RESIGNS AS
COUNTY TREAS.
Mr.. ]. T. Richey Hands in Resig-
nation and Mr.. Taylor II.
Stewart is Appointed

Mr.. ] T. Richey has resigned
as treasurer Of Pickens county
and Mr.. Taylor H. Stewart has
been appointed by the % vernon
to fill out the uneNpired term.
Mr.. Richev's resignation is to
take effect October II. but he
will remain in the office with
Mr.. Stewart until the new.
treasurer becomes familiar with
the work.
Mr.. Richey resigned in order
to accept a better position. He
has 20 offers under considera-
ton, but has not definitely de
cided which he will accept. He
will accept one and begin his
new work January l, 1913. He
was appointed treasurer some
thing over a year ago to finish
the term of Treasurer Garvin,
who died while in office, and
has made an excellent officer.
Mr.. Stewart was elected
treasurer in the recent election
and is we'll known all over the
county.

BIG YIELD OF
CORN ON ACRE.
Sixteen Year Old Pickens Coun.
ty Boy Makes 125 Bushels
On One Acre

Ralph D. Gilstrap. Is year old
son of Mr.. E. E. Gilstrap, who
lives about two miles from Pick
ems on the Easley road, is prob.
ably the champion corn growe-
of Pickens county. From a
measured acre he has gathered
l25 bushels and 26 pounds of
corn. TIL, corn was measured
Tuesday.
The young man is a member
of a boys corn club and the
corn was measured according to
rules furnished by the govern
ment.
The two members of boys
corn clubs who make the larg-
est yields of corn to an acre in
Pickens county will be sent to
the corn exposition in Colum-
bia next January, and it seems
likely that Mr.. Gilstrap will be
one Of the boys to go.
The fodder and shucks from
this acre of corn will pay fer
the fertilizer used on it.

THE PENDLETON FAIR.

The fair at Pendleton Tues
day, the Sth, was attended by
about 1000 people from Pickens
Anderson and Oconee counties.
Owing to the ideal weather fol
farm work, the attendance
doubtless surprised the fair pro
moters. The exhibits included
pure bred cattle, horses, hogs,
poultry and farm and dairy
products.
All the exhibits in every de
partment We're highly creditabl(
and the judges felt handicapped
in reaching their decisions.
Probably the largest farm
exhibit was that of Mr. Sedg
wick NJ, Johnston, of Liberty
S. c., Route 2, whose l4S acre
farm is eight miles from Pend
Teton. 1t contained prolific corr
shown on the stalk, varieties of

Mr.. Editor: The Pickens
Staple Cotton Growers Associa-
ton, wishing to reach its mem
bers, avails itself of your kind
offer for the use of your columns
especially as we think that
those who are raising this cot
ton and have not Joined us will
be interested in our plans and
purposes.
The Department of Agricul-
ture at Washington being con-
vinced-as all thoughtful farm
ers are-that the cotton raisers
We're not receiving the returns
they might, appointed a COM
mission to consult with farmers
and formulate Il plan that
would enable the producer to
handle and market his cotton
mast advantageously. 1t was
determined to begin with
staple cotton.
DR.. Brand, who is in charge
of this Work, visited our county
and we have had the good for,
tune to have our community
selected for the experiment of
raising staple cotton assisted by
the hearty cooperation Of gov
ernnlent experts who will do fol
Us everything possible. The
Department proposes to do the
following:
i. Expert assistance in the
sele ton and breeding OF seed
2, Information as to best
way of raising crop,
3. Preparation fer market
And lastly to put us in touch
with mills using cotton such as
we have.
The part we are expected t
do:
To realize the wonderful pos
sibilities of our Piedmont section
for the raising of staple cotton
To determine to raise the vel
best seed and lint.
To sell in bulk and like busi
ness men.

NOT A VERY WIDE sWATH.
A Visit to Long Staple Cotton Farm
From the New York World.

Cotton Association. y 1t seems
to me that every farmer who
raises cotton would do we'll to
Join the association whose OBJ
ject is to raise and handle the
long staple cotton to the best
advantage.
Recently experts have visited
Mr.. Carpenters farm among
them the following: Mr.. Cook,
of Washington, D. c.. head of
the Cotton Plant of the agricul-
tural department. Mr.. Kinsler,
of Texas, expert seed breeder.
Mr.. Andrew, of Memphis, Tenn.
who has charge of the standard
ising of cotton, which means
the better handling and selling
of cotton. Mr.. Sherman, Of
Virginia, assistant to Mr.. An
drew. Mr.. Shoemaker, of
Washington. D. c., expert seed
breeder. After these men had
looked over Mr.. Carpenter S
cotton if was the verdict of all
that it was the best in the South.
Just to think that right here in
Pickens county can be grown
the finest staple perhaps, in the
world, and the seed raised here
at the foot of the mountains
will grow earlier cotton in the
West. Cotton men are anxious
to get seed here to plant the
rich deltas in Mississippi.
Mr. Carpenter has promised
to write for the paper and give
lsuch information and instruc-
ton as farmers may need. If l
have made any mistakes in
this Mr.. Carpenter will please
correct them; My Only desire
in the matter is to help our
farmers, and in helping them
all others will be helped.

Fire at Central.

Fire destroyed the mercantile,
establishment of S. r. Kelley
Wednesday morning about two
o'clock, consisting of about SIG.
600 worth of goods and proper
ty. The origin of the fire is not
known. The fire was first dis
covered by Mrs. w. S. Parker
and the whole north side of the
building was then ready to fall
in, and by the time the alarm
was Igiven the whole building
was on fire. There was not
any thing saved out of the
store, and only by heroic work
of the citizens was his residence
saved, as it is only a few feet

In company with Mr.. Thomas
\. Bowen, farm demonstratol
of Pickens county, I visited the
farm of Mr.. G. H. Carpenter, of
the Vineland section of the
county, to look at his long
staple cotton. To say that ]
was surprised is expressing it
mildly; the cotton is just
simply fine; the best I have ever
seen in this state.
Mr.. Carpenter is raising seed
for the government. He is one
of three men recognized as seed
breeders in South Carolina. Mr..
Coker, Of Darlington, and Mr..
Keenan,, of Columbia, are the
other two. Mr.. Carpenter is
very anxious that Pickens coun,
tY farmers shall join him, and
others, who are now raising the
long staple, for which they car
get double the price for the lint,
and 50. 90 per bushe! for every
seed they raise. Of course ii
will take great care in the rails.
ing and handling the cotton.
Mr.. Carpenter sold his cotton
last year at II cents per pound,
when other cotton was sold fol
s! cents per pound. He sold his
seed for $500 per bushel, when
other seed brought 25 cents pei
bushel. In other words Mr..
Carpenter got per bale about
s145.00, while others received
about $4,000 per bale, Woulo

State, it is claimed, and enough
followers in the United States
to be counted a factor in the ap-
preaching election as they have
out q presidential ticket, and
state tickets in many of the
states. Several papers through
out the United States, aside
from their own official organs,
are espousing the cause of
Socialism.
