About Making Compost.

Numerous inquiries have been re-
ceived in regard to the manner Of
composing cotton seed, and Prof.
Blackwell, agronomist, recommends
the following procedures:
zone Of the best ways is to start
bed about eight to ten feet wide
by throwing up q layer of dirt. Dig
trench around it to prevent water
from running in it. Make the bed as
long as necessary.
Start off by putting down a layer
Of cotton seed, then layer Of leaves,
then layer Of acid phosphate and
layer Of manure. Be sure to get
enough manure to cause the organic
matter-that is, the cotton seed, the
leaves and litter-to heat and fer
ment, as this is important.
The amount OF acid phosphate used
with the manure varies, but usually
200 to 800 pounds of acid is used
with each ton Of manure. These lay
ers can be continued as high as 1t Is
convenient to make them.
1t Is important to cover the COM
post pile with layer of soil three
| or four inches deep, as this Is for the
purpose Of absorbing the gases lib
Grated. 1t Is usually best to throw
up a shed or cover over this to pre-
vent heavy rain from washing.

-Four Escape from Jail.

Florence, S. c., Jan. 9.-After saw
ing his way through two sets of bars,
Fred Lawson, recently arrested in
Charleston and brought here for
trial, made his escape from the coun-
t5 tail here tonight about 9 o'clock.
Three negro prisoners, one char ged
with murder and the others with
burglary, made their getaway at the
same time.
Lawson was arrested in Charles
ton recently on charge Of breaking
into several stores at Poston, this
county. He was in the act of mar
keting stolen property at the time of
hsi arrest.
The manner employed by the fugi-
tive In securing the saw which gain.
ed him liberty is mystery to the
authorities. He sawed his way
through the bars Of the cell and
gained entrance to the hallway from
which he made his way to the open
by cutting away the window bars.
The local authorities are securing
the city tonight in an effort to find
the escaped men.

THE WALTERBoRo POST OFFICE
Robbed by Ycggs-Safe Blown Open
and Valuables Gathered In.

Walterboro, S. c., Jan. 9.-Yegg-
men blew open the safe Of the Wal
terboro post Office at an early hour
this morning and secured considera-
BILE booty in the shape of money,
stamps and registered mail. 1t is not
known just the amount secured by
the yeggs, but it will reach into the
hundreds Of dollars. Fortunately they
did not enter the strong box Of the
safe, where most OF the valuables of
the office are kept. Entrance was ef-
fected through the front door Of the
building, but the back door was
found wide open when the robbery
was discovered.
The yeggmen were evidently pro-
fessionals. Phe safe door was COM
pletely wrecked A cake of soap and
some wrenches and files we're left
scattered about. Some residents of
the neighborhood heard the explo-
sion about o'clock, but thought
nothing Of 1t, as there has been so
much shooting and fireworks during
and since the holidays. 1t seems that
there were two explosions. and that
they were about ten or fifteen min
utes apart.
Postmaster C. D. G. Adams has no
titled the authorities and is awaiting
the arrival Of an inspector. The yegg-
m left absolutely no traces behind
them. Among the registered pack
ages taken were two for the First

Of documents four inches thick These
he took with him to the Department
of Labor, but the immigration off,

First he had the general approval of
Gen. Wrangel to bring all Of them.
Then he had the approval Of local
councils, and finally, where parents
are living, he received their formal
written consent.
If the laws governing adoption
Will permit me to do 80, I shall le-

McCully. "In any event, / shall pro-

them. l want them to learn English
and American ways, but to preserve
all that is good Of their Russian ways,
and ! may say that there arc many
beautiful things in the Russian ways.
1T is my purpose to provide for the
children until they are able to take
care OF themselves, just as If they
were my own. Already have prom
ised to take them back to Russia
some time, when can get sufficient
leave, and after they have learned
English. Should any Of them desire
to remain there after the visit they
will be permitted to do So"
