Don't Sell Livestock.
The Progressive Farmer urges
the farmers of the South not to
be so eager to sell their horses
and mules, quoting a Georgia
weekly to the effect that experience
shows that these ani
Imals always are higher after a
war than they were before.
The demand created by the
v war in Europe is very strong,
and prices for animals which
come within the very rigid
specifications are good.
The Progressive Farmer says
it is a well known fact that the
earnings of the farmers of any
community are usually in proportion
to the number of horses
they keep. Of course, it is poor
economy to keep horses and
mules to a number beyond those
needed, for idleness for them
means a heavy expense without
any return! It is likely, however,
that did our Southern
farmers use more horses and
mules they not only would inrri?nRP
rViPir (rrnss inonmoa Hnf
their net profits as well.
Handwork on a farm is expensive
labor, and as a general
proposition, it is safe to say,
selling off horses and mules is
bad management.
Crowns and military genius
may bring greatness to kings
and emperors and generals, but
there are heights to which even
they may not aspire. They
cannot edit a country newspaper.
There is no Retting away from
the fact that your business will
not boost you unless you boost
your business. Printer's ink is
some booster.

aide that a re-action was overdue.
The market was more responsive
to buying than to selling
and at no time were prices
under the prior week's close.
At. their best they were 39 to 31
r points over last week's finals
while the close was at a net gain
of 19 points.

' F. C. Hare, poultry husbandman
of Clemson college, is urging
facers and poultrymen in
South Carolina to sell poultry by 1
^veight and riot by the piece or

Predicts Second Flood.
Prophesy of a great tidal wave
soon to wipe %the continent of
North America off the map. except
a fortunate few who will
gather on Lookout Mountain,
was sent to Mayor Thompson by
T. A. Teate of Thomasville, Ga.,
says the Chattanooga Times.
Teate says that he had a dream
and that it was an inspiration i
for him to warn the people of
the inpending disaster. His
letter to the mayor follows:
"Thomasville, Ga., Jan. 17,
1915?To the Hon. Mayor, Chattanooga,
Tenn. My Dear Sir: I
have for some time been considerably
wrought up over a
dream that I had more than a
year ago, and as 1 firmly believe
that this dream was an inspiration
to me to warn the people of
the present generation of a great
deluge .that is shortly to blot us
off of the earth, by a disastrous
tidal jyave, I am writing you, as
vour citv was seen in this rlrpnm
and also Lookout Mountain, and
the mountain was the spot on
which a great" many people were
saved from the great disaster,
This dream has been typewritten
more than a year and it gives
the date of the great volcanic
upheaval in midocean. If you
have any faith in such warnings,
and you want to see this dream
and read it, I will mail it to you,
if you will promise to return it!
after doing so. I am willing for
you to show it to one of your
best newspapers there and if
you and him think well of it and
he wants to, he can let it appear j
in his paper as a warning to your
city to prepare for the event,
that some flesh may be spared to
again replenish the new earth.
Yours very truly.
"T. A. Teate."
General orders for the annual
inspection of the National Guard
of South Carolina have been sent
out to all company commanders
from the office of W. W. Moore,
adjutant general. The inspections
are to begin next Monday
at Edgefield. The inspection
of the Fort Mill company *ill be
held on Friday, March 2& !
Yorl County News Items.
' * (Yorkvillc Enquirer.)
Ed Cowser, a negro boy, was 1
placed in the county jail last
night charged with the theft of 1
i watch, the property of Mr.
W. M. Whitesides of Hickory
jrove No. 2. The watch was
stolen last Wednesday.
Supervisor Boyd, Commissioners
Smith and 9Jackson and
Engineer Miller went out today
to inspect the Yorkville and
Rock Hill road to Fishing creek
with a view to getting an idea
as to the work to be done in
connection with the rebuilding
that is soon to be commenced.
The home of Mr. Hugh Wallace
who lives on Filbert No. 1, was
destroyed by fire between seven
and e*ght o'clock Tuesday night.
The origin of the fire is unknown,
neither Mr. Wallace nor
any of his family being at home
at the time. None of the contents
were saved. The house,
which is the property of Mr.
John Hartness, was insured.
It is not likely that there will
be any large steel bridges built
in York county this year for the
simple reason that there is no
money with which to build.
Asked yesterday if any bridges
similar to that built over Fishing
Creek on the Saluda road near
Rock Hill, would be constructed
this year, Supervisor Boyd said
that it was not likely. Although
steel bridges are needed over
one or two streams in the county
the financial condition of the
county will not permit such expenditure.
