It's unfortunate that field peas are
so high and scarce, for our farmers
jieed to sow largely of them this
spring and early summer. Well, they
are not really higher proportionately
than other cereals but they seem
high.
Mr. Bettis Cantelou has received a
fresh shipment of mules, which will
give farmers an opportunity to in- j
crease their horse-power, or rather !
mule-power, / and thereby catch up j
when "Old Sol" dries the soil suffi-1
ciently.
Rev. G. W. M. Taylor will begin a j
revival and prayer service in the ?
Methodist church Sunday morning, i
March 21, which will last for two
weeks. Such a service will be conduct
ed in all Southern Methodist church
es carrying out their plans in con-,
nection with the Centenary Move-,
ment.
It is with great pleasure that we
announce the renewal of the lyceum
contract by the members of the Civ
ic League for another season. This
will provide the highest type of en
tertainmen and diversion for our peo
ple. It will pay the community well,
even if not a single dollar is cleared
by the undertaking. Our best com
pensation comes frequently in un
seen ways.
Mr. Rainsford Cantelou is here
visiting his parents,' Mr. ?and Mrs. J.
R. Cantelou. He is serving as phar
macist for the leading drug store of

Make a start now and then your
neighbor will contract the "painting"
fever from you.
Dr. C. E. Burts came from Colum
bia to attend the Baptist conference
to-day but on account of the rain the
conference WES postponed. An an
nouncement of the exact date will
be made later.
j Already people are asking when
'water will be turned on in Edgefield
hemes. If the water and sewerage
systems are as satisfactory as the
electric light system has been, there
?will be but little ground for com
plaint.
I
\ Mr. B. B. Jones has sold the two
?lots between the residences of Mr.
'j. W. Morgan and Mr. L. P. Smith

?of modern residences thereon.
Mr. M. A. Taylor, who? has been
serving the Edgefield public faithful
ly for more than twenty years says

iness and will be ready at all times to

the foremost platform speakers of
the day.
"All For Edgefield; Edgefield
For All."
By sending heavy rains that keep
the soil too wet to prepare for plant
ing, the weather man is befriending
the weevil. Better not over plant.
More will be made upon a small
acreage well prepared, well fertilized
and well cultivated than from a large
acreage that only receives a "lick and
a promise" by way of cultivation.
Mr. A. S. Tompkins has returned
from a 'business trip to Charlotte and
also a visit to his son and daughter
in Columbia. It used to be said of Mr.
Tompkins that his love for his child
hood home at Meeting Street made
all roads lead that way for him, but
lately his path seems to diverge in
Columbia where two of his best be
loved children live.
The subject for the program was
noted suffragists, Jane Addams, of
Hull House, a paper prepared by Mrs.
Cantelou, another on Charlotte Per
kins Gillman, whose cradle in her in
fancy was sold to pay her mother's
taxes when she refused to pay them
without representation. The last was
a sketch of Susan B. Anthony, which
was prepared by Mrs. W. L. Duno
vant and was published in Sunday's
STRAYED: From my home Tues
day afternoon, a light brown Jersey
cow, above the average size. Had
halter on when last seen. Any infor
mation will be appreciated.

Great Educator Coming.

members of the Baptist church and
the people of the community for next
Sunday. We refer to the coming of
Dr. W. J. McGlothlin, president of
Furman University. There will be
two services, 11:30 in the forenoon
and 3^30 in the afternoon. The pub
lic is cordially invited to both. Dr.
