F. Shuler, of Vance, rho bought a Poland China boar in 918. Poland Chinas were not comion in the state then but a great lany farmers are now getting a tart with this breed. Mr. Shuler paid $47.50 for his oar at eight months old, when it weighed 180 pounds. He began a eeding test at once, and when the oar was 14 months old it weighed 10 pounds, which represents a ain of 330 pounds in 6 months. In ther words, the boar gained an avrage of 55 pounds per month or .8 pounds per day. The best gain or any 30-day period was 66 pounds. The feeds used in making these ains were shorts, rice meal, corn leal, and tankage, fed in the slop orm. Corn meal or rice meal (one LANDS LLEL.. 9m Abbeville.

UIXIV part) and shorts (three parts) were mixed as slops, and to this was added tankage (one pat.) Mr. Shuler was so pleased with his success with the boar that he has become interested in breeding1 and now has 25 brood sows. He is also making a start in beef cattle and has a small foundation herd. Recently Mr. Shuler was offered $500 for the boar for which he had paid $47.50 and promptly refused the offer. "I wouldn't take $1,00(V fo him," said Mr. Shuler, "because he has just the blood lines I want and I'm in the game to stay. He has already made money for me and if it had not been for my hog sales I couldn't have held cotton this year." MISSIONARY UNION MEETING IS HELD The Woman's Missionary Union of Abbeville Association held its annua! meeting with the Midway Baptist church July 9, 10, and 11. A large number of delegates were present. Some outstanding features of the program were the address on "Christian Education" by Dr. Louis J. Bristow of Abbeville, talks by Mrs. J. R. Fizer of Columbia, message of the superintendent, Mrs. D. A. {J. Ouzts, messages of the associate superintendents, Mrs, M. C. Milling, Miss Ruth Pinson, and Mrs. J. W. Culbertson, and the special Y. W. A., R. A., and Sunbeam programs. Every section o? the program was full of inspiration and uplift. A memorial service1 for the boys who have lost their lives in the camps, or in France, was held by Mrs. M. C. Milling. The names of the dead from the Baptist churches in this association were read. The entire body of delegates stood at attention while Miss Ruth Pinson, and Mrs. J. Spann Harris sang, "Lest We Forgt" There were- twenty-one Honor Roll societies this year. The association as a whole has exceeded its. apportionment. Credit is due the officers, and the leader* who have worked so faithfully to bring this to pass. We should fed thankful indeed that three girls- from our association are planning to attend the Training School this fall. Miss Katherine Harris, of Troy, is the re cipient 01 tne scnoiarsmp irom tne' Welsh Neck association. Miss Harris is a gaduate of Greenville Woman's College. iShe is a charming young lady, and has endeared herself to the whole association. Miss Clifford Barrett of Breezewood, was awarded the Western EH vision scholarship. She is a graduate of Winthrop College. For several years she has served as county demonstrator for Barnwell county. Her friends througout the State rejoice over this signal honor which has been paid her. Miss Birch Clinkscales, of Abbeville, expects to enter the Training School also. She is a graduate of Winthrop College. She has served as pastor's assistant in qiiu cugogtu in vuier ui 18* | sion work already. Her friends are glad indeed, that she-has dedicated | her life to missions. We are confident that the labors of these young ladies shall not be in vain. They go forth upheld by the approval, and pray?r? of the entire association. We should be churlish indeed, if we did not give a rising vote of thanks to .the men and women of Midway church, who entertained us so royally. We shall never forget the warm welcome, th* bountiful dinners, the auto rides, and all the other good things we enjoyed While at Midway. We are hoping that Midwav will send a larce Hp.letrjit.inTi to Greenwood First Church next July in order that we may repay in some measure the boundless hospitality extended to us.?Index-Journal.
