If the Teachers Association meets
with US again, we hope the mayor
and chief of police will see that
some place is arranged for these i'm
portant personages, about ten miles
from town, where everybody so de-
string may go out and take a look

see that the teachers and children

The Big Sheriff.
(The Columbia Record.)


One appointment that Mr.. Man
ming has made seems to have
brought general commentator, and
that is the naming of Robert M.
Burts as sheriff of Abbeville county.
This is another case of Cincinnatus.
Mr.. Burts is a farmer. In physique
he is about the size of Jesse Willard,
and he has a backbone that is all in
proportion in size, and in strength.
He has never been n politics.
He is a brother of DR.. C. E. Burts
of Columbia, and of R.. Clyde Burts,
for a number of years a teacher at
Furman University and now super
intendent of city schools at Rock
Hill. Their father, the venerable
R. W. Burts, was for "a years pastor
of old Broadmouth church, and is
one of the best loved and most high
ly respected preachers in the State.
In biographical sketches of this sterl-
ing Christian saint, the two other
sons are. named, but "Bob" is not
mentioned. Just wait, he may yet
be the big man of the family.

Wins in the Debate.

Wofford, Clemson and the College
of Charleston are holding a series
of debates. In the one held at
Charleston last Friday night the af.
firmative side of the query, "Resol.
we'd, that the central Government of
Great Britain in more truly demo.
cratic than the Federal Government
of the United States" was taken by
Robert Hemphill Coleman, and G. L.
Buist Rivers. The affirmative side
was awarded the decision. The
News and Courier says the speeches
were of high caliber and the result
was pleasing to the friends of the
young men.

Flower Seed.

Last year the Civic Club gave
away many pounds of sun-fower
seed over town, and through its
flower exchange distributed many
growing plants to be used in beauti-
flying the town. On account of the
prolonged drouth the seed did very
little good and the town was not a
blaze of yellow flowers as it was
hoped to make it. This year no
sunflower seed will be distributed
but the exchange of flowers will be
kept up and any n applying to the
president will be given flowers to
plant.
Congressman Aiken and Hon. Jas.
M. Baker have both sent the presi-
dent many packages of government
seed and the first applying will re-
ceive them.

H0W'T0 RAISE AND
CAN P|MENTOS

Miss Platt has given out eight
packages of seed in Abbeville Coun-
ty and the following instructions
will be valuable:
Plant seed in hot bed in rows two
inches apart, placing seed one. inch
apart in rows. :
When plants are six inches high
transplant to plat. =
Plat should be in a thoroughly
pulverized condition having been
broadcast with lime before being
SUBSIDIZED.
Lay off COWS 2 IL feet wide, use
8-4-4 fertilizer at the rate of 1000
pounds per acre.
Check with rows 2 IL feet apart
and plant must be set in the check.
Cultivate frequently. When plants
are IL inches high apply nitrate of
soda at the rate of one teaspoonful
to the plant. They respond readily
to this treatment. Keep free of
weeds and grass.
In July your efforts r awarded
with an abundance of lucious pimen-
tos.
Sell as many as possible in the
market. Then comes the canning
season..
Gather peppers early in the norm
ing while crisp with dew. Rub all
dust off with a towel, being careful
not to bruise them.
Cut around stem with g. sharp par
ing knife, withdraw seed burr with
stem, and cut away the walls or par
titions on the inside.
You now have the beautiful red
hollow pods which you place side by
side (never overlap) in a biscuit pan.
Introduce this into a very hot stove
oven. In 10 minutes these pods will
blister. Remove from stove and peel
Immediately. Pack these leathery
pulps into No. 1 cans, four pimentos
to each. a being the commercial
pack.
Cap-exhaust 8 minutes.
Tip-Boil 20 minutes.
Boiling extracts their natural
juices. Never use olive oil with them
because with age it becomes rancid.
The natural oily juice extracted by
boiling in. the cans is far better than
the introduction of olive oil into the
can.
Likewise they may be canned in
half pint glass jars.
