We have been reading week after
week in the local press of Kingstree
citizens who have been rid of dis
tressing kidney and bladder troubles
by Doan's Kidney Pills, and we have
often wondered whether the same
high opinion of this medicine is to
be found in our neighboring towns.

rest.

BIG PEANUT CROP.
MIR. F. NJ. Rogers Gathering a
Good Yield from 300 Acres.

One of the most interesting sights
to be seen on a farm hereabouts is
that on the farms of Mr. Frank M
Rogers, ,Sr,in Back Swamp township,
where at this time he has begun the
harvesting of his large peanut crop.
Mr. Rogers planted this year 300
acres of Spanish and Virginia pea
nuts, which was nothing more thar
an experiment, for nothing like this
great acreage has ever before been
planted in South Carolina. 1t is said
that the next largest acreage plant
ed by any one farmer in this State is
near Bishopville, where some Is or
100 acres are planted.
MIR Rogers began about ten days
ago gathering this new crop, that is,
in this section, and one who has never
seen the peanut crop grown or har-
vested would be amazed were he to
pass along the highway and view the
result. Hundreds of hands, negro
men. women ard children, are en-
ployed in blowing, lifting the vines
with their tubers, stacking and cur
ing them, making ready for picking
and separating.
The vines with their tubers are
stacked in the fields on poles which
have been erected with an arrange
ment at the hottom a foot from the
ground for ventilation. These poles
are placed about fifty yards apart
and in rows the length of the field.
There are several thousand poles or
stacks, which resemble hay stacks,
only they are not so high or SO
bulky, and it certainly is interesting
to pass along and take view of
these farms.
Mr. Rogers will net anywhere from
SO to 120 bushels of peanuts to the
acre, and it is stated that he will be
able to dispose of his entire crop at
90c to 81 the bushel.
1t will be remembered that Mr.
Rogers was the pioneer tobacco
planter in this State, which crop is
the outcome of the News and Cour-
ier's efforts some twenty odd years
ago and which has proved to be a
great big crop in South Carolina.
Mr. Rogers planted no cotton on
his plantations this year, and by his
not doing so he will no doubt be
much benefited. Florence Times.

FINE WINTER FEED.
Mixture Of Cottonseed Meal and
Grain Produces Winter Eggs.

Clemson College, October At
is more than year since the Glenn
son Egg Mash was given to South
Carolina farmers by the poultry
husbandman of Clemson College. In
that time it has increased steadily in
popularity and those who have used
it haye reported the most satisfac-
tory results. With the approach of
winter, farmers are reminded that
it requires plenty of good feed to
make hens lay in cold weather. 1t
is believed that they can find moth
ing better for this purpose than the
Clemson Egg Mash and the formula
for the mash is again brought to
their attention:
Cottonseed meal ........ 100 pounds.
Cornmeal ......-.-.... ............. so pounds.
Ground oats. ........... . SO pounds.
Wheat bran.. ...... so pounds.
Wheat short hort........... so pounds.
Ground lime rock (fertil-
jzer lime) .............. ... 16 pounds.
Ground charcoal ...... IL pounds.
Salt .......--.........- 2 pounds.
Keep this mash IN the poultry
house before the hens all the time.
Use a covered box with Stats around
it, or hopper. so the hens cannot
soil or waste the mash. Do not mix
it with water and feed only once a
day, as in that case the hens would
overfeed and then stand about and
get chilled. When the rnash is fed
dry the hens consume it gradually
as nature intended. The ground
lime rock is fertilizer lime, not the
burnt lime used in whitewashing.
The ground charcoal may be left
out if it cannot be readily obtained,
but always add the salt.

CAPITAL IN
 HOBO BAY MINE

Among the southbound passengers on the Alameda yesterday were Ed- win Eclren. his wife and their sman son. who came down from Valdez on his way to his home in Portland
 Mr. Eckern has taken an option on the Hobo Bay prorer.s ia the Port Wells district and ig ieturning south to raise capital for the development of the properties.
 The Hobo group constitutes Che or. is.nal location which gave Co Hobo Bay its nale and Is considered by mining men to be one of the best showings in the Port Wells district
 The owners of the property have oroven by tunnels and shafts aggre- gat.ng several hundred feet as well as by a large amount Of surface work that the vein contains shoots Of ex- ceptionally rich ore on the Hobo Bay side Of the mountain During the past summer the vein has been traced across the divide Co the Bettles Bay side where some exceptionally rich ore is in evidence at the surface.
 The owners have heretofore relus- ed to set a price on the property pre- ferring to develop the same by their own efforts to such stage as would justify the men asking @ price some where near what they belieced to be the true value
 The soundness of their judgment is proven by the work they have ac- comDrshed. and further proof of their faith in the property as an ultimate producer Is evidenced by the fact that every dollar of the purchase price is to be paid from relatively low per centage of the output of tho same.
 As Mr. Eckern has been identified in promoting other mining enterpris- es in the district which have proven successful as he is familiar with and thoroughly wide-awake to the latent possibilities of the district in general and the Hobo in particular. he should experience no difficulty in interesting the capital necessary to put the Hobo property on a producing basis.
