Destructive Wind and Hal
Storm

Pageland and the section i'm.
mediately north was visited Sun.
day afternoon by one of the
most destructive storms in re
cent years. In a section from
two TO three miles wide and SIX
or seven miles long the hail was
so severe that practically no
crops were left. The hail was
driven by whirling wind which
must have attained a velocity of
seventy or eighty miles an hour,
and a heavy downpour of rain
accompanied the wind and hail.
The cloud came from the
northwest and appeared to thick
en- and gather momentum as ii
came. Mr.. S. F. Ingram saw il
and pronounced it a cyclone be
fore it came. 1t was seen by peo
pie few miles south as a roll
ing, WhIrling black mass NOV
ing at terrific speed. The storm
came between twelve and one
o'clock, and few people realized
that a storm was approaching
until ii was upon them.
The destruction by hail began
about MIR ]. T. Threatt's and
continued as far as Mr.. E. A
Brewers near Miss Maggie
Robeson's Messrs. Ranford
Smith and Joe Terry were In
the northern edge and Pageland
marked the southern.
The most complete destruc-
ton was IN the section just north
east of Pageland. including the
farms of G.. w. Porter, John
Price, ]. w. Clark, D. G.. Lowry,
r. NJ. Clark, T. w. Turner and
others. Crops on many others
farms were damaged so badly
that planting again is consider.

J. l.. Cato, r. A. Carpenter and
many others.
The hail stones were from
very small to nearly the size of a
guinea egg, and il is SAID that
the ground was covered about
Z inches deep in some sections.
The leaves and twigs of the trees
were cut off in great profusion,
and even the bark on the trees
was bruised and cut. Window
panes in many homes were
broken.
The hail RATED in low places
and against fences and other OBJ
struCtions and remained long
time Jeff Turner went out to
the old Turner homestead YES
terday morning, nearly forty.
eight hours after the storm, and
brought a quantity of the hail
back to town. He said he could
have gathered up bushel. He
brought a handful to this office.

about a bushel last night, fifty

Last May liquor money orders
amounting to $l19.65 were issu-

May of this year only one order
for liquor was issued and it was
for $l.00. 1t was issued to a
Union county citizen and the
liquor was shipped to Monroe.
These statements are made for
John Beasley's information, as
he has been saying that Chester
field county citizens are getting
their liquor at Monroe since
April 18th.

Luke Graves was showing
travellers along a certain road
recently how he could induce
a Ford to pass certain other cars,
including Fords and even big
cars. Finally he footed for the
wrong man to clear out and let
him pass. The man was driv-
ing along at a very modest rate
of speed when he discovered
that Mr.. Graves desired to rush
his buzz wagon by. 1t is
claimed that while Luke had
the thing about wide open he
only had time to get about one
more glimpse of the other car as
ii turned the hill in the distance.
Luke has not caught up with it
yet.

BIG PRICE FOR STEERS.

s. w. Brown and J. P. Robert son, cattle buyers of El PaSo, accompanied by Frank M. King the Tucson cattle broker, were in the Patagonia country this week buying cattle, signing con tracts for early June delivery at $32, -$37 and $42. About 1000 head were secured. The price, $32 for yearlings, is slightly higher than that paid last year in this community, although few if any deliveries were made in the spring and in the fall these prices prevailed.
 Cattlemen are feeling relieved now that warmer weather has at last arrived. The cold wealth CT and especially the freezing nights, held back the grass, and while no great suffering of stock was reported, considerable anx- iety was felt. In some places a few cattle were reported to be dying. With the coming of warmer weather. and the con- sequent springing up of better nourishment, it is believed cattle will pull through until rains come. If the usual spring show CTS come-and oldtimers in this part of the state say they never fail in the month of April cattlemen should have the best year they have ever experienced.
 Among the Patagonia cattle growers who signed contracts 1D1 fo Brown and Robertson were: Jas. Parker Sr., Geo. w. and Duke Parker, J. S. Gatlin, Albert, Jesse and Jas L.. Gatlin, Ernest Best, Clyde McPherson, J. I. Jones, B. Lewis and Pete Ber- gier. -Patagonian.

TUNGSTEN IS "kEY METAL"

The National City Bank of New York, has called attention to the importance of tungsten as a key material in pamphlet mailed throughout the country.
 Tungsten is the necessary element in high speed" steel tools. There are several other rare metals with practically the same properties, but they hardly count in practice. America gave the world high speed" steel, the tungsten steel, which retains it's temper and edge even when it becomes red hot through rapid cutting into the carbon steel which it is machining. By means of it a lathe and work man can de many times the amount of work that could be done with the hardest tools of ordinary metal.
 It is a very important mate rial. It is running short even in England now, and Sheffield workmen are searching for it when they leave their machines after the days work is done. Tungsten steel is going higher in price.
 Tungsten is, therefore, an ab- solutely essential key" mate rial in modern manufacture. A nation that can shut competi- tor nation out of it's supply of tungsten can perhaps shut it out of markets through forcing LID it's manufacturing costs:
 Tungsten might also win or lose 8 war between countries producing their own munitions.
