FRANK FOOSHE, .. - - EDITOR TERMS5, IN ADvASCE : One Year,.......................$1.50 Six Months....................... .75 WINNS3ORO, S. C. Wednesday, June 21, 1905. The sowing of peas should be the order of farm work as soon as it rains. The pea crop is an invaluable one to every farmer' who would raise his own sup plies and improve his land. As announced last week we begin this week the republishiug of the articles on the Mt. Zion Society, published in The News and Herald in 1867. These arti cles contain much very valuable history and their republication at this time, when steps ha. e been taken for the enlargement of the Mt. Zion Institute, is exceedingly timely. Two years ago, when the proposition of voting for electric lights was up, there were many who opposed that bond issue on the ground that they preferred water works. Now that the electric lights have been proven so decidedly more advantageous than the old system of lightingi the town, and that too at but a: slight additional cost, the pro position of voting bonds for; water works should be taken up. There is no public improvement that counts for more in affording those conveniences that will contribute to inducing people to come to a town than water works. Winnsboro's bonded indebted ness is not so great as to pre clude her putting in this great improvement. There now seems to be no dout that the great Catawba Falls are soon to be developed. We are assured that the information in the article republished from the Charlotte Observer in this issue is authoritative. The develop ment of these falls, which are the finest water power in the whole South, will mean great things for Fairfield county and for W inns-: boro. However, it must be borne in mind that if Winnsboro is to; get her share of the advantages that should come from the do velopment of this great water power, she will have to take or- i ganized steps to that end. Cer- g tain it is that she cannot expect a to get her share without doing v he full part. FOR IEN.

Judged by that standard Winnsboro is in a healthy business condition, for the amount of advertising on the part of the home merchants carried in the News and Herald for the past three months has been larger than for any pervious three months under the present management. We greatly ap preciate this increased adivertis ing patronage, and we can assure our home merchants that we will spare no pains to make their advertisemnents b)ring them the large?t possible returns. With all the merchants advertising there are greater possibilities in store for this community. It not only help~s the local paper for the hom.e muerchats to advertise freely, but it helps the whole community,' for the more invitations that are extended for trade, the larger. the trade will surely be. It pays to advertise. After a delay of several days the board of control of Pickens county has at last closed the dis peusary at Pickens in accordance w'ithi instructions from Governor Heyward without waiting further ord.3rs from the State board of control. Newberry, Anderson, Edgefield and other counties are pblaning to take a vote on the discen.sary.

James, for in the dea tof him western Fairfield hashk one of her old landmarks, a: the "Lost Cause" one of her b4 soldiers. He was a son of ChU ner James who came here frc SVirginia and settled near Stroth< where the subject of this sket was reared and lived at the tir of his death. Mr. James w about sixty-six years old, havii 1lived at the old homestead all I life. He enlisted for the Co federate cause in the Buckhe: Guards, Company H, where remained until the close of t] bitter struggle. He was a mer ber of Rock Creek Baptist churc and was always pronounced ai consistent in his church relation Those left to mourn his lo: are: Mrs. Fannie James (his wif and seven children-Mrs. Virgin Campbell of Chappell,S. C.,Missi Ella and Sudie James and Messr David, :Nicholas, Edward at Paul James. The sympathy the entire community goes out1 these in their bereavement. Friend. JAMES LONG. Died, at ihe residence of h: parents, Wmn. H. and Francesi Long: James William, in tb second year of his age. Again has the death angi visited our community, takin from fond parents and grani parents an idolized little one. James William Long was bor July 14th, 1903, and died Ma 21st, 1905. Little James did nc live quite two years, yet how des oLate the hearts of his parent He was a perfect specimen o attractive babyhood, just at th age to be winning. How all wi] miss his little footsteps, bi charming voice! Nature mus pay her tribute, but "It is we] with the child." Let us not question the inscru table ways of Him who gives anm takes. "The Lord giveth, ani the Lord taketh away; blesse( be the name of the Lord." W4 know not from what exil littl< James was taken.
