AID PROMISED THE FARMERS
Department Of Agriculture Will As
sist Storm Hurt Planters.

Columbia, July 12.--That the State
department of agriculture is doing
everything within its powers to CO.
operate with the citizens of the dis
trict so recently stricken b. hail, may
be seen from the following letter,
which Commissioner Watson has sent
to the Hon. John T. Roddey, of Rock
Hill. Col. Watson's letter is in reply
to a telegram from that gentleman,
wherein seed are requested for the
new crop that will be sown in an ef-
fort to tide over the York county far
mers, whose entire acreage was, In
some localities, demolished last week
by hail stones:
Hon. John T. Roddey, Rock Hill,
S. c.: My Dear Sir:-I have just re-
turned to the city and find your tel
egram of July and have just receiv-
ed information as to the extent OF the
damage to the agricultural interests
of your section. My Office promptly
advised you of a few addresses and
from those sources trust you have
already begun to get some seed.
This letter is to request you as
quickly as you can to notify me as
accurately as possible of the amount
of the various kinds of seed that will
be necessary to assist the farmers In
replanting. Just as soon as you can
give me this information I will use
every resource of this department to
meet the needs of the farmers with
the least possible delay.
would proceed to Rock Hill my
self Immediately did not have very
important engagements for the next
two or three days that unfortunately
l cannot break. I Judge, however,
from the account in the Rock Hill
Evening Herald that the business in
terests of Rock Hill are rallying to
the rescue and that you have already
formed channels for gathering the in
formation that l have requested
above.
Just as soon as you can give me
definite data kindly do so and I will
do everything in my power to aid the
noble efforts that you are making to
repair as far as possible the disaster
that has fallen upon the producers
of your county.
Very sincerely yours,
E. ]. WATSON, Commissioner.

|densely populated part of the city
the continual crashing and tearing
of houses was added to that inces-
SAINT rumbling and roaring, making
an awful sound, which swelled in
volume until the earth trembled be-
meath our feet.
The air was filled with flying de-
bris. Doors, shutters, roofs and ev-
en- whole houses were sent soaring
and whirling to a height of 800 or
400 feet. 1 saw the wheel of a wag-
on or carriage flying up in the storm
cloud. One house was lifted upward
to a height of more than 100 feet,
when it seemed to explode into a
thousand fragments, which went soar
ing, whirling and mingling with the
other debris.
The wind two blocks away as it
crossed our street pulled down ce-
fdar tree in my front lawn and a huge
plate glass of the house adjoining
was burst outward by the pressure
of the air within and shattered into
hundred fragments. During the
few seconds that the tornado took in
crossing our street no one was IN
sight and l continued my flight to-
ward the scene of the disaster with
out meeting or seeing any one.
On it swept in its answering
northeast course, a great black mon
ster, obscuring the eastern sky; rag
ing, baleful thing; a hateful, devour-
ing demon tearing up houses to their
foundation stones, roaring, rumbling,
rushing, laundering in its awful rage,
the most terrifying spectacle man ev-
er gazed upon, until it swept out of
sight, leaving a path of smoking ru-
ins in its wake.
About 80 minutes after the torna-
do had swept over the city, black,
angry cloud rose in the west and
spread over the entire city, deluging
it with a downpour of rain, while the
wind blew such a gale that many of
the younger assistants became fright
ened and ran to cellars, ditcnes and
sewers to escape the fury Of second
tornado. In vain the older and more
experienced shouted that there was
no danger. The downpour of rain
soaked us all to the skin and was.
of course, much worse for the unfor-
tunates, many of whom were still un-
der the ruins. Those whom we did
rescue were laid on mats, doors and
shutters until we could get men to
carry them beyond the stricken DIS
tTict to carriages and ambu'ances for
the timbers and debris made it impos-
sible for vehicle to cross the patch.

RUG A FACTOR lin
COLOR SCHEME

Every room in the house should
boast a color scheme, walls, hana-
inss. furniture, carpets, or rugs SO
harmonizing as to give a deiightful
and restful effect. Whatever this
color scheme may be, a good rug is
a browning point of beauty, adding
a charm to the barest room which
nothing else can give.
Oriental rugs are most popular and
wear better than any, the price very.

and though rather expensive, they are
not out of reach of the average mod.
crate income. for once purchased they
will wear for years and years. Deal
with a firm Of good repute who can
show selections Of various kinds and
guarantee the wear of each.
, Japanese rugs can be bought in
charming shades to tone with almost
any color. For bedrooms they are
particularly suitable, either in color
combined with white. or in the one
tone color now SO much in demand
The japanese jute rugs come in
handy for laying in front Of wash
stands or for use out of doors. They
are cheap, but do not wear as well,
as the edges fray rather easily.
The hand made wooden rugs are
just as popular as ever, and when
one starts to make one the work be-
comes really fascinating. When the

tions and Illustrations of patterns
