CLEMSON COLLEGE FIELD STAFF VISITS GOLD HILL ACADEMY (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1.) must pay a license of $1 for the privilege of hunting game according to law, the money to go into the State treasury for the purpose of protecting the game, fish and birds of the State. On calling for a vote on the question of a hunters' license, every man voted for the license; none voted against ft. Some few did not vote but these were found to be visitors from North Carolina. The hunters' license has been indorsed at every meeting in the State. It, of course, does not give a man the right to trespass on private property but only to hunt on his own land or on land where he has permission from the owner to hunt After Mr. Rice sat down he was vigorously applauded and the chairman announced a recess for dinner. This was served under the trees and was a bountiful repast. After dinner the crowd again gathered to hear Dr. Barnett talk about live stock and dairying. Dr. Barnett is a master of the important subject he lectures on?one of the authorities in this country. He showed how to select a herd of dairy cattle, how to keep them healthy and how to get best results from feeding with care. He treated at length the subject of tuberculosis in cows and the' need of extreme caution. There is a large per cent, of the cows of South Carolina infected with tuberculosis and these animals should be examined by a competent specialist. He also told how the farmers of the State could and should raise their own mules, instead of buying them from the West. i)r. Barnett also forcibly emphasized the fact that the people of the State were making a serious mistake in letting so much of their cotton seed meal go out of the State to fatten cattle and produce dairy products in other States. The valuable manure was likewise lost. The great problem of getting sufficient humus into the soil could more easily be met by raising more live stock, getting the benefit of the product and keeping the fertilizing material at home. He showed the profit from feeding a cow, even where the feed had to be bought in open market. The grave problem of combatting hog cholera was discussed and Dr. Barnett showed how he now had a serum that has proved effectual in the treatment of hog cholera, the most dreaded disease that confronts the hog raiser. He made a profound impression on his large audience. There were some fiOO people present and everybody enjoyed an instructive and delightful day. Baseball Dispute Results in Homicide. A shooting scrape occurred at Smith's Turnout, in Chester county, Friday atternoon as a result of a dispute over a ball game and one negro is dead and another in the Chester county jail. Howard Huey and Walter Dickey were the principals and the former lost his life and the latter his liberty. They got into a row and began shooting at each other with pistols, Dickey proving the best marksman. Mistake in Initial. Considerable interest was manifested in Fort Mill Saturday over the announcement in a Rock Hill paper of "T. L. Johnson" as a candidate for the Legislature. Mr. T. L. Johnson is president of the Peoples National Bank of! Rock Hill and is one of the j county's largest farmers; but he is not a candidate for the Legislature, as The Times is informed. The announcement was intended iors. u Johnston, evidently, and the mistake seems to have been made by changing the initial letter from an "S." to a "T." Prefers Newspaper Advertising. S4I have never in my life," says John Wannamaker, "used such a thing as a poster, a dodger or a handbill. My plan for twenty-five years has been to buy so much space in a newspaper and fill it up with what I wanted. I wouldn't give an advertisement in a newspaper of 400 circulation for 5,000 posters and dodgers. If I wanted to sell cheap jewelry or run a lottery scheme I might use posters, but I wouldn't insult a decent reading public with handbills." Barbersville Road Improvement*. Recent developments in connection with the proposed improvements to the Barbersville road and the steel bridge which is planned to take the place of the frame structure nov spanning Sugar creek indicate that the county authorities oi York and Lancaster will ere lonp agree on the amount to be expended in behalf of the improvements by each county and that worh will begin in the earlv fall. At a meeting of the Lancastei county board of commissioner; held Monday it was agreed that that county would bear one-fourth the cost of the improvements, the other three-fourths to be borne by York county and certain citizens who are interested in the undertaking. A joint meeting of the Lancaster and York authorities is to be held at the old bridge on the 15th inst., when a final understanding as to the entire matter is expected to be reached. Meanwhile, there is talk of surveying a new road from Fort Mill to the Barbersville section and discontinuing the use of the old road. But this proposal does not meet with the approval of Mr. Osmond Barber, who has agreed to contribute $500 to the improvement of the old road and the erection of a steel bridge. Mr. Barber says that if the new road is opened it will leave his home off the highway. It is pointed out, on the other hand, that the proposed newroad would open for development much territory now almost inaccessible and that it would be the most direct route to Charlotte, not only for Fort Mill citizens but for all traveling the public highway from Rock Hill and the eastern section of the county beyond the Catawba river. It is also pointed out in this connection that if anything comes of the proposal which has recently been made in Rock Hill to divert the $5,000 county appropriation and the $4,000 contributed by individuals and firms for flip iii'/iimoorl I'll'"" K? ...v (yn/^uuvu uii.1 uiiu^c ai Indian ferry to the erection of a bridge across the Catawba, near the Carhartt roller mill, that the proposed new Barbersville road will be extensively used by citizens from beyond the Catawba going to and returning from Charlotte, all of whom will necessarily pass through Fort Mill, whereas the old Barbersville road, it is argued, will not be used for this purpose. Farmers' Congress at Ciemson. On August 31st and September 1st and 2nd the farmers of South Carolina are invited to assemble at Ciemson college for the purpose of holding a roundup institute or congress. There will be assembled at this time at the college some of the best experts along the various lines of farming that can be found in the United States. These men will talk to the farmers and give them the benefit of their experience and study. They have been selected for this purpose not only for their scientific training, but also because they have had a large amount of practical experience in their special line and thus will be able to give practical instruction, in addition to Jthe men from outside of the State a number of the most successful farmers of the State have also been invited and have consented to give their experience for the benefit of their brother farmers. The object of the meeting is for the improvement an instruction of those who attend and all who have a desire for such are invited. It is not a pleasure gathering and while all will be (lone to make the three days pleasant, it is hoped that this pleasure will come from interest in the work. Those who are not interested in the work of the college and institutes and are bent only upon a frolic will make a mistake by attending the congress and are not invited. Strict order will be maintained and ample provision has been made t r% t Itnf nn/1 The railroads of the State have been asked to give special rates for this occasion and have intimated that such will he done. Rooms and beds will he furnished by the college free, hut it will be well for each person to take his own sheets, pillow cases and a light blanket, as the college cannot supply these. Meals will be supplied at the mess hall at 35 cents for single meals or three for one dollar. The college does not expect any profit from these meals and will put the full value in the meals and service. After reaching the college a maximum expenditure of $4 should cover every legiti mate expense?it will hardly cost . any one more than $10 including . all expenses from home and ? return from the most distant ! part of the State. I ' ? r! Three Hundred Electors. J There are now exactly '300 : registered voters in Fort Mill C township, the number having been increased from 283 to 300 ' as a result of the visit to Fort ^ Mill last Thursday of the county registration board.

York's Effective Chaingang. Rock Hill Herald. Mr. E. W. Comer of this city, ! vice president of the State Asso1 ciation of Rural Letter Carriers, has brought to light a great ' compliment that was paid York county at the meeting of the association in Newberry several weeks ago. He states that Mr. Winslow, United States govern; ment road expert, was at New1 berry on July 5, 1910, and ad dressed the State Association of ; Rural Letter Carriers. On . speaking of road building by convict labor or chaingang, he ; took occasion to say that Supervisor Gordon, of York county, had the best equipped and organized system of roadbuilding of any county in the State and second to none that he had seen anywhere. He furthermore advised that any county supervisors who desired to improve their system should confer with County Supervisor Gordon and look at York's equipment and systen of chaingang work.
