Two Of a Mind.

4 we'll known humorist expressed
the opinion that the keenest repair
tee, after all, was the half uncon-
sci0us sort that sprang so whole
.heartedly from the masses. Here is a
story that he tells in support of his
theory:
4 woman who had been selling
fish entered a street a with an
empty b.1sket on her arm, still Civ
ing forth an unmistakable odor of
the finny tribe it had carried. She
took a vacant seat next to a young
man, a noticeable swell" who
drew his coat tails away and plain
=. showed his disgust.

presently, that you'd rather there

Sow Largely of Wheat.

ltEtlNM& "E-.-
The increased acreage of wheat
throughout the south sduring the past
year has already been felt. The Manu-
facturer's Record, than which there is
- ..::sle. aasiior;sy Oh sIcn asste-1
says: .eThis years Southern wheat
crop saves the day for that crop in the
United States" Every southern state
shows 8 decided increase in the yield Of
wheat over last year. South Carolina
harvested about a million bushels more
than during the preceding year:
The good work has just begun. Let's
keep it up by sowing alarge acreage
in this county this fall. 1t is estimated
tn at FIVE times more wheat was grown
in this county during the past year
than inthe year before. Let's make it
ten times as much for the year that is
before us.
The flour tax that the west annually
levies on the south is enormous. In
fact, it is proving so burdensome, with
the advanced prices, that the farmers
of the SOUTH is rebelling. Some taxes
can not be avoided but this burden,
this tribute to the west, the south can
avoid.
The Advertiser will do its part. We
will again offer prizes for next year in
order to Stimulate and encourage the
farmers to make their flour at home.
Begin now to prepare your wheat Land.

Very Helpful Contests.

The Clark's Hill Agricultural
Club conducted several contests this
year. which created considerable
rivalry between the members. The
first was a prize of SO to the mem
Der who raised themost wheat, ard
the second was like sum to the
one who grew the greatest number
of bushels of corn on hillside land,
bothSof these being womb BY a.r. >.
T Adams. Mr.. III. E. Bunch woa
the $40 for producing the largest
number of bushels of corn oa5bet-
tom land. These contests proved to-
be a great stimulus 10 the ClarlSs
Hill farmers. Other communities
should do likewise.

Pr Ship TO Fly at Georgia
Carolina Fair.

The Curtiss aeroplane which is to
be seen at the approaching Georgia
Carolina Fair is bound to prove one
of the greatest attractions ever at a
southern fall show. Secretary E. e.
Beane. Of the Georgia. Carolina
fair association, recently closed a
contractwitb Mr.. II. w. Sutton,
representing Mr.. Glenn Curtiss, and
aeroplane flights will be made each
day during the fair which begins
here-cn November It'll and extends
through the 18th. This announce
ment will probably draw thousands
to the Augusta fair who otherwise
would not have come, for the aero
plane is the greatest craze that is
affeo Ting the entire world to-day.
For several years the Augusta fair
had dirigible balloons and other
forms of aircraft but these have
long since ceased to be novelties
and the only thing that can thrill,
electrify. terrify and dazzle the peo-
pie in the way of flying is the aero
plane. Several days ago Elk presi-
dent Roosevelt made a fight in an
aeroplane in St. Louis and he de-
CARED that it was the greatest ex-
yerience Of his life, eclipsing even
the excitement and terrors of hunt
mg The beasts of the jungle in dark
est Africa.
Augusta is indeed to be congrat-
ulated upon securing an aeroplane
Cor the fair and it was only secured
after q considerable amount of
Money had been spent, in fact the
aeroplane together with the many
other splendid attractions at the
coming fair is bound to cause the
fair to be the greatest in the histo-
ry Of this section of the south.
President Jackson is back from
New Y DIRK and is enthusiastic over
the outlook. A full report having
been made to him by secretary
Beane of the splendid prospects.

Hurrsh for Collier.

The Advertiser commends the cit
zens of Collier most heartily for the
good work they r doing for the u
of education in their community. Their
new school building would do credit tc
any rural community inSouth Carolina.
The fact that they went down in their
pockets to erect such a building is con-
elusive proof that the good people OF
Collier are indead earnest inthe mat.
ter of educating their children and
young people. All honor to Collier!

IAttend the Fairs.

The holding of so many fairs through

In an experiment made by John
Perkins, residing on rural route
No. 2, Henniker, N. H., the result
obtained far exceeded his expecta-
tions. Mr.. Perkins was so pleased
that he made a statement for gener-
al publication, saying:
For a number of years l was an
invalid from a combination of
troubles. I suffered terribly from
constipation and piles, and was so
stiffened with rheumatism that l
could not arise without assistance.

Afeature of the fair that alone is
worth all the undertaking costs, is the
social feature. The coming together of
friends and relatives on such occasions
broadens their sympathies and in
creases the good fellowship and good

oCONEE COUNTY Is PROsPERING.
Banks Show Good Deposits and In
crease Of Business in General.

The following report OF conditions
In Oconee is taken from a dispatch
from Walhalla to the Columbia State
of January 1st, that issue being de-
voted largely to a resume OF business
conditions in general over the State:
The year 1909 his been one of
great prosperity, growth and devel-
opment in Oconee county. The de-
posts in the various banking institu
tions exceed those Of last year by
more than 100000. All banks are
in good condition, and are paying
their stockholders more than $1S,50O
annually in dividends.
The Westminster OH and Fertilizer
Company, West Union OIL Mill and
the Seneca OH Mill have added large
and complete ginning outfits and
have had most satisfactory year
A majority Of mills have not paid
a dividend this year, but have added
much to their equipment and In
creased their earning capacity. The
Oconee Mills, successor to Cheswell
Mills, at Westminster, have increased
it's capital stock 100000 and now
has capital stock Of 100000.
The Southern Shuttle and Bobbin
Factory, Newry Mill, Walhalla Cotton
Mill and Seneca Cotton Mill are doing
well.
1t is estimated that 90 per cent of
the cotton has been marketed and
very little unsold cotton has been
placed in the warehouses.
Real estate has been active all the
year and Is still SO. This Is true
both in farming and timber lands as
well as building lots in the towns.
This has been builders year. Sem
eca and West Union have erected
splendid school buildings, while Wal
-. halla has built an expensive church.
s'There have been erected throughout
the county more cOmmodious homes
than in any one year in IT,, county's
history. Many houses have been
erected in the county that would do
credit to residence sections Of any
town in South Carolina.
