March on Charleston March
20th, South Carolina Day at the
Exposition.
How about the organization of
that military company? Is there
not some one enough interested
in the matter to call a meeting
for the purpose of organizing if
possible?
Recently we suggesteI bien
nial terms for all municipal of
ficers. The charter of the town,
however, provides for annual
elections, and as the constitution
prohibits the amendment of
charters, the only way by which
the change could be affected
would be by surr.,ndering the
present charter and- taking out
a new one under the gener: l- w.
The wisdom of this step would
depend on the advantages offered
in the general charter as com
pared with the present special
one.
For the past week The State
has had a regular staff corres
pondent at the Charleston expo
sition in the person either of Mr.
Hoyt or Mr. Banks. The letters
from these two bright young
journalists who are doing some
of the best work they have ever
done are doing very much to im
press upon the people of the
State the magnitude of the expo
sition. The State (the old Pal
metto) is sure to be greatly bene
fitted by this work of the State
which we hope in time will be
benefited.
It should be a matter of great
gratitude to all South Carolin
ians that the Charleston exposi
tion has been successfully planned
upon so large a scale, and that
everywhere it is growing greatly
in popular favor, directing the
eyes of the whole country not
o'nly to the city of Charleston,
to the State of SouthI
~~a There i~~~
them to a
way foow this grati.
tude for aievement that
by attending the Exposition, anc
one of the very best times foi
attending will be March 20
South Carolina Day.
We have received two copie:
of The Educational, publishe<
by McGhee and Davis, of Co
lumbia, as successor to the Caro
lina Teachers' Journal. Mechani
callv this journal is second t<
non~e of the educational journal
of the south. Its. literary make
up reflects great credit on th
editors ani tljos- fli6se assis
...-- ..tpcdy~'v secured. The;
are sparing no pains to make th
publication a success and ever
teacher in the State should giv
them assistance, i. e., cash fc
subscription. They deserve thi
substantial support.
At this time when there is sue
a scarcity of something green
the vegetable line, we have /
acre patch of seven-top turuil
that will furnish salad for ti
next six weeks. We mention th
fact in order to illu-trate i
possibility of having somietlh
to boil at this seas *n whxen gre
vegetables are always so scarc
These turnips were sown in A
gust, and were sown fur the i
pose of raising seed. 1; t.
purpose is accom p!ishe ;, a
have more to saiy as to t*:r,n
of the experimeit au1 t0 a
the imprtanUce of plaiting Ia
valuable crop.
A few days ago we pub: i he
short article in regard to re1 t
feels for stock. To-day we pr
another aloug this sameZt l!i". \
trust these articles will excite i
farmers of the county to cot
the cost of their feed and to stu,
every plan thait is calenlated
reduce their feed bill. Inste
of feeding all corn, which is
expensive andl which does i
give such good results, why
try come of the mixed, feeds ti
-have been su~ggestea? Instead
feeding the corn y%us do feed
the ear or whole graia, why
have it ground? Instead of do
the way everybody used to
wvhy not try the methods pursi
by some m'en who are doing'
ter than you and getting b
results at less cost.
Don't limit yourself to just one
day for the Charleston Exposi
tion. The thousands who have
already tittended will tell you
that it is an impossibly to takc
it in in so short a time. You
wpuld do will to profit by theih
experience.
rA nu r-of schools through
out the ate are arranging foi
special days at the Charleston
exposition, chartering specia]
coadmles so as to reduce the
traveling expenses even lowe]
thar the already very low rates
Wg-y should not Mt. Zion dc
likewise? Certainly from a his
torical standpoint ~ there is nc
school in the State that should
be more interested in the success
of the exposition than Mt. Zion
for a large per cent of the early
members of this time-honored
society were citiz %ns of the "City
by the Sea." Yes, let us have a
Mt. Zion Day-iot only a day
(or week) for the children of Mt.
Zion with their friends and
parents to attend, but a day for
the reunion of old Mt. Zion stu
dents of a third or half a century
ago. Let it not be forgotten that
there are many over the State
who still hold the name of Mt.
Zion with that same degree o.
reverence as the old students of
Oxford, Harvard or the Soutl
Carolina their alma mater, and
many of these we feel sure would
be pleased to have an opportunity
to meet again their schoolmates
of years ago.
Sunday's State contained a
notice of a propged railroad
from Soutbprt through the mil
districts of South Carolina to th'
coal fields of Tennessee. Boston
capitalists are said to be behind
the scheme and there is every
reason to believe that they mean
business. Such a road as is
proposed has been a long-felt
need. Almost a.ll the principal
roads of the State now run north
and south. Such a road would
ive a great eastern and western
route, and would open great
strips of territory not . now
touched by any road whatever.
Entering the State through Horry
-ounty and going out through
Spartanburg and Greenville
-ounties, r airfield county would
Lie directly in its path, and
n this connection it might be
vell to recall the fact that a
~harter was once secured for a
oad touching about the same
~erritory as is now pronfl~ --
the fact of its nearness to tl
proposed route, nor to its c
charter. The business men
the county and especially
Winnsboro should awake to tl
importance of their. taking soi
action to have the road cor
this way. Lengthy words as
the developments that such
road would bring about are x
-necessary. Quick action,
business" men is the one thi
necessary. Let the busine
nen of Winnsboro have a .-mae
ing, and take -sineh necess
.eps- as will insure a proj
representation of the town's i
~ county's interests before 1
Y promoters of this enterprise.
7Every farmer in Fairfield cotu

A few daywe rode out
late in the af. to the home ]a
of that prog" farmer, Mr. ti
Samuel CatLyr., and we li
-wish here to 2i impres- ti
sions made onring a short w
stay of abou hours. We e
were first shoRbarn where s
he keeps his hos whicha
are kept, as thEuld be, in a t
house that is enough to
protect them inwinter time, if
and there they tept all the
while except 41 times as
they are let out -ater. This
is a far better than letting
them stand out e cold, ex
posed to all sort eather, for
the warmth lost tch expos
ure has to be map by addi
tional feedino-oinue on the
less side of' thence as is
usually the case. ile we did
not get to see theows at the
time they were benilked, yet
there was evidence the milk
house that they -responded
well to the kind ttent they
get. In feeding thtcows Mr.
Cathcart follows thie plan of
weighing all the fethey get,
and at this season isling them
on a mixture of <ottceed meal,
hulls, corn stover, a}ice meal
the latter being sulkuted for
wheat bran which now tot
high, being about 10 a ton
higher than the rice al whicl
serves the same pune abou
as well. The feedinroom i
just above the shed ir.hich th
cows- are kept, and iso con
structed that everythi is 4a
from above without anfuch ol
time foolishness as ha' to g
in the stall-the latteoeing
habit that it does look ;e sens
ble people who count th cost
the waste of time and fd won
discontinue.
Mr. Cathcart keeps a up-t
date .separator, and as;oon
his cows are milked, all ,r mi
is separated, the cream ling p
into vessels especially ;dapt
for this purpose, and the simm
milk is fed to hogs and ialv
A large swing churn is u%d
churiing, and so carefulYi
the cows, milk, an4 buttet h,
dledgthat Mr. Catlicart fiads
trouble whatever in selling
the butter he can make. ]
does he sell at Winnsboro ri
for he has built up a al
away from home that bri
several cents a pound m *
his butto iM-1A d
ca ves to suc e cow, bu~
1e them away at once. For
l they are fed on milk, and a
f tiful pen of a dozen or
of calves from one to eight i
Le old is a flue evidence of the
ne cessfulness of this plan.B
" calves do not get all the sk
to milk, for close by is a lar
a of shoats about five mont~
ot, weighing from 60 to 100 r
b that seem tohave haalit
g 'or something else than
ss which last mentioned articl
t- do not know.
SBesides his milch cows
> Cathcart also carries a lar;
nd of beef cattle through the s
hefinding his profit for this a
the manure he gets. This
ting into practice the d~
ity that a mLau aias not the rii
