.i al Ai fu me Entered at the Postoffice at New berry, S. C., as 2nd class matter. E. H. AULL, EDITOR. Tuesday, June 20, 1911. Hon. William Jennings Bryan, in an interview given out Sunday in Co lumbia, says that it is too early in the game to be selecting presidential candidates, and in this we agree with Mr. Bryan. Mr. Bryan is without question the foremost American private citizen to day, but we submit he is mistaken when he intimates that Governor Jud son Harmon is a back number. Several years ago Senator Pettus, of Alabama, who was then past three score and ten, asked the endorsement of Senator Pugh for some Federal ap pointment, and Senator Pugh replied that he would be delighted to endorse his friend, but he was too old for the job. This reply incensed thfe old gen tleman, and he determined to enter the rade and defeat Senator Pugh for the senate, which he did. YOUNG SPARKS AND HIS YAWN. The next time the Columbia State people send a man up here to get news, we hope they will send some one who will correctly state the facts. The State man who was here Tuesday night made. a botch, intentionaP, or otherwise, of the incident~ in connec tion with the awarding of the diplo me True, his story was not pub lished in the State, but- it was gent out from Colum1fia to the .Spartanburg Herald, over the name of "Joe Sparks," who is well known as a repoiter for the State. This young man ought to get his facts' straight. Dr. Joimson is the last man in the world who.would have countenanced1 any discourtesy to the goyernof ot! South Carolina, anid. it, is a fact that} no such protest was lodged with President Johnson sby the gra'duates, or withi any other officer of the col- Il lege.-Rock Hill Record. Just what we said last issue. Wel' did not know who the xeporter -was who sent out the news froni Winthrop * in regard to the governor,, but It is unfortunate that any reporter .would 'I manufacture news of. this character. a * The reporter should be careful of his a fa-ets. -It seems that the entire istory was manufactured without any foun dation in fact. . We would .like., to suggest ',to the I board of penitentiary directors that the best use to wich they could put * the three hundred convicts - which j 'a've been in the .hosiery mill would F be to build a good highway across the I State, and -then anjother highway across the State. They mighrt start first and build the road from Colum- J bia to Greenville via Newberr3r andI .A Laurens and when thai is 'completed they could start at Columbia again and- .extend the road 'to -Charleston, then -they could build a road from lj Charlotte to Augusta via Columbia. q Three hundred convicts properly g worked under propier direction coulde build jhese roads in a very short timed and it would be the best possible use to which their labor could be put. i We desire to call attention to the n fact tlhat all subscriptions expire eith er on tAe 1st or the 15th of the month' t and those who do not renew, or notifyc the publisher, will be taken from thejt] list after a few days time, so if you do not desire to miss any copies of thei paper, please send in your renewal promptly.

Magistrate J. C. Sample had five negroes and one white man before him Monday morning on the charge of gambling on Sunday. They were playing cards at the sub-station of the Southern Power company. They pleaded guilty and Magistrate 'Sam ple colleted from each of the I negroes $5.00, and from the white man $35. His usual fee for a white man, who is caught gambling with negroes is $50, but he allowed him in this case a discount of $15 for pleading guilty. * * * * * * * * * * SOCIAL S * * * * - * * * * * A miscellaneous shower was given by Miss Etta and Hattie Shelley Mon lay afternon in honor of Miss Euna %Iae Davenport.

'C "I had a wealthy client who died a hile ago," said Senator .John Sharp, Tilliams. "He left his whole fortune h his only son, with mhe as executor d Ethe estate. iT "Now h~ ha4 kept this young man,: ri who was just turned 21, in pretty close leash during his youth and it was with eyes bulging with expec tancy of a good, far flung fling that the son called on me a few days after the funeral to learn when he was coming into his kingdom. "'I haven't qualified as executor yet, Bob,' I told him, 'but come around in a week or so and you can get what you want.' "Promptly on the dot Bob turned up. 4fThe rperiod for advertising for claims against the est'ate will not ex pire for a fortnight yet,' I told him this time, 'so I can not legally pay you anything until then. Drop in in a couple of weeks and I'll fix you out' "Bob swallowed his disappointment and took his departure. At the end of a fortnight he promptly appeared again. "'Sorry to disappoint you a third time, Bob,' I said, 'but there have been some purely formal claims filed against the estate that can not be dis posed of until next month's term of court. If you'll call after that you can get all the cash you want, but I really lon't see my way clear to pay out any thing until these matters are disposed )f. Come back in a month and it will )e all right then.' "Bob moved slowly to the door. With his hand on the knob he turned .o me: "'Mr. Williams,' he said sadly, 'do rou know sometimes I'm right sorry -he old man died!'"-'New York Sun. WHERE THE COTTON GOES. WVhy There is No Prese6t Danger of Over Production. dharlotte Observer. As an instructive article which it hinks has no.t had the publicity de ;erved, Cotton and Cotton Oil News -eprints a review of the cotton staple's iltimate uses, prepared about a year Lnd a half ago y Mr. C. T. Reviere, if 'New York. Cotton today, rightly J-serves -this writer, plays a greatet iart in industrial developn'ent than ny other commodity except steel. Vithout cotton -the mere stopp'age of p)indbels and looms would be almost trifle in comparison with* the para-' irsis visited upon countless other' in ustries. Some of these industries iid the cotton- manufactures which btey absolutely require are named.J 'The raillroads of thie world, for ex mple, are among the largest consum r's of cotton. From 'the air-brake ose, whose basis is coitton duck, -to ie "leather,'' or plush, seats, cotton onstitutes an absolute need. .The:. ailroads and trolley lines of the Unit d States alone .require cotton cloth stimated ' o represeit a quarter of million bales. Cottont required inL pholstering automobiles and as the asis of tires is estimated to repre-' ant 325,000 bales. In harvesting and iarketing this country's great cereal rops many millions of ya-rds of cot mf duck must be used-about fifty iillions for the annual output of new lachines-the International Harves er company being the 'world's larg st single contractor for cotton goods. or can electricity, the most powerful gent known, get along without 'cot-* n to insulate its wiies; sales in the ew York market -alone are about,four. undred thousand pounds of 'yarn, reekly to the electrical industry. imilarly cotton, clcith is required for rowing tobacco ider . shade, for hipping sugar, salt, and flour, for tining coal, for tairpaulins to be used i the' tropics, for the outer layer of . sbestos coverings plabed upon ex osed sriam and hot water pipes in re-proof construction, for modern nprovements upon wall paper, for . taking pottery and cement, for coin ags, for driers' in paper mills, for agon tops, cushions, etc., for filter ig 011s, for the basis of ruibimr belt iand all kind3s ci rubb: hcre. In every one of .these industries the ~quirements a.,nount to raillions of zrds annually, and there are numer us other industries besides whe te requirements .-un high. The avies anid merchant vessels of th orld use more cotton cloth 'tha:i tey did wheni sails furnished the mo ve power. So vne see that ; o'efn ould be esseitia' on a huge seale to odern civilization if it were not us i for clothing, or even for house trnishings at all. Aside from civilian >nsumptiorq, thiere are the service 2iforms of the airmies of the world, mnsisting of 'khaki cotton cloth or )mething similar. Varied dema:nd like this quite ex !ains why raw cotton is high and nds to go higher. It hardly toucles le reasons why cotton yarns and; oth are low, for they are low only~ relation to thw raw cotton u~sed. nt it does afford much ground for )pe that an industry for whose pro icts such a broad and ever-broaden g demanC exists can not remain so ously out of equilibrium very long. I * * * * * * * * * *** * ** ** * * * PEACH TREE BORER. * * * Clemson Extension Work-Arti * cle 46. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * In order to combat this insect with ithe least labor and iexpense it is nec essary to understand two points in its life history and these points are fully explained in this article. The full grown insect, a beautiful clear-winged moth, lays its eggs in fall on the trunks of the peach trees at the surface of the soil. The worms hatching from these eggs bore into 'the bark and these worms are the bor ers. When full grown -they come out of the tree into the soil to change to a resting stage or pupa. These pupae occur very close to the tree, about one inch below the. surface of the soil. A few stragglers may occur two to three inches from the tree. These pupae later change to the beautiful clear winged moths mentioned above and which lay the eggs for the next, gen eration. There is only one generation each year. The important points for us to know are, -the time these insects come I out of the trees into the ground, also the time at which all the eggs have been laid. Knowing these two points we can then combat the pest inLelli -gently. The worms begin to come out into the ground on July 1. More come out each day, the greatest number coming out.' August 2 and on September 2 they are all out. The full grown iniects appear July 20, the greatest number occurring on August 22. On September 20 all have appeared to lay their )eggs except a few stragglers. October. 15 all the eggs have hatched and gone into the outer bark. S.Pull up the earth around Ahe base bf the ,tree eight inches high on or before July 10. This buries the.papae and very few months emerging tere fi'om will be able to reach the surface. If there are infested - trees in the neighborhood that were not mounded, moths will come in from such orch ards and lay eggs. These eggs are laid on the bark at the surface of the soil. .The mounds are taken down .October 15, and if any eggs were laid, they will be eight in ches high on thie trunk where the worme can be easily located, and not in the crown below the 'soil. There fore, mound the peach trees eight in chief~ between July 1 ahid 10. Take down the . mounds October 25. If your neighbors do not do it, then you will have moths come in from the outside and lay leggs. Walk through the orchards November 15, a:t ;which time the worms are in the outer -bark about' eight inches 'high an'd can be easily located by their castings. They can then. be easily tak'en off with a knife. Do not: depend on your knife, but urge your, neighbors to mnouni1 just like you have done. For further particulars Write us. Prof., A. F.
