DIVIDEND TIME.
Banks, Cotton Mills and Other Cor.
poratiOns of Newberry Pay Good
Dividends.

Inc several corporations IN Ine
county declared their usual dividends
on last Friday. These dividends all
indicate that the several institutions
are in a prosperous condition. These
semi-annual dividends will turn loose
a considerable amount Of money in
the county and should make money
matters easier.
The National bank is the oldest in
stitution in the county, having been
organized nearly 40 years ago and was
really the first National bank in the
State above Columbia and for num-
Der of years did the bank business
for all of this section of the State. It
has paid out in dividends, during its
existence, about for times its capital
stock and is still in a prosperous con-
dition. In fact at present it is doing
better business and carrying lar
ger line of deposits than it has for a
number Of years.
The next oldest institution is the
Newberry cotton mill which was Or
ganized in 1884 and at that time was
considered somewhat of an expert
ment for it was among the first, if not
the first, cotton mill to be operated
exclusively by steam. 1t has been
very successful and has been enlarged
twice since being built, the additions
being put up largely out of the sur
plus, in addition to thu dividends
which have been declared. y
The following are the institutions
declaring dividends given with the
capital stock and the amount of divi-
dend:

The Glenn-Lowry Manufacturing
company at Whitmire declared their
usual dividend on their capital stock
of 100000. William Coleman & Co.
have the distinction of operating a
very successful bank, an institution
without any capital, but have to the
surplus account a very good amount
The Bank of Pomaria with CAPT.
tai of $4,000, and the Bank Of Chap
pells, with a capital of $4,000 have
but recently been organized and are
doing a safe and successful business.
The Pomaria Oil mill is also one of the
enterprises of the county.
The Little Mountain Oil mill, has
made about 16 per cent. oa its capital
of $4,000, some of which. however,
will go to the paying of certain in
debtedness, but after that is paid
there will be balance to go in diVi-
dends to the stockholders.

AROUSED FOR GOOD ROADS.
Committee From Whitmire Appear
Before Supervisor and Board to
Do Some Road Work.

I A committee from No t township
composed Of R. R. Jeter, J. NJ. Suber,
Z. H. s ;o,r, inc. ". Scot: al" Butler
! Johnson. Ha.: were appolLi / at (;
meeting I'd at Whitmire sJ~c tule
ago, went before the county com!d,.
sioIers H. saturday to petition tAo
supervisor to come over to No. 4
! township and work some Of the roads
| leading into Whitmire. The citizens
of township No. have become very
much aroused on the subject OF im-
proving their roads and they feel that
the chaingang has not done it's pro-
portion of work in their township.
! Some time ago a meeting was held
in Whitmire in the interest of road
! Improvement and it was resolved to
send this committee before the super
visor and his board and to state that
! the people in the township would fur
nish their teams and wagons and
those in the town who did not have
teams and wagons would contribute
money to make up their proportion
provided they could get the supervis-
or to assist them with the chaingang.
1t is proposed to have the chaingang
commence at Whitmire and take the
four leading roads out from Whitmire
and work them for seven or eight
miles, the people along each road CO.
d, operating with the changing. The
four roads proposed are the road
leading toward DR.. Settlers place as
/ far as the Laurens line, the road by
Mr.. Jno. NJ. Suber's place for about
seven miles, the road to the brick
house and the one to Cromer's store.
These four will cover the main roads
in the township and all together the
mileage is not over twenty or twenty
five miles.
They would be will for the chain
gang to come at once, but will be sat
isfed if the supervisor will move there
about the first of Augus@, when they
have finished with their crops and
then they will take their hands and
teams and wagons as indicated and
cooperate with him in the building of
these roads.
The supervisor and his board, see
ing the justice OF the contention of
the committee from Whitmire, have
promised to move into that township
by the first of August. T. tie roaGs ir-
dicated are worked it is probable the
road from Cromer's on to Newberry
will also be put in good condition and
the people on the road by Mr.. Suber's
On to the Caldwell place will work
that road. If this is done it will give
us two good roads from Newberry all
the way to Whitmire, one via Caldwell
and the other via Cromer's store.
Some gentlemen who have been trav-
cling the Cromer road to Whitmire for
so years say it is in worse condition
than they have ever known it.
The good roads fever is now On and
the doctors must get busy and are get
ting busy.

Wood ashes are corrective, and a most excellent fertilizer. A peck of ashes well mixed with a wagon-load of soil is the gardeners way of applying it; but in small garden beds, after spading them deeply, the ashes may be scattered evenly over the surface until the ground is white as with light snowfall. This should be well raked in. the work being done as soon as the ground can be worked. or two or three weeks before plantir2-tirne Ii the soil is heavy and sodden as well as sour, the very best way IS 10 have 1t thrown out to a depth of three feet. carted away and replaced with good soil.

war must be waged against them from
 the outset, so for those who are seek ing ease of culture, with beautiful eff feet, no more satisfactory vine can be
 found than honeysuckle Hallsna (Halrs
 honeysuckle), yielding freely its beauti-
 ful, fragrant flowers, pure white at first,
 turning to soft, pleasing shade of yell
 low. This is evergreen in the South
 and upon the Coast. and remains green
 until after Christmas in the cold sec
 tions of the North. This is one of the
 cleanest vines we have. Aphis do not touch it, even when planted beside
 Heckrott's honeysuckle, which some
 seasons swarmS with aphis. Scarlet, cyerblooming honeysucklc combines
 beautifully with Halls and each furnish
 an abundance of delicious blooms for
 cutting. Clematis Jackmanii, with im-
 mcnse flowers of richest purple. IS free
 from disease and effective as a pillar
 plant, presenting perfect mass of
 bloom. Clematis panicuiata. for a late season bloomer, IS a striking sheet of
 snowy white that must be seen 10 be appreciated. These pcrennials should be secured in early spring from some first class dealer, planted in deeply worked, rich soil. the ground kept stirred until dry weather sets in, then given a mulch of four or five inches depth. Cobsa is grown from seeds which should be started early. planting the seeds, edge wise and siugly in pots placed in a sunny window May first is soon enough, and they should be lightly wat cred until above ground. By allowing the soil to dry somewhat. they may be slipped from the inverted pot without root disturbance. Scarlet salvia planted at the base of cobeas proves highly ar tistic-a favorite combination with for enduring until frost A very har- monious combination is shown in our lower illustration. which also portrays the beauty and utility of the fragrant evergreen honcysuckle The gay nas- turtiums, when in bloom, will harmonize perfectly with the scarlet .salvias and | white geraniums in the porch boxes l

 Keep the Children Busy
 If mothers want to keep their children out of mischief, they should keep them busy, either at work or play. It is a well-inown fact that idleness is the cause of great deal of the wrong doing among men and women, so what else can we expect of our children? Give each a task to do each day, and they will soon learn to feel responsible for its being done well After their work is over, give them the time to play, but not to nope or worry someone Children feel of more importance in the world when they know that they are being depended upon to do something to help. Then when the mother has so much to do. it is great deal to have so many steps saved Of course this applies more especially to homes where there is no outside help kept Give your little ones something to do and see how much bet ter they are
