f1oated off the country above. There
were saw-logs. stumps and trees,
small buildings and dead animals. A
roaring. seething mass of muddy wa
ter and debris. For several days the
hillsides were crowded. with people
watching to see the dam give way.
Finally the water began to run over
and 1t had also cut a small channel
through the soft embankment of earth
which had been thrown up to protect
the dam. The water had been backed
up the river for several miles above
Richmond, and when the dam gave
way, the water and drift-wood rushed
down with relentless force through
the valley filling it from hill to hill,
and causing destruction to the mill
properties below. The dam was torn
out, the head gates to the race de-
stroyed, fences and small buildings
carried away. Fortunately the fam
lily escaped from the valley to the
hills. For q time it looked as II the
foundation of the building would be
undermined.
Happy valley was entirely submerg.
ed except few feet in front of the
barn-door where the cow, the dog and
three pigs took refuge. 1t was twenty
four hours before the flood subsided
so that a man on horse back could
reach the building and report the ex
tent of the damage.

we will return your money, just as

or if not found the best remedy ever

Why not take advantage of this guar

Compelling School Attendance.

The prosecution of parents for not sending
their children to school is commendable. When
fathers and mothers permit their offspring to
absent themselves from school, they are working
a hardship on the children. Not the parents but
the children are the real sufferers. The state
owes it to society to insist that every child within
it's jurisdiction be given sufficient schooling to
enable them to face the struggles Of life without
too heavy handicap. When parents too negli-
gent or ignorant to appreciate this truth, keep
their children from school, then the state must
step in to protect itself.
It seems strange that years ago when educa-
ton was not brought to the very doors of the
homes, parents appreciated it's worth and often
put themselves to considerable expense and in
convenience to have their children schooled
Many father and mother who did not have the
opportunity Of obtaining an education them
selves, realized it's Importance so much that they
considered it priceless boon. Many profess
sonal man of today is the son of parents who
could scarcely read and write. This handicap i'm
PEELED such parents to insist that their children
were not left in the same plight but were edu
Gated.

Not an American Evil, Solely.

The reign Of anarchy at Youngstown, Ohio,
has ended. Soldiery and the sober senses of the
persons involved have by this time stayed furth-
damage was done to property. human lives were
butchered, and Youngstown has been given no.
toriety which will not down for many years.
Carping critics Of American life may point to
the Youngstown riots as an argument that
American institutions are weak and that Ameri-
cans are prone to Jump to excuses whenever
their mitigation reaches fever heat and a leader
suggests the use of fire and guns.
The Youngstown affair is deplorable one,
but the persons who took part in it, and the
causes that melted them to forget law and de-
cency, are not whit worse than persons in Eu-
rope and provocative conditions that exist there.
Scenes of murder and arson have followed
many an outbreak of excitement in European cit
les, and the damage that has been done there by
disorderly mobs is tenfold what actually took
place in Youngstown.
Men the same the world over. In all of
us reigns the same evil desire, and when this

Youngstown does not deserve condemnation and
reproach, but commiseration and pity. The world
ought to be charitable enough to appreciate how

induced to do the evil thing. Perhaps hundreds
who took part in the and murder in the
Ohio city, today are filled with remorse and re-
grets, and wonder how they could have forgotten
themselves far as to take part in the orgies
that were enacted.

A FLOOD in WHITEWATER.

The Oldest Inhabitants could not re-
call such flood as was seen In the
valley IN January. ie47. The country
for miles north of Richmond was COW
cred with water, the smaller streams
were out Of their banks. and the river
west OF Richmond was overflowing.
A very high plank dam had been
built just north of the present site OF
the Starr Piano factory. Basil Bright
well had built this dam with the in
tention of holding the entire stream of
water, only releasing it in sufficient
quantities to run his mill. This would
have ruined the mills below. His
friends demonstrated telling him he
would ruin his dam as well as injure
his neighbors. The dam was nearing
completion when the flood came. 1t
furnished lodgment for all the drift

ruined the property OF another, as
well as bankrupting himself. Public

caused him to commit suicide Such q
flood must be seen to be fully appre-
ciated.

AFTER HARMONIOUS WORK
ARE ON VERGE OF CLASH.

Majority Leader Kitchen is Striving
to Reach Working Agreement.
Washington-House Democrats and
Republicans. after having worked to-
gether harmoniously for four and a
half months, are on the verge Of a
clash over the legislative program for
t:e remainder OF the session.
The majority, because of carrying
out the wishes OF the house in push
ing through the Philippine and ship
ping bills as quickly as possible, is
threatening to invoke drastic rules
which will insure the measures right
Of way. The minority while making
no threats are conducting what ap-
pears to be mild fnbuster on the
agricultural appropriation bill and
urging consideration Of the fortifca-
tions or appropriation measures in
lieu Of the Presidents special meas
ures.
Minority Leader Mann says he is
willing to come to an agreement with
the Democrats but that 'the White
House can't tell US what we must do"
and he is waiting for the Democrats
to make the next move. In the mean
time the Democrats are having many
conferences in Majority Leader Kitcb-
ms Office in an endeavor to reach a
working agreement while on the floor
such problems as poisoning coyotes,
fighting the hessian fly and preserving
the buffalo are being discussed at

WORK IN THE FARM WOODLO7
Location viii Depend Upon Various
Conditions Culture Re-
auires Intelligent Work.

Forest culture is as much Of an art
as is corn culture. A good woodlot,
like good corn field, is the result
Of applying intelligent methods to
produce a full, valuable crop. A corn
field with fail spots. empty hills.
feeble stalks, and half-flled ears is
neither g credit to the farm nor
paying investment for the farmer. No
more is a woodlot half stocked with
inferior trees. When timber is cut Is
the time Of all times to apply forestry.
The way in which tho cutting is done
will determine what the subsequent
condition of the woodlot will be.
There is q difference between farm
woodland and the farm woodlot. Farm
woodland is farm land which has not
yet been cleared. Farm woodlot is a
term which might best be used to
mean part Of a farm permanently
devoted to timber production, under
a sound plan Of farm management.
The size and the location Of the wood
lot will depend upon various con-
siderations, Of which the most i'm
portant are the home needs Of the
farm, the character Of the land, and
the present and prospective market
for material from the woodlot.

CLEANING UP FIELD STONES
Problem Of Vital Importance to Many
Farners-Drag Made Along Lines
Shown Is Practicable.

How to get rid Of surplus field
stones with the least labor is a prob
lem Of vital interest to many farmers.
While clearing up a stony farm we
have tried out many ways Of handling
the work. At one time we built spe.
cial tool for gathering up small stones,
says writer in Rural New Yorker. It
was, IN effect, an "a" drag, with the
wide opening ahead. The stones and
clods are left in windrows about seven
feet apart. When hauling away the
windrows the wagons can be loaded
from both sides. A few years ago we
cleared an excessively stony field Of
seven acres at a cost Of s35 for the
time Of the men employed. AS made
by Us the tool was not entirely salts
factory; but the idea seems so well
The Manning times. [volume] (Manning, Clarendon County, S.C.) 1884-current, 1916-04-26

worth developing that we give full de.
tails. We found a 37s-inch clear space
between teeth was too wide, and haly.
ing it by inserting more teeth made
the teeth too close. A clear space Of
21s inches would be about right. The
teeth should be heavy enou h to be
rigid. We used half-inch steel rods
and had so much trouble with the
teeth bending that We finally aban-
doned the use Of the tool. The teeth
should have length Of eight inches
in the clear. We found trouble in ad.
justing the hitching to conform to
varying conditions Of soil, the drag
fitting forward or backward too much.
We believe that drag made along the
lines indicated and provided with
wheels at the corners would be a good
practical tool for clearing ground Of
small stones, provided the soil can be
first put in good condition. It would
be pretty expensive on lumpy ground.
