Bank Will Furnish the Money.
Rock Hill September 4: At a meet
ing Of the board Of directors of the
Peoples National bank, it was unani-
mously decided to authorize n loan
ing of money to farmers who desired
to feed cattle during the winter. Many
of the directors being farmers, all
agreed that no farmer could make q
better investment than to purchase
cattle for feeding. provided he was
prepared to feed them. The manure
obtained will be of incalculable bene-
fit in lieu Of potash. With the build
ing Of the cattle pens here n the
establishment of a cattle market 1t is
expected that the interest in feeding
cattle will increase rapidly. Farmers
in position to feed cattle a pur-
chase in the fall and feed about four
months. The gain in weight will car
nv the interest, at least, while the
farmer will have a goodly amount OF
in addition. The action AIKEN
by the bank officials will no DOUBT
enable a large number to purchase cat,
tie for feeding purposes. n 1atteo
cattle can be disposed OF during the
market days next winter.
Many Students at Winthrop.

more than nine hundred students en-
rolled, the 1915 fall term at Winthrop

cards had not been tabulated this az
ternoon, but it is known there are
more than nine hundred young laales

studies. The opening exercises in the
chapel at 9 o'clock were, as usuai,
highly interesting. Seated on the
stage with President Johnson were

Nathan Matthews and w. j. Nelson,
and Hon. w. ]. Cherry. Music by the
glee club was enjoyed. Rev. w. j.
Nelson offered the invocation, while
Rev. Mr.. Matthews read the
lesson. DIR. Wells. Judge Cherry and
Mayor Hardin made brief talks. well
coming the student body back to c
Hill. President Johnson made a brler
address Of welcome, mingled with
words Of counsel and advice. Immedi-
.ately after the chapel exercises . the
registration cards were filled in and
during the afternoon the work OF &C
auainting themselves with the sched-
ules Of classes was undertaken by the
students. Thursday morning actual
studies will be commenced. The en-
rollment is considerably higher than
previously and the institution is taxed
to it's capacity to accommodate this
number. AS it is more than five
hundred applications could not be on
sidered. An additional dormitory Is
badly needed. The students have
been arriving for several days. but the
majority came in Tuesday evening on
a special, there being nine coaches
filled with young ladies from every
part Of the state. The train was ope.
rated to the rear campus, making II
more convenient for the students.
