and was one
of two to receive the title to the
church property in ls5o.This can be
found in the records of the church
that are now in existence. Some of
the Oldest citizens of the Bethany
section, still remember the pious
life of Mr.. Littleton Brooks. Like
most of the other candidates for
governor, Mr.. Featherstone is a
member of the Methodist church
but he has stanch personal and

How to Fight Peach Tree
Borers.

If the soil is banked around the
base of the infested trees to depth
of about ten inches after the larvae
have entered the soil for pupation,
which is about June goth, the re-
sulting moths will perish in at
tempting to come to the surface of
the mound of earth. The mound
should be left about the tree until
October 18th, which will prevent
female moths from other orchards,
and any possible ones that may
have escaped from laying eggs on
the moist portion of the tree. Many
of the eggs laid higher up on the
trunks of the trees will never hatch,
and the larvae of any that may
hatch can be easily be destroyed by
carefully going over the orchard
with knife later in the fall. After
October 18th the mounds may be
removed and the upper portion of
the roots uncovered during the win
ter in order to destroy any borers
by exposure, should the weather be
sufficiently cold.-W. A. Thomas,
in Clemson College Press Bulletin.

Spartanburg Farmer Who
Dynanaited Land.

]. Henry Caldwell, the dynamite
man, was in the city yesterday. In
speaking of his two acres of corn
planted on land which be dynamited.
Mr.. Caldwell said he expected to
gather more than two hundred bush
els to the acre.
Prof. Ira Williams of Columbia
was out at Ardella this week and he
took occasion to go over and look
at Mr.. CaldwelE's corn. He said
that he believed Mr. G dwell stood;
q good :chanee OF winning the State
Last M onday representative of
the Dupont Powder company, with
offices at Wilmington, Del, spent
the day at Mr.. Caldwell's to look at
the corn crop. He told Mr.. Cald-
well that he wanted him to try the
experiment again next year, and
that he must plant his dynamite
charges, closer together. He said
that his house would manufacture
the exact size charge, needed, which
would save the trouble and danger
of cutting up the sticks of dyna-
mite. The cartridges will be made
of the black dynamite. Mr.. Cald-
well used the yellow or brown col
ored dynamite this year. /
In speaking of the corn Mr.. Cald-
we'll said that it averages ten feet
in height. In one acre there are
forty-seven rows with 31l stalks to
the row. There is no stalk in the
acre with less than two ears Of corn
and many of them have five ears.
Allowing l25 ears to the bushel,
Mr.. Caldwell figures out that he
will make about 224 bushels of corn
to the acre.
This corn is of the variety known
as the Spartan Wonder" a kind
developed by Mr.. Caldwell by
crossing the "Giant Pearl" and the
Marlboro Prolific" This spar.
tan Wonder" corn took first prize
at the county fair last fall. Mr..
Caldwell has shipped it to all parts
of the United States, selling at So

Safe and Sane Leader.

? Rev. Richard Carroll, the color
ed minister of Columbia who is
we'll and favorably known in Edge
field, has always proven himself to
be a sane and safe leader of his peo-
pie. Il a letter commencing The
State for an editorial upon the re-
cent disgraceful prize fight, Rev.
Carroll stated the following among
other things:
The victory of Johnson will con-
tribute nothing at all to the eleya-
tion of the colored race, nor will
the defeat of Jeffries contribute to
the degradation of the white race.
The love of sports, prize fighting,
betting, joined with brutality and
the desire to satisfy the animal in
stincts and the ungoverned cravings
of humanity resulted in the utter
destruction of the Grecian and Ro-
man civilizations No individual or
race who lives and spends time and
money daily to satisfy the passions
can escape the penalty due to the
violation of righteous law.
Over the outcome of this fight
both races lost their heads, and it is
a pity that 1.-The negro pulpit and
church should have been used as
places of prayer that God might
give the victory to Johnson. But it
is possible that the white people
prayed also. 1t is far better that an
individual gain supremacy over his
passions, his prejudices-in other
words, over his own spirit" than
to take city" by physical and
brutal force. The element of people
that supported and backed the
Jeffries-Johnson fight are the same
people that are ready at all times to
break the law, shed human blood
and encourage race riots in the
United States. If the colored peo-
pie get the idea that this victory
of Johnson's is a victory for the
race, I pity them. And just as you
said, if the white people, on the
other hand, feel that this defeat of
Jeffres is the defeat of the white
race, they, too, deserve to be pitied,
especially when, in consequence,
they are led to seek revenge on the
negro"
