Uo:ered at Pickens Tstoffice an Second Clabs Ma' , Matter PICKENS, S. C.: THURSDAY, MAY 20. 1909 Cateechee. By an invitation it was the writers pleasure to attend a family reunion on last Wednes day, the 12th instant, at Mr. Hoke Galloway's near Norris depot. At 9 o'clock in the morn ing the relatives and a few in vited friends of Mr. Galloway's began to gather at his residence and by 11 a. m. there w ere 58 ,present. It being Mr. Galloway's birth day (he was 55 years old that day) he decided that the most appropriate way to celebrate the occasion would be to invite all his children, his grand chil dren and a few of his friends to come and partake of the good things that he had prepared. So in accordance with his de sire all his children (12 in num ber) and all his grand children (20 in number) were present. Mrs. Galloway was 55 years old the 2nd day of last March, so there are only two months and ten days between their ages. They have 12 living children and two dead; 20 living grand clil dren and five dead. At 1O:3( a. m. all were invited in the room where Prof. J. C. Garreti entertained the crowd witi music until about 12;30 wher Mr. Galloway announced thai dinner was ready. All marched out into the yard where under A beautiful grove with all kinds of beautiful flowers and vines surrounding the same we found a table about 30 ft. long loaded from one end to the other with every thing that heart could wish for good to eat. After S. W. Howard had asked God's blessings every one present was made to feel at home and right here we wish to say that about 30 minutes of as happy time was spent as we ever witnessed. After every one present had ~fully satisfied his or her appetite there was very near enough left on the table to have fed the crowd again. Lemonade was then served after which seats were prepared under the beau tiful shade~ trees and the organ brought out. After some ex cellent music had been made by Pro. J. C. Garrett Rev. B. C. Atkinson read a chapter from the Bible and made a good talk. He spoke of the pleasure and consolation it gave us to meet and commune with our relatives and friends here upon this earth but said there was coming a re union beyond this vale of tears that was far superior to any we could have here upon this earth. Brother Atkinson made a feeling talk aiyl there was scarcely a dry eye when he closed Brother J. C. Garrett was then called on and he responded with a few well chosen remarks suitable to the occasion. Broth er Garrett spo'ke of being in Charleston at Old Soldiers re union and how he was touched with the scene when the old soldiers came marching down the street and the ladies began to throw flowers and hollow "reunion," "reunion." He said it brought the rememberances of his father back to his mind when his father fought and died for the lost cause. Brother S. W. Howard was next called on and made a feel ing talk. Bro. Atkinson then received the benediction and the crowd wvas dismissed. At 4 p. mn. each one returned to their home wishing that Bro. Gallo way and wife may live to cele brate several birth days yet and that they may celebrate then) all in the very same way they did this one. Mr. Galloway was raised in Transylvania Co., N. C.. and he, like all those North Carolina while it is not very common for two good people to get to gether Mr. and Mrs. Galloway seem to try to compete with each other in their hospitality when it comes to making a guest feel at home. Mr. Galloway has bought the B. D. Garvin place near Norris and has a nice home. He has overhauled the house and now has as nice a residence as any rural man. The Norris Sunday school pic niced ' on Six Mile Mt. on last Saturday (the 15th inst.) There was a large crowd present. Prof. J. C. Garrett and Perry. Durham made speeches and a general good time was had. The Liberty ball team played Cateechee on the latter diamond on last Saturday (15th.) The game stood 2 to 9 in favor of Cateechee. This is the second game Cateechee has played Liberty this season and Catee chee has won both games. On next Saturday (the 22nd inst) the same teams will play again at Liberty. Boys you have cer tainly got to know your busi ness when you hitch up with the Cateechee ball team for a game. The Cateechee team is very anxious to play the Pickens team. The writer had the pleasure of taking a day's drive out in the country one day last week in company with Mr. W. P. Nimmons, of Seneca. We don't think we ever saw a better stand of cotton than there is now. While that hard rain about the 1st of May baked the ground and farmers had to harrow all their cotton to get it up. They don't lack for a stand now. All cotton needs now is work and plenty of hot weather. Farmers have gone to prepar ing their land better and the re sults are visible. Mr. Duff Bolding tells us hE has 4 acres of wheat that is hard to down and we think se ourself when he can show 47~ heads of wheat all of which will average 5 in. to the stalk from one grain of wheat, who can beat it? If the rust don't strike it and no disaster comes Mr. Bol ding will exhibit this stalk of wheat at the next county fair. Mr. J. W. Williams, of Nor. ris, received a telegram last Sat. urday (the 15th inst.) that his brother, DeForest Williams had died the day before in the hos pital at Aberdeen, Washington. His brother Wade who was with him at the time of his death had his body embalmed and started home with him on the 15th. .They are expected to reach his home on the 21st or 22nd and his remains will be laid to rest at Mt. Zion cemetery beside his father the late A. B. Williams. Mrs. T. M. Norris, of Central, visited Mrs. E. N. Whitmire, of Cateechee, one day last week. Mr. T. M. Norris' father, of Orangeburg, is visiting his sons, Messrs. T. M. and G. F. Norris, of Cateechee. Miss Ida Madden, a captivat ing young lady of Pendleton, visited her cousin, Mrs. Luther Kelley of Cateechee, last week. The old bachelor sure did get stuck on her but dont let his Greenville girl know it. Miss Josie Gambrell and mother of Brushy Creek, visited at Mr. and Mrs. B. P. Kellev' s last week. The "Blossom of Pea Ridge" certainly has the advantage of the old bachelor. He don't know who she is. If he had known her he would have stopped and got a bouquet out that pretty flower yard. What is the matter with Red Rose? Dont suppose she is dead for we saw her going to the pic nic last Saturday. That general good fellow of Pickens, Mr. Walter Craig, was seen on out streets last Sunday. Come again Walter, it is like old times to see you at Catee che. Corresnondents what do you all think about an old bachelor going and bringing his best g irl to his house and letting her stay a couple of hours to see how she likes and then carrying her back home? We wont tell who it was but just ask Jim how she liked. _____ ____ B. Notice to Debtors and Creditors. All persons having cla-n a against the estate of the late M. T1.

( It Vig MIIgIM The farmers of Anderson county ar going to d.) more top dressing this yea than they have ever done. Top drea: ing or side dressing has been on the ir crease in this county for the last fes years and it has paid so well that nearl, I every progressive farmer is going to d, more or less of it this year. We hea of one man who put in very little fertil izer lest year before plentmng his crop He side dressed liberally and nmade 7 bales of cotton on 60 acre s of ground That is the kind of farmiing that p'ays Farming is a poor bu siness when you work two and three acres to make bale of cotton but it is a very profitabi business when you can make a bale o: Cot tonf or more to the acre. We havy abo~ut fLur IA-L I or:s of handsomni high grade ainoniated goods suitable for- side drcssing. It will take morn than this for the farmers of Andersor county if they use it as liberal as they will find it profiitable to) do, and then, we are selling this fertilizer in Abbe, vylle, Greenwood. Greenville, Pickens and Oconee counties. The farmers in these counties do not side dress to th4 extent that farmers in Anderson county side dress, but they are coming to it and will do more (of it than ever this year at they are finding out'that it is very profit able. Wnetn the fertilizer is put in the ground before the crop is planted or even when it ie- planted, the spring rains come along before the plant germinate and take root, and the fertilhz 'r goes down ina the ground s> fast that thle root of the plant cannot citch much of it; it has too long a lead. Wh'len 3 ou wait until the cotton comues up and is thinned to a stand and worked out and theni suIe drts s its with fi s -class high grade ammaoniated goods such as we manufacture, the roots of the plant are just suirrounded with food and nour ishiment for the plant. Every particle of te fertilizer used in the- sue dressing goes to the g owing crop: that is t he ob. ject of fertilizing, you w-.zut the giow ing ctop to get the fertdlizer. You will see the effect of this in the growing and mi the gathering. The man who side dre -ses liberally is the man who will have the brag crop; yt.u can put that down. It may be that you cannot side (ress your whole crop but you can bide dress a good part of it and that will en able you to see whether it pays or not. We are manufacturing a specially hand same goods this year for side dressing which we call "Vandiver's Side Dres ser," analyzing 8-5-6 and we recommend it to you with absolute confidence. We certainly would not put our name on is, if we did not feel that it would prove satisfactory to all who use it. It is the best grade of goods that has ever been manufactured in this country, it ana lyzes higher and we confidently believe it will give better results than anything you hava ever tried in the way of ami moniated fertiliz-ar. It is the best goods because it is made of the best material, Anderson Phosp AND Ep PLEeHE? of our us of Lnufac ror. ears a t >f men :>f our ready s now; les, i The )le and At all 1s, and C.M !d. stand readv to give of new nn )els from some of you will spot them at once as e the best acid phosphate, t blod, r tanka4ge and garbte d the m to the ton. There is a great differenc in ammoniated goods. The ammoniates are the expensive part of fertilizer. That is where fertilizers are skimped when they are skimped, but they are r not all skin.p -d. There are other fertil. Izer manufacturers who make very good .goods, but we are not advertising them at the present writing. We are adver .tising our own goods and there is notn ing better and mighty little as good. They are all right because we put the ingredients; blood, tankage. letc., in them to make thenm all right. We will have quite a lot of Nitrate of Soda on hand too, for side dressing: and just in passing, will say that we understand it pays as well to side dr< ss corn as it does any crop you grow. The corn contest this year promises to be very interesting. A great many farmers will contest for the prises. The man who winis will be a man who fertilizes heavily. The corn that wins will be corn that has been side dressed, and probably more than once. You will not stand the ghost of achance of winning any of the prises unless you fertilize heavily and side dress also. In the old blue back spelling book which we all thumbed in puisuit of that knowledge which seeme to have eled the most of us we find the doc trine laid down that "the best is the cheap.est." If that doctrine applies to spellhng books, and wye suppose it does, at least we are not going to stop to con test or discuss that question now, we are selling fertilizer now not spelling book s; if that doctrine applies to spelling books it certainly ap~plies to fertilizerB. - If a spelling book is weak in certain points and you find it out you can dis card it and get another. If your fertil lizer turns out to be weak you wtil find that out all right enough and you will discard it and get another. but the trouble is you have lost your crop and a year's work and every hand and mule on your place has lost a yeur's work be fore you find it out. The only thing s. you will carry over from that year will Ibe the year's debts. So, it witl pay you to get a goodi fertilizer at the start, one that is shown on anal sis to be all that a fertilizer sho~ild be and in this connec-. tion we call your attention to the ana lysis of our fertilizers mad e at Clemson College this year. They have all stood up on the analyris and analyze better than we guarantee them to be. We knew they would do it for we put the stuff in them to make them do it, We are willing to pin our faith to and rest our case on the fertilizers that we have manufactured this year. The analysis at Clemson College show that thav are just exactly right. Now we have got it is for sale and it terest as well as our. and try it liber ly. hate & Oil Go,, ON, S. C.
