Three Badly Injured.

Anderson, July S:-Miss Beulah
Armstrong, Miss Virginia Latimer
and James Latimer wer seriously in
jured this afternoon when DR.. T. O..
Kirkpatrick's large automobile, driv-
en- by Latimer, ran into a rope
stretched across the public road to
warn against a washout and to de-
tour all drivers on road aroun1
the washout. The accident occurce1
five miles south of Anderson, as the
party was going from Anderson to
their home at Lowndesville. At lO
O'Clock tonight the three injured
ones are in the hospital here and
are still in an unconscious condition.
DR.. Harris and DR.. Kirkpatrick say
they are unable to tell the extent OF
the injuries until they regain conscl-
ouspess, when an examination can
be made. They fear internal injuries
in addition to the fearful bruises and
cuts which all three sustained. Six
persons, including Mrs. Kirkpatrick
and two small children, occupied the
automobile, which was making about
Is miles per hour. They had just
come over this piece Of road and
were not aware of the rope having
been placed since they passed. The
rope shattered the wind shield and
then caught Mr.. Latimer under the
chin, cutting his neck to the bone and
Jerking him out of his seat, hurting
him against the women and children
on the rear seat. The flying glass
caused many gashes. When Mr.. Lat
inner was snatched from his seat the
car went crashing into a piece OF
woods. The rope caught Miss Lat
inner under the chin and besides fear
fully gashing her knocked out her
teeth. All of the occupants were
thrown in a heap in the bottom OF
the car and were gashed and Drulsed
before the car could be stopped.
Young Wendell Latimer, who sat
on the front seat, had presepce OF
mind enough to cut off the gasoline
and the machine came to a stand
still.
James Latimer, who is 21 years OF
age, and Miss Virginia Latimer, aged
IA, are children of. Mrs. Klrkpatrlck'
while Miss Armstrong, about 20 years
old, is a resident of Honea Path, and
was on her way to visit relatives at
Lowndesville.
Mrs. Kirkpatrick and the two small
children suffered practically no in
jury beyond being bruised slightly.

Wedding Etiquette.

The parents of the bride are sup'
posed to furnish everything for the
wedding but the groom-in other
words, they have to pay the bill for
decorating the church or home, for
the wedding feast and the invitations.
Also for the carriages, except the one
that brings the groom and his best
man.
The groom furnishes the ring and
the license and-last, but not least
himself.
In some communities the groom
also buys the bouquet for the bride
and her attendants, while she sends
him and the best man the tiny sprays
of flowers they are to wear at the
ceremony.
It seems that the burden of ex'
pense rests with the brides father
but he is usually satisfied to put up
for all these fixtures" if it ends
there. At least it is not considered
good form to call upon him for a
few months! And it is better to post
pone the time many months farther
along if nothing very alarming hap
pens to you, and the little plans for
meeting living expenses hold good
Parents are more apt to feel in
clined to help, if they see that the
young folks are trying to live within
their means; but the man who has
had to make all his own money usu'
ally thinks that his daughters hus-
band ought to be in a position to sup
port himself and wife. The helI
young married people expect should
be from the necessity Of long illness
or some other unforeseen circum'
stances, and not from the. desire tc
''fy before they learn how to walk. y
A rich man made the remark that
his daughters expected to start ir
with as much as he and his wife had
now, after many years of work and
saving. 1 am inclined to think he
was right.-Polly Padget.

Using The Moisture
That Fell In 1911
Farmers Should Beware Of Sowing
Late Says Prof. Shaw-Save all
Moisture Possible

1t is greatly to be regretted that in
the Dakotas and Montana SO little
stubble land was plowed last autumn.
The rain that delayed harvest delayed
the threshing also and the delay of both
hindered the work of plowing. Could
the land generally have been plowed
last autumn, the grain could have been
sown early in the spring. Sowing early
the present spring will almost assure
crop on autumn plowed land because of
the abundant moisture in the soil.
Farmers who have fall-plowed land,
should harrow or disc it at the earliest
possible moment that it will do to 60 on
it in the spring, with view to keep in
the moisture.
Land that is. not plowed, especially
sod land, should be plowed at the
earliest possible moment. 1t should be
given stroke of the harrow as soon as
it is plowed to keep in the moisture
and then sown as soon as practicable.
1t is hardly necessary to pack such
land owing to it's moist condition, if
narrowed thus promptly. Reasonably
clean land plowed thus early, should
produce good crop if handled thus.
The present is one of the few years in
which even in a normally dry area it
should be quite safe to SOW grain after
| rain. 1t is always hazardous in dry
area to sow grain after rain, when the
soil and subsoil are virtually devoid of
moisture at the time of sowing. On
the other hand it should generally be
safe to SOW grain after rain when
there is plenty of moisture in the soil
at such time. The moist condition of
the soil should make it possible to SOW
a relatively large area to grain the
present season.
| But farmers should beware of SOW
ing late. If, on looking over the till
able area which they have, they find
that they cannot get all the land sown
reasonably early, they should try and
disc that which they are not going to
sow at the earliest moment possible
and then summerfallow it for the next
years crop. Of course, it may be
sown to flax as late as the Goth of May,
but it will greatly aid in retaining moist
ure, if it can be disced early. The
plowing may be done later.
If sod is to be broken, the work
should be done early if there is time
for it, and the ground packed with the
disc and the harrow. It it cannot be
plowed early it will, of course do to
plow it in June.
The seeded land, except in the case
of flax, should get one narrowing just
when the blades begin to show, and one
again when the grain is 5 to 6 inches
high. In every reasonable way that
precious moisture should be saved.
