Electric Liahts on saturday Niaht.

After being without electric lights since Tuesday night. it was treat to the people in the village to see them appear once more on Saturday even ing.
 The reason why the lights have been out this past week is owing to an over head pulley breaking in the dynamo room at the Ponemah mill. This oc- cured just before o'clock in the af- ternoon late Tuesday. The damage to the dynamo room was small, however, and it is believed that the whole elec- tric system will be in perfect working order by tonight (Monday).

PLOUGHING WITH GASOLENE.
SpartanburE Farmer Uses Engine or
His Farm.

The Editor Of the Spartanburg
Journal says recently he rode Up TO
Ed Fosters farm 10 examine the
ploughing he was doing with gaso-
lene power sir Foster bought a
l2-horse engine and gang of three
disc plows Soon after he began to
work the wet weather set in and
stopped him for several weeks. but
he is now finishing about fifty acres.
Here is what the editor says Of the
experiment:
He took of one disc because the
:tower was not sufficient TO pull the
three in the hard clay The field
examined had been ploughed 4 or 5
inches in former years. Th>, hard
pan in places had never been broken.
The average depth he has ploughed
it this time is about inches II
may be less in places.
We said TO him tha, he was
bringing up too much red clay in
places. while he admitted that it
was too much. he thought by harrow
:ns and heavy fe-,ilizing the crop OF
this year would De good, and It will
be. he did very fine work When
2 disc plow brings up and pulrerizes
three inches Of hard clay great power
is required. Four heavy mules would
not have done the work as we'll as il
was done by gasolene power.
There is no doubt as to the value
OF the work done. Next year two
more inches OF clay can be turned
up and in the course OF three years
the soil will be 10 to Is inches
deep. Mr. Foster proposes to get a
15-horse power engine and use the
three discs.
TWO hands are required TO do the
work and the gasolene and machine
oil costs about $3.50 a day OF -
hours. Two discs Will cut about %
inches. The machine does not move
quite as fast as lively horses hitched
to plow. With the two discs four
acres may be broken in - or II
hours even when the clay IS very
hard. Counting time. oil and two
hands the cost of breaking will be
So 20 S2.25 an acre. and /: is cheap
al that. when the style OF work is
considered. Any farmer who has
30 to loo acres OF land on which
such u machine can be used should
