Delegates Elected to the State Convention^Splendid Results Obtained by President Parl?s. In response to the call of Presi dent W. R. Parks, a meeting of the Farmers' Union was held in the court house Saturday morning. Quite a number of delegates from the local union? were pr?sent, and after reading the minutes- and dis posing of regular routine business the following delegates to the state convention which meets in Colum bia, July 22nd,' were appointed: W. R. Parks, J. M. Wright, George Cartledge and HY W. Dobey. Mr. J. M. Wright was elected business agent. This organization has accom plished great good for the fanners of this and other states, 'therefore' 'we trust that instead of letting (he interest wane, the farmers will put-f" new life into the organization. Here is what some of the mem bers of the Union haye been doing: ' Hon. W. R. Parks sowed six bush els and one N pint of wheat, on ten and a half acres of land last fall and threshed 339 bushels of wheat 'therefrom, which is an av?rage yield of over SS bushels per acre. There is no good reason why far mers should now be^paying $8.00 per barrel for flour. What Mr. Parks has done this year, every other farmer can do. ~~ Mr. B. D.. JKitchings out 9,000 pounds cf good crimson clover hay from an acre and three quarters of land. Hr. Ki tebin g3 is a wide-awake, progressive farmer and appreciates tho value of growing a winter for age crop. Mr. Geo. W. Scott has been sell ing corn this year, and the outlook at present is, that he will make enough to supply his neighbors next year. Aside from the power that far mers gain through organization, the members of the Union are benefit ted by exchanging . hieas, methods, etc., at the, meetings of their local Unions. Relating their achievement encourages and inspires others to do likewise.. The Advertiser bids the Farmers Union God-speed in its work for advancement of the agricultur nterests of. the county '.and-steted e would like to see the. organiza tion grow until the hame -of every farmer m the conntv wa.<- on its roll. Trib?te te Mrs. Mamie Miller. Whereas, it has pleased God in his infinite wisdom to take, unto himself our beloved- sister, Mrs. Mamie Miller, we the members of th* Woman's Missionary Society of Peace Haven, wish to record our appreciation of the worth v of this Christian worker, and . bow with perfect submission to his will; there fore, be it resolved, 1st That ia ber death ourW. M. U. has lost one of its truest and most faithful - workers. She was ever ready to help in all our under takings. 2nd That while we sorrow over ^jer departure we recognize that it is God that has bereft us and he doeth all things well. 3rd That our loss is. her eternal gain, and while she will come to our meetings no more with her loving sympathy, she has left behind her influences for good that will never die, and that come up as memorials oi" a sweet smelling savor before that God whom she so faithfully served while here on earth. . 4th That we extend our deepest sympathy to the bereaved husband and children. 5th That a copy of these resolu tions be sent to the family and pub lished in the county papers and that a page in our minutes be' given to her memory.

CAPITAL INCREASED. Twin City Power Company Will Increase Capital Stock From One to Three Million Dollars. As stated in The Advertiser, last week, the/ investment of northern capital in the "extreme, western edge of the county by the Twin City Power Company means much to Edgefield county. Recent develop ments have revealed the . fact that this enterprise is of greater magni tude than our people ever dreamed of. Tne company was originally capitalized at $1,000,000 but last week made application to the Secre tary of State for permission to in crease the capital to $3,000,000, which wilt1 make it rank among the largest corporations in the South. After the mammoth plant is comple ted and the property is returned for taxation at sixty per cent of its val ue, just as all other property is re turned, it will lighten the? tax bur den very materially. * The people of the county are in debted to Mr. L. F. Dorn for this stroke of good fortune. The Twin City Company owns thousands of acres of land on the Georgia banks of the river, besides its large hold ings on the Carolina side, and its promoters could have had it incor porated under the laws of Georgia instead of Soth Carolina, making its property returnable for taxation in the former state. Through the in fluence of 'Mr. Dorn, who has been the company's local manager for several years, it was made a South Carolina corporation, consequently whatever benefits accrue will.be reaped by the people on this side of the Savannah. A thousand thanks to Parksville's progressive citizen. The . Columbia correspondent to the News and Courier had the fol lowing to say of the increase of the capital stock: ."The Secretary of, State to-day granted the ^win City Power Com pany the right to increase its capi tal stock from $1,000,000 to_$8,000 000. The principal place of busi ness of the company hf at P/arksville in Edgefield Co;mty. The directors of the company are Thomas O'Con nor,!) M. Maekaye, G. j. O'Connor,. G, R. Coffin and L. F. Dcm. " v**The char??r of the company "em powers \\ to engage in . the,business of-p nrchasing? acquiring-and con structing dams, canals and other work for the purpose of developing power by water and electricity to transmit and sell, to build mills and other manufacturing- establishments and to engage in manufacturing gen erally, and for such other uses and. purposes as are more fully and par ticularly set forth in said charter." Advertise-and Do It First The catalogu? houses are far and away the best advertisers on deck to-, day. Why? Take their book and read. You will find a description . that describes. A picture that sho* "how the-thing looks." A price that tells how much it costs. That is the sum and substance of their advertising-and it gets the business. The local newspaper is the Nbest ad vertising medium on earth for the local merchant-if he will only use it. He is on the ground. He has the goods. If he is out of an article he can get it quicker than the custo-' mer-if he can'the had better try another house. He stands behind his goods. He is there tomorrow to rectify the error of today. But he must get the attention of the buyer -and he must get that attention be fore the catalogue man does. The most effective way is through the columns of the local newspaper. Jobber and Retailer. The Bashful Lover. A love smitten youth who was studying the approved method of proposal asked one of his bachelor friends if he thought that a young man should propose to a girl on his knees. "If he doesn't,'* replied,, his friend, "the girl should get off." 'Sign of Improvement The follqwing was told, accor ding to Judge, of the patient of a well known New York physician: The patient,. an elderly gentle man, became quite ill while -the doctor was absent, upon a vacation, the indisposition being the result of Jtoo frequent potations. A female nurse was at once engaged td care for him in his hotel. A lady, resining in the sanie ho tel, became aware of his illness, and interested herself to the extent of one morning inquiring concerning his condition of the chambermaid. "Share, ma'am," replied Maggie, "an' I think he clo be gettin' along very well. The nurse was sitjtin' on his lap this monning!" . JOHNSTON LETTER. Many, Visitors Come and Go.

So favorably is he known ,in Mc Cormick that the merchants there closed their stores that they might assemble and listen' t^pis, ; discouse. Burts is a mah ?f?Bne personal ity and his address of over an hour's duration received earnest attention. One-argument in favor of prohibit ion was a practical ?n|p)usiness-iike j one, namely: that'np l^e.^ corpora tion wouhil employ a pian known to be addicted to the use ?f intoxicants. I do not. mean this was his only ar gument in favor of prohibition. I would like to ?peak of all the business that; came'before the. Con vention and give a synopsis of all the addresses.

Miss Anna Finnstrom,'superinten dent of the Door of Hope at Colum bia, S. C., gave a stirring, address on rescue work. Its object was to in duce the! legislature to raise the ex isting age of consent two years, namely: from sixteen to eighteen, She believed there would ^then be fewer to rescue, as girls would then be more thoughtful of themselves. At the close of her address various questions were asked, her abf.ait her work; her speech had aron-.Vi inter est which found expression ia a sub stantial offering to mr:. .:. uer I Mr! W. W.

In response to the call of Presi dent James' R. Cantelou, a goodly number of the stockho?ders of the' County Fair Association was held in the court house Saturday morn ing". The first business disposed of was effecting a permanent organiza tion hy the election'of the following pfiicers: J. R. Cantelou, president; J. L. Mims, vice-president; L. W. Cheatham,' secretary; J. G. Tomp kins, treasurer; B. B. Jon?s, mana-. 'ger. The following gentlemen were chosen as the board' bf directors: J. R. Cantelou, N. G. Evans, W. W. Adams, S. B. Nicholson, W, L. Dunovant, J. C. Sheppard, J. Wm. Thurmond, B. Cantelou, J. P. O?izts, S. B. Mays and W. H. Tur ner. From this board the president ap- ' pointed the following to serve on the executive committee1 Dr. J. ?G. Tompkins, \B. B. Jones, N. G. Evans, W. W. Adams and B. Can telou. Dr. J. G. Tompkins and Mr. B. B. Jones were appointed a commit tee^ to. visit the Batesburg fair . grounds and inspect -the buildings, etc., with the view of drawing plans for the Edgefield fair. They will report to the executive commit tee and then immediate steps will be taken to improve the fair grounds here. The gentlemen who attended Saturday's meeting were very en thusiastic, being very much en- j conraged over the outlook. The treasurer reported that of the ?1,350.00 originally subscribed $512 have been collected and that $132 have been paid out on vouch ers properly signed by the preui- ; dent, leaving a balance of ??480,00 in the treasury. The stockholders who have not yet paid in the amount subscribed should do so at once, so'as tb enable the executive committee to begin ; theerection of the. building heces- '"> ssrv for the. holding of next fall's The World's Work has a timery editorial upon the- efficiency of the agriculturist in the south as against 1 that of the farmer of the north. Iowa receives $1,088 a year for ag ricultural products for every farm laborer/within her borders. New 1 Hampshire receives $477, North 1 Carolina $149 and South Carolina 1 $147. The net product per acre is' ! 40 per cent less in the South than, in the North Central States. Con- ! tinning, the World's Work says: "The reason for this discrepancy ' is not in the soil, for-whether or ; not the soil of the Carolinas is capa- 1 ble pf as much as that of Iowa-it certainly is as rich as the soil of New Hampshire. The land and the [ climate are favorable. The fault lies with man7 and not inherently : with him, but with his training and with his methods. With no larger agricultural population than she has now, the south could produce three times her present output if her popu lation were as efficient as that of New Hampshire. Dr. Seaman A. Knapp of the department of agri culture believes that it can be in creased eightfold. And x there are . enough instances of the large.re sults obtained from proper cultiva tion to justify Dr. Knapp's opti mism." Patronize The Concord Nurseries. I To my friends and patrons throughout Edgefield and Saluda counties: ? / I beg to say, I fear I will not be able .to visit the home of every land owner in the interest of the well known, and justly popular Concord Nurseries of Georgia, but any one wishing to inspect our line of fruit or ornamental tress, ^!an notify me through the mail, and I will call on them with pleasure. I would call special attention to the ever-bearing mulberry, which begins to drop its fruit early in spring and continues through the summer, being very valuable for hogs and poultry. One tree is worth a barrel of corn every year. It is also valuable as a shade and or namental tree, and will bear the second year. Ono of my customers says he has one that he would not take twenty-five dollars for. Drop me a card at Edgefield, when in need "of any kind of trees or flower?. P. R. WATES.

The crops in this section and in face in western Carolina so far aa I have observed are small and backward on account of too much rain. The two or three weeks, how ever, of sunshine preceding the last seige of rain, gave the farmers a chance. to clean their crops, and though small . in many sections, promise a fair yield. The highly manured corn either planted on the Williamson plan or for the prize contest is growing since the last rain and a good yield of corn is possible even yet, notwithstanding the ad verse conditions prevailing during planting time.\ A great many people from $he surrounding county came into Parksville during the last week, some of whom were O.O. Seigler, of Seiglertown, Mr. Press Strom, of Rehoboth, and Mr. Will Reel and his interesting little boy from Cleora. We give these gentlemen a glad welcome and hope they may come oftener. Some of our people also visited other communities, notably Miss Emily Beall and Addie Bell who spent a pleasant time among kins folks at Rehoboth. They found your valued, correspondent, "Subscriber", Buffering from a broken rib. s Hope he will soon be O. K. again. The following delegates were elected by the Parksville BaptiBt Sunday school to the convention to meet soon at Trenton: J; C., Mor gan, John R. Blackwell, John Bus Bey, L. F. Dorn and James Parks.

We' meantto write you last week abo ut our 4th of July picnic at Lor rick's pond but work was so pressing that we neglected it. This little gathering is an unusual affair. This makes, if we,mistake not, the fourth year we have celebrated this day in a very quiet pleasant way. We have no amusement except to come together as friends, enjoy a friendly chat and afine hash -dinner. W? were sorry that The Advertiser was not represented. We had _ quite, a pleasant chat with our distinguished ' friend, Editor Bacon. A protracted meeting service is being held at the Baptist church this week. The pastor is being as sisted by Dr. E. E. Bo mar, bf Char lotte, N. C. Dr. BomaT is a gifted speaker. His sermons are full of wise counsel and it is hoped that his work here will be productive "' of gr?at and lasting good. Do our people appreciate the opportunity of hearing such a powerful man of God? What seems to be the drift of man? Is it toward materialism, the world, towards that which gives pleasure for a season and then leaves man weaker, or do we ever stop to think^rjf the God given blessings we enjoy every day and turn aside from the busy rush in life to give the Creator praise and thanks for what he has done for us. Our children are growing np to manhood and womanhood. Are we using every opportunity to give them the proper training, not a hand and head training merely bat a heart training, the foundation for character. The sad news of the death of Mr. John Day reached us Sunday. Crops are coming oat. Somercorn is good in most places and good seasons for , a fortnight will carry the crop where it will be safe. We heard a man say the other day that the offering of the corn prizes by the editor had been worth at least $1,000.00 to the county. Mr. Editor, that is speaking well for your work. We wont aay anything much about cotton. Some how or other it is sort of an unknown quantity. We will call it X at present. We are" looking forward to the convention next Week with much pleasure. . He Was Ahead, Anyway. "An elderly man who was hard of bearing had a prescription filled that amounted to fifty-five cents. As he took the prescription he asked, 'How much?' "F-f-f-if-t>five cents,' said the pharmacist, bat the old man only heard the ave' and gave a nickel in payment. Vain were the attempts of the pharmacist to make the old man hear as he walked out of the store, and as . he passed through the door the pharmacist said: 'Go to h-hell.
