Epperson, aged 64 years. 'The deceased was well known in this ,county. The government's estimate of the cotton crop is 15,000,000 bales. This does not mean low price cotton, because the demand is for more than this number of bales. The board of registration is in ses sion this week, and quite a number who are interested in the H 0 m e Branch sch'ool election were supplied with certificates.

There is no reason why THE TIvEs should not have a nice news letter from every section of the county. Correspon dents send them in, and get them here not later than Mondays. A game of base ball at Summerton yesterday between DuRant and Sum merton resulted ir, a victory for Du Rant by a score of 4 to 2. The DuRant team has been very successful this season. On account of the electric storm last Thursday evening the people of this town had to forgo the pleasure of hear ing Mrs. Florence Ewell Atkins, of Nashville, who was to have delivered an address in the Methodist church. A sample of onions raised and brought to town by Mr. R.thven Plowden dem onstrates clearly the foolishness of sending abroad for onions. Mr. Plow den's onions are as ine as any which have been brought to this market from the West Indies or California. Mr. H. H Bradbamr was installed as Postmaster at Manning last Friday morning. Messrs. F. B. Moffett and W. E. Cuttino have been retained as clerks. With these two experienced young men to assist there is every reason for the public to feel assured it will have efti cient service. There was quite a long drawn out hearing before the County Board of Education last Saturday about the lo cation of a school house in the DuRaut section, and on the question of organiz ing a separate school district, resulting in a decision against the contention for both the change of location and the new district. Do not fail to attend the Farmer's In stitutes at Summerton and Sardinia on the 13th and 14th. Snmmerton on the 13th and the Sardinia picnic grounds on the 14th. It has been arranged that several lectures will be given by gov ernment experts, and by Clemson Col leze Professors. There should be a large attendance at both places. Again we must direct attention to the matter of sending communications to The Times for publication that are' not accompanied with the name of the writer. we have a number of times re minded the writers of such communica tions that they are wasting their time, as we will not publish a communica tion unaccompanied by the writer's name. Messrs. Roy McFaddin and Oscar Garland, of Sardinia, left last week to try their fortunes in South Dakota, where they hope to-zet in on the ground floor when the -nment opens up the lands for se: -. Both of these young men art s. .g and vigorous. with a good farming knowledge; if given a chance we predict success for them. Mr. A. Abrams returned last Friday from the northern markets where he had been to purchase his fall stock, and when it arrives THE TIMES readers will hear from him. While on his way home he stopped over in Washington and was in the fearful storm which did so much havoc in the beautiful city. It is inter esting to bear him tell of his exper iences and his obseryations during and after the storm. Rev. S. A. Nettles in the Christian Advocate has on his war paint to ex terminate the present fashion in woman's dress. He says in part: "Really, we believe it would be mor ally far better for the women to follow the custom of maaiy African tribes, who are robed in nothing more than beads of perspiration, than to wear these suggestive dresses that many are now adorning their bodies with. The tomato clubs which have beeo organized by the young ladies in other counties are not only successful but in many instances they have turned out a source of profit. We should like for the young ladies in this county to take old of the enterprise. If there is a disposition shown to have these clubs in this county, is can be arranged to have a demonstrator to visit the several sections to give instructions. The attention of The Times readers is directed to tbe advertisement of the Powden Hardware 'Company in this issue. They get their fencing by the car load, and they always carrv. every thing in the hardware line, besides they handle a fine line of cook stoves and ranges, and all kinds of kitchen utensils, crockery, tableware and all manner of household goods. When in need of anything usually carried in a hardware store they have it, and give prompt attention. The Times editor has received a let lee from Mr. A. A. Richardson, chief game warden, asking him to suggest a suitable person for the position of game warden for this county, said officer to be paid for his services upon a commis sion basis. He has not yet replied to Mr. Richardson for the reason that he has no idea who to suggest for the place, but if there is a man in the county who would care for it, he would suggest tbat he communicate with Mr Richardson whose address is Columbia. Manning is coming into her o wn as a tobacco market. Every day quanti ties of the golden weed oomes here, drawn not only from territory conced edl to be our own, but from parts of our county and neighboring ones, which by right of location belong to otber markets. All the farmers are highly pleased, and justly so. Yesterday at one warehouse alone. Clark and Coth ran's, there were sold 17.032 pounds for $2631 91, making the remarka bly high average, for the entire sale, ofI 15+ cents per pound. A Farmer's Advice. Davis Station, S. C., August 1st, 1913. Editor Manning Times. Manning, S. C. Dear Sir:--This letter to you is for the purpose of calling the attention of the farmers to one very important mat ter which has caused me considerable trouble, annoyance andloss when gin ning and marketing my cotton. Every farmer knows that the cotton buyers do not buy cotton for pleasure or health but are in the business for the money, they buy it just as cheap as they can, sample as heavy as you wiil allow, and call your attention to any trash, colored or stained cotton and pay you according to the poorest grade that can be found in the bale, if gin cut you just give it to them. Some of us are very careful when picking or having it picked, no wet cot ton or trash allowed, others do not care. and we do not like to have gined cut, trashy and stained cotton mixed in a nice clean bale. Now the only remedy I see is for every farmer to request his giner to leave no roll in thbe gins, then every man will get his own cotton and seed. I have often been compelled to take from $2.50 to $5 00 a bale less on account of bad cotton getting in the bale from the wagon just ahead of me at the gin besides the trouble to save seed to plarnt or sell especially if it is blight proof. I see the cotton mills are going to pay a great deal less for long staple if there is any short staple in the bale, be there ever so iittle, and also if there is any long staple in the short staple bale, it gives lots of trouble when it is spun. Now let every farmer this Fall de mand of his giner that no roll be left in gin and see that the cotton buyers sam ple light and not take a trip to the mountains next summer on the samplles he takes out of our bales. IIf the ginners will not do it we can easily get a law passed to compel them Cotton Marketing. It seems as if there is a great deal of dissatisfaction in the condition of pack ing and sampling the cotton crops of the South, and. according to the figures presented, and my own observation of cotton on the market, there is a tre mendous waste in the handling and poor packing of it, and it's all from the voor method we have. I see farmers every year with cotton tbrown around their yards on 2x4s for months in all kinds of weather. and some of the bales that were originally packed in second-hand baggin2 was en tirely gone. I don't see how the buyer can handle cotton put on the market in that condition. From years of experience as a ginner and farmer, I would like to make a few suggestions to the cotton growers and ginners of the South. My plan would be. something like this: To require gin ners to reduce their press boxes to measure 18x36 inches: that would give you a bale with 9 cubic feet with a des tiny of 27 to 30 pounds to the foot,. the bale to weigh from 250 to 300 pounds. The press of the present size can be changed for about $10, and can be done by any workman. With the present power and strength of the press, you could put up a better bale with less wear and tear of your machinery. To wrap that bale you should use good burlap, or a coarse cot ton cloth would be better; it would help the South to consume the cotton crop. You should cover the cotton on all sides, and use a No. 10 galvanized wire for ties. The ginner shiould be able to grade cotton as it comes from his condenser very easily, he being in a position to see all of the cotton that goes into the bale: with his stencil and platform scales he could weigh and stamp that cotton with grade, weight and his name. so ne would be responsible for grade, etc. That bale of cotton would be accepted by the world by the brand it wears. and not be sampled and weighed by every Tom, Dick and Harry. We buy our fer tilizers, grits, meal and everything by the original weights and grade. regard less of shrinkage, etc., and cotton is the only thing put up in original packages that is weighed every time it chaLjes hands. By adopting this method you would not see cotton thrown around on the ground, but when a man came home from the gin with his cotton in a neat. package he would put it away in his cotton house, because he could handle it without much trouble. He would not mind stacking it up on his front porch. When that cotton is put on the market it could be handled in transit without being torn to pieces by hooks. Now, you will nnd objections to this plan-not by the ginner, he will get a little more out of it: not by the farmer: because be will get millions out of it; not by the spinner, because ne will get what be buys, and not a lot of damaged ;tuff-the objection will come from the man who gets an unjust living between the farmer and the suinner. The kick will come from the one-horse cotton buyer who loads his scales and mis Vrades your cotton the public weighs. who will be thrown out of a job, and probably the compress man. It is hoped by everybody that the south will wake up to some better sys em of handling the cotton crops and ;ave the $40,000,000 thrown away every rear.-L. B. McFaddin. Sardinia. S. C . n Southern Ruralist. Remarkable Cure of Dysentery. "I was attacked with dysentery about July 15th, and used the doctor's medi ine and other remedies with no relief, ,nly getting worse all the time. I was able to do anything and my weight roped from 145 to 125 pounds. I suff ~red for about two months when I was dvised to use Chamberlain's Colic, holera and Diarrhoea Remedy.

'The fact that a charge ranging from 1 cent tc 0 cents is made for tie bottle in which the vodka is sold has gIven rise to a strange business. Bottle brokers. as they are called, haunt the neighborhood of the vodka shops. watching for some thirsty per son who needs the loan of one or twc kopecks (a half a cent or a cent) with which to make the purchase of a bottle of the desired beverage. Perhaps the buyer *gs but six ko pecks and he requires eight to get a bottle of vodka. The "broker" lends him the two kopecks to make up the desired amount, and, after the recep tacle has been drained nnder the vigi lant eye of the broker.- the bottle Is turned over to him.

The late Marshall Field once said that if he could be right 51 per cent of the time he was satisfied. He was talking of investments, and the Field estate at the tine of his death totaled some $43,000,000. Shrewd as Russell Sage was, his ex ecutors found many worthless stocks in his vaults, although they found plenty of others that were not worth less. The Sages and the Fields long ago adopted the plan of the insurance comn panics and the banks, says Invest ments. The one point in it that should be dinned Into our ears thoroughly is that wide distribution is both wise and necessary. No matter how small the sum, it should not all be invested In any onle thing.
