first class road from Yorkville to the
Cherokee line.
Dr. J. H. Saye, Of Sharon, was chos-
en- as chairman Of the meeting, and
the reporter for The Enquirer was re-
quested to act as secretary. and thus
organized the meeting, discussed bond
issue, chaingang operation, contract
system, special levies and other mat
ters connected with the road construc-
ton problem for an hour or more.
The concensus Of opinion among
those present was that the western
half Of the east and west road should
be constructed at the earliest possible
moment, and upon motion Of Mr.. w. s.
Wilkerson, it was resolved to ask the
York delegation to levy a special tax
Of one mill on the dollar, on all the
taxable property Of the county for q
period Of five years, the proceeds
thereof to be used in the construction
Of the proposed road under the con-
tract system.
On motion Of Mr.. ]. w. Kirkpatrick,
Of Yorkville, it was decided to appoint
a committee Of seven, made up OF two
representatives from Yorkville and
five others from the territory more
particularly interested, to go to Co.
lumbia and confer with the Legislative
delegation in regard to the proposed
one mill levy.
On motion Of Mr.. A. L. Black, DR.. j
H. SaYe was named as chairman oi
this committee with authority to Sc
lect the other members whom he de-
signated as follows: w. 8. Wilkerson
JEFF d. Whitesides, B. F. Scoggins, j
C. Wilborn, j. w. Kirkpatrick, c. M
Inman.
Some general discussion Of the sub
ject Of road construction by contract
and by township supervision followed
the appointment Of the delegates. DIR
Saye advocated the contract system
holding 1t to be the most economical
and efficient, and cited the roads OF
France, which he said are built and
kept up by contract, and are the best
in the world, in support Of his conten-
tion Mr. d. C. Clark took issue with
DR.. Saye, holding that while the con-
tract system is probably all right un-
der certain conditions 1t could not be
worked to the best advantage except
in connection with plenty Of money
which could not be secured without 9
bond ISSUE His idea was that work.
ing roads successfully under contract
would involve a heavy outlay for ex-
pensive machinery, and the contractor
could not afford such an outlay except
under conditions that promised exten-
sive contracts.
Mr. w. 8. Wilkerson said he wanted
to see practical trial Of the contract
system in order that there may be op-
portunity for comparison with the re-
suits obtained by the chaingang. He
thought that after a proper and salts
factory trial of this kind the people
would be able to say whether the
chaingang should be built up or abol-
ished. IL
DR.. Saye took occasion to state that
in the event the legislative delegation
should be unwilling to levy the one
mill to be asked for by the committee
the committee would endeavor to per.
suade the delegation to amend the
present road law so as to require the
construction of the east and west road
from west to east.
The meeting adjourned with the un-
derstanding that the committee ap-
pointed to consult with the Legislative
delegation would leave for Columbia
tomorrow morning.

The worId'a Corn Record.-Under

The Worlds Corn Reeord.-Under
the caption "The Worlds Corn Rec
ord" the editor Of Farm and Fireside
writes as follows, in the current issue
Of his paper:
IN 1899 q. ]. Drake Of South Caro-
lima, made the record crop Of corn
from an acre. The yield was 255 bush
els. This is the way he did 1t. He
spread on the acre thousand bushels
say fifty tons-of stable manure. He
also worked into the soil 600 bushels
OF whole cotton seed, 1000 pounds OF
home mixed commercial fertilizer
formula not given-and 400 pounds OF
nitrate Of Soda This fertilizer, with
the labor Of applying it, is estimated to
have cost at least $300-so the crop
did not pay.
IN 1910 a South Carolina boy grew
22Ss bushels Of corn on an acre. His
fertilizing operations cost him at least
5000. Compare these yields with that
of the Page county, Iowa, boy who de-
scribed in Farm and Fireside the
methods he used in growing about SO
bushels to the acre. He used no fer
tilizers at all, planting an alfalfa sod
and carefully cultivating. The South
Carolina experience is the most aston
ishing, the Iowa accomplishment more
profitable"

Good for State Banks AIso.-Dis.

Good for State Banks Also.-Dis-
cussing the position Of national and
state banks as regards the Federal re-
serve system with full recognition of
the fact that the former will lose little
and gain much by membership. the
New York Journal of Commerce pro-
ceeds to consider how state banks
which join will fare. These, Of course,
have not the same inducement for
joining promptly, and are not under
the same pressure to join at all. But
the proposition is one we'll worth care
full consideration by them. They
would not be required to re-organize
under the national law. They would
retain their state charters unless they
elected to reorganize, and would only
have to meet the same requirements
as national banks regarding capitali-
zation, reserves, etc. They have no
bond based circulation privilege to
lose (Which national banks would for
felt at once through membership
and there is no chance of their acquir-
ing such a privilege under state law.
They might lose some Of their free
dom Of action in dealing independent
ly with member banks in their
own and other, states, but this would
be offset by loss of freedom in deal
ing with members Of the Federal sys-

tenn If they themselves do not join 1t.
Casting up the balance Of advantages,
the Journal Of Commerce concluaeS
that when the new system is In run run
operation the state banks will find
membership desirable to maintain
their position in the banking world
MANY Of them in different parts or
the country" it notes, appear to be
already convinced and those which
come in at the beginning will help to
give the new organization an impetus
and to check the attempt at a diver
sion to build up rival reserve systems;
in states. This is eminently desirable.

- Washington, January 81: Post
master General Burleson today sub
mitted to the senate the recommended
tions of the departmental committee
appointed by him to investigate the
practicability Of government owner
ship Of telephone and telegraph lines.
The report declared that "the only
way to afford the people the complete
and modern postal facilities that the
constitution makes it the duty Of the
government to provide" is by carry
ing out these suggestions: Il. That
congress declare government mono
poly over all telegraph, telephone and
radio communication and such other
means for the transmission of intelli-
gence as may hereafter develop; 2.
That congress acquire by purchase at
appraised value the commercial tele-
phone work, except the farmer lines.
8. That congress authorize the post
master general to issue, in his discre-
ton and under such regulation as he
may prescribe, revocable licenses for
the operation by private individuals,
associations, companies and corpor-
ations, of the telegraph service and
such parts of the telephone service as
may not be acquired by the govern
ment." The recommendations are
signed by Daniel l.. Roper, first assis-
tant postmaster general; Merritt o,
Chance, chief clerk, postoffice depart
ment, and John c. Koons, superinten-
dent division of salaries and allow
ances composing the committee,
The private monopoly" states the
report, has no incentive to extend its
facilities to Improbable territory; but
the government must serve all the
people. 1t is economic waste to per-
NIT private enterprises to build up
vast properties that eventually must
be taken over by the government in
resuming its constitutional monopoly
at a cost out of all proportion to the
value of the parts of such properties
that may be utilized to advantage in
the postal system. Telegraph facili-
ties have not been extended to the
small towns and villages along with
the government postal facilities. Ac-
cording to the best available data, the

To Discard Freckles,
Tan, Pimples, Wrinkles

The use of creams on the face some
times causes hair to grow You can
avoid the risk of acquiring superfluous
hair by avoiding cosmetics and using
mercolized wax instead. There is
nothing better for any condition Of the
skin, as the wax actually absorbs the
offensive cuticle. The latter is nat
urally replaced by a clear, 9. smooth,
healthy complexion, full of life and
expression. It's the sensible way to
discard a freckled, tanned, over-red,
blotchy or pimpled skin. Get an ounce
of mercolized wax at any druggists
and apply nightly like cold cream,
erasing in the morning with soap and
water. It takes week or SO to COM
plete the Transformation.
The ideal wrinkle eradicator is made
by dissolving an ounce of powdered
saxolite in half pint witch hazel
Bathing the face in the solution
brings almost instantaneous results.
