ures have come their way.

ureS nave come tnelf way.
But we must remember that they
have not failed in everything. They
put up a fight against the Jute trust
and they whipped it good. They or
ganized an insurance company more
than 20 years ago known as the Far
mers Mutual Insurance association OF
Newberry county. Which IS as good
as any other line Of Insurance in the
Estate. And we are due the success
of this association to our faithful and
efficient treasurer, Mr.. L. i. Eptlng,
who has served as treasurer for the
past 20 years. In 1902 Mr.. Eptlng
was made treasurer. The total
amount of insurance up to then was
S142.00O. At the present the total
amount is SS64,598, making ar in
crease since Mr.. Epting's administra-
ton of $722.59S. Evidently the
prosperity of any institution is due to
it's good, faithful, honest and upright
management. Just such as Mr.. Ep-
ting gives 10 every man. / have a
little over $4,000 insurance in the
company. l have been one Of the
policy holders ever since Mr.. Epting's
administration and | am thankful to
say that l have never had the occa-
SION to call on the company for one
cent and trust | may never have.
What else have the farmers done?
They ran Ben Tillman government
for more than 10 years. They built
an agricultural college. They have
one Of the finest cotton seed oil and
fertilizer mills connected with
wheat and corn mill and ice plant in
the South. And the success Of this
institution rests upon that little
John Wicker who is always as busy
as a bee in a tar bucket. SO my
friends, farmers, it is no use to con-
dcmn everything that comes around.
Remember the story of the spider who
up the slick wall tried to climb
He tried once again without counting
And every time he stuck fast;
He tried once again without counting,
And of course ne succeeded at last.

DR. Carson in Due West
A. R. Presbyterian

-. ~. IcSDy IeIIdA
Dr. Carson of Newberry, S. c.,
reached Due West last Tuesday and
began meeting that night in the Wo-
mans college. The series of meetings
continued through Sabbath night,
two services a day On Sabbath
morning Dr.. Carson preached in the
A. R. P. church. All of the other
services were held in the Memorial
hall and were much enjoyed through
out. Dr.. Carson is an able preacher
of the Gospel. On Sabbath night in
the Memorial hall he preached the
last sermon before a large audience.
The subject of his sermon was: "The
Love of Christ" This sermon was
treated in a logical and scriptural
way and received close attention
throughout the discourse. The Doctor
declared that love was the greatest
moving power in the world. Some
touching incidents were appropriately
woven into the discourse DR.. Carson
took occasion at the opening of the
sermon to say that he very much en-
joyed the privilege Of a weeks asso-
citation and fellowship with such fine
body of young people. He apprecia-
ted the privilege of being invited to
come and conduct this meeting. He
wished to congratulate DR.. and Mrs.
Robinson and their corps of teachers
in the fine work being done at the
Woman's college. The institution
had his sympathy and he would be
glad to speak word in its favor
when ever opportunity presented. He
was pleased that the Forward move
ment was contributing as goodly
share as it was toward this institution
and that the benefaction was well
bestowed. He rejoiced in the success
of the college and in the Forward step
she is taking in the way of new equip
ment.

POSSIBILITIES OF
INTENSIVE FARMING

That the proper diversifcation of
crops with sufficient cultivation, will
pay the farmers large returns has
been conclusively proven by Tom
Nelson, who lives south of Nash
vile. Although prices of all farm
products have been very low during
this year, Mr.. Nelson has har-
vested more than S400 worth of
produce from one acre and still has
large turnip patch from which to
reap a harvest.
Mr. Nelson's first crops on the
land this year were onions and Irish
potatoes. He harvested 10 bushels
of onions which he sold at 81 per
Lushel. He harvested 81 bushels of
Irish potatoes from his spring crop
selling them at $3.50 Part of the
land was then planted to sweet po-
tatoes, from which he harvested 206
bushels which was worth 40 cts. per
bushel at present. His fall Irish
potato crop from a part of the acre,
which has just been gathered, yield
ed 70 bushels of potatoes, which he
has sold at SO per bushel.
has sold at 3. per bushel.
Mr.. Nelson reports that while this
acre, of what is considered the poor
er part of his fran, was yielding
these produce crops, 81 acres plant
ed to cotton yielded him seven bales.
The cotton was planted in the rich,
black land part of the farm. OF
course. the ravages of the boil weevil
were the causes of the small yield
of cotton, but if the Gotten had yield
ed bale to the acre it would not
have been near so lucrative as the
truck crops.
This goes to show that if every
farmer would raise only few acres
of truck crops each year and culti-
waite the crops intensively, the failure
of the cotton crops for any reason
would not make this years labor
a total failure. This procedure
would also put the farmer in "a po.
sition to wait for the cotton market
selling their crop.-Nashville News

FOR HEALTH U. S.
Thousands Aided by instruction
In Care Of the Sick, Food Sc.

occurred in the same block.
The trouble between the principals
of the tragedy arose over traffic
in moonshine whiskey, according to
officers. Both men have been indict-
ed on liquor charges, and Graham last
year pleaded guilty in United States
Court at Texarl0ana to charge Of
selling whiskey and spent 60 days in
jail.
Although the two men were relat-
ed and both were said to have dealt
considerably in whiskey, they had
been on unfriendly terms several
years, officers said.
Witness Describes Tragedy
II. X. Buchanan a planter, who wit
messed the shooting, said that he
was walking down the sidewalk near
H. A. Hamilton's dry goods store, and
had Just passed Graham standing
near the curb, when Stockton came
up from around the corner OF the
Hamilton store. He was carrying a
rifle, according to Buchanan The
planter said he paid little attention
to the weapon, however, until Stock
ton nelred him and Graham.
When within few feet OF Graham
Stockton raised his rifle to his should
er, according to Buchanan, and said:
1--WE got you now, damn you"
Graham jumped behind Buchanan
thereby placing the planter in direct
range of Stockton's rifle. Buchanan
said he stepped aside just as Stock
ton fired, and the bullet struck Gra-
ham in the chest. As Graham fell,
Buchanan said he caught him by the
left arm and lowered him to the
ground.
Fires Twice More
Stockton then walked up to the
prostrate man, took deliberate aim
and fired two more shots into his body
Buchanan said. One of them struck
him in the breast and the other in the
head, causing instant death.
Buchanan said that no argument oc.
Cured before the shooting. The onl,
words spoken were; I've got you now
damn you," the planter told officers

scene, said they saw pocket knit,
