The Farmer Who Knows.
Everybody goes to school in
his early life, at the time when
he has little means of knowing
the practical value of the instruction
he receives. Consequently
a great many persons
make small progress in their
common school work and not
until their mature years do they
realize the folly they displayed

tunities.
Rut many even of the persons
who. studied while in school
seem to think that their education
at that time was completed?
a preposterous supposition?and
they grive little thought and make
little effort to continue th^r
education in later life.
The hard-headed farmer is
likely to look with skepticism or
suspicion upon the youngster
whose head is filled with theories
about farming hut whose hand
never knew the callous worn by
the pitchfork or in guiding the
..plow. But some of these young
men who have been brought up
on the farm and who have pur
sued the agricultural course in
college have that rare combination
of practical and theoretical
knowledge that produces what
has come to be termed the
"scientific farmer, " ? or in other
words "the farmer who knows"
and who does not guess.
Most farmers as well as most
other business men need to continue
thtfl* education throughout
life. But that education must
Le specific and practha'. The
farmer has in the farm demonstrator
the teacher educated
especially to help him in his
work.

Don't expect the impossible
of your town and its merchants.
Be sure first, before you complain
of the goods and prices of
home merchants, that you
haven't had a hand in making
it impracticable for our merchants
to handle the kind of
goods you want at the prices you
can pay. Merchants are not
mind readers nor are they blind
to their own best interests. If
they haven't what you want
they will get it for you at as low
or lower price than you can get

to be given an opportunity to do
so anyhow; but if thoy do not
deserve it you will be doing
yourself a bigger favor than you
will do them to deal face to
face with men you know and
that can be held personally accountable
for their promises and
performances. Try this for a
rule of trading hereafter.
"If the money spent for gravel
placed on the streets, for the
past 43 years, had been put in
cement sidewalks, Chester would
today be blessed with about 58
miles of permanent sidewalks" ?

it would be an excellent idea for

Query: Who is the Governor I
after, Mayor Grace. Chief Cantwell
or the Charleston tigers?
Endosres Nr. Nims' Suggestion.
A movement has been started
in this city to secure regulations
calling for uniforms in the public
school. This idea, a brand new
one in connection with public
schools orgauized with a prominent
business man of the city,
who has been giving the subject
much thought and attention.
During the short time in which
the matter has been agitated
much favorable comment has
been heard, and it is likely that
definite steps will be taken before
long.? Orangeburg special
to the News and Courier.
This proposition of uniforms
for children of the public schools
is interesting, but not altogether
new. Mr. Fred Nims of Fort
Mill township, published exactly
this suggestion in the Fort
Mill Times a few years ago, ana
there was favorable discussion
of it in The Enquirer and other
papers. If Orangeburg, however,
is the first county to put
the idea into practical effect,
there will be no effort to deprive
her of due credit.?Yorkville Enquirer.
Next Year's Teachers.
The board of trustees of tht
local graded school has received
acceptances from the corps of
teachers elected for the next
term. Some changes were
necessary owing to the declination
of the positions offered and
I Miss Frances May Milling, of
Rock Hill, will have charge of
the fifth grade; Miss F. S.
Dubose, of Pickens, the high
school, and Miss Fannie K.
Lewis, of Richmand, Va., the
music class. Mr. James D. Fulp,
the new superintendent, is in
Fort Mill making plans for the
coming term and confidence is
felt that the next term will be
a most successful one.

Times Correspondence.
Mr. Sam'l Boyd is no better
at this writing. A goodly 111 m
ber of his neighbors met at his
home yesterday and worked over
his crop.
The little child of J. D. Gibson
remains in a critical condition,
being no better.
There is a new boy at Mr.
James Epps' and we learn that
he has been christened Billy Sunday.
Now, wasn't it an act of
wisdom in him to select the Gold

Now, you Fort Mill people who
have been so anxious to hear
Billy can hear him any hour of
the day or night, perhaps, by
visiting him at his home.
It is quite fashionable these
days for every farm to have a
name, and we have christened
! Dave ^Gibson's farm the "cat
farm." By no means does he
make a specialty of cats, but he
has 14 in stock at this time, and
will increase the number as occasion
demands.
The small grain crop continues
promising, but knowing ones
say it is raining too much for
wheat, and if the rain don't
hold up soon all farms in this
section will have a beautiful
cover crop on them.

Knox Windle and W. M. Wilson
took a pleasure trip to Greenwood
last week. From the
reports, they had a most enjoyable
stay.
If the whole of Europe becomes
an awful and quaking
battle ground, it will not matter
to our farmers, who desire to
raise crimson clover next year.
Some of them have already constructed
clover seed strippers
in order to supply themselves
with seed for the next year.
