Demonstration for Housewives.

Quite a number of ladies availed
themselves of the demonstration Of
gas and oil stoves at the store of S.
NJ. &c e. III. Wilkes e Co Thursday af-
ternoon and went there TO hear and
see the good things that this firm
promised to show them. Both the gas
oline and oil stoves were called out
and paraded" before them by Mr.. w.
p. Thomson, chief stove demonstra-
tor for the firm and a complete dem
onstration was made showing the ad-
vantages of these stoves over the
wood and coal burners. Mr.. Thomson
impressed upon the ladies the import
ant fact in connection with these
stoves, that they are perfectly safe,
very economical, easy to understand
and more cleanly than the old style
stoves. Besides telling what the
stoves could do, Mr.. Thomason show
ed what could be done on them by
giving a demonstration OF actual cook
ing. Many of the ladies expressed
themselves as being very much i'm
pressed with the value and economy OF
the stoves.

5000 PER ACRE.
That Is the Profit of Laurens COun-
ty Farmer from S cientific Cultiya-
tiOn of Plot of Land.

Mr.. and Mrs. j. j. Manley, of the
vicinity of Owngs Station, were in
the city shopping Saturday. Mr. Man
ly is one of those farmers who be-
lieves in crop rotation and planting
other things than cotton.
Mr.. Manly states that he has one
acre plot of average land from which
he has cleared over $500 in the last
fourteen months, three crops having
been gathered from it in that time The
first crop was oats, the second crop
was Irish potatoes and the third crop
was oats again. He is now ready to
plant the land again, but is not yet
determined what he will put it to.
From these three crops he secured
21S dozen bundles OF oats and 100
bushels of potatoes. The total value
of the crop was $3O7.5O. He allows
$107,50 for rent, fertilizer, seed AMI
cultivation though he does not think
that it really cost him that much, his
total outlay for fertilizer being for
II two horse loads of stable manure
and sixteen sacks Of commercial fer
tilizer. This record for money

Without Acting on Pana-
ma Exposition Measure.

Washington. Feb. 6.-Opponents Of
the bill to appropriate $4,000. 900 for
government participation in the Pan
anna Pacific International exposition
practically forestalled action at this
session by flibuster in the house last
night.
The house adjourned without acting
on the measure. many members voting
for adjournment. believing the vote
would be taken next Wednesday, That
day has been set aside. however, for
the count OF the presidential electoral
vote. and bushes in the house is so
congested that 1t hardly will be pos
sible to get the exposition bill up any
other time.
Representatives Mann. Lenrott. Col
lier. Gardner and Sisson led the fight
against the bill. arguing that no ap-
preparation should Ire made because
San Francisco won approval by con-
gress of Its exposition by promising
that the government would not have
to spend cent. Representative Len.
root said the provision for seven COM
missioners at $500 each year for
nearly four years. comes nearer to q
piece Of graft TINA anything have
seen in the house for long time"
Representative Hefiin of Alabama,
chairman Of the exposition's commit
tee. and other advocates Of the bill,
insisted that since tho United States
had officially invited the nations of
the world to participate In the expo
sition 1t would hmmiliate itself by fail
ing tn send an exhibition Of its own.

NATIONS PROTEST
AGAINST MEASURE
Do Not Like Features Of the
-, New immigration Bill
Jews on Hand.

Washington, Feb. 6.-when Presi-
dent Taft gave hearing today to the
new immigration bill. he had before
MIN protests from Germany. the Meth
erlands and Italy against the provision
authorizing the secretary Of commerce
and labor to place Inspectors. matrons,
and public health officials aboard i'm.
migrant ships to report to American
officials the conditions and treatment
Of immigrants en- route. The protest.
ing nations said they regard the pro-
vision an infringement Of the SOW
ereignty Of ships at high seas. Many
prominent Jews are here to protest
the certain features Of the bill.
The president allowed each side one
and a half hours to protest the immi-
grafton bill.
"The burden upon those opposing
the BILL" said Taft, requires a very
strong showing to induce the executive
to override action Of both houses OF
congress"
Harry Oleson. chief justice of the
Chicago municipal court. representing
citizens of Scandinavian descent, and
the association Of foreign language
newspapers Of the United States. spoke
in opposition to the bill. It would
draw, Oleson said. the Immigrants
from the big cities of Europe and not
from the agricultural communities.
This would further congest the big cit
les of the United States. He said q
test of blood was more important than
a literacy test. Representative Curley
presented n printed petition. signed
by 100000 opposing the bill.
