AS one grows old their organs act
more slowly and less effectually than in

gets thin, the appetite poor and diges-
ton weak. Vinol, our delicious cod liver

and body builder for old folks because
it creates a good healthy appetite,
strengthens digestion, enriches the
blood, improves circulation and in this
natural manner builds up, strengthens
and invigorates feeble, rundown, nerv-
GUS and aged people, and if it does notdo
all we say, we will pay back your

taken on new impetus, owing to the
fact that, as announced last week, a
special anti-tuberculosis conference

a partial church census it was found
lat the mortality rate from tubercu-

three per cent higher t2an the aver
ge for the United States. From this
fact, both the approaching cor. .erence

important. The commission announces

TWO WAREHOUSES;
ARE TAKEN OVER
PROSPERITY AND LITTLE NOUN
TAIN STORAGE ACCEPTED
Commissioner McLlurin Describes
Typical Small NeighbOrhOOd Plant
Rates of Insurance.
The State, 18th.

u0 oLdlS, 1OGA.
Two warehouses in Newberry coun-
ty were accepted yesterday by John L.
McIaurin. State warehouse commits
sioner. The one at Little Mountain
has not been signed up yet, but Will
be next week. Both of these houses
are of the emergency type, and the
one at Prosperity, owned by A. G.
Wise, has been formally transferred
and tde paper signed. Senator Nc
Laurin took A w Bollin with him as
insurance inspector, so as to see
exactly what the companies would do
on this type of house. The following
information should be of interest and
value to the farmers Of the State,
showing how cneaply cotton can be
stored under the State warehouse plan
and receipt given which can be used
as collateral:
The application blank shows an iron
corrugated warehouse, 80 by 100, II
feet between :loor and joists. The ap-
plication shows that the total cost OF
construction was 1912. The cost Of
the corrugated iron was $237, and
Mr.. Wise said that the lumber, nails
and labor did not exceed SIS. L; has
a door in each end, and two doors in
each side. 1t has been in use one
week, has 200 bales of cotton, with
capacity of 600, and is so arranged
that more sections can be added as
needed.
Senator McLaurin took it over at
nominal rent of 81 per year, and ap
pointed A. Birge Wise manager, with
salary of 81 per annum. The charge
for storage will be 20 cents per bale,
out of which the State will receive 8
cents per bale per month and the bal
ance will go as rent to A. G. Wise, who
built the house. Senator McLaurin ap-
pointed A. Birge Wise weigher and
grader for any cotton offered at any
State warehouse in Newberry county.
He is to charge 5 cents per bale for
each bale of cotton weighed and
graded Thus, so far as the opera
ton is concerned it will be 81 per
year. When it comes to labor, Mr..
Wise will use his farm hands. The
rate of insurance fixed by Hr. Bollin
was S1.75 per 500 per year, and this
in the form of an open policy ior tie
full capacity, with report as cotton
comes in, so that insurance is paid
only on what is actually in the house.
Senator McLaurin said that out
side Of the cost of the building, he fig
ured it would cost Mr.. Wise only S106
year to store this cotton, including
insurance and all other expenses, per
bale, or 2-3 cents per month.
"Any three of four farmers can 90
in and do the same thing, which is
much better t an paying the freight
to Columbia and so cents per bale,
each month, especially when consid-
ering the superiority of receipt from
the State of South Carolina, guaran-
teeing title, weight, grade and deliv-
cry of the identical BALE" said Mr.. Nc
Laurin. 'Such paper is bound to win
its way in the commercial world

Winter Gardens at School.

l. Why have winter gardens at
school?
a. Our schools close in the spring
before any thing except radishes and
lettuce can be harvested. No one
cares to plant what he vii not eat
the fruit of. Schools open in the fall
just when winter gardens may be
planted. The entire cycle o. plant
may be studied from the planting of
the seed to the harvesting of the
vegetable, fruit or flower.
b. We have such a long growing
season that it is a pity not to make
more use of it.
C. Throug1 the children We can in
rerest all in winter gardening. There
should not be a month in the year in
which tie garden does not yield some
vegetable.
d. Fresh vegetables are more
wholesome tAan those put up in cans.
More attention might be paid to win
ter gardening and less TO canning
with greater profit.
2. What shall we plant!
a. Vegetables.
O. September and October:
Lettuce--icicle or Big Boston.

One of the Safest Rooms.

From account in State, 18th.
"Tne room," said DR.. Thompson,
was one of the safest in tie build
ing, but when he got his restraints OF,
which was done by cutting them with
a piece of tin, which he secured in
some unknown way, he pried the W T.
dow guard open. He also prled off
portion of the window facing and with
this pried one of the bars to such an
extent that he made his escape
through the window to the yard,
which was on level with the Win
dow and then his escape was easy"
DR.. Thompson said that every care
lad been taken by asylum officials to
guard the negro.

a. Pansies-Have soil fine and
loose. Fertilize it with we'll rotted
manure. Sow seed and cover care
fully. Spread old burlap sack over
bed for protection.
Sweet Peas-NoT ember is idea.
month for planting sweet peas II
planted earlier they are apt to make
too much stalk and be killed by the
first hard frost. Dig trench IS inch
es deep and about ten inches wide.
Fill in Wit. six inches of we'll rotted
manure, and over that put three lncn-
es of good garden soil Sow the peas
and cover with two inches of soil.
AS the peas grow fill in the soil
around them, little at time. Keep
filling in until the trench is level. The
trench not only protects the peas from
freezing in winter but allows the
plants to make a large root system
whio, protects them from drought.
Lettuce-Sow seed in bed and w-en
plants are large enough to stay cold
rame six inches apart each way. II
allowed to stay in open protect with
leaves or trash. These will not make
heads, while those in the cold frame
will.
Cabbage-Sow seed in the open, pro-
tect with leaves or trash. They Will
remain in tie garden where they W II
soon make good firm heads. Such
plants are sold as first proof plants.
Onions-Plant the sets about six
inches apart in drills two feet apart
and cover with two inches of soil.
For directions for planting bulbs
