tend. Prof. Hare is a very interest
ing talkcr and is authority on any
subject pertaining to poultry. He is
no theoretical chicken crank, but from
experience and study has mastered
the subject of poultry-arisin in
South Carolina. All of his ideas and
suggestions are SO practicable and can
be carried out by ameteur poultry
raiscrS.
Prof. Hare has gotten out bulle-
tin on" Poultry Culture in South
Carolina" Anyone can get this
(free of chargc) by applying to their
county agent. 1t is sent out by Glenn
son College. am sure when this
is read by those interested in poultry
raising, and they get some idea Of
how much Prof. Hare can help them,
why, they will put down everything
and come and hear his talk next time.
He says there is great opportu-
nifty for the people of South Carolina
TO raise poultry very profitably be-
cause the feed for chickens can be
raised in this State at such small
cost. One of the members told of
getting forty-ninc cents per pound
for broilers and twenty-six cents per
pound for hens. OF course the poul-
try has to be shipped to bring these
prices and Prof. Hare has offered to
come down and show US how to dry
pick and pack the poultry for ship
ping. Anyone having birds to ship
can apply to Mrs. F. P. Erwin of
Manning and she can tell them the
best markets and so on.
The association hopes to have a
fine display Of birds at their show
IN connection with the County Fair
this fall. In a short while the pre-
MUM list committee VIII go to every
merchant and business man in the
town Of Manning and give each one
an opportunity to help on this prom
lslng industry in the county. We
hope they will respond literally so
that the association will have a nice
lot OF premiums to offer.

DAVIS STATION.

At last weeks end this community
was saddened by the deaths of two
of its most widely connected and hon
ored members, which occurred within
little more than an hour of each other.
Mre. j. w. Hilton passed away
about eleven o'clock Saturday morn
ing. She had been for years in fail
ing health, and at the last was so
great a sufferer that she welcomed
death as a relief She vas buried at
Summerton. Her husband and sew
eral children survive her.
A few minutes past twelve of the
same day Miss Rebecca Shorter died
at the advanced age of about eighty.
She was known or related to practi-
cally everyone in the country round,
and was notable woman in her gen
erosity to her church. She gave the
land on which Bethlehem Methodist
church was built, and she was buried
from this church Sunday morning at
IL o'clock. To the great regret of all

Rev. w. O. Henderson, who was to
have funeralized Miss Shorter, was
unavoidably delayed, and did not
reach there until after the burial. Mr..
Henderson also regretted that he was
not waited for, and proposed to preach
a memorial sermon for Miss Shorter
on Sunday next at p. m. This was
arranged for.
The Davis Station school is now
busily engaged in trying to round up
a good years work. Commencement
is only about seven weeks off Today
at about two o'clock we expect to
have Prof. Browne, county supcrin-

Prof. F. G.. Hare, poultry husbandman

BACKING UP PROOF
The Kind That Manning People Can
not Deny.

Many an earnest ming man or
woman has publicly endorsed Doan's
Kidney Pills.
Week after week, month after
month you've read their statements.
Would these Manning people recon-
mend any medicine if it were not
good?
Would they confirm and repeat their
statements aftcr years had passed?
Local proof IS good evidence
Testimony confirmed years after is
better evidence.
The following Manning woman's
statement leaves no room for doubt.
1t must convince every kidney suf-
fercr who reads it.
If your back achcs-if your kidneys
are weak, profit by what Mrs. r. l..
Logan says: "For a long time, |
ha! been troubled with my kidneys.

back and didn't rest well nights. |
used a box Of Doan's Kidney Pills
and they relieved me wonderfully. I
am feeling much better now."
Keeps DOan's On Hand.
Over three years later, Mrs. Logan
said: 81 have used Doan's Kidney
Pills and they have done me a world
of good. l keep them on hand and
couldn't get along without them"

cause the would be farmers could
not get supplies. There are thous-

these farmers not given a helping

ers did not pay up last year. How

the fault of the farmer; for he had
good crop practically made when
it was destroyed by storm. The farm
ers who can getlsupplies are plant
ing all they can this. year, and will
probably make enough without fer
tilizer to feed themselves, their
worthy brothers, and widows and or
phans; but not enough to feed those
who stand idly by and hand out cheap
advice when ton of fertilizer would
assist greatly in producing his food
supply for next winter.
I do not say that all merchants are
withholding aid, but it is certain that
the majority of them are catering to
the cash trade only. The farmers
should patronize the merchant who
helps them. I am not trying to array
one class against another, only try
ing to show that by helping others
we help ourselves.
If this article will arouse the pa
triotism of some fertilizer dealer or
some merchant to stand back of the
farmer this summer while he is maxi
