TELEPHONES IN THIS
 STATE NUMBER 1O7. .691.
Increase Has Been 5,O52 in Last Seven
 Months.

Telephone statistics run into such high figures that, like the arithmetic of astronomy, they are scarcely to be cOmprehended by the average person. When the telephone stausticIans begin to talk in billions, as they honestly can, they cease to be ineligible; their data are collections of symbols
 America leads the entire world in the use of the telephone. Europe comes next. Thirty-seven years ago the telephone was one of the toys of the Centennial exposition. It's inventor Was shabby he was so poor that he had to borrow his railroad fare to Philadelphia; his invention was so lit tie regarded that the best place he could get for his display was a deal table in an obscure corner of the great show. But for the accident that gave him Don Pedro of Brazil as an inter ested visitor. Bell and his toy might not have been noticed by the jury of awards at all. impatient as he was to get back TO his other work in Boston.
 Now the toy is the foundation of a billion dollar enterprise. It is uniVer- sal and a necessity in social and com mercial life. There were more than 26.G00.000 connections a day between q total of 7.500,000 telephones, in round figures a gain of more than 8O.000 in- staIlatlons over the year before. And 1915 Is showing the same tremendous increase.
 In our own state of Connecticut. the home of the first commercial exchange in the world, the increase in the num- Der of stations installed has kept pace with the rest of the country. On Jan. | 1913, there were 1O2. 639 telephones actually in service. On Aug. 1 tEis figure had been increased to 107,691. an increase of 5,052 telephones in seven months. These. based on the aver as~ of six calls per day for each tele- phone, represent over 30 GOO added calls per day for every day in the year.

The Jonesville school is one of the

is evidenced in the large percentage
of students that attend the various
colleges throughout the State each
year from that progressive centre.
Young men and maidens, many of
them, each year go forth to win hon.

those who finished the high school
there this year will go off to college

GEORGIA SWAMP
CONCEALS AUSTIN
Posse Hopes to Starve the Negro Out
Identity is Certain-Has Held
Conversations With People Who
Know Him-Kills q Dog.

Sylvania, Ga, May 26.-Richard
Henry Austin, the negro wanted for
the murder of several men in South
Carolina, is known to be in Screven
county. 1t is thought hs is about 10
miles from Sylvania in a swamp be-
tween Sylvania and Newington.
The posse which is hunting him
has surrounded this swamp and it is
hoped to capture Austin through
starving him out and forcing him to
to surrender.
There is no doubt that the negro
wanted has been in this locality if he
is not here now. At 1 o'clock Sat-
urday morning Austin went to the
home of Marvin FARRELL, for whom he
had worked in the past, and asked
for something to eat.
He told FARRELL that he was wound
ed and sick and was ready to sur
render if he could get E. X. Over
street or Judge H. A. Boykin to de-
fend him. FARRELL told him to come
back that night and he would have
Judge Boykin at the house. Austin
promised to do so, but finding that a
mob was gathering to take him, he
went into the swamp.
Austin saw Warren Mccall in the
same vicinity on Sunday morning.
Mccall knows the negro we'll. Austin
told him that he did not want to kill
anybody else and did not want to be
killed himself. He said he had had
an opportunity to kill some of those
looking for him several nights ago
when he lay within 40 or SO feet of
them and heard them discussing kill
ing his father in revenge for his kill
ing the people in South Carolina.
Austin has been seen by several men
who know him we'll and there is no
doubt of his identity.
On Thursday of last week Jack
Colson and Dell Colson saw the negro
in swamp near the dividing line of
Georgia and South Carolina. He
wanted to cross the river but they
would not bring him over. Later
John Coker took him across at Hud-
sons ferry. Coker told several of
having seen the negro and this caus-
ed posses to form to hunt for him.
Austin is wounded and seemed anx-
ious to give up if he could secure
protection. He told some people that
Edenfield was not dead when he left
him.
He has one of Edenfeld's guns
with him. He says Edenfield gave
him this gun. Austin is one mile
from the home of F. F. Boykin at
y VS. ford, 10 miles below Sylvan
iaN He is in dense bay and it is
hard to get at him. He killed dog
of one of the posse in the bay this
morning.

Iron and Brabham Cowpeas-A Nee.
essity Where Cotton Wilt Occurs
L. o. Watson, Field Pathologist.

Every farmer in South Carolina
recognizes the necessity of growing
cowpeas, but few seem to realize the
value of planting a good variety
Some of the most progressive farm
ers in the State, who exercise great
care in the planting of the best va
rieties of cotton, corn or oats, pay
no attention whatever to their cow
PEGS. If we would get the best re-
suits from field of cowpeas, it is
equally as necessary that we plant
good seed of one of the best varieties
From our experience during the
past two years in our work with the
farmers of the state, we feel no, hes
ltancy in recommending the Iron and
the Brabham as probably the best
varieties of cowpeas in the State
Both of these varieties are too well
known for discussion here. The fact
that they have proven almost univer,
sally satisfactory in different parts
of the State is sufficient proof OF
their growing and keeping qualities
The Iron and Brabham cowpeas
have special advantage over the
common varieties in that they are re.
sistant to both wilt and root knot
diseases very prevalent in the east.

DEMANDS PROBE
OF COTTON CORNER
South Carolina Senator Asks Legal
Action Against Sellers of Cotton
to James A. Patten and Others of
Famous "Poop,

Washington, May 26.-Demand for
legal action against those who sold
cotton to James A. Patten and others
of the cotton "pool" indicted in 1910
for running corner, was made in
the senate today by Senator Smith
of South Carolina, who said he had
been assured that the department of
commerce, if the senate would pass
a proper resolution, would thorough
ly investigate the selling end of the
famous pool.
eff the department of commerce
does its duty thoroughly" he de-
clared, eve will indict the men who
made those contracts of sale in the
effort to keep the price of cotton
down."
Attorney General Wickersham
brought no action against the sellers
but indicted the buyers.
A resolution instructing the secre-
tary of commerce to investigate was
carried over to the next session of
the senate at the request of Senator
Clark of Wyoming.

ern section of this State as we'll in
other Southern States. No common
variety of cowpeas should be grown
on land infected by these diseases,
because the trouble is increased by
their growth. The eel worms, which
cause root knot. and increase the loss
from wilt, find an easy place to live
and multiply on hte common cowpeas
which they do not find on the resist
ant varieties. BY thus using the Iron
or Brabham pea in a few years of
proper rotation these nematodes or
eel worms which cause so much
trouble can be starved out. The
elimination of root knot in a soil by
this means is the first real problem
in the control os cotton wilt. After
the soil is free from root knot, then
wilt resistant varieties of cotton can
be grown successfully, but until this
is done little success can be hoped
