The Edgefield cotton mill, like
hundreds of other mills, has great
difficulty in obtaining sufficient
cotton to keep its spindles run
ning full time. Mr. H. A. Smith
went to Spartanburg last week to
purchase cotton, buying 100 balee

the cotton seeks the buperbut now
the buyers go out and search the

Such would always be the case ii
it were made a secondary instead
of primary crop.

There is geperal complaint o
the scaicity of labor. The quarrj
has had a very demoralizing effec
upon lobor in the vicinity of Edge
field. There the common lahore
receives from 90 cents to $1.10 pe
day and it is, of course, out of th
question for farmers to pay cucl
prices. Should farmers try to mak
crops with $ j a day labor the sher
iff would "git em" this fall, Th
work at the quarry is much barde
and more hazardous than work oi

Mr. W. E. P. thro, the mayor

guest of Dr. ard Mrs. E. C. Smith.
Mr. Willie Cogburn, who has
been playing good ball on the Cp

last Hon. W. A. Strom purchased

May the Great Physician yet
stay the disease and restore young
Talton Brunsou to health. For
several days he has been lying at

Tuesday,is that he is no better.
Col. and Mrs. F. N. K. Bailey,
accompanied by the little ones, ar
rived from Bamberg on Friday
last. They will go by private
conveyance to Clyde, N. C., next
week where they will spend a

Home hotel.
We regret that Mr. E. H. Talbert
is very ill with typhoid fever at
his home .three miles south of
Edgefield. He is receiving the
best possible attention but a pro
longed attack of fever will go very
hard with him as he has been in
bed only three days in his life on
account of sickness.
Mrs. B. D. Thames, who has
been quite sick for more than a
month, was thought to be strong
enough on Thursday laet to be
carried to the home of her parents
at Lykesland, Richland county.
On arriving in Columbia she was
takpn suddenly worso and Mr.
Thames carried her to the hospital
where 6he will remain sometime
for treatment.
A colored friend called at our
sanctum a few days ago and asked
for a "catlin margage,"but our
stock in trade of blanks did not
contain one that answered to that
name. Possibly that is one of the
vagaries of the last legislature
that has come to light-the change
of nomenclature or creation of a
new legal form or blank.
In order save the expense of
conducting two stores, such as
rents, etc.. Messrs. Ramsey &
Jones have decided to move thoir
stock of jewelry and silver ware
into their main store. The liue
of silver ware is a fitting comple
ment to several other lines of their
large stock of house furnishings.
The change will be made as soon
as the handsome wall case that is
being nade is completed.
Mr. W. H. Turner spent the
greater part of last week in Au
gusta assisting in nursing his lit
tle nephew, the nine-year old son
of Mr. and Mrs. P. F. Sarling.
This bright little child died on
Friday and was buried Saturday
afternoon. Mr. and Mrs. Sarling
have been sorely bereaved, having
lost four of their five children.
The sympath}- of their Edgefield
friends is with them in this dark
home.
A professional mau in Edgefielc
remarked to us that as cotton hac
reached 12 cents he would have t(
take down his shingle, shut u\
sh )\, and buy a farm. He thiuki
there is more money jn cotton a
10 cents than in almost anythinj
else. There may not be mori
money in farming than can bi
made in some other pursuits bu
we confidently believe that, al
things considered, there is mor
genuine happiness.
We kuow of one farmer in Edge
field county who made 22 heav
bales of cotton last year with tw
mules. He averaged 10 cents
pouud for his entire crop and ye
hundreds say that no money ca
be made at faiming. The farme
in question does not live in whs
might lie called a garden spc? c
the county and ii seems tba
roany others could do what'he'bc
done. Success or failure depenc
more' upon \he man than upo
rnveronments or the pursuit cbosa
J his is true not only of fantail
but of all lines of human end^ayo
A Strong: Testimoni.il
Mr. Ediior :
I feel it ray duty to express pub
licly ray appreciation of the satis
factory manner in which Mr. Jas.
T. Minis' company, Liverpool &
London & Globe Insurance Com
pany, has dealt with me in the
loss of ray house by fire. They
have paid th* full amouot of poli
cy, being $1,675.
Very respectfully,
j. M. MCKIE.
Barn and Contents Burned
On Saturday night last at about
two o'clock one of the large barns
of Dr. W. E. P cott was burned.
The building ntained a great
quantity of oaL, corn and fodder,
which was also burned. Tba en
ti.e loss is entimated at $1,000; no
insurance. The origin of tho fire
is unknown. The hour at which
the fire occurred would cause one
to suspect that it was the act of an
incendiary. The friends of Dr.
Prescott regret that he has sus
tained such a heavy loss.
Given a Reception
Upon the return of Mr. and
Mrs. Wiley G. Ouzts from their
wedding journey on Wednesday
evening last Sheriff and Mrs. W.
H. Ouzts gave them a delightful
reception at their home. A great
number of Edgefield's young peo
ple were invited to participate in
the pleasurers of the evening.
For the present Mr. and Mrs. W.
G. Ouzts are boarding at the home
of Mrs. Ida F' Sheppard, where
they are "at home" to their friends
PRIMARY ELECTION.
Partial Returns from Tuesday's
Election.
A full and accurate report
of the result of the primary
cannot be given before Thurs
day, when the official count
will be made. Had we held
this issue over] for complete
returns many of our readers
would not have received their
paper till Saturday. We tel
ephoned for the Johnston and
Trenton re'urns, which, with
the Edgefield vote, we give in
full :
FOR SUPERVISOR:
Ed fid John Tren

Parks
Quarles
Self
I Total -
ID the first primary of last year
Johnston's vote was 207, Trenton's
81 and Edgefield's 270. A total of
558 votes,against 320 Tuesday.
This is 45 per cent less than
last year. If the vote has been
proportionately light at all of the
22 precincts not over 900 votes
have been polled,against 1,571 last
year.
It is piobable that a second pri
mary will be necessary to elect a
Supervisor. Not until the official
count is made will it be definitely
known who will be in the second
race. ?
The ADVERTISER will give a full
report next week.
A Postal Card.
We herewith reproduce verbatim

The Rough Roads.
During winter and early spring
the cry was bad roads, now it is
the rough roads. Although the roads
are firm, and heavy loads can be
drawn over them, they are misera
bly rough. The deep ruts and
holes that were made by heavy
wagons when the ground was soft
are siill there. If a man drives
for 25 miles over some of Edge
field's roads and does not feel the
effects of the joltings and jnsthngE
for a week afterwards he must be
made of clay of an extraordinary
kiud, The point we wish to make
is that while tho roads ar3 ver)
rough they are passable now bu
should these ruts and holes reman
there till fall, the Feasou in whicl
good roads are most needed, they
will beoome practically impassabli
Could these places be fillod now i
would not requ're much time o
labor. It is up to the Buperviso
to grapple with this road problem
If popsible the convict force
should be increased so as to cove
as mauy miles of roads in summe
as possible. That "a stitch ii
time saves niuo - is especially tru
of ?foao} working. ' fyr. Superviso:
whoever you are, wheu you ge
your commission you must als
get your picks and shovels, pu
off your coat and make good thoe
promises ^hat are fresh from yoi
lipF. Yoi may forget them late
on.

on horticulture and fruit growing,
and Prof. Wister Daniel, the rep
resentative of industrial ed'cation.
The special subjects for the lec
tures can be arranged to suit each
place where there is a demand for
a certain lino of information.
It is very important that you, as
manager of your iustitute,give am
ple publicity to the fact that the
institute ia to be held there on the
above date so that all who may
desire to do so can attend.
? notice in your local or county
paper will be an excellent means
of advertising it, and hand bills or
posters would serve a valuable
purpose.
It is understood that there will
bo no other meeting there at the
time to conflict with this, and that
no political discussions or other
attractions will be billed for the
same date in connection with the
institute.
I wish also to have it thoroughly
known that the State Farmer's In

Making: Improvements.
The officials of the Edgefield
Manufacturing Company are hav
ing the oil mill thoroughly over
hauled throughout all of its depart
ments. Repairs are being made
where needed and where the ma
(chiuery is considerably worn it is
being replaced by new machines
of the most improved type. When
completed the ginnery will be
practically new throughout. Six
new gins will replace the old ones.
In future there can be no com
plaint about lint being left on the
seed. New pressseB and elevators
are being put io. The manage
ment has very wisely decided tc
put in suction systems for unload
ing cotton from the wagons anc
conveying it to the gins. Thii
will be a great improvement ova]

lic adjusted itself to the recent
change in the railway schedule be
1 fore another change was announc
. ed which became effective on Sun
I day last. The last change was
I made necessary on account of the
rock trains between Edgefield

Until further notice the early
morning train will leave at 6 and
return at 9:10; the second train
leaves at 12:10 and returns at 2:

the new schedule those who go to
Augusta for the day will leave that
city at 1 instead of 3 p. ra. as

We direct attention to the letter
of appreciation from Mr. J. M.
McKie which we publish else
where. Not long since tho valua
ble property owned by Mr. McKie,
known as the Lanham place, near
Ropers was bumed. It wae in

Globe and Liverpool and London
insurance company. As soon as the
proof of loss was properly prepared
the face of the policy, $1675, was
paid without a word. Mr. "iras

BLACK-DRAUGHT
THE ORIGINAL
?LIVER MEDICINE
' A sallow complexion, dizziness,^*
biliousness and a coated tongue
are common indications of liver
and kidney diseases. Stomach and
bowel troubles, severe as they are,
give immediate warning by pain,
But liver and kidney troubles,
though less painful at the start, are
much harder to cure. Thedford's
Black-Draught never fails to bene
fit diseased liver and weakened kid
neys. It stirs up the torpid liver
to throw off the germs of fever and
ague. It is a certain preventive
or cholera and Bright's disease of
the kidneys. With kidneys re
inforced by Thedford's Black
Draught thousands of persons have
dwelt immune in the midst of yel
low fever. Many families live in
Serfect health and have no other
octor than Thedford's Black
Draught. It is always on hand for
use in an emergency and saves
many expensive calls of a uoctor.
Mullins, S. C, March 10,1001. 1
I have used Thedford's Black-Draught
for three years and I have not had to go
to a doctor since I have been taking it
lt is the best medicine for me that ts
on the market for liver and kidney
troubles and dyspepsia and other
