NEWS AND HERALD PURLISHED WEEELY, ] -BY- 1 WINNSBORO PRINTING Co. J. IFRA.NK FOOSHE, . - - EDITOR TERMS, IN ADVANCE: One Year,..................---5 bix Months ..................7 WINNSBORO, S. C. Wednesday, July 26, 1905. Editorial Notes. Were you ever caught away from home with a sick horse? if so, then you know somewhat how to sympathize with us in our ex perience along this line last week. Thursday morning we started for Crosbyville, driving as far as lir. M. B. Martin's before dinner. That afternoon we drove the rest of the distance, and on account of the intense heat ogr horse be came overheated, though it show ed no signs of it till the next morning, when we were informed by our host, Mr. J. D. Boulware, that it had eaten nothing during the night arf would neither eat nor drink. As it.seemed to suf fer no pain, it was very clear that itjwas an instance of prostration from excessive heat. About noon it showed signs of improvement and then eat a little -late that afternoon. Af ter several hours of patient waiting, we started slowly on our homeward journey, our horse being cared for that night by Mr. H. D. Coleman, whose baby has been and was still very sick. We spent the night at the home of Mr. C. W. Fawcett, whose home is all hospitality. The next morning we started early for home, driving as far as Mr M. B. Martin's, whose kind hearted hospitality we again en joyed till late in the afternoon, when we completed our trip, grateful indeed, that the h->rse after careful attention and slow driving, was practically recover ed. This experience of ours brought its pleasures as well as its dis appointments. It gave us the opportunity of attanding a second service at Cool Branch church, which is one of the historical churches of the county and which is still a strong church. It was a pleasure indeed to meet with the people of this section in this way, for the country church is a great social institution as well as a religious onie. It is -here that >-. the people meet and become the 12tt a latmttla each other. There is no hurrying off after preaching; and especially is this true during there special services. Rev. W. T. Tate of Belton was the preacher. He preaches a plain, simple gospel with an earnestness that carries power with it. The pastor, Rev. E. D. Wells, seem to be in high favor with his congregagtion. As an evidence that the Boulware's form a large part of this community, the six delegates appointed to the next meeting of the Chester Baptist Association all bear this name. 7. Another pleasure that was ours on this trip was the great kind ness of many friends, who seemed anxious to do anything to make it pleasant for us. Especially was this true of our hosts, who left nothing undone for our comn fort. However, there camne the suggestion that so few people in the country know in the slightest measure what to do for a horse, when it is sick. This is such a pity, for a large number of good animals die every year simply be cause there is no e ne who can give any assistance. In this con nection we desire to call atten tion to a book sent out by the government entitled, "The Dis eases of the Horse." With such a valuable treatise in every home many animals could be saved that would otherwise die. Every farmer should write for it. At the homes of Mr. Boul ware and Mr. Martin are situated the Crosbyville and the Luke switch boards for the local telephone systems. The keeping of these rural centrals seems to us to be the fullest test of human patience. The -lines are ever being used. There are calls for this and for that, and by those who can talk over a phone and those who can not. Gossip and business strange ly mingle. The "Hello, Central." could tell some secrets indeed. But with all the imperfections of the system on account of the lines not being kept in the proper order, the phone is working great 'revolutions in these country homes. The people are keeping Win touch with each other better U than ever before. They are prov ing of educational value and that too at very reasonable cost. The r telephones, together with the free t rural routes, which bring in many'1 instances now the daily paper, i are putting the farmer in touch with the outside world. We de sire to say for the keepers of each si >f these centrals and also the ,Ue at Welling, kept by Miss Ida )ye, that they are uniformly kind LUd courteous, and that they do Li in their power to facilitate tha )usiness of their respective lines. Just a word in regard to the rops. The rains have been very )artial this season. The most avored section is the territory )etween Winnsboro and Little River, where the seasons have been ery uniform and where the crops ire in fine condition, this apply ing to both cotton and corn. The alem section has had too mueb ain for many weeks past and the :rops have suffered from the same. The crops in the Crosbyville sec tion have suffered from being too dry, and were the poorest we saw on this trip, with the excep tion of the branch bottom corn, which was fine. The crops in he Hop section are about an average with the exception of the cotton of Mr. John Stone, which is the earliest we have seen any where and which promises a very fine yield, as it already has much rown fruit on it. His corn is also reported to be very fine. All in all the crops were more favor able than ve expected to find them; and the people for the most part are very hopeful about crop conditions. The gardens in many instances are now fine cow pastures, though by a little extra work they could soon be converted into fine fall gardens by the planting of beans, turnips, etc. This neglect to have winter gardens is a great defect of most country homes. The peach crop has been very good, and we had some as fine peaches on this trip as can be raised anywhere. The farmers are doing more and more to have a plenty of fruit about their homes. This is a step in tne direction of more enjoyment for themselves and their neighbors and also of better health condi tion. One never sees anything in the way of horseflesh prettier than a five year old Shetland stallion that Mr. H. D. Coleman has at his home. It is the smallest we ever saw, weighing less than 200 pounds and measuring only 34 inches high. It has to be seen to appreciate how small it is and also how stylish and pretty. Mr. Coleman is making an experiment of raising Shetland ponies. He has fifteen brood mares, and now has four colts. It is certainly a unique sight for this section to see them all together grazing, in the pasture. His experiment along this line will be watched with interest. His neighbors, Dr. J. R. and Mr. W. Y. Cole man, are still raising fine colts. Their 6xample is full worthy of imitation by other tarigers. The representatives if the different commercial organietion in South Carolina are to ieen Columbia, August 17, for t e urpose of considering ways an ieans for furthering the indus~ trial development of South Caro lina. If Winnsboro is to be re presented, and she certainly ought, the buseiness men of the town will have to get a move on them and organize. County Expenses. Supervisor Burley makes the following synopsis of his report for the second quarter of 1905, which shows fully what the ex penses of the county are for the poor house andi chaingang: Wags for su pt. for .' nontha ....$ 75 00 Waes. for 8 guariis :R ninth<...174 0( ~ril 25-Corn and hay for muleks .......... ............. .:.....1 7 07 Sup~plieI" for.. -........ ....... 254 5C 'on veym pr o . -rs ..
