Saturday morning 39 bales of F7?rt Mill ruiypil pnlhin nf tlio me summer term ux rviversiue public school, in Fort Mill township, opened Monday morning f? with Miss Louise Dye, of Kershaw, as teacher. A gratifying number of pupils was present for enrollment at the opening of the school. In the list of places at which farmers' institutes are to be held oy the Clemson college professors during the early part of August is included Van Wyek. August 5; Gold Hill academy, August 8, and Pleasant Valley, August 9. Some of the largest cabbage ever seen on the Fort Mill market were brought to town a few days ago by S. C. Faris, one of Gold Hill's prosperous farmers. Individual heads of the cabbage were almost as large as an ordinary water pail and weighed 13 pounds. Nancy Adger, colored charwoman for the Fort Mill Presbyterian and Methodist churches, died a few days ago. Many members of the congregations regretted to learn of the i woman's death, for she was faithful in the performance of her duties. The congregation of the Fort Mill Baptist church is awaiting with a degree of interest the revival services which are to begin in their church on the 24th inst. Rev. Henry Miller, D. D., will come from Greenville to assist the pastor, the Rev. Mr. Hair, in the meeting. The Rev. S. P. Hair, pastor of the Fort Mill Baptist church, and Wendell and Edwin Barber left Monday morning for Greenville to attend the annual meeting of the South Carolina Baptist association. The meetings of the association are being held at Furman university and will continue through the week. Mr. J. P. Stroup, one of The Times' good Steel Creek friends, was in town Tuesday morning. Mr. Stroup is one of Mecklenburg county's substantial farmers and is, of course, greatly interested in the weather. During the last six weeks he has kept accurate measurements of the rainfall at his home and reports 161-2 inches for the month of June and 6 inches up to Monday night for July. As the result of an accidental gunshot wound which he received in the left hand while squirrel hunting Thursday morning. T"1 1 T 1 1 rraiiK Lanasay, a coioreu tarm hand on the plantation of N. L. Bayne, three miles north of town, has lost the greater part of his left hand. I)rs. Prentiss and Kirkpatriek were called in to dress the wound. They found the member so badly injured that amputation of all but the thumb was necessary. W. T. Cranford. a farmer living in upper Fort Mill township, has kept tab on the rains that have fallen in that section for more than six weeks. For the 40 days ending Friday night, Mr. Cranford reports that there have been 32 distinct showers. Many of the rains were light, while others were heavy, necessitating the suspension of all farm work for three-fourths of the time since he began the count. The poll lists for the enrollment of Democratic voters of Fort Mill township who wish to participate in the State and county primaries to be held August 30 are now open and can be found with the secretary, B. W. Bradford, at The Times office, or with the president of the club, J. R. Haile, at the Fort Mill Drug company. The rules of the party provide that all names must be on the list five days before the primary. Richard Bogus, a Confederate veteran who made his home in Fort Mill for several years, is on a visit to this section. Until recently Mr. Bogus had been an inmate of the soldiers' home in Columbia, but voluntarily left the institution. He says that the inmates of the home are well cared for, ^ but he does not like the commandant, Capt. Starling, and thinks that a number of the veterans who are there being cared for should be transferred to the insane asylum because they are feeble-minded and render life unpleasant for those whose mental faculties are not impaired. 1909 crop were sold to Mills & Young by L. S. Nivens. The average price paid for the cotton was 15 cents per pound. 4- ~ C T>: * 1 ~ !S5E5g5a5ga5Hg5S5a5a5a5H55i I MAGILL S Cj Clark's Spool Cotton, |jj Summer Lap Robes, jjj Guaranteed Work Shirts, jfl Good Work Shirts, __ j|] Overalls, 3 Very best Bleaching,..
