ELL, NJ HAYES IN COIIrNIRIl
The Dillon herald. [volume] (Dillon, S.C.) 1894-????, 1911-04-20

based on the fact that some of
Hayes was shipped TO Columbia.
The News-Reporter says:
Last week Neill Hayes was in
Chadbourn apparently aimlessly
wandering over the streets, and 1t
was reported that he would probab-
ly locate there. But il now seems
that the Hayeses have left Colum-
bus county for good and all, and
the latest story is that they will
move to Columbia, S. C, where
where Neill will open barber
shop. This story originated from
the fact that some of his furniture
was last week shipped to that city
from Tabor. Among the effects put
out at that depot, and which was
gazed upon by corious crowd
there, is said to have been a chair
riddled with bullets"
The story published by the News
Reporter goes on to gvie the opin-
ion of a number of Tabor citizens
relative to the chair in question and
tale it might tell did it but have
tongue to speak, of the awful trag-
edy which occurred in the Hayes
home on the night of February 4.
But, after all, it says, no matter
what be the sentiment regarding the
outcome of the case, q jury has de-
clared Mrs. Hayes and her husband
gulltless of the murder of Floyd,
and If justice were miscarried, then,
as the young sister of Floyd ex-
claimed when she heard the verdict
of acquittal, God will avenge."
SO, from the Whiteville story, the
appearance of Hayes in Columbia
and his statements as to securing
work, 1t appears that he. with his
wife, has left both his native State
and North Carolina, where he re-
sided but a few months.

From experimenting. | find no crop
Will pay any better returns for the
time spent in preparing the sol
for it's reception, than cotton
After many experiments | have
louuu was able TO get larger
yields when the cotton was planted
In drills ~ feet apart and thinneG
TO one stalk every Is to Is inches
My cotton is ready for thinning
in three weeks from the time it is
up, | use the weeder several times
before thinning. In fact, almost
thin it without the weeder. fine
cotton grows off more radidly after
the weeder and side harrow than il
does after the scraper. After thin.
ming, it is cultivated once week
If no rain to form crust, and always
cultivated as soon as the land viii
permit after a rain. l find a hard
baked crust means a great loss OF
forms and young bolls | have
found shallow, level cultivation
give the largest yields.-W. c
