A public land sale set for the first
business day in January that is at
tricting considerable attention is that
! offered by Hon. w. P. Pollock. Of
! Cheraw. This land is eight miles
from Chesterfield and two miles from
Patrick, on the Old Scotch road, also
known as the Chesterfield -Hartsville
road. The property is near Sugar
Loaf mountain and consists of about
$50 acres. There is a good dwelling
on each Of the two tracts of land
Some lively bidding is expected on
this property.
Ground has been broken for the
i of 4
garage next to the building occupied
| by Hursey Bros. Co. This building
will probably be two stories in height,
the upper flor to be occupied by the
Y. M. C.. A. of Chesterfield, as it
seems to be an assured fact that in
the near future the young men of the
town will have such an organization.
The movement for q town Y. NJ. C.
A. was started through the efforts and
the gift of 500 of Mr.. T. p. Craig,
BY this act Mr.. Craig has forged one
more link in the already strong chain
of affection by which Mr.. Craig is
bound to the people of this town, both
old and young.
1t is understood that McBee is to
have an agricultural school. Detail,
of the movement of this progressive
little town are not YET available, but
it is said that McBee has put up her
share, the Seaboard has put its share
OF the funds necessary, so we suppose
the State will do it's part and there
will be school that will really teach
young farmers what can be done in
these sand hills.
Flour; plain, self-risinR, at
The City Market.
A sure sign that the farmers of this
county are not depending on cotton
any longer is shown in the great num-
Der Of wagons loaded with country
produce, which are seen in town every
day. One farmer of near Chesterfield
sold his chickens at 10 cents per
pound, one hen netting him 70 cents.
Give Sister Hen q chance and she
