The Board wrestled with the knotty problem of tbe equalization of real estate values for several days and finally had to give it up as a bad job, and left values as fixed by County Hoards, memorializing the Legislature, however, to pass laws that will make it possible to carry out the purpose of the Act relatiug to equaliza tion. Then the values of cotton mills, oil milis, etc., were passed upon aH as certained by tbe Board, put ou a ?10 per cent basis of valuation, and left at that. The full valuation as fixed by the Board on cotton mill property In Ander son County Is as follows : Anderson Cotton Mills.? 041,050 Cox Manufacturing Co. 70,000 Orr Cotton Mills. 400,000 Riverside Manufacturing ( o. so.OOii Fendleton Manufacturing Co. 50,000 Belton Cotton MUIb. 400,000 Pelzer Manufacturing Co. 1,000,000 Piedmont Manufacturing Co. 1,320,000 Williamatou Cotton Mills.Not lixed The valuation on the Cotton Heed Oil Mills in this County was lixed as follows: Anderson Oil Mill.f22,O00 Excelsior Oil Mill. 22,000 Farmers' Oil Mill. 25,000 Pendleton Oil Mill. 10,000 Honia Path Oil Mill. 10,000 Peb.erOll Mill. 22,0<m> WlUlamston Oil Mill. l l.ouo Rice Bros., Belton.No return Tbe valuation on tbe plant of tbe An derson Fertilizer Co. was lixed at?mu,^)0. Tbe real problem was struck by the committee on percentage in changing tbe real estate calculations. Tbe committee figured on a 70 per cent basis. In Ander son County this basis would mean an in crease of 25 per cent, and it would have made an Increase In at least two thirds of tbe other counties of tbe State. After much discussion the following resolutions wero ottered by I). Aaron Jeer, Anderson County's representative on the fctate B jard, no a substitute for tbe report of tho committee on percentage at i| were adopted by a vote of '21 to 12: (o view of ibe fact that tho reports on w.iti h MUt.uu bas to bo taken are some what incomplete, ami in view of tho further facta that personal property, hank stock and railroad properly are not avail able for "reassessment this year, and tbe assessments upon per.-onal property, bank stock aud railroad property has linsUy been fixed for this year and under the law cannot be affected by any basis of assessment agreed upon at this meet ing of tho State Board, be it Kesolved, That this Board accept all returns of the real estate as adopted by the county boards of equalization. 2nd. That tbe report on cottou mills be accepted and that tbe valuation as glveu by the committee be adopted, and that tbe percentage for assessment tor cotton mil' property be fixed at 00 per cent as la?t year. 3rd. That tbe report of the committee on cotton seed oil mills as io value, be adopted, and that do per cent of thtit vaiuo, as last year, be adopted as the basis of taxation. 4'.h. That the report of the committee on fertilizer factories be adopted as the basis of valuation, and mat 00 per cent of tbe values be used as the basis of assess ment for taxation as last year. Resolved, That this Board respectfully urge the general assembly to provide at its next session some plan by which a l classes of property, including real estate, personal property, mills, bank stock, railroad property and all other classes of taxable property, can be reached at one time, and so tbat the various classes of property sball not be variously atlected by tbe action of any State Board, as would bo tbe case if this board adopted tbe70 per cent bat 1b upor real estate aud textile mills, and was. unable to reach other classes of property already finally assess ed for the year. All of tbe reports were agreed to and tbe 00 per cent basis ratified by tbe Board upon tbe figures agreed. This basis will result in an increase of 10 per cent en real estate In Anderson County. A Pleasant Day. Mr. Editor: On Saturday, July 20tb, a jolly crowd of pleKntckers mot at tue country home of P. B. Gentry. It was a gathering of kindred, aud quite early the merry aunts, uucles and cousins began to arrive. Mr. Gentry s home is a few miles from the city, and is centrally situated for the relatives. Very soon ono side of the grove was o? vered with vebl oles and the other with young people, who were in the best of spirits. Tbe occasion was in honor of Mrs. Martha Hall, who is here from Oeorgla visiting. It was her sixtieth blrthdav. Anderson was her girlhood home but she has been away many yearr. In all, sixty-four relatives and a few friends were present to wish for the guest many more happy returns of tbe day. Each one enjoyed the day throughout. Promptly at 12 o'clock a long table was made in the- shade of tbe obka aud spread all over with everything good to eat Cold lemonade and uioe, country water melons were furnUhed in abundance. Mrs. Hall is tbe oldest daughter of Robert Kevr. Her brothers and ?isters are A. C. Keys, E. B Keys, R. A. Ke>s, Mrs. James L?. Kay and Mrs. P. B. Gen try, ail of Anderson County, and Mrs. J. M. Thompson, of Birminutjam, Ala. All of them were prese't wuu their families except one brotb< r, though his family was represented, aud Mrs. ihouipson. M rs. Hall said bur cup of happiness was almost full when nlie wa<? tod that "Aunt' H-tuuah hid come lo m'o ln-r. ftuntio is a good, old slave negro w bo be longed to Mrs. Hal r~, rat tit-r and grand father. S?e was the oldett person at the reu mon. Wheu tbe sun was lowering in tbe west "Kood-bjo" was .aid aud a pleasant day was ended. Guest. The Hopewell Meeting. Concentration of purpose, effort and prayers on the part of both pastor aud people will explain tho wonderful suc cess which attended the revival ser vices at Hopewell Church last week. Pastor O. J. Copeland had the sympa thy and hearty support of tho Church from the very first, and ns a result both he and the Church rejoice in the knowledge of added strength and zeal. The preaching was done by the pas tor and was powerful and convincing as well as easily intelligible and was characterized by a power not of man, a proof not only of Divine approval but of Divine co-operation^ When such forces are at work, re sults cannot fail to obtain, and not only the Church but the entire com mui try, has been stimulated by tho met '?ix to a higher Christian living. A .... .?her were added to the Church koth b. letter and experience, and the cause o Christin our community has made n tug stride forward. i llope well Baptist Cha/ch is today in ihe best condition ?he has ever been. July 31. 11. I lie Salstda Associalion. ThuSaluda Baptist Association, held at Mountain Creek Church Tuesday. Wednesday and Thursday of last week, was one ol the most enjoyable and largely attended occasions held in this county loi years It was a Bap tist occasion, hut there were present hundreds ot visitors representing all denominations, and, except the neces sary routine ot church work in the business meetings, there was a total obliteration of denominational lines. The aggregate attendance during tho three days was not less tiian 3,500, all of whom were made welcome,and, like the multitude, were fed and many bas kets of fragments were left. Seven miles southwest of Anderson, on tlie Holland's Ferry road, is Moun tain Creek Church. It is beautifully situated at the foot of Little Mountain, with an abundance of shade from mas siv?* oaks. Across the road from the church is a small frame school house, and mar this there was constructed for this occasion an immense arbor, where religions services were held morning and afternoon. The business meetings were held in the church. The Ladies' Missionary .Society held its meetings in the school building. At no time could more than one-half the crowd be scateil in the buildings and arbor, ami those not liuding seats either clustered about the meeting in which they found gleutest interest, or wandering over the ?rounds meeting old friends and making new acquaintances. There was about this large gathering nu atmos phere of welcome and good fellowship Which made every one happy. There were present 130 delegates representing 41 churches. J. L. Trib ble, was elected Moderator of the Association, and He v. W. W. Leathers and S. P. T?te clerk and assistant clerk, respectively. , ruminent among those present were Dr. A. P. Montague, re tiring President ot Furman University, Kcv. A. T. Jamison, of the Connie Maxwell orphanage, Dr. Harvey Hatcher, of Atlanta. Rev. It. H. Bur riss, formerly of tbis county but now oi Virginia, Rev. K. C. Jones, Presi dent of the Greenville Female College; Rev. J.B. Collier, of Georgia, and oth ers. Wednesday was the "big day" of the Association. No less than 2,500 people were in attendance. The most inter esting feature of the business meeting this day was an address on education by Dr. Montague. It was a learned discourse, most excellently prepared and delivered. His familiarity with and appreciation cit the great authors, a part of whose accomplishments and styles were made to embellish his ad dress, ileliirhted his appreciative hear ers, as did also the bints and sugges tions, culled from experience and wis dom, on education in general. The sermon at the arbor Wednesday morning by Kev. K. H. Burriss was highly instructive and delivered in a plain." manly stylo, which never fails tob?* appreciated. Mr. Burriss is the, son of the late Levy Burriss and Mrs. Susan. Burriss, who survives. The his tory of this family is closely linked with the history of Mountain Creek Church. Three generations at le.nst of the family have worshiped hen.1, and death cume to Levy Burriss, father of Kev. U. II. Burriss, while attending service in this Church?a realization of a hope he had long entertaiued and often expressed. All of the services during the three days were instructive atid entertaining, but waut of spnee prevents details. The prominent families of this Church, who so generously provided something good to eat and barrels of pure water for the mote than 5.000 people attending the Association, and who made it a point to let no one go unprovided for, have shown a hospi tality which has never been and can never he surpassed. The Association next year will be held at Salem Church, where the first Asso ciation was organized in 1803. This will be the centeuuial celebration of the As sociation, and will most certainly boa notable event. ijeatli of a Good Citizen. Mr. Charles S.

Some Valuable Suggestions and How to Get Satisfactory Results. No Need of Having Dyspepsia. , Most physicians, especially In the northern Unltea States, say that fried food is responsible for most of the dys pepBla, especially In the south, where fryirr* Is most prevalent. Thic is no doubt true, in a broad and average way. but It Is not necessary that It should be true. Too much grease of any kind, and in any way, is cer tainly bad for the digestion; but the conclusion must not be too hastily reached that fried food Is necessarily greasy. Grease for cooking should be looked upon merely as ns a medium for communicating a high degree of heat. It is not usually possible to cook things In water to a higher temperature than 212 degrees, and hence in many cases it Is necessary to cook meats, etc., a long while at this temperature to get them done. But it Is easily possible to cook things equally well done in grease In a much shorter time, on account of the higher temperature that may be reached?sometimes 300 to 400 degrees. The true way to cook In grease is to get it very hot before Introducing the meat or other article. When It is dropped In the higher degree of heat immediately chars the outer surface and closes the pores, so that the grease cannot get inside. It is important to keep the heat up, and not to put the articles into the grease so fast as to lower the temperature. When done, they should be immediately removed and laid on u cloth to absorb the ad hering grease. Many cooks take a frying pan off tho Are with the eggs or meat in it, all cooked, and leave it so until served. This is the next best way to let the grease soak through to the centre. The very best way to soak the grease in. and the very best way to promote dyspepsia is to put the ar ticles in the frying pan to cook when the grease is not hot enough. Frying is generally a most wasteful manner of cooking, for the reason that so much of the grease is thrown away after the article is cooked. This is gen erally unnecessary. If the frying has been properly done, the greuse has not taken up much from the article cooked. The grease may be poured from the frying pan into a vessel of hot water, when most of the foreign matter will settle and the pure grease will float, after somewhat washing Itself in the water. It may then be used again and again with the best results. There is naturally a smell from any frying grease. In Europe, where many kinds of grease and oils are used for frying, people become accustomed to the different smells, and do not mind them. In this country all are accus tomed to the ameli of frying hog lard, when it was first proposed to cook with cotton oil the new smell was ob Jectionable, especially the smeli of badly .refined oil. and thus there grew a prejudice against its use. Another caus? for bad results with the oil was the fact that often times the cook would not wait for the oil to get hot enough before putting it in tho articles. When using inrd. the cook would natur ally wait for It to melt, and it would ?et hot without provoking impatience. But the oil looks ready when it Is first put in the frying nan. and there Is a temptation to use it too soon. There has been much steady work done by those who make cooking compounds from cott.-n oil. with a view to reducing or disguising the smell. The result has been most gratifying. There are sev eral concerns making a specialty of oil retlned for use in cooking, without further manipulation. The Wesson Pro cess company of Savannah, Ga.. has been very successful in this line and will be glad to mall cook books. - There arc also a number of highly satisfactory cooking greases made from cotton oil and beef fat. such as "Palmatena" and "Snow Drift." both of which products are extensively manufactured by the Southern Cotton Oil Company of the Carolinas and Georgia at their works in Savannah. They ore both high class and reliable products in which the pure cotton seed oil is used and they resemble lard in appearance and results, but are more satisfactory and healthy, and which are superior to hog lard from every point of view. That they are much more healthful there con be no ?jSfet. A Physician Healed Dr Geo.
