TWO WAREHOUSES ARE TAKEN OYER PROSPERITY AND LITTLE MOUNTAIN STORAGE ACCEPTED Commissioner MeLUur/n Describes Typ/cal Small Neighborhood Plant Kates of Insurance. The State, 15th. Two warehouses in Xewberrv county were accepted yesterday by John L. MciLaurin, State warehouse commissioner. The one at Little Mountain nas not been signed up yet, but will ho ripv-t wppk Both of these houses are of the emergency type, and the one at Prosperity, owned by A. G. Wise, has been formally transferred and tie paper signed. Senator McLaurin took A. W. Bollin with him as insurance inspector, so as to see exactly what the companies would do on this r.vne of house. The following information should be of interest and value to tlie farmers of the State, sly wing how cheaply cotton can be stored under the State warehouse plan and a receipt given which can be used as a collateral: The application blank shows an iron corrugated warehouse, 30 by 100, 12 feet between iloor and joists. The ap plication shows that the total cost of construction was $312. The cost of the corrugated iron was $237, and Mr. Wise said that the lumber, nails p.iid labor did not exceed $75. I; has a dooi in each end, and two doors in each side. It has been in use one week, has 200 bales of cotton, with a capacity of 600, and is so arranged that more sections can be added as needed. Senator McLaurin took it over at a nominal rent ot $1 per year, ana appointed A. Birge Wise manager, with a salary of $1 per annum. The charge for storage will be 20 cents per bale, out of whic^ the State will receive 3 cents per bale per month and the balance will go as rent to A. G. Wise, who built the house. Senator McLaurin appointed A. Birge Wise weigher and grfder for any cotton offered at any State warehouse in Newberry county. He is to charge o cents per bale for eatfh bale of cctton weighed and graded. Thus, so far as the operation is concerned it will be $1 per year. When it comes to labor, Mr. Wise will use his farm hands. The rate of insurance fixed by Hr. Bollin was $1.75 per $100 per year, and this in the form of an open policy ior t~e full capacity, with a report as cotton comes in, so that insurance is paid only on what is acutaily in the house. Senator McLaurin said that outside of the cost of the building, he figured it would cost Mr. Wise only $1.06 i year to store this cotton, including insurance and all ot'her expenses, per bale, or 8 2-3 cents per month. "Any three of four farmers can -,o in aid do the same thing, which is much better f an paying the freight to Columbia and SO cents per bale. / JO /-?V> osnaAiallr AvVion VU' li VVUU1U ering the superiority of a receipt from: the State of South Carolina, guaranteeing title, weigv.t, grade and delivery of the identical bale," said Mr. McLaurin. "Such paper is bound to win its way in t'.;e commercial world.'' THE RED ( ROSS SEAL COMMISSION OF SOUTH CAROLINA Columbia, Xov. 16.?The Red Cross Seal campaign in South Carolina has taken on new impetus, owing to t'ae .act that, as announced last week, a special anti-tuberculosis conference for the Sout':. is to ^e held in Atlanta, beginning November 30th. Vital statistics for the whole of South Carolina are not available, but from such figures as are at hand is shown a great need for anti-tuberculosis work throuhout the State. The national asVa.11' V Vi A lllpf YY"i A r? A aw.io-i.iUii in .>cw i ui i\ nas juoi uiauc public, through the State commission, :ts figures for South Carolina. From a partial church census it was found at the mortality rate from tubercuosis is 13 1-2 per cent. This is about three per cent higher t-!:an the averse for the United States. From this fact, both the approaching con erence n Atlanta and the 1914 campaign for elling Red Cross Seals become doubly 'mportant. The commission announces hat up to the present 70 agents 'have heen secured for 1914. " he Southern Railway Announces Spell Round Trtp Rates to Florence, S.

The negro remained in the Newfoerry j county jail several months after sentence had been passed and "his queer [actions" were attributed to the con! finement. He was brought to Columbia several weeks ago and placed in the asylum. i The negro was confined on the first floor in the negro maie ward at t<r.e ctsyium. James L. Thompson, M. D., first as| sistant physician at the hospital said yesterdav: i "In some manner the negro pried ! off the window facing after he had released bidiself of the restraint.

I '"The room," said Dr. Thompson, i i | i "was one of the safest in t?e build I ing, but when he got his restraints off, j {which was done by cutting them witn | a piece of tin, which he secured in some unknown way, he ipried the w'njdow guard open. He also pried off a i portion of the window facing and with this pried one of the bars to suc*a- an ! I extent that he made his escape i ' through the window to the yard, . I which was on a level witn tne-wmI daw and then his escape was eisy." Dr. Thompson said that every care ':.ad been taken by asylum officials to | guard the negro. Winter Gardens at School. 1.

Dig a trench 18 inches deep and about ten inches wide.1 Fill in wit'!", six inches of well rotted manure, and over that put three inch es of good garden soil. Sow the peas and cover with two inches of soil. As the peas grow fill in the soil around them, a little at a time. Keep filling in until the trench is level.
