A Wise Selection

A. j. r. in Easley Progress.
Relative to the selection of Rev. D. w.
Hiott by the Head Camp as represen-
tative to the Sovereign Camp, w. O.W.,
to be held in July, it may be considered
very worthy choice, indeed. The long,
faithful services of Rev. D. w. Hiott
in Woodcraft, coupled with his years of
successful, jealous labors as a minister
OF the Gospel, with his capacity as an
impromptu speaker, added to his init
mate relations with Masonry and other
fraternal organizations, both in fiduciarv
and membership capacities, his large
fund of general information, gained bv
extensive reading, study and travel.
and stored in level head, abundantlv
quallfy him as distinguished and hon.
orable representative; so that the noble
order of Woodmen of Pickens county
may well rest assured that their inter.
ests will be wisely and carefully looked
after at ioe meeting of the SOVEREIGN
Camp.

Death of Mrs. Elizabeth Ligon

Elberton, Ga. On the 10th day of
March, 1917, Sister Ligon was in her
usual health and performed her daily
labors of love for her family; at ten
o'clock she walked over to a near neigh
boris, Mr.. T. Durham, where she was
suddenly stricken with paralysis. Skilled
physicians were called, but their efforts
proved vain. The Master had called,
and at 2 o'clock Sister Ligon fell asleep
in Jesus blessed sleep from which
none ever wake to weep" She was a
member of the Fortsonia Baptist church,
which was organized in January Of this
year. Her remains were peacefully laid
to rest in the new church cemetery,
hers being the first grave.
A large concourse Of sorrowing rela-
tives and friends attended as she was
laid to rest. Her husband, Bro. T. j.
Ligon, and family moved to Ebert
county from Pickens, S. c., a few years
ago. They are an honest, God-fearing
people and have endeared themselves to
all with whom they have come in con-
tact. The sympathy Of our entire COM
munity is extended them in their sad
bereavement. S. c. HUDSON.
Mrs. Ligon had many relatives and
friends in Pickens county.

Death at Six Mile

During the past few days there Have
Deen many visits, but one special visitor
came into our midst last week. Every
one recognized him and still we feel the
SAD influence he left. He was Mr..
fhysical Death. On March 26 he Wis
lted the home of Mr. and Mrs. P. w.
Willimon and claimed as his victim Mrs.
Ellen Mccoy Garrett. For three weeks
ana TWO days Mrs. Garrett had suffered
awful agonies. At first she was strick-
eh with pneumonia and after having
oeen relieved Of that, heart dropsy set
IN. Dr. Woodruff was her faithful ply
sician' and with her loving friends and
relatives did all that humans could do
TO save her life, but the Great Life
glVer saw fit to call her to her eternal
reward. On the following day the
corpse was carried to Mt. Olive, where
the funeral ceremony was conducted by
Dr. l.. G. Clayton, thence to the Six
Mile cemetery, where the'body was in
TERED beside that of her husband Aaron
Garrett, who preceded her there eight
years. Also she was preceded to the
grave by three small children-two girls
(twlns) and one little boy, four years of
age, called by the family Little lobby. ,
She is survived by six children, as fol-
lows: Rev. j. r. Garrett of Central,
Z. W. Garrett of Knoxville, Tenn.
Mrs. Lizzie Hoover of Jacksonville, Fla.
Mrs. j. E. Merck of Central, Mrs. P.
w. Willimon of Central, and Mrs. John
Willimon of Oklahoma.
We believe she was indeed goot
woman. She had been a member of 8
christian church from childhood and was
seventy-five years of age Among the
saddest relatives is her little grand
daughter whom she raised from infanc,
to be about ten years old. This wa.
Ellen, daughter of C. w. Garrett. Sh,
left Sunday for his home in Knoxville
The many friends and relatives have
our sympathy during these dark hours

A Timely Letter
From w. w. Long
TO All Men and Women Demo,..u

| 49, Wotiien demonstration
Agents in South Carolina:
The conditions, as being reported of
the food crops of the world if not alarm.
ing are serious. This is especially true
~hen we realize that the reserves vii,
be exhausted at the end of this cro,,
year.
IT IS reported that the English wheat
crops exceedingly backward. The Dutch
crop IS small. The French crop is very
much less than usual, and what is moat
alarming Argentina will have wheat or
corn to export, The Australian wheat
crop IS reported SO, 900, 600 bushels less
than last years The statement is made
that the English government has con.
tracted for the entire surplus of this
years wheat crop Of Canada. Wheat
IN the winter growing states in our
country has suffered much for want Of
moisture. Early vegetables in the
southern States have been destroyed b.
recent freezes Coming nearer home.
the prospects for wheat and oat crops
IN South Carolina arc the most discour-
aging in years. The season is very
backward and, therefore, little garden
ing has been done in this state.
| The country is virtually in state Of
war and we have every reason to expect
that IN short time thousands of young
men may be called from the fields to
arms. Therefore, it is necessary to i'm
press upon all classes Of our people the
urgent need Of growing all vegetables
Tor table use and for canning purposes.
You should take this matter up not
only with the farmers but with the Of
ficIals of cities and villages and bring
about organizations for the cultivation
OF vacant lots in food crops. Chambers
OF commerce, women'S clubs and every
agency should he appealed to to assist
in this most important work. The pro.
duction of forage crops on large areas,
particularly the velvet bean. Sorghum,
Soudan grass, cowpers and SOY beans,
is urgent The acreage in corn should
be greatly increased.
Thel greatest care should be taken
with spring pigs. Hogs arc now selling
in the northern markets at Is ga cents
a pound on foot; beef cattle from 10 tt
IL cents pound on foot, with ever,
prospect Of increasing. The acreage Of
sweet potatoes should be increased many
fold. Every farmer should plant cror
OF fall potatoes the Lookout Mountain
variety if obtainable.
With the food supply Of the world in
its present condition we may be assured
OF profitable demand for all food crors
we owe 1T to ourselves and our country
TO 10 produce the necessary supplies for
the family, and in the event that war is
declared, for tho men who arc perform
ing their patriotic duty. The ndca-
tons are that for the first time since
the Civil War we will be unable to M,
chase supplies from other countries
Therefore it is imperative that we pro-
duce them at home. This possibility Of
shortage may bring some of our peopie
to actual suffering.
If you think wise have this article
published in your local paper. Cal
your bankers, merchants and farmers
in conference so that the most powerful
influences may be put in motion for the
growing Of necessary food crops for man
and beast. Respectfully,
w. W. LONG, Director
Clemson Collcrp. March % 1917
