Planting Late Potatoes.

More attention ought to be given
the growing of late potatoes in this
section. There is a ready market in
the South for more potatoes than the
South grows any year. Two varieties
are recommended. The Lookout
Mountain and the Peachblow. The
peachblow is an improved variety of
the Lookout Mountain. In Virginia
enormous yields of these potatoes
are grown, often as many as fifty to
one. / see no reason why fine crops
should not be grown here.
Do not plant, before the first of
August. If you plant them in July the
probability is that the long hot dry
September spell will catch them when
the young potatoes have formed and
they will be injured. Planting after
the first of August will more likely
enable them to weather out that spell
and when the rain comes late in Oc-
tober they will make.
Plant them in deep rich soil, bot
tom land preferred. Lay off your
rows late in the afternoon and early
next morning drop your potatoes and
cover them with big furrow to pro-
tect them from the hot sun. In a few
days. before the spud comes through
drag off the furrow, leaving your
field as near level as possible. A half
ton 7-5-5 per acre is necessary to get
a good crop. They require little work

would take nearly two million dollars
out of the pockets Of users of gaso-
line in South Carolina.
Gasoline production is an industry
concentrated in the direction Of a
few corporations. The public is at
their mercy. They are entitled to just
treatment, they should be heard for
their cause, but it is highly necessary
that the representatives of the public
exercise energy and vigilance to see
that it is not ruthlessly imposed upon
in a period when other prices are de-
clining and the buying power of the:
dollar is increasing.

Death of Mrs. F. L. Tim
nerman. .Jr.

The sudden death of Mrs. F. L.
Zimmerman, Jr., in Edgefeld at the
home of her parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
John H. Cogburn, early Sunday
morning cast gloom over our COM
munity. All severing of human ties
is sad but the taking of young moth
er, leaving little son but little
more than day old, is inexpressably
sad. During Saturday Mrs. Thinner
man was resting well but grew worse
Saturday night. She received the
best possible attention during her
short sickness, everything possible
being done that would in any way
contribute to her relief and comfort.
Before her marriage Mrs. Thinner
man was Miss Carolee Cogburn. She
was born and reared in the Meeting
Street section Of the county: In her
girlhood days she attended school in
Edgefeld three years, winning several
medals for her excellent record. She
also made many friends here who re-
member her very pleasantly. Soon
after their marriage about two years
ago MIR. and Mrs. Zimmerman made
their home in Atlanta. During her
stay in Atlanta. she placed her church
letter with the First Baptist church,
of which she was a member at the
time of her death. Last fall Mr.. and
Mrs. Zimmerman moved to the Be
rea community, where they have since
resided.
Besides her devoted husband
and dear little son, Mrs. Thinner
man is survived by her parents, two
brothers, Earl and Stevens Cogburn,
and FIVE sisters, Mrs. c. j. Eager OF
Chattanooga; Mrs. Clint Hill Of
Meeting Street; Mrs. j. H. Major Of
Washington, D. c.; Mrs. D. c. Flem-
ing fsColumbia and Miss Reba Cog
burg Of Atlanta.
The funeral was conducted Mon
day afternoon at two o'clock at
Stevens Creek church by Rev. w. P.
Brooke and the interment took place
in the family square in the cemetery

to investigate the rise in the price of
gasoline is to do should be done
quickly.

months, of four cents, or there
