Pointers on Cultivation and Mar
keting Irish Potatoes.

For a year or more Rev. Il. &.
Shannonhouse has been writing ar
ticles on gardening and horticulture
for the News and Courier. The fol-
lowing is a portion of an article by
him giving his experience in grow
ing Irish potatoes:-
Another discovery that furnish
ed some amusement to me, as an
observation of human nature, was
that it pays to get potatoes on the
market at the earliest date possible
In looking over local market last
week there was no encouragement
at all given for new potatoes. One oi
the merchants said he could buy the N
in nearby city at 81 barrel, and
the country people would soon be
selling them at 50. Another one
said he would take a half bushel al
$1.5 0 per el.Another one agreed
to take a barrel at market quota
tions. In the meantime a commits.
sion house a hundred miles away
offered 81 barrel, and another one
in New York advised that they
would bring there four and half
to five and half.
So we started digging with the
idea of shipping, or else getting the
top prices here. There were none
on the local market. And after the
first barrel was filled, for the man
who had agreed to give market
price, I went to see the other one
who had said he could have them
shipped here cheaper than / was
offering. He came to the field to see
them. He asked who would get the

Clemson Agricultural Train.

The agricultural train that is to be
operated by Clemson college will begin
its tour of the state on June the 9th,
spending that day at Parksville. While
it is somewhat of disappointment
that no other place in the county will
be visited by the train, yet we rejoice
with the people of Parksville over their
good fortune.
We trust that the people of the wes-
tern DO m of the county will appre-
ciste the splendid advantage that is OF
fered and will go to Parksvile in large
numbers on the date named to inspect
the live stock and other exhibits that
can be seen on the special train.
One car, as we understand the plans
of the Clemson authorities, will contain
splendid specimens of hogs, COWS, brood
mares, etc., so as to give farmers a
practical demons tration of the kind OF
stock that should be raised in this
county. Another car will be used for
lecture room, being equipped with a
lantern for illustrating the lecture. A
third car will be devoted to the work Of
Winthrop college. This feature should
prove to be of especial interest to the
ladies as we'll as the men.
Again we urge the people for many
miles around to go to Parksville on
June 9Th. The day can be spent there
very pleasantly as well as proftably.

There can be no just reason why
any reader of this will continue to

says:
"a few months ago kidney trouble
came on me with torturing pains
in my back and in my sides. The
passages of the kidney secretions
were irregular and 1 felt so tired
and worn out that it was only with
great effort that I was able to get
around. My back became lame and
sore and 1 could hardly stoop OF
straighten. Fortunately Doan's kid
ney pills were being advertised at
that time and some one advised me
to try them. did so, and the re.
suits were very satisfactory. The
contents of one box made me feel
like a different man, driving away
my pains and aches and improving
my health. Doan's kidney pills GER

In his speech onthe bill placing ag-
ricultural implements, cotton bagging,
ties, etc., on the tree list, Congressman
Byrnes made strong appeal for the
southern farmers. He calls attention
to the fact that the wheat growers OF
the northwest pay no tax on their bin
der twine and very pertinently asks
why the cotton growers of the south
should be forced TO pay a tax on their
bagging and ties, the estimated tax be-
ing about 50 for each farmer. Mr..
Byrnes' argument was strong and well
presented.

Death of Mrs. Prince.

Mrs. o. J. Prince died Monday
afternoon at her home near Golfers
after an illness of many months.
The interment took place Tuesday
morning at Red Hill church, Rev,
J. T. Littlejohn officiating.
A kindly providence spared this

many years. Mrs. Princes maiden
name was Miss Sara Hammond, a
name which has always stood in
Edgefeld county for honor, integri-
ty and high ideals. She was sis
ter of Mr.. Edd Hammond and Lew

Golfers community has sustained a
loss that will be keenly felt.

Let Good Record Continue.

During the past two or three years
the record of crime and lawlessness has
been lower in this county than possi-
bly ever before in its history. Not
only is this proven BY the light docket
and short session of our criminal
cour t, but the conduct and general de-
pertinent of the people of both races
show very decided improvement. We
do not make the statement-nor Is 1t
our purpose to create such an impress
sion-that there is now no lawlessness.
Practically all of the laws are violated
here and there, now and then. How
ever, the violations are generally found
among the depraved class of both
races, which are decidedly in the mi.
nority in every community. And it is
this vagrant, worthless class that
should be constantly watched by the
officers of the law.
There is no more effective deterrent
in restraining the. criminal class than
constant vigilance and alertness on
the part of the officers of the law, but
an officer becomes a greater terror to
the evil-doer W hen it is known that
public sentiment is with him, when ne
has the full sympathy and co-opera-
ton of the law abiding citizens of the
community.
Every officer who is charged with
enforcing law and preserving order
should apprehend the guilty and bring
them to justice. Let US continue the
splendid rec I'd that the old county is
making in the matter of light criminal
docket, short terms of court, few pris-
oners in Jail. The most effective way
of preventing crime is bypunishing those
who have committed crime.
The citizens of every community
should give their full support to the
officers of the law in their efforts to
punish the guilty, whether they be
guilty of theft, arson, selling liquor,
violating contract, assault or murder
Make no exception. Let all laws be
enforced alike.
Let this be borne in mind, that just
as the rigid enforcement. of law
tends to suppress crime, so does the
failure to enforce the law tend to
encourage and increase crime.
It is refec tion on the citizenship
of com munity for worthless, de-

barrel already filled. 1 told him it
was sold to one of the other mer-
chants. What would / do with the
others? They would sell at 81 for
No. 2, and IS for No. 1, hundred
miles from here, and I was prepared
to ship. He thought moment, and
then decided he would take them,
the run of the crop, at the average
price, $3.50. So only one barrel was
shipped.
AS a matter of course he thought
last week that the price would GER
tainly be down this week, but
probably found that it hadn't drop
ped as much as he expected. The
fact being that even those who have
raised potatoes for market are<no
yet willing to dig. They must have
another rain first and make more
potatoes. One said today that his
were as good as mine, but he
wouldn't think of distributing them
until the last of June, because they
don't mature until then.
Insect Enemies.
NOW for q suggestion about in
sect enemies. The most satisfactory
method for getting Mr.. Potato Bug,
az found after irving them all, is the
spray pump and Paris green solu-
ton. With the knapsack tank filled
and under pressure of compressed
air it is really a sort of pleasure to
use the hose with spray nozzle on
potatoes. Fine for poultry houses,
too, using carbolic acid and kero-
sene and water. Two rows at time,
almost as fast as one can walk, is
much better than the old way of
sprinkling, or powdering with flour.
The spray, too, gets the under
leaves as well as the top, and after
it dries one can see the very deli,
cate green shading of the poison
precipitate. Just one application of
a very weak solution Zone of so of
water) did the work. In digging to-
day we saw where the bugs, big and
little, had ceased operations, evil
IDENTIFY the same day the potatoes
were sprayed. We also noticed that
they had actually been caught in
the potato blooms, or flower, which
probably explains why some be-
lieve in the theory of the pest COM
ing to this country in seed potatoes
imported from other states.
Another insect enemy which
ought to be looked after at this
time is the very small one that one
may find on tomato plants, just as
the first flowers appear. We have
not learned his name, but he is al
most minute in size and is of a dark
color. He is evidently extracting
some juice out of the tomato leaves,
along with the plant lice that come
occasionally, and with no informa-
tion to the contrary we must be-
lieve that these tiny parasites are
responsible for the loss of the early
blossoms and fruit, and for the later
blighting of the whole plant. To
combat him we are going to spray
our whole crop this year with a
remedy that green house people say
will,help greatly, namely, arsenate
of lead. It really ought to be used
before the blossoming, but we will
take care to keep the blossoms dry
if possible. To prevent blight the
spraying must be done when the
plants are young. After blight starts
there is not much chance of stop
ping it."

B.Y.P. u. Organized at Modoc'
Parksville Masons Flourish
ing. Dorns Are a Prolif-
ic People.

The young people of Modoc
have organized B. Y. P. U. with
young Jasper Mcdaniel as presi-
dent, and it was our privilege to at
tend a very interesting session OF
the society Sunday afternoon.
Miss Reese is organist, and an
interesting thing about their music
is the fact, that Mr.. Joe Prince &C.
companies the organ with his violin.
Mr.. Prince is an accomplished vio-
linist and the music is simply su-
perb. Modoc has fno material, and
we predict prosperous future for
the young people of that communi-
ty. Jasper Mcdaniel presides with
dignity, and with the assistance Of
such men as w. P. Cromer, j. Q.
Harvely, Joe Prince, and others,
together with Miss Reece, Mrs. Ma
mie Mcdaniel, Mrs. Walker, Mrs.
Thurmond, Mrs. Cromer and 9TH
ers success is assured.
Interest seems to be revived IN
our masonic fraternity. Last 'Satur-
day was held regular commanica-
ton of Parksville lodge, at which
time Mr.. John Grifis received.the
fellow craft degree, and Mr.. Nor
gan the sublime degree of Master
Mason. New applications come in
at every meeting, and the lodge has
not failed to have work to do in
over a year. Messrs. ]. E. Holmes
and ]. D. Quarles of Edgefeld
lodge, and Jessrs. B. d. Kitchings
and J. Fl. Stone of Concordia met
with our lodge Saturday evening,
and were heartily welcomed. We
trust they may come often. e
Mrs. L. F. Dorm and little Walter
leave today to visit Mrs. Dorn's
brothers, Messrs. D. N. and Willie
Nixon of Greenwood, and Mrs. j.
L. Bussey, Mrs. Dorn's daughter
of Spartanburg.
Mrs. Virginia Stone spent a
pleasant day yesterday at the home
of Mrs. Sallie Holley.
Mr.. Tom Cartledge and family
were guests of Mr.. and Mrs. Brooks
Zimmerman on Sunday last.
Mr.. and Mrs. Bub Morgan and
family were the welcomed guests of
Mr.. G. Robertson yesterday.
Rev. o. N. Rountree easily one
of the best and most consecrated
ministers in our county, preached a
most helpful sermon at the Metho-
dist church yesterday from the text,
"If I be lifted up I will draw all
men unto me-"
The weather remains dry, though
the little crops where stands have
been secured are looking well. The
old adage, "a dry May for good
crop year" If true, it should en-
courage our agriculturists. Gardens
are poor, almost burnt up. Small
grain, which in our opinion is poor,
is being rapidly harvested.
Little Angus Paul Mcdaniel
whom we reported last week as
being quite sick with infammatory
rheumatism is some better.
Mr.. Ulie Dorm, who married
Miss Mary Morgan, the daughter
of the sage of Falfa is the happiest
man in all western Edgefeld, being
the happy father of a fine boy born
last week. Mr.. Dorm says that the
Dorns are a prolific people, though
small in statue, and he be hanged
if he doesn't keep up the precepts
and traditions of his fathers. He
says his father-in-lsw, Mr.. Nor
gan is the father of nineteen, and
he'll be switched if he don't intend
to catch up with him. Mr.. Dorm has
been married a year or more, and
has four, which is a pretty good
start. We pull our hat to Ulie Dorm.

TEN MEN KILLED WHEN A
POWDER Factory GOES Up

in this building was blown to pieces.
Ordinarily three others would have
been killed. Those who rovidepntially
escaped the fate of their fellows were
Edward Barber, who had gone home
sick; George Green, who had been
transferred to the ice.cutting crew;
and Henry Nault, who had been sent
to the Office on an errand. What
caused the explosion will never be
known.
Gelatine powder is largely compos.
ed of nitroglycerine. 1t is supposed
that the mixture was being stirred
in the big crucible within the house
when it exploded. About 1000 pounds
exploded. Only twenty minutes be-
for the disaster 5000 pounds of the
explosive had been removed, other
wise the havoc would have been much
greater. As it was the plant WAS lit
tie damaged and the shock felt in Ish.
peming was hardly perceptible.
Windows at Winthrop, a mile away,
however, were broken.
Harris, the injured teamster, was
a few hundred feet fro mthe gelatine
house when it burst asunder. He was
thrown to the ground and was struck
in the back by piece of flying debris
but his injury is not serious one.
Immediately after the reverbrations
of the explosion men employed in
other buildings poured out into the
open air to learn what part of the
plant had been blown up. They has
tened to the scene of the explosion
and where the gelatine building had
stood they found a stretch of bare
ground and timbers splintered into
slivers and scattered over a wide
area. Only a few fragments of bodies
have yet been recovered.

New York, Feb. 6-Miss Helen Piv-
.an Gould and COL John Grahame Hopep
De La Poer Horsley Berresford, Baron
Decies, she in short skirt, he in
sack suit, walked through the rehearsal
today of their marriage at St. Barthol-
omews Church at four o'clock tomor-
row afternoon. Ten minutes before
Miss Gould arrived at the church an
iron awning frame over the doorway
fell. striking woman on the head, she
was not seriously hurt and news of the
accident was withheld from the bride to
be.
None but the bridal party, six brides
maids, two pages, ushers, best man,
bride and groom themselves and their
intimate relatives were admitted, but a
crowd of idle inquisitive reporters, pho
tographers and cranks jostled about
the church ratings. Police precau-
tions against the usual scrimmage at
New York fashionable weddings will
be more thorough than usual tomorrow.
The greenery was in place this after
ternoon, bubt the color scheme of the
floral decorations is being kept secret:
"People will just have to guess" said
Miss Vivian, her face sparkling with
fun. None of the bridesmaids has yet
seen the wedding dress. That, too,
is being kept secret. Its from Paris
and its white, and that really all there
it to it: you know" said Kingdom
Gould after rehearsal
There will be no public display Of
wedding gifts, but one estimate has It
that they number three hundred and
represent a value of $l00, ,OOO Cost Of
trouss:au and bridesmaids gowns is
placed at $30,00 and cost of church
decorations at $40, 900.
Miss Gould is eighteen and Lord
Decics forty-four. She is second
daughter Of George J. Gould and grand
daughter of Jay Gould.
Lord Decies is a member of the Irish
pecrage, has been twenty-three years in
the British army, and is a devoted
horseman. He and Lady Decies will
leave for Egypt and the Upper Nile on
an extended tour.
