Is Valuable Place.
There may have been other causes
than intelligent farming in the up
building of the Drake place. In the
front yard, on conspicuous sign, is
the warning that any and all agents
are forbidden to come on the place
and that any agents delivering gooCs,
etc., will be prosecuted. Mr.. Drake
believes in living at home and buying
from the home merchant, as one would
infer from the sign in the front yard.
and he does not propose to have the
fruits Of his labors, Or that Of his
laborers, go for the upkeep Of un-
known agents. =
Those who have doubted that farm
ing could be made ito pay in South
Carolina should visit the Drake farm.
The skeptics and doubters who have
continually said, II told you so," upon
hearing stories Of abandoned farms
and deserted homes would be put to
utter confusion.

Place in history that others of his

did before, he has gone a long ways
towards solving the problem Of the

MOSQUE TO BE RAZED.
Famous Shrine In Western World Will
Denote Death of Islam.

The Moslem mosque in Highland
Park, suburb that for more than n
year has stood as the only outward
symbol of Islam in the western world,
is to be raZed, and the property sold,
says a Moslem, Mich, dispatch.
Injection Of reforms into the ancient
religion of the prophet which it is said
caused dissention in the ranks of Mo-
hammedaps here, and lack of interest
on the part of most of them, were Civ
en- by Muhahhad Karoub, wealthy
Moslem real estate man, whose deyo-
,tion to the cause led him to sponsor
the movement, as the reasons for the
abandonment of the project to propa-
gate the Islamic faith in this country.
Added to these Is the fact that the
property has been placed on the tax
rolls by the Highland Park adminis-
tration, and Mr.. Karoub is compelled
to pay taxes on the mosque, city off,
Gals holding it is vacant property
not used for religious worship"
Mr.. Karoub says his efforts to
found a religious center for his people
cost $4,000. While expressing his dis
appointment at being forced to adopt
this course, he added he had mo word
of censure for my people," adding if
they differed from himself as to the
Interpretation Of the doctrine of Mo-
hammed, "it is their affair and their
right"
Mr.. Karoub came to America sever
al years ago, n penniless immigrant
from Arabia. Settling in Detroit, he
obtained employment as a laborer in
an automobile factory, and by saving
money and making judicious invest
ment, became wealthy, it is said.

Early Cotton Better.

Cotton on the Drake farm was plant
ed on April 8 and April 27. Twenty
four days doesn't make much differ
ence in the calendar, maybe, but it
will mean a difference of one-fourth
Of bale of cotton per acre. according
to Mr.. Winters estimate of Mr..
brakes crop. Cotton planted on April
8 is Xpected to produce n bale of cot
ton to the acre, according to Mr..
Winters, while that planted on April
81 is not expected to produce but
three -fourths of a bale. With the eN-
ception Of the planting there was no
difference in the treatment accorded
the two fields of cotton.
Crimson clover, velvet beans and
other cover crops have been used
literally to make fertile the soil on
this farm. They have taken the place
of fertilizers that most farmers buy in
sacks and for which they pay good
money obtained from the sale Of cot
ton. Mr.. Drake has stopped this cut
flow of money by growing his own
fertilizer.
Where no clover preceded the cotton
crop the difference in production is al
so expected to be onc"fourth Of q bale
per acre. In other words, the fields
where clover was turned under are en-
pected to make a bale of cotton more
to every four acres than the fields
where no clover was grown.
Mr.. Drake busted his cotton with
calcium arsenate four times during the
month of July, the total cost being
$3.50 per acre. He would have busted
during August also but there has been
no rain on. the Drake farm since July
Z, making it impossible to use the
dusting method to any advantage.
Mr.. Winters explained that Mr.
Drake did not leave the dusting opera
ton to some negro" but that the
owner of the farm, with the aid of d
son, did the work. Twelve nights dur

Good Corn Crop.

The corn crops grown by Mr.. Drake
have been equally as successful as the
cotton crops There has been no such
thing as need on the Drake farm and
the cribs have been filed with the
healthy ears of red and white corn.
The methods used have been similar
to those. used in cotton, crops being
rotated to bring out the best that is in
the land.
A cotton gin the front yard takes
care of the fleecy staple grown on the
Drake farm. Silos and corn cribs, to
say nothing of fat porkers, take care
of the yawning crops Of corn and grain.
A bank in Anderson is said to find one
of its best depostors in the man who
has brought it all about, showing that
the game of cooperation has worked
to the good of all concerned.
When Mr.. Drake acquired this farm
there were seventeen huge gullies on
the place, (for the benefit Of those not

said that gully" is a ditch that
nature rather than man has dug by

The wcevil came but it did not stay.
1t might have been that far away the

the more probable reason is that the

the Drake farm is said to have less
