IDEAL WOOD PAVEMENTS MADE R~o( GUM WOOI Washing~ton. Oct. 4.-The blac tupelo gum trees, which find thei ideal home in the Dismal Swamp an other marshy places of the South Al * lantic and Gulf states, will probab] play an important part in solving t street pavement problem which ye: es the' officers of every municipalit: Experts who have experimnted wit the timber of this tree, which hitthe: to has beenr considered almost wort] less, say that it makes an ideal pa' ing block when properly preserved. A representative of a large woo< preserving company of. New Yor1 which makes a specialty of the mai ufacture of street paving blocks, he just left .Washington after a confe: ence with officers of the Forest Se: vice rewarding methods of wood pri servation. His company is now dea ing almost exclusively in black an tupelo gum and he is highly elate with the experiments which has been made. Wood is now considered the strong est kind of a factor among the me terials from which the ideal stre< pavement of the future will be mai ufaetured. It is practically noiseles and this quality is -very desirablei large cities where there is much tra: fie, When properly preserved ar laid, the best wood pavements al said to resist wear and tear as we as any other material now in use. Wood re. ?ived a bad reputation a block in this country when it we laid in various cities a number< years ago.

In the current issue of the Harts ville Messen;:'r Mr. D. R. C(oker, than A* 711H'n111 ;11 soill' al iaa s Ociober is here and -armers will soon be ready to harvest their corn. e The corn crop of the country is the best ever liade, owing to the favora ble seasons and the general adoption C11 of the Williamson plan. . The yield b however, is nothing like as good- a les it would be if every farmer had sys- off tematically selected his seed corn for several years past. , lur a The time to select seed corn is right ter S now and the place is in the field. Don't send your hands in. to the fields It to gather your corn until you have yourself gone through it and selected a enough seed for the next year's crop. Select only large low st ears on strong d stocky plants. Select ears from - plants that are properly spaced in _the rows rather than from plants that have zreat distanee, for seed should only be selected from plants that have grown under normal conditions. ~After your seed has been selected from the field go over the ears care- L fully and pick out a few of the finest. rTake only those which are well filled at butt and tip, which are not effect- F -ed by weevils and which have long y :rains. These few best ears should ebe planted in rows to themselves next spring and they will undoubtedly pro ~duee a seed that is superior to what. you now have. The balance of the -ears selected from the field should be U -used to plant the general crop next D vear; but no selection should be C made next year except form the rows D -planted .from the few best selected B: ears and if any one of these rows -shows a marked advance over the Sothers only ears from that row should be used to plant the seed patch the following year. - The tremendous import.anee of seedJ 1- eeton and plant breeding is not japreiated as it should be by the jfarmers of this section and, we ear etl ur e our readers to heed our advice and begin a system of selee tion this fail. Nothing that we know -Iof is surer, to pay big dividends on the time and trouble required. ,ME BRYAN COMING n TO SPARTANBURG dSpeaks Under Auspices of Wofford ~College Lyceum.--Great Nebras 1kan Will Again Visit the Pal metto State on October 18.
