M'MILLAN SAYS HE IS
 NOT TO BE CANDIDATE
Appreciates Honor, Enjoys Sport, But Cannot Con-
 sider Running, He Says

II am not going to allow my name to be used in the republican pri- maries as a candidate for mayor of tho city," said n. McNillan today, thereby putting at rest great deal of Conjecture over lis status in the mayoralty campaign since the an nouncement that he might run, as made several days ago.
 The ''old guard camp has been seriously upset by the possibilities of his running, realizing that the ma chine hold on the city was none too secure and that the entrance of a more or less independent candidate without a strict machine utilization might attract a large vote from the people who are sick of the regime as it has existed and are not well satis- fled with any of the candidates now in the race.
 All of this might work toward the election of the individual, something emnenty undesirable from the pres ent candidates standpoint.

Tt has been amusing to watch the development of things, and l appreciate the honor that the public has done mo. I sold my business and planned to retire only two weeks ago. I am now going to work at enjoying the fruits of my previous work and the opportunities it has made for me. If anyone wishes a few perfectly good application blanks for the candidacy for the office of mayor at the primaries, he may have them. They are still blank, there are no signatures not even one, l have not asked for any, nor have I accepted any. l did get the blanks for reasons of my own which thor oughly lived up to my fondest hopes.

tiful for the autumn season.
In the dining room a red color
scheme was used, the table being.

and expectant faces lent a charm
more wonderful than could be pro-

Seyenty-sixth Birthday Of Mrs.
Eiughey Beautifully OBJ
served.

The hospitable home of Mrs. N. G.
Hughey of Plum Branch, S. G., was
last Saturday the scene of happy
reunion to observe the -seventy-slxth

Hughey received her guests in the
old Seigler home, where forHmany
years she had ministered with loving
care to her own mother, Mrs. Jane

both fulfllment and promise. sHon-
or thy father and thy mother. that
thy days may be long in the land
which the Lord, thy God, gyeth
thee"

that the years had been many and
useful, and each year, like aSlittle
candle had shed it's ray of light and
love. For Mrs. Hughey is a woman
whom to know is to love, and none
indeed may pass her way without re-
ceiving a blessing. Here were gather
ed her children and grandchildren.

Plan Crop Rotations Now.

Clemson College, Sept. 18.-This
| is good time Of year to plan a sys-s
tematic crop rotation and begin to
put it into operation. The wisdom Of
using crop rotation has been prov
en- by numerous experiments and by
the. experiences Of our best farmers.
It is now more important than ever
before. Every farmer who has not.
already done so should make a start
on. rotation now, advises Prof. Q.
P. Blackwell, Chief Of the Agronomy
Division.
Land to be planted in small grains
can be planted now. Land to be.
planted in cotton next year should
be set aside now and should be ploW-'
ed deep this fall if it is a heavy soil,
and if it is a light soil it should be
plowed early in the spring. It should
be worked into a. firm smooth seed.
bed early in the spring in order to
give an early growth Of cotton.
Land to be planted in corn next
year should be planted to cover
crop early this fall. If the Land has
cotton on it this year, the cotton
stalks should be plowed under be-
fore planting to small grain as COW
er crop,
