SOUTH CAROLINA ROAD EXTEND
ED.


McBce Jan SO-The Chariot.
Monroe q Columbia .a..way, which
runs from McBee to jefferson, a pros
porous town Is miles northwest OF
this place, has been purchased by
the South Carolina Western railway
The change in management has al
ready been made. Some two years
ago the South Carolina Western was
built from McBee to Hartsville. The
road has gradually extended it's lines
until now 1t enters Darlington, Sum
ter, Bishopville and Florence and will
soon be operating into Lamar and
Timmonsvillle.
When the road is extended to Mon
roc, y. c.. direct connection will be
had with the Clinchfield railway and
To Charlotte, y. G. 1t is believed
that il is but a question Of time when
the line will enter Charleston and
Georgetown, securing connection with
two seaports.
1t is understood that the extension
Of the road To Monroe will be put un-
der way at once and that surveyors go
even preparing to begin their work
I This will open section of the state
which is now only partially developed
but is already growing rapidly in spite
O.: the lack Of advantages.
McBee is a junction point with the
main line of the Scaboard Air Line
and will probably be division point
on the new road. The shops are ex-
pected to be located here.

They viii Find the Beet Ar

One of the most puzzling questions
before the farmer IL what breed OF
horses to buy. 1t must be answered
BY the farmer or farmers who propose
buying the horse breeding stock
themselves. They must take into con-
sideration the local needs especially
the general preference Of the com
munity and the individual likings OF
themselves. II the community favors
the straight moving, fine limbed Clyde,
or the active, we'll rounded Perch

breed, 1t would hardly be advisable

No breed can be called the best

the hands Of one class Of people and

the breed characteristics, turn out a
