Andrew Kohath Smith, one of

of Fort Mill township, died
at his home here at ip o'clock
Monday morning. He had been
in ill health for several months
having suffered an attack of influenza

entirely recovered though he
was able to appear on the streets
last Saturday a week ago. The
funeral service was conducted
at the home at noon- Tuesday
after which the repiains were
taken to Ebenezer where interment
was made.
Mr. Smith was born in Illinois
but came to South Carolina as a
boy and has lived the best part
of KTs life in York county residing
in Ebenezer until about
ten y?ars ago when he removed
to Fort Mill. He was a successful
farmer and business man.
Mr. Smith was in the 83rd year
age having been born February
1, 1837. He was married on
November 10, 1864, to Miss

Oats for Hogs.
If you have a hog lot that there
is nothing growing in now and
that is hardly rich enough to
grow good rape, plant this lot in
oats, saysR. H. Lemmon, County
Agent of Fail field. Oats planted
for hogs now will furnish excellent
posture from the last of
of May until the last of June.
This will give you fine pasture
for your hogs when other crops
are scarce. Hogs should be
turned on oats by the time they
get in the milk stage. I have
seen excellent results where
hogs wer,e pastured oats and
have also gotten good results
uijocii. niici uic utiLS arc i
harvested by the hogs the last
of June, you will have time to
plant this land in corn and soy
beans, or corn and peanuts, etc.
Oats planted for hogs should
be sown rather thick, for you
don't care anything about the
height of the straw but the
heads (grain) is what you want.
If you have never planted any
oats for your hogs, try some,
for I am.sure they will pay you
well. Don't expect to raise your
hogs at a profit if you don't
plant some grazing crop for them.

IDOLIZED by a nation and petted by
millions. Her appeal is universal.
She belongs to the world at large and
how she travels?oh! of course, not
really she herself, but on the screen.
To-day she is a homeless ragamuffin,
ttrtnorrow a spoiled child of the rich.
Her antics bring a chuckle from the
grouchy and dyspeptic. The key to
ner success lies in "acting natural."
Her pout has made her famous.
Smile with her tomorrow (Friday) at
