For some months Mr. T. J.

On December 28, last, Mr. Paul and Miss Leila Jeffries were married at the home of her mother, Mrs. Genie Jeffries, but as it was impossible for her to leave her mother then to make her home in Edgefield, Mr. Paul did not make a public announcement of their mar riage until recently in Edgefield. Saturday he made his last week-end trip to Augusta, for Monday he brought Mrs. Paul with him to reside permanently in Edgefield. They are for the present occupying rooms in the Addison building. Edgefield ex tends a very cordial welcome to Mrs. Paul. 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 weathe'r 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 a 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 BATTERY SERVICE STATION Iii order to supply the increasing demands of our patrons for modern and improved battery service we have installed a com plete battery station. We can charge and repair any type of battery or we can.make a new battery for your car, as we are so well equipped in every detail. We will rent you a battery while yours is being charged, so you will not be deprived of the use of your car. Oar Prices are Reasonable If you want an early delivery, better file your order for a Ford car at once. YONCE MOTOR CO. EDGEFIELD, SOUTH CAROLINA ing and usually the bugs do not hurt them.

Timmerman, Jr., in Edgefield at the home of her parents, ' Mr. and Mrs. John H. Cogburn, early Sunday morning cast a gloom over our com munity. All severing of human ties is sad but the taking of a young moth er, leaving a little son but a little more than a day old, is inexpressibly sad. During Saturday Mrs. Timmer 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. Timmer 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 Edgefield 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 Mr. and Mrs. Timmerman made their home in Atlanta. During her stay in Atlanta, she placed her church letter with the Frist Baptist church, of which she was a member at the time of her death. Last fall Mr. and Mrs. Timmerman moved to the Be rea community, where they have since resided. Besides her devoted husband and a dear little son, Mrs. Timmer 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 of?Columbia 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. McKendree News.

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.
