The suggestion has been made to us that the scheme to organize a cotton seed oil mill be commenced on the building and loan plan, and we think the suggestion a good one. The plan would be something like this: Organize a company with a capital stock of, say $50,000. The shares will be worth $100 each; the stockholders to pay $1.00 per month per share. At the end of twelve months this would give $6,000 to commence work on, which - would be amply sufficient to buy a suitable site and erect all uecessary buildings. The machinery could then be easily purchased on credit, or sufficient money to buy machinery could be borrowed at a low rate of interest. The greater the profits of the mill, the sooner the stock would reach its par value, aud this plan would enable every clerk and salaried man in town to take some stock. We think favorably of the plan, and commend it to those interested in the enterprise. Let's get to work on some basis, for an oil mill here is a necessity, and it would bsa paying investment. We believe the mills in South Carolina pay an average dividend of 33 per cent, and the same rate of profit could be made here with a well equipped and well managed mill. * * * Mrs, Virginia D. Young is now the editor aud proprietor of the Fairfax Enterprise, We believe this is the only paper in South Carolina owned aud edited by a woman. * * Judgiug from the reports we get from the New York papers as to the South Carolina contingeut while in that city last week, the prospects for the success of a prohibition i/ilrol i-> (itf itaoi. o ra nrvf rorr an OAI1 _ UVAUv ucav J tui ai^ iivv i vuvvuraging. What "the governor of North Carolina said to the governor of South Carolina" was very much in evidence, and even the governor went cut "to see a man." * * * It would no doubt be a money saving idea for the county commissioners to establish a poor farm, and it would also insure better care for the paupers. Those who are able to do light work could then do something to help pay for their keep. The present plan seems to us to be very unsatisfactory, and is one .followed by very few counties, most of them having a poor house and farm. * * * The people of Bamberg owe it to themselves and the town to vote a tax sufficient to run our graded school ten months in the year and to erect a school building that will be an ornament to the town. The : present tax and bnilding are totally inadequate for the needs of the school. The trustees have done the , best they could with the funds in i hand, and the one thing needful now for a first class graded school system is money.

As a sample of what an old maid can do with a pen we submit the following: "Man is a two-legged animal that chews tobacco and walks on the forked end. Most men are bom, we never heard of but one that wasn't, and he was made of mud, just for a sample. Man's life is full of disappointment, growls ( and corncob pipes. He goes forth like a lion iu the morning and leaves the wood for his wife to chop, and in the evening he sneaketh home ; with his pants ripped, and raises cane about hard times. He has la grippe on road working days, and walks twenty miles to a circus. , He will chase a jack rabbit four miles through the snow, and then ' borrow a horse to ride half a mile to the post office."

It is reported that the Walhalla, S. C? Cotton Mill with a capital stock of $100,000, has made already this year $16,000 and has about $10,000 working capital. A new mill is reported from Raleigh, N. C. It will be built on the Neuse River, S miles frjni Raleigh. It will contain 10,(00 spindles and looms to man in act are brown sheeting. Ed. Lee and C. G. Latta are the parties interested. Concord, X. C., is to have another cotton mill, which will he located northwest of the town just above the Buffalo Thread Mills on the Southern R. R. R. E. Gibson, of Concord, is the principal promoter of the new enterprise. The capital stock will be $100,000. D. J. Carpenter, proprietor of the Xewtou, X. C., Hosiery Mills, which is one of the best managed little mill in the state, has all the orders he can fill for two months ahead. The present capacity is 150 dozen per day, but will have soon to be increased, as he makes a very superior grade, and once a customer, a customer always. Every cotton mill in Greenville, S. C., seems to be on the boom. Within the last few weeks new machinery has been placed in all the mills, and more is coming. The cotton mill industry is one of gen erai interest to every umzeu. Through the abundance of money distributed by the cotton mill people every business house is practically sustained. Stop the mills and you place a "for rent" sign on many doors, and drive business away from the city; "you decrease your population and almost make beggars of good, substantial men.

Wells, oi Wells, in the lower portion of the county was suddenly plunged last week in the depth of a great sorrow, caused by the accidental death of their youngest son and child, Bertie, a bright handsome lad of thirteen years. The lad in company with an older brother and others went on a hunt on Tuesday night of last week. After being out sometime the dogs "treed" a coon or 'possum, and prep arations were being made by the party to secure the game. Young Wells was standing on a log with a gun in his hand, Some how or other he slipped off the log and the gun was discharged, the load of shot taking effect in the unfortunate young man's face. He was immediately taken home by his companions where he lingered until Wednesday afternoon when his young spirit at half-past six took its flight and row awaits the coming of loved ones on the other side. This is truly a heart rending accident, and casts a shadow over the entire community in which the young man lived and was greatly loved.? Orangeburg Times and Democrat.

Last week we published an article in reference to this matter, and feel I ing its importance to our man} melon growers we publish the following article, written by Mr. X. L Willett: To those not conversant with watermelon growing, I will say thai land cannot be planted with safeh in watermelons for more than om year for fear of the melon vine wilt When this attacks a vine the who! vine dies. The ground, once innocu luted with the wilt fungas, is unfi again for growing melons. Instance nfp known wlif>rp melon wilt land la}r idle for seven years and unti pine sapplings as big as one's thigl had grown up, and yet when thes trees had been cut down and th land planted once again in melons the vines 011 the land were killed b; wilt. The United States goverment ha sent its various agents out to stud; the wilt problem; but the meloi growers have not it seems beei greatly helped thereby. One of the finest melon areas ii the South lies along the Port Roya railroad below Augusta. But s< much of this land has been used tt] and is now subject to wilt, that it i computed that in two years more all of the new lands on the road am contiguous to the road will have beei exhausted for melon culture. Land on the South Carolina and Georgia and Charlotte, Columbia am Augusta railroad are in as bad or ; worse condition than those 011 thi Port Royal road. Indeed most 0 the large buyers and growers 01 these roads migrated some two yeari ago to jpionua anu. cHium vxcuigia The culture of melons is mucl now like that of turpentine tree cut tins:. The melon man rents for i year or two lands in Florida, ant also in South Georgia. When thi; time is up he rents other lauds. Hi thus escapes the wilt. Possibly the most successfu melon grower today on the line o the Port Royal Road is Mr. Pi nek ney Brown, at Averill, S. C. Mr Brown has got fairly rich in thi business. His melons in New York carefully sorted and with his bran< on the car, will sell at a good figur when other cars will not. Now Mr Brown, being an intelligent gentle man and a student, became alarinei the past year for his future. In tw more years he saw that his avocatioi at his home place would certain! be gone, if something were not done p He studied fungi in all their phases 1 The result of his study was a scien tific formula as a preventive fo wilt. Mr. Brown experimented las season with this formula on te ! acres. It proved, I might say, ' perfect success; as only two hills i ; ten acres had the wilt. Mr. Browi is almost besides himself with jo 1 over his probable . discovery. I means not only much to himseli but much to all growers along th ' Port Royal road and to growers i other districts, and also to the rail 1 roads contiguous to said lands. There is reason, too, to fear tha the melon wilt is extending to othe plants. A remedy for one mean ' perhaps a remedy for al1. Since Mr Brown's remedy is the result o scientific research, and since land frequently wholly fail the secorn year through wilt, and since onl; two hills were attacked in ten acres I do not question that it is probabb that this gentleman has found, ir truth, a remedy. The cost per acre of remedy, Mr Brown says, is from $1.00 to $1.2' an acre. Under the application o: the remedy, too, Mr. Brown's vinei grew larger and were greener anc the fruitage lasted longer, thai where the application was not made It has therefore a genuine value out side of its being an antidote agaius wilt. Mr. Brown has not made publit his formula?he tells me. All tha he says as yet, is that he immerse! his melon seed in the preparation and also puts on his checks anoihe) preparation that can be bought ii any country store, and the total cos is as above. Mr. Brown thinki that he should derive some persona benefit from his discovery, and i con not blame him at all. Mr. Brown is not alone in hii testimony. The shipping house it New York to whom he ships, main railroad me.., and a large number oi melon growers, came to see his field It created a sensation along the whoh line of railroad. Of course, this it only one year's expeiiment. MiBrown would not guarantee that h< has an absolute lemedy. But no' only himself, but many other: interested in melons, do firmly believe that his remedy is a correct and j i sufficient one. If so, 110 discovery made in tin past year will mean more to tlx I melon shipping South, and will b( of greater value than will MiBrown's. His Life Was Saved. Mr. J.E. Lilly, a prominent citizet: of Hannibal, Mo., lately had a wonderful deliverance from a frightful death. In telling of it he savs: "1 was tHken with typhoid fever thai j ran into pneumonia. My lungs be| came hardened; I was s<> weak I j could not even sit up in bed. Noth ling helped me; I expected soon tt i die of consumption, when I heard of Dr. King's New Discovery.
