The following is taken from the
Keystone, in a description of Miss
Poppeuheim's visit throughout the
State in February: "Y mr President
visited Edgefleld at the invitation ol'
the Auf Wiedersehen club, where the
pleasant social intercourse with its
members as well a? their enthusi. sm
. in the State work, resulted in a close
bond between your President and this

the New Century Club, fifteen mem
bers; Trenton where she organized a
literary club of twenty-five members.

Dr. Tompkins nays that be has
never seen JO many caeos of grip
before in Edgefield that scarcely
a household has escaped it, aud
that it is without doubt contagious.

Rev. Luther Wbiie, Milton Jjnes.
On his return trip from the
Young Men's Christie association
of Kentuckey, Col., James Bacon,
writing from At) an tn to The State,
has the following to say of two
Edgefield.ans in Atlanta.
The present mayor of the great
city of Atlanta ?6 Livingston M i ms,
who*ras boru three miles east of
the old town of Edgefield in tho
c'osingye*rs of tne first third of
the last century. Hisgrandft.ther,
a revolutionary patrol, was one ot
tbe charter settlers of Edg> field.
His father was the first ordinary
or judge of probate of Edgefield
couutyupon itsorganization atcer
the revolutionary war. He-or
h,s widow-removed from Edge
field to, we think. Columbus, Ga.
Their home in Edgefield, now own
ed by Mrs. Kale DeVore, and the
ute of a grist mill, ia still knowe
as /'the old Livingcton Mints
pia.e. If we mistake not Mayor
kims bas lived in Atlanta pretty
much throughout all its years-it
leading social, political, and bus
iness factor a man whose influences
have steadily permeated the whole
city. He is a stately, elegant
gentleman-this Edgefield boy-a
gracelul and gratelul cuinbiuaiion
of Sir Galahad and Sir Lancelot.
He is strong of mind and strong
of body, well read and profoundly
cultured, broad, generous, genial.
And.be is what Rudyard Kipling
calls "a gentleman unafrai.i."
Atlanta's telephone "500," the
queen reguaut of th? telephone ex
change, is out lovely and beloved
little neighbor Marguerite Fraser
Edgefield's "airy, fairy Lillian,"
Edgefield's precious lamb. How
strange are the providences.of
God 1 How wonderful his awards
and rewards i Noble, beautiful
Marguerite Fraser, born in the
purple aud of purple blood, daugh
ter of hieb and stern duty-as
Atlanta's "500." Atlanta may see
the perfect outward beauty of
Marguerite Fraser. Her mon
perfect" inward beauty Atlanta
may never know. A ti au ti? would
do well to know it.

COTTON GROWERS
WILL GET TO WOEK.
Interstate Protective Association
Just Formed.
The cotton growers of the
southern Slates are trying to get
down to a basis of organization
this year, and they hope to accom
plish somethi"g that will have
effect in the marketing of the
1901 crop.
Mr. J. C. Wilborn, the president]
of the State Cotton Growers' as
sociation, who has been for a long j
time at the nead of the Natiouai
State Farmery's Alliance organiz
tious, says that active steps are
already being taken, and he is
satisfied that a great deal will be
accomplished. Kn has just re
turned from Atlanta, where be
weut to attend the meeting of the,
executive committee of the general
Oo'.toi Grower's association, the
iirst gathering on the line indicat
ed ytt to be held. The Hon.
Hoke Smith is chairman of this
committee and it is composed of
* *:-?. iir>cr?i frn'ii I
.Jrosson of Leesville.
At the meeting it was decided
r.;i torm at on"9 au Inter S'?t<
Cottou Growers Proteclive ns30cia*
UDU and to establish ti bureau ol
information, keeping up through
.eporte with the exaci acerase, the
crop conditions and the number
of prospective bales in each State.
The headquarters of the associa
?ou's bureau with for the present
be at Monticello, Ga. The organ
cation of tte association was
iffected by the election of Hon.
J. Harvey Jordan of Monticello,
Ga., as president; Col. R. A. Love
of this State as vice president and
J. B. Allison of North Carolina as
secretary.
The cotton growers in all the
States interested have been urged
to organize upon a general plan to
be promulgated covering every!
county in the cotton region, and
make direct reports to tho associa
tic a bureau.
Mr. Wilborn says that all along]
the line one of the largest crops]
*vcr known is expected this year,)
and that cotton growers will fail
in their duty to themselves and
their familes if they do not seek
the ouly protection they can get
that resulting from organization.
A sub-committee was appointed
to confer with the Southern Press
assocition.
Mr. Wilborn, as president of the
South Carolina Cotton Growers'
issociation, wishes it announce i
rhat he stands ready at any time
tvheu called upon to any point iu
the State and assist in the organiza

TREE PLANTING INCITIES.
It Adds to thc Comfort and
Health of Resideuts.
8ir: A recent editorial which I
understand appeared in The
American Architect," of Boston
?ives credit the effota of to the free
Planting Association iu New York
City and draws attention to tba
annual increaso in the rumbei of
trees that have been pl au ted since
the association was organized,
but it espressos the wish 'thatFom?
statistics could be tr^ken to illus
trate the effectof the tree planting
in cities as closely built as New
Vork City upon the health of tbe
people affected," and he goes on to
slate that 4,as a matter nf fact tip
streets which now possess.such
trees are iu many ca>r* gloomy
through the shading nf the lower
windows of the houses and ill
smelling through the influence of
the trees in checking the circula
iion of air over the toad .rays and
gutters."
Any discussion that relates to
the health, comfort and pleasure
of the vast communities congregat
ed iu cities is most interesting,
and ?hould command wide attend
tion. The inquiries made by the
writer of the article in question
are easily answered by the almost
universal testimony of members
of the medical profession that the
effect of trees is Btrictly beneficial
to health ; but as the inquirer ask*
for statistics, I would refur him
and all other inquirers to an
exhaustive article on this subject,
written by Dr. Stepher Smith and
first printed in Appleton's Populad
Scienca Mouthy" for February
1899, entitled "Vegetation a Reraey
dy for Summer Heat of Cities,'!
a plea for the cultivation of tree?,*
shrubs, plants, vines and grasses
on the streets of New York for tbej
improvement of the public health,!
for the comfort of summer residents
and for ornamentation.
Dr. Stephen Smith is an eraiaeutj
authority on the subject. Tliej
limits of this article will not)
admit of giving the statistics thai
be published, but he shows cool
clubively that the mortality of l_W
city is greases: during i he Heated

Again, the shade of trees piotectf

sun and prevents solar radiatioi.
from the earth. Tbis is of immense
impor tance in cities where tin
pived streets become excessivolv
h 'ated, and radiation creates one
of the most daugerons source
of beat. Whoever has walked the
streets of New York on a hot sum
mer's day, protected from thy
direct raye of a midday sun bj
his umbrella, has found the reflect
ed heat of the pavement intoler
able." If for a moment he passed
into the dense shade of a tree he
at once experienced a marked senee
of relief. This relief is not due so
much to the shade as to the cooling
effect of the vaporization from the
leaves of the tree.
In tho January number of "Park
and Cemetery and Landscape
Gardening," page 252, confirmatory
evidence is furnished in a some
what scientific article on street
trees, a few extracts from which
are furnished below :
Trees have a sanitary effect upon
oities. Thoy purify the atmospr.|
here. They act as a refrigerant.
The refrigerating power of grow
ing treen tends to increase with the
rising atmospheric tomperalure.
During all seasons trees maintain
a mean temperature of 54 degrees
Fahrenheit. Excessive and prolong
ed heat cause Revitalization, sick
ness and death. From the above it
is evident that tre^s have a whole
some influence upon the reside.i's
of cities by purifying and cooling
the atmosphere and afforlinel
the atmosph?re nud afford in-'
shade.

ledge on the part of the author
namely, that clause io which he
srajes that as a matter of fact "the
streets which DOW possess such
trees are in many instances gloom}'
through th* sbaling of the lower
windows of thc bousds and ill
smelling'through the influnioe of
the trees in checking the circula
tion ' i' air over the roadways and
gutters." Tn is association has
published many photographs of
streets that are the best supplied
with trees, but if. lins yet to learn
of any houses thutsre unpleasantly
shaded, and there is certainly
not ono street that is iii smelling,
unless from some other cause.
Unfortunately tho older trees have,
asa rule, been cut down, whi!"
those recently planted cauuot as
yet furnish shado- that is so much
needed hi our streets.
Instead of checking the circula.
Sion of air they aid it. Every
characteristic of thc properly
selected tree fav?rs the comfort
and heaith of the citizen, aud as
free? add to the beauty of the
streets, to their at tract i ve uss for
residential purposes, and therefor*
to the value of the p^perti**
where they are planted, it behooves
all who wish to enjoy their be
auties and to benefit by their
advantages to plant trees. This
