Look Out For 1t.

1t is said that the whiskey forces
are planning to spring story to
the effect that negroes are being
registered in South Carolina by the
prohibitionists to vote in the elec-
ton in September. We don't know
whether they will stoop this low or
not but it is common report that
they are waiting until what appears
to be the most opportune time to
spring it.
We don't believe the good peo-
pie of South Carolina will be fooled
by this report. They know that
the prohibition leaders in this state
are men of too high character to
resort to such tactics. If the ne.
groes are registeringit is on their own
accord-certainly not because they
have been urged to do SO by the
white prohibitlonists.
Personally we doubt whether
those negroes who are registering
are registering for the purpose OF
voting for prohibition. Spartan.

sene oil and salt. Do not use lard.
He is of the opinion that mites are
the worst pest. They can be re-
duced to a minimum by using kero-
sene and whitewash on the roosts
and about the fowl house. Sore
head among little chickens is fre-
quently caused by allowing them to
roost in coops that have formerly
housed older chickens. 1t can be
treated by applying caustic to the
wart-like blisters that first appear on
the head of chickens.
Prof. Stewart is a practical poul-
try raiser and fancier, having paid
as high as $25.Oo for one pure-bred
chicken. Relating his experience
will be helpful to those who heard
him Thursday.
At the close of the speaking by
these specialists, dinner was an
nounced, and a welf-cooked and
faultlessly seasoned barbecue din,
ner was served for the benefit of the
school, additional improvements on
the building being contemplated.
Soon after dinner a goodly num-
Der of farmers assembled in the
school house and organized them,
selves into the Cleora Farmers Club
by the election of Mr.. L. R. Brun-
son, president; Mr.. T. B. Morgan,
vice-president, and Mr.. T. A. Will,
liams, secretary.
The second annual institute was a
success, and will prove helpful to
all farmers who heard the instruc'
tive addresses. 1t will not be long
before tentative plans will be form.
ulated for the holding of the third
annual institute next July.
Success to the Cleora Farmers
Club!

Very Delightful Occasion.
Cold Spring, S. G..

Much to the delight of the young
pleasure seekers of Edgefeld the
party spirit has spread to the sur
rounding out-of-town districts, and
often the hill tops may be seen for,
some distance brilliant with the
lights of the japanese lanterns.
The hospitable home of Mr.. Broad
water was the scene of one of these
parties on last Friday evening when
Miss Evelyn entertained in honor of
her guest-cousin, Miss Efie Broad
water of Grovetown. The guests
were from Edgefeld, Trenton and
the surrounding country. At nine
o'clock the parlor was filled with
young people enjoying the music
and each others company, and wait
ing for the hostess to pronounce the
evenings entertainment, which each
and all hoped and expected wonld
be the popular progressive .conversa-
tion.
In due time tally cards were pre-
sented to the guests, aud they be-
gan to fill the blanks rapidly with
the names of the ones with whom
they were to talk. When the bell
tapped the young people scattered
about, some finding seats in the par
lor, others on the porch, on the
lawn, or else in the luxurious auto
mobiles which had brought some of
the guests. Each conversation lasted
FIVE minutes. Rich and refreshing
punch was served at all times dnr-
ing the evening by Miss Annie Sue
Broadwater. When the twenty con-
versations had been completed the
refreshments, consisting of pink and
white block ice cream, was served
to the guests scattered about where
ever they might be found.
Strange to say for Edgefeid the
weather was delightfully."- cool, which
added to the gay spirits of the boys
and girls.
About twelve o'clock they began
to bid their hostess and her visitor
adieu, and left for their different
homes wondering how the appointed
time for their stay slipped by so
quickly.

tiful. Her devot tion to her children
and her children to her was lovely.
Mrs. Talbert united with the church
when quite young and lived a de-
voted christian life. She loved her
church and often spoke words of
appreciation to her pastor. Mrs.
Talbert had been in declining health
for several years. All that could
be done by a faithful physician and
loving hands that cared for her
night and day, could not stay the
hand of death. The end came
peacefully Sunday afternoon and
her pastor Rev. j., 7. Llttlejonn
conducted the funeral service Mon
day afternoon.
She leaves FIVE children and 3 host,
tof friends and relatives to mourn
her loss. She was 76 years old at,
her death. She will be missed in,
the community, in her church and
in her home. But we mourn not as
those who have no hope. Blessed
are the dead who die in the Lord
We extend our prayers and sympa-
thy to the loved ones.

that they add to as we'll as take
from the fertility of the soil. Mr..
Barton urged the farmers present 10
send to Clemson College for free
bulletin A on Vetch and Clovers,
and the bulletin on Agriculture for
the School and Farm.
The next speaker introduced was
Prof. Stewart, also Of. Clemson Col
lege, who discussed poultry raising
| in all 5of its details. He said that
here in the South we look upon the
cottonscrop as being the most valua-
BILE crop, whereas chickens through
ont the United States yield more
annually than the entire cotton crop
is worth. He urged the importance
of having well-bred chickens, as no
profit can be realized from mengrel
breeds Prof. Stewart also stressed
lthe ssitances Of selecting proper
feed, balanced feed. Corn alone
is not a balanced feed. He recon-
mended equal parts of corn, wheat,
oats and Kafir corn as balanced
feed. Fowls should always be sup
piled with an abundance of fresh
water. Troughs should be filed in
the afternoon and reflled the next
morning if necessary. In winter
troughs are neglected and allowed
to remain frozen. yet chickens are
expected to lay and make normal
growth when thus neglected. When
feed is given it should be thrown in
straw so that chickens will be forced
to take moderate amount of exer-
else. They should be fed very early
in the morning or given more late in
the afternoon than they will eat.
Prof. Stewart advocates feeding a
dry mash composed of wheat bran,
corn meal and beef scraps. The
mash should be balanced just as the
other feed,
He does not advocate expensive
houses. Occasionally Northern peo-
pie come South and make a failure
of poultry raising because they
erect close, expensive houses with
glass windows as they do in cold
climate. The poultry house should
face the south and the southern end
or side should be enclosed with wire
and the other three sides made of
boards solid, leaving no crack or
knot hole chat will create draft on
the chickens. One side open with
three closed will afford fresh air
without the draft.
Prof. Steward spoke at some
length of the most prevalent diseases
and THAR treatment. What is known
as Timber neck among chickens is
caused by ptomaine poison, result
ing from eating dead rats or other
decayed flesh. He strongly advised
against throwing chicken heads and
such things about the premises.
They decompose and when eaten by
chickens frequently cause Timber
neck. This is a summer disease,
seldom being seen in winter, as at
that season the cause does not ex-
ist. This disease can be cured if
treated early by administering one
half teaspoonful of turpentine and a
like portion of castor oil. Prof.
Stewart is of the opinion that there
is very little of the disease COM
monty called cholera. 1t can be
prevented by constant use of dis
infectants, liberal use of whitewash,
and by allowing no stagnant water
about the premises. In speaking of
insects, he said the gray louise causes
mora deaths than any other insects.
He advised against using prepared
remedies. The lice can be killed by
a mixture of cotton seed oil, kero-
