De,th Of Mrs. Belle Minis.


Eighty-three years ago, there came
into the happy home of DR.. and Mrs
John Lake daughter who, through
nearly century of life from infancy
TO old age has been resident OF
Edgefeld county and town. On Tues
day night last at about midnight
this beloved friend of Edgefeld and
lover of her family, Mrs. Isabel Lake
Minis, passed away into a better
world than this.
The old home, Rose Cottage where
/ DIR. and Mrs. Lake reared a large
/ family and which was a centre of cul-
ture and refinement in those early
days, still stands just about three
miles beyond Pleasant Lane.
From that home in 1855, Miss Is
bel Lake went as the bride of Robert
.Hayne Minis, sor of Matthew Minis
of Edgefeld, and to the same spot
where his father had lived and died
he brought his bride. Here they lived
together for ffty-seven years, cele-
,brating seven years before his death
their golden anniversary.
There were ten children who came,
into the home, seven of whom fitted
away into the unknown beyond, the
last grown son Robert H, who was
the light and joy of his parents. At
last when the mother departed this
life, but three remained on this side
to bid her farewell, but company of
the .essed on the other side of the
shores of the rives to welcome her
TO the eternal home.
Mrs. Minis was distinguished for
several very remarkable accomplish
sments and characteristics. She was
Tor more than forty years, through
all the vicissitudes other life, the or
ganist at the Baptist church, from
the time of her marriage until after
the pipe organ was installed. when
she gradually began to lose her sight.
She was splendid conversation
a.sS, retaining her magnetic person.
ahty to the last days of her long life.
Her intelligence and education
were far above the average and she
had many friends who through the
latter years when she was blind were
a great comfort to her. She was as
greatly beloved by her husbands rel
atives as by her own.
On Wednesday afternoon at 4
o'clock the casket was brought into
the Baptist church which she had so
long and faithfully served. Flowers
covered her last resting place, the
remembrance of many friends, rela-
tive sand organizations, among them
the Mission s>ciety, the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union and the
Daughters of the Revolution.
Or. R. G. Lee, pastor, conducted a
beautiful service as her friend and
loved ones sat for the last time in
her presence. Those who came from
Johnston were Messrs. Lucas and
Minis Walker, Mrs. Mary Eliza Wal
ker, Mrs. Mary Ann Huiet, Mrs. Ann
Mobley, Mrs. Lucas Walker and Miss
Eliza Minis.
The body was laid to rest beside
that of her comrade whom she loved
longest on the journey of life.
Those who are left of the family
are her daughters, Mrs. E. j. Norris,
and Miss Eliza Minis and son George
F. Minis, five granddaughters, Misses
Miriam and Genevieve Norris, Misses
Lois, Felicia and Emily Perrin Minis,
and one grandson, Harold Norris.

Conn. War Acres
 Great Producers

storrs, March IS - Connecticut's war acres" in 1918 added PIP, S62 bushels of grain to the nations food supply, according to figures compiled from annual reports of county agents in the eight counties of the state. This figure represents only the pro- duet of additional acres that would not have been planted except for the vigorous crop production campaign carried on by the agents as a war emergency.
 Analysis of the figures show that this great quantity of grain was dis tributed as follows: Wheat, 37,2S7 bushels; oats. 83,78O bushels; corn, 109.44O bushels: rye, 24,S30 bushels; buckwheat. 12.915 bushels, and bar ley, 4,110 bushels.
 It must be borne in mind that this increase was made in spite of a severe labor shortage. Supplying farm labor was one of the county agents ardu- ous duties in 1918 and the eight county agents sent a total of 3,183 workmen to the farms of the state.
 In addition to these labors the eight county agents found time to make 3,512 visits to farmers on their farms, received 6.457 calls at the Farm Bureau offices, took part in
 579 public meetings at which they ad- dressed a total of 34133 persons, helped organize 5.026 boys and girls into clubs to study agriculture and homo economics, published 894 agri- cultural articles in their local papers, wrote 12,494 letters, and mailed out IA. 449 circulars.
 It would seem from the above fig ures, compiled from the annual re- ports of these officers, that the county agents were kept fairly busy in 1918. However these figures by no means tell the full story. Further study of 1 the reports reveals the fact that the 1 agents helped obtain for their farm | CTS 45 registered bulls, 32 registered | cows, 20 registered rams, 1 4 register 1 ed boars, and two registered staIlions. | Altogether, 1,468 head of live stock | were bought or sold on the agents l suggestions. Seventy-two cows were | discarded after failing to make good
 on milk tests recommended by the l gents.
