take it all off, thus exposing fall

Two crops Of Oats in One Season.

Mr.. W. G. Chapman, "rubber-tired far
mer,'' takes the cake on making oats. Mr..
Chapman, while he belongs in the class OF
rubber tires, still outclasses many far
mers who do not use 1910 methods. He
Does not know how to make less than a
bale of cotton to the acre. farm as he will.
This year Mr.. Chapman sowed a field of
his farm in oats. After reaping an album
dant harvest he Immediately sowed the
same land in peas. The oats left on the
ground we're thus turned under and for
some reason, probably due to something
Mr.. Chapman put under the ground with
them, they refused to stay under and
came up with the peas. The oats and peas
grew of nicely together, neither trying
to trip the other up, and SO it is that now
ut this writing, Mr.. Chapman has IL fine
Crop of peas and second crop of oats
grown, headed out, ripened and ready fol
the blade.
We have never seen such a. thing before
1t indicates that Abbeville County grit is
a "huckle berry above the persimmon" OF
any other farm lands in the country, land
that will make two crops Of small grain
within ten months or less time. Who can
beat it?

Death of Mrs. Sarah Clay.

Mrs. Sarah Clay passed from earth away
into the great beyond on Monday Am.
Sept. 5, 1910, twenty minutes till III
o'clock, after an illness Of only a few days.
She was stricken with paralysis on Friday
Sent. End, which a the cause OF her
death. She was 76 years Of age. She died
at the home of her daughter, six miles
south OF Abbeville. She leaves two child
len and two grand children to mourn her
death. She came from Ireland some sixty
odd years ago, and was just a young girl
when she came to South Can olina. She
was married to Mr.. Elisha Clay in the
wear of 1866. Many friends will learn OF
her death with great sorrow. The de-
ceased was a most estimable woman, She
Joined Lebanon church when quite a young
lady and lived as a faithful christian. The
remains were taken to Lebanon on Tues
day afternoon at 5 o'clock. Funeral SER
vices were conducted by her pastor, Rev.
Mr.. Hillhouse. Her remains were laid to
rest in the presence Of many sorrowlng
friends. Sincere sympathy of hosts OF
friends go out to the bereaved family.
The pains of death are past,
Labor and sorrow cease;
And life's long warfare closed at last,
Her soul is found in peace.
Soldier of Christ, well done!
Praise be thy new employ;
And while eternal ages run,
Rest In thy Saviour's Joy.
A Friend.

The Trolley.

The promoters Of the trolley proposition
are out West inspecting electric lines and
purchasing stock for the line. When they
return and meet Mr.. Duke we will finally
know where the trolley goes.
We are half inclined to believe that the
promoters would consider fayorably
building both to Greenwood and to Able
Vile. While no new road pays much divi-
dends the first year still it would be only a
question OF time before both the branches
would pay.
Greenwood has only n advantage over
Abbeville and that Is in passenger traffic.
In the matter of handling freight Able
Vile offers better facilities and much less
mileage than Greenwood, and should the
trolley go to both places it would OF course
reap both advantages.
In the mean time we patiently wait the
decision Of the promoters as to which
place they will take the line for the pres
ent. It means more to either Of these
towns thar the citizens Of the respective
towns imagine.

Sheriff Lyon Threw Away Money.

Sounds funny but it's so. He threw away
about twenty five or thirty dollar slast FIJI
day morning. Of course it was not MS
1t belonged to the state. Certain lndlVld-
nails in and around Abbeville had ordered
lio1or for the purpose Of selling it again
and the Sheriff Of course seized it. IL be-
ing his duty to pour it out after certain
length of time had elapsed proceeded 10
so Friday morning, to the tune OF about
fifteen gallons.
Some Iawmaker will confer a favor on
the state to make some provision by which
whiskev thus seized may be given to hos
nitals, Poor House, or turned into Alcohol
denaturcd for commercial use. There Is
no reason to thus waste thousands OF dol
lars annually by pouring out wllIskeS
which has thus been seized by officers OF
the law.
Some hard things were said about tho
Sheriff by sundry thirsty individuals as II
the sheriff we're to blame for the pouring
out of the SPIRIT. To them it looked like
q wiIlful waste when the woeful want was
already present, There is no sense IN any
such law. 1t points to no moral, it reads
no lesson, and ought to be stopped.
It does not make much difference what
is done with sized whlskey just so it is not
wasted. There are a thousand ways by
| which it could be used advantageously to
i
the state.
At each court house all over the state
at intervals this pouring out act takes
Mace, and while it is not throwing away
money it is throwing away the equivalent
of money and is wrong.

that the Library is for women alone, FOL
such is not the case, all will be cordially
welcomed, old and young, mer
and women, boys and ~girls-anyont
interested will find a visit to the Library
time well spent.

The Old Smoke House.

This is a term which to the younger
generation is archaic Greek. The old log
house with its bare joists of hewn pine and
its dirt floor long ago disappeared.
In it more good things used to be stored
away than may now be found in our up
to-date groceries. From the. joists used
to hang great big fat hams, smoked with
the bark of oak, smutted and begrimed on
the outside but within the kitchen knife
showed q dainty Of peacock color like the
irridescent glitter of rich copper, which to
the palate brought a gloat Of such salts
faction as only those Of the old smoke
house times can know.
And the shoulders and the jowls which
cooked whole with the turnips and curly
mustard "transmogrified" the ."greens"
into an epicurean dish of unquestioned
renown-all were there, there in p~rofusion
And the bacon, bacon with the ribs in, not
fat backs, but good old smoke cured bacon
that made the darky's face shine like the
oil of JOY Of bible times. Great slabs OF 1t
were in the old smoke house with the dirt
floor. How greasy and rich that dirt
looked with the jugs of black berry and
scuppernong and grape wines sticking
their noses out of the earth where they
were buried to keep cool.
oh, my what a picture to gloat on now
in this day of red ham and embalmed beef
and glucose and fat backs!
And the sorghum molasses and the
home ground fourin the old smoke house,
molasses having no speaking acquain-
lance to C.. O.'s and P. RS and glucose
straight. The pepsin and pancreatic
juices well up and over flow at the thought
of the old srloke house.
1t had OILY one door and when locked
was locked with a chain. Every thing
went in straight and came out straight
No syringe shot poison preserving fluid to
the bones of the old smoke house meat
No embalming fluid touched the precincts
Of that glorious place.
Go back, back to the old Smoke House.
With its rusty boards and dingy confines.
Seat your self on the old poplar meat
trough and lie the silent sombre Vista of
the past rnminate on its glories and
learn how to live.
