post that is expected to result in
a much larger use of the mails
by farmers.
Postmaster General Burleson
has announced that hereafter
butter. eggs. fruits, berries.
vegetables. dressed poultry and
other articles entering the par
eel post running from twenty to
fifty pounds in weight may be
packed in boxes and crates SINH
lar to those used when shipment
is made by express. Under the
new rule farm products such as
those enumerated will not be
put in mail bags. Packages of
these articles weighing twenty
pounds or less are required as
heretofore to be packed in such
manner as to be safely handled
in bags with other mail matter.

The County Home.

1t is quite probable that there
will be a new county home be-
fore the end of the present year,
and if so it will be sufficient to
answer every reasonable purpose.
There is now in the county
treasury the sum of $4, 500 in
tended for use on the proposed
new building. and the county
board of commissioners is au-
thorized to borrow SIG, 600 more,
making $50. 500 in all.
According to the present no.
tion of the county commissioners
the best thing to do is to sell all
of the county home farm except
sixty acres and build the new
home on the sixty acres reserved.

Gary May Run for Senate.

The latest political rumor
around Columbia is that Judge
Frank B. Gary of Abbeville will
make the race for the United
States Senate. 1t is understood
that Judge Gary has been urged
by some of his friends to enter
the contest and that he has re-
ceived many assurances of sup
port. He was in the United
States Senate for a short time
Just prior to the nomination of
Senator f.. ID. Smith.
At that time Judge Gary ac-
cepted the senatorship at the
hands of the General Assembly
with the understanding that he
was not to enter the race for the
long term. John Gary Evans,
who is now being mentioned as
possibility in the present con-
test, ran for the longer term
and was defeated by f. d.
Smith. 1t is stated here that if
Judge Gary runs, John Gary
Evans will not run and vice
versa.

Reception for Bride and Groom.

One of the most enjoyable af-
fairs of the season was the
reception given Friday night by
Mr.. and Mrs. j. H. McMurray
in honor of Mr.. and Mrs. Clar-
ence S. McMurray, whose mar
riage occurred in Rock Hill on
Wednesday of last week. The
scene of the reception was the
old White residence, just north
of town. This historic old resi-
dence, the home of the groom's S
parents, always an attractive
place, was made doubly so for
this occasion by a profusion of
floral decorations, varying in the
different rooms.
The guests were received in
the hall by Mr.. and Mrs. J. II.
McMurray, assisted by number
of their friends, and here punch
was served by Misses Isabel
and Dora Grier. The guests
were then ushered into the
spacions dining room, where
they were received by Mrs.
Azilee Harris and Miss Ella
Stewart and a salad course, fol-
lowed by coffee and mints, was
served by Misses Esther Nc
Murray and Isabel Massey.
A large number of the rela-
tives and friends of the bride
and groom attended the recep-
ton.

Clean Up Day, April 81.

At special meeting of the
city council held the last week,
Tuesday April 81, was named as
the date for Clean Up" day in
Fort Mill. AS in former years,
prizes will be awarded the boys
gathering the largest piles of old
bottles. tin cans, buckets and
such other containers or trash
as might collect water and serve
as a breeding place for mos
quitoes.
Council has lately purchased
number of metal garbage cans
which will be placed along the
streets and into which the citi-
zens will be expected to place all
trash and refuse matter, thereby
preventing as far as possible
the accumulation of decayed mat
ter which is detrimental to the
healthfulness of the town. Other
sanitary improvements as recon-
mended by the board of health,
are under consideration and these
likely will be putin effect within
a short time.

Hard Winter Means Good Crops.

The agricultural experts of the
national department of agricul-
ture are of the opinion that the
farmers of the country will be
blessed with big crops in 1914.
They say that the prospects at
this time are particularly bright
as the result of the almost con-
tinuous succession of snow storms
over the country, and figure that
the longer the snow blanket lin
gers, the more grows the as
surance of big crops of corn and
wheat, better vegetables and
fruit, more stock, feed and con-
sequently lower prices.
If this snow blanket will only
take its time in departing" said
one of the officials of the bureau
of soils, I'VE will have a better
crop start this year than for
several years. To date the con-
ditions could hardly be more
ideal"

Tragic Death Of P. T. Youmans.

Pringle T. Youmans, a mem
Der of the Richlend bar and
representative from Richland
county in the lower house of the
General Assembly, was struck
and almost instantly killed by
an automobile on the main street
of Columbia Saturday night
about z O'Clock. The automobile
which caused MIR. Youmans'
death was being driven by Harry
Davis, owner of a garage in
Columbia.
Mr.. Youmans had just stepped
from behind a hack, in an at
tempt to cross the street, when
he was struck by the heavy ma
chine. The force of the collis-
sion and his subsequent fall to
the ground caused the unfortu-
nate man to sustain a compound
fracture of the skull, and ne
died without ever knowing what
struck him.
Davis, the driver of the auto
mobile, Immediately surrendered
to the police.

Outlaws the Carnivals.

There are to be no more car
nival shows in Rowan county.
N. c., of which Salisbury is the
county seat. according to an or
der issued by the board of COM
missioners of that county a few
days ago which forbids the sher-
iff to issue any license to any
carnival or show of this class.
1t was shown that two carnivals
had secured permission to show,
one in Spencer and another about
halfway between Spencer and
Salisbury. The action of the
county board was taken, it was
said, in Difference to a petition
of large number of business
men asking that no carnival be
allowed.
