THE WEEKS DO|NGS At
LAKE CITY AND VICINITY
MANY SHOPPERS Saturday,
PROFIT IN TOBACCO CROP--HIGH
SCHOOL OPENING.-A MARRIAGE.

Lake City, September l9:-There
was nothing at all unusual going on
here Saturday, but Judging from
the crowds that swarmed here all
day long, a stranger would have
supposed that there certainly was a
circus or an aviation meet. Seldom
have so many people gathered here
in one day.
Mr. Sam Epps came up from
Kingstree Sunday and spent the day
in town with relatives.
Mrs Mamie Smith of Colleton is
visiting at her brothers, Dr. A H
Williams's.
Mr. Robert E Turbeville, who is
now living in Charleston, Is here for
a week OF ten days looking after at
fairs on his farm. His description
of the great storm is vid,and gives
one the impression that the amount
of damage given out by the Charles
ton press was far below the true
amount.
Here are some facts and figures
which demonstrate what an intelli-
gent and energetic man can do with
tobacco. Mr. T E King, whose farm
is five miles east of Lake City, had
four and one-half acres in tobacco.
The total yield was 1904 pounds.
This is only a small fraction under
1880 pounds per acre. He sold the
crop for S994.62 net, which is $22l
per acre. Remember, this was the
net amount actually received. The
fertilizers used were 1000 pounds
of McMurphy's tobacco fertilizer,
8-3-S, and 100 pounds of sulphate of
potash per acre. And yet, some
folks say that you can't make liv-
ing farming.
Miss Mamie Green gave a party
Monday night complimentary to
Miss Claudia Johnson. who is one of
the teachers in the splendid school
at Johnsopville.
Mrs w H Whitehead and children
are visiting at Effingham.
Prof W H Hand, State High
school inspector, spent Monday af-
ternoon in town.
Mr. Aaron Fass of Dillon visited
in town Sunday.
Master Hubert Williams is spend
ing some days in Columbia.
Miss Lutte Singletary has resum-
ed her studies at Red Springs, N c.
She went the latter part of last
week.
Mr. Otto Graham, who is the
teacher of mathematics at the Or
angeburg Collegiate Institute, went
back to his post last week.
Miss Lottie Graham is attending
the Collegiate institute at Orange
burg.
Mr. w A Coleman was here Mon
day from Hyman.
The graded and high schools open
ed Monday morning. All the teach
err were on hand, ready to enter
upon the work. Several short speech
es were made to the pupils and their
parents, quite a number of whom
were present. One hundred and
seventy-fve pupils were enrolled.
In the afternoon there was a meet
ing of the trustees and teachers.

A number of the members Of the editorial assoca-
ton who attended the Grand Forks meeting, ap-
parently thought that too much attention being
paid to the "cost system" Be that as 1t may, 4
more publishers and printers conducted their BUSH
ness in more business like manner, there wouldn't
be so many OF us today dependent upon political
pap and the charity of sympathizing friends.
We think its high time we were studying some
system that will make us just little bit more in
dependent.

Fred Koshnich, formerly Of Tow
ner county, who is now located near
Rolla, had IS acres of potatoes on his
farm last summer and made big
money out Of the crop. The variety
planted was the early Ohio. After
the field was planted Mr.. Koshnick
narrowed the land thirteen times
and double cultivated the rows four
time. From the field he dug about
5000 bushels most OF which he sold
at $l.25 per bushel. The rest he will
hold for seed at $3.50. Mr.. Koshnick
estimates this crop pays.better than
a fax crop Of 20 bushels to the a ,re,
at $3.50 per bushel. In addition to
this the land is now free from weeds,
will hold moisture, and ought to be
good next year for Is bushels #
