C., December 26.? j|;The holidays are on at Furman Uni3] versity. The boys have left foi jl home. The usual animated life and @noise about the Camous has ceased. I The dormitories are dark, cold, anc closed. The boys^are with fathei and mother, brother and sister, yes and sweetheart, too. ?j It has been a fine session at Fur [fj man. 287 men have been matricu ^ilated, which is 51 more than wer< I I ever enrolled in an entire session be fore. They have been a fine, sturdy | lot of boys, coming from all part :of the state, and from other states iOne hian came from China, thougl he is not a Chinese. The boys hav< jbeen a steady lot, full of good, har jwork in their classrooms. At th same time, there has been an in | tense interest in athletics of variou kinds. The football season has bee particularly successful. Furman' team played nine games, winning si of them by defeating Wofford, o Spartanburg; Presbyterian College of Clinton; Wake Forest, of Nort Carolina; Oglethorpe,'of Georgia Citadel, of Charleston*; and Erskint of Due West. They played Clemso ^ to a standstill with a score of 7 to ' g in one of the greatest games eve Ij'seen in the state. They were defeal ilj ed by Georgia Tech, and by Davie ij'son, of North Carolina. It was jfl fine record and the material for |j Varsity team next year is very pr <n [| ising. "Speedy Speer", star playa S of the club, will be back, and severs i| others of the leading men on ill s team. a The literary societies have bee a having fine work. The Adelphian Sc [a ciety recently held its 69th ope s session in the chapel of the Univei g sity. A large body of friends of th g young men and of the Universit [a were on hand to cheer the boys on i a their literary endeavors. The pre a gram was an admirable one.

That question no doubt, was asked many thousands of 1 years ago and has been repeated from time to time ever since, but it 1 has never been completely answered. " The answer, however, is being written bit by bit. The chemical and |mineralogical nature of the materials -i extracted from soils by treatment i - i with water has been under investga2;tion by the Bureau of Soils, U. S. -.Department of Agriculture, for some VI past. A number of minerals have s! been identified in these products i. >and it has been shown that the "?^ ^ 1.1 i -'/A vhS ? j ship tl^^undie " The Highest Prii n That's What You'll C WE WANT 'EM NOW?AND Wfl e N9IEXTRA LARGE | N?l LARGE / CKTPA TO AVCffAGC [ CXTPA TQ AVCRAGt RAC( e EE 118.00 to 14.00112.00 to 10.CK e Heavy Furred 12.00 to 10.00 9.00 to 8.0( it Ordinary 9.00to 8.00 7.00to d.0( ? ! ! * . e iFine, Dark 22.00 to 18.00 16.00 to 13.0C ,f Usual Color 15.00to 12.00 11.00 to 9.0C [Pale 11.00 to 9.001 8.00 to 7.0C ,h MUSI Winter 6.00 to 5.00 4.75 to'3.75 e [Fall 4.50 to 3.751 3.50 to 175 >- These extremely high prices for { the well-known "SHUBERT" libera diate shipment No. 3, No. 4 and market value.
