Less Soldi Lat>t Year Than In 1009. According to figures compiled by Z. E.. Gramling, one of the local cot ton weighers, iihows that a total of 15,059 bales o? cotton was weighed; at the public scales at the.' local-plat form" during the year of 1910.'

Ukewise,-a portion of the 1910 -crop Of cotton will be sold In lOJLr^.^s there ' is some cotton being "held*- by fanners and xnerehanta in this nai-ia ''Phe' figures nhov that from Jaa. I, I 1910, to September 1, 2 910, whlea j was the cotton raised In. 1909, and other years, 2,270 bales were weighed and-sold here. From 8ept. i, 1910, to Jan. 1, 1911, which was the pe riod for- selling 1910 cotton crop, 1 2,7 89 bales was marketed here and weighed at the cotton yard scales. It is noted that from these figures that the amount of cotton weighed., ??nd marketed in this city during iixy I year 1910 is many thousand hales short, of. the amount marketed and, weighed in this city during 190 ).' Tbe amount of cotton weighed In | this city from Jan. 1, 1909, to'Sept.! 1, 1909, was 6.037 bales. Of this amount there was cotton from four' to twenty years eld. [ From Sept 1,1 1909, to Jan. 1, 1910, tbe amount of cotton weighed here amounted to ? 15,110. ; Besides the 15,059 bales weighed at the local platform during 1910,' there was about 1,000 bales of cotton j marketed ?h*t was not weighed at ?the local cotton, platform scales. About ,? 16.000 bales of cotton wa* sold In this city in 1.910, which is 4,000 short of the number of bal.*s sold here in 1909. About one-fourth of Orangeniirg county $ cotton crop is marketed In this city, hence, a~ cording to the above figures, '.Oranjje bnrg county raised 60,000 bal>s cf cotton during the year 1910. With, an average selling price of thirteen j cents per pound, and Orangeburg j county's crop has easily, brought that amount, the cotton crop for 1910 j represents $4.000,000. FELLED ALL POSITIONS.

Mamie Dew itt, daughter of D. J. T. Dewitt of neai Bowman died with,pneumonia. Just a.few days later, on the 23rd, the baby girl of Geb. Patrick, of near Reevesvllle, and a son-in-law of Mr. j Dewltti;died wlth:.the same dread dls-j ease.. Then on the 27th of the 6ame month Mrs". Patrick succumbed to' pneumonia. Thus making' three deaths in one family from the' same disease in less than two weeks. The fnneral services were all conducted by Rev. W. H. Gleaton, of Bowman, and the remains laid to rcap in the Thompson graveyard. The sympathy of the entire community goes out to the bereaved ones in their affliction." Want Law Changed. The Board of Township Commls Islonors seem to be of the opinion that the holding of inquests over people who die from violent deaths and other causes, where a physician Is not in attendance, costs the county too much, and suggests to the legis lative delegation from this county that they look into the matter with a view to remedying the matter. Un der the present law the coroner io paid an annual salary of $300, and Is required to hold all inquests within a radius of fifteen miles of this city. All other Inquests In the county are to be held by the magis trates in their respective districts, for which they are paid $6 per in quest Taken to the Hospital. ? Mr. J W. Barnes, of Cope, who I was severely injured about three months ago by an accident to the buggy In which he was riding, and who has suffered a' great deal sinco from a broken leg and sprained anklo. has been taken to a hospital In Columbia and put in care of a specialist for treatment. Since he was hurt Mr. BarneB has not been able to use the injured leg, but we ihope his treatment In Columbia will ! restore It to complete health and ; that he will suffer no further lncon i venience from it. Narrow Escape. Little Marion, the two year old 'daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. M. j Ritter, of Cope, had a narrow escape ! from a horrible death on Wednesday, 'while her mother was In the kitchen ? the child's cJress caught fire at the j fireplace.

A writer In the Burn) New Yorker, from which the picture shown here with is taken, says that every furro should be provided with one or mot goods sleds, and one built an shown In the drawing will prove very satis factory. It is easily built and sub stanttal, as there are no tenons to make nor mortises, both, of which re quire much labor and seriously weak en the sled. The frame of the sled is made of 4 by .4, excepting tbe blocks marked X. which are 4 by 0 by 10 Inches. Upon these blocks rest tbe erosspieces A A A. und upon these the npper part of the sled frame rests, all being bolted together with half HUO>T PAOU BXdED. , CFrora'the Rom? iiew\rcrtc?.} .< Hell holte.' Besides'' the bolts,spikes should be driven through the'blocko X to prevent their tomlag obould the bolts become loose. Next come the diagonal brace B and tbe crosspiece at the rear end of the sled-just bey hind the standards. The top ol the sled may, be floored ? over if desired. The tongue Is bolted lloosely on top of the front crossplece and braced with' chains or heavy ctmp Iron braces. Iron soles should be used If possible, and good ones are easily made of oM wagon tires. This sled, as descrltied and shown m diagrams, should give satisfactory service* but It may be made higher if desired.'thongh greater height is not needed unless to be used in stony or atumpy fields. Crojspiece? XXX mny be 2 by 6 instead of 4 by 4. when two bolts at each joint can be used and the diagonal brace B be dispensed with. The bottom of the sled frame Is nine feet l?ng. and tfce top from stand ard to standard is twelve "feet . . . Death of a Young Man. Mr. P. R. Braddy, son of. Mrs. Anna Braddy, died at the home of hia sister. Mrs. L. A. Bozard, near St. Mlatthews on Sunday night, after an illness of one week with pneu monia. Mr.. Braddy was on a visit to his sister when he was taken sick. Mr. Braddy, who was abont twenty one years of age, was a consistent member of Congaree Baptist church, and was highly esteemed by a large circle of relatives and friends. He Is survived by his mother, three brothers and five sisters, who are terribly bereaved by his death, but they have the satisfaction of know ing that he has only gone on before, and that when life's fitful fever is over with trem they will meet him again In tbe land where there Is no more sorrow, parting or pain.
