SHOOTS MOTHER-IN.LAW.
Greenville Man Puts Up Fight and
Posse Shoots Him.

Greenville, June 1S.-Hugh Bran
lett, white man about 35 years of
age, created sensation in the west
ern section of the city early tonight
when he drove, up in an automobile
to the home of his mother-in-law,
wife and sister-in-law twice at 713
Pendleton street, ran up into the
house and shot his mother-in-law
twice with pistol, then returned to
his car and drove off at furious rate
down the Augusta road.
A posse of officers and citizens at
once started out to find Bramlett and
finally captured him several miles
from the city. Bramlett put up stiff
fight and it was necessary to shoot
him. He was brought to the Jail and
given medical attention. 1t is not be-
lieved that he is seriously injured.
Bramlett does not live with his
wife and bad feeling has existed be-
tween him and his mother-in-law and
sister-in-law for some time. Only
few weeks ago he was arrested by the
city police upon complaint of the
three women, who declared that
Bramlett had entered the house arm
ed with a shotgun and revolver and
had threatened to kill them all, but
that they had disarmed him. When
the police got to the house on that
occasion they found the man being
held at bay in one of the rooms by
the women.

The field marshal devotes a special
section to 'Why We Attacked When

s'The object of all war is victory,
and purely defensive attitude can
never bring about successful de-

He emphasizes that the defensive
role sooner or later produces a low

To Dance or Not?

The official programme of the Wei
come Day to the returned soldiers
cannot yet be printed-a difference
of opinion has manifested itself
upon the propriety of having dance
for the soldiers and sailors. The
executive committee, headed by
Chairman John T. Wise, had voted
four to one for the dance as the
evenings feature of the days cele-
bration. Monday afternoon about
ten members of the general commit
tee met, and several of these object
ed to that item.
" Rev. Geo. E. Davis, pastor of
the First Baptist church, asked that
his name be taken off if the dance
was on the programme. Mr.. W. L..
Moseley, merchant, and a Presby-
terian by faith, also spoke unfavor-
ably of the dance as proposed. The
matter ended without further ac-
tion, but Tuesday morning Chairman
Wise called on nearly all the mem
bers of the general committee and
asked whether they objected to the
dance. Mr.. Wise reported to the
meeting Tuesday afternoon that the
great majority had no objection, but
thought it proper in view of the same
action by many other cities.
On Wednesdy the programme was
to have been given out, but the ques-
tion of the dance has resolved itself
to whether or not it will be officially
on the programme. Chairman Wise
and others think if the dance is to be
held it should be on the programme,
while some who object to dancing do
not wish to appear to give it sanction.
But, it is certain, practically, that
there'll be dance-the question is
whether it will be on the programme
or not.-Orangeburg Times and
Democrat.

have been dealing with the effect
Of the fertilizer industry and the use
Of fertilizers on agriculture, because,
as have said, the effects on business
generally must result from the effect
on agriculture, and il is obvious that
they must be innumerable. The fer
tilizer business in the South is one
Of tie most Important, and concerns
our prosperity more directly than any
other industry, and in It's effects no
lother industry So Families into other

Industries and business generally
Helps Railroads and Manufacturers
Perhaps among the industries which
are more particularly and directly ben
Iehted by the use Of commercial fertil-
izers are the railroads and common
carriers, which frs5 bring fertilizers
to the farmers, and in return trans
port the increased products Of the
| farm to the ends of the earth; and
finally when these products are sold,
for a third time, the railroads are call
ed upon to bring to the farmer his
supplies of foreign and domestic prod
ucts
The use of fertilizer has made more
spindles in the South, more oil mills,
more live stock, more people and more
commerce. The tobacco crop and our
trucking industry, requiring intensive
fertilization and plant food, would be
practically unknown to us Ships bring
raw material from foreign shores In
greater quantities and in return carry
away more cotton and grain.
Cheapens Cost Of Producing Crops
The commercial business is affected
in even greater proportion than the
farmer himself, and there is no farm
eli in the South who is not benefited
Iby the iudicious use Of commercial
Fertilizer. Large crops give TO the
people a greater supply at lower cost
Of production and at lower price
to the consumer, while on the other
hand small crops not only increase the
cost of production, but may increase in
even greater proportion the price to
the consumer. When hayests are
abundant the consumer and producer
alike share in the increased prosper
lily.
Other means Of eheapening the cost
of production can be used probably
only on very large or on very
small scale, but fertilizers can be ap-
lpled with practically the same sue
cess to the smallest as well as the
largest undertaking from the individ-
ual plant in the flower pot to the thou
sand acre cotton field.
/ It was my pleasure some years ago
TO know many more manufacturers
and dealers in fertilizers than | know
at present, but | wish to testify to
the high character and intelligence OF
those with whom became associated.
The proper use of commercial fertil-
iEer by the farmer is obviously of vital

as well as to the farmer, and it is
