An empty oil can, in addition to
the regular equipment, is a good
thing to carry in the car. 1t may
be filled with gasoline for printing

Bill Dale, closely Swallowed by one
lanky Samuel Heck with his Inevitable,
ever-ready rife, went among the work
ers with cheer that he did not feel.
For Caleb Moreland was In jail, and
Caleb Moreland was innocent. But
there was one sincere delight for
Dale: Hayes was driving the little
railroad ahead with all his might and
all the might Of his men. Hayes was
in high favor with those under him;
they worked even harder when he was
absent than they worked when he was
standing over them.
The days ran on, and there was no
sign of a hostile demonstration from
the Balls and Torreys. Judging from
appearances, they were wholly salts
fed with Caleb Moreland's being In
jail.
Henderson Con- had disappeared.
Dale hoped that he was rid of the man
for all time, but he wasn't. Golf was
not so confident as was Major Bradley
that he could establish his innocence
In the matter Of the dynamiting of the
two buildings and the trestle. He
wished very much to steer clear Of
arrest, for reasons Of his own, and he
was biding his time In a little town
In western North Carolina. When the
dynnmitlng affair had blown over. he
would 60 back and try again, perhaps
by an altogether new scheme, to get
himself into possession Of the More
land coal.
Then there came to the nelghbor-
hood man whom no Moreland, and
none of the Littlefords, had ever set
eyes upon before. He was a very I'M
couth mountain man, with long black
hair and shaggy beard: his clothing
was outlandish and ragged. He had
mot much to say; there was about
him, somehow, an air of mystery.
Two days after his arrival, in the
afternoon, the stranger met Dale mid

The stranger looked sharply In all
directions, as though he wished to

ned, he drew from trousers pocket
shining black lump Of coal, which
he held out for Dale's inspection.
"What do We think O. this here?" he
wanted to know.
Dale took the lump and examined
It closely. 1t was apparently as good
as the Moreland coal, which had sent
the expert Hayes into raptures. DALE

4 Sheriff Tom Flowers and four able
deputies rode out of Cartersville very
early on the following morning. They
went to the Big Pine mountain country,
and. by scheme that entailed some
shrewdness on the part Of the chief
officer, arrested two Balls and two
Torreys on suspicion and took them
away without trouble.
] The two Balls and the two Torreys
were lodged In the Cartersvllle jail
and offered their liberty and exonera-
tion from all blame In the dynamiting

of the other guilty parties and appear
against them. The mountaineers de
cIared stoutiy that they knew nothing
whatever Of the matter, and wher
pressure was applied they grew suller
and refused to talk at all.

Veterans to hold Reunion.

The United Confederate Veterans
association has been invited to hold
its annual reunion i, in Chattanooga
and the invitation has been accepted.
The invitation is also extended, to the
Sons of Confederate Veterans and al
lied organizations that hold their re-
unions simultaneously with the United
Confederate Vetrans. The date of the
reunion has been fixed for October 25
to 81, inclusive. This invitation was
extended the Veterans after it was
made public that there would be no
annual reunion because no southern
city had extended the old soldiers
organization an invitation to meet
within it's gates. This will be the
third time Chattanooga has entertain
ed the United Confederate Veterans.

DUTCH PROPHET
MAKES FORECAST
Early Cold Wave Predicted and
Severest Winter Since That of
1918.

September % is the central date
for a very decided change in the
weather from hot to cool-possibly to
cold, says the Dutch Weather Prophet.
In northern and northwestern lati-
tudes, he predicts, it will be cold with
frost previous to even the central date,
which will move the cold wave for the
West forward to Wednesday and prob
ably to the same date for the East and
Southeast, the time for the "germina-
ton" of the cool wave extending from
September 1S to rs. September Z
was another period for a cool wave
and it occurred in the West and passed
northward, having been DETECTED by
the San Antonio disturbance.
The coming winter will be the cold
est since 1918, he says. Three
SHOWS are indicated for the territory
south and east of the Blue Ridge.
Indications at the same time are to
the effect that snow will extend far
south, and the winter will be accom-
panied besides by numbers of snow
hurricS.
"These forecasts will be confirmed
more decidedly October /, together
with predictions as to possible amount
of precipitation during the winter and
prospects for grain crop (wheat and
oats) in this section" the prophet said.
Precipitation will occur September
in the South and Southwest and may
include Columbia and vicinity in its
progress northeastward, according to
his prediction.

WHITES TORTURE
BERKELEY NEGROES
SWUNG TO LIMB IN EFFORT
TO PROCURE CERTAIN
INFORMATION.

Claiming to have been hanged by a
rope to a tree limb until nearly dead
in an effort by white men to get GER
tain information, two negroes of the
St. Stephens section of Berkeley coun-
ty found their way to Orangeburg a
few days ago to prevail upon Solicitor
A. j. Hydrick to take action against
the guilty parties. The negroes,
cousins, one about 45 years and the
other about 25 years, said about ten
days ago they were caught up by a
party of white men, known to them,
and carried to q wooded place, blind.
folded and pulled up by rope around
their necks as if they were going to
be hanged, the white men demanding
that they tell who it was that shot
into the road camp shortly before this
occasion. The negroes claimed they
knew nothing of it and when nearly
dead, they were let down. Both ne
groes. had signs Of the rope about
their necks.
In telling what they could of the
incident, they said some trouble must
have come about among hands on the
road work that is being done by some
company in Berkeley county in build
ing a highway near st. Stephens and
that some one, according to the white
men, shot at random into the work
camp and the white men were en-
deavoring to find out who did the
shooting.

Interesting News Letter From the
Records Correspondent.

Salters Depot, Sept. 19.-It is need
less to say we are still having very
warm weather, any one knows that.
But we are hoping that we will have
cooler weather before m ~ more
days.
The little squirt in the price Of cot
ton the past two weeks were beginning
to make things look a little brighter,
but the market is again being dcpress-
ed and will of course make things
look little dark again.
Salters Gin Co., has been running
for the past week, and cotton is COM
ing in slowly. All of the cotton is
open and many of the farmers have
already picked their entire crop and
ginned it. They are getting about
one bale to fifteen acres; the like has
never been seen in this section before.
School days are here again and the
girls and boys have returned to their
respective colleges: Misses Ann and
Lorena LiFrage and Carrie Mosley to
Winthrop College; Miss May N.
Sparks to Coker College and Mr.. l. E.
Davis to Clemson.
We wish them all successful year.
Miss Minnie Davis has gone to At
lanta to assume her duties as principal
of the Atlanta school for the term Of
1922.
Miss Leila Ferrell and Jennie Salt
ers have gone to Atlanta, where they
will teach in the Atlanta school the
present term.
Miss Emma LiFrage has accepted
the position as principal of the Cedar
Swamp school the present term.
Mrs. Matte Ferrell, Miss Leila Fer
rell, Mr.. Jas. A. Ferrell and Mr.. Nc

THE SWEET POTATO is
A VALUABLE CROP.
Methods of Curing and Marketing of
Greatest Importance in Proper
Handling of Crop.

Sweet potatoes as an article of food
are worth as much as eggs, apples or
oranges, hence they are entitled to
receive the same consideration and
treatment.
First, there is as much difference
between a green, uncured sweet pota-
to and a ripe or cured potato as there
is in a green apple and ripe apple
or green orange and ripe orange.
Second, the ease with which the
sweet potato is grown, combined with
it's value and far-reaching Importance
both as a food and feed crop, makes
it worthy of our most careful consid-
Grafton. Annually 25 to so per cent.
Of the entire crop placed in storage is
lost, because of the poor methods en-
rloyed in harvesting and storing.
Three important factors are to be con-
sidered in handling crop of sweet
potatoes; namely, harvesting, grading
and curing. Negligence in any of
these may result in partial or COM
plete loss of the crop.
The time of harvesting should be
regulated and largely determined by
the maturity of the crop and the date
of the first light frost, which, in this
section, is usually the latter part of
October, and following which the crop
should be harvested and stored in a
specially constructed potato curing
house where the proper ventilation
may be given and the proper curing
methods employed to preserve the
crop under all sorts of weather con-
ditions. Immature and frost-injured
tubers are difficult to cure, and the
latter will not keep in storage. There
fore, if. possible, the crop should be
allowed to fully mature before being
harvested, but should be harvested be-
fore there is serious danger Of frost
injury. Harvesting should be done,
preferably, when the weather is bright
and the soil dry.
The only profitable and sensible
way to handle the sweet potato is
to cure it in a potato curing house
built according to government speci-
fications and sell them through the
state sweet potato association. The
proper curing Of the sweet potato
places it in condition to be shipped
to any climate under almost any
weather conditions, while by market
ing your crop through the state asso-
citation, you get advantages in freight
rates, the buying of crates at a lower
price and best market prices.

FAIR ASSOCIATION
OFFICERS MEET
PLANS ARE OUTLINED AT TUES
DAYS MEETING FOR THE BIG
SHOW NOVEMBER l.

A meeting of the directors and man.
agement of the Williamsburg Fair AS
sociation was held Tuesday morning
in the basement of the Kingstrce pub
lie library with a good numebr OF peo-
pie present. Much interest In the sue
cess of the coming fair was mani
Tested.
The fair will open Tuesday, Nov
ember 1st. This day will be desig-
mated Agricultural or Farmers Day
On Wednesday the old time tourna:
ment will be held just as it was last
year. This was one of the best fea-
lures of the fair last year and prom
ises to be still more popular this year.
A committee for the arrangement OF
details has already been appointed and
they will soon be booking the best
tournament horsemen of the county
for the event.
Thursday, as usual, is Educational
Day. It is desired that every child In
the county be here that day and they
are urged to bring their mothers and
fathers along with them. Free en-
trance will be given to all bona fide
school children and teachers who are
in the parade that day. Last year
some children had to pay admission
because the teachers did not have
enough interest in the event to put
their children in line of march. We
hope every school in the county will
take part in the parade this year.
Handsome prizes are offered the
schools making the best showing. We
want floats also in the parade.
Friday, the last day, will be foot
ball day. We are arranging to have
a splendid football game between two
strong schools. This will be splen-
did time for football fans to turn out
and enjoy a good game. The names
of the schools playing will be announc-
ed.later. On Friday there will be a
parade on the race course OF all prize
winning livestock.
During the four days OF the fair
Martin and Genet will give their won
derful free act, called the Foolish Ford
and other comical acrobatic stunts.
We are arranging for carnival at
fractions and hope to have plenty OF
music.
The fair is designated to make one
forget the hard times. Admission fee
is reduced to SOC and 25c, and it is
hoped that many people will take ad-
vantage of this reduction by coming
to the big show.
