Mr. Lee Griffin struck a streak
of luck Monday morning when he
sold his entire crcp of cotton to
Mr. Frank Walters for 12 cents.
They shook hands and called
witnesses to the trade. Then it
was found that there had been a
misunderstanding. Mr. Griffin
expected 12 cents for each pound
but Mr. WflltPrs incicfoH
that he had bought the entire
crop for 12 cents. Then the
trade was called off.
Mr. J. W. Laney underwent a
second operation in a Charlotte
hospital Saturday for defective
sight, and he is doing as well as
could be expected. It will be
remembered that he was almost
totally blind about two years ago
and that he had one eye operated
on. Now it has failed again
and the doctors say it can't be
cured. The operation Saturday
was on the other eye. If it fails
to restore his sight in that eye he
will soon be almost totally blind
again.
nev. k. w. t^ato Has been the
pastor of five churches this year
and he has just closed the last
protracted meeting. He tells the
following interesting facts he
has observed: In one church all
the members and nearly everybody
in the community attend
Sunday school, and at this
church there have been ninety
additions during the year. At
gnnthpr rtinrrh mliorn
??^tTiicit ainju i
half the members attend Sunday
school there were thirty additions.
At the third one only
about one third of the members
attend, and there were nine additions.
At another about a
fourth of the members go to
Sunday school, and there were
six additions. At the fifth place
there has been no Sunday school
and there were just four additions
during the year. What
better argument can be given in
favor of Sunday school!, !

All farmers who are interested
in vetch seed are requested to *
meet here next Saturday after- 1
noon at 2:30 o'clock and hear the J
proposition that \V. J. Tiller has
for getting the seed at a reason- f
able price. Tell your neighbors \
to come also.
Mr. L. L. Parker ordered 100 <
pounds of vetch seed some time ]
ago, and they, or it, arrived
Monday. He was pleased. Then
the discovery was made that
black pepper had been shipped 1
instead of vetch seed. (Vetch '
seed and pepper are very much
alike, you know) it vou are in 5
need of pepper you might see i
him for the chances are that he 1
will not plant all that pepper.
A message came yesterday 1
that Mr. P. H. Stallings, a young 1
business man of Columbia, had 1

, A copperhead snake about
three feet long was found on the
dining table coiled around a
plate at the home of Messrs. J.
T. and D. F. Little one day last
week, and then there was consternation
in that home, for no
one knew where the snake came
from or how it got into the
house and on the table. The
house is well screened, and the
only solution was that a negro
who sleeps in the dining room
on some quilts brought the
snake in on the quilts from the
porch and dropped it off on the '
table. But the thought of bringing
the snake into the house in j
his arms struck terror to the j
negro's soul, and he declared he
"sho would shake dem quilts 1
nex' time." I

RIVERS AND ODOM FOR
REPRESENTATIVE
South Carolina's second primary
was held yesterday, and
the reports received up to the
time we go to press indicate that
Manninng, Bethea and Shealy
have been nominated by big
majorities.
The vote in the State as reported
up to an early hour this
morning stood as follows:
For Governor: Manning 68305,
Richards 40,664.
For Lieutenant Governor:
Bethea 65,742, Kelley 40,749.
For Railroad Commissioner:
Shealv 70,901, Fortner 34,627.
As may be seen by the table
below, the race for representative
in this county was very close.
Two precincts, Ousleydale and
Cat Pond, are not given. The
two boxes will total a little
more than 100 votes, and they
will not likely c!:ange the totals
materially. Odom and Rivers
will therefore be declared nominated.

Vetch Seed May Be Had
The Bank of Pageland has for
some time been working on a
proposition to help our customers
to buy vetch seed and
clover seed at reasonable prices.
Understand, we are not pointr
into the business of buying and
selling seed or any other commobity,
but we want to do all in
our power to help our farmer
customers to raise their feed
crops at home. We are in a
position to know what is spent
for Western hay, corn and oats,
and we are frank to say that if
the practice of the past two years
is kept up and if we have another
reverse in cotton prices the
whole community will be bankrupt.
The solution of the question is
to find what crops can be grown
profitable. Many of our own
farmers have had experience
with vetch, and they are requested
to be on hand Saturday to
tell us of their experience. Mr.
W. J. Tiller has at last obtained
an option on a limited quantity
of vetch seed at a resonable
price provided we place our
orders at once. He will meet
with the farmers of Old Store
township at Pageland Saturday
afternoon September 12th, at
2:30 and explain the whole proposition.
Let us all come together
and place an order before
it is too late.

London, Sept. 5, 3:09 A. M.?
The Daily Mail's correspondent
at Gisors, France, estimates the
total losses of the allies at 40,000
and those of the Germans at
200,000. He says a moderate
estimate of the German losses
places them at 20 percent.
Sheer weight of numbers has
pushed the Germans forward at
the amazing rate of 25 miles a
day, the corresponddnt adds.
