Live stock dealers are not

at this season. This will mean
better times next fall. The mule

Every acre of land in the
South that can be cultivated
should be planted in eotton,
corn, peas, potatoes and other
crops. Not an acre should lie
idle this year. When half the
world is engaged in warfare is
the ti:pe, of all others, when a
neutral country should find
farming a paying industry.
We are glad to see the cotton
market on the upgrade, but we
hope the advance in price will
not do more harm than good.
If it makes the people forget the
lesson they have learned and
causes to be planted a large cotton
crop, this rise in price will
hinder more lhan it will help in
pulling the South out of the holtT

CHURCH NOTES
METHODIST PROTESTANT
J no. W, Quick, Pastor
Last Sunday we reorganized
Sunday school at Rose Hill.
Brother J. A. Turner was reelected
Superintendent. He has
served in this capacity for twenty
four years, anil we will say
without fear of contradiction
that no better superintendent has
ever served any school. All old
officers and teachers were re
elected. They all have given
efficient service and we feel that
we could not have done better
than retain them as they are all
well trained for their work. Before
beginning th i recitation of
the lesson the superintendent
asked all who would try to bring
someone to Christ this year to
hold up their hands, and it was
inspiring to see so many hands
go up. May the Lord help each
of us to keep our vow.
Remember our union prayer
service at thw- Presbyterian
church tonight at 7 o'clock.
Our first quarterly conference
for the year will be held at Rose
Hill tomorrow, Thursday, at 5
p. m. A full attendance is requested.
Our appointment for next
Sunday will be at Pageland at
11 o'clock. Communion service
after preaching. All deuomina-.
tions invited to be with us. We
are always glad to have you
worship with us.
BAPTIST, J. M. Sullivan. Pastor.
Last Friday afternoon the Wo
mans Missionary Society pulled
off the best and completes! sur
|jna?j we u?ive ever nau piayeu
on us.
It was on this wise: One after
noon we were asked by one of
the members if we would be at
home Friday afternoon? Of
course we thought that they
were coming io arrange their
program for the next quarterly
meeting of the Pageland Division
to be held with Providence
church in the near future, and
could nof do otherwise than
ili?
home.
At 4 o'clock they had not arrived.
Mrs. Sullivan having
company, we asked to be excused
that we might go to our study
saving as we departed to call
when the ladies arrived. Lo
and behold, before we had hardly
arranged for .real work, there
was a cry made, behold, ?not
i?:.t *
me unuegroom comein?out trie
children. We peeped out at the
window and wondered what it
meant. Soon we saw that they
were leaving the sidewalk and
headed for the front porch. Well
the only thing we knew to do
was tofgo down and meet them.
To say the least, we were so
overjoyed that we hlmost did
threaten to get among them and
kiss everyone of their smiling
faces, But we decided that it
would he too trying an ordeal for
their little constitutions inasmuch
as thcv had been so exceeding
kind to us. There we
stood looking and rejoicing as
they unloaded the cart and theii
little hands and arms of the
good things they had brought.
Reallv it was such a goodly
sight until our boy could not
keep from exclaiming, "Hard
times are all gone now, Papa."
Verily, verily, its true for a while
at least and we thank you one
and all. May God bless you.
We filled our first appointment
at Liberty Hill last Sunday
afternoon, enjoying the services
very much. Let us hope for a
good year

A countryman in Savannah
observed a gang of darkies
laboring on the streets, each
wearing a ball and chain. He
asked one why that ball was
chained to his leg. "To keep
people from stealing it," said the
darky; "heap of thieves about
here."

GOOD POINTS TO REMEMBER
When Culling Flock* Discard AM
Those Birds Noticed to Be Hanging
Around Roosting Room.
' Here are some points to remember,
when culling your flocks for unprofitable
specimens: Cull out all such,
which when entirely through molting I
for several weeks, are noticed to be
hanging around the roosting room In
the morning and all day long, cull out
all such with a weak constitution and
generally sickly appearance. A fowl
in the fall that shows that it has been
doing something the previous year Is
one to select to keep In your flock. A I
fowl with pale colored legs and worn
toenails was a good layer last year,
and the chances are that she will bo
a profitable hen for at least another
year. Keep her not only as a layer
but as a breeder. Cull out all early
molters and send to the market. The
latest and quickest molters are some
of the best laying hens in your flock
and will surely be profitable another
year. Keep them, and see to it that
they are fed well and kept In a warm
place when molting late.
Cool Ground Is Preferred.
A good many poultry keepers believe
that chickens that are not large
enough to rooBt are better off in coops
without floors where they sit on the
cool ground at night, provided the
ground Is kept clean by moving the
coops every day and well drained to
prevent dampness.
r Market
Surplus Hens.
It 1b a good plan to market any surplus
old hens before they begin tc
shed their feathers because they will
fatten better now.

KEEP POULTRY HOUSE CLEAN
During Summer Weather Lice and
Mites Multiply . Rapidly?Remove
All Litter From Floor.
Tho necessity of thoroughly clean"
in# the poultry house at this season
of the year Is obvious to all who give
the subject much thought. During
the summer the hot weather has
qultely likely added filth and disease
germs to those which already existed
and has assisted any lice and mltoe
that were present to multiply their
number rapidly. To put the fowls In
winter quarters fined with vermin,
disease germs and dirt is to 'invite
trouble before cold weather falrly'sets
In, and to kill the profit In advance.
The ceilings and wall should bo
thoroughly swept down to remove all
dust, dirt and cobwebs, and all litter
should be removed from the floors end
nest material from the nest boxes.
The wooden or cement floor Bhould be
scraped and sprinkled with lime. The
dirt floor should have at least two
Inches of the surface removed, unless
It has been done, and fresh sand put
on earlier.
The'interior of the house and all
equipments should be sprayed with
thin whitewash, forcing the liquid into
all qracks and creviceB. If the first
coat does not make the house look
bright and clean, put on- another as
soon as the first is dry, when you will .
have a building that is clean, sweet
and healthful for the fowls.
Pullets Develop Fast.
A lot of pullets which are given all
they will eat of *a variety of grain,
with oome meat food, will develop
faster and lay earlier and better than
those which are obliged to go hungry
occasionally.
