Monroe Blythe OF Cades. S. c.. spent
few days this week with their
people in Waxhaw.
The leading game in Waxhaw at
present is that of checkers. And all
day long the game is going on some
where and many good players are be-
ing developed. There is talk of a
match game some of these days for
the championship of the town to be
pulled of where the players north of
the railroad will be pittetd against
the players on the south side.
Mr.. ]. II. Hall Of Pleasant Valley
was in town last Saturday with a
bunch of Sudan grass. the tallest
stalk of which measured about nine
feet. The grass enjoys a very lux
uriant growth on high dry land and
makes the finest grade OF hay. 1t
can be cut five times year. In APP
pearence il resembles grass that
grows on low marshy places and at
glance il might be taken for John
son grass. but il is very different
from any of these grasses. Mr. Hall
started in to experiment with the
grass back in the spring. He planted
the seed a little after cotton planting
time and has already mown his patch
three times. The seed has TO be sown
every year as the roots do not survive
the winter. II makes a fine fedd for
stock and il will stand almost any
kind of drought. II is well suited
to much of the farm lands in this
community
At City Point, Virginia. is one of
the biggest powder plants in the
world. 1t is plant that has grown
up like mushroom. so to speak. Its
growth and development is traceable
TO the great war in Europe. Its EN-
ployees are drawn from all over
America and nearly all nationalitles
excepting Germany are represented.
The lowest wages for labor at this
plant is $3.50 per day. Carpenters
who are fairly proficient draw over
Sc day. City Point is near Peters
burg and the big powder plant has
two boat landings on the river. The
stories told in this community by
some of the employees going hither
and thither sounds like some of the
Arabian tales. II is said that o.
600 laborers are now at work in the
plant and that 5000 carpenters are
working with haste to erect plant
of equal capacity TO the one now in
operation. The city is protected from
invasion by a barbed wire fence
eleven feet high arranged so that a
rabbit cannot get through. The
laborers are all numbered and wear
badges and enter and leave the city
only with the consent of the bosses
and by the use of many pass words.
countersigns etc. Some five or ten
people are killed daily by accident.
Those whose remains can be located
are dispatched to the place from
whence they came. but those who al

big tanks containing the powerful
acids are Immediately dissolved in
the fluid and their carcasses are fur
Their used in the manufacture of pow
der. At the landings boats are al
ways being loaded with the death
dealing products for the destruction
of our brothers across the waters. II
is said that England has given Mr..
DUPONT a contract for all the powder
he can make in two years at three
times the regular price.

neither peace nor prosperity for I6
years." said Parson Jones.
THE present war" declared he,
will continue until men are few in
numbers. There will be great con-
fusion in Washington and other
parts of America. The spirit told me
10 come here and say TO the people
OF this city that they will not have
peace or prosperity again in 16 years.
Washington is TO be one of four great
cities terribly afflicted and rich men
are TO be dragged down TO poverty
by continuous war"
Jones said that he read in Isaiah,
third chapter. that the men of Eu-
rope would be thinned out-almost
obliterated-by war.
The negro prophet came here
week ago to sound his note of warn
ing. He goes from here to Philadel-
phia and thence to ST. Louis to warn
the people of those cities.
Il have known OF the approach of
the war in Europe since 1888" said
he. | gave the people of the United
States their first solemn warning of
il April IA. 1904. when said. There
will be war across the water that this
country will be drawn into until
blood touches blood
"Since 1884 have travelled the
country to warn the people. have
walked four times from Richmond
to Washington and once from New
York TO Boston on this mission
Jones claims that he predicted in
1902 the great fire that swept over
Baltimore in 1904. He saw in a
vision the San Francisco earthquake.

You knew him?'' asked the war
master, ''in-in life?"
Il killed him. said the Corsican.
Il hanged his son at Lonceville be-
cause he would not guide US through
an ambushed valley. He was a peas

bedridden. The shock, administered
by me, killed him."

amends"

"And what Of other-of other things

Each in it's turn said the Corsi-

The war master leaned across the

''You mean" he choked, ''that that

''Or you,' said the Corsican in his

The war master stood up.

with the processes of oxidation and ro-

ais, depending on the nature of their
work, diet and other conditions Care
ful experiments have shown that the
average man under normal conditions
REQUIRES about fifteen milligrams of
iron per day. The average woman is
supposed to require about eight-tenths
as much food as man and the same
proportion of iron will suffice. A child
that needs half as much food requires
the same proportion of iron.
AS long as infants are drinking milk
they get only a small amount of iron.
but it is interesting to know that
certain amount has been stored in
their systems at birth to tide them
over until they get diet which con-
ta1ns it's share of iron.
Beefsteak and some vegetables are
rich in iron. In meat the iron exists
largely as hemoglobin, due to the blood
contained in the muscular tissues.
Iron in combination with protein mat

in grains. String beans, navy dried
beans, lima beans, spinach especial
ly, cabbage and dried peas are rich
in iron. Among the fruits that have
plenty of iron are dried prunes, apples
and raisins.
