Attend Farmers Meeting.

This is time when the greatest
cooperation is necessary. We might
say as old Benjamin Franklin said in
the olden days: "We must all hang
together or be assured that we shall
be hanged separately" We should
say: eve must reduce our acreage
together or, our acreage will reduce
us separately"
Mr.. Farmer, if you care anything
at all about standing for yourself
and working with your fellow-far-
mers come out to the farmers meet
ing to be held in the Court House,
Saturday, February 18th, at noon.
We are fortunate in having B. R.
Tillman, one of the best farmers in
the county, as head of the County
Cotton Association. If we shall give
Mr.. Tillman the proper support, great
things will be accomplished.

Solicitor Callison Coming.

In letter to Clerk of Court W..
B. Cogburn, Solicitor T. G. Callison
states that he will be in Edgefield
Saturday, February 19, for the pur-
pose of getting everything in readi-
ness for the March term of court.
Any and all witnesses who may desire
to confer with the solicitor before
the convening of court should come
to Edgefeld Saturday. All magis-
trates should also send all of their
official records to the clerk Of court
by that date so the solicitor can in
spect them and have everything in
readiness for the March term of
court. Solicitor Callison stated in the
campaign that if elected he would
visit each county seat before the con-
vening of court and familiarize him
helf with the business of the court
so as to conduct it wisely and with
dispatch. We trust that Mr.. Callison
will meet with the fullest co-opera-
ton in his efforts to conduct the
peoples business. 1t would be well
also for grand jurors to have a con-
ference with the solicitor daring this
official visit to Edgefeld.

Boil Weevils Living.

Mr.. w. P. Gordon brought bot
tie containing about a dozen living
boil weevils to The Advertiser Office
yesterday. They came from the farm
of Mr.. W. F. West, and doubtless on
every farm in the county can be
found living boil weevils, which
means they will attack cotton .early
this year.
Cut your acreage in half. Don't plant

Post Office Burglarized.

Although Edgefeld is something
like 100 years old, Monday night was
the first time that expert yeggmen
have made an "official" visit to this
place. About two o'clock Monday
night the postoffice was forcibly en-
tered and the safe dynamited. First
the burglars broke into the shop of
Mr.. A. L. Kemp on Jeter Street and
secured hammer and other tools
which were used in forcing open the
door of the post Office and wrecking
the safe. The safe contained less than
S1OO in cash and about S1,5O0 in
stamps and other supplies, all of
which was carried away by the bur-
glars. 1t appears that there were
three parties to the crime, two stand
ing guard on the Opera House cor
ner and the Kemp Grocery store cor
ner on Main street while the third
did the devilment inside. There were
two policemen on duty Monday night,
Mr.. Douglas Leonard and Mr.. Eddie
Whatley. The regular policeman, MIR.
Jack Whatley, was at home with his
sick wife and child. At the time the
first explosion occurred the police
men were warming by the fire in the
club rooms of the American Legion
club. They at once rushed down stairs
to make investigation, and as soon
as they reached the street they were
fired upon by the two sentinels on
the opposite side of the street. About
eight shots were exchanged between
the officers and the burglars but none
took effect. AS soon as the work OF
the man inside the postoffice building
was completed all of them made their
escape down the street by the Pres
byterian church, proving themselves
to be expert runners. They left no
clue nor trace that would point to
their identity. The postmaster, Mr..
C. NJ. Mellichamp, at once notified
the postal Inspector of this district.
Later: Responding at once to the
notice of Mr.. Mellichamp, the in
spector visited the post Office yester-
day and after careful examination
has placed the governments loss at
S2,184.37 as a result of the work OF
the burglars. No clue has yet been
fonnd that would lead to their iden-
