CONSTRUCTION Of SHIPS
RUSHED BY JAPANESE
BY DUKE y. PARRY,
International News Service Staff
Correspondent.

TOXIC. oct. 6.-Fears that the
double eight battleship program of
Japan would be seriously held up by
the recent dockyards strikes of Kobe
have been dispelled by a recent semi
official statement of tho government.
Toxic was warned when the strikes
were at their worst that the Mitsubishi
and Kawashah docKyards. which were
building parts of the great new field,
could not be held responsible for the
delay in the completion of the vessels
provided the strikes We're not settled
Immediately.
The strikes were not settled imme-
dlately, but it is understood now that
when they were settled the officials of
the companies concerned were per-
suaded to give the naval orders prece-
dence over all others if need be- thus
making possible the completion of the
ships building there on schedule time.
of the five battleships and five bat
tie cruisers now building, the battle
ships Mutsu and Tosa, both of them
under construction at the Yokosuke
naval yards, will be ready for launch
ing in December. The Mutsu is a 3S,-
500 ton ship, while the Hosa is a 80, 900
tonner. The Kaka, sister ship of
the Tesa, has been building at the Ka-
wasam yards, in Kobeb, and was con-
sequently in danger during the strikes
at that yard. But the Kaga, the semi
official announcement implies, will be
ready for the water in November. The
cruisers TaHao and Atago are both to
be started IN January. These vessels
will be OF $1,000 tons displacement.

BUCK UP

Buck up when you are tiring,
Your foes are firing, too;
Buck up, the fights not hopeless
Until they've conquered you.
Buck up, though bruised and battered
Still battle, tooth and nail;
Though flesh and muscle falter
Don't let your spirit fail.
Buck up, the will within you
Unconquered must remain,
For man must face his duty
In spite or grief or pain.
There still is time to onquer
However dark the view,
Unless you let misfortune
Destroy your spirit, too.

Delegation Will Act.

No action was taken by the County
Executive Committee looking to fill
ing the vacancy in the first magis-
terial district caused by the death of
Magistrate N. L. Brunson. A call
was issued by the county chairman
to the committee to meet in the
Court House Monday morning, but
as quorum was not present no
meeting of the committee was held.
Hon. M. P. Wells, the chairman of
the delegation, was promptly notified
that the committe would take no ac-
tion, so the delegation will recon-
mend some one to the governor for
appointment. UP to this time the
names of Mr.. ]. B. Tompkins, Mr.. j.
P. Nixon, Mr.. T. B. Greneker, Mr..
S. A. Brunson and Mr.. w. e. QUITS
have been spoken of as possible ap-
plicants. It is very probable that the
delegation will hold meeting in a
few days and make recommends
ton to the governor.

We went out in the lobby of the ho-
tel to find windows broken and wire
screening torn away. l got some of
the stones and examined them. They
were as hard as rocks, so the
crops must have suffered if the storm
spread over much territory outside
the city.
Later, I heard that a flock of pig
cons flying over the city were moved
to the ground. The light globes along
the street were broken and the tops
of automobiles riddled with holes.
This sounds, 1 am afraid, like a SEN

Tribute to MIR. N. L. Brunson


The notice of the death of Uncle
Nick Brunson, as we called Judge N.
L. Brunson, distressed me very much
indeed.
My! how wildly I remember his
dear, good father when he would
come to Edgefeld, we all felt like
taking off our hats to the distinguish
ed, sanity old gentleman. OF the
eight Brunson boys, five of whom
went in the Confederate army and
reflected great credit on their -coun-
try and family, don't suppose Edge
field ever produced eight men that
had higher sense of honor or more
fearless and high toned spirit of rec
titude than the Brunson boys, as they
were called.
N. L. Brunson in 'his life had an
exalted conception of right and fear
of any sort was utterly foreign to his
cosmos.
In my short visits in latter years
to Edgefeld never failed to look up
Uncle Nick and what a friend of in
teresting information. He cou !, talk
about the war in which he fought as
a boy so honorably, When used to
go into talk with his gallant broth
er, Capt VIM. Brunson, Ialways long
ed to be able to have stenographer
to take down what he, like his broth
er, so intelligently related.
My! When we think of how these
high toned gentlemen are leaving for
over yonder, it saddens our hearts.
The memory of them, though should
emulate coming generations to live
up to the high ideals of honor they
have left behind in this vale of tears.
N. L. Brunson was modest, re-
tiring man until a question Of JUS
tice or right came up and he was
concerned, then he would bristle up
and assert himself with vigor. His
brother, Capt. VIM. Brunson, one of
the bravest and best soldiers ever
produced by any county, should and
would have been colonel of reg
iment, but was kept down by a fel-
low comrade in arms who was Slight
ly wounded and remained home,
thereby preventing him winning his
promotion for his gallantry.
AS I have said, Jncle Nick was
only private, but went through the
entire four years of the struggle be-
tween brothers and won his laurels
for bravery and fortitude.
He did more good in life than he
did harm, and we feel sure Mer-
ciful God will balance his account
justly.

The Fall Crop of Irish Potatoes

Clemson College, June 20.-Large
quantities of Irish potatoes are ship
ped into the South from the North
and the Middle West during the fall,
winter and spring, and yet expert
ments have shown that two crops of
Irish potatoes may be grown on the
same land in South Carolina in nine
months. The spring crop should sup
ply our needs from June to Novem-
Der then the fall crop should be ready
for harvest. This second crop may
be kept in perfect condition from
the time of harvest until the first
crop of the spring harvest is ready.
1t is plain therefore that we can have
Irish potatoes the year round from
our own farms.
The difficulty in growing this Sec
ond crop is in securing a perfect
stand, but since the Introduction of
the Lookout Mountain variety there
is little or no trouble in this respect,
provided the land is we'll prepared
and tubers properly planted. 1t re-
quires IL to 15,bushels to plant an
acre. Seed should be secured early
and stored for planting in July about
the middle of July giving best re-
suits.
Fall potatoes should be planted
and cultivated exactly as the spring
crop. A cool, moist soil that is well
drained is best. Potatoes may follow
any spring crop that is harvested
during June and early July. The land
should be broken to 8 in, double
disced, and rows laid off with SHOW
ell plow 8 feet apart. The tubers
should be covered to 5 inches with
two burrows.
| A good fertilizer for the Piedmont
region is 800 to 1000 pounds pei
acre of an S-4-3-; in sections where
the soil is more or less sandy 1,OO0
to 1900 pounds of an S-4-5. The fer
tilizer should be thoroughly mixed
before the tubers are dropped.
Just before the potatoes begin to
break through it is well to run g
spike-tooth harrow across the rowl
to break the crust and kill the grass
| Cultivation should be similar to that
for cotton except that at the last cul
ivation the soil should be thrown to-
wards the plants so that he tubers
Imay be well covered to prevent frost
Injury.
4 Harvesting may be done as soon a:
1.-THE vines are killed by frost, or two
burrows may be turned over the po
tatoes which may be allowed to re
main in the field to be dug at any con
venient time. After harvesting po
tatoes should be placed in bags anc
stored in a house where the tenn
], perature will not go below 80 de
igrees.

Augusta's Big Community
Barbecue.

DdTOGCuG.
Hon. John Shelton Williams, for
mer Comptroller of the Currency
and one of the foremost figures in the
financial world at the present time, is
the latest addition to the list of no
tables who will honor the Community
Barbecue at Augusta by their pres.
ence July 18th, which will be put on
under the auspices of the Augusta
Board of Commerce.
Invitations have been sent to Gov.
ernor elect Thos. W. Hardwick, Gov.
R. A. Cooper of S. c., Georgia United
States Senators, Congressman Carl
Vinson and James Byrnes, Postmaster
General Hays, Senator Oscar W. I'm
derwood of Alabama and many others
prominent in official circles. The
length of the present session of con-
gress will determine whether most of
them will be present or not.
The State Press Associations the
State jewelers. Association, and the
Southeastern Association of Post
Office Officials will be in session in
annual convention in Augusta the day
of the Barbecue, and will beathe
quests of the city at the great spread.
The members of the State Press As
sociation will stop over to sample
Richmond county's favorite culinary
pastime on their way to Tybee.
Last year more than 5000 people
sat down at the same time, under
the same roof, to the Barbecue staged
by the Committee of Fifty of the
Board of Commerce. 1t was the larg-
est gathering of it's kind in the his
tory of Barbecues. This year: it is
planned to handle many more, and
with as much ease as the 1920 gath
ering was handled.
The Barbecue will be under the
personal direction of Clem CastleE
berry Barbecue generalissimo par ex-
cellence, the man responsible for the
great success of the 1920 undertake
ing. He will be responsible for the
committees, including one made up
of ladies, headed 81 M Mrs We. g: W Bat
tey. Mr.. Castleberry will provide the
palate ticklers, and the ladies. will
distribute them, both have the bene-
fit of last years experience in the
matter, and inasmuch as the food
and the service last year were per-
feet, it is difficult to see how they
can live up to the promise of improv-
ing this year.
The object of the Barbecue is to
bring together the people of the
trading territory of Augusta and the
people of the city itself. The Board
of Commerce, of which Mr.. Wallace
B. Pierce is president and H. A.
Wheeling is secretary, wants to break
down any barrier that might exist
between the people of the city and
the surrounding territory.
Chairman M. G. Ridgely of the
committee of fifty announced that
the method of distributing tickets
and invitations will be the same as
last year. The merchants of the city
will purchase the tickets and send
them out to their friends in the trad
ing territory of Augusta.
The Barbecue organization has an
nounced that they will use only
HOME GROWN products. All food
used at the Community Barbecue will
re raised within one hundred miles
of Augusta, and is strong proof that
Georgia and South Carolina need de-
pend on no others states for supplies

tomac founded it on an estuary Of

or four decades ago the last "court-

around Port Tobacco. Its water trans
portation dwindled, and the building

WOMAN TENNIS STARS
TO MEET In AMERICA
BY Henry L. Farrell,
Omitted Press Staff Correspondent

New York, June 18.-Looking for
ward to future battles, the Lenglen-
Mallory tennis encounter appears as
promising as any number on a pro-
gram filled with summer classics.
When the two greatest women ten
mis- players come to America after
battling at St. Cloud and Wimbledon,
most anything can be expected.
There is no love lost between the
French and American stars. Bitter
feeling ran through the French hard
court championships, in which Mile.
Lenglen defeated Mrs. Mallory in the
finals.
The ill-feeling was somewhat re-
lievcd when Mile. Lenglen jumped
over the net after the finals and
shook the hand of the American wo-
man.
The French championships proved
that Mile. Lenglen is not so superior
in her class as she was generally rat
ed. She did win the title, but victory
came to her more through Mrs. NAL
individual brilliance.
Mile. Lenglen respects the ability
of the American woman as was shown
in the finals of the French tourna-
ment when she resorted to safety
first metrods and abandon her usual
dashing smashing game.
Mrs. Mallory is now in her great
est form. She was permanently off
in the finals and practically beat her
self. Conditions will be reversed
when she gets the flashy French star
on American courts.

To Prevent Steel Rusting.

Steel which has become rusty can
be cleaned by brushing it with paste
composed as follows: Half an ounce
Of cyanide Of potassium, half an ounce
Of CASTLE soap, m ounce Of whiting
and water sufficient to form the paste.
The steel should be washed after the
paste has been applied, in a solution
Of half an ounce of cyanide Of potas-
stun in two ounces Of water. On the
other hand rust may be prevented on
steel parts by applying the following
mixture with a brush, just as If 1t
were varnish: One part caoutchouc,
Is parts turpentfne. These ingredi-
ents must be dissolved in a gentle
beat and then eight parts Of boiled
Gil should be added. The whole IL

POLO HANDICAPPED

they have had neither players nor

breeding was stopped during the war
and many players were forced to sell
their ponies. AS to players, we have
lost men like Captain Leslie Cheape,
Captain Noel Edwards, the brothers
C.,enfell and many others killed or
disabled.
"a polo player is in his prime be-
tween 80 and 40, and all the men
playing in the form required for
England are something about 40 and
over, instead of round about 35.
"Of course, polo was stagnant dur

viving because most of our cavalry
regiments are in Ireland, where polo
is impossible. as it is in India, be-
cause of disturbances. And because
Of the war there are no new young
players.
"Our great trouble is with ponies.
We have not our own studs, and it
is difficult to borrow or buy ponies

championship polo with them.
"Please do not think l am COM
