Cotton VS.. Cattle.

The handwriting on the wall is that
cattle raising must supercede cotton
production as the leading agricultural
interest of York county.
1t is not matter of preference; but
matter Of necessity and sooner or
later the change will come about au-
tomatically.
OF course it does. not mean that all
cotton. farmers will become cattle
raisers, because all cotton farmers are
not capable of raising cattle.
Cattle raising is higher type Of
farming that is cattle production.
Successful cattle raising calls for a
high order of intelligence, close atten-
ton to business, and good manage
ment ..a,
There is very little cattle raising in
York county now. There are people in
the cattle business; but they are most
ly cattle spectators rather than cattle
raisers.
Successful cattle raising involves
proper selection to begin with, careful
breeding of good stock, proper pastur-
age, intelligent attention, home raised
feed, patience, etc.
The returns from cattle raising de-
pend upon the intelligence, care and
industry with which the business is
conducted.
And if the cattle business is ever
developed in this country at all, it
must be developed from the ground up,
from small beginnings. Big capital
may be employed of course; but it
cannot be employed successfully with
out large experience.
1t will be found in this section, how
ever, as elsewhere, that the more at
tention our people give to cattle rails
ing, the more interest will be developed,
the more interest the more enthusiasm,
and the more enthusiasm the more
profit
To be sure our farmers are going to
keep on giving their attention to cot
ton; but it is already plain to most of
them that they must supplement their
efforts in this direction with other
activities, and of all the possible lines
that hold out more or less inducement,
nothing seems more obvious than
cattle.

o, e, WILKINS DEAD

The body of o. f. Wilkins, former
ly of Yorkville, who died in Charlotte
last night, was brought to the home
of Mrs. r. C. Allein on Wright avenue,
Yorkville, this morning. 1t was stated
that the funeral will be held at 800
o'clock this afternoon from the Church
of the Coed Shepherd, Episcopal, of
which church Mr.. wilkins was q mem
ber during his residence here.
o. Edward wilkins, aged about 62
years, for seventeen years president OF
the former First National Bank of
Yorkville and resident Of this town
until the summer of 1920, when he
moved to Charlotte, died in the Presby-
terian Hospital in that city last night
apparently from the effects of taking
an overdose of a poison drug. Mr..
wilkins was found about 2 o'clock
yesterday afternoon at independence
Park in Charlotte by Charles Good
man, a taxi driver. He was carried to
the hospital where he never .regained
consciousness. Bad health and finan-
cial reverses are believed to have
caused him to take his own life.
Mr.. wilkins with the late Robert c.
Allen came to Yorkville in 1903 and
organized the First National Bank OF
Yorkville. In January 1920, that insti-
tuition was taken over by the Peoples
Bank and Trust Co., and several
months later Mr.. wilkins and his
family moved to Charlotte, where they
have since lived. He was engaged in
various business enterprises in that
town and it is stated by close friends
that since leaving Yorkville he had
suffered a number of financial reverses
that preyed upon his mind.
He was a native Of Cherokee county,
born Nov. %, 1860, and came to York
vile 10 years ago from Gaffney, where
he had been in business. He leaves
many relatives in Cherokee and
Spartanburg counties. Mrs. r. c.
Allen of Yorkville is a sister Of Mrs.
wilkins. His widow and two daugh-
ters, Misses Sarah and Marjorie Will
kins survive him.

society won't do to run a church by.
dience who think that if they were in
the social swim with certain other
women they would be supremely
happy even as there are many. men
who think that if they could be elect
ed to a political office they would have
achieved perfect satisfaction. But
much so called high society is much
like some celery, it is rotten at the
top and men and women should know
that perfect satisfaction will come and
can come only through redemption
from sin in the blood of Jesus Christ.
Money won't bring this satisfaction
of which l speak, said Mr.. Huggin.
Some of the -wealthiest men have
ever seen are among the most restless
and most dissatisfied men / have ever
known. There can be no complete
comfort and satisfaction in earthly
things alone The minister spoke his
opposition to card playing which he
said is a habit that comes from the
devils own fingers and to dancing
which was dangerous thing. He said
that he did not believe in turning
church members out for dancing and
card playing; but he did think that
good Christians should make every
effort to get those who indulged in
such practices to refrain from them.
There are so-called good white men,
he said in the course of his sermon
who think it is perfectly all right to
cheat poor, ignorant negroes out of
their money, and there were women
who talked in the missionary society
meetings about saving the poor saw
ages of Africa while at the same time
they were scheming and planning how
to beat the wash woman at home.
At the conclusion Of the service Rev.
j. K. Walker, pastor of Trinity
church publicly expressed the appre-
citation of his congregation and him.
self to Rev. Huggin for the great
service that he had rendered the
church and the people of the commu-
nifty through the meeting.

State Forestry Organization.

Following a conference held in the
state house last Tuesday on the call of
Governor Harvey and presided over by
the governor, steps were taken for the
organization of State Forestry asso-
citation with the general purpose of
conserving what is, left of the timber
supply in South Carolina and promot-
ing reforestation:I, =, .s
In attendance on the conference
were a number of leading conserva-
tionists from different parts of the
state, and interesting and instructive
addresses were made by j. Girven Pc
ters and James r. Scott, of the United
States forestry bureau. :.
o. AS the, immediate outcome of the
conference, the governor, in a resolu-
ton offered by Raven l. McDavid of
Greenville, was requested to appoint a
committee to take charge of the work
of perfecting a statewide forestry as
sociation, made up Of local organiza-
tions in each of the respective coun-
ties.
BY thoughtful and progressive
minded people throughout the state
this movement is regarded as one of
very great Importance. Those people
who have reflected over the situation
are arousing themselves to a realiza-
ton of the terrible loss the state has
suffered through the tremendous waste
of it's timber resources, both actual
and potential, and If anything is ever
to be done to begin repairing the dam
age on behalf of the future, there will
never be better time than now to
commence.
1t was developed at the conference
that an effort will be made at the next
session Of the general assembly to Sc
cure the establishment of a forestry
commission with such reasonable pow
ers as may be delegated to it to the
end that it may, through educational
and other means, build up necessary
sentiment on this important subject.
