The care of cotton is subject
which ought to interest the farmers
of Bamberg county especially at the
present time, when there is so much
cotton being held throughout the
county. An interesting experiment
was recently conducted by the Geor-
gia agricultural department, and the
results are striking A circular let
ter sent out by one of the cotton
factors of Augusta gives the follow
ing information, in regard to the
experiment, which is worth passing
on:
A bale placed fat on the ground
fully exposed to the weather, in the
course of eight months was damaged
to the extent of $40 pounds. An
other bale placed on it's edge with
no further attention lost 167 pounds.
A bale placed on its edge and
turned over once a week lost ITO
pounds.
A bale placed on its end and not
turned lost IS pounds while bale
placed in a warehouse for the same
period lost only one pound.
In addition to the damage to the
cotton from the weather, it is either
not insured at all, or, if insured, it
carries an almost prohibitive rate.
The moral Of this information
seems to be that cotton should be
properly warehoused. We do not
suggest to you that your cotton
should be stored in a bonded ware
house, or any other kind of ware
house. That is for you to decide.
What we do suggest is that there is
an apparent waste, Judging from the
statement above, that can be elimi-
mated, and any waste that can be
eliminated ought to be, whether cot
ton is worth ten cents or forty.

The Home Demonstration Agent.

The home demonstration work is
rapidly becoming an integral part Of
every rural organization and is gener.
ally the only organ through which
instruction is given along the various
lines which lessons cares and light
ems the burdens and makes for more
efficient work, in the homes and COM
munities. The county home dem
onstration agent is the only paid
worker in the field who spends her
entire time in the interest of the ru-
raj women of our country.
There is slight misunderstanding
in the minds of some of the people in
the counties as to the duties and
qualifications of a home demonstra-
ton agent. 1t is not the intention Of
anyone concerned to claim that she is
the best cook, the best gardener, the
best poultryman, etc., in her county.
She lays no claim to these distinc-
tions. However, she is scientifically
trained woman, who applies her
knowledge of science to the problems
of every day life, which confront
every ambitious woman; for instance,
if the bread does not rise, with her
knowledge of the subject, she can
easily find the trouble.
The home demonstration agent is
not a specialist, but is woman OF
general training in home economics.
However, she has at her command a
corps of trained specialists in every
line from whom she may obtain any
information she does have on hand,
whenever needed.

Do you plan your house-work syste-

INDIAN MINSTRELS FEAST.

AS an appreciation of their faith
fulness and cooperation, and for the
efficient service rendered In giving the
minstrel performance, by those Red
men Monday and Tuesday nights, a
very delightful social evening was
given them by Harry c. Curran which
took the form of eating, toasting and
enjoyable companionship Wednesday
night at 1880. The assembage met in

were ready to adjourn to the dining
room of the Model Restaurant where
large table ladened with good things
greeted the eye and whetted the ap-
petite, prepared by those expert ca
terers Frost & Haucke. Two hours
were passed amid the happiness of
fraternity and friendship those
bonds Of love which refresh the spirit
and make glad the heart, filling life
with sunshine and softening the road
over which we must travel from the
cradle to the grave, for youth exclaims
Man! How like God; where old age

ARGUMENTS HEARD
IN SUIT AGAINST
LEWIS COUNTY
Case OF Ed Rand vs.. Lewis County and
Fleming Jones for Damages Is
Taken Under Amusement BY
Judge Newell.

Practically all OF today In the Ma
son Circuit Court was taken up in
arguments upon demurrer to jurls-
'diction in the case of Ed Rand vs..
Fleming Jones and Lewis county in
which the plaintiff seeks damages in
the sum of $4,000 from the defend
ants.
This case involves considerable road
work in Lewis county contract for
which was awarded by the county to
Fleming Jones. Afterward the bridge
building work was turned over to the
plaintiff Rand and after having COM
pleted two of the bridges on the pro-
posed work, Rand was paid and agree
ment was entered into between Lewis
county and Jones ending the contract.
Rand maintains that through this con-
tract which he alleged Is fraud,
Jones and Lewis county enter into a
collusion to defraud him OF the build
ing of the third bridge in the contract.
He is asking $4,000 and County At
torney Strother, of Vanceburg, has de-
murred to the jurisdiction Of the Ma
son Circuit Court and at the same
time has filed an answer. The case is
so complicated and involves so many
contracts and counter contracts that
Judge Newell has taken the motions
under advisement. The plaintiff is
represented by Hon A. d. Cole, of
this city, and r. d. Wilson, Of Vance
burg.
