M. Padgett, a very suc cessful farmer who resides eix miles below Trenton, called at our office while in Edgefield recently. Mr. Padgett stated that crops in his immediate section were ex ceptionally fine. Besides making a bale of cotton to the acre, he harvested about 175 bushels of peas which he can readily sell at this time for $2 per bushel. Soldier Boys' Oyster Supper* After the members of the Edge field Rifles dispose of- business matters at their regular meeting *>u Thursday night a delightful oyster- supper will be served in the armory. The members of the company and some of their friends who have been honored with in vitations are looking forward to the occasion with the pleasantest anticipations. Army of Fair Teacher o. Edgefield probably furnishes more young lady teachers than any ether place of its size-in the state. The following young ladies came home from their respective schools to spend the Christmas vacation : Miss Josie Sheppard, Miss Eleanor Nicholson, Miss dlmuie Ryan, Miss Mattie Mims, Mies Lillian Smith, M?SB May Roper, Miss Nollie Hill, Miss Mat tie Lyon and Miss Daisy Lyon. Fifteen Bales From Ten Acres. The.Horn's Creek bills are high and many of them appear to be barren and bleak at a distance but they never fail under favora ble conditions to produce heavy crops. The soil in that section seems to be peculiarly adapted to cottou. Mr. W. E. Ouzts, a level headed young farmer who has charge of the Wise place, made fifteen bales of cotton from ten acres last year-1907. We have uot heard of a better yield from ten acres. Large Lot ef Seed. Those who bought cotton seed when tho price was low and have held them for au advance will yet profit by it. Mr. Abner Broad water, who is not only a success ful farmer but a far-Bighted busi ness ?nan as wall, has about 4,000 bushels of cotton seed that he will not put upon the market until somebody offers bira a very tempting price. Mr. Broadwater also bas nearly his entire cotton crop on hand. Pension Board to Meet. The county pension board will hold its first meeting of the new year in Auditor HaJtiwnnger's office ,on Monday, January ?tb. The board is composed of Messrs. W. M. Clark, Wm. Glenn and A. A Gilchrisu Mr. J. N. Fair, pen eion commissioner for th is coun ty, is by virtue of the position he holds a member of the board also. The pension commissioner will be in the Auditor's office every Sat urday to receive applications for pensions. It is probable that there will not be many new applicants th is year but some of the old pen sioners will doubtless eudeavor to be rajsed to a higher claBS.. -.-.- ;; K. ofiP, Officer J Elected. At* the last regular meeting of the Edgefield lodge Kuights of Pythias the following officers were elected to serve for the ensuing year: L. R. Jones, C. C.; A. G. Broadwater, V. C. ; P. P. Blalock, Jr., Prelate; B. L. Jones, M. of W.;Dr. C. P. DeVore, M. of E. ; N. M. Jones, M. of F. ; R. C. Pad gett, M. at A. ; J. C. Walker, Inner Guard, and N. L. Brunson, Outer Guard. The affairs of the Edge field lodge were never before in a more flourishing condition. At al most every meeting new mem bers-men who would be an hon or to any organization-are added to its ranks. Mav the Knights of Pythias continue to prosper in Edgefield during the year 19081 Remembered the Orpkang. Departing from the regular cus tom of giving the childron of the church a Christmas tree, the mem bers of the Presbyterian church conceived the happy idea of bringing the children together at the Christmas season and have them send gifts to the Thornwell orphanage. In carrying out this plan, the Presbyterian flock as sembled at the church on Thurs day afternoon last and packed a large box with clothing and nice things to eat. The box which was worth some thirty-odd dollars and a cash contribution of $13 have bee? sent to Dr. Jacobs to be used in making the little fatherless and motherless children comfortable and happy. We like this plan of bestowing Christmas gifts, and trust that it will bo quite general ly adopted twelve months hunce.

Money in the Land yet? The panic may yet be lingering ill acme sections but little, trace of it can be seen io Edgefield. In fact, there baa not at any. time been a lack of funda to transact the usual amount of business in this section. The local banks have been able 'to supply every need. Ode of the bpst evidences that there is money iu the land yet is found in the fact that in paying for some real estate a few days ago through the office of the Judge of Probate, a gentleman counted out $1,080 in gold. Such a large quantity of the yellow metal being counted out from the pocket of an individual was rather an unusual sight. Treed "Possum and Taters.** We have had reports from a number of Christmas bunters, but our friend Sam Taylor takes the "blue ribbon" over them all. A few mornings ago he espied some big possum tracks Dear his borne. Aud being surfeited on the sea son's nick-nacks, and longing for something more substantial, Sam set out to find the said possam's den. After going some distance through briars, bushes, brambles, mud and slush, he found the pos sum "at home" to his friends un der a huge clay-root. Undismayed by the size of the clay-root or the seeming great depth'of the den, Edgefield's Daniel Boone dug away until he finally reached the grizzly old fellow. And in addi tion to finding the possum, Sam found about a bushel of sweet potatoes in the said den that the marsupial had stored away to feed upon iu winter. Seldom in deed does one feast upon "pos sum and taters" that were found under the same clay-root. Christmas Tree at Baptist Church. On Thursday evening the Bap tist church was arrayed in holi day attire to celebrate the happy Christmas season. A cantata, "The Shepherds of Long Ago" was ren dered, and participated in by the whole school, both young and old. The music was beautiful and in spiring, consisting of solos, cho ruses, quartettes by the children and the choir, the Baraca class and the young women of the Sun day schooK The decorations, trees filled with bright ornaments and boxes of good things, were artis tic and charmed the little folks, and brought a feeling of good cheer to older people which they had not known for many a year. All the boxes were btar shaped, and wore filled with candy and huts. These gifts along with ap ples aud oranges, were presented to all the happy children, and they went home more enthusiastic over the good Christmas time than ever. Mrs. J. H. Tillman was congratulated many times for her faithfulness and ingenuity in dis covering aod trainmg so .many Dew and beautiful voices. Retires After Twelve Years. || Mr. J. D. Holstein has an nounced that he will retire from the management of the Lynch drug store and that Mr. W. C. Lynch will succeed bim as mana ger. Soon after the death of the lamented W. E. Lynch, twelve vears ago, Mr. Holstein took ob arge of the business'for his sis ter, Mrs. Lynch, her sons being then in school and too young to assume such weighty responsibili ty. Those who have as the years passed watched the steady and substantial growth of the Lynch store have been impressed with the fact that its affairs wera being directed by a master hand. Mrs. Lyuch has been peculiarly fortu nate in having one so faithful and so capable to manage her business interests. Mr. W. C. Lynch is well equip ped for the new duties that now devolve upon him. He is a full graduate of Davidson College, later graduating in pharmacy in Baltimore, and has bad five years of practical experience inv.the store 6ince leaving college. We feel confident that he will conduct the affairs of this old and popular drug store in a most satisfactory manner. After resting for a season, Mr. Holstein will probably engage in i business on his own account. How ever, for the present his plans are not fully matured. Success to him io whatever business he may em bark 1 Spectacles made up to suit your particular need at lowest possible price. Geo. P Mims, Edgefield,*S. C.

Death of Mr. W. B. Lowrey. While the Ruinates of millions of hornee over th? land were mak ing merry and enjoying the holi day festivities, not a few homes were shrouded in the deepest gloom and sorrow, occasioned by a visit from the Death Angel. Tbf home of Mr. Whitfield B. Lowrey, at Velma, this county, was among the latter class. Mr. Lowrey, the father of the family and head of the household, breathed bis laet on Thureday, December 26th. Hu bad reached the ago of about . fifty-five . years, and during the major portion of this long life had been bale and strong, but about a year ago his health began to fail. The passing of each week marked a decline in bia strength. Reali zing the seriousness of his physi cal infirmity and that the end was dteadily approaching, Mr. Low rey's loved ones looked not with light and happy hearts to the ap proaching Christmas season as had been their wont for many years. They realized that there would soon come a separation, a severing of human ties that would bring untold anguish of heart and soul. Mi. Lowrey always led a quiet life. Instead of aspiring to public office and public life he preferred to pass his days in quiet retire ment with his family in their hap py home. He served bis commu uity faithfully as trustee of ihe public schools for a number of years, and waa postmaster a>t Vel ma at the time of bis death, the office being in his residenae. Mr. Lowrey wa? a good neighbor, a devoted husband, an indulgent father, a good citizen, and a truc and loyal iriend. His community will greatly miss him. A wife, three daughters and one son sur vive Mr. Lowrey. Being a personal friend of the deceased and a warm friend of the family, we beg to extend our ten derest sympathy in this hour of distress and great bereavement.
