Wants Boys to Raise Pigs.
In a letter received Monday
from A. A. McKeown, county
demonstration agent. The Times
is requested to say that Mr.
McKeown has made arrangements
with several hanks of
the county to advance money to
boys who wish to become members
of the County Pig club, the
money to be used in buying
thoroughbred pigs for the year's
contest. The Savings Bank ul
Fort Mill will care for the boys
of this township who wish to
enter the contest and hav? n't
the money to buy their pigs.
This money is to be paid o; ck
sometime during the next fall.
when it suits the convenience of
the boy. Should the pin purchased
die. then the hank would
furnish mom y for another pig.
The boy would, of course, have I
to pay for both pigs, but would
t o he called upon to do so until
he was able to make t he money
out of the pig itself.
It is the hope and belief of
Mr. McK?own that manv new
members will be added to the
club by the above arrangement
and it is expected that the present
year's work among the boys
will be attended by greater success
than that of former years.

of the First National Rank a
says of the Union Central Life ?
Insurance Company:
"I am oarrvinc hirer** nrdieioc 1
with this company and am thoroughly
satisfied with my con- F
tracts. I have just paid ine premium
011 a $5,000.00 policy and
find that my dividend was about
28 per cent., thus reducing my
premium more than one-fourth.
I believe that the investments
of the company, which are in
farm mortgages, are the safest
and most remunerative in the
country today."
If you are not over M0 years of
