 General Purpose Fowls
 These fowls are elassed as general purpose fowls. laying large brown eggs. and being generally regarded as heavy layers. The hans get broody. sit, hatch and rear chicks and the latter are us- ually strong and active. growing rap- idly to maturity.
 When full grown. these fowls attain from eight to 10 pounds weight for males and 6h to 7is pounds in weight for females. They are docile and readily confined by comparatively low fence. Their beautiful rich greenish-bisck plumage does not easily show the soil of confinement, and the fowls will ns- ually do well in small places. These qualities make the Black Java desirable for the small backyard or home flock. They will be comparatively easy to handle under limited conditions and will do much toward converting table scraps and waste into profitable eggs and table poultry.

ENQUIRER on ADVERTISING.

There Is no newspaper, perhaps i'll
the State, pursuing SO independent an
attitude rs the ycrkvillc Enquirer.
This newspaper never solicits adver-
tising. and always carries fine Qnc,
getting good rates fC/ the space used.
Seldom does this newspaper talk
shop" and whenever IT does there is
generally something In what is said.
The following is from one Of those
talks on the advertising business MS
seen by Editor Grist:
All kinds Of business are now un-
dergoing most serious depression.
because of this depression most peo-
p1G are trying to economiZe In every
possible way, and AZ measure OF
economy some are curtailinE their
advertising. In some cases they are
undoubtedly right, and personally We
have no complaint. We positively do
not want anybody to advertise IN The
Enquirer unless they think 1t will tc
profitable. But this Is u fact: II this
depression Is going to be permanent.
then It Is no use for anybody to ad-
vcrtise; but II It Is to be only tempo
rnry. and that is what most Of us hope
and believe then the best thing for
the business man who expects to par
ticipatc in tho better time a-coming Is
TO keep himself prominently and con-
tin,rously before the public. Otherwise
when the revival comes. lie may wake
up to find that others have stepped In
and taken his place, anu he has been
lost in the shuttle.
The Anderson intelligencer. [volume] (Anderson, S.C.) 1914-1917, 1915-03-16

there was no restrictions placed on
and Ia consequence anyOn" could get
any amoun. AT ANY lime and as often
as they wished With the present
law enforced rs tho companies in
tend 10 enforce il. there will be- few
violations. The Intclligenccr is pleas
ed 10 learn that The local company
will adhere strictly TO the letter Of
the law. 1t is now against ,In law 10
keep any liquor in any club or public
place. and there has been al Or,li-
nance passed by ih" city council pro-
vihing for this in Anderson.
This law is Il step in the right dircc-
ton and is one more advancement to-
ward prohibition. II Will not be long
till tie shipment Of any liquor will
be prohibited anywhere, and then will
the prohibition laws really prohibit.
All this tends to strict temperance.
The following thoughts by Elbcrt
Hubbard are To the point:
No one claims that Il man Is Il bet
ter man because he drinks. or that he
is IL worse man il he does not.
Drink at best is no advantage; at
It's worst II Is terrible handicap.
The use OF strong drink has no sur
vival value SOmcti/.cs there Is Il
penalty attached
The habit of using alcoholic stimu-
Innts in moderate quantities tends to
grow.
II may .,icn itself on the lndivi-
dual. get ,..c better OF his will. para
lyze his good intentions, destroy his
ambition. throttle his animation. so
that efficiency is reduced. and he he
comes Of little worth tJ the world.
He then may lose his Job. and men
out of job are sh,.nncd by other
men They have nothing the world
wants: they can not do anything very
often that the world wants done-this
IL the assumption.
