BUILT sILo IN TOWN.
w. B. Hussman Of Cottonwood Built
Silo and Filled 1t With Corn.

That some of our business men be-
heve what they preach, and are willing
to set an example and to spend money
to prove their faith in the doctrines
they preach cannot be denied, especial
ly in the case of w. B. Hussman who
has been leading an aggressive cam
paign for the silo. Last spring Mr.
Hussman planted about III acres to
corn on some vacant lots and secured an
excellent yield of corn silage of good
quality that he put into a silo erected
here in town at his barn adiourning the
planning mill Saturday.
The corn was planted the 18th day of
June, which is generally considered
pretty late to plant anything in this
country, but the heavy rains DELAYED
the planting until that time. However,
in spite of this the corn matured suf-
ficiently before frost came to make ex-
cellent feed and exactly 90 days from
the time it was planted it was cut and
put into the silo. he capacity Of the
silo, which heally looks nothing more
than large kraut barrel, is ten tons
and it took about IL acres of this corn
to fill it, or, in other words, a yield of
eight tons of corn silage to the acre
was secured. Mr.. Hussman considers
this only nominal yield as compared
to the possibilities of corn for silage
purposes, and his object was not to pro-
cure the greatest tonnage but to get
fair tonnage of excellent quality, which
cannot be done in this country with the
heavy yielding varieties because the
corn will not mature sufficiently to
ripen the ear in the corn, which he SAYS
is absolutely necessary to make the best
silage. BY this he does not mean that
the corn should be ripe but that it
should be well past the roasting ear
stage when put in the silo. Although
this silo holds only ten tons and it took
only Ia acres to fill it will feed the
average daily ration of 30 pounds per
day, one COW 666 days, or two cows 1913
days, nearly year, or four cows 166
days, nearly 5h months. Probably not
such bad investment even for Mr..
Hussman and, aside from his philan-
throphy, we can see where he will soon
turn the cost of the silo into profits,
even on the small scale that he is
operating .-Cottonw Chronicle.

WITHIN THE TOWN

- March "a has been set as the date
for the inspection Of Co. L, n. G. s.
c.. Of Yorkville.
A thief or thieves etered the home
Of Mr.. H. B. James on West Liberty
street last Thursday night and took a
quantity Of meat from the pantry. Mr..
James had recently purchased hog
and had stored away the meat for fu-
ture use. The thief evidently knowing
Of the purchase, took all the meat
which was missed Friday morning
when a servant went to get a portion
to cook for breakfast.
Business conditions in Yorkville are
improving according to a number Of
business people who were consulted
yesterday. One said that last weeks
business was the best he had had in
six months, and others stated that
they had little cause for complaint.
The number Of travelling statesmen
always present at this season, are
making their appearance, and are Sc
curing orders from Yorkville mer-
chants equal to those they have been
used to having. A representative Of q
Baltimore tailoring concern was in
Yorkville at Thomson Co.'s last week
and secured about as many orders for
tailor-made spring su'-s as he did at
this season last year The tailoring
companies which are represented in
Yorkville by the Kirkpatrick -Belk Co.,
Mcconnell Dry Goods Co., Harshaw-
Cloud Co., Carroll Bros, J. M. Stroup
and others expect to send their rep
resentatives to Yorkville within the
next few days and are confidently ex-
pecting as much business as usual.

bill has been introduced in the
general assembly looking to the aboli-
ton of the state home for Confederate
soldiers. The understanding is that
the matter originated with the United
Confederate Veterans, and quite a
number of different camps have adopt
ed resolutions calling for the abolition
of the home. The Enquirer is not at
all surprised at this development. 1t
will be remembered that we opposed
the establishment Of the home from
the beginning. We took the position
that while there were many veterans
throughout the state who were in need
of state aid, there were very few who
would not prefer to remain in their
familiar surroundings, no matter how
humble. rather than go to such home
as the state would provide. We point
ed out that Notwithstanding the eX-
pressions of patriotic sentiment with
which the Old Soldiers Home move
ment was being pushed, the only thing
behind it was the selfish object of hav-
ing the state make additional eXpendi-
lures for the upbuilding Of Columbia.
But the home was established never
theless, and it has been failure from
the beginning, just as was predicted.
AS a matter Of fact, if ii were not for
large numbers of foreigners who were
in the Federal armies. and who never
had any home ties in this country,
there never would have been any need

IRA HARDIN PASSES,

Mr.. Ira Hardin died at his home in
Blacksburg, last Friday night, follow
ing an illness of only few days. Old
age is supposed to have been the cause
Of his death. Although "a years of
age, his health has been good until
few days before his death. Practical
ly all his life was spent in the open
air and his profession (surveying) led
him into every section Of York, Cher
okee and adjoining counties.
The deceased had many friends in
York county and quite often came to
Yorkville to meet old acquaintances,
who were always glad to see him. UP
until the past few months he has been
actively engaged in his work.
Mr. Hardin was veteran of the
war between the states and his COM
rades say his record was that Of
good soldier.
He was for many years member of
the Blacksburg Baptist church, and
was always considered strong pillar
Of that institution. His funeral was
held at that church Sunday afternoon,
services being conducted by Rev. ]. D.
Bailey Of Cowpens, and the interment
was in the cemetery at Blacksburg.
Mr.. Hardin leaves a widow and the
following children: A. T. Hardin, New
York; F. M, L. s., and A. D. Hardin
Of Atlanta, Ca, and Hon. y. w. Har-
din of Blacksburg.

We are not exactly able to follow
the proposition that the governor is
without power to disband the military
forces of the state, whenever he may
see proper to do so. 1t is easy to con-
ceive of circumstances where 1t might
become necessary for the good and
safety of the state for the governor
to have such power, especially for the
purpose of complete organization.
We do not know enough about the sit
uation to say whether Governor Blease
was justified in his order of January
IL, or whether that order was the best
thing under the circumstances; but
we have had no doubt as to the ef-
fectiveness of it. In our view, there
fore, it would have been better for Gov
ernor Manning to proceed to the re-or-
ganization of the militia, rather than
declare of no effect the order by which
his predecessor sought to disband the
same. However, alls we'll that ends
well, and if the militia does not claim
liberty under the order of Governor
Blease, it will be just as effective may
be as if no such order had been is
sued.

WESTERN TEACHERS MEET

The first meeting of the Western Di-
vision Of the York County Teachers
association for the year 1915, was held
in the Yorkville Graded school last
Saturday, and from point Of attend
ance and interest in the proceedings,
the meeting was one Of the best ever
held. Teachers were present from
some Of the most remote schools in
the division, rough and muddy roads
Notwithstanding.
Miss Cammie Roddey Of the Glover
Graded school, who is president Of the
Western Division, presided and the
exercises were opened with prayer by
Rev. Henry Stokes, pastor Of Trinity
Methodist church. Several musical
numbers by high school students and
others which were rendered at various
times during the meeting were much
enjoyed by the teachers.

the Rock Hill schools, made an inter-
esting address to the teachers on the
subject of Athletics and Organized

The British government it is under
stood, claims that while the Dacia was
purchased from a German owner by
an American citizen, the money was
furnished either by the German own
ers themselves or other Germans, and
the purchase was not bona fide. That
is the showing the British will try to
make against the Dacia in the prize
court proceedings. 1t is claimed in
Great Britain that If the Dacia pur-
chase is allowed to stand. the German
government will easily find way to
release the German ships now interned
in American waters, and the British
determination is said TO be against any
such development. The issue not only
involves the exigencies of war; but
also the question of future competition
in the ocean carrying trade, an exclu-
sive monopoly Of which Great Britain
demands for herself.

The Democrats of the senate hav'

The Democrats of the senate have
agreed in caucus to make the ship pur-
chase bill a party measure and the un-
derstanding is that the bill will now
be pushed on to its passage with some
probability Of it's getting through be-
fore March 4. The Republicans are
fighting the bill on various grounds;
but are making their strongest point
in the claim that the purpose of the
proposition is to purchase the German
ships that now lie interned in Ameri-
can ports and this will necessarily
bring friction with the British govern
ment, and possibly result In war
President Wilson does not allow him
self to be influenced by such claims;
but continues to favor the bill with all
the resources at his command.

on Mr.. McLaurin's recent trip to Wash
ington as a junket, Is entirely gratuit-
Gus. The editor Of The Enquirer was
along on that trip, and he is prepared
to testify that Mr.. McLaurin worked
faithfully and intelligently, and ac-
complished results that have already
become apparent in the securing Of
recognition from the Regional Re-
serve bank authorities of the proper
claims Of the warehouse certificate as
collateral, and we are inclined to think
that this Is another point at which the
shoe Is pinching the owners Of the
Record. The editor Of The Enquirer
does not pretend to have been Of any
value 10 Mr.. McLaurin during the trip,
but as to whether he was or not the
Record has absolutely no concern, for
the reason that the editors expenses
were not paid out of the funds Of the
warehouse appropriation; but entirely
out Of the funds Of L. M. CRISIS Sons
And note that cheap throw off on
Mr.. Price, who has nothing whatever
to do with the matter. Mr.. Price is a
cotton speculator. Sometimes he is a
bull. Then he is popular in the south.
At other times he Is a bear, and then
he Is unpopular. When Mr.. McLaur-
in was in New York during the latter
part Of November, Mr.. Price was q
bull, and practically everybody on the
Stock Exchange was making fun Of
him and claiming that he himself did
not believe what he was talking about.
Whether he did or not, the fact remains
that cotton is now selling a full cent
and a half a pound higher than 1t was
at that time. Bull or bear. popular or
unpopular, abused or praised, 1t Is
fact that Theodore H. Price is prob
ably today the leading authority Of the
world on cotton, and while he Is by
no means infallible, getting burnt
about as often as he burns, he is cap
able of giving valuable pointers on this
subject to anybody.
But we are not hunting any contro-
versy with the Columbia Record on
the subject Of the warehouse or any
thing else. Since James K. Hoyt was
driven away from it, in the way he
was driven, we have had absolutely no
respect for that paper, and we do not
care to waste time or thought or ef-
fort in arguing with it. about the
warehouse question or anything else.
