When I began taking the Compound I only weighed ninety-six pounds and now I weigh . one hundred and twenty-six pounds.

Town Wiped Out, All that is left tonight of Shawneetown is the new substantial brick and store buildings behind the main levee, and they are considered unsafe. There are less than 100 persons left in the former town of 8,000. They are in the second and third stories of the main s eefc buildings, the structures on the highest street in the town. A strong wind, rising at 10 o'clock- this morning,completed the destruction began by the opening of the south levee yesterday. The water within the levees was up to the 57-foot level of the Ohio river. A break in the northern levee also added to the danger of the town and ' the main force of the Ohio striking the north levee. The entire north and , east levees are submerged.

The dairymen and feeders of beef cattle in this State are realizing more and more the economical value of silage as a food. It you keep dairy cows or beef cattle and have not a silo, then you should moke an effort to build one this season so that it can be fflled in 'he fall for winter feeding. No person having as many as ten cow9 can afford to do without a silo. What is a silo? A silo i9 a tank or a pit, preferably round, with air-tight wall9, in which green and succulent feed can be preserved in a slightly fermented condition for future use. Silage is one of the best and most economical bulky or rough feed for cattle. A number of the dairymen are now paying ?10 a ton for cotton seed hulls when they might have produced silage for ?1.50 to $3.50 a ton. TMq inolndps the entire exnenditures for the crop from the time you begin cultivating the land until the silage is stored in the silo. The cost of silage depends largely upon the quantity of corn or sorghum that you can grow to the acre. Some people in this State have propuced as much as nine tons of silage to the acre, while others have not made more than three tonB to the acre. Three tons to the acre, however, is an exceptionally low production. Experiments have shown that by the nse of silage dairymen have gotten one-third more milk at one-third les9 cost than where hulls were used. We>re prepared to give yon personal assistance in the construction of a silo, as well as advise regarding the growing, cutting and feeding of a crop for silage. A silo can be put up with your own farm labor. If you begin work on a silo this spring, or early in the summer, personal assistance can be given to "??? ? fVia? if o/>n nrait: nntll UlWiD pcvptc IIUOU *1. JVM >< ? m? August or September.

Mrs. Rebecca Padgett, aged, 80years was struck and instantly killed at Bath, this State, last Wednesday, by Palm Limited train on the Southern Railway.

Anxious mothers often wonder why their children are so pale, thin and nervous and have so little appetite. For the benefit of such mothers in this vicinity we publish the following letter. J. Edmund Miller, New Haven, Conn., says: "My little daughter, ever since her birth, had been frail and. sickly, and was a constant source of worriment. Several months ago we j . - T (m. CULLILU fliUtlU LU 61VC ULCi ? iuui. J. mediately noted an improvement in her health and appearance. I gave her three bottles of Vinol, and from the good it has done her I can truly say it will do all you claim." This child's recovery was due to the combined action of the medicinal elements extracted from cods' livers, ?combined with the blood-making and strength-creating properties of tonic iron, .which are contained in Vinol. Vinol will build up and strengthen delicate children, old people and the weak, run-down and debilitated. We return the money in every case where it fails, HARMON DRUG COMPANY. Lexington, S. C. Macedonia School Closing. Macedonia school closed her doors Saturday, March 29, 1913, with a successful year's work, managed and controlled under the auspices of Miss Jessie Leitsie and Miss Agnes Kelsie, both prominent young ladies of the Dutch Fork, who are well thought of by everybody. After laboring in the school room for a number of months and giving to the school their best attention, Misses Leitsie and Kelsie, with all the trials and temptations that con front a school teacher, managed to get up an entertainment at Macedonia that has never before been surpassed in its history. The exercises consisted of speeches, dialogues and songs that will speak for the pupils who recited them as well as the.teachers who gave them, until and alter their bodies are moulded into clay. The stage upon which these exercises were recited was neatly decorated with all kinds of vines and flowers, among which sat a band of musicians who could, handle their Angers, wrists and arms without any trouble to keep the attention of the people between the exercises. At 1.15 o'clock dinner was served from a table with a length of 100 feet and width of 3 feat upon which was not a square inch that did not have a plate of nice fried chicken or boiled ham, with cakes, bread, pies between and upon the plates that contained the' meats. The nnmber of people that enjoyed the exercises and the table as well were among the hun/I r Afl c V4 *. VVI Wl * At 2.15 o'clock the band assembled back upon the stage and called the cyowd together again to listen to Prof. D. L. Shealy's address 011 The World's Greatest Call, who kept the attention of the people for a while. This being the last of the programme the crowd was dismissed by a few pieces of mnsic by the band. Fertilizing Young Cabbage. The proper fertilizer to use on cabbage is nitrate of soda. Scatter ~\-om a teaspoonful to a tablespoonful of this substance around each plant. It is not necessary to get it up right next to the stalk. Commence 2 to 4 inches out from the base of the stalk and scatter out as far as the spread of the leaves or a few inches beyond, and dig.in with a hoe or rake. Just dig in lightly a? though you were cultivating the plant. Be careful not to get any of the soda on the leaves.. It burns the leaves when it dissolves. It is best to apply it on a damp, moist day, although if will do all right to apply at any time.?Southern Farming, Atlanta, Ga. SISL'IIUIVIki * ( WARRANTED FOR ALL TIME.

There are some things I'm going to do When I get big like sister Sue. She's just a girl, yon know, but say, She has things mostly her own way. I'll use pa's knife, the sharpest blade, And never be one bit afraid. I'll paint the tubs and crocks and pails And pound the porch just full of nails. With rocks I'll hit the stable, "Crash!" And in the deepest puddles splash. I'll climb the highest tree in town, It'll be no use to scream "Comedown." A forty barrel gun I'll buy, Things around this place will have to fly. T'll cV> not a nnlar hpar vnn'l! qao! If I can find one up a tree. I'm going to do t^ese things some day, When I get big and have my way. Horrah! hurrah! There's Uncle Jack, Now for a ride upon his back: Gas Light in the Barn. I have as yet failed to find any light equal to acetylene gas; in fact, we are better pleased with it than with electric light. I fill the carbide tank according to the amount of light used every evening, which is about an ounce every three weeks three lights being used every evening. The ga9 tips require no care whatever; all that I do is to fill the carbide and waterjtank, and the plant is ready and to ere is no dirt connected with it in the house, writes J. WT. Meyer in the Southern Farming, Atlanta, Ga. Since installing this system I am so well pleased with it that I would certainly not be without it. I wish to make special mention of the ignitor. A number of firms do not agitate nor advise their use, yet I have thsse in my barn and find that the possibility of setting fire is greatly reduced. This does not necessitate the U9e of matches at all, since all that is necessary is to pull the cord or chain after the gas is turned on and it is ignited by an electric spark. Pay For Condemned Cattle. Recently the state veterinarian of Georgia has condemned and slaughtered a good many tuberculous cows in and around Atlanta. Tuberculous cattle should be slaughtered as soon as the disease is detected for a certainty. This is a hardship to many owners. But it is much better for a few to suffer temporarily through whole or partial loss of their property than for many to assnme risk of dis . 1 V. -T - - v I ... e?ae uiruuga urrnaiug impure mux. However, the correct remedy in this case is for the State to pay for all slaughtered tubercular cattle says the editor of Southern Farming of Atlanta. At the last meeting of the Georgia legislature, the state veterinarian and others made an effort to have such a law passed, but without success. The legislature meets again this summer, and this measure should be enacted. It is clearly up to those iuterested now, to insist that their representative support 9uch a bill, as those who have already grown cattle will see to it that such a. bill is introduced. If every person interested along this line will call on or write to his representative, and make it clear to him that he is expected to support such a measure, it will go through without any trouble. Southern Farming calls on every person interest to get behind this measure and make it a go.

Lutheran Joint Conference. The Lutheran Joint Conference which met in Bethlehem church near here closed yesterday. There are fifty-one churches belonging to this body. Thirty-one of these were represented by thirty-eight lay delegates. Fifteen of the 27 pastors were present, making a total representation of fifty-three out of a possibility of about one. The sermons were unusually good. xne opening scnnuu woo picuvucu uj the retiring president, Rev. J. ACromer, subject, "The Constraining Love of God." "The Efficacy of Baptism," was the subject of Saturday's sermon, preached by Rev. H. M. Brown. Rev. R. E. Livingston preached Sunday on "Justification by Faith." The local attendance was good, the church not holding the people on Sunday. The discussions were unusually good. Rev. E. J. Sox was asked to have his paper puplished, on "The Church, Why a Member." A round table was conducted by Rev; C. E. Weltuer, on "Modern Devices of Gambling." This was of more than ordinary interest. The various aspects of gambling was discussed in response to eleven questions. The Conference put itself squarely against all methods of gambling, such as is practical on the cotton and grain excOau^es on a large scale and at the card table, at church rafles, in punch boards and slot machines and the various methods practical at our fairs. The query box. opened on Saturday and conducted by Rev. S. C. Ballentine, was also a j source of much interest. Here ail ' kinds of subjects were asked and an- j swered, which held the interest of the large congregation present for more than an hour and a hail. TJie body win meet next at St. John's church, near Lexington, beginning on Thursday before the fifth Sunday in August next. This gives one more day for the discussions.? Leesville News-Advocate.
