Charlie C. Williams

After living more than three score
years in Somervillc Charlie C. Williams,
one of the towns most beloved men
last Thursday passed to his reward
after an illness of several months.
Deceased was horn in Somervlle sixty
three years ago and has lived here all
his life. He has been fof most his busi-
ness life connected with the mercan lie
business here. DdrIng the earlier years
he clerked in tne stores of leading mer-
chants, nearly thirty years ago embark
ing 10 business for himself, co1tinueing
until since Christmas he closed his doors
to his busine ;. 1splsed of the remnant
of his stock and went to his home on
North Main street. never again return
ing to the business part of the town.
In his business life, as elsewhere, he
was scrupulously straightforward and
honest, absolutely trustworthy in every
transaction and had a scorn and con.
tempt for unfair tactics he some times
had 20 combat With the commercial
world he stood at the top and with the
retail trade he held confidence inspired
by years of honest and fair methods.
He took An active interest in all
movements for the good of this city
and community, was one of the most
active workers in behalf of the Fayette
county Fair, o0e the leaders in the
building OF the new Methodist church,
contributing largely ofboth means and
time, and did more than any other in
dvidusl in the pu cbase and installation
of the new pipe organ IN the church
While never having lived on a farm
in his life, he read much farm literature
and was We'll posted on farm metho6s
and gave out his information to many
who did not read and study and the
influence led many a man into better
methods and more profitable living.
And by MS success in his own
b isiness he inspired confidence in these
b met aud had dealings with. There
was nothing ot the false about him.
On the contrary, he was every inch
true and trustworthy and all recognized
his as such. The community has had
few men who as uniformly held the
esteem of every body. He was gentle
and sympathetic in disposition, and for
bis friends he held warm esteem.
Until less than year ago he was
alw Ays ut ms place of business, his !
health giving Way the past year and he
gradually lost his strength, tho being
able to be Il the store to wind up its
affairs during early January. Since
then he weskened much faster until
the end came peacefully and without
pain on Thursday evening. His death
Is serious loss to the town and com.

Terracing Lands

Farm bulletin 997 of the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture says that SOIL
EROSION, or the washing away of
earth by water, costs the farmers OF
the U. s. $l,00O.0O0 every year. This
statement. / am quite sure applies tt
Fayette county as much as to any other
county in the south, for any direction
you may travel in the county you can
see any number of acres of land abso-
lutely destroyed by gulies caused by
erosion. If the rain water were ab.
sorbed by the soil as fast as it falls,
there would be very little erosion.
In order to drink up surface water
rapidly a soil must be very permeable,
which ssthat it must contain fairly
large open spaces through which the
rain water can pass easily, or which it
can be stored temporarily. Some soils
are naturally very permsatle. A num-
Ger of ways of increasing the permea-
olity of soil are deep blowing, plow-
ing under organic matter such as ma
nure, stubble, stalks and cover crops;
the practice of tile drainage. and In GER.
tain soils, the use of explosives.
Vegetation covering the surface of
the ground protects the soil from direct
action of the rain and checks the flow
of the water over the surface, giving
the soil better opportunity to absorb
the water. 1t is therefore important
that some kind of cover crop, such as
vetch, clover, oats, wheat or rye, be
grown on the land during the winter or
at any time that the land is not used
for other crops might say in con-
nectlon WITH the above that several far
mers in the county are begi2hing to
realize the Importance of cover crops,
not only from the standpoint of holding
and improving their lands; but also
from the STANDPOINT of winter pastures.
Prof. Loggins mas as good demonstra-
ton of winter crops as any man in
tayette ever looked at andfor the inter-
est of those who are doing farm work
it would be time well spent to 20 over
his II tie farm and see what he is doing.
To give you an idea of what you might
see we're you to visit his farm i might
say as you enter the fret gate you see
wheat and red clover. rye and crimson
clover, corn and soy beans, of last year,
a little further on you see winter oats,
wheat, alfalfa, and still further on you
find vetch and rye, all these crops are
looking well and have furnished abun-
dant "a azing all winter. Now what this
man is doing Can be done by the aver
age farmer 10 the county. But back to
the subject.
Terracing is the most effective meth
cd of preventing erosion. and is doub-
ly effective when all the above methods
are employed in connection with il. |
have just secured the use of a field level
for terracing land and will be glad to
give whatever assistance l can in ter
racing land for the farmers of the
cnunty. Now is the time TO do this
work as II will soon be time to begin
work in your crops.

the following recommendations to the
court:
/. That the county purchase two
more factors, one more road grader and
two more three way drsgs with which
to work our first class roads. That the
present large tractor owned by the
county be sold or traded for smaller
outfit, If this can be done without too
much sacrifice. This will.giveIthe county
three power outfits with which we be
lieve all our important roads can b,
graded and kept dragged.
2. That the county employ a compe-
tent man to take charge of the opera.
tion of these outfits and superintend
the building of the roads and employ
ment of the men under them. That we
further employ two operators for each
outfit, one to handle the tractor and one
the grader. That these men be hired
by the month and that they be under
the control of the first man mentioned
above.
3. That these outfits be kept con-
stantly employed in building and drag
ging roads throughout the year and for
repairing roads and building bridges in
emergencies. l. this connection we
would call the attention of the court to
the fact that these men would be in the
employ OF the county at oil times and
in weather when 1t was not possible to
use the power outfits they could be
shifted to any part Of the county where
emergency work was needed.
4. That the overseer system be res
tained for the less important roads with
this modification, that instead of ap-
point oyerseers IN eacn district the road
commissioner be empowered by the
court to employ men at not to exceed
~ w per day TO work the free labor.
5. As it will take more money than
now at the disposal of the court TO oper-
ate to this system that the court now
name committee to meet with the
chairman and report on the necessary
revision ot The tax rate.
6. That the court now select road
committee OF five to represent the
court in the operation of TINS system
ana tnat this committee be the final
authority.
z. According to the best information
three tractor outfits should be able TO
build and maintain about 6C0 miles OF
road per year counting 200 working days
to the year. As this will be in excess
OF 80 per cent OF the road mileage OF
the county, we recommend that no
district be permitted 10 work more than
30 per cent Of It's roads by this system,
unless by order of the. road committee.
8. That the chairman be instructed
to keep an accurate account of the cost
of this system In seperAte book tor
the information of the members of the
court at ali times.
