Fortunate are men of any occupa tion who control their income and do not permit it to control them. Such men will not become self-centered; they will not seek special favors from the state or government, nor from individuals with whom they deal. They will enjoy their income and use it to their own interest and to advance the interest of soceity. Fortunate is every farmer who re gards his farm as a home where he may live and enjoy life; where he may read, study and meditate upon those things that are better than wealth; where he may rear his chil dren and enjoy the companionship of his family and the fellowship of his neighbors. It will require large crops and profitable animals to do this; it will demand hard work and dilligent study to supply the necessary comforts of life; it will bring hardships and de privations to meet the demands of progressive farming, but when one is free he will get pleasure and satis faction in meeting his obligations. But this is our privilege as farm ers and citizens to accumulate hon estly as much wealth as we can and | use it for th?-, benefit of ourselves, our families and for the advancement of the state and nation.-Farm and Ranch. Dairying is Profitable. Usually no division of activity on the farm is more profitable for the in vestment and labor involved than a few or a herd of good dairy cows. No Jarm, however smal], operated by the owner or a tenant, should be without a few milking cows,, properly cared for and fed. The milk or cream from a cow is marketable throughout the year at good prices, and furnishes a regular and steady income every week. Farm ers of Oklahoma can feed and take I care of milking cows cheaper than in j many other sections of our country, j Milk and cream are in great demand ; in the state, and has always received good prices. High prices of dairy j products are practically assured for j many years to come. The most profitable method of handling dairy cows by the average farmer is to market cream and use the skim-milk for bringing up calves and pigs. As the dairy grows, a mar- j ket may be found for selling sweet; cream or milk to a nearby city. I Dairying is profitable for the fol- j lowing simple reasons: 1. It provides a steady, cash in-1 come throughout the year. 2. Grass and rough feeds can be turned into a food product which commands a high price. 3. It keeps labor on the farm profitably employed during the en tire year. 4. Dairying increases the product iveness of the land by furnishing ma nure to fertilize the soil. 5. Dairying can begin with little capital, and can in a few years bring prosperity to any farmer or tenant of I limited (means.-Oklahoma, A. and M. Cemetery Lot Purchased. A meeting of the subscribers to the cemetery fund met Friday after noon for the purpose- of selecting a lot for a new village cemetery. Eight of ten lots had been offered to the committee and after consid?ring ail of them it was finally agreed thift six acres be purchased from Mrs. Helen S. Nicholson somewhat to the rear of her residence on the west side of the road leading from the Columbia road to what is known as the Reese place, now owned by Mr. M. P. Wells. The price paid was $400 per acre. Death of Stanmore Griffin. Tuesday morning Mr. Stanmore Griffin died in Columbia at the home of his mother, Mrs. James Griffin, af ter' a lingering illness extending through many months He became a victim* of tuberculosis which steadily sapped his strength and vitality. He was in his 25 year and was the only son of his mother. When Stanmore left Edgefield he was quite a small boy but is pleasantly remembered by many of his age and generation. His body will be brought to Edgefield this afternoon on the two o'clock train and the interment will take place in the village cemetery. He is survived by his mother and three sisters. Deserved "Well Done." After serving the Trinity Church about 14 years as rector, serving the churches also at Trenton, Ridge Spring and Batesburg, Rev. R. G. Shannonhouse left Edgefield Friday to enter upon his labors at Fitz gerald, Ga. May heaven's richest blessings accompany him and abide with him and his family. From the time Mr. Shannonhouse came to Edgefield from Union, he has been faithful in season and out of season. Not only has he served the members of his parish well but he has been ac tively identified with thc community life, having willingly put his shoulder to the wheel in every movement that had for its end the uplifting and up building the community. He will be greatly missed. Mrs. Shannonhouse will likewise be greatly missed. Like her husband, she gave largely of her life to others, using talents with which she was richly endowed for the pleasure and edification of others The best wishes of The Advertiser and other friends go with these good peo ple to their new homo. Lieut. Dunovant at Home. Last Saturday night Lisut. R. G. M. Dunovant arrived in Edgefield with his honorable discharge in his pocket. Sustaining the reputation of hi? gallant ancestor?, Gill Dunovant volunteered for military service just before receiving his. diploma, from Woffqrd College, it being issued to him later. He went at once to the of ficers' training camp and soon receiv ed a commission as lieutenant. In o bedience to the commands of the war department, Lieut. Dunovant went overseas for foreign service in the summer of 1918 and for four or five months before the armistice was signed he was in active service, being on the front line much of the time. He relates, with some degree of re luctance, many war-time experiences that are thrilling and replete with in terest. Several weeks ago his com 'pany was sent back to the United States and was mustered out. All of Edgefield honors such young men as' Lieut. Dunovant who gave up every thing for their country. Court of Common Pleas. Instead of extending through two weeks as was expected at one time, the court of common pleas, which convened Monday, will last only three or four days. The first case called Monday was the suit brought by Mr. John W. Marsh against Mr. W. P. Johnson for $2,900. Some time in 1917 Mr. Johnson-sold Mr. Marsh 100 bales of cotton to be delivered during Octo ber and November of that year at 20 cents per pound. Mr. Johnson deliver ed 40. bales and Mr. Marsh brought suit for the difference between the contract price, 20 cents, and the price at which cotton was selling at the time the cotton was to have been de livered, 29 1-2 cents, for the remain ing GO bales. The "jury rendered a ?verdict of $1,535 for the plaintiff, j The court is engaged this morning with the suit of Mr. A. C. DePass a garnst Mr. A. E. Padgett for the re covery of about one acre of land, the ownership being in dispute because of the change in the course of Tur |key Creek, this stream being the ?boundary line between the lands of I Mr. DePass and Mr. Padegtt. At the hour of closing our forms the court is engaged with this suit. All of the petit Jurors not sitting in this case have been discharged.

DIZZINESS IS ANNOYING As Many Edgefield People Know Too Well. When the kidneys are weak or dis ordering, they fall behind in filtering the bl^d of poisons. As these poi sons attack the nerves, the result is felt - in spells of vertigo, just as drunkenness will make a man dizay from the poisoning of alcohol. Dizzi ness, headache, backache and irregu larity of the kidney secretions are all signs of weak or disordered kidneys and should not be neglected. Use Doan's Kidney Pills, the home-endors ed kidney remedy. Read this Edge field resident's statement: Mrs. J. P. Samuels, 5 Battle Row, says: "It was in 1914 that I used Doan's Kidney Pills for the first time. At that time my kidneys were giving me a lot of trouble. The most com I plaint was with my back and it felt stiff and lame all the time. I couldn't tstoop over and dizzy speHs bothered me. My kidneys acted irregularly and caused me a g-jat deal of an noyance, too. F' ally, I began to use Doan's Kidne Pills and they prompt ly relieved me of the trouble." Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy get' Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that Mrs. Samuels had. Foster-Mil burn Co., Mfgrs., Buffalo, N. Y. A large shipment of Wath Waists arrived this week.
