Don't Burn Your

We have seen a few straw stacks

ton Of wheat straw there is found
$2.5S worth of soil fertility in the
form of nitrogen, phosphorus and pot

field, but after some of South Dako.
ta's zephyrs have blown across the
remains of a burned straw stack, one
would have a hard time locating any
of the remains. But aside from this
when a straw stack is burned, all
of the organic matter contained in
the straw is lost forever to that soil
and right here is where the injury
will be felt sooner than any where
else. When a soil is low in organic
matter it has a very low water hold
ing capacity, it tends to bake more
easily, it sticks to the pillow an6
makes blowing more difficult, and
some day if the process is continued
the organic matter in the soil will
become so low that the soil will be
leone 3unproductive. When that stage
is reached by a soil, one might ap
ply commercial fertilizers until tn,
farm would be taken as payment b,
the fertilizer trust and yet the sol
would not produce.

GIVES CAKES TO
KINGS DAUGHTERS
BAKING CONTEST CONDUCTED
BY RITTER, THE GROCER, TO
HELP HOSPITAL.

Much interest is being manifested
in the Cottolene baking contest to be
conducted at Ritter's Grocery on
next Tuesday. 1t was at first decided
that the cakes not winning prizes
would be returned to those who bak-
ed them, but in view of the early
opening of the Kings Daughters Hos
pital necessity for furnishings and
supplies the proprietor of the big gro
Gerry will turn all the cakes over to
the Kings Daughters and they in
turn will auction them off to the high
est bidder, and the proceeds 10 be
used as the management of the los
pital sees fit.
This thoughtfulness on the part OF
Mr. Ritter is being very much compli-
mented by the members of the or.
der and its friends, and should also
assist in popularizing the contest
thus adding a neat sum to the assist
ance of the hospital and it's efforts.

hope that the sight will be recovered.

vertising for sventy-five to one hun
dred women or girls over fourteen
years of age, and promises steady
and lucrative employment.
In speaking of the matter this
morning Manager Locke Breaux, Jr.,
stated that the orders now on file are
far in excess of the finished product
now on hand, that orders are coming
in steadily, and unless there was an
immediate relief by steady output
they would be swamped. as the larg
er spring orders have not yet been
placed.
During the interval of the suspen
sion a change has been made IN the
metals which will largely increase
the amount of the cash outlay in the
production here. The garters are
made altogether by piece work, and
heretofore one girl has been able to
turn out twelve dozen pairs per day
By the change in the metals the out
put of the individual has been de
creased to a possible two and half
dozen. The decrease in the amount
paid to the metal furnished is made
up in the increase paid to the labor
ers in Columbia. "
Many improvements have been
made in the arrangement of the
working rooms and tables at the fac.
tory on Garden street looking both
to sanitation and comfort, and all the
rules and regulations laid out by the
state factory laws are fully complied
with, and in some instances have
been more than complied with. The
ventilation and heating facilities are
especially good and there is ample
room to avoid crowding even though
the factory be working to its full ca.

BETTER WAY OF BURIAL
Proposition is an innovation in This
Section But Is Fast Becoming Pop

Specially South.

There Is proposed an innovation in
long existing burial methods in this
country, and it is further proposed
that Columbia will be one of the few
smaller cities that will have the ben
eits Of this new and better way"
In the march of science and pro-
gress there has been much casting
about to reach a more scientific pro-
cess of disposing of the dead, for the
protection of the living as we'll as
other satisfactory reasons. The
germs of many affecting diseases are
known to be indestructible by mere
contact. with the soil, indeed find in
it the means of survival and ultimate
dissemination throughout the whole
environments of cemeteries, and en-
inent medical authorities unite in
warning against the continuation of
earth burial. Cremation is abhorrent
and in order to reach method both
satisfactory and safe the mausoleum
idea is fast taking hold throughout
the country. The idea, while not a
new one, has been practiced but very
little in modern times. However, it
is fast becoming popular method OF
burial, and Columbia will be among
the first cities in the state to have a
mausoleum if plans now on foot pre-
vail
The Southern Mausoleum Co, OF
Nashville, with W. G. Weber as
manager, has made arrangements
with the directorate of Rose Hill Gem
etery to construct a mausoleum build
ing near the present entrance TO the
cemetery. The buildings are of con
crete and marble and of beautiful de
sign, and each contain from one hun
dred to one thousand individual
crypts or tombs absolutely free from
possible destruction, and within the
reach of the citizen even of moderate
means.
They are already introduced into
many of the southern cities, and how
powerful has been the appeal made
by these new methods of entomb
ment is sufficiently shown by theil
