She was a faithful member of Antioch Baptist church and was highly respected by all who knew her. She was buried May 26th in the presence of a host of relatives and friends. ^ * ?~ r one was tasen witn a spou ui typhoid fever and all that loving hearts and kind hands could do were done for her. On Sunday, May 25th, her gentle spirit took its flight to the land beyond the sunset's radiant gleam and no doubt her spirit is now resting in the sunshine of Him who once said, "I came to seek and to save that which is lost."

Oil Inspection, Plans are being perfected by the state department of agriculture for the enforcement of the oil inspection act. Inspectors will be appointed at an earlj* date by Commissioner Watson. The act goes into effect July 1. The purposes of the act are: To provide the people of the 9tate with satisfactory illuminating oil}-8, gasoline and power oils. To provide for a proper inspection and scientific testing ot tnese products with as little annoyance to the trade as possible. To provide for a vigorous and active | enforcement of the provisions of the j law and methods for prosecution of violators. * - ? Take Plenty of Time fo Eat. There is a saying that "Rapid eating is slow suicide." If you have formed the habit of eating too rapidly you are most likely suffering from indigestion or constipation, which will result eventually in serious illness unless corrected. Digestion begins in the mouth. Food should be thoroughly masticated. Then when you have a fullness of the stomach or feel dull and stnpid after eating, take one of Chamberlain's Tablets. Many severe cases of stomach trouble and constipation have been cured by the use of these tablets. Tbey are easy tr> take and most agreeable in effect. For sale by all Dealers. adv. % Keep Trying.

The coward in the conflict Gives up at first defeat; If once repulsed, his courage Lies shattered at his feet.

The busy season with tbe farmers i< j j over with down here. Shipments of watermelons that left Wildwood will reach fifty car leads or more, while the shipment of tomatoes was a little short on account of the dry weather. The principal shipper of watermelons was Mr. H. J. Nichols, a former South Carolinian, while Mr. W. D. Jarrel, a Georgian, shipped the majority of the tomatoes. Buyers of fruit9 and vegetables have been plentiful, but the farmers were not ready sellers. Gee, whiz! What a cold spell for June. It almost frosted even down here in Florida on the ll-12th.

HOME BREEDING IS URGED Cattle Bought For Big Marts.?Many I Head Shipped Out of This Section.?Traffic is Deplored. Columbia.?Special agents of the service in South Carolina have received a letter from Bradford Knapp, in charge at Washington of the farmers' co-operative demonstration w.ork, in which recent heavy shipments of cattle from this section to packing centres is deplored and the suggestion made that the practice be discon unueu, mat me campaigns ror eradication of the tick he prosecuted vigorously and that pure bred bulls be bought; all this to the end that an important live stock raising industry may be built up here. Mr. Knapp directs the attention of his agents to a warning on the subject issued by the animal husbandry division of the federal department of agriculture. His letter in part follows: "To The Agents: Your special attention ie called to the attached statement, prepared and published by the animal husbandry division of the bureau of animal industry, United States department of agriculture. "We have all of us been working very hard to teach the Southern farmer that he could produce his own feed and support a reasonable live stock industrv. A reasonable and steadv ! growth in that direction has been ap- 1 parent. "The present menace to the cattle j industry in the South is a serious one. j The Southern farmer does not appre- J j ciate this nation-wide problem of ! beef production, and I fear our farm- j ers are letting: their cows and heif- j ers go at prices which they may re- j gret in the near future. As pointed , out hy the bureau of animal husban- i dry, if the Western farmer can afford J to pay a good price for your cow, or j heifer and transport it to the Western plains for breeding purposes. such an j animal is too Valuable for the farmer ' to part with. * "To build a sound and enduring ag- J riculture in the south we must nave i i animal industry*. We can feed cattle I as cheaply as they can in the West. I Let them hare your reeding stock if they pay you a good price for them, but do not sell your breeding stock, for any price." Development of Agriculture. Probably the most important step ever taken toward the definite do- j veiopmer.t of the agricultural interest I of Georgetown county was the action taken by the Chamber of Commerce in a meeting at Georgetown, when the proposition of a representative 01 the United oiaies government to place a farm demonstrator at work in this county, was taken up. W. W. Long and L. L. Baker, both connected with the United States department j of agriculture, came here in the in- I terest of this movement, and Mr. I Lons: Dlaced the proposition before | the meeting, which was that the gov- I ernment would secure a first class I man and pay at least $800 for his I salary if the Chamber of Commerce I would guarantee the balance, $700. and, as stated, the proposition was promptly accepted and a contract entered into to cover a period of two i years from August 1. ?
