Opening Dnys.
Last Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, the
millinery stores put tnelr splendid Wiuter
stocks on exhibition, ana nearly all the ladies
in town were on our streets or assembled at
their counters. It wo*uld be Impossible for
this editor to describe the beauty and splendor
01 the scenes within their doors. We can
only weep because we have no one for whom
we can buy a bonnet. Husbands and fathers
who desire to buy the best women in the
world the prettiest bonnets in the world are
now ofl'ered the best opportunity in the
world.
The fame and beauty and cheapness of the
Abbeville millinery has gone abroad, aud orders
f?r "a love of a bonnet," come from
every section, alike from the rich and the
nr. While it is true that the prettiest thing
(onnets this year is a pretty face, it is also
true that the prettiest bonnets can be had
at Abbeville, and everybody knows that a
pretty bonnet make6 a pretty woman simply
divine. Let husbands and fathers then honor
themselves by adorning the loved ones with
* the suitable bonnets which may be had at
Abbeville.
Death or Thomas Irwin.
Mr. Thomas Irwin was burled at Lebanon
tn thiB county last Monday, 28th of September,
1891.
He was born in Iretand and came to this
country'41 or'42. Most of his life was spent
in Abbeville county, and those who knew
him olll romcinhAr him rr an honorable, in
dustrlous and useful man.
His home has been in Charleston since the
war, and he died in that city on 23rd Inst, at
the advanced age of seventy years.
Truly "a long life was given unto him," and
he ever lived tne life of a true Christian In
connection with the Westminster Presbyterian
churoh, and he died the death of the
righteous with the blessed hope ot a glorious
immortality.
Mr. Irwin was the father of Mr. A. M. Irwin,
of Antrevllle, in this county.
We extend him our sympathy, and feel
sure that like sympathy from the hearts of
many friends goes out to him and the entire
family in this day of bereavement.

Back Home.
Mr. W. O. Smith,of Callaham, Florida, was
in town for a day or two last week. He is an
able man who is doing well in his adopted
home.
His good looks and general appearance
would testify to his thrilt and success.
To Be Closed.
The store of Messrs. P. Rosenberg & Co.,
will be closed on next Saturday, October 3,
and on Monday, October 12, on account of religious
holidays.
The opening last week at Haddon's proved
a success, not only in the fact of there being
crowds of beautiful ladleB that thronged the
store, but in the grand and magnificent die
play of beautiful bats, trimmed in the very
lo'Mt atvla Their mllllnprv mnniR are
crowded with lovely bats, and trimmings of
every description. It would be a great saving
of money, and certainly a pleasant visit,
when anything In tbeir line is needed. In
tbe front part of theirstore were a number of
figures over wbich were draped Bome of tbe
loveliest abades and textures In dress goods
of tbe season. No lady wishing the latest
productions in millinery dress goods, &c.,
could do better than call at the emporium ol
fashion.
Mr John Evans was in town last Saturday.
He informs us that Bradley's mill, on
Long Cane, has been re-built for grinding
corn, and that the machinery is iu first class
fix. Hon.J.E. Bradley Is tbe owner. Mr.
John Evans is an experienced miller, and bis
experience and capacity for that kind of
work Insures satisfaction to tbe public.
Dr. A. B. C. Lindsay was in our office last
Saturday. He thinks tbe cotton crop in bis
section will not be us good as it was hoped at
one time it would be. From him we also
learned of tbe death of Mr. J. W. Child, the
father of Mrs. Minnie Wilson. He was a
Knight of Honor. He moved from Abbeville
county many years ago.

Cotton Will Hereafter Be Ginned
and Packed in the Markets where
Knlil.
The cotton gins and tho oil mill were very
busy the latter part of last week.
The good work of ourgius is having its effect
on the cotton-ginning business, and each
succeeding year they do more work than during
the preceding season.
The fitrmer8 are beginning to realize the
saving in time and money incident to carrying
their cotton toa centre where an ample
supply of machinery and all the appliances
for prompt work are always to be found, and
where ready sales can be made.
Many farmers load their cotton In the field
and bring it to the gin Immediately, without
ever taking it from the wagon. This saves
the handling, waste and loss of time incident
to needlessly throwing of it off and on the
wagon, and otherwise prevents loss in
weight.
Everybody has now about become convinced
that it Is to their advantage to sell
both the seed and the lint fresh from the
field.
As there is no delay in getting any amount
of cotton ginned any day In the week at Abbeville,
cotton is coming a distance from
eight to eleven miles from the country.
The roads being good now it Is greatly to
the advantage of those living at a distance to
bring their seed to market before the wet
weather sets in. And those who owe debts
In town strengthen their credit by prompt
payments, while those who have money to
spend have the largest and choicest stocks of
the best ana most lasnioDaoie gooue iruiu
which to select.
j A two-horse wagon is fully looded with a
bale of cotton In the seed, aud so nothing at
all is lost by bringing the seed and the lint together.
The ginneries buy all the seed that Is ottered,
and up to this time but very little seed
has been returned to the country, and as it
has been demonstrated beyond question that
cotton s?>ed hulls and meal make better leed
for cuttle thau the raw seed, less seed will be
fed this year than ever befoi e. ;
The oil mill haa been running only about
twelve hours a day, but arrangements are being
made to run the mill day and night.
Seed is accumulating on their hands to such <
an extent that if no more were received three
weeks time would be required in which to
grind It up.
From the present outlook, the Superln- ,
tendent, Mr. Ferguson, thinks that three
hundred thousand tons will be ground this
season at the Abbeville oil mill, and It is
thought that four thousand bales will be 1
ginned in town this season, being and In
crease over last year of about one thousand
bales, and from present Indications It will
not be many years before all the cotton In
the country wlu be ginned and packed In the |
market where it Is sold. The delay and labor
of hanllng the seed ootton to other places
than the market involves considerable loss
to the planter, and the probability is, that all
will sooner or later adopt the improved and i
cheaper methods. 1
For the last few days the glnnerv has been
running In the day time and the oil mill in
the night time. This was necessitated be
cause 01 scarcity ui water, oat taut uiuicuitjr
will be remedied In a day or two,| when the
ginnery will run during the day, and the fire
in the furnace will not be allowed to die out
between Monday morning and Saturday
noon.
Ab there are bnyers of seed at every town
where there are ginneries and buyers of cot- i
ton. the cotton as It oomes from the held will
naturally gravitate to those points and every 1
railroad depot, which is located In a cotton
centre, will have its ginnery, and planters I
will patronize those ginneries which are in i
tbe markets where they propose to sell their |
seed and lint.
Wben cotton is loaded on wagons it makes
very little difference in cost, whether a man
takes It three miles or ten, but tbe advan- I
tage of quick work and prompt Bales, Is
greatly preferred to disappointments, short i
hauls and frequent reloading. j
The fact is, If a man is going to sell both
the seed and tbe lint, be wastes bis time and
labor if be does not take it dire?tly to tbe j
market, and be done wltb it at once. Wbat'6
the use oi hauling it about over tbe country,
and loading and reloading it several times before
taking it to market?
It makes no dlfierence bow far a man may j
live from market, he is wasting his time to
gin and pack it before be brings it to any |
market wbere there is a ginnery.
At present the gins at Abbeville can gin in 1
any day all the cotton tbat may come to
town lor tbat day, but In tbe natural order of
things tbe demands upon them will be Increased
and as a consequence tbe capacity of ,
tbe gins must be increased. Those firms who
are In the butsluess must make their arrangements
to tbat effect before tbe beginning of
another season, or else other ginneries mnst
be set up.
f.paa than tf>n vpurfi nm w? harf nn pin at
all at Abbeville. Then one gin was 6et up,
another was added, and later a third gin was
added. After that Henry's ginnery was set .
up, with one or two gins. Then the oil mill
bought oat the McMillan and the Henry ginneries.
and set up a big concern of their own. ,
The ginnery of R. C. Wilson <fe Co., was set
up, with a capacity of twenty or thirty b&leB I
a day, and now six Immense gins at the oil
mill, three splendid gins at the MoMlllan i
gin, and two first rate gins at R. C. Wilson 1
& Go's, are kept mare busy than was the single
gin the first year that It was run. when It {
ginned perhaps one twelfth of tne cotton
which was sold in this market. From 700 or
800 bales the work has Increased every year, |
until now It is thought that the amount of 1
cotton in the seed which will be brought to
this market will be about four thouBuna bales, *
or from thirty to forty per oent. of all the
cotton that will be sold at this place.
The advantage or saving In taking cotton to ,
market aB it comes from the field is so great
that In the course of two or three years nearly
the whole crop will be marketed in this '
way.
As soon as other farmers find out the
great advantage of the new methods they
will also adopt the better plan, and bring
their crops to market directly from the fields,
and the ginneries at Abbeville, Donalds,
Greenwood, Ninety-Six, and other central .
points on the railroads might Just as well
recognize at once the ?act that a great change
Is taking place, and that they should make
the necessary enlargements of their machinery
to gin nine tenths of the cotton that will
be sold In their respective markets. The demand
upon them will be made. The people
are Blow to break up old customs, but they
are sure to bring their cotton from the fields
directly to the market in which they intend
to sell.
Whatever other places may do, it 1b to be
hoped that the ginneries at Abbeville may
largely Increase their capacity before the beginning
of another season. We will gin next
year not less than six thousand bales?provided
we have the capacity.
