They told the Corp. that if he would

A WRONG

The Abbeville Medium has discov-
cred evidence, it says, that it has a
circulation. It has made this discov-
cry in this wise, it says: 1t finds that
for a period of thirty days it has car
ried a certain number Of lines Of
want advertisements" more than the
number carried by the Press and
Banner. when a man wants to brag
on himself he always compares HIM
self with a big institution.) The Me-
dunn says that when a reader Of. a
certain paper wants anything he
makes his wants known in the paper
which he reads, and it draws the con-
clusion that therefore there are<more
people who read the Medium than
there are those who read the Press
and Baqner; or rather it seeks to
have its readers draw that inference.
The conclusions\ Of the. Medium
are entirely illogical, it seems to US.
The subscription lists of the two pa
pers, we should think, show which Of
the papers published at Abbeville has
the larger number of subscribers.
When the Medium man has his count
ing clothes on again we shall be glad
TO compare these lists with him and
publish the results. The want columns
of the paper show, not the number Of
subscribers Of the paper, but the
number of those subscribers who are
in. want of something. We are willing
to admit that there are more readers
of the Medium in want Of something
than there r like readers of this
paper. If all the subscribers of the
Medium who are In want should ,ad-
vertise their wants in the Mediums
want columns there would be no
room in the next issue to tell about
the Junior and Senior Deacons-be-
cause all the readers Of the Medium
are in want-of a good newspaper
like The Press and Banner. .

THE A OF VAUGHN

The following editorial is take
from The State of Monday. So ia
as we have heard opinions expressed
i is in line with the general opinip'
as expressed by others. It says:
"Not, often is a white man of
education executed-for a capital
crime in South Carolina, and,
though the offense, of. T. U.
Vaughn was one of extreme
Nervousness, he escaped the cleo
trio chair, .
Nevertheless his death was a
v%indication of the law. In his
case the prosecution, though long
drawn out and tedious, was I'M
r%elenting and his escape from the
legal penalty was no more than
technical. He died for his crime,
and, though he was not legally
executed, his death was volun-
tary only in a strained and
narrow sense of the word. Sci
dom has any man chung to life
more persistently or given great
er evidence of the love of it. To
every possible device to avoid
the consequences of his deed he
had recourse and he illustrated
a perseverance that did not fall
short of being remarkable. But,
after 10 years, not literally but
not less truly, he came to the
end of his rope and for no other
reason than that the state of
South Carolina, through it's
peace. officers, was not less per-
severing than he was.
"His fate is as we'll calculated

though he had died in the South
Carolina penitentiary, and not in

SOUND THE CHARGE!
Manufacturers Record.)

"Beat a retreat" said Napoleon to
a drummerr boy, when in n of his
battles he felt that he was losing and
that his army must retreat in order
to be saved. .. -.
"Sire," said the drummer boy, Il
have never learned to beat a retreat,
but I can beat a march that will make
the dead arise and fight" He received
permission from the General to beat
a march, into which he threw his very
soul. The tired, weary, almost de-
feated soldiers caught the inspiration
Of the charge, and with new energy
and quickened fire of body and spirit
rushed once more to the battle and
won a great victory. !. 80.
The people of this country feel that
they have been almost defeated; dis
enlargement fills their minds and
hearts. The power Of the enemy has
almost reached the limit Of their en-
duranceA They have been beating a
retreat, but the time has come TO beat
a march and catch that new inspira-
ton which Napoleon's soldiers felt at
the stirring music brought forth by
the indomitable drummer boy who
knew not how to beat a retreat.
Every mar who is pessimistic, or
who permits the discouragements of
the hour to dominate him, is beating
a retreat. He is not only beating a
retreat for his own business, but he
is beating a retreat for all with whom
he comes in touch. The time has CONS
70 beat a march, to sound the charge,
to quicken .he life blood of the ma
ton once more, and out Of the appar-
emit defeat of the last twelve months
rally for a new charge, a new crea.j
tive period of work and energy. Fer
getting the things that are bshind,
we must press forward With greater
energy to overcome the difficulties
which as a nation we have had to face.
-. Every man who draws within his
business shell, every man who can
GELS his contracts or pessimistcally
refuses to do business because of
fear of the future, is beating a re-
treat. .
Every mar who goes ahead, who
has the optimism Of the drummer boy
and a spirit which dares to do things,
is beating a march on to victory.
|. If throughout the entire nation
there a be rekindled the drummer
boys fire, we shall soon have opti-
mism and sunshine and prosperity,
where today there is pessimism and
doubt and despair.
1t was the drummer boy whose
work inspired the great Napoleon
and his troops. 1t must be the drum
mer boy of the business world, the
farmer and the small merchant, and
the individual business man, who
beats the march and sounds the
charge rather than the great business
leaders who have halted so long.
The ones who have suffered must
be the ones to dare and do the most.

TO PREVENT POTATO LOSSES
Serious Damage Results From Careless
Handling at Harvest Time
Avoid Breaking Skin.

Growers and shippers are response
BILE for much of the loss that results
from shipping diseased potatoes, since
large part of such losses can be con-
trolled, if not entirely prevented, In
the field, according to specialists of
the bureau of markets of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Serious damage results from careless
handling when the potatoes are har-
vested. Too many persons, it is said,
handle potatoes as though they were
so many cobblestones, rather than a
perishable product. Even the breaking
of the protective skin frequently
proves serious. Such injury not only
damages the appearance and neces-
states deep pairing of the tuber, but
affords ready entrance to infection.
Loss of this sort lies in every growers
and shippers power to control, 1t is
pointed out.

MOST DESIRABLE
POULTRY FLAVOR
Much Depends on Distribution OF
Both Flesh and Masses of
Fat Over Carcass.
FLESH OF FEMALE IS MILDER

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Desirable quality in the flesh OF
poultry intended for table use depends
on the flavor of the flesh; on the tex
ture; on the amount Of flesh in pro-
portion to the weight of the bird; and
on the distribution of both the flesh
and the larger masses of fat over the
carcass. Other things being equal, the
flesh of the females usually is milder
than that of the males, say home
economic specialists Of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Caponizing makes the flavor of cocks
more delicate, tends to produce finer
and less tough muscle fibers, and In
creases the size of the masses of meat,
especially in the breast.
Effects of Age on Flavor.
Age tends to increase flavor, at first
advantageously, but later usually, dis
advantageously. Most very young
birds have a flavor too mild to be sat
isfactory for stewing or fricassee, but
make splendid eating as broilers or
fryers. The delicacy of flavor usual
ly is lost in decidedly old birds. AS
the bird grows older, the proportion
of flesh to bone usually increases, at
least up TO the period of full matur-
ity. Often the large masses of flesh
found on such birds can be utilized
more satisfactorily than the smaller
ones found on young and scrawny
chickens
Exercise affects the flavor and tex
ture of poultry flesh, as in any kind
of meat. 1t toughens the fibers and
the connective tissues, and lessons the
amount of fat. 1t may also affect the
distribution of flesh on the carcass in
creasing the naturally strong, tough
muscles rather than the less-used, ten
der ones. In some birds, notably
chickens, the exercise can be con-
trolled. Almost any poultry, however,
can safely be penned for few days
before killing.
The difference between the flesh of
a plump chicken and of lean one
of similar kind and age is due princi-
pally to the fat present. The skill of

SECURE BEST HARVEST HELP
Rovers are Usually Efficient but They
Are Liable to Leave Before Crops
Are All In.

Getting help for the harvest rush is
a problem which is best faced weeks
in advance. Grain, and orchard har-
vest seasons bring to many sections
large numbers of travelling help who
start with crop in the South and
work north with the season to the
Canadian border. These workers are
usually efficient through long ex-
perience, but they are likely to feel
the urge of the road and leave before
the farmer gets his crop all harvested,
obliging him to pay much higher rate
to secure the remainder of the crop
before it spoils. Wherever efficient
local help can be obtained, it is to
be preferred to the rovers.
