Mccormick, Sept 29.-Dr. ]. B.
Adams of Plum Branch, this county,

farmer and his wife are the parents
of five children within the past two
years. DR.. Adams is telling it that
Jim and Ella Hill are the fond pa

born to them and triplets last week.
OF the last three two were boys and
one a girl. Jim and Ella had not ex-
actly prepared or selected names for
so many and called on DR.. Adams
for names. DR.. Adams is a very OBJ
liging kind of doctor and so he
named the boys Jasper and Garrett

Keeping Sweet Potatoes.

Sweet potatoes should be thor
oughly dried out when dug before
they are stored or after if they are
to be kept. When dug they contain
an enormous amount of moisture and
will rot easily unless some Of this
moisture is removed.
The sweet potato house or kiln
should be equipped with a stove or
furnace so the temperature may be
raised. This evaporates the moisture
and dries the potatoes. They will
then keep.
When the potatoes are being dug
all injured specimens should be
thrown out. No specimens that are
not sound and free from disease
should be put in the kiln or house.
The potato house should be built
so it will be easily ventilated. Where
moisture accumulates on the tubers
or in the house during winter the
temperature should be raised to evap-
crate it.-Farm mad Ranch.

Mr.. Gresham, who was in the city
yesterday, said that automobiles
were parked for two miles in each
direction from the Watson home,
motorists being compelled to walk
the remainde- of the distance. More
than that, in many places the auto
mobiles were parked two and three
deep, so anxious were those who had
come from distance to be present
at the funeral services.
X ssThe anguish Of hundreds of per-
sons was touching" Mr.. Gresham
said. "Hundreds and hundreds, who
knew Mr.. Watson as a personal as
well as political friend mourned as
though they had lost a brother.
From early morning until the last
dirt had been heaped beneath the
flower covered mound, dustcovered
cars came to Thomson from all di-
rections. The smaller and more in
expensive cars seemed to predomi-
nate, but there were handsome cars
too, showing that the high as well as
the humble mourned the passing of
Watson"
Mr.. Gresham said that it was diff
cult for one in this part of the coun-
try to conceive of the vast throng
that swarmed into Thomson for the
funeral services. While the railways
conveyed many to Thomson, it was
the highways that brought the ma
jority of those into the city as last
mark of respect for the late senator.
"Throughout South Georgia it
seemed that business was suspended" !"
Mr.. Gresham said, 'sbecause of the

Are Jurors TO BIame?.

= So declared Judge Hayne F. Rice,
in special charge to the grand jury
of Greenwood county Saturday after
noon, after that body had brought in
its final presentment. Judge Rice cas-
tigated the petit juries of the state

lIndex-Journal, characterized boot
|leggers as the lowest type of citizens
fin community, blamed liquor for a
large percentage Of crime against
The person and declared that the law
against carrying weapons was entire
lily too lax.
There is much meat in this charge,
and it is something all citizens Of
South Carolina should think about.
Much along this line has been said
previously, but the point cannot be
too deeply considered. Judge Rice is
quoted as saying:
ssConditions in South Carolina gen
Ierally, not so much in Greenwood and
lAbbeville counties, are such that
ought to give all citizens concern" "
Judge Rice declared. "Charges are
made that juries don't mete out JUS
tice. Atrocious murders have been
committed and white men charged
with the deeds have walked out free
men. Not one white man charged with
murder, tried before me, has been
sent to the electric chair. Is it pos
sible that all are innocent? Now in
four cases, the wounds of the dead
men were in the back, yet the men
who committed the deed had the face
to claim self defense, and juries al
lowed them to go free. Did those jul
ries believe the stories set up by these
men? It is unreasonable.
.'In eighty per cent of the mur-
ders, the murdered man does not
have a dogs chance for his life. How
5 jetit juries can take their oaths to
try them by the law and the evidence
and turn them loose is more than I
can see.
eff we don't have justice in the
courts, whose fault is it? 1t is not the
solicitors fault. All the judges can
do is to give fair trial. What body
decides the guilt or innocence of the
accused? 1t is the p etit jury. When
we come down to brass tacks, it is
the petit jury that is<to blame.
Executing man for murder will
deter crime. Men are not going to kill
VIXEN they know they will pay the
death penai..J. When juries try cases
by The law .ld the evidence, then
the crsne will decrease. A judge does
IInotsdare intimate what he thinks in
a trial. A man charged with murder
will swear anything. The state
doesn't want any innocent men con-
victed. It does not demand that jul
ries give justice by trying cases oy
the law and the evidence. ."-Green-

Is Dairyiing Profitable?

/
Is Dairying Profitable /?
Is dairying profitable. and if 50,
when? is a question asked by D. g.
Sullins, Of the Georgia Experiment
Station, in a recent bulletin. In ans
wering his own question Mr.. SuHins
says: ..
"On nearly every dairy farm a few
cows are kept at an excellent profit,
some at a small profit and some at
an actual loss. A study of any herd of
cows, unless they have been very
carefully selected, will show that
there are wide variations in the pro-
|! duction of milk and butter fat and in
the economy of production. There
are always individuals in herd which
produce milk more efficiently than
other individuals, making it possible
to grade the cows according to their
production and cost to the owner.
, "Keeping daily milk record and
making fat tests at regular intervals
is the only satisfactory method OF
determining what individual cows do
with the feed given them. The cost
of keeping such a record is small and
is more than offset by the advantages
to be had from the record. Having a
daily milk record makes it possible
to feed cows with the greatest econ
omy. Such records enable the herds
man to detect sickness quicker than
otherwise would be possible. This in
turn enables him to avoid the use Of
unwholesome milk and to give prompt
attention to animals in poor health.
Daily records also make it possible
to Judge the work of different milk
ers. Experiments have shown that
with certain cows some mixers are
able to get as much as Is per cent
more milk than others
"The greatest advantage to be had
in having a record showing the in
dividuality Of cows, of course, is max
ing it possible to eliminate the un-
profitable ones and build up herds.
A mixer might be able to determine
a difference between the very best
and poorest cows in herd but he
would not know how to draw the line
of distinction in it's proper place
without record. The cow giving the
greatest amount of milk is not neces-
sarily the best cow. This holds true
also for the cow giving the richest
milk. Both quantity and quality must
be considered for it is the total fat
production that counts.
Beginners should study this mat
ter closely. In purchasing cows they
should obtain information concern
ing the actual value of animals un-
der consideration. Poor mixers are
always for sale and cause most of the
discouragement among dairymen. a
few improbable cows probably caus-
ed many dairymen to become discour-
aged during the last few years. Such
Encouragement might have been
avoided had the proper steps been
taken in selecting and eliminating
animals. Farm and Ranch.
