Death of Young Man From
North Carolina.

Saturday afternoon Mr.. George
Prather died after being i'll only two
or three days. He was taken suddenly
sick at one of the saw mills of the
Morgan Lumber Company above
Pleasant Lane and was brought to
Edgefeld where he received the clos
est attention. He came to Edgefeld
about three weeks ago from Gasto-
MIA. n. c., at the solicitation of Mr..
L. j. Mauney, the manager of the
Morgan Lumber Company, and made
many warm friends during that time.
Before he entered the navy two
years ago he was employed by Mr..
Mauney in Georgia and always gave
entire satisfaction. Mr.. Mauney and
his associates who have known him
best speak in the highest terms of
Mr.. Prather and his rather sudden
death caused much sorrow among
those who knew hin. DR.. R. G. Lee,
pastor of the Baptist church, was
with during the last hours of his i'll
ness and he expressed himself as be-
ing prepared to face death, which he
did bravely.
The body of Mr.. Prather was car
ried to Gastonia Sunday morning for
interment, being accompanied by
Mr.. Mauney and several other gen.
tlemen. Mr.. Prather has a sister re
siding in Gastonia.

Death OF Nsr. James IA. Young
blood.

One By one the land marks, the
golden links that connect the long
ago with the present, are passing
saway. The death Of James Mayson
Youngblood at his home in Augusta
Monday, April II removes from the
active scenes of life one who, though
claimed by Augusta, rightly belongs
70 Edgefeld. 1t was here he spent
his early life and it was his ancestry
who had pa.: in making the history
of this county. Mr.. Youngblood not
only bore an horored name but he
bore it honcrably. He was a cultured
gentleman Of the cid school, possess
ing heart culture and well as intel
lectua! and social culture. God spar
ed him to his loved ones and to his
generation nearly four score years,
lacking only four months of reach
ing the S0th mile-post.
Mr.. Youngblood made gallant
record as a Confedeate soldier, be-
ing a participant in the earliest bat
ties and fought through the entire
struggle, having lost an arm in bat
tie. Since the war he has been loyal
to the principles of the Confederacy
and has always been actively identi-
fed with the veterans organizations.
About % years ago Mr.. Young
blood located in Augusta and for the
past 20 years was charged with the
keeping of the Center Street bridge
across the Savannah, where he SER
ved with increasing faithfulness.
Mr.. Youngblood was devout
member of the First Baptist church
of Augusta and although modest and
unobtrusive, characteristic of those
who bore the name, his influence was
FELT for good far and wide. He pos
sessed a marked degree of talent as
vocalist and he was frequently in
vited to sing in the churches and in
the evangelistic services. 1t was his
custom for number of yeaH to visit
the prison, singing and otherwise
ministering to the inmates.
Mr.. Youngblood is survived by
his wife, Mrs. Elizabeth Anne Young
blood, five children, Mrs. B. L. Eas-
terling, Barnwell; Mrs. J. NJ. Kill
ingsworth, Dunbarton; Miss Mamie
Youngblood, Augusta; Mrs. C. H.
Bruce, Macon, and ]. R. 'Youngblood,
Augusta, and two sisters, Mrs. Nan
ME Griffin and Miss Tillie Young
blood, of Edgefield and one brother,
Mr.. Frank Youngblood of Ellenton.
The funeral services were con-
Quoted Tuesday afternoon from the
Baptist church in Augusta, Rev. NJ.
E. Grace ofiiciated, being assisted by
DR.. Joseph p. Sewer OF the Presby-
5erian church. DR.. Sewer was de-
voted friend of Mr.. Youngblood and
whenever he held revival services in
mis- church, the Presbyterian church,
he always invited him to participate
in the singing, which serves to show |
that this venerable and sanity man
was beloved by all classes and all
creeds.

sor H. P. Davis, head of the dairy

OF IDAHO MEN WERE
SECOND In CONTEST AT SAN

University of dIaho has again won
high honors in military training. Col.

of the r. o. T. G. camp at San Diego
and Idaho was second in the number
of points secured in the training
camp Out of a possible 1895 points
this school made 1858, being excelled
by only one other school. The fol-
1 lowing official report, just received
from San Diego, tells of the work done
/ there:
| During the R. 0. T. c. encampment
! at San Diego, which formally clos
ed on July 20, the group and block
/ system of competitive training was
employed throughout An intensive
course of instruction was pursued.
Over 100 instructors from the regular
| army were charged with the work.
The students were under constant mil
itary discipline and the competition
among the students of the various col
leges was keen and sustained.
| In the Senior Advanced Course the
maximum number of points attainable
was 1902. The representatives of the
University of Idaho exceeded by 1858
points this number being exceeded by
but one institution, the University of
California, with 1862. All the prom
| inent institutions of the west and
northwest were Represented. The
names of the Idaho boys are as fol-
lows: Carl A. Burke, J. Fred Cline,

In the Senior Basic Course the Ida

pounds of milk and more than 1000
pounds of butter, stands 32nd in the
list for June, with production of
1221.7 pounds of milk and Alb
pounds of butter fat. That her milk is
not nearly as rich as many others is
shown by the fact that only seven
cows in the SO, gave more pounds of
milk, but 81 gave more pounds of
butterfat. Blossom" the Jersey
COW owned by Mr.. BARLEY, of Mos
COW, gave 60.77 pounds of butter fat,
from 1852 pounds of milk, while
Violet only gave Alb pounds of but

A vast difference in the richness of
