Carolina into intimate association , with many more commonplace communities. Although Abbeville has ? about one-seventh the population of g some of its progressive neighbors it j >v is much richer than they are in* his- t toric associations. In a little while ^ another improved road connecting a Greenwood with Abbeville will be completed, after which an Abbeville- t Greenwood Country club, modeled x on the Laurens-Clinton Club, presumably will be established.?The <If# State. 1 I Rfe * WINTER WAR ON PESTS. s ' h Clemson, College, Nov. 18?Our insect pest9 for any growing s&ason h come from those that successfully passed th? preceding winter. For s these pests to maintain themselves Ji on the farm, in the orchard, certain s conditions ar? necessary says Prof, d A. F. Conradi, Entomologist, and those conditions should not exist. p The old cotton stalks and corn n stalks, as well as unkept ditch I ^ar>L-c r brracps. fence. TOWS. etc., furnish shelter for the toll weevil C and other mauraudinng insects of I gjf ' farm crops. By tolerating an unkept orchard p and undernourished trees we invite* t San Jose scale, plum curcullo, apple* worm, shut hole Jborer, and other a pesrts to stay with us in our orchards e over winter and enjoy our hospital- I ity. Allowing the refuse of garden crops to remain in the garden undis t turbed is to provide comfortable fc winter homes for insfect enemies of t ! the garden. 1 This is an opportunity to do away ii with the old-fashioned privy, the h most repulsive and (most dangerous n producer of flios anywhere. And we o nave time now to arrange iw ? mtrvter system of taking care* of manure g instead of leaving it in open-stalls o and under the open sun to rear fliee ii by billions ?next spring. A. Now is a good time to care for a rain barrels, cisterns, tin can,s wa- a ter soles and other places that breed n the mosquitoes that make life un- a comfortable on the porch anl in the 1 house next spring. " j< Winter is not the idle season as b some may think, but it is the most J important season to prepare for the next year's crop and comforts. C PLOWING UP THE STALKS * tl Union Times. n ?^OTln A lie UCfWdbivy vi yivwuig unuvA cotton stalks is beang urged by a Clemson College. Th?re will be no fexcuse for neglecting this very important work this year. The cotton IV has already been gathered in most fielda It has been clearly demonstrated that stalk destruction, when S applied early. i$ on? of the surest ways to combat the boll weevil. That togather with poisoning and picking squares, is about the whole show in the fight. High fertilization and early planting of an early variety, is the whole story to date When the plowing under of stalks is done?, it should be done with a ? disc harrow. The early plowing un- cl der while the stalks are green, kills '2 most of the next yaar's crop of w v weevils.

Follow- gjng the example of other circuit ' judges who gave no alternative sen- ^ j tences, Judge Greene is sentencing j violators of the prohibition law-from j?hree to six months straight time on ^ | the chain gang. So far, he has failed ^ to impose a money fine or suspend a ^ ipart of sentence for trafficking in liquor, n y Since the judges in this state have ? about settled upon some definite ie ( ^plan of dealing with violators of the ^ prohibition law, making chain gang . [punishment a certainty for those I who plead guilty or are convicted, J the respect for law has climbed a . | notch or two . higher. Although the j a Judges of the. state are not reported as having agreed at an en banc ses- ' js.ion to assert a sterner attitude nn r? I "*.. ' i" t I dealing with transgressors of the li^ | quor laws, circuit and special -judges ; , ; are exercising their individual judg- ' ment and its trend has been steadily n toward workhouse sentences for all 1 j persons dealing in much liquor, or ^ [ in any way connected with the traffic. 5'l Judge Mendel L. Smith did a vast ' amount of good in this county by ? ^posing straight chain gang sentences on bootleggers. Judge Townn send set precedent here by his y attitude in whiskey cases, and Judge Greene, who could easily make or Mbreak the good work done hereto- I fore ,has cinched the enforcement V of the prohibition law in Anderson 3 county by virtually making it a safe bet that every violator will be dealt 5* with firmly. : < B Judge Greene is to be ,congratu- < lated in continuing the good work , already begun. t EPWORTH LEAGUE POSTPONED. ; h ' / ' r The meeting of the Epworth Lea- [ gue social which was to hive been ( held tonight at the-residence of Mrs r 'Harry Wilson has been indefinitely postponed.
